:00:10. > :00:24.thanks for joining me on today's outside source. MUSIC Barack Obama
:00:25. > :00:30.receives a ceremonial welcome in Havana, he is the first US president
:00:31. > :00:35.to visit since the commonest revolution in 1959. If we stay on
:00:36. > :00:38.this course we can deliver a better and brighter future for both the
:00:39. > :00:43.Cuban people and the American people. This footage has been
:00:44. > :00:47.released of the moment when a suspect in the Paris attacks was
:00:48. > :00:52.shot and caught. We will show you details of that in a moment 's time.
:00:53. > :00:53.The row over equal pay or otherwise is continuing in the tennis world
:00:54. > :01:05.after Novak Djokovic says that male players should be paid more. And it
:01:06. > :01:07.is ten years since Twitter started, we will look at some of the most
:01:08. > :01:09.memorable ones and look at whether Twitter will be around in ten years'
:01:10. > :01:28.time. It is day two of Barack Obama's
:01:29. > :01:33.visit in Cuba, he met President Castro earlier, both men made
:01:34. > :01:38.statements and they took questions from journalists. Here is what was
:01:39. > :01:44.said. As you indicated, the road ahead will not be easy. Fortunately
:01:45. > :01:52.we don't have to swim with sharks in order to achieve the goals that you
:01:53. > :01:57.and I have set forth. As you say in Cuba, despite the difficulties we
:01:58. > :02:02.will continue to move forward. TRANSLATION: The blockade stands as
:02:03. > :02:05.the most important obstacle of our economic development and the
:02:06. > :02:08.well-being of the Cuban people, that is why its removal will be obvious
:02:09. > :02:19.and is to normalise bilateral relations. I just spotted this tweet
:02:20. > :02:23.from one of the BBC correspondent in American, it is hard not to be
:02:24. > :02:29.impressed with that one, you suspect he was pleased to get it. The next
:02:30. > :02:36.report was from the BBC News editor, here is that report. Somewhere under
:02:37. > :02:39.this canopy of arm bowlers is the president of the United States, the
:02:40. > :02:43.first Lady and their two daughters. This was meant to be a walkabout to
:02:44. > :02:47.meet the people, not dodge the puddles. They can solve them was
:02:48. > :02:51.caught as they entered the National Cathedral. Then he spoke to an
:02:52. > :02:55.American network. The time is right, obviously our intention has always
:02:56. > :03:01.been to get the ball rolling, knowing that change wasn't going to
:03:02. > :03:07.happen overnight. But what we have already seen, is the reopening of
:03:08. > :03:11.the embassy, and although we still have significant differences around
:03:12. > :03:19.human rights, and individual liberties inside of Cuba, we felt
:03:20. > :03:23.that this now would maximise our ability to accomplish more change.
:03:24. > :03:27.But it is going to be anything but plain sailing, it may only be 90
:03:28. > :03:32.miles from here to the US coast but there is a gulf on a range of
:03:33. > :03:34.issues. This is not quite the weather that the White House had
:03:35. > :03:39.anticipated when they said they would come to Cuba, the atmospherics
:03:40. > :03:42.remain extremely difficult. Administration officials say that
:03:43. > :03:51.there are still big disagreements between the two sides that have not
:03:52. > :03:54.been resolved. Not that that was on show as the two president stood to
:03:55. > :04:00.attention while a Cuban military band played US national anthem, a
:04:01. > :04:04.remarkable image in of itself. But with the ceremonial over, there was
:04:05. > :04:08.much to discuss. The US wanted to talk about human rights and freedom
:04:09. > :04:14.of expression, the Cuban say they will take no lectures from the US
:04:15. > :04:19.while Guantanamo Bay is open. Big differences but in a relationship
:04:20. > :04:25.that has been transformed. And this is also about President Obama's
:04:26. > :04:27.legacy, with the Middle East in turmoil, the normalisation of
:04:28. > :04:31.relations in Cuba he will claim has a foreign policy success which is
:04:32. > :04:41.why that these images will be for the scrapbook. Also for the BBC is
:04:42. > :04:46.Laura Trevelyan, let us go live to her on outside source. In his report
:04:47. > :04:49.he was talking about the differences between the two countries, but is it
:04:50. > :04:57.primarily about stating how far they have come? I think it is about both,
:04:58. > :05:03.and in the press conference, that the two men just had, which by the
:05:04. > :05:06.way was historic by Cuban standards, they made public statements and
:05:07. > :05:10.there was a bit of drama beforehand about whether they would take
:05:11. > :05:13.questions and they both did. President Castro and President Obama
