:00:15. > :00:17.Vladimir Putin tells David Cameron the rebels lack basic human values,

:00:17. > :00:27.as the Prime Minister insists Britain and Russia can work

:00:27. > :00:31.together. We can overcome these differences if we recognise we share

:00:31. > :00:35.some fundamental aims, to end the conflict, to stop Syria breaking

:00:35. > :00:37.apart, to let the Syrian people choose who governs them.

:01:18. > :01:23.Good evening. Russia's president Vladimir Putin has warned the West

:01:23. > :01:26.not to supply arms to Syrian rebels. Speaking at Downing Street after

:01:26. > :01:29.talks with David Cameron - and ahead of the G8 summit in Northern Ireland

:01:30. > :01:33.- Mr Putin said the behaviour of the rebels was inconsistent with basic

:01:33. > :01:37.human values. Mr Cameron acknowledged that Russia and Britain

:01:37. > :01:46.have disagreements over Syria - but said the two could work together.

:01:46. > :01:50.This report from our diplomatic correspondent, Bridget Kendall.

:01:50. > :01:56.A moving ceremony in Downing Street this afternoon. Medals for the

:01:56. > :02:04.elderly war heroes who ran the Arctic, voice Twin Britain and

:02:04. > :02:08.Russia jeering the Second World War -- Arctic convoys. Between Britain

:02:09. > :02:14.and Russia. A far cry from the widening chasm between Russia and

:02:14. > :02:18.the West over Syria which is straining relations now. I believe

:02:18. > :02:22.Assad is responsible for tearing his country apart and that to end

:02:22. > :02:29.Syria's nightmare he has to go. New evidence this week of how the regime

:02:29. > :02:31.is gassing its people mixed that clearer than ever. Barely concealed

:02:31. > :02:36.disdain from the Russian president and then he couldn't contain himself

:02:36. > :02:39.or stop how could the West back in opposition, he argued, which

:02:39. > :02:45.included rebels prepared to cannibalise their victims. At least

:02:45. > :02:51.according to one internet video. TRANSLATION: There is always a

:02:51. > :02:55.question, who is to blame for that. I believe you will not too deny the

:02:55. > :03:02.fact that one hardly should back those who kills their enemies and

:03:02. > :03:07.eat their organs, and all that is filmed and shot. Do you want to

:03:07. > :03:13.supply arms to these people? A call from the prime minister to unite

:03:13. > :03:16.around peace talks couldn't dispel the chill in the air. There are very

:03:16. > :03:23.big differences between the analysis we have of what happened in Syria

:03:23. > :03:28.and who is to blame. But where there is common ground is we both see a

:03:28. > :03:35.humanitarian catastrophe. We both see the dangers of instability and

:03:35. > :03:39.extremism. We both want to see a peace conference and a transition.

:03:39. > :03:43.Already the fractured opposition in Syria is relying on weapons from

:03:43. > :03:47.Sunni Arabs in the Gulf. Now they are hoping the United States and

:03:47. > :03:53.other Western powers will offer other heavier weaponry. Assad's

:03:53. > :03:57.forces have been supplied by years from -- years I Russia. Now on the

:03:57. > :04:03.ground they are reinforced by Hezbollah fighters from Lebanon and

:04:03. > :04:06.more Shia fighters from Iran and possibly Iraq, too. A deepening and

:04:06. > :04:15.dangerous rift which is the urgent focus of this year 's G8 summit,

:04:15. > :04:19.taking place in this lochside golf hotel, the rest of the world kept at

:04:20. > :04:25.bay. Thousands of police have been deployed, miles of razor wire,

:04:25. > :04:29.literally a ring of steel. Given Northern Ireland's history,

:04:29. > :04:33.gathering G8 leaders here is inevitably a risk. But it is the war

:04:33. > :04:38.in Syria that is most worrying. G8 summits are supposed to bring

:04:38. > :04:42.together some of the world 's most powerful leaders in a club of

:04:42. > :04:48.like-minded values and interests but Syria blasts a huge hole in that. It

:04:48. > :04:53.is a face-off between Russia in the West -- and the West where they are

:04:53. > :04:57.poised to arm opposite sides. For David Cameron, arriving this

:04:57. > :05:02.evening, the only comfort is that unlike in the dangerous Cold War

:05:02. > :05:12.days, the leaders are prepared to get together in this remote spot to

:05:12. > :05:14.

