:00:00. > :00:00.wind is going into the north-west. It will be dry for most of us. There

:00:00. > :00:00.will be a scattering of showers at times over the weekend. More details

:00:00. > :00:07.online. Hello, I'm Karin Giannone,

:00:08. > :00:09.welcome to Outside Source. An urgent meeting of the UN

:00:10. > :00:12.Security Council is taking place - and the US has delivered a stark

:00:13. > :00:26.warning to North Korea. There actions are quickly closing

:00:27. > :00:31.off the possibility of a diplomatic solution. The United States is

:00:32. > :00:32.prepared to use the full range of our capabilities to defend ourselves

:00:33. > :00:34.and our allies. Meanwhile Donald Trump has berated

:00:35. > :00:37.China for its lack of action Britain's Defence Secretary

:00:38. > :00:48.has echoed that call. There is more that China can do, and

:00:49. > :00:50.needs to do, to get the regime to start responding.

:00:51. > :00:52.Sanctions on Qatar from some of the Middle East's biggest

:00:53. > :00:54.countries will continue - after the gulf state rejects demands

:00:55. > :00:58.President Trump will shortly be arriving in Poland -

:00:59. > :01:06.we'll explain why that's his first stop before the G20 summit begins.

:01:07. > :01:08.And if you want to get in touch at any time,

:01:09. > :01:28.the hashtag #BBCOS is the place to go.

:01:29. > :01:36.Welcome to Outside Source. You saw the pictures of Donald Trump getting

:01:37. > :01:45.into our force one just than to leave the US for Poland, this is the

:01:46. > :01:52.scene in Warsaw. You can see that as the sun sets in Poland, Air Force

:01:53. > :01:56.One has landed. He is en route to the G20 summit in Germany but has

:01:57. > :02:01.stopped off in Poland, choosing it over more powerful American allies

:02:02. > :02:05.in Europe like Germany, France or even the UK, and will meet the

:02:06. > :02:09.Polish president on Thursday. We will talk about this plenty more in

:02:10. > :02:09.the programme in the next few minutes.

:02:10. > :02:12.The UN Security Council has just begun an emergency meeting

:02:13. > :02:14.in response to North Korea's recent test of an intercontinental

:02:15. > :02:21.Here's what the US ambassador to the UN had to say.

:02:22. > :02:32.Make no mistake, North Korea's launch of an ICBM is a clear and

:02:33. > :02:36.sharp military escalation. The North Korean regime openly states that its

:02:37. > :02:41.missiles are intended to deliver nuclear weapons to strike cities in

:02:42. > :02:47.the United States, South Korea and Japan. Now it has greater capacity

:02:48. > :02:52.to do so. In truth, it is not only the United States and our allies

:02:53. > :02:56.that are threatened. North Korea's destabilising escalation is a threat

:02:57. > :03:01.to all nations, in the region and beyond. There actions are quickly

:03:02. > :03:06.closing off the possibility of a diplomatic solution. The United

:03:07. > :03:08.States is prepared to use the full range of our capabilities to defend

:03:09. > :03:08.ourselves and our allies. We'll head to the UN in a moment,

:03:09. > :03:11.but first let's recap on the reaction we had earlier today

:03:12. > :03:14.- in particular the American These are pictures from a joint

:03:15. > :03:18.missile drill carried out South Korean President Moon Jae-in

:03:19. > :03:25.said responding with a statement wasn't enough and that actions

:03:26. > :03:33.needed to be shown. We also got this from North Korean

:03:34. > :03:38.leader Kim Jong-Un. He said the launch was "a gift

:03:39. > :03:43.to the American bastards." That drew this from the US General

:03:44. > :03:46.based in South Korea, Vincent Brooks - "Self-restraint,

:03:47. > :03:49.which is a choice, is all that Here's the British

:03:50. > :04:06.Defence Secretary, Well, strategic patience, as it was

:04:07. > :04:11.called, clearly has not worked. The missile programme continues. It is

:04:12. > :04:16.clearly something we have to reconsider. We do think there is

:04:17. > :04:20.more diplomacy to be done, first in the United Nations, work has begun

:04:21. > :04:24.their already this week, and looking at the resolutions and whether they

:04:25. > :04:30.are being properly enforced. But there is also work to be done to

:04:31. > :04:34.continue to bring China even more closely into the game, they have the

:04:35. > :04:39.most influence on North Korea. There is more that China can do and needs

:04:40. > :04:40.to do to get the regime to start responding.

