Hello, I'm Ros Atkins, this is Outside Source.

:00:10.:00:11.

Italy is calling for action over the migrant crisis.

:00:12.:00:14.

It's asked European ministers to open up other ports

:00:15.:00:17.

in Europe to rescue boats - but that request has been refused.

:00:18.:00:22.

Emmanuel Macron has told France it needs to confront the realities

:00:23.:00:27.

TRANSLATION:, rules have gone over initiative, the public purse over

:00:28.:00:40.

fairness. Yesterday this US warship sailed

:00:41.:00:41.

close to islands claimed by CHina, China has called it a serious

:00:42.:00:44.

military provocation. We will be at the BBC sports centre.

:00:45.:01:00.

We will talk about Andy Murray going through, and everything else as

:01:01.:01:01.

well. This whole area is the subject

:01:02.:01:12.

of territorial disputes between China and Vietnam

:01:13.:01:16.

and the Philippines. China claims all the

:01:17.:01:26.

maritime territory inside this dotted red line,

:01:27.:01:31.

but its neighbours dispute this. A US warship has sailed

:01:32.:01:38.

close to Triton Island, which is claimed by China,

:01:39.:01:40.

Taiwan and Vietnam. China sent military

:01:41.:01:50.

vessels and fighter planes Last night the Chinese foreign

:01:51.:01:55.

ministry put out this statement - they called it "a serious political

:01:56.:01:59.

and military provocation." This was hours before

:02:00.:02:01.

a phone call between the leaders of US and China -

:02:02.:02:03.

in which apparently I asked Vincent Ni from the BBC's

:02:04.:02:06.

Chinese Service to explain. They did discuss that in a very

:02:07.:02:21.

discreet way in a sense that both sides do not Juantorena

:02:22.:02:24.

relationship, they don't want a confrontational approach. It is also

:02:25.:02:28.

partly for mass consumption because this isn't the first time that it

:02:29.:02:38.

has sailed through the South China Sea and China have objected. It

:02:39.:02:42.

shows that both sides, Beijing and Washington, wants to keep the good

:02:43.:02:47.

momentum going on. Do these two men have a good relationship? It seems

:02:48.:02:54.

so but I think the diplomatic honeymoon period between President

:02:55.:02:59.

Trump and president Xi is approaching an end. We are seeing a

:03:00.:03:02.

more normal relationship between the US and China, meaning there is a bit

:03:03.:03:07.

of competition and a bit of collaboration. They compete on

:03:08.:03:12.

issues like trade deficit but they collaborate on issues such as, you

:03:13.:03:18.

know, investments into the United States. The situation in the South

:03:19.:03:23.

China Sea is delicate, as we know. As the arrival of Donald Trump in

:03:24.:03:28.

the White House changed the dynamic? Still too early to say but what has

:03:29.:03:33.

been changed since Trump came to power is that, you know, you have a

:03:34.:03:40.

more friendly president from the Philippines to the Chinese, he wants

:03:41.:03:49.

a friendlier approach. When Trump scrapped the transpacific

:03:50.:03:53.

partnership, Japan is taking a more active role. It is still too early

:03:54.:03:58.

to tell whether his arrival has completely changed the dynamics in

:03:59.:04:02.

East Asia, especially when it comes to security but we are going that

:04:03.:04:08.

way, the US is playing a less important role and the dynamics in

:04:09.:04:13.

Asia are being formed. We are looking ahead to the GE 20 in

:04:14.:04:17.

Hamburg this week. Are there major expectations of what China can take

:04:18.:04:24.

away from the meeting? After Trump being elected, there is a general

:04:25.:04:30.

sense that China is taking leadership on various issues, for

:04:31.:04:35.

examples climate change, the Paris agreement for a sample. Angela

:04:36.:04:38.

Merkel is reportedly going to raise the issue in front of Donald Trump

:04:39.:04:42.

personally and I think China is certainly going to stand up as well.

:04:43.:04:49.