:05:14. > :05:18.discuss it. Our political editor Nick Robinson

:05:18. > :05:21.is in Enniskillen, where the G8 talks will be held. We have just

:05:21. > :05:27.seen David Cameron arrived and we know he is under pressure from all

:05:27. > :05:33.sides, what is his position on it? It is because of that position that

:05:33. > :05:38.you're hearing the mantra from the prime Minister that no decision has

:05:38. > :05:41.been taken to arm the Syrian rebels. He said the greatest assistance that

:05:41. > :05:47.the Great Britain could give was advice, training and technical

:05:47. > :05:54.support. He has to do that because it is clear the coalition is not

:05:54. > :05:57.agreed on the policy of arming the rebels and many Conservative MPs are

:05:57. > :06:01.not happy either. It is clear there is unhappiness in other parts of

:06:01. > :06:08.society with the Archbishop of York telling radio five live tonight that

:06:08. > :06:14.he is unhappy with this idea. That is why David Cameron is being very

:06:14. > :06:19.careful of his rhetoric, not now, to sound like Tony Blair. He is aware

:06:19. > :06:24.that many people believe this is a civil war and that both sides are,

:06:24. > :06:29.as President Putin put it, as bad as each other. Yet his real view is

:06:29. > :06:34.that this is exactly the mistake that was made 20 years ago during

:06:34. > :06:39.the Balkan conflict, when Britain did very little at first to protect

:06:39. > :06:42.Bosnians and Kosovans. The irony is David Cameron really would like to

:06:42. > :06:52.arm the rebels but hasn't got the political backing to do it. Resident

:06:52. > :06:57.

:06:57. > :07:03.Obama, who could arm them, shows defended his crackdown on my

:07:03. > :07:07.ministers -- the Turkish Prime Minister. Recep Erdogan said his

:07:07. > :07:12.duty was to clear the area. There have been further clashes between

:07:12. > :07:17.police and demonstrators in Gezi Park, where the demonstrations

:07:17. > :07:21.began. The protesters of Istanbul have

:07:21. > :07:25.decided they are not finished. They may have lost their square and their

:07:25. > :07:32.Park, but they have now taken streets and they are fighting the

:07:32. > :07:41.police. Earlier, the authorities cleared away the protesters'

:07:41. > :07:45.campsites in Gezi Park. But this afternoon, Turkey's leader had his

:07:45. > :07:55.own message for the protesters. He told them it was his duty to clear

:07:55. > :07:59.the park. TRANSLATION: Gezi Park is for all people in Istanbul. Parks

:07:59. > :08:04.cannot be an occupation for ever. My patience has run out and as I said

:08:04. > :08:08.to those occupiers during the meeting, if you leave -- either you

:08:08. > :08:15.leave this park or you will pay the price. This crowd applauds his

:08:15. > :08:20.action against the protesters. are with Erdogan until the end, we

:08:20. > :08:25.will stand firm. This support has won the prime Minister the last

:08:25. > :08:31.three elections. Recep Tayyip Erdogan has still got the support of

:08:31. > :08:36.these, his most loyal followers. So he sees no need to change the way he

:08:36. > :08:43.governs. He doesn't appear to have given up his ambition to carry on

:08:43. > :08:48.leading this country for many more years. The Erdogan way of governing

:08:48. > :08:56.has come at a cost. To an older generation, these scenes bring back

:08:56. > :09:01.memories of past decades of social unrest and military rule. But the

:09:01. > :09:06.Armed Forces no longer intervene in this country 's politics. That means

:09:06. > :09:16.that this fight will continue. It may only be decided when Turkey goes

:09:16. > :09:19.

:09:19. > :09:21.The Liberal Democrat peer Lord Rennard has been interviewed by

:09:21. > :09:24.police under caution about allegations he sexually harassed

:09:24. > :09:26.women party activists. In a statement, his solicitors said the

:09:26. > :09:30.peer welcomed the opportunity to refute the basis of the claims

:09:30. > :09:40.against him. The bodies of two climbers have been

:09:40. > :09:44.