:04:41. > :04:41.UK Defence Secretary Michael Fallon, there.

:04:42. > :04:44.Donald Trump's response to this latest escalation by North Korea

:04:45. > :04:47.was to take aim at China for what he deems a lack

:04:48. > :04:54."Trade between China and North Korea grew almost 40%

:04:55. > :04:59.So much for China working with us - but we had to give it a try!"

:05:00. > :05:06.Nada Tawfik is at the United Nations in New York.

:05:07. > :05:15.How much frustration to use and there is China? Certainly when you

:05:16. > :05:21.heard from council members there was a call for United Security Council

:05:22. > :05:24.action to be tougher on North Korea, calling for the sanctions already

:05:25. > :05:29.passed to be fully implemented, because the sanctions so far have

:05:30. > :05:32.much really done it enough to change the calculus of Kim Jong Un, to stop

:05:33. > :05:38.his path towards nuclear reservation. Sir ambassador Nikki

:05:39. > :05:42.Haley, the US ambassador, called out China and said it is North Korea's

:05:43. > :05:48.main trading partner, making up for 90% of the academy, and in a kind of

:05:49. > :05:51.veiled threat she said that countries who violated UN sanctions

:05:52. > :05:56.and trade with North Korea would have trade cut off with the United

:05:57. > :06:00.States. Lots of frustration from the US ambassador in her statement that

:06:01. > :06:05.what has been done in the security council so far is not working. She

:06:06. > :06:09.reiterated that they would be open to all options, including military,

:06:10. > :06:15.but they would prefer not to and the window for a diplomatic solution was

:06:16. > :06:19.closing. Tension with regard to China but unity over raw with regard

:06:20. > :06:24.to condemning North Korea? You heard from everybody that they think it is

:06:25. > :06:29.a threat to international peace and security, the idea of

:06:30. > :06:35.denuclearisation of the entire world and if North Korea goes forward it

:06:36. > :06:39.could embolden others. But everyone understands the threat that this

:06:40. > :06:45.missile launch was a milestone representing an improvement in North

:06:46. > :06:50.Korea's Arsenal, even though they don't have, experts think, for a few

:06:51. > :06:56.years yet they will not be able to have a nuclear tipped missile. This

:06:57. > :07:02.could hit Alaska, many believe. There was a sense of urgency today

:07:03. > :07:07.in the Security Council, calling for more to be done to put pressure on

:07:08. > :07:11.North Korea. Several countries, Western countries, Japan as well,

:07:12. > :07:15.supporting the US called the sanctions, saying this is not a time

:07:16. > :07:19.to bargain with North Korea, this is not a time for dialogue, as China

:07:20. > :07:23.and Russia have suggested, the time to look at what else they can do to

:07:24. > :07:28.make sure the sanctions are being followed through. How difficult a

:07:29. > :07:31.position as China in? It wants to keep the pressure all put more

:07:32. > :07:38.pressure on North Korea but at the same time does not want to push it

:07:39. > :07:42.too far? Absolutely, and we have seen China engage with the United

:07:43. > :07:45.States. For those who do not know, the US and China work on resolutions

:07:46. > :07:50.and circulated to the other members. Last year we had two resolutions

:07:51. > :07:55.with sanctions, this year 40 North Korean individuals and two North

:07:56. > :08:01.Korean NCDs were added to the sanctions blacklist, they had travel

:08:02. > :08:05.bans, as it freezes. On the other hand you saw a vehicle where the

:08:06. > :08:11.missile was launched off, that was a Chinese vehicle given to North Korea

:08:12. > :08:15.for logging and instead it was used in its military operation, so the UN

:08:16. > :08:19.panel of experts has called chine outfit. China does not want to see

:08:20. > :08:24.instability in the region, that is where the calculation has to come

:08:25. > :08:26.from. Thank you very much, Nada Tawfik.

:08:27. > :08:28.An estimated 12 million people are on the move across West

:08:29. > :08:31.That's according to a new report by Unicef.

