Hello, I'm Ros Atkins, this is Outside Source. | :00:09. | :00:13. | |
It is an hour of international news live here in the BBC newsroom. We | :00:14. | :00:18. | |
can access all the latest information coming into us. We can | :00:19. | :00:21. | |
start in Denmark. Its parliament has just approved | :00:22. | :00:22. | |
new measures which allow the confiscation of valuables | :00:23. | :00:24. | |
from asylum seekers to pay Brazil is going to deploy over | :00:25. | :00:26. | |
200,000 soldiers in the fight Apple's latest sales figures | :00:27. | :00:31. | |
are out in a few hours. Investors are worried and it's | :00:32. | :00:41. | |
to do with the iPhone. Young people are thought to be | :00:42. | :00:55. | |
spending more time online than watching television. That is | :00:56. | :00:57. | |
according to new research the BBC has been looking at. We will get | :00:58. | :01:02. | |
into that in more detail. On yesterday's programme I played to | :01:03. | :01:07. | |
the US Treasury accusing Vladimir Putin of beer and corrupt. | :01:08. | :01:08. | |
And the Kremlin has responded to the US treasury's claim - | :01:09. | :01:12. | |
in a BBC documentary - that Vladimir Putin is corrupt. | :01:13. | :01:30. | |
The Danish parliament has passed a new law that will allow them | :01:31. | :01:33. | |
to confiscate valuables from asylum seekers. | :01:34. | :01:41. | |
If their value comes to over 10,000 kroner, just over ?1000, then those | :01:42. | :01:52. | |
valuables can be confiscated. Let's begin by playing you this report | :01:53. | :01:54. | |
which is just coming from Copenhagen. Denmark's door is still | :01:55. | :02:01. | |
open. But only just. Today, Danish MPs approved a plan to | :02:02. | :02:14. | |
deter others. We are simply asking that advertise | :02:15. | :02:20. | |
the asylum seekers if they come within a means to pay for themselves | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
than following the same rules as for Danish citizens, wishing to be an | :02:25. | :02:28. | |
unemployment benefits, if you can pay for yourself then you should pay | :02:29. | :02:32. | |
for your supper for the Danish welfare system doesn't. | :02:33. | :02:36. | |
The Danish authorities can now confiscate money and valuables worth | :02:37. | :02:40. | |
more than ?1000 from asylum seekers but not wedding rings or eight is of | :02:41. | :02:44. | |
sentimental value and if a refugee is granted asylum he or she must | :02:45. | :02:47. | |
wait three years before other family members can try to join them. | :02:48. | :02:54. | |
They are's wife and two of his children are still in Syria. | :02:55. | :03:00. | |
This isn't fair, he tells us. This is difficult. They don't want to | :03:01. | :03:04. | |
help people. They just want to help the Government. | :03:05. | :03:17. | |
Europe's leaders struggle for solutions, the Danish Daugherty say | :03:18. | :03:23. | |
they are overwhelmed. The student volunteers teach Danish to refugees. | :03:24. | :03:28. | |
I'm a bit scared actually about the rhetoric used because I think it | :03:29. | :03:35. | |
tends to overlook the fact that these people are in fact human | :03:36. | :03:37. | |
beings. The UN has warned the war's law | :03:38. | :03:44. | |
could fuel xenophobia. Other countries have the power to seize | :03:45. | :03:48. | |
assets. In practice it rarely happens. No one is sure how or it | :03:49. | :03:51. | |
will work it. For the Danish Government today was | :03:52. | :03:55. | |
all about sending a clear signal to would-be asylum seekers. But at the | :03:56. | :04:00. | |
same time they have sent a strong message to Brussels as well. When it | :04:01. | :04:04. | |
comes to the refugee crisis, Denmark, like a growing number of | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
other EU member states, longer trusts Europe to protect its | :04:09. | :04:10. | |
national interests. Thanks for your time. This is the | :04:11. | :04:25. | |
new Government, so is this new policy popular? | :04:26. | :04:31. | |
Well, I would not college popular at all. There was a fierce debate as | :04:32. | :04:36. | |
Parliament today. And we have had a few weeks of a lot of debate on | :04:37. | :04:43. | |
this. But it was supported in Government. The three biggest | :04:44. | :04:50. | |
parties did and vote yes. So they also acknowledge that it has been | :04:51. | :04:56. | |
