More repercussions from the Panama Papers - | :00:07. | :00:19. | |
British PM David Cameron has admitted profiting from his father's | :00:20. | :00:23. | |
offshore investment fund before he became Prime Minister. | :00:24. | :00:25. | |
We'll also be live at the heart of the story - in Panama - | :00:26. | :00:28. | |
where the president says he'll improve transparency. | :00:29. | :00:42. | |
In an exclusive interview with the BBC, Sudan's president, | :00:43. | :00:45. | |
Omar al-Bashir, who is wanted on counts of genocide and war | :00:46. | :00:47. | |
crimes, denies his forces are responsible for abuse in Darfur. | :00:48. | :00:52. | |
And what do the film choices of the US Presidential | :00:53. | :00:55. | |
Let's get back to our top story - the Panama Papers. | :00:56. | :01:10. | |
We spoke about the allegations against associates of | :01:11. | :01:16. | |
President Vladimir Putin earlier - which he denies. | :01:17. | :01:19. | |
But Russia is just one example of the international fallout, | :01:20. | :01:26. | |
and essentially the paper trail brings everything back to Panama | :01:27. | :01:28. | |
and the legality over these financial deals. | :01:29. | :01:30. | |
Panama's president has said the country is ready | :01:31. | :01:32. | |
TRANSLATION: Panama's government is going to create an independent | :01:33. | :01:44. | |
committee of International and national experts to evaluate and | :01:45. | :01:48. | |
bring proceedings that we will be sharing with other countries around | :01:49. | :01:53. | |
the world. That was the president of Panama. | :01:54. | :01:59. | |
Correspondent is in Panama. Lewis, really interested to hear what | :02:00. | :02:03. | |
regular Panamanians have been telling you about how they feel | :02:04. | :02:08. | |
about all the world focus being on them? Yes, it is the top of the city | :02:09. | :02:15. | |
here in Panama City. Everyone, taxi drivers, people in the street, they | :02:16. | :02:18. | |
have a strong opinion on that. They feel the world is not being fair to | :02:19. | :02:23. | |
Panama. They feel that the Panamanians are being singled out as | :02:24. | :02:29. | |
a country because of incidents in many other jurisdictions across the | :02:30. | :02:34. | |
world and they have been giving their complaints, again saying the | :02:35. | :02:37. | |
world should not tarnish the whole country with that, but on the other | :02:38. | :02:40. | |
hand they are pragmatic and realise they need to show they are doing | :02:41. | :02:43. | |
something about it. Obviously this whole issue is very bad for | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
business. Some people feel it will affect the brand of Panama is a | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
place to do business, so it is obviously a topic of huge concern | :02:52. | :02:59. | |
here in putter-mac. Mossack Fonseca, I have seen that Panamanians have | :03:00. | :03:04. | |
been angry with them, that it should be the Mossack Fonseca papers | :03:05. | :03:08. | |
instead of the Panama papers, but is any anger directed towards the | :03:09. | :03:11. | |
government, or is it all was this firm? I think people here are saying | :03:12. | :03:16. | |
that some irregularities may have occurred but they feel, I've say, | :03:17. | :03:20. | |
that this is something that happens in every other financial capital of | :03:21. | :03:29. | |
the world -- or they say. A lot of people on social media are feeling | :03:30. | :03:34. | |
it is an attack against Panama, that it is Western hypocrisy to criticise | :03:35. | :03:38. | |
Panama because they are being successful. That Panama is one of | :03:39. | :03:43. | |
the most dynamic countries in Latin America, growing at around 6% a | :03:44. | :03:46. | |
year, they feel they are doing really well and they claim that most | :03:47. | :03:49. | |
of the business here is perfectly legal, so they say that in a sense | :03:50. | :03:52. | |
