Hello. Welcome to Outside Source.

North Korea has fired an

0:00:080:00:14

unidentified ballistic missile.

That's according to the South

0:00:140:00:18

Koreas. We're live at the US State

Department. Two top Democrats have

0:00:180:00:22

pulled out a key meeting with

President Trump, after he attacked

0:00:220:00:25

them on Twitter. Katty Kay will

explain that one. The Pope has urged

0:00:250:00:30

Myanmar's ethnic groups to respect

each others' rights but made no

0:00:300:00:34

mention of the Rohingya Muslims

during his visit there. We'll hear

0:00:340:00:39

on the latest from the submarine

that disappeared in the South

0:00:390:00:42

Atlantic.

0:00:420:00:50

Just over two hours ago, this came

in from - into the BBC News room. It

0:00:590:01:07

was from the South Korea news

agency, citing the staff there,

0:01:070:01:13

saying North Korea fired a ballistic

missile. Not long after that, we got

0:01:130:01:16

a statement from the Pentagon saying

at broxly 130pm, 1830GMT, we

0:01:160:01:23

detected a probable missile launch

from North Korea. It went on, we're

0:01:230:01:26

in the process of assessing the

situation and will provide

0:01:260:01:29

additional details when available.

Also, South Korean officials are

0:01:290:01:34

being quoted saying they believe the

launch was made from a city called

0:01:340:01:39

Pyongsong. It was reported this

missile was fired over the sea

0:01:390:01:43

between South Korea and Japan. It's

worth adding that yesterday Japan

0:01:430:01:47

detected radio signals which

suggested North Korea may be

0:01:470:01:52

preparing for another missile

launch. Let's speak to our

0:01:520:01:56

correspondent live at the US State

Department. Any missile test is

0:01:560:01:59

going to be significant. Do we have

any clues as to what kind of missile

0:01:590:02:02

this was?

0:02:020:02:12

Pentagon said initial reports are

that it's an intercontinental

0:02:130:02:20

ballistic missile. But it was

determined that this test launch did

0:02:200:02:25

not pose a threat to North America

or to US allies. In terms of the

0:02:250:02:31

actual launch, based on figures from

the Pentagon from the South Koreans

0:02:310:02:34

and Japanese, it flew about a

thousand kilometres. It reached an

0:02:340:02:38

altitude of 4,000 kilometres, which

is higher than a previous similar

0:02:380:02:43

launch back in July. It broke up

into pieces before it landed in the

0:02:430:02:47

Sea of Japan. So still problems with

the missiles, but clearly North

0:02:470:02:51

Korea is developing its missile

capability despite sanctions and the

0:02:510:02:55

US campaign to isolate it.

It's been

two months since the last test. I

0:02:550:02:59

guess with this one happening, there

goes the theory that perhaps

0:02:590:03:04

Pyongyang was cooling on the idea of

pursuing this.

Yeah, it's always

0:03:040:03:08

speculation. About why pong yong

does what it does or doesn't do what

0:03:080:03:15

it doesn't do. Two months without a

missile had some hoping that perhaps

0:03:150:03:19

the campaign was working, that

perhaps Pyongyang was considering

0:03:190:03:23

the talks that the Americans are

asking for. This being on the

0:03:230:03:28

pre-condition that it agreed, that

ultimately it will give up its

0:03:280:03:31

weapons programme, something that

Pyongyang has said it will never do.

0:03:310:03:34

There are more simple explanations

for why they might not have been

0:03:340:03:38

firing missiles. At this time of

year, they don't tend to fire a lot

0:03:380:03:41

of missiles because of the weather.

Who knows, we did get a bit of a

0:03:410:03:44

statement from President Trump in

the last few minutes. He said,

0:03:440:03:48

"We'll take care of it." The Defence

Secretary is in the room, we've had

0:03:480:03:54

a long discussion, it is a situation

that we will handle. But Mr Trump

0:03:540:03:58

was a bit more preoccupied today

with domestic issues than this test.

0:03:580:04:03

Barbara, thank you very much.

Barbara read thering from the

0:04:030:04:07

transcript of this statement from

Donald Trump, which has been

0:04:070:04:10

supplied to all the main news

organisations. I can play you some

0:04:100:04:14

of what the president has been

saying. Here it is

Thank you very

0:04:140:04:18

much. As you probably have heard,

and some of you have reported, a

0:04:180:04:24

missile was launched a little while

ago from North Korea. I will only

0:04:240:04:28

tell thaw we will take care of it.

We have general Mattis in the room

0:04:280:04:33

with us. We've had a long discussion

on it. It is a situation that we

0:04:330:04:37

will handle.

We'll take care of it,

we'll handle it says the president.

0:04:370:04:43

We await details on precisely how he

intends to do that. Let's carry on

0:04:430:04:48

talking about Donald Trump. He was

supposed to be meeting Kong

0:04:480:04:51

compressional leaders today to

thrash out extending the funding of

0:04:510:04:54

the US Government. That meeting was

going to include the senior

0:04:540:05:00

Democrats Nancy Pelosi and Chuck

Shcumer. Then

0:05:000:05:06

Democrats Nancy Pelosi and Chuck

Shcumer. Then he tweeted: What could

0:05:070:05:15

probably go wrong with a tweet like

that? Not long after that, they put

0:05:150:05:20

out a statement:

0:05:200:05:31

In other words they pulled out of

the meeting. On top of all this, the

0:05:320:05:36

president's trying to assemble

enough support on Capitol Hill to

0:05:360:05:40

get tax reforms through. There's a

lot going on. I've been talking to

0:05:400:05:43

Katty Kay in Washington. Here she is

on whether the Democrats can

0:05:430:05:49

actually by pass Donald Trump when

it comes to government funding.