:08:32. > :08:34.If you take a look at this map, those thick orange lines show

:08:35. > :08:36.all the routes people take across the continent.

:08:37. > :08:39.Nigeria to Europe is a journey being made more and more.

:08:40. > :08:42.Nigerians are now the third largest group of illegal migrants

:08:43. > :08:45.Stephanie Hegarty reports from Nigeria for the BBC -

:08:46. > :08:54.we asked her why so many feel the need to leave.

:08:55. > :09:01.The journey from here in Lagos all the way to Europe, for illegal

:09:02. > :09:04.migrants, is long and difficult. The reasons they are going quite

:09:05. > :09:09.straightforward, there just are not enough jobs here. The country has

:09:10. > :09:12.been in recession for over a year, prices are rising still and although

:09:13. > :09:16.things are getting better it is still very tough for people. The

:09:17. > :09:22.official statistics on unemployment say it is about 14.2% but likely to

:09:23. > :09:26.be a lot higher. Even officially, one in four young people are out of

:09:27. > :09:34.work, so it is not a surprise that they are the group of people most

:09:35. > :09:36.likely to go. In other parts of the country it is even more common to

:09:37. > :09:39.find people travelling to Europe. There are adverts everywhere for

:09:40. > :09:44.courses or visas to take you to the UK, Europe, America. Many are scams.

:09:45. > :09:48.There is also a driving underground industry of traffickers. For as

:09:49. > :09:52.little as $500 you can get all the way to the Libyan border. The most

:09:53. > :09:57.surprising thing be found, speaking to lots of people who have gone, is

:09:58. > :10:01.that many are graduates. It is simple economics, what they earn

:10:02. > :10:07.here, they can get almost 50 times that in Europe. But the journey to

:10:08. > :10:09.Europe and Libya is getting a lot more expensive and for that reason

:10:10. > :10:14.many have returned. There have been plain fools of Nigerians who have

:10:15. > :10:17.come back from Libya, sponsored by the International Organisation For

:10:18. > :10:22.Migration, they have told horrific tales of what has happened to them.

:10:23. > :10:28.Kidnapped for ransom and indentured servitude are on the rise. So many

:10:29. > :10:34.of our friends and relatives, so many of our loved ones. Some are

:10:35. > :10:39.dead. The vast majority we spoke to know it is dangerous, they know it

:10:40. > :10:42.is a risk. That is a mark of just how frustrated people are here.

:10:43. > :10:44.There are so few opportunities that some are even willing to die trying.

:10:45. > :10:47.Unicef says 75% of migrants from West and Central Africa

:10:48. > :10:48.end their journey in another African country.

:10:49. > :10:51.But the remaining 25% could very well end up

:10:52. > :10:55.on these sea routes, heading to Europe.

:10:56. > :10:57.Yesterday on Outside Source we were talking about the increasing

:10:58. > :11:00.pressure Italy is under due to the increase in

:11:01. > :11:04.You can see from that cluster of yellow lines how many of these

:11:05. > :11:09.Yalda Hakim has been to Sicily to look into this -

:11:10. > :11:25.A flimsy inflatable dinghy full of migrants is adrift in the open sea.

:11:26. > :11:34.Around 30 miles from the Libyan coast. They have no fuel, no water

:11:35. > :11:37.and no food. So far this year, more than 80,000

:11:38. > :11:45.people from different countries have arrived. Around 2000 have drowned.

:11:46. > :11:53.But the vast majority are not refugees fleeing war, but those in

:11:54. > :12:01.search of a better life. Most will stay in Italy. Not everyone is

:12:02. > :12:07.welcoming to migrants coming to Europe. This is a promo video from a

:12:08. > :12:12.group calling themselves The Identity Aryan Movement. Made up of

:12:13. > :12:17.mainly young, tech savvy members, they have been described as the

:12:18. > :12:25.hipster writer. Their aim is to campaign against immigration. I had

:12:26. > :12:33.heard that the group was developing plans for further action. We think

:12:34. > :12:35.that in every city where multiculturalism is present, there

:12:36. > :12:41.is radical Islam and violence regarding illegal immigrants. You

:12:42. > :12:45.say you do not want them in those waters, you want them to stop. They

:12:46. > :12:50.say if they stop, more lives will be lost. The evidence is false. Those

:12:51. > :12:56.people are coming to Europe because they know someone will save them.