it is again very unfair against them. That they should receive the | :03:53. | :03:57. | |
entire blame for this episode, and they are very willing to see things | :03:58. | :04:05. | |
being done to prevent Panama from being associated permanently with | :04:06. | :04:09. | |
this Panama Papers scandal. Going back to Mossack Fonseca, the law | :04:10. | :04:15. | |
firm, one of the founding members, who are reviewers have probably seen | :04:16. | :04:20. | |
speaking out in defence of the firm, he was once part of the Panamanian | :04:21. | :04:25. | |
government? He is a very well connected person politically and | :04:26. | :04:28. | |
socially here in Panama. He probably I guess has the highest profile of | :04:29. | :04:34. | |
the two partners. The other is not so well-known. Again, some people | :04:35. | :04:39. | |
say that, yes, this is a scandal that compromises imported parts of | :04:40. | :04:46. | |
Panamanian society, but if you look again at what the people in the | :04:47. | :04:49. | |
street are saying, it is that the entire country should not pay, I | :04:50. | :04:56. | |
guess, for the blame that should be directed, if anywhere, against these | :04:57. | :04:58. | |
people. That is what they are seeing here in putter-mac. Speaking to us | :04:59. | :05:04. | |
from Panama, thank you very much for that. | :05:05. | :05:06. | |
To the world of sport now, and it's tee-off day | :05:07. | :05:09. | |
Players are on the course and two to watch out for are Jordan Spieth, | :05:10. | :05:14. | |
hunting back-to-back Masters at Augusta, and Rory McIlroy - | :05:15. | :05:17. | |
Rory McIlroy is on the course now as part of the last group of the day. | :05:18. | :05:22. | |
The world number three's best finish at Augusta was fourth last year. | :05:23. | :05:25. | |
But as pressure mounts for him to complete the career Grand Slam, | :05:26. | :05:28. | |
I know that this course suits my game, and I know that if I go out | :05:29. | :05:42. | |
and I let my game just flow, and I play the way I know that I can play, | :05:43. | :05:46. | |
of course I can win on this golf course, and I have beaten everyone I | :05:47. | :05:50. | |
am trying to beat here again this week. As long as I don't let the | :05:51. | :05:53. | |
venue get the better of me and again do not think about it too much and | :05:54. | :05:58. | |
think, what if I win a Basta, when a green jacket or this or that, just | :05:59. | :06:01. | |
try to stay in the present, you know, if I can do that, things will | :06:02. | :06:07. | |
hopefully turn out my way on Sunday -- if I can win Augusta. | :06:08. | :06:11. | |
Here's an update on that came into the newsroom | :06:12. | :06:13. | |
just a few hours ago - Formula One will revert to its 2015 | :06:14. | :06:16. | |
qualifying format at next week's Chinese Grand Prix, | :06:17. | :06:18. | |
sources at the governing FIA told Reuters on Thursday. | :06:19. | :06:22. | |
The knock-out system that had been in place this year was supposed | :06:23. | :06:25. | |
to make qualifying more exciting, but has just faced criticism. | :06:26. | :06:38. | |
Time to turn our attention to football. The Europa League | :06:39. | :06:42. | |
quarterfinals are taking place. Delyth Lloyd has been | :06:43. | :06:43. | |
following the action Hello. All four quarterfinal ties of | :06:44. | :06:55. | |
the Rob Howley are in action. There is around 20 minutes or so to go in | :06:56. | :07:00. | |
most of them. The one with most attention in the build-up this week | :07:01. | :07:02. | |
was Borussia Dortmund against Liverpool with Jurgen Klopp making a | :07:03. | :07:11. | |
return to his former club -- all four ties of the Europa League. He | :07:12. | :07:15. | |
was there for seven years and led them to the German title twice. The | :07:16. | :07:22. | |
German supporters were singing You'll Never Walk Alone, holding | :07:23. | :07:25. | |
