Welcome to Outside Source. Dilma Rousseff is fighting for her life. | :00:19. | :00:28. | |
She's set to be impeached, and stripped of presidency. You are | :00:29. | :00:33. | |
making the extremely nervous. Sad news in the last hour, the death of | :00:34. | :00:38. | |
the actor Gene Wilder, at the age of 83. Starred in several films by Mel | :00:39. | :00:45. | |
Brooks. Roaming calls in France too old for the country's border | :00:46. | :00:53. | |
agreement with the UK. That could see changes in the camp known as the | :00:54. | :01:01. | |
jungle. Kurdish targets attacked in Syria. Kurdish forces are backed by | :01:02. | :01:08. | |
the US, this is making things diplomatically complicated. Analysis | :01:09. | :01:12. | |
from Washington. This is part of a report made after the BBC was given | :01:13. | :01:19. | |
exclusive access to a wind tunnel in California, helping scientists | :01:20. | :01:21. | |
understand how birds fly. I will play you that. In business, we will | :01:22. | :01:27. | |
talk about why Massachusetts may want to change its time zone! | :01:28. | :01:44. | |
Let's start with dramatic scenes playing out in Brazil. | :01:45. | :01:50. | |
The suspended Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff has publicly | :01:51. | :01:51. | |
defended her record in office at her impeachment trial. | :01:52. | :01:54. | |
She maintained that she's been unjustly accused of breaking rules | :01:55. | :01:56. | |
Senators are due to vote later this week on whether to | :01:57. | :02:00. | |
remove her from power - a move she says would represent | :02:01. | :02:03. | |
She denies allegations, that she says are politically motivated. She | :02:04. | :02:10. | |
says the future of Brazil's democracy is at stake. The New York | :02:11. | :02:13. | |
Times reporting with one quote dart. You will all know I am very proud of | :02:14. | :02:32. | |
my acts. I have never been reached myself using public funds. I have | :02:33. | :02:39. | |
not committed budget manipulation in order to benefit. For my own family, | :02:40. | :02:50. | |
or my own benefit. In all terms of office, I have for field, and acted | :02:51. | :02:56. | |
honestly. I will now be tried for crimes I have not committed. | :02:57. | :03:08. | |
Senators will vote, the choice is clear, remove her as president, or | :03:09. | :03:14. | |
reinstate. Not long ago, she had approval ratings of 79%, incredibly | :03:15. | :03:19. | |
high for any president. Fast forward a couple of years, 2015, big | :03:20. | :03:25. | |
national protests against alleged government corruption. By March | :03:26. | :03:32. | |
2016, approval rating down to 7%. The lower house and the upper house | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
of parliament, they voted to start impeachment proceedings. Let's talk | :03:38. | :03:43. | |
to the Latin American editor for the BBC. Seems difficult to separate the | :03:44. | :03:55. | |
politics from the Justice? It is difficult, she reminded the Senate | :03:56. | :03:59. | |
she fought against the military dictatorship, arrested, tortured. | :04:00. | :04:04. | |
Now she is an elected president with 450 million votes. Nobody expects | :04:05. | :04:13. | |
her to win the vote in the Senate. After it was elected, many problems, | :04:14. | :04:21. | |
in the government, any state oil company. That all came together at | :04:22. | :04:28. | |
the same time with the World Cup, expecting what will be done in this | :04:29. | :04:29. | |
event. People are making comments on | :04:30. | :04:46. | |
Facebook, they do not see any way of turning back the clock. The vice | :04:47. | :04:52. | |
president became a complete arrival and opponent to her. He has taken | :04:53. | :04:59. | |
over, people see it is inevitable. She is making a speech for the | :05:00. | :05:04. | |
future of the left-wing party, her party, and the Heritage of President | :05:05. | :05:14. | |
