ThomasPickering:Relations between the two countries are very complicated at the moment, and the meeting that is likely to take place is a good opportunity to show whether we can change the increasingly deteriorating relationship between the US and Russia.

ThomasPickering:Mr Trump is a difficult person to predict, but I think the North Korean issue is still on the agenda. The issue of nuclear weapons and the procedures necessary to reduce nuclear weapons for the purpose of strengthening the stability of nuclear deterrence is very important to everyone, it must be on the agenda of the two leaders. Neither of them wants an accidental nuclear explosion due to a misunderstanding between the two sides. And starting the process (which they are doing now) would be a really important step forward.

ThomasPickering:I think that in some sense, if Mr. Trump feels that he can flatter a difficult negotiating partner, he will do it. And I think that is the case we are talking about. I think Mr. Trump has completely misjudged the situation. At the G7 summit, his statement upset people, and this did not bring a positive reaction from the American public.

Moreover, Russia has reacted very negatively. This shows that one of Mr. Trump's biggest problems is his lack of foreign policy knowledge, his inability to learn the lessons of history and his seeming complete ignorance of history, and as a result, he sometimes falls into traps or hits rocks without even knowing it.