Not

0:05:490:05:52

entirely. In the end they will have

to deal with the White House. This

0:05:520:05:55

is the problem that all members of

Congress, from both political

0:05:550:05:58

parties have. Look, it's not easy

for them on Capitol Hill at the

0:05:580:06:01

moment. They wake up every morning

wondering who is going to be the

0:06:010:06:05

latest senator to be criticised on

Twitter by the president. He's now,

0:06:050:06:11

by the latest calculations,

criticised one in five Republican

0:06:110:06:16

senators publicly. You might think

that makes Capitol Hill say OK,

0:06:160:06:19

right, we're backing away from all.

This in the end they need the White

0:06:190:06:22

House there to get the votes through

for things to get on the phone, to

0:06:220:06:25

call up members of Congress, to call

up the senators. They do all have to

0:06:250:06:29

work together. But you're seeing

this, let's face it, slightly school

0:06:290:06:35

yard battle going on between Nancy

Pelosi and Chuck Schumer and

0:06:350:06:41

President Trump, and you wonder when

the adults will return to

0:06:410:06:43

Washington.

Part reason they're

going through this dance is it's not

0:06:430:06:48

just about government funding, it's

about broader issues such as

0:06:480:06:51

immigration, is that right?

Yes,

thats what the Democrats last time

0:06:510:06:53

around, that they did do a deal with

President Trump to keep the

0:06:530:06:57

government open for three months. In

return, they thought they had a deal

0:06:570:07:01

on these so-called dreamers, the

young people who were brought to

0:07:010:07:05

America by their parents illegally,

but who were given protected status

0:07:050:07:09

under President Obama. They want to

protect those young people. They

0:07:090:07:12

thought they'd got some kind of deal

from the president in order to do

0:07:120:07:16

that. They will carry on holding out

for that. They don't want to be seen

0:07:160:07:22

as backing away from protecting the

dreamers. That's probably the sing

0:07:220:07:25

the most important issue that

they're going to ask for in exchange

0:07:250:07:28

for helping keeping the government

open.

That's one thing I want to ask

0:07:280:07:31

you about. The other is tax. Stay

with us, please. Because while that

0:07:310:07:34

meeting may not be going ahead,

there have been meetings between

0:07:340:07:37

Donald Trump and Republicans. He's

trying to sell his tax reforms to

0:07:370:07:40

them. It's not proving plain

sailing. This report from the

0:07:400:07:47

non-partisan Congressional office

won't help. Its numbers show those

0:07:470:07:51

earning less are likely to be

hardest hit by the changes. If you

0:07:510:07:54

look at the assessment of a data

reporter not New York Times. He says

0:07:540:07:59

in 2018, 30% of the middle class

will be hit hardest by these plans.

0:07:590:08:05

By 2027, it could be between 50% and

100%. I guess Donald Trump would

0:08:050:08:11

dismiss the New York Times as fake

news, it's harder to dismiss a

0:08:110:08:14

non-partisan report.

Right. I this I

this is a game of pick your expert.

0:08:140:08:19

I spoke to a senior Republican

senator just about a couple of hours

0:08:190:08:22

ago, who sits on the finance

committee. He's the guy who's been

0:08:220:08:25

responsible for trying to usher this

tax reform proposal through. I put

0:08:250:08:28

it to him that there are these

reports out there and that this tax

0:08:280:08:32

reform bill will actually increase

the American deficit by something

0:08:320:08:36

like $2 trillion. He said he prefers

to believe the other economists not

0:08:360:08:40

saying that. When you get into

economics you pick the statistics

0:08:400:08:44

that seem to pack up your particular

proposal. We know that according to

0:08:440:08:49

opinion polls, this tax reform plan

is not particularly popular with the

0:08:490:08:53

American public. If it gets passed

into law and people start feeling

0:08:530:08:57

it, if the middle class starts feel

it, some time around the end of next

0:08:570:09:02

year, heading into the mid-term

elections, they may say, listen,

0:09:020:09:05

this was the Republican Party who

gave us a tax reform plan which has

0:09:050:09:09

made us poorer not richer and we're

not sure we want to vote these

0:09:090:09:12

people back into office. What the

Republicans are saying is that this

0:09:120:09:14

tax reform plan will increase

economic growth in the country and

0:09:140:09:18

that will lift up everybody and

everybody will be better off because

0:09:180:09:21

of that.

One broader question for

you. I remember a while back now,

0:09:210:09:27

Rahm Emmanuel, when Chief of Staff

for President Obama at 2008 saying

0:09:270:09:31

at the beginning of your presidency

you have the most political capital

0:09:310:09:36

and you have to decide how to spend

it. Donald Trump had a lot of

0:09:360:09:40

political capital, we're approaching

the end of the year and it's not

0:09:400:09:43

clear in terms of legislation what

he's got in return.

Yeah, you and I

0:09:430:09:47

might feel we're in a washing

machine every day with the Trump

0:09:470:09:51

administration. So much news, so

many tweets are sent out, so many

0:09:510:09:55

people being criticise. If you look

in terms of legislative

0:09:550:09:59

achievements, this has been a

spectacularly uneventful presidency.

0:09:590:10:02

They haven't done all the things

they wanted to do, despite the fact

0:10:020:10:05

they have the House of

Representatives, the Senate, the

0:10:050:10:07

White House and the Supreme Court in

their favour. That's a problem too.

0:10:070:10:10

Voters are going to say, hold on, we

handed you guys an enormous amount

0:10:100:10:14

of power and you haven't used it to

achieve very much for us. We want

0:10:140:10:18

some kind of results, which is why

this tax reform bill, which is

0:10:180:10:24

arcane and a bit dry, it is

politically very important. They

0:10:240:10:28

need a within and they would like it

-- win and they would like it before

0:10:280:10:32

the end of the year.

