27/06/2017 Outside Source

I'm Ros Atkins, welcome back to Outside Source. A huge cyber attack

is happening in various sites in the world. It started in Ukraine but has

moved beyond its borders. The US says it believes the Syrian

president may be planning and other chemical attack and has issued a

strong warning. Fifa has released a confidential report into alleged

corruption into the process to choose the host of the 2018 and 2022

World Cups. Donald Trump's reputation overseas may not be what

he had hoped for. Now, let me start this half of

Outside Source by showing you this. It is a statement released by the

White House on Syria. In this statement, you will find the White

House saying that Bashar al-Assad is, if he conducts another chemical

weapons attack he and his military will pay a heavy price. The use of

the word another is significant, that is a reference to a chemical

attack which took place in April in Syria. Over 80 people lost their

lives in an attack in a town called Khan Sheikhoun. The US blamed Syria,

the Syrian government denied it. The reason for the new US date admit is

that the Americans believe that the airbase used in the April attack,

there is activity there that looks similar to what they saw in April.

Our Washington correspondent Jayne Bryant has been talking about this

airbase in particular -- Jayne Bryant. The Americans bombed this

airbase after the attack in April, is it still usable? This was one of

the criticisms of their Retallick retreat action in April, bombing and

airport doesn't do much good, you just have to resurface it and planes

can fly again. There may be some truth to that, that we are now

seeing. It is certainly extraordinary that the US would

issue such a public warning. These warnings often take place behind

closed was all through back channels. To make such a public

warning put Syria on notice, if it does do something like this again,

action will follow. Also it is putting Iran and Russia on notice.

Without Russian support in particular, Syria would not be where

it is right now. It also seemed for an hour or two to be putting the

Pentagon on notice. There are numerous reports saying the Pentagon

was catching up on this when the White House but this statement out

up to the White House very quickly but after other statement saying

that all of those anonymous sources saying they hadn't conferred with

the relevant agencies were not true. The White House expected the State

Department, the Pentagon, the CIA and the office of the director of

international intelligence, all of the relevant organisations knew what

the White House was up to. Nevertheless, it is still a

remarkable statement being made so publicly, as it was by the White

House. A follow-up statement from the Pentagon and also from the US

ambassador to the UN, Nikki Haley, who also made her own remarks. Nikki

Haley is the US ambassador to the UN. Here she is on Twitter saying...

The Russians, for their part, say they consider such threats from the

Americans to the legitimate leadership of the Syrian Arab

Republic unacceptable. So far, so predictable. The Russians on the

Americans always disagree on the Bashar al-Assad regime. But there is

something greater going on here related to the pressure on the

so-called Islamic State group. Let's get the analysis of our defence and

diplomatic respondent Jonathan Marcus. I think it is. This is if

you like the next war, the next major battle that is coming. You

have two was going on at the moment in Syria, many sub conflicts, but

two broad struggles. One between the US and its allies and so-called

Islamic State. The other between the Syrian government and its allies,

Russia and Iran, against a whole variety of other groups and many of

the Syrian people. What is happening in eastern Syria at the moment is

that as IS is on the back foot as forces close in on Raqqa, the de

facto capital of IS, there is every sign that it will fall eventually

although we don't know when, the question is, who will control that

oratory wants IS is in that sense defeated? The battle is already on.

The Americans would like the so-called Syrian Democratic forces,

their allies, to control that directory. The Syrian government is

pushing a number of axes eastwards. They would like to control it. And

the Iranians are a key element in the mix here, because Iran would

like to control a swathe of territory straddling the Syrian -

Iraqi border, which some people say would effectively give Iraq a land

bridge all the way from Teheran to the Mediterranean -- would

eventually give Iran. You could literally build a road from Tehran

to the Mediterranean Sea. That is a huge strategic importance, something

that many of the White House and Washington don't want to see. I

think that is part of it. It may be, we don't know what the Americans

have seen at this airbase, they may simply be trying, as they say, to

thwart another Syrian chemical attack. But a subplot in all of

this, and an important one, is this growing struggle with Iran or

Iranian backed forces and US backed forces coming ever closer together.

I guess with this statement, the White House is to some degree boxing

itself in. If there were a chemical attack, which international bodies

decided the Abbas regime were behind, the US would have to respond

-- the Assad regime. One would assume the Syrians wouldn't be

fullish enough to launch such an attack -- foolish enough. You made

another point moment ago, the last attack by the Americans, although it

sounds significant, some 59 cruise missiles were launched against this

airbase, a cruise missile is essentially a single large bomb. It

is a major in military terms. It did relatively limited damage. Clearly

the base is still usable, if we are to believe, not so much in terms of

taking out the runways, because they didn't try and do that, but usable

in terms of having the facilities, the very special storage facilities,

enabling you to store chemical weapons, load them onto when Epcor K

carefully and so on. -- lived them onto an aircraft carefully. Win we

are covering Syria, if you want background on the conflict there,

you can find it via the BBC News website. Outside Source sport, Fifa

have released a full copy of a report into alleged corruption

relating to Qatar's successful 2022 World Cup bid. The thaw have had its

hand forced. A German newspaper has released extracts from this report.