banners of support there for their former boss, very much revered in | :07:26. | :07:29. | |
those parts. How long that will last remains to be seen. I can tell you | :07:30. | :07:34. | |
it is only 1-1, and around 19 minutes the go. Co-op's decision to | :07:35. | :07:45. | |
select Origi paid off as he put them in front -- Jurgen Klopp's decision. | :07:46. | :07:49. | |
But Borussia Dortmund were right back in the tie following the break, | :07:50. | :07:53. | |
across range header following a corner. Borussia Dortmund are seen | :07:54. | :07:57. | |
as one of the favourites for the accommodation. Elsewhere, an all | :07:58. | :08:06. | |
Spanish affair between Sevilla and Bilbao, and you can see the scores | :08:07. | :08:07. | |
here. Around 19, 18 minutes to go in those | :08:08. | :08:22. | |
ties so still of football to be played. Thank you for that, speaking | :08:23. | :08:24. | |
to us from the BBC BBC Sport Centre. As we reported on Wednesday evening, | :08:25. | :08:29. | |
a referendum in the Netherlands on Wednesday ended in a vote | :08:30. | :08:31. | |
against signing an EU trade It sounds a bit obscure, | :08:32. | :08:34. | |
but it's being seen as a significant These are the protests that took | :08:35. | :08:38. | |
part in -- to police in Ukraine. is what started these | :08:39. | :09:03. | |
protests in Ukraine. They led to the fall | :09:04. | :09:08. | |
of the government, and a new pro-European | :09:09. | :09:10. | |
leadership in Ukraine. The vote in the Netherlands doesn't | :09:11. | :09:11. | |
mean that the agreement won't be signed, but the Dutch prime minister | :09:12. | :09:14. | |
has said "with such a big victory for the 'No' camp, | :09:15. | :09:17. | |
you can't just go ahead Ukraine's president says that | :09:18. | :09:19. | |
"We will not turn off the road Ukraine and freedom | :09:20. | :09:23. | |
cannot be stopped". Russia's prime minister | :09:24. | :09:31. | |
also tweeted "Results of the Dutch referendum | :09:32. | :09:36. | |
on the EU-Ukraine association agreement indicate Europeans' | :09:37. | :09:38. | |
opinion of the Ukrainian That was Mr Medvedev | :09:39. | :09:40. | |
speaking, actually. Meaning, obviously, | :09:41. | :09:55. | |
that he thinks they have a pretty As the results rolled in, | :09:56. | :10:04. | |
Eurosceptic campaigners who gathered to watch in Amsterdam became | :10:05. | :10:11. | |
increasingly jubilant. This referendum was about whether the | :10:12. | :10:14. | |
Netherlands would back the EU deal with Ukraine to tighten relations | :10:15. | :10:20. | |
and ease trade. Eurosceptics say the fact voters said no shows the level | :10:21. | :10:25. | |
of frustration with the EU. That is a very clear message, that we don't | :10:26. | :10:31. | |
like to have a bigger European Union. Because, well, they are | :10:32. | :10:38. | |
creating a monster. I think it really empowers the people that are | :10:39. | :10:42. | |
Eurosceptic, I think. I think it gives a voice to the people who are | :10:43. | :10:47. | |
Eurosceptic. Those behind this Dutch referendum see the result will | :10:48. | :10:51. | |
embolden the campaign for the UK to leave the EU when it votes in June. | :10:52. | :10:56. | |
We really hope to send a signal to Britain that they are not alone in | :10:57. | :11:00. | |
their Euroscepticism. There are many people on the continent who also | :11:01. | :11:03. | |
believe in a different Europe of freely co-operate in nations but not | :11:04. | :11:06. | |
part of the political superstructure. -- freely | :11:07. | :11:16. | |
cooperating. The impact of that deal with Ukraine is unclear. 27 | :11:17. | :11:20. | |
countries have already backed it but what is obvious is campaigners here | :11:21. | :11:23. | |
see this as a significant victory for the Eurosceptic movement. But | :11:24. | :11:29. | |
those who campaign for a Yes vote are frustrated this debate was | :11:30. | :11:32. | |
hijacked by Eurosceptic. They see the consequences will be felt in | :11:33. | :11:38. | |