Lula. He is the hope from the party of the left won him to come back to | :05:15. | :05:20. | |
power. He is also facing investigations. Run us through what | :05:21. | :05:24. | |
will happen this week, in terms of procedures. We now have Dilma | :05:25. | :05:31. | |
Rousseff speaking to the senators, cross examination, that will go | :05:32. | :05:35. | |
until the end of the day. Tuesday, there will be witnesses, from both | :05:36. | :05:40. | |
sides, there will be a vote, either tomorrow, late, or Wednesday. | :05:41. | :05:44. | |
Probably tomorrow. If she loses that, she will be removed from | :05:45. | :05:48. | |
office. Not selected for the next eight years. The vice president, | :05:49. | :05:53. | |
interim president, he will serve another term. She will be | :05:54. | :06:05. | |
reinstated, she knows the crisis, she will call a referendum. If you | :06:06. | :06:13. | |
speak Portuguese, coverage of this story three BBC Brasil. Right at the | :06:14. | :06:21. | |
beginning of the hour, we have just heard the American actor, Gene | :06:22. | :06:27. | |
Wilder, has died at the age of 83. Best known for taking the lead role | :06:28. | :06:30. | |
in Willy Wonka and the chocolate factory. And a lot of Mel Brooks | :06:31. | :06:42. | |
films. Most memorably The Produces. His family say he died from | :06:43. | :06:45. | |
publications of Alzheimer's. We look back at his life. No one could do | :06:46. | :06:52. | |
hysteria quite like Gene Wilder. Way over the top, but still very funny. | :06:53. | :06:56. | |
He perfected his comic personality in the films of Mel Brooks. I cannot | :06:57. | :07:02. | |
flourish under these conditions. You are making me extremely nervous. | :07:03. | :07:08. | |
What is that handkerchief? Nothing. Why can't I see? Give me my blue | :07:09. | :07:16. | |
blanket. The pair went on to make a series of films together. In Blazing | :07:17. | :07:27. | |
Saddles, he was the burnt out Waco Kid. Once the fastest gun in the | :07:28. | :07:31. | |
West. Look at that. Steady as a rock. That I shoot with this hand. | :07:32. | :07:38. | |
Acting success led to a career as a writer and director as well. He was | :07:39. | :07:45. | |
not, in private life, a funny man. When I do make jokes, they are not | :07:46. | :07:50. | |
that funny, kind of corny. If I go in public somewhere, the first thing | :07:51. | :08:03. | |
people say... Go on, let's have one. After Mel Brooks, he formed a second | :08:04. | :08:09. | |
partnership with Richard Pryor, as a wrongly convicted pair of prisoners. | :08:10. | :08:14. | |
I hereby sentence you to serve 125 years in the custody of the | :08:15. | :08:16. | |
Commissioner of the Department of corrections. Wow! No, no, we did not | :08:17. | :08:27. | |
do it. It is a misunderstanding. Our lawyer told us to come up. He's | :08:28. | :08:35. | |
joking. We did not do it. Have you got the right case? When his third | :08:36. | :08:40. | |
wife died of cancer, he became a high-profile campaign, along with | :08:41. | :08:44. | |
Princess Diana. Swapping film rails for television, starring in his own | :08:45. | :08:48. | |
series. He will be remembered chiefly for those bulging eyes, wild | :08:49. | :09:01. | |
hair, rampaging hysterics. I am hysterical. I'm in pain. Mel Brooks, | :09:02. | :09:09. | |
he made so many films with Gene Wilder, has already issued his | :09:10. | :09:10. | |
tribute... I'm sure in the coming hours we will | :09:11. | :09:23. | |
see many more tributes paid to Gene Wilder. I want to play you a report | :09:24. | :09:30. | |
from Calais. When the UK voted out the European Union, it was | :09:31. | :09:34. | |
inevitable Calais, a port on the north coast of France would be | :09:35. | :09:39. | |
discussed. It is used by thousands and thousands of vehicles, coming in | :09:40. | :09:44. | |
and out of the UK. Also thousands of people who would like to get to the | :09:45. | :09:48. | |