You can see

catty and Christian Fraser on Beyond

0:10:320:10:36

100 Days.

Now next we turn to Myanmar. You

0:10:360:10:40

might have thought the Pope would

want to use his visit there to talk

0:10:400:10:44

about the Rohingya Muslims. They are

victims of text book ethnic

0:10:440:10:47

cleansing, according to the UN.

0:10:470:10:49

victims of text book ethnic

cleansing, according to the UN. But

0:10:490:10:49

he didn't. In a speech earlier,

there was plenty on leaders in

0:10:490:10:54

Myanmar respecting human rights, but

not a word about the Rohingya.

0:10:540:10:58

That's not an oversight. This word

itself is potent in Myanmar. This is

0:10:580:11:03

how the Rohingyas refer to

themselves, but many in Myanmar

0:11:030:11:07

don't use it. They refer to them as

bell gallies. In other words --

0:11:070:11:14

Bengalis, by not using that word the

Pope opted out of controversy's way.

0:11:140:11:22

Over 600,000 Rohingya, mainly from

Rakhine State, have gone into the

0:11:220:11:26

Bangladesh because of a military

crack down. That crack down began in

0:11:260:11:31

August, after attacks by Rohingya

militants. The director of Human

0:11:310:11:34

Rights Watch cuts to it in his

criticism saying:

0:11:340:11:40

So some stark criticism for the

Pope. Bear in mind at this point we

0:11:460:11:49

saw from the BBC's Jonathan Head

that Pope Francis is meeting senior

0:11:490:11:54

military figures, but Jonathan says:

Anything he says will they actually

0:11:540:12:00

influence these uncompromising

figures? Jonathan says that seems

0:12:000:12:04

doubtful. Our correspondent has been

covering the Pope's visit.

0:12:040:12:17

A military band announces the

arrival of Pope Francis. A world

0:12:250:12:29

away from the terror felt by 600,000

Rohingya Muslims who, since August,

0:12:290:12:33

have fled into Bangladesh. Today

Pope Francis met with Myanmar's de

0:12:330:12:37

facto leader, Aung San Suu Kyi. With

human rights organisations urging

0:12:370:12:42

him to name the Rohingya as victims,

despite Myanmar not recognising them

0:12:420:12:47

as citizens. Myanmar's civilian

leader, who shares power with the

0:12:470:12:54

army, spoke first, acknowledging the

focus on Rakhine, where Rohingya

0:12:540:12:57

have lived for generations.

As we

address long standing issues, the

0:12:570:13:03

support of our people and of good

friends, who only wish to see us

0:13:030:13:08

succeed in our endeavours, has been

invaluable.

Aung San Suu Kyi chose

0:13:080:13:13

to say little about the crisis.

Expectations then shifted to Pope

0:13:130:13:19

Francis.

TRANSLATION:

The future of Myanmar

0:13:190:13:23

must be peace based on respect for

the dignity and right of each member

0:13:230:13:27

of society. Respect for each ethnic

group and its identity, none

0:13:270:13:31

excluded.

Pope Francis praised the

United Nations, but he did not refer

0:13:310:13:38

to the UN's accusation that Myanmar

has engaged in ethnic cleansing. And

0:13:380:13:42

while he said the future of this

nation must include all people,

0:13:420:13:47

regardless of their race and

religion, he did not use the word

0:13:470:13:52

"Rohingya". Those working with

Rohingya refugees say the Pope

0:13:520:13:59

surrendered his moral authority by

not offering an explicit criticism.

0:13:590:14:04

But many in a country that's 75%

Buddhist were relieved he didn't

0:14:040:14:09

mention the Rohingya by name.

TRANSLATION:

It was wise of him not

0:14:090:14:14

to use the world. The world is

hearing the wrong message.

The Pope

0:14:140:14:19

may also have been mindful of

potential repercussions for another

0:14:190:14:23

religious minority. Christians make

up just 6% of the population here

0:14:230:14:29

and many have travelled to take part

in a special mass, where Pope

0:14:290:14:34

Francis will preside tomorrow.

0:14:340:14:42

In a few minutes we turn to Nairobi,

where the president has been sworn

0:14:420:14:49

in for a second term. On the streets

of Nairobi today there wasn't unity.

0:14:490:15:03

The British Government is

introducing new measures aimed at

0:15:030:15:06

reducing the numbers of deaths and

serious injuries during child birth.

0:15:060:15:09

Independent investigations will now

be carried out into a thousand cases

0:15:090:15:13

every year, where the babies die

unexpectedly or are left with a

0:15:130:15:17

severe brain injury. Coroners could

be given the power to look at

0:15:170:15:20

stillbirths for the first time. The

UK has some of the highest levels of

0:15:200:15:24

stillbirth in western Europe. The

chief executive of SANS, the

0:15:240:15:31

stillbirth and neonatal death

charity, explains the gravity of the

0:15:310:15:34

situation.

We're talking about 5,500

a year, which is 15 every day. I

0:15:340:15:40

think that's a figure that not many

people know and is far too high. I

0:15:400:15:47

think the idea of reducing the

number of deaths by 20% by 2020 is

0:15:470:15:53

manageable. And bringing in the

focus to 2025 is really important

0:15:530:15:57

because then we keep the momentum

going.

0:15:570:16:10

This is Outside Source. We're live

in the BBC News room. Our lead story

0:16:110:16:15

concerns North Korea. It's fired a

ballistic missile, according to the

0:16:150:16:21

South Koreans and Americans, again

raising tensions on the peninsula.