Ukraine. I personally love the European Union. I think it gives us | :11:39. | :11:43. | |
a lot of benefits, peace, stability. It is just a shame for the 5 million | :11:44. | :11:46. | |
people have to suffer because a couple of people here in the | :11:47. | :11:49. | |
Netherlands are fed up of the European Union. -- that 45 people | :11:50. | :11:57. | |
have to suffer. For people who travelled to the Netherlands the | :11:58. | :12:00. | |
campaign, it is a blow to morale, but the Ukrainian president says | :12:01. | :12:10. | |
this will not derail the whole deal. We continue to implement the | :12:11. | :12:14. | |
arrangement with the European Union, including deep in conference of free | :12:15. | :12:17. | |
trade agreement and Ukraine will continue our movement into the | :12:18. | :12:21. | |
European Union. So the Dutch people, at least the third who voted, may | :12:22. | :12:26. | |
not see immediate impact from this referendum, but Eurosceptics will | :12:27. | :12:30. | |
claim this is a symbol of anti-EU sentiment here in the Netherlands, | :12:31. | :12:31. | |
and beyond. Crime, drama or comedy: everyone | :12:32. | :12:36. | |
enjoys a good movie - including potential | :12:37. | :12:40. | |
future US presidents. We'll look at what the presidential | :12:41. | :12:44. | |
hopefuls enjoy seeing on the Silver on the Silver Screen later | :12:45. | :12:54. | |

revealed to the world by the Panama Journalists aren't often | :15:47. | :15:49. | |
given permits to report from the Sudanese region of Darfur, | :15:50. | :15:55. | |
but this week the BBC was invited to follow President Omar al-Bashir | :15:56. | :15:58. | |
as he toured the region. He was campaigning ahead of next | :15:59. | :16:00. | |

whether to remain as five states, Our correspondent, Thomas Fessy, | :16:04. | :16:05. | |
reports from Darfur the only head of state indicted for | :16:06. | :16:37. | |
war crimes. This week he toured the region where atrocities were | :16:38. | :16:40. | |
allegedly committed. Relaxed and confident, telling crowds that | :16:41. | :16:47. | |
better days are coming. President Bush is promising pleas to the | :16:48. | :17:03. | |
people -- president Bashir is promising peace to the people. These | :17:04. | :17:14. | |
are some of the militia that spread terror. The UN said 300,000 people | :17:15. | :17:21. | |
have died will stop 20-macro is the head of state. There were killings | :17:22. | :17:27. | |
and destruction, he said. There is no doubt that he was responsible. In | :17:28. | :17:39. | |
every interview, President Bashir told the BBC he remained defiant | :17:40. | :17:50. | |
towards the ICC. This is a political tribunal. You saw how the huge | :17:51. | :17:59. | |
crowds came to greet me. For -- in Darfur. I have been travelling | :18:00. | :18:08. | |
freely around the world. I've took advantage of my defiance of the ICC | :18:09. | :18:14. | |
to mobilise the Sudanese people. But you have not taken us to the refugee | :18:15. | :18:18. | |
camps. We have not been able to speak to people there. I really wish | :18:19. | :18:23. | |
a visit to one of the camps have been part of the programme so you | :18:24. | :18:27. | |
could listen to what the displaced people had to say. This is all we | :18:28. | :18:32. | |
were shown. A man whose career has been defined by war, now keen to be | :18:33. | :18:41. | |
seen as a soldier for redevelopment. Renewed violence has forced hundreds | :18:42. | :18:46. | |
of thousands of people out of their homes in the last few months. The | :18:47. | :18:52. | |
president says it is not true. For all the wings of Darfur, President | :18:53. | :18:57. | |
Bashir has said the West has misunderstood him. UN peacekeepers | :18:58. | :19:02. | |
and aid agencies should go. He has it under control. | :19:03. | :19:32. | |
Sweden has set up a hotline where people can phone up and ask | :19:33. | :19:45. | |
