:00:10. > :00:12.Hello, I'm Ros Atkins, this is Outside Source.

:00:13. > :00:22.By the end of the week Donald Trump will be president.

:00:23. > :00:24.And in an interview he's given with British and German media,

:00:25. > :00:29.He says Angela Merkel made a mistake letting in so many Syrian refugees.

:00:30. > :00:31.He's also attacked the EU as a vehicle for Germany.

:00:32. > :00:41.The President-elect met Martin Luther King's son

:00:42. > :00:54.Wheat will be live to discuss the fallout.

:00:55. > :00:58.BBC Kyrgyz will give us the latest on a Boeing 747 cargo plane crashing

:00:59. > :01:08.Chinese football clubs are offering riches to the world's best players -

:01:09. > :01:11.but there's a new rule to consider - that limits the number

:01:12. > :01:18.Plus in OS Business we'll hear Oxfam explain how it's worked out that

:01:19. > :01:21.eight people have as much wealth as the poorest half

:01:22. > :01:47.Donald Trump hit some big subjects hard in this interview

:01:48. > :01:52.Let's get into the areas which have prompted the biggest reactions.

:01:53. > :02:00.First here's Mr Trump on Angela Merkel.

:02:01. > :02:20.I have great respect for her. I felt she was a great leader. She made one

:02:21. > :02:24.catastrophic mistake,. Some people in Germany would argue they have a

:02:25. > :02:29.reasonable idea of where most people who came into the country in the

:02:30. > :02:39.last two or three years came from. There has also been a sharp

:02:40. > :02:47.reaction. We have also heard from Angela Merkel herself. TRANSLATION:

:02:48. > :02:52.As Europeans we have our feats in our own hands, I will continue to

:02:53. > :02:56.work for cooperation between the 27 member States. The President elect

:02:57. > :03:00.made his points a game, when he is in office, which is not at the

:03:01. > :03:03.moment, we will of course work with the American Government, then we

:03:04. > :03:07.will see what cooperation we can achieve. And the president of France

:03:08. > :03:21.has said this. And perhaps he is speaking with the

:03:22. > :03:25.freedom of a man who is not standing for the election, he will not be

:03:26. > :03:30.president for more than a few months longer. Whatever you think of Donald

:03:31. > :03:33.Trump, you would not call him diplomatic in the way he talks of

:03:34. > :03:43.other countries and other leaders. Here is our diplomatic

:03:44. > :03:47.correspondent. There is a stream of consciousness about three Donald

:03:48. > :03:52.Trump talks. He goes from subject to subject. His language and the

:03:53. > :03:57.language chosen by Angela Merkel, very different. The President elect

:03:58. > :04:02.talks about, all those illegals, he does not make any distinctions

:04:03. > :04:07.between genuine refugees, economic migrants, and those who may be

:04:08. > :04:14.seeking a better life, maybe radicals, criminals, the German

:04:15. > :04:20.Chancellor was clear to make that differentiation. She said it is

:04:21. > :04:28.important to recognise that many of the refugees who have come from

:04:29. > :04:31.Syria were fleeing persecution, particularly persecution by

:04:32. > :04:35.President Assad and many jihadist. She is in a sense saying you have to

:04:36. > :04:40.be more nuanced and what you are saying. It is striking that she said

:04:41. > :04:45.the future of Europe is in our hands, perhaps not with America by

:04:46. > :04:50.our side in the way it has been since 1945. She was trying to echo

:04:51. > :04:54.the call from France as well for European unity in the face of what

:04:55. > :04:59.they see as particularly dangerous times. After all Donald Trump was

:05:00. > :05:03.predicting the collapse of the entire European Union. Obviously be

:05:04. > :05:07.a more fractious, difficult relationship with Washington than

:05:08. > :05:11.they have been used to, but she was trying to avoid picking a fight with

:05:12. > :05:15.them, at least before he takes office. I want to talk to you know

:05:16. > :05:34.about Nato. This is what Donald Trump said. It was designed many

:05:35. > :05:38.years ago. Some US media, that phrase obsolete as the thing they

:05:39. > :05:44.have picked out of this interview. That is right, because although he

