European Council President Donald Tusk says the Amazon forest fires are a 'depressing sign of our times'.
Mr. Tusk has been speaking as world leaders gather for the G7 summit in France.
During a news conference, he also said he'll discuss Brexit with Boris Johnson tomorrow:
Tomorrow I meet PM @BorisJohnson. I hope that he will not like to go down in history as “Mr. No Deal”. The EU is ready to listen to operational, realistic ideas acceptable to all Member States including Ireland, if and when the UK government is ready to put them on the table.