On the sidelines of the summit, the US and China are still going to talk

:04:50.:04:54.

about issues such as North Korea and Taiwan, perhaps, which China will

:04:55.:04:59.

want the US to reiterate the so-called one China principle. We

:05:00.:05:05.

will be in Hamburg on Thursday night on the EE of the summit beginning on

:05:06.:05:07.

the Friday. Sport now, the first day of

:05:08.:05:17.

Wimbledon. Our reporter is at the BBC sports centre. The defending

:05:18.:05:23.

champion for the men, Andy Murray, cruising through against Alexander

:05:24.:05:30.

Bublik of Kazakhstan. He will now face Dustin Brown who knocked out

:05:31.:05:31.

Nadal previously. Murray had been struggling with a

:05:32.:05:40.

hip injury leading up to his title defence but he wasn't really pushed,

:05:41.:05:46.

losing just seven games. Medvedev knocking out the Swiss fifth seed

:05:47.:05:50.

and three-time grand slam champion, Wawrinka, winning in four sets.

:05:51.:05:55.

Medvedev is world number 49 and was making his Wimbledon debut. This is

:05:56.:06:05.

Wawrinka's sixth first round loss at Wimbledon. He was suffering from a

:06:06.:06:10.

knee injury. Venus Williams broke down in her press conference

:06:11.:06:13.

following her victory over Ellie smirked and is. The 37-year-old was

:06:14.:06:19.

involved in a car accident in Florida which resulted in the death

:06:20.:06:24.

of a 78-year-old man. There are no words to describe how devastating

:06:25.:06:32.

and... Yeah completely speechless and it's just... I'm just happy I

:06:33.:06:50.

should go? Eugenie Bouchard, a former finalist, is also out, beaten

:06:51.:06:51.

in the first round. And in cycling - Peter Sagan

:06:52.:07:01.

won the third stage It's the eighth Tour

:07:02.:07:03.

stage of his career. This was seen as a good-looking

:07:04.:07:17.

finish for the world champion Peter Sagan and so it proved as he power

:07:18.:07:21.

to the front to beat the Australian Michael Matthews on the line. Dan

:07:22.:07:27.

Martin of Ireland was third. A way to the crowd made it look easier

:07:28.:07:32.

than it was after such a long bursting finale in which his foot

:07:33.:07:36.

momentarily came off his pedals. Thomas riding strongly to finish in

:07:37.:07:39.

eighth with Chris Froome in knife. Thomas stays in the yellow with

:07:40.:07:44.

Froome second overall. Matthews is in third. In a few minutes returned

:07:45.:07:51.

to the crisis in Brazil, a political crisis where the president is being

:07:52.:07:56.

charged with accepting bribes, but one third of the Cabinet is under

:07:57.:07:57.

investigation. Elizabeth Campbell has been elected

:07:58.:08:07.

by her party as the new leader of the Royal Borough of Kensington

:08:08.:08:10.

and Chelsea council this evening, following the resignation

:08:11.:08:13.

of the former leader in the wake of the Grenfell tower disaster,

:08:14.:08:15.

in which at least 80 people Richard Lister has the latest

controversial Not immediately associated

:08:23.:08:55.

with the area around Grenfell Tower. She was said to be a slightly

:08:56.:08:57.

controversial choice initially insofar as she was on the Cabinet

of the former council leader, who resigned on Friday,

acknowledging that his leadership He was becoming a distraction

after the criticism his Cabinet Councillor Elizabeth Campbell came

out after being nominated and elected by the Conservative

group on the council and the first The first thing I want to do,

:09:12.:09:13.

I want to apologise. This is our community

:09:14.:09:18.

and we have failed it As new leader, I will appoint

:09:19.:09:20.

a new Cabinet tomorrow and things The first thing I'm going to do

:09:21.:09:27.

is to reach out to our communities The second thing I'm going to do

:09:28.:09:32.

is phone up Sajid Javid, the Secretary of State,

:09:33.:09:37.

and ask for more help. I don't know at this stage

:09:38.:09:49.

what that help will be, but I know that the thing we need

:09:50.:09:52.

is a plan for the community in North Kensington

:09:53.:09:55.

and that is what I'm going to do. She has still to be approved

:09:56.:10:02.