:05:45. > :05:49.said war -- although he said was obsolete, he also said is obsolete,

:05:50. > :05:53.present tense, he seems to have moderated his position towards Nato

:05:54. > :05:57.in recent weeks, no back to a fairly hard line that out of date, not

:05:58. > :06:03.sticking on terrorism the way it should. Interesting that the

:06:04. > :06:07.Chancellor, we do not know whether she approved that, but German

:06:08. > :06:11.Foreign Minister countered by saying that the President-elect was

:06:12. > :06:14.contradicting what his own nominee for Defence Secretary had said in

:06:15. > :06:19.his confirmation hearings at the end of last week. The Germans are

:06:20. > :06:22.pointing out that even the incoming administration does not seem to be

:06:23. > :06:28.able to agree internally on what is position on Nato is. The diplomacy

:06:29. > :06:33.is built on structures that have been developed over often decades.

:06:34. > :06:36.How quickly can all structures be undermined if a leader decides to

:06:37. > :06:40.take a quite different tack? Of course they can be threatened, if

:06:41. > :06:47.not necessarily undermine, if somebody comes and who does not play

:06:48. > :06:49.by the conventional rules. But I think diplomats, seasoned ministers,

:06:50. > :06:55.would argue, but actually they may be able to draw Donald Trump into

:06:56. > :07:02.their way of working. The head of the Spanish diplomatic service said

:07:03. > :07:07.today that it will give the new American president time to learn

:07:08. > :07:14.about the European Union and Nato from the inside, slightly

:07:15. > :07:18.patronising. Not many people have managed to exert much influence, he

:07:19. > :07:25.is very much his own man. His nomination -- his inauguration is on

:07:26. > :07:29.Friday. He was positive about Brexit. He was positive about cheap

:07:30. > :07:36.deals. We will get to that in detail in 20 minutes. -- positive about

:07:37. > :07:39.trade deals. A Turkish Boeing 747

:07:40. > :07:41.cargo plane has crashed 33 people on the ground were killed

:07:42. > :07:46.- as were all four crew members. The plane was en route

:07:47. > :07:49.from Hong Kong to Istanbul and was due to make a refuelling

:07:50. > :07:52.stop just north of the The problems came as it

:07:53. > :08:08.tried to land in fog. And the plane crashed at around 7:30

:08:09. > :08:14.in the morning local time. Here's BBC Kyrgyz' Gulnara

:08:15. > :08:30.Kasmambetov with more details. If you imagine that from a small

:08:31. > :08:33.village of 350 households, 20 houses were hit, and that many people died

:08:34. > :08:39.in one morning, it is a heartbreaking story. A small

:08:40. > :08:44.schoolboy just leaving his house, just to look back and see how his

:08:45. > :08:51.entire house was destroyed. That is quite devastating for a nation with

:08:52. > :09:02.a 6 million population. This airport would normally receive

:09:03. > :09:14.747s all the time? Normally. It was a frosty morning,

:09:15. > :09:18.nevertheless those aircraft landed, however this aircraft attempted to

:09:19. > :09:27.land once, could not land, and attempted to rise up, but it hit one

:09:28. > :09:33.of the buildings of the airport and then crashed down.

:09:34. > :09:35.Now a new development in an astonishing story you may have seen

:09:36. > :09:39.over the weekend. A teenager who was snatched

:09:40. > :09:42.from a hospital in Florida hours after she'd been born,

:09:43. > :09:44.has been reunited with She's 18 now and was tracked

:09:45. > :09:47.down after a tip-off. The woman she thought

:09:48. > :09:49.was her real mother has been For the last 18 years Kamiyah Mobley

:09:50. > :10:03.had no reason to think that Gloria wasn't her real mother and no reason

:10:04. > :10:06.to think that her own name wasn't really Alexis,

:10:07. > :10:08.but now she is trying to deal with the news that the person

:10:09. > :10:11.she thought was her mother for all that time is under arrest

:10:12. > :10:13.charged with kidnapping her, just after she was born,

:10:14. > :10:16.and giving her a false identity. 51-year-old Gloria Williams

:10:17. > :10:22.is being held in South Carolina after DNA tests proved that Alexis