The whole thing was done in 2014. The Foe only published a summary of

this. Even that caused problems. The author's report, Michael Garcia,

quit, because he's said the summary was erroneous or not really a

summary. Sarah is live from the BBC sports centre. Saira, we have been

waiting long enough to get this report. What is in it? Indeed, we

have been waiting three years, as have Fifa's critics, for this full

report. A40 DuPage summary back in 2014 of Michael Garcia's work into

the bidding process or 2018 and 2022, the World Cups. And now we

have a 422 pages released today by Fifa on the back of that leaking to

the German newspaper. Basically it doesn't appear to be the smoking gun

that some may have predicted. Michael Garcia, in his, you know,

work with it, he was denied access to a lot of bank account statements,

he had no Sabina Park, so there was a sense that whilst a lot of the

stuff that came out cleared them -- subpoena power. It clear Russia in

their bidding process, there may not be an awful lot more. That is what

has kind of been proved today from this. Gianni Infantino said they

always intended to release this document. But that Ethics Committee

over the last year or so was said that there may be legal issues

around that. It was due to come up at a meeting in the next month or

so, and Gianni Infantino said he is happy today for the sake of

transparency that they have been released. It doesn't appear to be

the smoking gun that some Fifa critics thought it would be, but it

high Rowett is the culture of greed that many had expected, -- it

highlights the culture of greed. It raises the questions of the guitar

Academy influencing votes. There are criticism of the English FA and the

trading deal with Thailand. And also some criticism of Australia as well.

Thank you, Sarah. Now, next to basketball, I want to talk about

Russell Westbrook. He has been named the NBA's most valuable player for

the season that has just finished. This was the moment that the award

was announced. The 20 17th NBA most valuable player award is... -- the

2017. Russell Westbrook! APPLAUSE

Westbrook plays for Oklahoma City Thunder, they were a long way from

being the best team this season but that didn't stop him putting

together a very serious season, the best ever. Here he is. That's

amazing. Something I can never imagine, man, I remember just

growing up just being home, you know, playing the video games and

stuff with my pops, my mum sitting there and my brother, just talking

about maybe one day I could be the MP3. -- the MVP. Obviously I was

joking at the time. But now that I'm standing here with this trophy next

to me, it's a true blessing, man. And it's unbelievable. It's an

unbelievable feeling, something I can never imagine. So I'm just very,

very thankful and happy to be here. Richly deserved. This time yesterday

we were talking about Jean's comments that Serena Williams would

be ranked 700 in the world if she played on the men's tour. It was

unclear what decent buoyed thought he was making. Serena has had plenty

to say on this. She has taken to Twitter to say... She goes on to

say... And that, I suspect, will be the end

of the matter. I want to update you on a couple of sports stories we are

getting newswires. The under 21 is men's European Championships.

England have gone out in the semifinals. They lost on penalties

against the Germans. In the Cricket World Cup, we are still in the group

stage, the women's cricket World Cup. England beat Pakistan, a great

victory. It was affected by the weather. The English took that game.

Hello, I'm Ros Atkins with Outside Source, live at the BBC newsroom.

Ukraine is saying it has been hit by a huge cyber attack and countries

across Europe and in India as well saying they affected too.

Now, as we've discussed many times an Outside Source, Donald Trump's

approval ratings are low in the US. Globally it doesn't seem that the

picture is much better. A research centre has interviewed no less than

40,000 people in 37 countries to find out what they thought of the

new American President. Katty Kay is looking through the results. Donald

Trump travels like an American President and has the power of an

American President. What he doesn't seem to have is the world's respect.

According to the nonpartisan research centre, only 22% of people

survey did that seven countries have confidence that Mr Trump will do the

right thing for the world. 64% felt the same about President Obama when

he left office. It's not even close. Impaired to follow world leaders, Mr

Trump comes last in terms of global confidence GoCompare. He falls

behind Germany's Angela Merkel, Chinese President GE and even

Vladimir Putin. But it is personal and part of it is policy. Let's

start with the politics. Of three of his major initiatives, more than 70%

of those survey disapproved. Those it include withdrawing from climate

initiatives, trade deals and building that famous wall. Then

there is the personal. Three quarters of those survey and found

him arrogant. For them 60% think he is in tolerant, even dangerous. On

the upside, more than half described him as a strong leader. And quite a

few found him charismatic. But then there is the broader question. Do

his American supporters care about a year of this? Perhaps it is exactly

what America first is all about - not minding what the well-being is

about you. For them, this poll could be a validation that President Trump

is getting it exactly right. Let's bring in Rajini Vaidyanathan

offering live from Washington. You have spent a lot of time in the last

two years reporting on parts of America where Mr Trump is popular.