:12:57. > :13:00.The missions are coordinated by the Italian coastguard, but the

:13:01. > :13:03.country's legal system has launched two investigations into whether they

:13:04. > :13:25.are saving lives or merely assisting illegal immigrants on their journey.

:13:26. > :13:32.Since last September this boat has rescued more than 4000 migrants at

:13:33. > :13:36.sea, including over 500 children. They do need a pull factor, they are

:13:37. > :13:41.pushing these people out, come what may, and if they are not that --

:13:42. > :13:44.we're not there, they will drown. It is estimated that a quarter of a

:13:45. > :13:49.million migrants this year will make the perilous journey from Libya to

:13:50. > :13:51.Italy, and the solution to this crisis? No end in sight.

:13:52. > :13:56.Stay with us on Outside Source - still to come...

:13:57. > :14:02.Donald Trump has landed in Warsaw ahead of the G20's and in Germany on

:14:03. > :14:05.Friday. We will bring you the latest. -- the cheap 20 summit in

:14:06. > :14:15.Germany. The new leader of Kensington and

:14:16. > :14:18.Chelsea Council has reiterated her apology to residents of Grenfell

:14:19. > :14:23.Tower, saying it was not there at the time it was most needed. Police

:14:24. > :14:26.have been updating residents about several issues, including recovery

:14:27. > :14:31.work at Grunfeld. The Government has ordered a task force be put into

:14:32. > :14:34.place to run key areas of the council, including housing. Andy

:14:35. > :14:40.Murray explained the components of the new force and the need for its

:14:41. > :14:45.creation for the residents. This is something for the long term, it will

:14:46. > :14:51.take over from the Grenfell response team working at the moment, a

:14:52. > :14:54.multi-agency team, local Government, central government, the Red Cross,

:14:55. > :15:01.the fire Brigade and police working together to help residents. That is

:15:02. > :15:05.for the short term. The idea is that this recovery task force will take

:15:06. > :15:09.over that job, hopefully with a smooth transition, and take on some

:15:10. > :15:10.of the more difficult tasks that are clearly the council has been failing

:15:11. > :15:24.on. I'm Karen June only, you're watching

:15:25. > :15:26.Outside Source live from the BBC Newsroom. The top story...

:15:27. > :15:28.The UN Security Council is holding an emergency meeting

:15:29. > :15:30.following North Korea's launch of an intercontinental

:15:31. > :15:37.The US described the incident as a new escalation in the threat.

:15:38. > :15:40.Other stories being reported on around the BBC...

:15:41. > :15:43.Heavy rain and overflowing rivers in southern Japan have forced almost

:15:44. > :15:46.Japan's Meteorological Agency has called the rain unprecedented,

:15:47. > :15:49.urging local residents to follow evacuation orders.

:15:50. > :15:55.Emirates Airlines say a cabin ban on laptops no longer

:15:56. > :15:59.applies on their flights to the United States.

:16:00. > :16:02.In March, the US banned cabin laptops and other large electronic

:16:03. > :16:05.devices to and from eight mostly Muslim nations, fearing devices may

:16:06. > :16:11.The airline says it has worked with US authorities

:16:12. > :16:32.Donald Trump has arrived in Poland in the last few minutes on his way

:16:33. > :16:44.to the #BBCOS summit in Hamburg in Germany on Friday. -- the G20

:16:45. > :16:48.summit. This is the scene, Air Force One is taxing. Poland sees this as a

:16:49. > :16:52.diplomatic coup, he is going to Poland first instead of perhaps a

:16:53. > :16:56.larger European ally like Germany or Britain. There are several takes on

:16:57. > :17:03.white Donald Trump is heading to: first of all. He is sure to get a

:17:04. > :17:19.warm reception. Anthony Zurcher is in Washington.

