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

:00:10.:00:11.

Donald Trump Junior has defended his meeting

:00:12.:00:13.

with a Russian lawyer last year - who he believed had incriminating

:00:14.:00:19.

Again, this is before Russia mania, before they built it up in the

:00:20.:00:28.

press. For me, it was opposition research.

:00:29.:00:30.

President Erdogan of Turkey has denied claims that his country has

:00:31.:00:34.

TRANSLATION: Those people inside jail are not titled as journalists.

:00:35.:00:43.

Some of them corroborated with terror organisations.

:00:44.:00:48.

Our China Editor has been looking at the Chinese companies are pouring

:00:49.:00:51.

workers into new countries - leaving locals wondering

:00:52.:00:53.

The EU's chief Brexit negotiator has said Britain must

:00:54.:00:57.

recognise its financial obligations to the European Union.

:00:58.:00:59.

The Brexit story is getting complicated, if you've got any

:01:00.:01:02.

questions, tweet them to us at #BBC OS and we'll answer.

:01:03.:01:14.

All the other contacts are on screen.

:01:15.:01:33.

Here's my colleague Zeinab Badadwi, telling us...

:01:34.:01:36.

Wide ranging interview on @BBCHARDtalk, marking a year

:01:37.:01:41.

First, here's the President on whether journalists

:01:42.:01:45.

Opposition journalists write a lot of insulting articles about me even

:01:46.:01:53.

recently they did it during the march.

:01:54.:01:56.

Those insulting articles are still out there.

:01:57.:01:59.

Those people in jail are not journalists.

:02:00.:02:10.

Some of them collaborated with terror organisations.

:02:11.:02:13.

Some were jailed for possession of firearms.

:02:14.:02:17.

They have a journalist badge, but this is not

:02:18.:02:20.

the official press card - so with that badge they claim

:02:21.:02:22.

Groups like Reporters Without Borders refute that.

:02:23.:02:30.

They rank Turkey 155th in their press freedom index.

:02:31.:02:37.

They say, "Dozens of journalists have been

:02:38.:02:39.

imprisoned without trial, turning Turkey into the world's

:02:40.:02:44.

to.waves of trials, withdrawal of press cards,

:02:45.:02:56.

cancellation of passports, and seizure of assets".

:02:57.:03:01.

Press freedom is also one of a multitude of reasons why Turkey

:03:02.:03:04.

appears no closer to joining the EU than it was when talks

:03:05.:03:07.

If the EU bluntly says we will not be able to accept Turkey into the EU

:03:08.:03:14.

We will then initiate our plan B and see.

:03:15.:03:21.

Turkey is able to stand on it's own two feet.

:03:22.:03:30.

Our per capita income is more than $11,000 right now.

:03:31.:03:33.

Turkey's been a strong supporter as Qatar comes under severe pressure

:03:34.:03:49.

Turkey is never in favour of Muslims killing Muslims in this region.

:03:50.:04:04.

We don't want to see Muslims fighting with Muslims.

:04:05.:04:08.

We don't want to see those developments which are happening

:04:09.:04:15.

It's clear what's happening in Syria.

:04:16.:04:21.

Turkey is paying the price because of these issues.

:04:22.:04:27.

We don't want this so because of that we don't accept

:04:28.:04:31.

Next, here's what Zeinab made of the interview.

:04:32.:04:40.

What I took away from the interview, president of the Gannon is someone

:04:41.:04:48.

very controversial, divisive at home and abroad. Half the population

:04:49.:04:53.

enjoy them, almost revered him. Think the strong leadership is just

:04:54.:04:57.

what Turkey needs. The other half is absolutely opposed to him.

:04:58.:05:02.

Unprecedented marches against him by the opposition in the past week or

:05:03.:05:07.

so. Also Turkey is a country that international community cares deeply

:05:08.:05:12.

about. If he is such a pivotal role, operating in a tough neighbourhood.

:05:13.:05:15.

Second biggest standing army in Nato. What matters in Turkey matters

:05:16.:05:22.

to the international community. That is why it was really so important to

:05:23.:05:27.

try and gain insights into what the leader of Turkey thinks on so many

:05:28.:05:34.

issues. Looking forward to watching the home thing. You can see the

:05:35.:05:39.

interview this Friday. If you want to watch

:05:40.:05:42.

the full interview - We got a summary today of a British

:05:43.:05:46.

government review of Not the full thing though -

:05:47.:05:51.

that's been withheld Critics say this is because

:05:52.:05:57.