by a meeting of the full council. You will recall there were real

:10:03.:10:08.

problems the last time the council tried to meet because the media

:10:09.:10:11.

were determined to attend and there were various court room

:10:12.:10:14.

battles in order to ensure Ultimately, when the media got in,

:10:15.:10:18.

the council meeting was abandoned. This time the council

:10:19.:10:24.

will have to formally vote and elected Councillor Campbell

:10:25.:10:29.

into this new position. Because the Conservatives

:10:30.:10:32.

have a majority, that will happen European ministers have refused

:10:33.:10:48.

a request from Italy to open up other ports to Migrant rescue

:10:49.:10:53.

boats, after the country warned the latest wave

:10:54.:10:55.

of migrants was unsustainable. In Germany, 18 people have died

:10:56.:11:04.

in a motorway crash. A bus was carrying close to 50

:11:05.:11:09.

elderly passengers from Saxony, and it hit a truck in northern

:11:10.:11:12.

Bavaria. The heat was so intense,

:11:13.:11:14.

there was no chance of rescue. Nothing firefighters

:11:15.:11:20.

could do, they said, It is thought the coach ran

:11:21.:11:23.

into the back of a lorry, Those who got out in time,

:11:24.:11:30.

were all injured, some critically. Everyone else, all of them

:11:31.:11:38.

pensioners, died on the bus. TRANSLATION: The heat must

:11:39.:11:45.

have been so intense, that nothing inflammable is left

:11:46.:11:49.

on the bus. All that is left are steel parts,

:11:50.:11:53.

so one can imagine what this must have meant for the people

:11:54.:11:57.

inside the bus. This afternoon, recovery

:11:58.:12:00.

of the dead, and the beginning The crash happened during an early

:12:01.:12:02.

morning traffic jam. The speed and ferocity of

:12:03.:12:08.

the ensuing fire has shocked many. TRANSLATION: We know

:12:09.:12:15.

of a large number of victims Our thoughts are with victims'

:12:16.:12:19.

relatives and we wish Police say that they have

:12:20.:12:26.

recovered all of the victims It has emerged they were German

:12:27.:12:33.

tourists on their way to Italy. What should have been the start

:12:34.:12:40.

of a holiday ended in one of the worst road accidents

:12:41.:12:43.

in this country's history. Last year Brazil's President Dilma

:12:44.:12:55.

Rousseff was impeached. Politics has not got

:12:56.:12:57.

any more stable. When Dilma Rousseff left -

:12:58.:13:01.

Michel Temer took over. He's now been charged

:13:02.:13:03.

with accepting bribes. Plus a third of the cabinet

:13:04.:13:09.

are under investigation You can imagine what this

:13:10.:13:13.

is doing for Brazilians Katy Watson is our

:13:14.:13:17.

correspondent there. A week is a long time in Brazilian

:13:18.:13:28.

politics and it ended up looking like this stop a general strike and

:13:29.:13:34.

protesters on the streets, angry with the government. It started

:13:35.:13:40.

badly for the president after he was charged with accepting bribes.

:13:41.:13:45.

Nearly two months of investigations painted Michel Temer as a corrupt

:13:46.:13:48.

leader in trench in dirty politics but he isn't giving up. He is

:13:49.:13:54.

blaming people for trying to stop razzle from moving forward and he

:13:55.:13:58.

said they would never succeed. -- stop Brazil. They stopped issuing

:13:59.:14:03.

passports last week because of a budget crisis. The government

:14:04.:14:08.

department in charge of printing passports has found it frustrating

:14:09.:14:13.

but the printers are still at work, stockpiling supplies and waiting for

:14:14.:14:17.

the budget to be increased and then they can get back to issuing the

:14:18.:14:22.

documents. The police department and the Justice Ministry, they are

:14:23.:14:29.

already asked for more budget and then varies an internal process of

:14:30.:14:37.

the Congress to get it approved. Michel Temer's approval ratings are

:14:38.:14:40.

the lowest for any president in 30 years but despite that, despite the

:14:41.:14:46.

protests and criminal charges against him, he is hanging on

:14:47.:14:50.