hard and it has not been easy for the politicians about this through. | :04:57. | :05:00. | |
Some of your European partners may have reservations about these | :05:01. | :05:04. | |
measures. Do you think your Government is concerned about acting | :05:05. | :05:08. | |
as one in Europe? I do think that is the policy. Our | :05:09. | :05:14. | |
Foreign Minister did say today after the vote that he was sad because of | :05:15. | :05:25. | |
the image that's Denmark has, and the attention Denmark has gotten | :05:26. | :05:30. | |
because of this page. But I do think the Government still supports a | :05:31. | :05:40. | |
corporate way to do with this issue. I'm interested that you mentioned | :05:41. | :05:43. | |
image because I was doing a Facebook live stream earlier got thousands of | :05:44. | :05:47. | |
comments and lots of people were comparing these measures with | :05:48. | :05:50. | |
measures that happened and knots in Germany. I'm not saying that that | :05:51. | :05:53. | |
comparison is correct, but this would be doing Denmark's repetition | :05:54. | :06:01. | |
abroad any favours will it? -- Nazi Germany. It won't that has | :06:02. | :06:05. | |
been big concern amongst these people as well. We tend to see | :06:06. | :06:11. | |
ourselves as someone who likes to deal with issues within Europe and | :06:12. | :06:20. | |
be supportive of people in need so a lot of people are concerned about | :06:21. | :06:23. | |
how people are going to look at Denmark now. | :06:24. | :06:26. | |
A good question about the practicalities now that this law has | :06:27. | :06:30. | |
been passed. When an asylum seeker arrives what actually happens? Who | :06:31. | :06:33. | |
is the pattern research is their pockets and searches through their | :06:34. | :06:36. | |
backs? That is the police. This bill means | :06:37. | :06:42. | |
that the police are now allowed to search asylum seekers for valuables | :06:43. | :06:47. | |
and they can confiscate valuables that are worth more than ?1000. | :06:48. | :06:53. | |
Except as we were told, things of sentimental value. Whether it is | :06:54. | :06:57. | |
going to happen, that's a different story. And a lot of the critics of | :06:58. | :07:03. | |
this bill say it is more symbolic bill that aims to make asylum | :07:04. | :07:10. | |
seekers choose to go to a different country rather than Denmark to seek | :07:11. | :07:16. | |
asylum. That it is mostly to scare people away. | :07:17. | :07:19. | |
Thank you for your help. We appreciated. Live from Copenhagen | :07:20. | :07:24. | |
from DDR news. Let's stay with the story because | :07:25. | :07:28. | |
the Danes have taken action today. Several other European Union states | :07:29. | :07:33. | |
have also acted. They're going to extend temporary border controls. In | :07:34. | :07:37. | |
some cases for as long as two years. This is going to have huge | :07:38. | :07:41. | |
ramifications for the deal that allows freedom of movement between a | :07:42. | :07:45. | |
long list of European countries. Not the UK, by the way. If we look at | :07:46. | :07:49. | |
one of the most common routes into Europe from migrants to take, coming | :07:50. | :07:54. | |
from Turkey and into greased and further north, the consequence of | :07:55. | :07:59. | |
this route has been that Hungary has fenced off its borders. Other | :08:00. | :08:04. | |
countries have imposed increased border controls at one time or | :08:05. | :08:12. | |
another. This is definitely not the plan. Europe was personally fighting | :08:13. | :08:15. | |
a unified approach to this crisis. I been talking to someone in Brussels | :08:16. | :08:21. | |
but why that is proving so elusive. European countries have the right to | :08:22. | :08:26. | |
formulate these sorts of policies themselves but exactly what you say | :08:27. | :08:29. | |
about countries taking unilateral action is what is worrying people | :08:30. | :08:34. | |
here at the European Commission. Because that is what they saying | :08:35. | :08:39. | |
they absolutely do not want to see because they believe that that will | :08:40. | :08:46. | |
make finding a solution to the whole refugee, migrant crisis much much | :08:47. | :08:52. | |
harder. Now, this particular step, I think, is interesting because it | :08:53. | :08:57. | |