UK, currently living in Calais. In a camp known as the jungle. The | :09:49. | :09:52. | |
current system means UK border staff check passports in France. Makes it | :09:53. | :09:59. | |
far harder to reach the UK and claim asylum. There are growing calls for | :10:00. | :10:02. | |
this agreement to change. Here is Matthew Price. | :10:03. | :10:05. | |
Where fences and barbed wire stretch along the roads and the railways | :10:06. | :10:08. | |
that lead to the ferries, the trains, and on to Britain. | :10:09. | :10:11. | |
Every day, more are put up to stop people living here illegally | :10:12. | :10:14. | |
But there's only so much a fence can do. | :10:15. | :10:23. | |
Calais' shantytown camp that's known as The Jungle is growing. | :10:24. | :10:25. | |
Many here believe that part of the problem is the bilateral | :10:26. | :10:28. | |
that sees British border guards stationed in France. | :10:29. | :10:39. | |
The president of this region says Le Touquet | :10:40. | :10:41. | |
It's not possible to keep the border here without a new co-operation | :10:42. | :10:45. | |
If the British Government don't want to open this discussion, | :10:46. | :10:49. | |
we will tell you, the Le Touquet agreement is over. | :10:50. | :11:12. | |
Migrants hoping to claim asylum in the UK should be able to do | :11:13. | :11:18. | |
Partly because that's not how the asylum system works. | :11:19. | :11:24. | |
You're supposed to apply in the country that | :11:25. | :11:26. | |
Secondly, I just think it would be a huge magnet to draw thousands more | :11:27. | :11:30. | |
migrants to Calais who would come to chance their arm that they might | :11:31. | :11:33. | |
Mr Bertrand's intervention highlights how important | :11:34. | :11:36. | |
the issues of security, of borders, of migration, | :11:37. | :11:38. | |
He doesn't have the power to change the Le Touquet accord, | :11:39. | :11:42. | |
but the next French President will have that power. | :11:43. | :11:44. | |
Elections are due to be held next year and already, | :11:45. | :11:47. | |
two of the leading contenders for the post have said | :11:48. | :11:49. | |
One of them, the former president Nicolas Sarkozy, | :11:50. | :11:52. | |
He said border controls should be shifted to Britain. | :11:53. | :11:55. | |
The current French President, who recently met the Prime Minister, | :11:56. | :11:58. | |
He says the accord is in the interests of both their countries. | :11:59. | :12:12. | |
But it doesn't feel like it on the roads leading to Calais. | :12:13. | :12:15. | |
Where smugglers block the route so migrants can stow | :12:16. | :12:17. | |
Tomorrow the Home Secretary Amber Rudd will be in Paris | :12:18. | :12:20. | |
to meet her opposite number, and Calais will be on the agenda. | :12:21. | :12:23. | |
One issue during the European Union something to think about. Next we | :12:24. | :12:47. | |
will hear about the plan free trade agreement between the US and the EU. | :12:48. | :12:51. | |
The German economy Minister says negotiations have failed. We will | :12:52. | :12:53. | |
get into the details of that. The safety of patients is being put | :12:54. | :13:03. | |
at risk because GPs are being forced to carry out complicated | :13:04. | :13:06. | |
consultations in ten minutes or less, according | :13:07. | :13:08. | |
to the British Medical Association. In a report published today, | :13:09. | :13:10. | |
the BMA warns that patient care is being undermined when GPs | :13:11. | :13:13. | |
are forced to see as many Our Health Correspondent Robert | :13:14. | :13:15. | |
Pigott reports. Fundamentally the more GPs we have, | :13:16. | :13:59. | |
the more we can spend with our patients and communities, the better | :14:00. | :14:07. | |
the service, that is fundamental. Thank you for joining me in the BBC | :14:08. | :14:13. | |
newsroom, this is Outside Source. The suspended Brazilian president, | :14:14. | :14:17. | |