:17:20. > :17:26.Why do you think Donald Trump is heading to Poland first of all? I

:17:27. > :17:30.think the ruling party in Poland, the Law And Justice Party, is

:17:31. > :17:35.considered an ideological soul mate with Donald Trump is my great wing

:17:36. > :17:39.populism in the United States. It is a coup for Poland, Donald Trump is

:17:40. > :17:46.guaranteed a warm reception, I think he sees it as a place where he will

:17:47. > :17:51.aid be able to lay out his vision for Europe and foreign policy which

:17:52. > :17:55.I think the lines a lot with the current Polish leadership,

:17:56. > :17:59.questioning migration policy, Sony Euroscepticism. It is a soft landing

:18:00. > :18:03.for the president before going into what will be a much more harsh

:18:04. > :18:07.reception from Angela Merkel in Germany. It certainly looks like it

:18:08. > :18:13.will be a friendly audience given that we are hearing a certain number

:18:14. > :18:19.of representatives of fans per MP will be bussed in from around the

:18:20. > :18:26.country? I believe 50 people from all over the various constituencies

:18:27. > :18:30.in Poland will be bussed in. In the past, American presidents, I

:18:31. > :18:34.remember George W Bush gave a speech in Poland and got a very warm

:18:35. > :18:38.welcome, I think the Polish people have very positive views of the US

:18:39. > :18:42.in general and possibly Donald Trump in particular, particularly with his

:18:43. > :18:46.audience and the hand selected folks coming in from all over the country.

:18:47. > :18:51.And apparently the Polish Catholic Church, which is very influential,

:18:52. > :18:55.has put out the word to try to drum up support and turnout. It will be a

:18:56. > :19:01.key speech for Donald Trump, there are rumours about what could be in

:19:02. > :19:04.the speech, who is writing it. If you remember when he was last in

:19:05. > :19:09.Europe and gave a speech at Nato, originally it was meant to be fairly

:19:10. > :19:13.conciliatory, talking about the mutual defence agreement, the Nato

:19:14. > :19:18.accord, he backed off that and never specifically endorsed article five,

:19:19. > :19:23.the mutual defence pact portion of Nato. Now the question is whether he

:19:24. > :19:29.will be conciliatory or give more of this populist red meat he has been

:19:30. > :19:33.known for on the campaign trail. Aster Warsaw, to Hamburg for the G20

:19:34. > :19:39.and the thing everybody is looking at that will be happening on the

:19:40. > :19:43.sidelines, Donald Trump meeting Vladimir Putin? This will be a

:19:44. > :19:48.formal bilateral meeting, we have been told. Originally there was

:19:49. > :19:54.discussion about it being an aside from the formal meetings, but this

:19:55. > :19:59.will be a sit down, I think from what we have heard the discussion

:20:00. > :20:02.will primarily be about what to do in Syria, combating so-called

:20:03. > :20:08.Islamic State and possibly Ukraine. One thing we have heard that Donald

:20:09. > :20:13.Trump in particular will not talk about is any allegations of Russian

:20:14. > :20:18.meddling in the 2016 US presidential election. I think a lot of people in

:20:19. > :20:20.the US would hope he brings it up, particularly his political

:20:21. > :20:25.opponents, but it does not look like that will be explicitly on the

:20:26. > :20:30.agenda. It will be fascinating. Thank you very much, Anthony Zurcher

:20:31. > :20:32.in Washington. We will have to wait and see. We will be live in Hamburg

:20:33. > :20:34.from Thursday. One of America's big three

:20:35. > :20:38.car-makers can finally see the end of the road for its huge

:20:39. > :20:40.losses in Europe. The European Commission has given

:20:41. > :20:42.the green light to General Motors' sale of its European arm

:20:43. > :20:45.to France's PSA Group. It means the group behind Peugeot

:20:46. > :20:48.and Citroen will spend $2.5 billion Our correspondent Michelle Fleury

:20:49. > :21:05.is in New York for us. Why did GM sell Opel? Go back that

:21:06. > :21:10.macro looking back to the 90s, it was the GM cash cow. But over the

:21:11. > :21:15.last 20 years it became a money pit for the company. If you look back

:21:16. > :21:21.there has been nothing but losses since 1999. Given that financial

:21:22. > :21:26.backdrop, in some ways you could ask yourself why it did not happen

:21:27. > :21:33.sooner. The other aspect is that the car-maker had to be bailed out by

:21:34. > :21:36.the US Government. That was General Motors, during the financial crisis.