follows in a sort of pattern as you indicate, with countries toughening | :08:58. | :09:03. | |
up but also, I think, importantly, it is not just what they're doing | :09:04. | :09:08. | |
internally but trying to send atop a message to try deter people who | :09:09. | :09:12. | |
might be willing to might be setting out on his journeys to reach | :09:13. | :09:20. | |
European destinations. So, in this instance, Denmark. We've also seen | :09:21. | :09:24. | |
Austria saying it wants a cap on the number of refugees it is prepared to | :09:25. | :09:26. | |
take it will institute that this year. One of those are sending a | :09:27. | :09:31. | |
message down the line to try to say to people, don't set out in his | :09:32. | :09:35. | |
journeys on the first place. We've seen some temporary border | :09:36. | :09:38. | |
controls extended today. A tweet from the Independent assaying the | :09:39. | :09:43. | |
agreement mother free movement Sony Europe is on the brink of collapse | :09:44. | :09:47. | |
because of these border controls. Is that overstating it? | :09:48. | :09:53. | |
I think that is a little strong. What has happened today is that the | :09:54. | :09:58. | |
countries that have already had some temporary controls in place have | :09:59. | :10:04. | |
those lasting until May. They are in place until six months is up and | :10:05. | :10:09. | |
they've asked the European Commission here to do the | :10:10. | :10:13. | |
preparatory work to extend those controls for another up to 18 | :10:14. | :10:19. | |
months. Now, that will only happen if and when the commission carries | :10:20. | :10:24. | |
out, and it is carrying out, and assessment of what is happening at | :10:25. | :10:30. | |
the external borders with Greece, is that situation presenting a threat | :10:31. | :10:37. | |
to public order, to public policy within the EU? Then it could | :10:38. | :10:40. | |
recommend an extension but remember these measures that RM plays are | :10:41. | :10:44. | |
partial. There are checks and migrants and spot checks on some the | :10:45. | :10:47. | |
book Crossing Borders and they are a little top in some places than | :10:48. | :10:50. | |
others but these are only six out of more than 20 you. | :10:51. | :10:54. | |
We started getting reports of an active shooter. | :10:55. | :11:00. | |
An "active shooter" was reported at a San Diego military hospital | :11:01. | :11:03. | |
on Tuesday, the facility said on its | :11:04. | :11:05. | |
Helicopters were rushed to the scene, police as well as you would | :11:06. | :11:14. | |
expect. It was all surrounding one reasonably sized naval medical | :11:15. | :11:18. | |
Centre wish can see there. Butler shuts down in response to specific | :11:19. | :11:23. | |
reports that three shots had been heard in the building. We also got | :11:24. | :11:28. | |
this Facebook post from the hospital saying, an active shooter just been | :11:29. | :11:31. | |
reported and has advised everyone inside the building run, hide fight. | :11:32. | :11:38. | |
The good news is it doesn't look like anything actually happen. Our | :11:39. | :11:45. | |
LA correspondence is no response of injuries are evidence of gunfire | :11:46. | :11:47. | |
after shots were heard at a US Naval hospital. That is good news. Run's | :11:48. | :11:57. | |
president is in Europe. He has got a long shopping list for his newly | :11:58. | :12:00. | |
opened economy. We're going to find out exactly what the highest | :12:01. | :12:03. | |
priorities are. He's the lives at the moment but he is going to be | :12:04. | :12:08. | |
going to France as well. We are running through his itinerary. The | :12:09. | :12:18. | |
British paedophile who filmed in self abusing young girls in the | :12:19. | :12:21. | |
Philippines has been jailed for 19 and a half years. Trevor Monk of | :12:22. | :12:28. | |
Kent, admitted late 18 charges including sexual assault of a child | :12:29. | :12:33. | |
under 13. The former head of the police's child text notation and | :12:34. | :12:38. | |
protection Centre says children are safe at night. | :12:39. | :12:42. | |
I, amongst others, often criticised pleasing for its lack of confidence | :12:43. | :12:47. | |
at times but here is a fabulous piece of work involving local police | :12:48. | :12:54. | |
forces. Two of the child election team called on a suspect in 2012, | :12:55. | :12:59. | |