0:16:210:16:24

We bring you the main stories from

BBC World Service. One of the most

0:16:240:16:30

prominent Saudis being held in an

anticorruption drive is reported to

0:16:300:16:34

have been freed after more than

three weeks. Several members of the

0:16:340:16:37

Saudi royal family have tweeted

their joy that the Prince has been

0:16:370:16:41

released, though there hasn't been

official confirmation.

0:16:410:16:45

Ireland's Deputy Prime Minister has

stepped down in the midst of

Well, we've learned more about the

0:16:590:17:04

Royal Wedding next year. Prince

Harry and the American actress

0:17:040:17:07

Meghan Markle will marry in May. It

will take place at St George's

0:17:070:17:11

Chapel in Windsor Castle. We're also

told that Meghan Markle will become

0:17:110:17:17

a British citizen and the royal

family will be covering the cost of

0:17:170:17:22

Reading wedding and reception. --

cost of the wedding and reception

0:17:220:17:27

They have, in the words of their

spokesman, been overwhelmed by the

0:17:270:17:30

amount of support they've received

from Britain and elsewhere in the

0:17:300:17:33

world to the news of their

engagement. And now, Harry and

0:17:330:17:37

Meghan are starting to organise the

wedding, taking charge over all

0:17:370:17:41

aspects of the ceremony themselves,

according to their officials. As

0:17:410:17:45

they do so, other members of the

royal family have been expressing

0:17:450:17:49

their happiness at the news of the

engagement.

William and I are

absolutely thrilled. It's such

exciting news. It's a really happy

0:17:520:17:56

time for any couple. We wish them

all the best and hope they enjoy

0:17:560:18:00

this happy moment.

America's loss is

our gain. We're all absolutely

0:18:000:18:04

delighted, as you can see, they're

so happy. Sometimes, you know, in a

0:18:040:18:10

climate where we're surrounded by a

lot of bad news, it's a real joy to

0:18:100:18:14

have a bit of good news for once.

The first big decision in terms of

0:18:140:18:18

the wedding planning is the venue.

The ceremony will take place inside

0:18:180:18:23

Windsor Castle in the historic St

George's Chapel. The month on the

0:18:230:18:28

invitations will be May, a precise

date has still to be decided. The

0:18:280:18:34

15th century chapel, festooned with

the banners of the knights of the

0:18:340:18:37

garter is where Harry was

Christianed. The disadvantage is the

0:18:370:18:40

size. It can seat only 800 guests,

fewer than half the capacity of

0:18:400:18:45

Westminster Abbey. It is, though, a

more intimate setting. It was where

0:18:450:18:50

the marriage of the Prince of Wales

and the Duchess of Cornwall was

0:18:500:18:53

blessed in 2005, after their wedding

in a register office. In Windsor

0:18:530:18:59

today, reaction to having another

Royal Wedding in the town was

0:18:590:19:02

predictably positive.

Absolutely

amazing. We're so excited about it.

0:19:020:19:06

Jo that's fantastic. Really nice,

yeah, lovely. It will be good for

0:19:060:19:10

Windsor as well, really good.

I live

locally. It will be nice to have

0:19:100:19:14

such a fabulous event in the local

area.

Aside from wedding

0:19:140:19:18

preparations Meghan will be applying

for British citizenship, as she made

0:19:180:19:22

clear in yesterday's interview, she

wants to get to know Britain better.

0:19:220:19:26

I think in these beginning few

months and now being boots on the

0:19:260:19:30

ground in the UK, I'm excited to

just really get to know more about

0:19:300:19:35

the different communities here,

smaller organisations who are

0:19:350:19:38

working on the same causes that I've

always been passionate about.

That

0:19:380:19:42

process of getting to know her new

country will start this Friday in

0:19:420:19:46

Nottingham, the city will witness

the first official engagement of the

0:19:460:19:50

new royal team Prince Harry and

Meghan Markle.

0:19:500:19:57

Of course, there's much more on the

royal engagement on the BBC website.

0:19:570:20:01

Now let's turn to the US again,

because the US Federal Reserve looks

0:20:010:20:05

likely to raise interest rates next

month. At least that's what Jerome

0:20:050:20:10

Powell has been saying. He's the

nominee to be the head of the fed.

0:20:100:20:13

He signalled this earlier during a

confirmation hearing. I guess, if he

0:20:130:20:19

wants it to happen, it's going to

happen, right?

Well he was really

0:20:190:20:24

careful in the kind of messaging

that he was presenting when he was

0:20:240:20:28

testifying today on Capitol Hill.

There say protocol that exists when

0:20:280:20:33

it comes to making these decisions.

It is more of a group decision

0:20:330:20:38

making. He really tried to tread

carefully when law makers were

0:20:380:20:42

asking him directly - well, are we

going to see a rate rise or not? I

0:20:420:20:46

want to throw to a clip, so you can

have a listen to a bit of what he

0:20:460:20:51

said in his confirmation hearing.

The fed remained committed after the

0:20:510:20:57

financial crisis to provide

significant accommodation to the

0:20:570:21:00

economy as it recovered. When I

joined in 2012, about five years

0:21:000:21:06

ago, I think unemployment was still

above 8%. I think we've been patient

0:21:060:21:13

in removing accommodation and I

think that patience has served us

0:21:130:21:16

well. I think now the economy is

strong, unemployment is low, growth

0:21:160:21:21

is strong, in fact, it appears to

have picked up. So it's time for us

0:21:210:21:26

to be normalising interest rates and

the size of the balance sheet as

0:21:260:21:30

well.