:05:14. > :05:18.so that was fascinating in of itself. Both men talked about the
:05:19. > :05:23.changes between their two countries in a way that was positive. But both
:05:24. > :05:28.men talked about what role Castro called the profound differences,
:05:29. > :05:33.what President Obama referred to as the irritant and the differences of
:05:34. > :05:38.course are the attitude towards democracy and human rights. Cuba is
:05:39. > :05:42.a 1-party state, it doesn't have democratic elections. That is the
:05:43. > :05:48.way it has been since the revolution in 1959. The US says that Cuba has a
:05:49. > :05:52.poor record on human rights, one independent group has said that
:05:53. > :05:57.since January, 1400 activists have been detained by the Cuban
:05:58. > :06:01.government. President Obama talking about how the US would continue to
:06:02. > :06:05.speak out on the importance of democracy, is human rights and
:06:06. > :06:09.freedom of expression and role Castro effectively accusing the US
:06:10. > :06:16.of double standards, saying that human rights have been politicised,
:06:17. > :06:22.and that the Cubans regard education and health as things that they could
:06:23. > :06:27.not be. And they will sit down tonight to a state dinner. You are
:06:28. > :06:31.normally based in Washington, DC and if you had travelled to the
:06:32. > :06:36.Caribbean, say the Bahamas, you would see US culture everywhere. Can
:06:37. > :06:44.you see any evidence of US culture starting to influence Cuba since
:06:45. > :06:48.relations were restored? It is a very interesting question, talking
:06:49. > :06:53.to young Cubans. What everybody does is they download American movies, if
:06:54. > :06:57.they can get hold of a memory stick that is what they will do, and you
:06:58. > :07:01.will watch the latest American movie and you will hope that someone has
:07:02. > :07:05.brought it back from the States. But there are no overt signs of American
:07:06. > :07:10.culture. In fact one of the most interesting things I have found is
:07:11. > :07:14.how much people want Internet access and how absolutely terrible the
:07:15. > :07:18.Internet is. If you can save the Internet is American, some of the
:07:19. > :07:22.biggest tech companies are American and Google has been saying that they
:07:23. > :07:27.will try and improve Cuban access to the Internet but it is fascinating.
:07:28. > :07:32.One of the changes that has come about in nations between the US and
:07:33. > :07:36.Cuba is that they, the Cubans are now providing it by Wi-Fi hotspots
:07:37. > :07:39.and it is not cheap or good Internet and you get kicked out all of the
:07:40. > :07:43.time. Young people say that they want to be online and talking to
:07:44. > :07:48.their friends, knowledge is power as one young Cubans said to me. That to
:07:49. > :07:53.me has been the most striking thing, something that we take granted for
:07:54. > :07:59.the West, here is very restricted and so longed. White please spend a
:08:00. > :08:03.bit longer talking about that press conference, we see President Obama
:08:04. > :08:07.answering questions all of the time. What sort of questions were asked of
:08:08. > :08:17.President Castro and how did he respond? He was asked about where is
:08:18. > :08:26.Cuba going? That was a question from a prominent American journalist, he
:08:27. > :08:29.speaks in a very cryptic manner. It is fascinating to see and a lot of
:08:30. > :08:33.that was foreshadowed by watching Cuban state TV which I have been
:08:34. > :08:37.watching the last couple of mornings, whether coverage is very
:08:38. > :08:42.respectful but they also use this chance to get across things where
:08:43. > :08:51.they'd disagree with the US. For example, Guantanamo Bay, that
:08:52. > :08:53.President Castro raised, just off Cuba, President Castro called it
:08:54. > :08:59.illegal occupation, of Guantanamo Bay and they feel very strongly
:09:00. > :09:03.about it. It is interesting that President Castro talked about
:09:04. > :09:08.civilised coexistence between America and Cuba. This is a phrase
:09:09. > :09:11.that is meant to have great resonance, a new beginning, no
:09:12. > :09:17.longer is the United States a historic enemy as it has been since
:09:18. > :09:21.the revolution of 1959 against an American backed government, so
:09:22. > :09:26.interesting to hear President Castro speaking, and just the way that he
:09:27. > :09:30.phrased things. Thank you very much indeed and I will let you get back
:09:31. > :09:37.to your preparations, hosting a special edition of our American
:09:38. > :09:45.programme. And you will see Laura on world News America direct on outside
:09:46. > :09:50.source, some of you. To Cuba, some extraordinary footage. It shows the
:09:51. > :09:57.moment that the suspect in the Paris attacks, was shot and apprehended.