they began to pool a digital thread that led the whole way of the | :13:00. | :13:03. | |
Philippines. The National Crime Agency and their international | :13:04. | :13:06. | |
partners have helped make children safer tonight because lots of | :13:07. | :13:09. | |
predators when they watch this realise it doesn't matter how many | :13:10. | :13:12. | |
years it takes, there are people out there who will track you down, find | :13:13. | :13:25. | |
you and hold you to account. We live in the BBC newsroom. Our | :13:26. | :13:29. | |
lead story is that Denmark has just approved new measures which will | :13:30. | :13:33. | |
confiscate valuables from asylum seekers to pay for their upkeep. | :13:34. | :13:37. | |
That's look at some other main stories from BBC World Service. We | :13:38. | :13:42. | |
will begin with Malaysia's Prime Minister being cleared of | :13:43. | :13:44. | |
corruption. The Attorney General's Office ruled that a payment of | :13:45. | :13:51. | |
nearly $700 million to his bank account was a personal donation from | :13:52. | :13:55. | |
the Saudi royal family. BBC Arabic has the details on that story. A | :13:56. | :13:59. | |
run's president has met the Pope at the Vatican and was asked to work | :14:00. | :14:02. | |
with other countries to promote peace in the Middle East. There | :14:03. | :14:07. | |
remind many believe that Iran binds militant groups. These pictures from | :14:08. | :14:14. | |
the BBC news app that shows huge waves crashing into the coast of | :14:15. | :14:17. | |
Chile. That is a police vehicle being tipped over. The present site | :14:18. | :14:23. | |
was rescued and was OK. This was caused by the weather phenomenon. -- | :14:24. | :14:29. | |
the person inside was rescued. We're going to talk about a number | :14:30. | :14:34. | |
of business stories now. Beginning with uranium President's tour of | :14:35. | :14:39. | |
Europe this week. -- the Iranians president. In the museum are a | :14:40. | :14:47. | |
number of statues and some of them are renewed. They had a bit of an | :14:48. | :14:51. | |
issue on what to do with that. This was the solution that they came up | :14:52. | :14:56. | |
with. Now you see them, now you don't. You would never guess what is | :14:57. | :15:03. | |
behind those boxes. That was to avoid offending the Iranian | :15:04. | :15:05. | |
president. Italy chose not to serve wine at the official meals. He is | :15:06. | :15:11. | |
going to France next and the French have refused to do this. This trip | :15:12. | :15:15. | |
is not about seeing museums or drinking wine, it is about huge | :15:16. | :15:22. | |
business deals. He was the lowdown. -- here is the lowdown. | :15:23. | :16:26. | |
I'm pretty sure the music on that report is that track, What Is Love? | :16:27. | :16:34. | |
I wanted to reclaim whether slashed up a couple of minutes ago. Apple | :16:35. | :16:38. | |
has not released its quarterly figures and the reason we are so | :16:39. | :16:43. | |
interested in this, I mean we're always interested in Apple because | :16:44. | :16:45. | |
of its scale and importance, investors are showing signs of being | :16:46. | :16:49. | |
worried not because they don't think profits will be announced but paper | :16:50. | :16:52. | |
looking at longer-term projections for iPhone sales and they are | :16:53. | :16:57. | |
concerned. We will go live as soon as these figures come out and get a | :16:58. | :17:03. | |
full analysis of it. In the meantime, another important story | :17:04. | :17:08. | |
from the states. It concerns Flint in Michigan and the fact that the | :17:09. | :17:13. | |
city's water has become contaminated with lead. People are drinking | :17:14. | :17:17. | |
portal quarter, even a state emergency was declared. The core | :17:18. | :17:21. | |
problem was that old pipes have corroded after a water supply was | :17:22. | :17:24. | |
changed couple of years ago. This gives you an idea of quite how | :17:25. | :17:28. | |
serious the situation is. Here is Walmart announcing... Other big | :17:29. | :17:37. | |
corporations, are old teaming up to deliver bottled water to students in | :17:38. | :17:42. | |
Flint. Let's bring in Michelle to talk about this. When recovered as a | :17:43. | :17:45. | |
couple of weeks back was Michelle's report in Flint that we played. | :17:46. | :17:50. | |