:10:23. > :10:24.was baby Kamiyah, snatched Police say she posed as a nurse

:10:25. > :10:33.and snuck the newborn out of the hospital,

:10:34. > :10:35.starting a frantic search. At the time her real

:10:36. > :10:37.mother was distraught I just want to know

:10:38. > :10:42.where my baby is. But now, 18 years later,

:10:43. > :10:50.she was delighted to be reunited with her the daughter she never

:10:51. > :10:55.thought she would see again. And Kamiyah's biological father

:10:56. > :10:57.was overwhelmed after meeting It's hard to put it

:10:58. > :11:06.in words right now. It's hard to deal with this right

:11:07. > :11:12.now, you know what I'm saying? We're just, like we say,

:11:13. > :11:17.we are trying to process it. But the man who thought

:11:18. > :11:23.he was her father all this time That's the name I have

:11:24. > :11:27.for years, Alexis Kelly. She said, since this was going on,

:11:28. > :11:38.Friday, "Dad, I love you." That is not going to change,

:11:39. > :11:44.that she is the love of my life. Now it is Kamiyah who has to come

:11:45. > :11:49.to terms with what has happened, with her new identity,

:11:50. > :11:58.her new family. We are going to be building up to

:11:59. > :12:06.the inauguration of Donald Trump as president of America throughout the

:12:07. > :12:10.week. Our correspondent has been talking

:12:11. > :12:18.to voters on both sides of the divide about their expectations of

:12:19. > :12:21.the new president. The Northern Ireland Secretary has

:12:22. > :12:25.announced that elections will be held in the province following the

:12:26. > :12:29.collapse of its power-sharing executive. He said it will take

:12:30. > :12:34.place on March the 2nd. No one should underestimate the challenge

:12:35. > :12:42.faced to the political institutions here in Northern Ireland, and what

:12:43. > :12:48.is at stake. While it is inevitable that debate during an election

:12:49. > :12:51.period will be intense, I would strongly encourage the political

:12:52. > :12:56.parties to conduct this election with a view to the future of

:12:57. > :13:02.Northern Ireland, and re-establishing a partnership

:13:03. > :13:07.Government at the earliest opportunity after that election.

:13:08. > :13:12.This is essential to the operation of devolved Government. And this

:13:13. > :13:23.means that all must remain open to dialogue.

:13:24. > :13:34.This is Outside Source live from the BBC newsroom.

:13:35. > :13:39.German and French leaders have criticised Donald Trump who has

:13:40. > :13:45.praised button's decision to leave the European Union.

:13:46. > :13:47.In Bangladesh, 26 people have been sentenced to death

:13:48. > :13:51.Many of the convicted are members of an elite police unit.

:13:52. > :13:53.The killings were part of a regional power struggle.

:13:54. > :13:57.The BBC has been told that thousands of people are leaving Gambia every

:13:58. > :14:00.The opposition won a recent election -

:14:01. > :14:08.But President Yahya Jammeh, who lost, is refusing to stand down.

:14:09. > :14:18.The billboard lights at Picadilly Circus in London have

:14:19. > :14:25.Aside from the occasional power cut or special event,

:14:26. > :14:28.this is the first time they've gone off since World War Two.

:14:29. > :14:31.The first brand to advertise in lights at Picadilly Circus

:14:32. > :14:42.Americans are today celebrating Martin Luther King Jr Day -

:14:43. > :14:46.remembering his role as a civil rights leader.

:14:47. > :14:51.But the President-elect has come under fire for attacking another

:14:52. > :14:53.of America's revered civil rights campaigners -

:14:54. > :15:35.This exchange of views began like this.

:15:36. > :15:37.More than two dozen Democratic members of Congress say

:15:38. > :15:45.they will boycott Mr Trump's inauguration because of it.

:15:46. > :15:56.Things get said on both sides in the heat of emotion. At some point we

:15:57. > :16:00.have got to move forward. People are literally probably dying. How do we

:16:01. > :16:06.feed people, who do because people, who do we create the best education

:16:07. > :16:11.system? Our correspondent is live. That was

:16:12. > :16:17.a strong comment from the congressmen.