Saudi Arabia is named - and the UK sells Saudi Arabia a lot

:05:58.:06:01.

of military hardware. That will not satisfy critics,

:06:02.:06:18.

pressing for this report to be published for a long time. The

:06:19.:06:21.

government sitting on it for a long time. That is because the contents

:06:22.:06:26.

are believed by some, the government has my critics, to include quite

:06:27.:06:29.

critical remarks, about foreign governments accused of at least

:06:30.:06:35.

allowing the funding of extremist groups in the UK, by money he comes

:06:36.:06:39.

to the shores. Particularly the Gulf. That is why, people have been

:06:40.:06:45.

pushing for it. What we have today is a summary. Today, tells us a

:06:46.:06:50.

couple of things. In the review of this, essentially saying most

:06:51.:06:54.

extremist groups in the UK, most of the funding comes from anonymous

:06:55.:06:58.

donations from within the UK. However for a small group, they do

:06:59.:07:04.

rely on overseas funding, but a small group.

:07:05.:07:12.

James mentioned some of the people who aren't happy.

:07:13.:07:14.

@CarolineLucas Caroline Lucas, Green Party: "Govt refuse

:07:15.:07:16.

to publish review into funding of extremism + try to fob us off

:07:17.:07:19.

If she wants though, she can read it - MPs can read

:07:20.:07:25.

the document as long as they don't reveal what's in it.

:07:26.:07:27.

UK Home Secretary is promising action on financial transparency.

:07:28.:07:29.

Exposing a bit more of what these groups do. A lot of them call

:07:30.:07:42.

themselves charities, they are charities. Wide definition of what

:07:43.:07:47.

the charity is. Explain to the public, do you know this is what

:07:48.:07:51.

they are involved in? Get transparency of the financial

:07:52.:07:57.

services sector, which supports groups, allowing them to set up

:07:58.:07:58.

financial instruments to setup this. Crucially the interesting bit, the

:07:59.:08:03.

government says it will ensure charities are regulated. All

:08:04.:08:08.

charities are to declare overseas funding. Quite significant change.

:08:09.:08:13.

Andy Murray out, three-time Wimbledon winner Novak Djokovic out

:08:14.:08:39.

at the quarterfinals. Chuck in Stan Wawrinka and Rafa Nadal, it means

:08:40.:08:44.

the purveyor of Indian summers, Roger Federer, 35 years old, the

:08:45.:08:49.

highest ranked player in the draw. Tough outing for defending champion

:08:50.:08:54.

Andy Murray against Sam Querrey. He led by a set and a break of losing

:08:55.:08:59.

12 the last games. Struggling physically as the match wore on.

:09:00.:09:04.

Eventually going down in five sets, losing the fifth 6-1. His American

:09:05.:09:10.

opponent took his chance, hitting 70 winners. It appears that the hip

:09:11.:09:13.

injury which disrupted his build-up finally caught up with him. Sam

:09:14.:09:19.

Querrey will face Marin Cilic semifinal, the Croat speeding Giles

:09:20.:09:22.

Muller in five sets. Meanwhile, injury Wednesday. Novak Djokovic

:09:23.:09:28.

bowing out of Wimbledon. The second seed needed to win the title to

:09:29.:09:31.

return to the top of the world rankings. An elbow injury saw him

:09:32.:09:36.

pull out of the second set. In his quarterfinal against Tomas Berdych,

:09:37.:09:41.

lost the first set on down the second, called it a day. Far more

:09:42.:09:46.

straightforward for seven time champion Roger Federer. Ageing like

:09:47.:09:51.

fine wine. He cruised into the semifinals in straight sets, at the

:09:52.:09:56.

expense of Milos Raonic. Federer made short work of last year's

:09:57.:10:01.

runner-up with a trademark display. He won his 100th singles match.

:10:02.:10:20.

You'd to put money on Federer, getting his eighth title. He is the

:10:21.:10:23.

favourite. Find out on Friday whether he makes the final. You are

:10:24.:10:31.

selling it well. I will watch both the semifinals.

:10:32.:10:36.

The fight between Floyd Mayweather and Connor McGregor

:10:37.:10:38.

Somewhere between pantomine - and pantomine.

:10:39.:10:45.

They met face to face for the first time - in LA.

:10:46.:10:50.

It's the first stop in a four city, three country promotional

:10:51.:10:52.

tour for the fight - so you can expect to see

:10:53.:10:55.

11,000 fans turned out for this event.

:10:56.:11:02.