Dilma Rousseff, has spoken at her own impeachment trial. She is as if | :14:18. | :14:23. | |
she is impeached, it will mount to a clue. Let's look at some of the top | :14:24. | :14:29. | |
stories from the BBC World Service. Use Pakistan's president has | :14:30. | :14:33. | |
suffered a stroke, his state of health is unclear. His time in power | :14:34. | :14:37. | |
dates back to before independence in 1991. Fair to say he is known for | :14:38. | :14:43. | |
his lack of enthusiasm for democracy, human rights and freedom | :14:44. | :14:47. | |
of speech. Officials in Belgium are saying a fire at a Brussels crime | :14:48. | :14:51. | |
laboratory may have been started to destroy forensic evidence. A car | :14:52. | :14:57. | |
rammed through fences then into the building, nine people were arrested | :14:58. | :14:59. | |
nearby, since arrested without charge. New drone footage has | :15:00. | :15:05. | |
revealed the extent of the destruction to one church in Italy, | :15:06. | :15:11. | |
hit by the earthquake last week. You can see the video by the BBC News | :15:12. | :15:21. | |
app. I want to spend a few minutes looking at the Turkish military | :15:22. | :15:24. | |
action in Syria. Now affecting targets held by Kurdish forces. | :15:25. | :15:29. | |
Those forces are supported by America. Turkey is ready driving out | :15:30. | :15:39. | |
the Islamic State group. The operation had US support, the latest | :15:40. | :15:44. | |
move says much more diplomatically complicated. Turkey and the US are | :15:45. | :15:55. | |
in Nato, they are allies. The defence Department has been quoted, | :15:56. | :15:58. | |
saying we want to make clear we find these clashes in areas where Islamic | :15:59. | :16:05. | |
State is not located, unacceptable. A source of deep concerns. That is | :16:06. | :16:09. | |
the Americans. This is the Turkish minister, saying no one has the | :16:10. | :16:15. | |
right to tell Turkey which terrorist organisation they can fight. That is | :16:16. | :16:22. | |
a reference to have Turkey views the Kurdish militia and some of the | :16:23. | :16:27. | |
areas it concerns. This is a response from the US to the Turkish | :16:28. | :16:32. | |
action. The United States is very supportive to their general counter | :16:33. | :16:36. | |
Islamic State activities, everything they did to secure the border, | :16:37. | :16:43. | |
westwards, but not self of it. Nor to engage the Syrian defence forces. | :16:44. | :16:59. | |
As far as the YPG portion of the Syrian defence forces, maintaining | :17:00. | :17:02. | |
their understanding they have of us, and continuing to implement that | :17:03. | :17:07. | |
understanding, to withdraw their forces, east of the Euphrates. The | :17:08. | :17:13. | |
Americans clearly not happy with what Turkey has done. What options | :17:14. | :17:19. | |
do they have in terms of a response? I have talking to Gary O'Donoghue, | :17:20. | :17:21. | |
in Washington. They have been training the Kurds, | :17:22. | :17:53. | |
giving them weapons. Turkey is incredibly suspicious of the Kurds, | :17:54. | :17:57. | |
sees them as terrorists. Suspicious as to what they're trying to do, | :17:58. | :18:01. | |
during a Kurdish areas along the Turkish border. There is an enclave | :18:02. | :18:06. | |
in the West, they control the bits east of the Euphrates River, up to | :18:07. | :18:12. | |
the border with Iraq. The Turks think they want to expand westwards, | :18:13. | :18:16. | |
controlled the whole border. They will not let that happen. A huge | :18:17. | :18:22. | |
problem for the US. If it wants to try and hold this coalition | :18:23. | :18:26. | |
together, involve Turkey, the Kurds, they will have to do an awful lot of | :18:27. | :18:31. | |
arm twisting in the coming days. Looks like it is escalating at the | :18:32. | :18:36. | |
moment. The Americans will have known that by supporting the Kurdish | :18:37. | :18:40. | |