If that sounds familiar, it

actually should. Because it's very

0:21:300:21:35

close to the kinds of things that

we've heard from the current chair,

0:21:350:21:40

whom Mr Powell is going to take over

from in February. In terms of moving

0:21:400:21:46

from one fed chair to another, the

fact that we're seeing so many

0:21:460:21:51

similarities between the two in

terms of what they think the

0:21:510:21:54

direction of the fed is going to be

going forward that's really good

0:21:540:21:57

news for the financial markets

because it really signals a lot of

0:21:570:22:01

stability going forward.

We talk

often about interest rate rises or

0:22:010:22:06

speculation around interest rate

rises in the US. Why are they so

0:22:060:22:10

important to the not just the US

economy, but actually the global

0:22:100:22:12

economy sf

So much of what happening

on the global economy actually

0:22:120:22:17

happens in US dollars. When people

want to make money, they come to the

0:22:170:22:22

United States. They will trade their

companies in the United States if

0:22:220:22:25

they want to raise capital. A lot of

what happens is done so in US

0:22:250:22:31

currency. Also, what happens with

the US currency in terms of interest

0:22:310:22:35

rates also has an influence on

interest rates all around the world.

0:22:350:22:38

So it's really pretty important to

pay attention to whether you're in

0:22:380:22:42

the United States or if you're

elsewhere in the world.

Thank you

0:22:420:22:46

very much indeed.

Now let's talk about airBus, Rolls

0:22:460:22:52

Royce and Siemens. They are joining

forces to develop a hybrid electric

0:22:520:22:57

engine for planes. Each is going to

invest tens of millions of dollars

0:22:570:23:01

into this programme. This is a tiny

two seater electric plane developed

0:23:010:23:08

by airBus. It can run entirely on

batteries or over longer distances

0:23:080:23:13

as a hybrid with a conventional

engine helping to power the electric

0:23:130:23:18

motors. Now the company in tandem

with Siemens and Rolls Royce wants

0:23:180:23:24

to convert a regional passenger jet.

The idea is to develop technologies

0:23:240:23:29

which may one day be used in

commercial aircraft. And here's why

0:23:290:23:33

they're doing it: Hybrid aircraft

should use less fuel than

0:23:330:23:37

conventional planes and since fuel

is one of the biggest costs airlines

0:23:370:23:40

face, it should be a lot cheaper to

run. Secondly, electric motors are

0:23:400:23:46

quieter than jet engines. That means

an electric or hybrid plane could be

0:23:460:23:51

used for night flights or to fly

into city centres. There's pollution

0:23:510:23:57

too, a hybrid plane should emit less

knocks and carbon dioxide than a

0:23:570:24:02

conventional plane. With air traffic

scheduled to double over 20 years

0:24:020:24:06

reducing emissions could be an

absolute priority.

0:24:060:24:11

Wanted to mention this, so many

people are sharing it online. This

0:24:110:24:14

is a report posted on the front of

the Telegraph's website reporting

0:24:140:24:18

that British and EU negotiators have

reached a deal on the so-called

0:24:180:24:22

Brexit divorce bill. That's one of

the three key issues that needs to

0:24:220:24:25

be resolved for the talks to

progress. This article quotes

0:24:250:24:31

sources as confirming, sources on

both sides that assaying an

0:24:310:24:34

agreement in principle has been

reached over the EU's demand for a

0:24:340:24:39

60 billion euro financial settlement

ahead of a meeting on Monday between

0:24:390:24:43

Theresa May, the Prime Minister, and

Jean-Claude Juncker, President Ever

0:24:430:24:47

the European Commission. We

understand the final figure will be

0:24:470:24:51

between 45 billion euros and 55

billion euros. The thing to

0:24:510:24:55

emphasise here is that at BBC News,

we can't confirm this story, but

0:24:550:24:59

already there's been reaction to it.

The Financial Times has been

0:24:590:25:02

reporting that the pound jumped on

this report being released. We know

0:25:020:25:06

the British Government is denying

the story and the European Union has

0:25:060:25:11

declined to comment. So make of all

that what you will. We didn't want

0:25:110:25:15

to ignore it completely because it's

being so widely covered. Now a quick

0:25:150:25:19

reminder that North Korea has

carried out a missile test, just as

0:25:190:25:22

we end this half of Outside Source,

let me play you what President Trump

0:25:220:25:27

said about that.

Thank you very

much. As you probably have heard,

0:25:270:25:32

and some of you have reported a

missile was launched a little while

0:25:320:25:36

ago from North Korea. I will only

tell you that we will take care of

0:25:360:25:39

it. We have General Matison in the

room with us. We've had a long

0:25:390:25:46

discussion on it. It is a situation

that we will handle.

In the next

0:25:460:25:51

half, we have stories from Burkina

Faso, from Germany and also from

0:25:510:25:55

Kenya. See you then.

0:25:550:25:58

Hello there. November has been a

very stormy month across parts of

0:26:070:26:12

the west in particular the North

West United States and western

0:26:120:26:15

Canada. Looks like the month is

going to end on a stormy note too

0:26:150:26:18

with another round of low pressure

moving through during Tuesday and

0:26:180:26:22

Wednesday, bringing heavy rain,

strong winds and mountain snow. We

0:26:220:26:25

have another system poised to push

in, heading into Thursday and

0:26:250:26:27

Friday. Now this system will be

bringing very heavy snow to British

0:26:270:26:32

Colombia, heavy rain to lower

levels. Ahead of it there should be

0:26:320:26:35

dry weather for a time across

Washington state, Oregon and

0:26:350:26:39

northern California too. It won't be

long until Wednesday night,

0:26:390:26:42

Thursday, that system makes inroads

and brings a lot of very heavy rain

0:26:420:26:46

to Vancouver, Seattle and certainly

to Portland. For Los Angeles there

0:26:460:26:50

it is fine and dry. Into South East

Asia, we're looking at exceptionally

0:26:500:26:54

heavy rain throughout the this week.