Some think the promotion of the fight might be more

:11:03.:11:05.

Here is what the pair said after the their first

:11:06.:11:09.

Conor McGregor has never had a professional boxing bout in his

:11:10.:11:16.

life. I'm pretty sure he anxious. I am

:11:17.:11:24.

just waiting. Day after day, going to the gym and working. Not as fast

:11:25.:11:29.

as I used to be. Not throwing, nations like use different. It will

:11:30.:11:33.

be intriguing matchup. Very interesting. His little legs, little

:11:34.:11:42.

corn, head, I'm going to knock out inside four rounds. Mark my words.

:11:43.:11:49.

That is the bit we could play you can he was swearing all the way

:11:50.:11:51.

through. This is Mithali Raj -

:11:52.:11:52.

not a household name like some Indian cricketers -

:11:53.:11:54.

but that could be changing. Today she became the all-time

:11:55.:11:57.

:12:38.:12:39.

at the Supreme Court which will give his husband the same

pension rights as a The ruling could have a dramatic

effect on the entitlement of thousands of people in same sex

:12:59.:13:00.

legal battle. John Walker worked for the company

:13:01.:13:30.

Innospec the 23 years, paying Victory for basic

:13:31.:13:33.

fairness and decency... Civil partnerships became

:13:34.:13:35.

legal in December 2005. Shortly after, Mr Walker and his

:13:36.:13:37.

long-term partner entered into one. They are now married, but Innospec,

:13:38.:13:40.

relying on an exemption in the Equality Act,

:13:41.:13:42.

refused to take account of his pension contributions before

:13:43.:14:05.

that date, dramatically reducing the pension Mr Walker's

:14:06.:14:08.

husband would receive. The highest court in the land

:14:09.:14:09.

found that an anomaly. If Mr Walker married

:14:10.:14:12.

a woman, even after his retirement, indeed even now,

:14:13.:14:14.

she would be entitled to a pension. The court ruled that EU equality

:14:15.:14:16.

law, any British exemption. Mr Walker's husband will be entitled

:14:17.:14:19.

to a spouse's pension on Mr Walker's death,

provided of course that It would be the same with anybody,

whether it is a heterosexual couple or a same-sex couple -

someone you love, that person, you want to make sure is looked

:14:28.:14:30.

after as long as they are alive. I'm older than him,

:14:31.:14:33.

therefore statistically, the chances are that

:14:34.:14:35.

I will die before him. I wanted to ensure

:14:36.:14:37.

he was looked after. The effect of today's

:14:38.:14:39.

ruling is massive. It doesn't just about John Walker -

:14:40.:14:40.

it affects everyone who is in a civil

:14:41.:14:43.

partnership or same-sex marriage and that is whether they are paying

:14:44.:14:45.

into an occupational pension scheme with a private employer

:14:46.:14:48.

or within the public sector. Supporters were thrilled,

:14:49.:14:50.

but the human rights group Liberty which supported John Walker sees

:14:51.:14:52.

a possible storm It is only EU law that

:14:53.:14:54.

allowed him to win today. So obviously what Mr Walker wants

:14:55.:14:58.

to know and what Liberty wants to know is what is going to happen

to these rights when we leave The Government says it's

at the heart of civil partnerships and same-sex marriage has finally

:15:08.:15:10.

caught up with pensions, and there President Trump's eldest son has

:15:11.:15:12.

said he didn't tell his father about a meeting last year

with a Russian lawyer, who was apparently offering

documents that would damage The second round of Brexit

:15:41.:15:42.

Secretary Boris Johnson - on any long-term financial

obligations the UK will owe The sums I've seen, they propose to

demand from the country seem to be extortionate. Go whistle is entirely

:16:14.:16:17.

appropriate expression was 'Go whistle', by the way,

:16:18.:16:20.

means to ask for something you don't Today, the EU's Brexit

:16:21.:16:23.

negotiator Michel Barnier how I am not hearing any whistling,

:16:24.:16:40.

just the clock ticking. He worked on that line, it's done.

:16:41.:16:43.

This 'exit bill' is one of the key sticking points.

:16:44.:16:45.

It could include the UK's share of EU commitments due before

:16:46.:16:48.

the Brexit deadline, as well as pension

:16:49.:16:49.

payments for EU staff - amongst other obligations.

:16:50.:16:55.

Michel Barnier also mentioned the rights of EU

:16:56.:17:08.

citizens' in the UK - we already know the EU is not

:17:09.:17:11.

satisfied with the UK's current offer on that issue.

