and bombardment, bombing of various parts of france, took place all over france because if the auria for americans bombed just normandy, that would give germans the belief that the invasion was going to come there. in fact, the french expected it to come farther east than it did. so they had an idea of where it was going to be, but they actually didn't expect it to be in normandy. >> mary louise roberts is our guest. she's history professor at the university of wisconsin at madison. author of the book "d-day through french eyes." that's our focus for the last part of our program this morning is the experience of french norman citizens and the initial invasion of d-day. 202-748-4,000 if you're living in eastern and central final zones that's the line to use. 202-7 202-7 202-748-4001 for mountain pacific. those with french ancestry, french americans, 202-748-8002. particular interested if you have stories of ancestors who lived in normandy or france at the time of the invasion. just reminders of the time line, june 6th, 1944. but the original invasion was postponed the day before. 75 d

what to do they say jews in france are free said by both islamists right wing radicals. is wrong. one group accuses the jews of being on the side of israel and such against the palestinians but. the other group believe that the jews rule the world there could be. made this into a younger. key to some degree. but it's the same major and. both groups want to see the jews disappear. and to dominate and destroy them. but sometimes the paperwork has to wait because so many is eager to hit the streets where the people are. he feels that paris has changed a lot in recent years a number of jewish run stores have closed he says especially in the bond years. and the few that do still exist have military for pretty.

to france. france. macron, chinant was not on the official agenda, but it was certainly a big part of discussions here at the g7. the tradencerned that war that exists now between the united states and china could harm the global economy? if you are, did you talk to president trump about that? are you also concerned that if china's current trade practices go unchecked, that a decade from now, we could be in a very terrible situation? on this subject, we obviously had lengthy discussions. during the session on the world economy yesterday morning, on both subjects. the discussion is underway between china and united states of america, obviously, as we clearly see, creates uncertainty which disturbs markets and investors, and during the negotiations were, will create tensions. we saw this on different stock markets with which we are familiar. now the question is to know what the result of these discussions will be. it was why we considered so important an agreement be found between the two greatest economi

we believe or not and france. but it's not france's role to ensure security in mali. democratic republic of do. that's not france but it's a culture bed here. since 1961 . there there. the united states and this. is so you. there but but what about the efforts put forward such as the algiers peace accord that were signed yeah i'm coming through there are efforts to bring back east by the internet and we think i would have friends i'm coming the people who are in l.t.c. united. nations soldiers. from 19 to 61 today they are there. because of the wealth that is in that fund. the europeans they have nothing though they're finished. what they have to do is to come back and they require a nice. african it fits where they know there is something. moment to go he says the u.n. and what he calls the international community is failing mali what bothers you with this u.n. mission that is helping those that are displaced in areas where the government cannot access. the dollar was a money making business a problem. did a lot. for over. will suffer you see that. the. girl. no i'm

most of france was starving by the end of the war. one french writer said the sound of france was the sound of a growling stomach. and again this is because the germans took most of the produce and most of the wine. there were always things that were buried in order to save them for the liberation, the much beloved bottle of wine. one young man when he met an african-american g.i. brought him up back and dug out his jazz records in order to show him how much he loved american music. it was a great period of great deprivation and continued for another year. the winter of 44 4445 was still quite hard because by then france was largely destroyed. there were towns which the french called martyred. these towns were 80% destroyed. so life is very hard during the war for the french. most people think the french were collaborators, that they lived off of the fat of the land. if you lived in the city it was harder than when you lived in the country because you couldn't grow your own food but the war was hard on the french and humiliating to be

what could france achieve from behavior like this now in the importance of france russia. from the story clearly has been one of the key partners in europe and around the world. who we are. were the allies in the war against germany in world war 2 and next year the french president will come to the celebrations. i would like to thank him for accepting the invitation but our relationship with france says far deeper roots france is also a permanent member of this human security council has a nuclear arsenal and. does play a very important role in international affairs. and the relationship between russia and the you to a large extent depend on that we know what is the decision making process there parts france to support and many issues. particularly on the return of russia to the council of europe has played a role and a major role perhaps even a critical role in that. so i don't think we need any additional evidence that we value our competition with france and again talk about the economy $500.00 companies from france operates in russia i like to assure you that their pre