We've got a lot more to come. If we

0:26:540:27:00

just zoom into java here, there has

been a tropical storm developing off

0:27:000:27:04

the south coast. This system is

moving away from land and will

0:27:040:27:07

eventually weaken out in open

waters. But there's going to be

0:27:070:27:10

widespread heavy thunder storms

around this part of the world and

0:27:100:27:14

even further north to much of

Malaysia, southern Thailand

0:27:140:27:18

torrential down pours in the next

couple of days, so the risk of land

0:27:180:27:21

slides and flash flooding. This

system is tied into heavy rain

0:27:210:27:25

across the Bay of Bengal into

southern India and Sri Lanka. Can

0:27:250:27:28

you see in the last 24 hours,

explosive cloud development here

0:27:280:27:31

with so much rain falling. Now as we

head on deeper into the week, it

0:27:310:27:36

looks like this system might develop

into a tropical storm, potentially

0:27:360:27:41

heading into the weekend. We could

look at damaging winds and

0:27:410:27:44

torrential rain. We'll keep you

posted on this. Into Europe now.

0:27:440:27:50

This area of low pressure has been

quite potent the last 24 hours. Its

0:27:500:27:54

brought heavy thunder storms to the

Eastern Mediterranean. In towards

0:27:540:27:58

the Black Sea. We now focus our

attention to this area of low

0:27:580:28:02

pressure, moving into southern

Portugal, central southern Spain.

0:28:020:28:05

This is going to continue to move

eastwards across the Mediterranean,

0:28:050:28:09

pick up moisture and warmth over the

warm waters here and develop into an

0:28:090:28:13

intense area of low pressure as it

reaches Greece and the Balkans by

0:28:130:28:16

the end of the week, we could be

looking at significant flooding once

0:28:160:28:18

again. Now much of western Europe

will see a real surge of cold air

0:28:180:28:24

moving down from the Arctic,

spreading across the British Isles

0:28:240:28:26

into much of France and will reach

as low as central southern Spain and

0:28:260:28:31

parts of Corsica and Sardinia,

unusually cold there for this time

0:28:310:28:34

of year. Back home, it's going to be

another cold day on Wednesday. Add

0:28:340:28:38

on that wind chill across the north

and the east, because of the strong

0:28:380:28:42

winds, it will feel bitter cold.

Plenty of showers here, some of them

0:28:420:28:46

wintry as well. The best of sunshine

southern and western areas.

0:28:460:28:49

Temperatures three to seven degrees.

It's set to stay really cold for the

0:28:490:28:56

rest of the week. A full forecast in

about half an hour.

0:28:560:29:03

Hello, I'm Ros Atkins with Outside

Source. These are some of the main

0:30:130:30:16

stories in the BBC newsroom. North

Korea has fired an unidentified

0:30:160:30:20

ballistic missile according to

0:30:200:30:21

ballistic missile according to the

South Koreans. Two top Democrats

0:30:210:30:23

pulled out of a key meeting with

Donald Trump on the funding of the

0:30:230:30:27

US Government after he attacked them

on Twitter. The Pope is Arjun

0:30:270:30:31

Myanmar's ethnic groups to respect

each other's right -- each other's

0:30:310:30:37

leaders' rights but -- each others'

rates but he made no mention by name

0:30:370:30:44

of the Rohingya Muslims who had to

flee to Bangladesh. And we will have

0:30:440:30:47

more on the missing submarine.

0:30:470:30:58

Outside Source is an hour of the

biggest global stories brought to

0:31:000:31:05

you here from inside the BBC

newsroom and we will start this half

0:31:050:31:09

in Kenya, because Uhuru Kenyatta has

been sworn in for a second term as

0:31:090:31:15

president and he spoke of uniting

the nation, but frankly that looked

0:31:150:31:19

a little way off. Because well the

inauguration ceremony was happening

0:31:190:31:26

in Nairobi, the opposition leader

Raila Odinga was taking part in a

0:31:260:31:32

second. Given he didn't take part in

the election, it looks unlikely, but

0:31:320:31:36

remember there was a rerun because

the first was declared void after

0:31:360:31:40

irregularities and then Raila Odinga

pulled out of the second one because

0:31:400:31:45

he didn't feel enough had been done

to deal with those irregularities.

0:31:450:31:47

These are some of the pictures we

have of clashes between the

0:31:470:31:51

protesters and police. We know that

two people died during these

0:31:510:31:54

clashes, and as I said that

President today has been emphasising

0:31:540:32:01

unity. Here he is earlier...

0:32:010:32:12

I, too, listened carefully to my

competitors, and I will try to

0:32:140:32:21

incorporate their ideas. This is

because the election was not a

0:32:210:32:23

contest between a good dream and a

bad dream. It was a contest between

0:32:230:32:32

two competing visions.

That was the

president in Nairobi. Our

0:32:320:32:37

correspondent is there as well.

0:32:370:32:41

It is not lost on the president

that this is the deeply divided

0:32:410:32:44

country, and that's why he made that

very conciliatory speech.

0:32:440:32:46

However, it's going to take more

than a speech to reach

0:32:460:32:49

out to the opposition

and to unite the country.

0:32:490:32:51

This is a contest that was boycotted

by the opposition in

0:32:510:32:54

which the president won by 98%

of the vote, however the turnout

0:32:540:32:57

was historically low,

especially for this country,

0:32:570:32:58

at just 38%.

0:32:580:33:00

Less than half of the people

who voted during the first election

0:33:000:33:03

in August took part.

0:33:030:33:08

And so there is a lot that

still needs to be done,

0:33:080:33:11

to heal the people who do not

believe that the election

0:33:110:33:14

that was held was credible

and was legitimate.

