ANDRIA HALL, CNN ANCHOR: In just about three hours from now, President Bill Clinton heads home from this week's G-8 economic conference. He's leaving Japan earlier than planned to return to the Camp David Mideast peace talks, which have continued in his absence. CNN's Kelly Wallace now with this wrap-up of the president's trip.</s>KELLY WALLACE, CNN CORRESPONDENT (on camera): This was billed as the first ever development summit, where the leaders of the wealthiest nation, plus Russia, are pledging a commitment to help poor nations obtain access to basic education, information technology and the tools to fight diseases, such as AIDS. The leaders will meet one more time before Sunday morning, and then issue their overall communique from this Okinawa summit. But critics are already saying that the leaders are not doing enough to speed up debt relief to the poorest nations. They also charge that focusing on information technology is the wrong approach when some of the less developed nations don't even have access to electricity or running water. U.S. President Bill Clinton will meet with British Prime Minister Tony Blair Sunday morning, and then take part in what will be his final G-8 working session of his presidency. This is Mr. Clinton's final economic summit, since he will leaving office in January. Mr. Clinton has also announced that he will depart Okinawa a few hours earlier than previously scheduled to return to the Middle East peace talks currently under way at the presidential retreat at Camp David, Maryland.
