:01:21. > :01:26.But first, let's hear what the leaders have been saying,
:01:27. > :01:36.with Brexit, migration and security on the agenda.
:01:37. > :01:43.TRANSLATION: Many people felt that after Brexit, Europe would come to
:01:44. > :01:47.an end, but that is not the case. We respect the choice that has been
:01:48. > :01:51.made by British citizens, but at the same time, we want to be able to
:01:52. > :01:56.write a new page for the future will stop we are talking about internal
:01:57. > :02:00.security and external security and collaboration between intelligence
:02:01. > :02:04.services better integration of national industries and in
:02:05. > :02:10.particular, defence. And those are priorities.
:02:11. > :02:15.Absolute priorities. TRANSLATION: Europe must ensure its own defence,
:02:16. > :02:20.and France is certainly playing its role. But Europe might also be a
:02:21. > :02:25.reality was that it is an ideal but it must be translated into the daily
:02:26. > :02:32.lives of Europeans and that is why we wanted to meet here and why we
:02:33. > :02:36.met earlier in Berlin. TRANSLATION: While we respect Great
:02:37. > :02:38.Britain's position we want to reassure the other member states
:02:39. > :02:43.that they can cut on the prosperous and safe Europe. I'm also happy we
:02:44. > :02:46.can visit each country again and again in order to inform ourselves
:02:47. > :02:47.of the diversity and common ground of which this European Union
:02:48. > :02:52.consists. I said we would get more on why
:02:53. > :02:56.they are meeting near Ventotene. It's to do with this man -
:02:57. > :03:01.Altiero Spinelli. He was an Italian communist
:03:02. > :03:03.politician who was imprisoned for his opposition
:03:04. > :03:09.to Italian fascism. The leaders visited his grave
:03:10. > :03:16.earlier on Monday. While in prison, he used cigarette
:03:17. > :03:19.papers to write a manifesto of European integration,
:03:20. > :03:23.it went on to help Naomi Grimley has been
:03:24. > :03:41.following the meeting from Naples - They were on board the Giuseppe
:03:42. > :03:45.Garibaldi, which has been involved in some of the anti-smuggling
:03:46. > :03:50.operations, particularly off the coast of Libya. I think that was
:03:51. > :03:53.symbolic, because as we heard that press conference, the three leaders
:03:54. > :03:57.were very much trying to stress that they are getting on with a host of
:03:58. > :04:02.problems, that they are trying to ensure that they do not get knocked
:04:03. > :04:06.off course by Brexit and that instead, they carry on coordinating
:04:07. > :04:10.over defence and security, making sure that they provide proper
:04:11. > :04:15.provisions for those genuine refugees who come to Europe, and
:04:16. > :04:19.they are trying to find a way of getting those southern European
:04:20. > :04:24.states out of their sluggish economic state. So, in a way, being
:04:25. > :04:29.on that aircraft carrier was a way of saying, we are doing other stuff
:04:30. > :04:33.here, not just licking our wins about Brexit. Let's talk about
:04:34. > :04:37.Brexit. We are coming to the end of the summer, there is this looming
:04:38. > :04:41.deadline at the end of the year, I suppose, imposed by some, but there
:04:42. > :04:47.is no legal basis for it. What did they say about the UK and Brexit?
:04:48. > :04:52.Actually, what they said about Brexit was fairly cursory. They do
:04:53. > :04:55.not want to dwell too much on it, because of its negative
:04:56. > :05:00.connotations, if you like. But what was interesting was Matteo Renzi
:05:01. > :05:04.saying, this is not the EU coming to an end, some people but it was, it
:05:05. > :05:10.is not the case, he said. Angela Merkel stressing also that they
:05:11. > :05:12.respect the British decision but will be concentrating at the next
:05:13. > :05:16.summit with all the member states around the table, apart from
:05:17. > :05:22.Britain, but they will concentrate on providing prosperity for Europe
:05:23. > :05:27.and focusing on unity. So, they are almost trying to give it away from
:05:28. > :05:32.the distress of Brexit and sort of focus on the future. I think they
:05:33. > :05:36.want to do that because they are worried that if they sound
:05:37. > :05:41.disunited, if they are giving mixed signals, it will only add to that
:05:42. > :05:42.uncertainty with Britain, of course, not yet pressing play on that whole
:05:43. > :05:48.divorce procedure. Let's move on. Sixteen days of sporting
:05:49. > :05:50.action officially came Of the more than 10,000 athletes
:05:51. > :05:55.to compete in the Games, these three were
:05:56. > :06:00.the most successful. Swimmer Michael Phelps won