because what is the alternative? Brazilians seem to be running out of

:14:51.:14:55.

ideas. There is no work, that is the problem. We don't know what to do

:14:56.:14:59.

about the politics. We just put one president out and the second is

:15:00.:15:04.

having the same problem now. We lost. You have given up? Not given

:15:05.:15:12.

up, just trying to find somewhere to keep going. These are unprecedented

:15:13.:15:19.

times, Michel Temer is the first sitting president to face charges

:15:20.:15:22.

but experts say that little will change. Right now it is as if time

:15:23.:15:28.

is frozen in Brazil and everyone is counting the clock to see when we

:15:29.:15:32.

can overcome this. I think the only way to do it is to wait for the 2018

:15:33.:15:39.

elections when we are going to draw the line between past and present.

:15:40.:15:43.

The winds of change may have started blowing in Brazil but for now,

:15:44.:15:46.

stability is better than uncertainty. Taking the easy option

:15:47.:15:57.

is tempting. I'm not sure I have ever will therefore linked from the

:15:58.:16:03.

beach and politics to another story about the beach and politics.

:16:04.:16:06.

What a story New Jersey Governor Chris Christie finds himself in.

:16:07.:16:09.

He's closed some beaches due to an impasse on the state budget.

:16:10.:16:12.

This was Mr Christie initial response.

:16:13.:16:18.

I didn't get any Sun today. There are no lifeguards, there is no one

:16:19.:16:26.

to pick up the garbage, there is no one providing any service at the

:16:27.:16:35.

state park. Next? Excuse me, next! He said he was and the Governor's

:16:36.:16:43.

residents, that's the way it goes, if you run for governor you can have

:16:44.:16:48.

a residence there. He said he did not get any Sun but then these

:16:49.:16:54.

pictures emerged. You can see him shading from the sun with some

:16:55.:16:58.

members of his family on a beach, when you see the wider shot you

:16:59.:17:02.

where lies it is completely empty because the governor shut it down.

:17:03.:17:07.

This is a difficult one to explain away. Nada Tawfik in New York has

:17:08.:17:16.

been talking about Governor Christie's approach. There were

:17:17.:17:21.

jokes on social media suggesting he was trying to beat his own record

:17:22.:17:24.

for lowest approval rating is because he has the lowest approval

:17:25.:17:28.

ratings of any governor measured. This is likely to further worsened

:17:29.:17:35.

that. He was known for his bluntness and bravado but the optics are

:17:36.:17:39.

terrible. He closed Island Beach, one of the nicer beaches in New

:17:40.:17:44.

Jersey, I can say that having gone there for quite a while. Other

:17:45.:17:48.

beaches are open but it was his response to why he was there. He

:17:49.:17:52.

said that is the way it goes, if you are governor you can have a

:17:53.:17:57.

residence there as well. And increasingly people are feeling that

:17:58.:18:01.

he doesn't care any more. He is coming to the end of his second

:18:02.:18:05.

term, he has little prospects of representing New Jersey in

:18:06.:18:07.

Washington because of his low approval ratings so he is giving off

:18:08.:18:13.

the typical Governor Christie attitude but it is infuriating

:18:14.:18:15.

taxpayers who say that they governor shouldn't have access to a beach

:18:16.:18:22.

that taxpayers don't. To put a line under this, his Lieutenant Governor

:18:23.:18:26.

who is running to replace him under the bus aimed that if she were

:18:27.:18:30.

governor, his actions are beyond words and she would not be doing it.

:18:31.:18:38.

This is quite a fall from grace. In 2012, covering superstorm Sandy,

:18:39.:18:40.

Governor Christie was being celebrated for his performance.

:18:41.:18:45.

Absolutely and when I covered his re-election as governor he boasted,

:18:46.:18:50.

to Washington, DC, look at what we're doing in New Jersey, we a

:18:51.:18:53.

model of how parties can work together. He was repositioning

:18:54.:19:00.

himself, running against Donald Trump but after that scandal it

:19:01.:19:05.

showed the personality that his opponents had been pushing through.

:19:06.:19:10.