:21:37. > :21:39.There have been more questions about what it will look like going

:21:40. > :21:45.forward. In terms of the investment in Europe, some of that did not make

:21:53. > :21:57.market, according to the Seoul, only 20% of that actually overlapped with

:21:58. > :22:01.the rest of the General Motors portfolio -- according to the CEO.

:22:02. > :22:05.In other words the technology in Europe was not of much use in

:22:06. > :22:08.markets like the US, so then you saw how the numbers do not add up and

:22:09. > :22:14.they are using resources elsewhere. And what does this tell us about GM

:22:15. > :22:19.under the leadership of the CEO you just mentioned? I think the

:22:20. > :22:24.conclusion is that General Motors is getting smaller, it is also getting

:22:25. > :22:28.more profitable. You are seeing it walk away from a whole region, at

:22:29. > :22:31.the time of the announcement that raised some eyebrows, it is no

:22:32. > :22:36.longer trying to compete to win the title of the world's largest

:22:37. > :22:40.car-maker but what Wall Street and investors seem to like is that it is

:22:41. > :22:44.positioning itself to win in a couple of friends. The driverless

:22:45. > :22:49.car market but also fast-growing markets like China and India.

:22:50. > :22:52.Investors have taken it as a sign that General Motors is willing to

:22:53. > :22:58.walk away from underperforming assets to focus on the future. That

:22:59. > :23:03.said, this is a company that it owned for almost 80 years and could

:23:04. > :23:04.very well shaped the legacy of the current CEO. Thank you, Michelle

:23:05. > :23:06.Fleury in New York. India is the world's second largest

:23:07. > :23:08.producer of tobacco. The crop supports tens

:23:12. > :23:14.by the World Health Organisation mean the government is trying to cut

:23:15. > :23:29.the industry back. It's a crop that once made their

:23:30. > :23:36.fortunes. That India's tobacco farmers are now staring at potential

:23:37. > :23:42.ruin. As buyers inspect stock at a local auction, a distinct air of

:23:43. > :23:47.tension. India is one of the world's biggest tobacco producers, but it is

:23:48. > :23:52.under pressure to cut back. It is the effect of a global anti-tobacco

:23:53. > :23:54.campaign led by the World Health Organisation, which has been

:23:55. > :23:59.supported in India by the Government. This part of southern

:24:00. > :24:04.India is where most of India's tobacco is growing. It is part of

:24:05. > :24:13.the country which is really dry, it does not get much rainfall and the

:24:14. > :24:18.soil is very, very arid. The tobacco plant thrives in these conditions,

:24:19. > :24:23.which is why it is grown in such abundance, because for the farmer,

:24:24. > :24:27.the returns are really good. So the farmers see any move to reduce

:24:28. > :24:31.production is disastrous for them. TRANSLATION: Unless the Government

:24:32. > :24:34.compensates us, or comes up with an alternative, it will be very

:24:35. > :24:39.difficult for us. We will be forced to migrate.

:24:40. > :24:44.REPORTER: There is little support for the farmers. Every day, nearly a

:24:45. > :24:48.million Indians die of tobacco related illnesses. -- every year.

:24:49. > :24:54.This has been highlighted through a very visible campaign. Smoking can

:24:55. > :24:58.cost you your health. In the Government has raised taxes and

:24:59. > :25:02.introduced a cap on production. Tobacco is your great -- your

:25:03. > :25:10.gateway drug. It is the first drug that any child or any young person

:25:11. > :25:15.uses. If we stop production and stop exporter of tobacco, the whole world

:25:16. > :25:22.will thank us for it. Farmers are being asked to switch to other

:25:23. > :25:29.crops, but the returns are poor. Let's go back to Warsaw, because

:25:37. > :25:42.Europe, it is the G20 summit in Hamburg in Germany on Friday but on

:25:43. > :25:49.his way to Germany Donald Trump has landed in Warsaw. He will meet the

:25:50. > :25:54.Polish president. It is a real coup for Poland because he has chosen to

:25:55. > :25:59.go there to Poland first, so early in his presidency, rather than

:26:00. > :26:03.perhaps to a more traditional big ally like Germany, France or

:26:04. > :26:06.Britain. We will bring you more on that later.