:09:58. > :10:01.If I just move the video along, there are a couple of steps and a
:10:02. > :10:06.doorway, that is what we should focus on the video, if we go to a
:10:07. > :10:10.different angle and again, you can't see too much and the camera pans up
:10:11. > :10:15.and suddenly, this man starts running down the street. There is
:10:16. > :10:16.immediately a sharp fall this man to stop, she doesn't stop and he
:10:17. > :10:28.carries on -- and gunshots ring out. He was
:10:29. > :10:32.injured and captured on a rate during the same day but we can't be
:10:33. > :10:36.sure if this is him. There is more on this in a moment, and details of
:10:37. > :10:43.another suspect being details in this latest report. This is the
:10:44. > :10:50.heart of Mormon Beck where Europe's most wanted man had been hiding in
:10:51. > :10:54.plain sight. They knock on the door of a 3-storey building and a woman
:10:55. > :10:59.dressed in a hijab is shuffled away from the entrance. Who else is in
:11:00. > :11:05.the apartment? A police dog is sent in with a camera and comes out with
:11:06. > :11:10.pictures of the inside. A team of three men behind a ballistic shield
:11:11. > :11:26.move slowly to the open door. And then suddenly, he bolts.
:11:27. > :11:31.(GUNFIRE) The authorities now suspect that he had been hidden by
:11:32. > :11:36.people linked to the drugs trade but also connected to people in Syria,
:11:37. > :11:41.Fiat access to weapons and he has told investigators that he was ready
:11:42. > :11:45.to strike again. He was ready to restart something from Brussels, and
:11:46. > :11:49.it is maybe the reality because I have said that we have found a lot
:11:50. > :11:55.of weapons, heavy weapons, in the first investigations and we have
:11:56. > :12:01.seen a new network of people in Brussels. And today they named a new
:12:02. > :12:08.suspect, 24, returned from Syria and was last seen at the Austrian border
:12:09. > :12:13.two months before the Paris attacks. And what about this man who drove
:12:14. > :12:20.him to Paris? There is one man who knows it all and he is the man in
:12:21. > :12:30.custody. Let us which our attention to the Hague, because Bemba, a
:12:31. > :12:34.former leader, has been found guilty of war crimes comedies accused of
:12:35. > :12:37.failing to stop his rebels from killing and raping people in the
:12:38. > :12:50.Central African Republic in 2002 and 2003. The National criminal Court is
:12:51. > :12:58.now in session. Mr Bemba showed no emotion is a tool, while the verdict
:12:59. > :13:04.was being read. The chamber finds Mr Bemba guilty under article 208A of
:13:05. > :13:07.the statute. This verdict is the result of a five-year trial,
:13:08. > :13:11.prosecutors had sought to demonstrate that as a military
:13:12. > :13:18.commander, he was in charge of his forces but did nothing to stop them
:13:19. > :13:22.from committing atrocities. The militia group known as the Congolese
:13:23. > :13:27.liberation movement had gone into the neighbouring Central African
:13:28. > :13:34.Republic in 2002 to help the then president to put down an attempted
:13:35. > :13:37.coup. It is alleged that the troops went on a rampage killing and raping
:13:38. > :13:44.hundreds of civilians as well as looting. Members and former
:13:45. > :13:53.collaborators of Bemba travel to the Hague to show their support on the
:13:54. > :13:58.day of the verdict. TRANSLATION: The court recognised that there were
:13:59. > :14:06.other main protagonist with allies on both sides but the court only
:14:07. > :14:10.prosecuted Mr Bemba. It is obvious this is selective justice, I am at
:14:11. > :14:14.peace and I'm happy to see that Mr Bemba is two, he is very confident
:14:15. > :14:22.that he has nothing to feel guilty about. Today is a big day for the
:14:23. > :14:28.victims, and for myself as their representative, because today the
:14:29. > :14:35.International Justice recognises the victim and their suffering.