they issued an order across france because everybody else is occupying france. but what she did admit she was decorated by the french republic, a british king and an american president yet all of that was done in secret so she has remained in the shadows and i would really like to change that. what did she do? how could she be so great? born in baltimore to a well-to-do family her father was a banker they said they had house it was big enough to turn a horse and hitches and it her father who she was very close to was pretty well to do. he married his secretary but the family fortune isn't quite was it were that she would marry well but virginia had other ideas and you will see from the pictures in the book she was a tomboy she was going horse riding and hunting in the floods with her father taking a 12 gauge shotgun. but despite that she did really like animals and one or two occasions went to the school like a bracelet made of live snakes so she was not an ordinary teenage girl. and editor of the school yearbook and the unusual title and the class profit but sh

a world war ii unit that fought in italy, southern france. it is a largely overshadowed unit of a war because it was smaller, about 2500 men throughout the war. it was comprised of three smaller units. the 596 airborne engineer company. 460th air battalion. those three units together made that regimental combat team, which the entire campaign was attaching larger divisions where they were needed throughout the war. we are representing them during their maritime alps campaign in the south of france near the italian border. they were test with protecting the right flank of the main advance of the rome river valley. that came from the operation dragoon campaign in august 1944. the second invasion of france, overshadowed by operation overlord, the normandy operation. both operations were designed to take place simultaneously. they were codenamed hammer and the anvil. fortunately, due to lack of landing craft and aircraft, higher command was unable to have both operations at the same time. normandy would be the more important operation as we know

but this clan was dependent on britain and france winning the war which at this.

the position of france. i would like to remind you of on the i.m.f. treaty as i said earlier like to reiterate it once again here in france. we will take up a commitment you know actual commitment. if the u.s. does go ahead it. does go ahead with these plans then we will deploy them to. unless the us deploys them these missiles in a particular region we will not deploy our missiles there too so far we have not heard any response to it it seems that we are being ignored but i think the europeans are interested in having this dialogue in having that response from the us. would also discuss regional conflicts.

and of course do you stand by france if the u.s. impose a star if. you will respond in kind the law think we need to be. gone from nation specially with our best ally the united states but of course. this is not our initiative this is trade center of struggle but we have to be ready for this but you know and we are ready james president trying got straight down to work upon his arrival here to coffee with president mccraw of france what was your reading of the body language there. well i see the suspect things like that possible escalation of a trade war between france and the us is one of the reasons why president mccraw was very keen to have president trump here we know the u.s. president wasn't particularly keen to come to this but also to have him here 1st and sit down with him before any of the other leaders try and get him on the same page president michel has seen what's happened at previous g. 7 summits he's seen what president trump can do he knows i suspect from reading twitter in recent days that president trump seems to be in somewhat of

people or countries that profit over this situation is france. france. the the why france why i'm coming i'm coming the government and government members. will not tell you the truth about this one. france and once the 2. recall a nice again. the scots. because of a do well on the ground. why do you say that i mean france came to the rescue in 20122013 when there was an invasion of the country at the french forces were not here maybe look. nation wouldn't exist as i now see. i agree with you you see. when you want to exploit. a person. you start by being friendly to him. and. you try to end his 10. his mind and how he's doing. once you have got. all of these. and you ex. what you also have. france stuff they get is in the can. all the money ends up road. or none. but now what is going on what is going on. we believe or not and france. but it's not france's role to ensure security in mali. democratic republic of do. and that's not france but it's the culture bed here. since 1961. they're there. the united says it is sold you. there but what about the effo

france taxing u.s. technology giants. >> i don't want france going out and taxing our companies. very unfair. if they do that, we will tax their wine or doing something else. >> kelly, punctuating another headline from the last week. we learned that president trump spoke to denmark's prime minister by phone friday. the first time speak since he canceled his trip there among the backlash over the interest of buying greenland. what more do we know? >> reporter: well, the president asked about this before he left for his trip here to france. he described it as a great conversation. maybe, peter, that is trying to diffuse the tension. he also earlier referred to the prime minister as a nasty woman for her comments about his desire to buy greenland. maybe trying to tamp that down. denmark is not participating in the g7. the way for the president to send a signal he is calming things down on that front. cancelling the trip for the end of the minuonth is a sore point. and may be good before meeting other leade