Bottled water, it is going to help. It is good PR for these companies as | :17:51. | :17:53. | |
well but doesn't fix the core problem. | :17:54. | :17:58. | |
You're talking about a huge infrastructure problem. Once that | :17:59. | :18:01. | |
water got into the system, you saw the lead corroded pipe. Even though | :18:02. | :18:07. | |
Flint has now taken steps to change back to a less corrosive water | :18:08. | :18:10. | |
source, the pipes are still damaged and the city and emergency workers | :18:11. | :18:15. | |
are all now frantically trying to figure out how badly those pipes | :18:16. | :18:18. | |
were damaged. When we spoke to Flint's measure was telling us we | :18:19. | :18:22. | |
don't know at this point how many pipes are damaged, what level of | :18:23. | :18:26. | |
damage, how long it would take to repair those, whether they need to | :18:27. | :18:29. | |
be replaced completely or just to time those pipes will be | :18:30. | :18:32. | |
sufficiently coated and will become save the game. Those were the sorts | :18:33. | :18:35. | |
of challenges they are grappling with. In the meantime, what do | :18:36. | :18:44. | |
residents do? The family we were talking to in that report you | :18:45. | :18:46. | |
mentioned were obviously already drinking bottled water but that | :18:47. | :18:48. | |
children were still bathing in the lead contaminated water because | :18:49. | :18:51. | |
there was only so much she could do with taking water from bottles. This | :18:52. | :18:56. | |
is where companies like Walmart, Coke, Pepsi, net food but Nestle, | :18:57. | :19:01. | |
they have said they're going to give up to six lab million bottles to | :19:02. | :19:07. | |
local schools to try and help ease the problem. It is simple things. | :19:08. | :19:11. | |
When the girders of remarkable restaurant, anywhere you go, you | :19:12. | :19:15. | |
have to do with bottled water. I get a story like this becomes | :19:16. | :19:19. | |
politicised and we got campaigners like Michael Moore suggesting there | :19:20. | :19:22. | |
are reasons this has happened in Flint. What are their claims? Why do | :19:23. | :19:26. | |
they believe the city suffered what others may not have done? | :19:27. | :19:30. | |
From the moment the water source was switched about a year and a half | :19:31. | :19:36. | |
ago, were talking April 2014 they switched, they switched back to good | :19:37. | :19:42. | |
mag in the September 2015, but the problem was for more than a year, | :19:43. | :19:46. | |
residents have been complaining about problems of the water. Those | :19:47. | :19:50. | |
completes were ignored. That's with the investigation now will centre | :19:51. | :19:54. | |
on. Why were those complaints ignored? It was not just from local | :19:55. | :19:59. | |
residents. A group led the study on the water. They raised concerns | :20:00. | :20:03. | |
about lead in the water. They were dismissed initially. There was a | :20:04. | :20:06. | |
doctor who vowed elevated lead in the blood levels of local children. | :20:07. | :20:10. | |
Which coincided with the point at which the water there had been | :20:11. | :20:15. | |
switched. Those claims initially were dismissed. Why were all of | :20:16. | :20:19. | |
those issues, from people were raising red flags, why were none of | :20:20. | :20:23. | |
those taken seriously? There are several investigations going on and | :20:24. | :20:25. | |
now it is a question of waiting for the outcome of some of those. | :20:26. | :20:32. | |
Thank you for updating us on that. Next I've got the latest report. It | :20:33. | :20:39. | |
is from a major new toy exhibition in London. | :20:40. | :20:48. | |
From a massive drone to the slightly interactive 's storm trooper, you | :20:49. | :20:56. | |
can see all the latest trends at the show but the most interesting toys | :20:57. | :21:00. | |
ear combine both the old and the new. | :21:01. | :21:11. | |
What it will do is tell you how many laps you have done, it will tell you | :21:12. | :21:18. | |
who has won, it will tell you when your fuel is low so we discarded a | :21:19. | :21:22. | |
modern twist to a traditional classic and away. | :21:23. | :21:26. | |
Our retro game makers going to have to do that? Combine the ancient and | :21:27. | :21:29. | |