:17:12.:17:23.

And he said the European Court of Justice had to be the "ultimate

:17:24.:17:26.

guarantor" of those citizens rights - the UK Government

:17:27.:17:28.

When you see this clip, you can see how he came to that conclusion. We

:17:29.:17:54.

have published nine new position papers so far. Under different

:17:55.:18:04.

issues. The new positions are clear. We now need to know the UK's

:18:05.:18:10.

position on each of the issues, in order to make progress. We need to

:18:11.:18:20.

know which points we agree, at which point we disagree. So we can

:18:21.:18:29.

negotiate. In earnest. A paper from the UK Government position outlining

the position is set to be published on Thursday.

MAP They left from Shan-jiang City in Guangdong province on Tuesday.

:18:48.:18:49.

The Chinese say the base will facilitate peacekeeping

:18:50.:18:52.

and humanitarian aid and - and for military co-operation.

:18:53.:18:55.

Djibouti is a tiny country at the horn of Africa,

:18:56.:18:57.

and shares borders with Eritrea, Ethiopia and Somalia.

:18:58.:19:08.

It's considered a favourable location, the US, Japan and France

:19:09.:19:11.

also have military bases there, because it sits near one

:19:12.:19:14.

of the world's busiest shipping routes on the Suez Canal.

:19:15.:19:17.

It's also seen as a stable country in an volatile region.

:19:18.:19:20.

The military is far from the limit of China's ambitions.

:19:21.:19:29.

Next let's go to Almaty in Kazakhstan.

:19:30.:19:31.

We've covered China's plans to create a new silk

The BBC's China Editor Carrie Gracie is travelling along all 11,000km

:19:34.:19:38.

For two centuries, Central Asia was Russia's backyard.

:19:39.:19:57.

Kazakhstan got its independence when the Soviet Union collapsed.

:19:58.:20:06.

But Russian remained the language of business - until now.

:20:07.:20:08.

This is China's new Silk Road in action.

:20:09.:20:10.

:20:39.:20:40.

If this project goes well, it will serve as a model for others.

:20:41.:20:43.

China says its plans are for the benefit of all.

:20:44.:20:45.

But most jobs here will go to Chinese workers, and the loan

:20:46.:20:48.

It's not just building across Central Asia,

:20:49.:20:51.

China is buying into banks and oil fields too.

:20:52.:20:53.

In one village, a kindergarten has become a hostel for Chinese workers.

:20:54.:20:58.

Ardak Kubasheva complains of pollution, and jobs

:20:59.:21:00.

TRANSLATION: The Chinese have done nothing.

:21:01.:21:32.

There's a huge oil industry here, but no jobs or facilities

:21:33.:21:34.

We want to live decently, so that we won't be

Government intimidation makes many Kazakhs cautious on camera.

:21:39.:21:41.

But, privately, several accused Chinese companies

:21:42.:21:42.

China says its presence abroad is a win-win,

:21:43.:21:45.

a win for China and a win for the people in its path.

:21:46.:21:49.

They say their oil wealth is going elsewhere and that that

:21:50.:21:53.

"win-win" means China wins once, and then China wins again.

:21:54.:21:55.

Back at Almaty's Zenkov Cathedral, Dosym Satpaev says the nations

:21:56.:21:58.

of Central Asia are like billiard balls in a game between the big

:21:59.:22:01.

China, I believe it will be like some threat

:22:02.:22:20.

Because for China, Kazakhstan is not an equal partner.

:22:21.:22:24.

For China, Kazakhstan only is like one of the players,

:22:25.:22:26.

That game stretches far beyond these mountains.

:22:27.:22:36.

But already it's changing lives, shaping the destiny of young nations

:22:37.:22:39.

A trillion-tonne iceberg has broken away from Antarctica.

MAP It's leaving the Larsen C iceshelf which is on the eastern

A Nasa satellite spotted the movement earlier.

:23:09.:23:29.

This is the satellite image that was captured.

:23:30.:23:31.

You can clearly see the ridge where the ice broke away.

:23:32.:23:34.

It's one of the biggest icebergs ever recorded,

the satellite era. Back in the 1950s, the US Navy spotted one they

:24:25.:24:30.

thought or something like 35,000 square kilometres. The size of

:24:31.:24:36.

Belgium. No satellites to confirm it. Other places have been warming

:24:37.:24:40.

melting quite rapidly. We don't think in this instance it is the

:24:41.:24:47.

case. Probably what the ice stars. This is what we're seeing.