:14:36. > :14:37.This is the first case and the International Criminal Court
:14:38. > :14:40.to have primarily focused on rape as a weapon of war.
:14:41. > :14:42.Mr Bemba's conviction has set a precedent for prosecution
:14:43. > :14:44.of military commanders who overlook such crimes.
:14:45. > :14:59.His lawyers are expected to appeal today's verdict.
:15:00. > :15:06.We have got some breaking news, gunmen have attacked a base of the
:15:07. > :15:12.European Union military training mission in the capital. Reuters I'll
:15:13. > :15:15.quoting a Defence Ministry official saying that unidentified gunmen
:15:16. > :15:19.attacked a hotel that has been converted into an EU military
:15:20. > :15:22.training base and they have also got quoted saying that the attackers
:15:23. > :15:26.tried to force through the entry and the guards posted in front of the
:15:27. > :15:31.entrance opened fire, one attacker was killed but the gunfire continued
:15:32. > :15:34.for several minutes. We have also had confirmation from the Mali
:15:35. > :15:39.Defence Ministry that shots had been fired. There is a lot of different
:15:40. > :15:46.information coming in, we are not clear if the whole incident is over
:15:47. > :15:50.or not. You can access things through the screen at the same time
:15:51. > :15:55.as it comes through BBC News. More on that as we get it. In the next
:15:56. > :16:00.few minutes, we will be talking about President Obama in Cuba again,
:16:01. > :16:03.we will be focusing on the Cuban tourist industry and how new
:16:04. > :16:15.relations are bringing the money from the US. David Cameron has been
:16:16. > :16:19.in the House of Commons defending the government record on fighting
:16:20. > :16:22.poverty after scrapping planned cuts to benefits for disabled people.
:16:23. > :16:29.David Cameron has been under fire from some in his own party over
:16:30. > :16:33.those planned changes. Without sound public finances, you end up having
:16:34. > :16:38.to raise taxes or make even deeper cuts in spending, you don't get more
:16:39. > :16:42.opportunity that way, you get less opportunity that way. We know that
:16:43. > :16:47.when that happens, it is working people that suffer as we saw in
:16:48. > :16:50.Labour's recession so we must continue to cut the deficit, control
:16:51. > :16:55.the cost of welfare and live within our means. We must not burden on our
:16:56. > :17:02.children and grandchildren with debts that we did not have the
:17:03. > :17:05.courage to pay off ourselves. So securing our economy, extending
:17:06. > :17:10.opportunity, we will continue with this approach in full because we are
:17:11. > :17:21.a modern, compassionate one nation Conservative government. Welcome
:17:22. > :17:25.back to the BBC newsroom, this is outside source, our lead story is
:17:26. > :17:31.coming from Cuba. President Obama has met Ralph Castro in Cuba, they
:17:32. > :17:35.have agreed there are still many differences despite the recent
:17:36. > :17:39.forward momentum. Some of the main stories from the World Service,
:17:40. > :17:44.first from China, one of its richest men says that it believes that
:17:45. > :17:47.China's chances of hosting the World Cup have improved because his
:17:48. > :17:55.company won the group has become a major Fifa sponsor. Organisers of
:17:56. > :17:58.the 2022 addition in Qatar are considering using bed Windstar tense
:17:59. > :18:03.as accommodation for fans, apparently there is concern that
:18:04. > :18:07.they will not be enough hotels. And this is part of a report on a new
:18:08. > :18:11.type of protective eyewear which is being trialled in the UK, to guard
:18:12. > :18:21.police helicopter pilots from lasers. If you have been online in
:18:22. > :18:26.the last few hours you won't have missed this. Twitter is ten years
:18:27. > :18:31.old, ten years ago the first tweet was sent, we are now up to 500
:18:32. > :18:37.million tweets per day. We had the task of sifting through a few. Just
:18:38. > :18:41.setting up my Twitter is what this man wrote in 2006 and it was not
:18:42. > :18:46.another six months before they decided to add a few more bowels to
:18:47. > :18:52.the name. Twitter would not be a twitter without any hashtags. The
:18:53. > :18:55.first ever one, was from the social technology expert. This incredible
:18:56. > :19:06.shot of a plane that landed on the Hudson River confirmed twitter as
:19:07. > :19:10.being breaking news. At the December 2012, they were joined by Pope
:19:11. > :19:18.Benedict. But not all public figures are so good at using twitter.