0:33:140:33:16

On the other hand, the opposition

has today pronounced

0:33:160:33:18

that they will hold a swearing-in

ceremony for their leader

0:33:180:33:20

Raila Odinga, who said

that he will be sworn in on the 12th

0:33:200:33:23

of December, which is

Independence Day in Kenya.

0:33:230:33:25

A very significant day.

0:33:250:33:27

In the past, Mr Odinga has

threatened to have himself sworn in,

0:33:270:33:30

after he lost elections

which he said had

0:33:300:33:32

been stolen from him.

0:33:320:33:33

But he did not make good that

threat, so in a way the country

0:33:330:33:43

has heard that before,

but there is no telling

0:33:430:33:45

what will happen on the 12th

when the country will be holding

0:33:450:33:48

another big event,

just like today's,

0:33:480:33:49

to celebrate Independence Day.

0:33:490:33:59

But clearly from the events of today

the stand-off, politically,

0:34:030:34:05

still continues in this country,

and a lot still needs

0:34:050:34:07

to be done to bring

the different sides together.

0:34:070:34:15

Welcomer now we will move from east

to West Africa, because the French

0:34:150:34:21

president Emmanuel Macron is in

Burkina Faso and he has been

0:34:210:34:24

acknowledging it has taken far too

long to set up a west African force

0:34:240:34:28

designed to fight Islamist

extremism. We should put the sullen

0:34:280:34:31

context in terms of French

intervention in this part of the

0:34:310:34:34

world. In 2011 the French made a key

role in the Ivory Coast upholding

0:34:340:34:38

the election result, and a couple of

years later in 2013 France sent

0:34:380:34:44

troops to fight Islamists in Mali

and even sends Macron's election

0:34:440:34:48

this year he has been lobbying

Europe to back this idea of a West

0:34:480:34:52

African military force. This force

would not just operate in Burkina

0:34:520:34:56

Faso but the idea is it will take on

Islamist militants in Burkina Faso,

0:34:560:35:01

Mali, Mauritania, Niger and Chad. I

have been speaking to a regular

0:35:010:35:09

Outside Source on why this West

African force is taking so long.

0:35:090:35:15

Well, the excuse is money.

0:35:150:35:16

That's the problem.

0:35:160:35:17

I think he's been having much more

difficulties than he thought

0:35:170:35:20

to actually gather all the money

necessary, because his idea

0:35:200:35:22

is actually to have a French force

there, but also to reinforce

0:35:220:35:25

the regional military

forces on the ground,

0:35:250:35:27

because they would be the ones

who eventually would

0:35:270:35:29

take over anyway.

0:35:290:35:37

And he has been promised

more money from the US,

0:35:370:35:40

but I think it's been taking

a while to come concrete,

0:35:400:35:42

so basically that's

what he's been seeing today.

0:35:420:35:44

He said during the speech, and

really keen to be accelerated this.

0:35:440:35:51

Again, I want this to happen, so,

you know, hopefully this

0:35:510:35:54

is something he is really keen

to make happening.

0:35:540:35:56

is something he is really keen

to make happen.

0:35:560:36:06

Interesting to hear what he said

about tone, and how France was no

0:36:060:36:09

longer going to turn up and tell

Africa what to do?

0:36:090:36:11

Yes, it is interesting,

because he arrived in a context

0:36:110:36:14

where there was a lot of tension,

there was a grenade thrown

0:36:140:36:17

onto a bus last night,

then one of the minibuses

0:36:170:36:19

with a French delegation

was attacked today.

0:36:190:36:21

And then as he was doing the speech,

there was protest outside,

0:36:210:36:24

so obviously it is still always

around the same issue,

0:36:240:36:28

France and Africa, you know,

what is the relationship,

0:36:280:36:30

what do we have is a relationship

here?

0:36:300:36:32

And obviously now he is coming

to talk to the young people,

0:36:320:36:35

you know, obviously playing

the card, "I'm young,

0:36:350:36:37

I'm from a new generation,

I'm not going to tell

0:36:370:36:39

you what to do, you need

to take your future in your hands,"

0:36:390:36:43

but then that is all well and good

to say, but everyone knows

0:36:430:36:46

that the French and African

relationships have always been much

0:36:460:36:48

more underground, and we have been

really linked to, you know,

0:36:480:36:51

companies using resources.

0:36:510:37:00

So that's what people are protesting

against in Burkina Faso

0:37:000:37:02

and other countries,

so there is this huge movement

0:37:020:37:05

there called the Citizen Broom,

so they want to clean,

0:37:050:37:07

you know, the history

of Burkina Faso, and their

0:37:070:37:09

relationship with France.

0:37:090:37:10

So that's why they were there today,

and they are always kind of coming

0:37:100:37:14

out when the French politicians come

in, because they are fed up

0:37:140:37:16

with this relationship,

and they wanted to change.

0:37:160:37:18

And obviously in his speech,

that's what he was saying.

0:37:180:37:28

Now mayor in Germany has survived

the night attack that appears

0:37:300:37:34

connected to his pro-refugee policy.

This is Andreas Hollstein, the mayor

0:37:340:37:40

of a small town in the West of

Germany called Altena. As you can

0:37:400:37:43

see if we go even closer, it is a

small place, with around 17,000

0:37:430:37:48

residents. Well, it doesn't look

like that on the map but take my

0:37:480:37:51

word for it. It is a small place and

it has recently gotten bigger, in

0:37:510:37:54

part because it has

0:37:540:38:06

taken in 280 refugees. In fact they

have even won a national award for

0:38:060:38:09

doing so. That was part of Angela

Merkel's decision to allow a million

0:38:090:38:11

refugees and migrants to come to

Germany in 2015 and a little 2016.