He was a man, even though he wasn't criminally charged and denied being

:19:11.:19:13.

involved in a scandal that close the George Washington Bridge in New York

:19:14.:19:18.

for political retribution, his opponents said that this is how his

:19:19.:19:23.

administration works, he doesn't work across the aisle, instead he

:19:24.:19:28.

uses bullying tactics. This hurt him in New Jersey, and that, with his

:19:29.:19:33.

support of Donald Trump, means that his approval ratings have been

:19:34.:19:39.

tanking since. When might the beaches in New Jersey reopen? They

:19:40.:19:44.

are, as governor Chris Christie tweeted them are going on a PR

:19:45.:19:50.

offensive, 190 miles of the beach are open, municipal beaches, federal

:19:51.:19:54.

beaches but the state beaches are the ones that are closed, that the

:19:55.:20:00.

governor's residents was on one of them, which is where he was

:20:01.:20:01.

pictured. Another Republican doing things his

:20:02.:20:17.

own way. Many of you probably saw

:20:18.:20:21.

this video yesterday. This is a clip from Donald Trump on

:20:22.:20:31.

the WWE, but with the CNN logo over his opponent's face, some felt it

:20:32.:20:34.

was incitement to attack journalists, others thought it was a

:20:35.:20:50.

joke and nothing more. The video came from a Reddit account. It has a

:20:51.:21:04.

history of negative postings. I thought that the clip from the

:21:05.:21:08.

president connected nicely with another report featuring local

:21:09.:21:14.

wrestling in Kentucky and a bad guy that Donald Trump would love to take

:21:15.:21:19.

on, called progressive liberal. That's what I want, I want to upset

:21:20.:21:26.

people. I enjoyed every second of it. We are in the Bible Belt, in the

:21:27.:21:34.

middle of Eastern Kentucky, he is the perfect heel. You Fox News

:21:35.:21:46.

maggot! There are two things you can not talk about without a fight, that

:21:47.:21:48.

is politics and religion. It is a release, for sure. Saying

:21:49.:21:58.

what I think. I was working for a promoter and

:21:59.:22:14.

that event who said he, I want you to be the best bad guy you can be. I

:22:15.:22:21.

talked about how I wished he would not build a wall around Mexico,

:22:22.:22:26.

talked about how he would build it around West Virginia so those people

:22:27.:22:30.

couldn't infiltrate the rest of the population. I don't agree with his

:22:31.:22:42.

political views but he is probably the best gimmick I've seen in

:22:43.:22:46.

wrestling in a long time. We've seen it once before. When he is fighting

:22:47.:22:57.

we try and go watch him. I think I'm speaking for the masses. You know,

:22:58.:23:01.

the masses may not be here in eastern Kentucky where we are now,

:23:02.:23:10.

but I'm speaking for the country. We dislike him not so much for his hard

:23:11.:23:15.

left views, but we don't like being told what is best for us and that

:23:16.:23:24.

everybody knows what is best for us. For read their arm or Republicans --

:23:25.:23:30.

probably there arm or Republicans here in the audience but it is a

:23:31.:23:36.

good show. You aren't going to find a character like progressive liberal

:23:37.:23:38.

in New York and Los Angeles, you will find it in the heartland of the

:23:39.:23:44.

Bible Belt. We think of things like our EULA or right but at the end of

:23:45.:23:54.

the day, who can drop the elbow? --: you left or right.

:23:55.:24:00.

At least one progressive liberal won even if they did not win the

:24:01.:24:05.

election. There will be plenty of them at the G20 later this week and

:24:06.:24:11.

Donald Trump is going to mix with them. It takes place on Friday and

:24:12.:24:16.

Saturday. We'll be in hamburger covering the rivals and broader

:24:17.:24:22.

issues. One of the bigger issues is global leadership -- we will be in

:24:23.:24:41.

Hamburg. We will be seeing how the Chinese fit into the equation.

:24:42.:24:54.

We have a couple of programmes until Thursday. I will see you tomorrow.

:24:55.:25:11.

You don't hear much about the jet at this time of year,

:25:12.:25:12.