Watching that report, Mr Trump and his supporters will not care less

about this? You are absolutely right on that. I was at a rally that

President Trump held last week in Iowa. Certainly the message from the

president during that rally was his focus on putting America first. He

said after decades of building foreign nations, we are now

rebuilding our nation. Do some extent, throughout the campaign and

even last week, President Trump was reinforcing the notion that perhaps

globalisation isn't a great thing. We've seen in the last few months

President Trump criticised the London mayor, apparently refusing to

shake the hand of Angela Merkel. At a summit recently he appeared to

push through to the front of a group of world leaders who were walking.

He doesn't particularly care. Of course, around the world, those

actions have drawn scorn. We have seen that when we look at the

results of the survey. For the supporters that I have been speaking

to throw the campaign, they really don't care, because they don't see

him as a politician as such, he is a deal maker, and they like the fact

that he stands up to foreign leaders. Picking up on that point,

one thing that unites critics and supporters of Mr Trump is that he's

strong and the man who knows his own mind. That's certainly something

that supporters of the president said last week when I asked them

about what they thought of the ongoing investigation into Russia.

They liked the fact that he doesn't wheat and reach the American people

directly. -- he does tweet. When it comes to assessing how well he is

standing in the world, they see things like his pledge to build a

war with Mexico or exiting certain trade deals around the world, they

see that as a good thing in terms of global relations -- build a wall.

I'm surprised by the number of people last week at trumps Riley

said they were happy and delighted that the president plans to take the

US out of the Paris climate deal. That wasn't something I thought they

would be talking about in the midwest, but they saw that as a kind

of message to the rest of the world that their president will do what is

right to them even if it rough. Others across the globe. If the

approval ratings are to be believed. There are some people who wanted Mr

Trump to be president to our having their doubts. Do we have any

information on what is driving those doubts? I think actually some of

that, certainly from conversations I have had, is the way that they feel

that busy West is now perceived worldwide. Certainly as we saw in

that report bird, President Obama was somebody who consistently in

opinion polls around the world was popular in other nations. Some

people, critics of President Trump, worry about the way in which his

policies here in America are affecting America's standing

globally. Thank you very much, good to speak to you. We have been live

in Washington, we have been to many parts of the world as well. We will

finish up in Brazil, because its president has been charged with

accepting bribes. He replaced the last president, Dilma Rouseff, who

with in pitch after accusations of manipulating the National budget.

Now it is Michel Temer's term. He is accused of receiving inappropriate

money from the boss of a giant meat packing firm. Camilla is live from

Sao Paulo. Camilla, what is the president saying in response of

these charges? Well, President Michel Temer has just spoken on

national TV. He once again denied any wrongdoing. But this time he

said that Brazil's chief prosecutor actually has a bend that against him

and that he has made regional accusations. Michel Temer has vowed

to prove his innocence. He has faced a slew of accusations is taking

office last year. This is the first formal charges against him. We do

have to bear in mind, this is the first time that a sitting president

in Brazil has faced charges. What happens now? Well, what happens now

is that the charges have been delivered to a Supreme Court judge

who must now decide if the case can be sent to the lower house of the

parliament. The low warehouse would vote on whether President Temer

should be tried. -- the lower house. He would be suspended from office,

as former President Dilma Rouseff, who ended up being impeached last

year. If the corruption case actually reached the lower house of

parliament, the coalition believe they can get another vote, enough

votes to actually blocked by two thirds of Daugherty that's needed

for a trial to happen. This isn't just about the law, it is about

politics and public opinion. How is the public viewing the

President'ssituation? Well, it's a lot about politics and public

opinion. President Temer is already deeply unpopular in Brazil. His

approval rate is now just 7%, according to a recent poll. He is

actually the president with the lowest popularity in at least two

decades. There have been calls for his impeachment, for his resigning.

The opposition parties have now been calling for is that the election.

But so far, it doesn't seem like any of those things is likely to happen.

The centre-right coalition, that governs Brazil with President Temer,

believe that even if they manage, however, to avoid an impeachment

process, the political crisis will make it really hard to prove all of

the reforms that this Government wants to pass in Congress. So it's a

very, a difficult political situation for President Michel

Temer. Even if he avoids avoids improvement process. It's

unrelenting. Thank you for taking us through it. The latest difficulties

with Brazilian politics. Before we wrap up, this tweet came in from

Elliott Tucker, who is watching us. Elliott, if I had $1 for every time

I was asked this question I would be a rich man. I get asked this

question more than any other. It is real. If I press the red button,

there is the picture of Dilma Rouseff. If I get the wrong button,

you get a picture of Camilla taking her earpiece out! If we get the

right thing, hopefully you get information that is useful, if you

pressed the wrong button, you get information that either isn't there

a tool or it is the wrong information, so I have to give on my

toes. -- isn't there at all. We will back tomorrow trying to bring you

the best information on the latest global stories. Thank you. Goodbye.