:06:01. > :06:05.six golds and a silver medal, his team-mate Katie Ledecky took
:06:06. > :06:08.four golds and a silver, and gymnast Simone Biles claimed
:06:09. > :06:12.four golds and a bronze. so no wonder then that America
:06:13. > :06:23.topped the 2016 medals table. More surprising, perhaps,
:06:24. > :06:25.to see Team GB in It's the UK's best
:06:26. > :06:35.Olympics in 108 years. This might have
:06:36. > :06:41.something to do with it. The dark blue line you see
:06:42. > :06:44.there shows the amount of money The light blue line
:06:45. > :06:56.is the number of medals won. David Ornstein from the BBC
:06:57. > :07:14.Sport Centre told me how This all goes back to 1997, and the
:07:15. > :07:19.point at which National Lottery funding came into play. Because at
:07:20. > :07:23.the 1996 Atlanta Games, Britain did terribly, winning just one gold
:07:24. > :07:30.medal. Everything changed with the new funding. At that time, Britain
:07:31. > :07:33.only received all 28 Olympic sports are 5 million British pounds to
:07:34. > :07:37.share between them on an annual basis from taxpayers' money. But
:07:38. > :07:44.rocketed with the National Lottery, and the results, as you see on the
:07:45. > :07:47.table, have been prolific. So now, 20 years later, ?247 million in
:07:48. > :07:52.Lottery funding is awarded to the sports over a four-year cycle. They
:07:53. > :07:59.have to earn the money with medals, essentially. And therefore, without
:08:00. > :08:05.looking to Tokyo, can Britain go further? The decision will be
:08:06. > :08:08.announced in December and the sports will be allocated funding. The
:08:09. > :08:12.decisions will not be based on the... Sorry, will be based on the
:08:13. > :08:17.performances in Rio but on the potential for medals in Tokyo. It is
:08:18. > :08:21.not a system that is, that criticism because the likes of basketball, an
:08:22. > :08:25.increasingly popular sport in sections of society here in Britain,
:08:26. > :08:30.has lost all of its funding following their poor performance at
:08:31. > :08:34.London 2012. But suddenly, the funding structure has brought
:08:35. > :08:37.success. If you go to the UK Sport website, it sets out how the funding
:08:38. > :08:43.works in great detail, it is very impressive and it has brought the
:08:44. > :08:47.medals. Some saying a cold calculation because funding equals
:08:48. > :08:52.medals, medals equals funding. And some sports that some feel have been
:08:53. > :08:56.left out. But Australia had this model and I was reading an article
:08:57. > :09:00.that said other countries are beginning to catch up with this
:09:01. > :09:08.funding model. China invested a lot of money in it, but it was below
:09:09. > :09:12.Team GB. Will it be almost like an arms race to funding when it comes
:09:13. > :09:16.to big events like the Olympics? Quite possibly, and those countries,
:09:17. > :09:20.Australia, China, will be gunning for Great Britain at the next
:09:21. > :09:27.Olympics in Tokyo for years from now. Britain have brought in a lot
:09:28. > :09:29.of coaches from overseas when the National Lottery money came in,
:09:30. > :09:32.picking the best coaches from around the world, and it is no surprise
:09:33. > :09:36.that many of the countries who now want to catch up with Britain are
:09:37. > :09:40.looking possibly to recruit Britain's successful coaches.
:09:41. > :09:43.Talking specifically China, they had a very poor Games by their
:09:44. > :09:49.standards. They were expecting to finish second in the medal table.
:09:50. > :09:53.But they had a lofty expectation of 36 gold medals to comfortably sit in
:09:54. > :09:58.that second place, but they didn't achieve it. There was quite a format
:09:59. > :10:03.in China that. Initially there was incredulity, especially in the
:10:04. > :10:06.media, but then some understanding because 70% of the China squad were
:10:07. > :10:15.first-time Olympians, so they would like to think that they will do
:10:16. > :10:16.better in Tokyo with their rivals, Japan, hosting that.
:10:17. > :10:20.Now, I just want to bring you some of the fallout from the Rio Games
:10:21. > :10:22.concerning the US swimmer Ryan Lochte, who claimed
:10:23. > :10:24.he and three friends had been robbed at gunpoint.
:10:25. > :10:26.On Monday, three of his commercial sponsors have dropped him.
:10:27. > :10:29.The fashion company Ralph Lauren and the skin care company
:10:30. > :10:33.Syneron-Candela followed the example first set by swimwear
:10:34. > :10:42.This is the Speedo website, just one day following the Games,
:10:43. > :10:50.Speedo USA tweeted a full statement, saying they cannot condone
:10:51. > :11:05.David Willis is following the story in Washington.