questions. . I called them this morning on my radio show. A lot of | :19:46. | :19:54. | |
people are calling Sweden right now. Hello Sweden. Hello. One question is | :19:55. | :20:04. | |
about migration. How do Swedish people feel about migrants. It is a | :20:05. | :20:13. | |
difficult question. Many children are coming and they need to be | :20:14. | :20:24. | |
looked after. What do you think is Sweden's best explored. Music. There | :20:25. | :20:40. | |
was one of my listeners asking about Abba. It is so many years ago now. | :20:41. | :20:50. | |
We don't really remember them. My main question is why did you sign up | :20:51. | :21:02. | |
to be a random Swede? I live in Lapland. There are a lot of | :21:03. | :21:09. | |
reindeer. It is a resource, to, I think. It is a good meat to eat. I | :21:10. | :21:22. | |
had not thought about that. I would like to see more tourists appear and | :21:23. | :21:30. | |
that they have an open mind and see what a beautiful country we have. | :21:31. | :21:50. | |
With every twist and turn of the US presidential campaign, we learn | :21:51. | :21:53. | |
a bit more about the candidates themselves: their policies, | :21:54. | :21:55. | |
their personas, and sometimes more than we want to know. | :21:56. | :21:57. | |
The size of Donald Trump's hands, for instance. | :21:58. | :21:59. | |
Well, on the lighter side of things, each one has expressed a preference | :22:00. | :22:02. | |
Tom Brook reports now on the candidates favourite flicks, | :22:03. | :22:06. | |
In the US each presidential candidate has one or more movie that | :22:07. | :22:14. | |
they favour. Hillary Clinton is not off to see the wizard, but it is | :22:15. | :22:19. | |
reported that the wizard of Oz is one of her favourite movies. Donald | :22:20. | :22:24. | |
Trump run his top five favourite movies a few years ago and his first | :22:25. | :22:31. | |
choice was Citizen Kane. The movie preferences of presidential | :22:32. | :22:35. | |
candidates aren't always casual spur of the moment comments. When you are | :22:36. | :22:40. | |
running for president, I do think any answer, any question is cast off | :22:41. | :22:45. | |
all not given much thought about. The political ramifications of their | :22:46. | :22:48. | |
answers must be considered before they are given. Ted Cruz seems to | :22:49. | :22:56. | |
adore the Princess bride. He has even memorised lines from this film | :22:57. | :23:00. | |
and is eager to show off his talents, as he did in his | :23:01. | :23:02. | |
broadcasting New Hampshire. There is nothing better than true love. It is | :23:03. | :23:13. | |
argued that Ted Cruz's facility for the Princess bride is more strategic | :23:14. | :23:19. | |
than heartfelt, that is the view of certain journalists. Ted Cruz thinks | :23:20. | :23:25. | |
he can get younger women who love the Princess bride and when they | :23:26. | :23:36. | |
find out he likes it, they will take a second look. Rock music and comedy | :23:37. | :23:41. | |
seems to be the favoured choice of another Republican nominee who has a | :23:42. | :23:48. | |
preference for the comedy School of Rock. He and his fellow Republicans | :23:49. | :23:52. | |
have a long history with movies. Ronald Reagan and Arnold | :23:53. | :23:59. | |
Schwarzenegger were both actors. Bernie Sanders has acted in two | :24:00. | :24:05. | |
different films. One of them was released in 1988. Then just over ten | :24:06. | :24:09. | |
years later he appeared in the comedy -- in a comedy where he | :24:10. | :24:27. | |
played a rabbi. Politics and cinema has a lot in common. They deflect | :24:28. | :24:35. | |
from reality and evoke strong emotions. That is what politicians | :24:36. | :24:37. | |
like to do. A different take on the US | :24:38. | :24:52. | |
presidential race. Thank you for being with us. We'll be back on | :24:53. | :25:00. | |
Monday. From me and the team in London, for now, goodbye. | :25:01. | :25:11. |
