German Chancellor Says Upcoming G20 Will Focus on Climate Change
----------------------------------------------------------------

The warning came as German Chancellor Angela Merkel has said this year's
G20 summit in Hamburg will focus on climate change.

Chancellor Angela Merkel: "The European Union stands fully behind its
Paris commitment, and it will rapidly and decisively implement the
agreement. Furthermore, since the decision by the United States of
America to leave the Paris climate deal, we are more determined than
ever to make it a success."

The White House said President Trump will meet next week with Russian
President Vladimir Putin on the sidelines of the G20.
