U.S. President Donald Trump (R) and French President Emmanuel Macron (L) hold hands during a state arrival ceremony at the White House April 24, 2018 in Washington, DC. Trump is hosting Macron for a two-day official visit that includes dinner at George Washington's Mount Vernon, a tree planting on the White House South Lawn, an Oval Office meeting, a joint news conference and a state dinner.

First France, then Germany. This month, the White House receives two of Europe’s top leaders. What’s on U.S. President Donald Trump’s agenda to discuss with Emmanuel Macron and Angela Merkel? What’s on theirs?

Plus, a historic summit between North and South Korea gets underway and journalists face an increasingly dangerous job around the world.