:16:18. > :16:24.Yes, the congressman John Lewis was talking about not feeling this is a

:16:25. > :16:32.legitimate incoming president because of Russian interference in

:16:33. > :16:37.the election, so that is right congressman John Lewis said what he

:16:38. > :16:43.said on Friday, Donald Trump of course went on his favourite medium

:16:44. > :16:46.Twitter, because he is so sensitive a few days ahead of this

:16:47. > :16:50.inauguration about this idea that he is somehow not a legitimate

:16:51. > :16:55.president because of what the Russians did. And remember he has

:16:56. > :17:03.only reluctantly accepted that the Russians might have intervened. But

:17:04. > :17:08.Donald Trump because he is thin-skinned he responded to

:17:09. > :17:12.congressmen Lewis Comer that Democrats and African Americans see

:17:13. > :17:20.this as a Twitter war that is happening on the weekend that the

:17:21. > :17:24.first black president is about to leave office, they see it as

:17:25. > :17:29.sensitive, Donald Trump's supporters say he is fighting back against

:17:30. > :17:34.somebody who attacked him so what is legitimate.

:17:35. > :17:37.So this boycott is because this happened on a certain weekend

:17:38. > :17:41.because it was directed at this man and because it is not fair? I am

:17:42. > :17:46.trying to understand the pressure point.

:17:47. > :17:54.It is a broader picture that many Democrats, many people of colour

:17:55. > :17:59.feel that Donald Trump is not respectful of struggle, that

:18:00. > :18:04.Republicans rolled back the voting rights act, and this is something

:18:05. > :18:10.that Martin Luther King's Son discredited the Donald Trump, that

:18:11. > :18:14.the rights of minorities and the deans of the civil rights leader

:18:15. > :18:18.could be under threat from a Donald Trump administration. This is

:18:19. > :18:22.something that many Democrats and African Americans worry about. This

:18:23. > :18:25.is a flash point for the wider issues and fears, and after a

:18:26. > :18:31.bruising and divisive campaign in which Donald Trump said essentially

:18:32. > :18:36.that inner-city blacks are badly off and final thought for him because

:18:37. > :18:43.what the Democrats ever do for them, many said that was patronising and

:18:44. > :18:51.not accurate. And this team up in the exchange with John Lewis -- this

:18:52. > :18:54.came up in the exchange. It is a misunderstanding that goes back a

:18:55. > :19:00.long way and has poignancy because this is the weekend that Martin

:19:01. > :19:02.Luther King, the civil rights icon, that America celebrates his

:19:03. > :19:13.birthday. Oxfam's making a startling claim

:19:14. > :19:15.today - that the world's eight richest people have as much wealth

:19:16. > :19:18.as the poorest half Oxfam based this claim on data

:19:19. > :19:53.from Forbes and Credit Suisse. This is a very powerful illustration

:19:54. > :19:57.of an economy that is working incredibly well for the privileged

:19:58. > :20:00.few but incredibly badly for pretty much everyone else. Look at the

:20:01. > :20:05.wealth of the bottom half of the planet. There is barely anything

:20:06. > :20:09.but. It is a quarter of 1% of global wealth between 3.6 billion people.

:20:10. > :20:14.About well they do not have assets to create a likelihood, you do not

:20:15. > :20:20.have the ability to respond to a medical bill or a pure harvest. This

:20:21. > :20:24.puts you in a vulnerable situation, compared to having a lot of wealth,

:20:25. > :20:29.power and influence, that those at the top do. There has been

:20:30. > :20:34.criticisms about how Oxfam has done its calculations. The Institute of

:20:35. > :20:51.economic affairs has said. And that there is not the only

:20:52. > :21:02.attack on the methodology. The Spectator magazine's editor Fraser

:21:03. > :21:07.Nelson has said. That is because the Wii Oxfam looked at this, a large

:21:08. > :21:10.amount of debt is taken away from assets and cash that you may have

:21:11. > :21:14.and as such some people who may be very wealthy with large debt, can

:21:15. > :21:19.appear to be cooler than perhaps they are. -- can appear to be less

:21:20. > :21:30.well off than perhaps they are. From next year, Air India

:21:31. > :21:33.is reserving six economy class seats A company spokesman says,

:21:34. > :21:36."We feel it is our responsibility to enhance comfort level

:21:37. > :21:54.to female passengers." because in India other modes such as

:21:55. > :22:01.trains, the Metro, local trains, as well as buses, there has always been

:22:02. > :22:05.reservations, some seats always reserved for women. But that is

:22:06. > :22:10.something about an aircraft, perhaps because it is more upmarket, that

:22:11. > :22:19.something like this is very unusual, and perhaps does not exist.