:09:44. > :09:46.found in the sea off Anglesey in North Wales. They've not been

:09:46. > :09:49.formally identified but they're believed to be a 48-year-old man

:09:49. > :09:51.from Sussex and a 21-year-old man from Hampshire. They were reported

:09:51. > :09:54.missing last night. A 35-year-old man has been charged

:09:54. > :09:56.with child abduction after a 14-year-old went missing from her

:09:56. > :10:00.home in Doncaster. John Bush will appear before magistrates tomorrow.

:10:00. > :10:04.The girl was found in the company of a man at Euston Station in London,

:10:04. > :10:08.on Friday. A police officer who tried to disarm

:10:08. > :10:10.a man who attacked worshippers at a mosque in Birmingham with a knife,

:10:10. > :10:13.has been praised for his "heroic response". He has undergone surgery

:10:13. > :10:21.- three others were also injured in the attack. Our correspondent Jeremy

:10:21. > :10:26.Cooke reports. Chaos, anger and bloodshed in a

:10:26. > :10:32.residential Birmingham Road. Three men have been stabbed inside a

:10:32. > :10:37.mosque. A suspect dragged into custody by police officers, who know

:10:37. > :10:40.that one of their own colleagues has also been seriously injured.

:10:40. > :10:45.Investigators say a man worshipping at the mosque had attacked three

:10:45. > :10:50.others with a combat knife. Within minutes, police arrived. The drama

:10:50. > :10:53.continued. A doctor, who had been attending press, suffered minor

:10:53. > :10:58.injuries and saw what happened next as the suspect was confronted with a

:10:58. > :11:02.Taser. He started running towards the police officer with a knife

:11:02. > :11:05.committee attacked the police officer, a police officer used the

:11:05. > :11:10.Taser but it didn't seem to work and he attacked the police officer with

:11:10. > :11:15.a knife and the police officer had two stab wounds on his tummy and he

:11:15. > :11:18.was bleeding badly. The wounded lease officer still helped make the

:11:18. > :11:25.arrest. Senior officers say there were many courageous acts here last

:11:25. > :11:28.night. We work of those officers was heroic and the work of some of the

:11:28. > :11:34.people in the mosque assisting the officers was also heroic. I would

:11:34. > :11:38.like to thank people in Washwood Heath Road people in the mosque to

:11:38. > :11:48.thank -- who helped with this incident and who are helping the

:11:48. > :11:52.police with enquiries and who helped to detain the suspect. The suspect,

:11:52. > :12:01.described as a local man of Somali origin, has been transferred to a

:12:01. > :12:05.secure mental health facility. Israel has warned there should be no

:12:05. > :12:07.let up in pressure on Iran to stop its nuclear programme, following the

:12:07. > :12:09.election of the moderate Conservative cleric Hassan Rowhani.

:12:09. > :12:12.Thousands turned out to hear Mr Rowhani make his first public

:12:12. > :12:14.comments since his presidential election victory. He called on

:12:14. > :12:21.people to help him develop the country and preserve its national

:12:21. > :12:26.pride. This report from John Simpson.

:12:26. > :12:34.Enter, blinking in the bright light, the mildly unlikely figure of

:12:34. > :12:40.Hassan Rowhani. A landslide resident at the age of 64 and a man of

:12:40. > :12:43.surprises. For instance, he studied at Glasgow Caledonian University in

:12:43. > :12:50.the 1970s and 90s, and speaks good English with apparently, a faint

:12:50. > :12:53.Scottish accent. The 18 million enthusiastic people who voted for

:12:53. > :12:59.him fervently hope he will bring an end to Iran's isolation from the

:12:59. > :13:04.West. TRANSLATION: I am proud that these great people of Iran thought I

:13:04. > :13:08.deserved this. They trusted me so that I can begin on a path to serve

:13:08. > :13:13.the country, to enhance people 's lives and welfare and preserve

:13:13. > :13:22.national pride and interests. must not forget that it is this man,

:13:22. > :13:32.the supreme religious leader, Ayatollah Khamenei, who is in charge

:13:32. > :13:33.