:11:06. > :11:13.David, I spoke to you a couple of hours ago, and speedo were the only
:11:14. > :11:17.ones who had dropped Ryan Lochte. A couple of hours later, down like
:11:18. > :11:22.dominoes they go! They are queueing up to distance themselves from Ryan
:11:23. > :11:27.Lochte right now. You mentioned Speedo USA, we also have Ralph
:11:28. > :11:29.Lauren and this skincare company, Syneron-Candela, they have distanced
:11:30. > :11:36.themselves saying they do not want any more to do with him. In total
:11:37. > :11:44.that could amount to around $750,000 that Lochte is down as a result of
:11:45. > :11:48.that. Speedo USA said it plans to donate $50,000 that would have gone
:11:49. > :11:54.to Ryan Lochte to the Save the Children charity in Brazil. Speedo
:11:55. > :11:58.USA has been sponsoring him for more than ten years. Ralph Lauren picked
:11:59. > :12:02.him up for the first time this year, they are saying that they do not
:12:03. > :12:06.want any more, thank you very much. And although it seems bad enough,
:12:07. > :12:10.this could be just the start for Ryan Lochte. He is facing the
:12:11. > :12:13.possibility of some sort of punishment from the American Olympic
:12:14. > :12:19.Committee, the International committee could also levy sanctions
:12:20. > :12:23.against him and then there is the possibility of criminal charges in
:12:24. > :12:28.Brazil. It is very possible that at 32, we have seen the end of Ryan
:12:29. > :12:36.Lochte's competitive swimming career. One other sponsor was a
:12:37. > :12:41.mattress Company, who have not mentioned anything so far but have
:12:42. > :12:46.you seen anything? No, I haven't seen anything. It is early days and
:12:47. > :12:50.I think we may well see them fall like dominoes, because this is an
:12:51. > :12:55.unsavoury incident. It almost caused a Gimenez -- diplomatic row and
:12:56. > :13:00.dominated headlines at the Olympics or days as the twists and turns
:13:01. > :13:04.unfolded. And Ryan Lochte's lies were found out. His team-mates had
:13:05. > :13:07.to pay a fairly hefty fine, all three of them were detained after
:13:08. > :13:16.Lochte himself had left the country. It was an unholy mess and it really
:13:17. > :13:20.eclipsed for a long time the achievements that America had made
:13:21. > :13:26.in the medals table. Thank you very much for coming back to us a second
:13:27. > :13:27.time today on Outside Source. Moving away from the Olympics now, to
:13:28. > :13:28.France. France's former leader,
:13:29. > :13:29.Nicolas Sarkozy, announced his presidential comeback bid on Monday,
:13:30. > :13:32.declaring he would run to be the candidate for his party
:13:33. > :13:37.for the 2017 election. He made the announcement
:13:38. > :13:41.on his Facebook account - saying he feels he has the strength
:13:42. > :13:44.to lead this battle. Hugh Schofield is following in Paris
:13:45. > :14:02.and explained what is next for Do is to be a primary in his party
:14:03. > :14:07.in November. -- there is. Candidates for that have to announce their
:14:08. > :14:12.candidacy by this week. About ten other candidates have thrown their
:14:13. > :14:16.hats into the ring, and all that we were waiting for was what the actual
:14:17. > :14:21.leader of the Republican party, Nicolas Sarkozy, to do what everyone
:14:22. > :14:27.knew was his ambition and throw his hat into the ring. Technically, he
:14:28. > :14:33.is not the candidate yet for the presidency, he is a candidate for
:14:34. > :14:38.the primary of the centre-right for November. The important fact being
:14:39. > :14:44.that whoever wins that primary is by far the most likely winner of next
:14:45. > :14:49.April or May's election because Francois Hollande is a busted flush
:14:50. > :14:53.and Marine Le Pen, with very much the far right going up in the polls,
:14:54. > :14:58.will always unite more people against her than for her. So this
:14:59. > :15:03.primary will be a very important event, and Nicolas Sarkozy, this
:15:04. > :15:06.immensely ambitious, immensely energetic and immensely
:15:07. > :15:11.controversial figure, is now, as you say, very much back in the centre of
:15:12. > :15:16.the political frame. Where do you think he ranks when it comes to
:15:17. > :15:22.public support, opinion, as the possible candidate? Well, the
:15:23. > :15:24.primary is interesting, because primaries have different rules in
:15:25. > :15:29.different countries, different parties. This one, the rules are
:15:30. > :15:36.that anyone can vote, so in theory we could have a situation where
:15:37. > :15:40.leftist voters are voting for a right-wing candidate. In practice, I
:15:41. > :15:43.think they would sign a bit of paper saying that you would square up with