:22:20. > :22:23.The domestic airline industry in India, it is booming like never

:22:24. > :22:27.before, so as it gets bigger, some of the problems seen on other modes

:22:28. > :22:29.of transport are starting to crossover?

:22:30. > :22:34.It is true that Indian domestic airline sector has been booming. We

:22:35. > :22:40.have some cheap and affordable airlines. The traffic is much higher

:22:41. > :22:44.than it used to be some musical. Having said that, in India in

:22:45. > :22:52.domestic airlines you cannot serve alcohol. Conversations with air

:22:53. > :22:57.hostesses in the past, sometimes men can misbehave when they are drunk,

:22:58. > :23:01.it is interesting that this airline's decision to introduce

:23:02. > :23:06.plastic handcuffs and reserved seats, is to do with domestic

:23:07. > :23:10.flights that are shorter, so all the reasoning that was being given in

:23:11. > :23:18.the past, none of those excuses are valid, and that is why some of the

:23:19. > :23:22.reaction has been of annoyance. No this report is looking ahead to

:23:23. > :23:29.Donald Trump's inauguration on Friday.

:23:30. > :23:33.Milwaukee, known for its harsh winters, for making cheese and beer,

:23:34. > :23:39.and though for its roll and America's fragile new politics. This

:23:40. > :23:48.is no place for fragile. Junior ice hockey. This is the Green Bay junior

:23:49. > :23:51.gamblers. Jonathan is coaching the underlyings. He likes Donald Trump

:23:52. > :23:58.because he is different, a nonpolitician, an outsider. It goes

:23:59. > :24:03.back to an alternative that is outside of the box. A different

:24:04. > :24:07.viewpoint. He is a billionaire, he is not every man. He certainly is

:24:08. > :24:13.not but I think there is something to be said for him being able to

:24:14. > :24:22.relate to a plumber, a welder, a teacher. The state of Wisconsin

:24:23. > :24:25.switched sides in this election. The large white working-class electorate

:24:26. > :24:30.normally votes Democrat, but this time they chose Donald Trump. They

:24:31. > :24:37.like giving new things a try here, even if it is risky. Some of

:24:38. > :24:45.America's top ice athletes practice on this rink. I understood than, but

:24:46. > :24:53.you are not doing this. Nancy was an Olympian batters know a coach. It is

:24:54. > :24:57.time to be a little risky. She said Donald Trump can bring a winner 's

:24:58. > :25:03.mindset to the White House. He makes a decision, he gets it done. Do you

:25:04. > :25:07.have reservations about what he said about women for example? Everybody

:25:08. > :25:10.who is the island and has some reservations because they do not but

:25:11. > :25:14.the truth about that they are hoping that at this point in his life he

:25:15. > :25:18.has put this behind him. Wisconsin have voted Donald Trump but only by

:25:19. > :25:24.1%. Some here are still struggling with the result. This is one of the

:25:25. > :25:33.most important jobs in the world and I am not certain that he is prepared

:25:34. > :25:37.for it. But this person is willing to give him a chance even though as

:25:38. > :25:41.a Muslim she is worried by some of his policies. I look on the bright

:25:42. > :25:48.side. We have two we conceive what happens. You sound like you I may be

:25:49. > :25:53.a little nervous. Yes, I might be. We heard that a lot here. A desire

:25:54. > :26:00.to Unite, but an acceptance that that may not be easy.

:26:01. > :26:12.I will be back in a couple of minutes time.

:26:13. > :26:18.Parts of the central US have been crippled by an ice storm over the

:26:19. > :26:19.weekend and into Monday as well. The battle between cold and warm