:13:33. > :13:37.of nuclear policies, and the church, the areas that will decide whether

:13:37. > :13:40.Iran opens up. The White House has been restrained in its

:13:40. > :13:47.congratulations to the President-elect. As for Israel, its

:13:47. > :13:52.prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, was deeply unimpressed. TRANSLATION:

:13:52. > :13:56.Wii and Israel have no illusions. The international community must not

:13:56. > :14:02.engage in wishful thinking and ease the pressure on Iran to stop its

:14:02. > :14:06.nuclear weapons programme. Rowhani is a clever and basically

:14:06. > :14:10.moderate man who knows what people in Iran want. The religious

:14:10. > :14:15.establishment there, powerful though it is, must be nervous about what is

:14:16. > :14:19.happening in Turkey, Syria and Egypt. This election, unlike the one

:14:19. > :14:25.in 2009, went off peacefully. The religious leadership will want to

:14:25. > :14:31.make sure that continues. And John is here with me now. Will

:14:31. > :14:38.the election of Mr Rowhani change the West's view of Iran given its

:14:38. > :14:40.nuclear programme? The 30 years or more, of view of Iran has been...

:14:40. > :14:46.Forgive my voice... Streets full of hate fuelled people chanting

:14:46. > :14:52.angrily. This kind of thing does affect that. There are millions upon

:14:52. > :14:57.millions of people who would like to have a better relationship with the

:14:57. > :15:02.West. The question is that if Iran doesn't shift on its nuclear

:15:02. > :15:07.programme, will the Americans, will Israel, choose to attack Iran? My

:15:07. > :15:12.feeling is that that is a little bit more difficult now that we have seen

:15:12. > :15:18.slightly more humane face in the country. It might be more difficult

:15:18. > :15:25.politically for them to simply move in and bomb it, but we will see.

:15:25. > :15:35.Thank you. Now it is time for the sport at the

:15:35. > :15:37.

:15:37. > :15:41.BBC Sport Centre. Justin Rose is the -- joint leader

:15:41. > :15:44.at the U.S. Open. He made this birdie putt to move to the top of

:15:44. > :15:53.the leaderboard. He is looking to become the first investment since

:15:53. > :16:02.Tony Jacklin to win this major. Luke Donald had been in contention but

:16:02. > :16:09.has dropped to joint seventh. There is live commentary on radio

:16:09. > :16:12.five live. Andy Murray has now won a hat-trick

:16:12. > :16:15.of Queen's Club titles after beating the defending champion Marin Cilic

:16:15. > :16:17.today. The world number two has been recovering from a back injury but

:16:18. > :16:20.the three-set victory was the perfect preparation for Wimbledon

:16:20. > :16:23.which starts a week tomorrow. At Wimbledon they have a roof but at

:16:23. > :16:25.Queen's Club, they have umbrellas. All you can do is wait and try to

:16:25. > :16:28.make conversation. When he eventually emerged, Andy Murray

:16:28. > :16:32.seems determined to channel his frustration and he was quickly a

:16:32. > :16:37.break up. There was a feeling this might be over quickly but Marin

:16:37. > :16:42.Cilic can be difficult to beat. He is certainly a difficult man to lob.

:16:43. > :16:48.He broke back and the match took a sudden change of direction. Don't

:16:48. > :16:53.tell me he has hurt himself. nation's hopes and chins on the

:16:53. > :17:00.floor. He got back up but could not retrieve the first set. The presence

:17:00. > :17:05.of a Hollywood a list is a sure sign that the expectation of Wimbledon is

:17:05. > :17:09.nearing and Andy Murray grew into his part. By now the sun was out and

:17:09. > :17:15.optimism reigns. Murray took control and the good vibrations were coming

:17:15. > :17:19.from his racket. The best shot of the tournament. Pretty soon the

:17:19. > :17:25.tournament would be his. Cilic could not resist and married went through

:17:25. > :17:33.to his third victory at Queens -- and Murray went through. It is a big

:17:33. > :17:36.trophy but an even bigger one awaits.

:17:36. > :17:39.England are through to the semi-finals of the ICC Champions

:17:39. > :17:42.Trophy after a ten-run win over New Zealand in their final group game.

:17:42. > :17:45.The tournament hosts had set New Zealand a target of 170 in the

:17:45. > :17:48.reduced overs match but James Anderson took his third wicket of

:17:48. > :17:51.the day to seal victory and secure a place in the final four. Britain's

:17:51. > :17:54.Cal Crutchlow crashed out of MotoGP's Catalunya Grand Prix but

:17:54. > :17:57.compatriot Bradley Smith finished in sixth place - his best result of the

:17:57. > :18:01.season. Cruchlow was aiming to become the first Briton since Barry

:18:01. > :18:04.Sheene - 31 years ago - to finish on the podium three races in a row but