militia, it is likely to put itself on a different side to the Turks in | :18:41. | :18:44. | |
this instance. I have they made the calculation that was worth it for | :18:45. | :18:49. | |
the broader benefits. That is right. This is no surprise, that this has | :18:50. | :18:56. | |
flared up. People have warned of this could happen for a very long | :18:57. | :18:59. | |
time. The difficulty was the Americans were finding it very | :19:00. | :19:04. | |
difficult to find anyone capable of partnering with in the northern part | :19:05. | :19:09. | |
of Syria. If you remember, they tried and gave up, to train their | :19:10. | :19:13. | |
own form of Syrian resistance, Freedom Army. They spent a lot of | :19:14. | :19:19. | |
money, hundreds of millions of dollars, completely failing. They | :19:20. | :19:26. | |
had to turn to the Kurds. After the battle for | :19:27. | :19:38. | |
Kabani, they realise they were trained, they could partner with | :19:39. | :19:43. | |
them. That is why the Americans became involved with the Kurdish | :19:44. | :19:47. | |
groups. Not just the Kurds they are backing, there are Arab groups | :19:48. | :19:51. | |
involved in this Syrian democratic force, put together. The Kurds are | :19:52. | :19:56. | |
the driving force. That is the source of the tension. Turkey has | :19:57. | :20:01. | |
its own Kurdish separatist issue in the south-east of the country. It | :20:02. | :20:11. | |
regards the Kurds as all the same. Let's talk about the European Union | :20:12. | :20:15. | |
and America, the two of them trying to create the world's biggest | :20:16. | :20:20. | |
free-trade deal. The German economy Minister says talks have failed. | :20:21. | :20:27. | |
He's talking about the transatlantic trade and investment partnership. | :20:28. | :20:34. | |
Supporters argue the whole global economy will benefit to the genes of | :20:35. | :20:39. | |
hundreds of billions of dollars. A bigger free market will create | :20:40. | :20:44. | |
economic growth, and deliver lower prices for consumers. Critics say | :20:45. | :20:47. | |
the compromises that had to happen for the deal to work will drive down | :20:48. | :20:52. | |
standards in everything from food safety, to environmental | :20:53. | :20:55. | |
legislation. If you are online, you can find this on the BBC News | :20:56. | :21:02. | |
website. Analysis by the BBC's economics correspondent, Andrew | :21:03. | :21:08. | |
Walker. I am talking to him about whether the deal is in as much | :21:09. | :21:11. | |
trouble at the German economy Minister suggests. It is a matter | :21:12. | :21:17. | |
for all the European Union states,. It is done at European level. If | :21:18. | :21:23. | |
Germany does not want to be involved in the agreement, Chancellor Merkel | :21:24. | :21:29. | |
would be involved. He is an important voice. The fact he's | :21:30. | :21:34. | |
expressing this kind of judgment is a very telling testimony to how | :21:35. | :21:36. | |
serious the political differences are. What is the source of the | :21:37. | :21:42. | |
difficulties? At one level, something we saw a bit off in the | :21:43. | :21:47. | |
British referendum on Union referendum membership. Some people | :21:48. | :21:50. | |
feeling they have been left behind by the whole process of | :21:51. | :21:53. | |
globalisation. Increasing integration. There are also those | :21:54. | :22:03. | |
specific issues, that you mention. The fears about regulation, | :22:04. | :22:06. | |
environmental standards, consumer protection. Also concerns that some | :22:07. | :22:10. | |
campaigners are having about sovereignty. They feel that the | :22:11. | :22:16. | |
Court of the tribunal that they be set up would give foreign investors | :22:17. | :22:20. | |
excessive powers to seek compensation from governments | :22:21. | :22:23. | |
changing their policies. What about the Americans, new president, | :22:24. | :22:28. | |