:15:44. > :15:48.the ideals of the Republican party, but it raises an interesting issue,
:15:49. > :15:54.because Nicolas Sarkozy isn't out of the more popular among people here
:15:55. > :15:58.the members of the Republican party, the people who have signed up to
:15:59. > :16:04.become members, people who go out and clap at meetings. Years popular
:16:05. > :16:08.among men because of his energy, is much clearer stance, they would say,
:16:09. > :16:13.on things like national sovereignty and authority and identity and so
:16:14. > :16:19.on. Among the broader section of the public that votes with the far
:16:20. > :16:22.right, not members, but people who identify broadly with the ideas of
:16:23. > :16:29.the far right and the right, he is less popular. The one who is more
:16:30. > :16:34.popular is a Mandziuk. -- Alain Shoop. He is Nicolas Sarkozy's prime
:16:35. > :16:35.rival. More in a moment about Turkey, where
:16:36. > :16:39.reports say that most of the 54 people killed in a bomb attack
:16:40. > :16:48.at a wedding were children. The Justice Secretary, Liz Truss,
:16:49. > :16:51.has spoken of the need to "root out" Islamist extremism in jails,
:16:52. > :16:54.by holding "subversive prisoners" in specialist units
:16:55. > :16:57.away from other inmates. Prison reformers have warned
:16:58. > :16:59.of the dangers of grouping extremists together and said
:17:00. > :17:14.the units should be used It is vital we make sure our prisons
:17:15. > :17:18.are safe and places of reform. So we are first of all making sure that
:17:19. > :17:23.staff on the front line have the training and the authority to deal
:17:24. > :17:27.with extremism where it takes place, and to take action against it. What
:17:28. > :17:32.we are also doing is creating specialist units for the most
:17:33. > :17:37.subversive extremists. Those who seek to poison the minds of others
:17:38. > :17:41.across the mainstream prison population. So, they will be
:17:42. > :17:45.separated from the mainstream prison population so they cannot continue
:17:46. > :17:48.to do that. So, it is a comprehensive set of measures to
:17:49. > :17:50.prevent the spread of extremism, but also deal with those most subversive
:17:51. > :17:56.prisoners. This is Outside Source,

:18:57. > :19:08.New York Times tweeted the ages It happened here in Gaziantep,
:19:09. > :19:26.not far from the border with Syria. the so-called Islamic State group is

:19:30. > :19:34.from the Turkish Foreign Minister, who says that, "Our border must be
:19:35. > :19:36.completely cleansed from Daesh," Now in the last couple of hours,
:19:37. > :19:47.we've had this update. Turkey's military hit Syrian Kurdish
:19:48. > :19:51.targets 20 times with artillery at Manbij in northern Syria,
:19:52. > :19:56.a Turkish official said, adding that the military continues

:20:21. > :20:25.ago that that was the time to watch. Tell us what has happened. Hours
:20:26. > :20:37.after we had seen the Foreign Minister stated that Islamic State
:20:38. > :20:44.had been targeted at the border with Syria, are seeing Turkish artillery
:20:45. > :20:49.shelling Jarablus. A descendant, showing Manbij, but as a town which
:20:50. > :20:53.has come under global attention, it was freed from Islamic State
:20:54. > :21:01.militants by the Syrian Democratic forces, which is basically formed by
:21:02. > :21:07.the Kurdish militant group and some Arabic entities. Now we're seeing
:21:08. > :21:12.Turkey targeting Kurdish militants and Islamic State militants. It is
:21:13. > :21:15.quite startling. We are seeing a major step coming from tracking and
:21:16. > :21:22.that might change the whole game plan of Syria. We mentioned that the
:21:23. > :21:26.Prime Minister said they needed to rid themselves of Daesh or Islamic
:21:27. > :21:30.State. At the Exning five they would target Manbij, or why they would
:21:31. > :21:38.target also Kurdish militants? But after these showings, but we have
:21:39. > :21:43.the Prime Minister and President Reagan himself saying that the
:21:44. > :21:47.Turkish militia group, Kurdish militia group and the the Somme
:21:48. > :21:50.estate who, there is no difference, they are terrorist organisations
:21:51. > :21:55.according to Turkey. We are now seeing over the last couple of weeks
:21:56. > :21:58.the Turkish -- Kurdish militants advancing towards the Turkish Syrian
:21:59. > :22:04.border and capturing village after village, town after town from
:22:05. > :22:07.Islamic State and creating a bill of Kurdish entities. Turkey does not
:22:08. > :22:12.want to see any kind of Kurdish formation over there. They do not
:22:13. > :22:16.want to see Islamic State either. So, it is more concentrated than
:22:17. > :22:17.just the two sided conflict. Thank you very much, Enis Senerdem from
