BBC World Service - Newshour, G7 War of Words Continues

The German Chancellor describes President Trump's actions as "sober and depressing".

German Chancellor Angela Merkel has called President Trump's actions following the G7 summit "sober and depressing". President Trump retracted his support for the summit's joint communique shortly after departing and called Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who was hosting the summit, "dishonest and weak". Where does that leave relations between the US and Europe? We'll hear from a senior German politician.

Also in the programme: the latest from Singapore ahead of the US-North Korea summit later this week, and - should there be an emoji for an earthquake?