modern as well? There was a lot of that going around | :21:30. | :21:33. | |
and as long as it can add something in terms of value but the people | :21:34. | :21:34. | |
buying it then we will look at it. We don't tell them what the story | :21:35. | :21:55. | |
is, we don't say it is a boy or a girl, we let the kids create the | :21:56. | :21:59. | |
story themselves and let them decide what the story is. They are the | :22:00. | :22:02. | |
directors, they are ready Steven Spielberg 's. They are the creators. | :22:03. | :22:09. | |
Thanks. If you're watching outside source you will have seen me play a | :22:10. | :22:13. | |
port about Vladimir Putin and it included multiple allegations that | :22:14. | :22:17. | |
the president has used his position to make huge amount of money. It | :22:18. | :22:20. | |
also included an accusation from the US Treasury that Mr Putin is | :22:21. | :22:27. | |
corrupt. The Kremlin has responded to what the US Treasury said | :22:28. | :22:28. | |
saying... The panorama programme carried a | :22:29. | :22:55. | |
claim that Mr Putin has a very expensive yacht. For the first time, | :22:56. | :23:02. | |
young people under 16 are thought to be spending more time playing and | :23:03. | :23:06. | |
socialising online than they do watching traditional TV. It is a | :23:07. | :23:09. | |
tipping point, we're being told. Here Duncan Kennedy. For young | :23:10. | :23:15. | |
people, the box has become a bit about blank. Take the Clarkson is | :23:16. | :23:20. | |
from Bournemouth, now a typical British families who are swapping | :23:21. | :23:26. | |
tallies but tablets. Isabella is 12 and uses her mobile device for | :23:27. | :23:30. | |
social media. TV is much less important. Family movies, will watch | :23:31. | :23:36. | |
it, but other than that usually we don't watch it too much because you | :23:37. | :23:40. | |
got tallies on the phone. Go upstairs and you will find | :23:41. | :23:44. | |
another device in the hands of ten-year-old Rosalie. She's as TV is | :23:45. | :23:48. | |
just not mobile enough. Could you live without telly? Yes, | :23:49. | :23:54. | |
because they don't really go on it much. So I just stay on my phone. | :23:55. | :24:00. | |
Back downstairs, there is yet another device, this time being | :24:01. | :24:05. | |
worked on by seven-year-old Toby who says telly doesn't work. | :24:06. | :24:09. | |
Because you're just sitting around watching the screen and doing | :24:10. | :24:17. | |
absolutely nothing. Well, Toby and sisters are typical | :24:18. | :24:21. | |
of what's going on. Today's report confirms a sea change in children's | :24:22. | :24:27. | |
screen habits. They are viewing three hours online compared to just | :24:28. | :24:32. | |
two hours of television. 60% watch television on a mobile device. While | :24:33. | :24:36. | |
73% now have the Internet in their bedrooms. Millions of people like | :24:37. | :24:45. | |
the Clarkson 's are still watching TV on TV. They recognise viewing | :24:46. | :24:50. | |
habits and devices are now changing. It is a family time together that we | :24:51. | :24:55. | |
do something and like the TV for that but for personal use and think | :24:56. | :24:58. | |
that it is of the drastic tool, it is a great thing for them to have, | :24:59. | :25:01. | |
it's just that we're still learning about it. | :25:02. | :25:06. | |
Today's report says it his online channels like net flicks and YouTube | :25:07. | :25:10. | |
that most youngsters are now watching. So was television | :25:11. | :25:14. | |
finished? Television will never die out. It is | :25:15. | :25:19. | |
too big business. But television makers can respond to the new | :25:20. | :25:22. | |
audiences and what the new audiences want and embrace them in some way, | :25:23. | :25:27. | |
use that interactivity to their then television is going to ride as it is | :25:28. | :25:31. | |
never done before. So it may be too early to sound the | :25:32. | :25:36. | |
TV alarm bells yet. But for young people, the hearts does now seem to | :25:37. | :25:42. | |
be in a different place. Let me quickly have a look about the | :25:43. | :25:51. | |
Mac at the screen. We will be looking at the race for the | :25:52. | :25:55. | |
Democratic nomination and also the search for someone who has won a lot | :25:56. | :25:57. | |
of money here in the | :25:58. | :25:58. |