:19:19. > :19:23.British politician Ed Balls managed to accidentally twitter his own
:19:24. > :19:27.name. But by far the most popular person's president Barack Obama,
:19:28. > :19:33.when he was re-elected in 2012, this was the most retweeted picture ever.
:19:34. > :19:36.But President Obama's tweet has been overtaken by the infamous Oscar self
:19:37. > :19:43.feat that has been retweeted more than 3 million times. When it comes
:19:44. > :19:47.to Twitter, it is this tweet that changed everything, the company
:19:48. > :19:51.announced in 2013 that it would go public and float on the stock
:19:52. > :19:55.exchange. That big decision led twitter to where it is today.
:19:56. > :19:59.Despite years of phenomenal success, the site is not growing fast enough
:20:00. > :20:05.and many people are choosing things like stab Chad or Instagram instead.
:20:06. > :20:10.While it has been a fascinating ten years, he would not bet
:20:11. > :20:18.your life savings on their being ten more. You mentioned President Obama,
:20:19. > :20:22.let us return to Cuba, one of the main consequences of the warming of
:20:23. > :20:27.relationships, is a far greater economic racial ship going back and
:20:28. > :20:33.forth. The mentioned tourism for instance. It is just over 10% of
:20:34. > :20:40.Cuban GDP, a hugely significant industry and this is an important
:20:41. > :20:45.figure, from 2014 to 2015 the number of US tourists went up by 77%, they
:20:46. > :20:49.need somewhere to stay which creates its own challenges. This is one of
:20:50. > :20:57.the reports that Laura Trevelyan has made on this issue. The stunning
:20:58. > :21:02.coastal setting of Havana, the history and charm makes the city and
:21:03. > :21:08.irresistible draw for tourists. But let us not forget, the iconic 1950s
:21:09. > :21:12.American cars. Off-limits to US visitors for so long, construction
:21:13. > :21:17.is under way to cope with the demand now that relations between America
:21:18. > :21:22.and Cuba are thawing. This is one of the most famous spots in Havana,
:21:23. > :21:25.beloved by American movie stars and mobsters alike in the period before
:21:26. > :21:29.the Cuban revolution and so many people now want to come to Cuba,
:21:30. > :21:33.that hotels like this are facing competition not least from a bit of
:21:34. > :21:40.American-style capitalism in the face of hair B People have been
:21:41. > :21:45.sharing their homes in Cuba since the mid-90s although we have only
:21:46. > :21:51.officially been open in the last year. He shows off one of the 2.5
:21:52. > :21:54.thousand homes listed in Havana in his company, and now they can accept
:21:55. > :21:58.bookings from all over the world and not just the US. Many more
:21:59. > :22:03.travellers will be coming, we have a hundred flights a day from the US so
:22:04. > :22:14.the huge influx of additional visitors. I think we can really help
:22:15. > :22:18.those two scale. Officially, the rulers call these adjustments to the
:22:19. > :22:27.system but for many Cubans, the society seems on a cusp of a great
:22:28. > :22:31.change. Let us go from Havana to San Francisco, Tim Cook has been
:22:32. > :22:39.launching another major Apple event. Let us bring in the Shell flurry
:22:40. > :22:43.from the BBC. Let us start with the products, I'm making it sound quite
:22:44. > :22:49.dramatic, new iPhone and knew how iPad, these are evolutions rather
:22:50. > :22:54.than brand-new? That is right, Apple is known for hosting big events,
:22:55. > :23:02.will they call them town hall events. That ground, big drama. --
:23:03. > :23:08.huge background. In an important way, it is important but not that
:23:09. > :23:15.dramatic from a consumer perspective. They have unveiled a
:23:16. > :23:19.smaller iPhone and a smaller iPad, that will cost you less money. Some