election in November, will that undermined the pace of the | :22:29. | :22:33. | |
negotiations? It certainly could do. Particularly from Donald Trump, the | :22:34. | :22:38. | |
Republican candidate, expressions of very great concern about some of the | :22:39. | :22:42. | |
trade agreements the United States has made. Hillary Clinton, the | :22:43. | :22:46. | |
Democrat candidate, much more enthusiastic in the past. Her tone | :22:47. | :22:52. | |
has changed significantly. She has expressed reservations about another | :22:53. | :22:56. | |
big trade deal, being done with the Pacific nations, not yet ratified. | :22:57. | :23:02. | |
Ideally, both sets of negotiators would like to have the whole thing | :23:03. | :23:08. | |
put to bed under President Obama, a challenging timetable indeed. I | :23:09. | :23:10. | |
would be surprised if they managed it. You can get Andrew's analysis | :23:11. | :23:18. | |
online. I want to talk about Massachusetts, considering changing | :23:19. | :23:22. | |
their time zone. At the heart of the issue, the biggest city, Boston | :23:23. | :23:26. | |
further north and east than any other big city on the US east coast. | :23:27. | :23:33. | |
Some people think daytime darkness is creating problems. The governor | :23:34. | :23:37. | |
of Massachusetts has approved a study looking at the pros and cons | :23:38. | :23:40. | |
of shifting the state one hour forward. Let's bring in Michelle in | :23:41. | :23:46. | |
New York, covering the story. I don't quite get it. Your city also | :23:47. | :23:51. | |
gets dark in the winter. New York are not asking to change the time. | :23:52. | :23:57. | |
What is going on? That is part of what this study looks at. The | :23:58. | :24:03. | |
governor has approved essentially, for lawmakers to start looking as to | :24:04. | :24:08. | |
whether there are economic benefits for not switching clocks back one | :24:09. | :24:14. | |
hour, when it comes to winter. The idea mornings with state like | :24:15. | :24:19. | |
longer, you would have more time at the end of your day. No more walking | :24:20. | :24:25. | |
at home in darkness. If you are in Boston, it gets dark at 4pm in the | :24:26. | :24:29. | |
winter time. That is what is being discussed. Confusion, if you do | :24:30. | :24:37. | |
this, alone, what happens to the rest of the eastern seaboard? Rhode | :24:38. | :24:42. | |
Island, New York. Would there be an hour time difference? Depending | :24:43. | :24:49. | |
where you travel up and down the coast? Some of the issues that have | :24:50. | :24:57. | |
come up again. Remains to be seen whether there is an economic | :24:58. | :25:01. | |
argument. There would be a period of time where Boston with the four | :25:02. | :25:06. | |
hours behind Europe, rather than five? That is correct. All sort of | :25:07. | :25:12. | |
talk, would this help the state retain more of its college | :25:13. | :25:16. | |
graduates? Apparently there was a study done several years ago that | :25:17. | :25:24. | |
showed, compared to other states, graduates tend to leave the state, | :25:25. | :25:28. | |
go elsewhere. Part of the argument made in one editorial in a local | :25:29. | :25:34. | |
paper, perhaps if the clock change did not happen, maybe students would | :25:35. | :25:45. | |
stick around. There is no proof that the reason they are leaving hands to | :25:46. | :25:48. | |
do with the daylight. We will wait and see. At the summer is drawing to | :25:49. | :25:52. | |
an end, in the forefront of many people's mine. Thanks for that. I | :25:53. | :25:58. | |
will be back with you in the BBC newsroom in a couple of hours. | :25:59. | :26:07. | |
For most of us, back to work tomorrow after the bank holiday | :26:08. | :26:13. | |
weekend. This is what we have to look forward to. Dry and warm | :26:14. | :26:20. | |
weather, in the north, more clout and breeze. Some rain | :26:21. | :26:21. |