0:38:110:38:14

Chancellor Merkel is appalled by

this attack, we are told. He was a

0:38:140:38:16

tweet from a German minister. We

should never accept attacks on

0:38:160:38:20

people just helping others. Our

country must not tolerate heated. We

0:38:200:38:23

can hear from the mayor and self now

on what happened. -- we can never

0:38:230:38:28

tolerate hatred.

0:38:280:38:30

TRANSLATION:

Then he turned to me,

and as has already been reported

0:38:300:38:32

coming at me if I was the mayor,

then without saying anything else

0:38:320:38:36

he took out a knife.

0:38:360:38:37

He said, "You'd let me die first

and you bring 200 refugees

0:38:370:38:40

He said, "You've let me die

of thirst and you bring 200 refugees

0:38:400:38:43

to Altena," then he was standing

behind me with a knife,

0:38:430:38:46

and the knife was at my throat.

0:38:460:38:48

The map is working now. You can see

this as a small town in the middle

0:38:480:38:51

of the German countryside. Here is

our German correspondent Jenny Hill

0:38:510:38:54

with more on the attack.

0:38:540:38:55

Today Andreas Hollstein warned

against what he described as growing

0:38:550:38:58

hatred and racism in German society.

0:38:580:39:03

This was at a press conference

where it became actually very clear

0:39:030:39:06

just how lucky he was to escape

with his life.

0:39:060:39:09

Mr Hollstein was still wearing

a large dressing over the wound

0:39:090:39:12

which he sustained in the attack

last night, when he was approached

0:39:120:39:22

by a man wielding

what we are told was

0:39:230:39:26

a 32-centimetre-long kitchen knife.

0:39:260:39:27

Now, police have said

that the attack was in part

0:39:270:39:29

politically motivated.

0:39:290:39:35

His attacker referred

to Mr Hollstein's decision to allow

0:39:350:39:37

more refugees into the town

of Altena, that he was

0:39:370:39:40

actually obliged to take

in and give shelter to,

0:39:400:39:42

but the police have also said

that the man was not only drunk

0:39:420:39:45

but had a history of mental

health problems too.

0:39:450:39:47

As you would expect,

the attack has shocked Germany.

0:39:470:39:49

It's rare for politicians

to be attacked like this,

0:39:490:39:51

although not unheard of.

0:39:510:39:52

Around two years ago the mayor

of Cologne was herself attacked

0:39:520:39:55

and barely survived in fact,

in what was described then

0:39:550:39:57

as a politically motivated knife

attack as well.

0:39:570:39:59

There are those who are very keen

to see that this illustrates

0:39:590:40:02

There are those who are very keen

to say that this illustrates

0:40:020:40:05

the deep divisions in the heart

of German society, the backlash

0:40:050:40:08

against Angela Merkel's decision

to allow a million migrants

0:40:080:40:10

into the country.

0:40:100:40:11

I would caution against such

dramatic analysis of this

0:40:110:40:13

particular development,

but it is fair to say that German

0:40:130:40:15

society has changed.

0:40:150:40:25

We saw that in the last general

election here when voters put

0:40:330:40:36

the far right party AFD

into the German parliament

0:40:360:40:38

for the very first time,

so things are shifting

0:40:380:40:40

and there are a lot

of concerns about Mrs Merkel's

0:40:400:40:43

refugee policy still.

0:40:430:40:44

Thanks to Jenny for that. You can

download the BBC News app from the

0:40:440:40:46

App Store or you can follow us

online here. I would like to go back

0:40:460:40:53

to the search for the Argentinian

submarine that has been missing in

0:40:530:40:56

the south Atlantic for 30 days. 44

people are on world and the starkest

0:40:560:41:02

fact is it it had enough oxygen for

seven days. We know it was returning

0:41:020:41:09

from a routine mission down to the

tip of South America, it was

0:41:090:41:15

supposed to be heading north and its

servers to report an electrical

0:41:150:41:18

breakdown, then it was allowed to

travel much more further north to

0:41:180:41:23

naval base. We have now been giving

more details of those initial

0:41:230:41:27

difficulties it got onto. We are

told that water entered its snorkel.

0:41:270:41:32

This is the snorkel at the top of

the submarine and once the water had

0:41:320:41:36

entered the store battery of the

submarine short-circuited and that

0:41:360:41:41

was obviously causing major

problems. But lots of people are

0:41:410:41:47

saying, why weren't we told this two

weeks ago? Daniel Gimenez arrows has

0:41:470:41:50

been covering this... -- Daniel in

Buena Sarries.

This is because it

0:41:500:41:55

was the military. They are not used

to the public, these are secret

0:41:550:42:00

defence and it tended to happen like

that. This is something that has

0:42:000:42:03

generated a lot of clashes with the

government, who is filled with

0:42:030:42:06

people who come from the business

scene clashing with the military,

0:42:060:42:13

who tend to use... Cannot

communicate what they do, like the

0:42:130:42:17

government does. In fact one of the

things that has shocked people is

0:42:170:42:23

that the only started the search of

the submarine 48 hours after it went

0:42:230:42:27

missing.

And I assume the mood is

darkening, Daniel, as the days pass,

0:42:270:42:33

because it seems now almost

impossible that these people can be

0:42:330:42:36

found alive?

Most people that I have

spoken with here in Argentina tend

0:42:360:42:41

to think that there is nothing to do

any more. They see it as a tragedy,

0:42:410:42:47

obviously, because it is a tragic

event that has moved most of the

0:42:470:42:51

country, but they turn to another

conversation, in the sense that

0:42:510:42:54

there is nothing we can do and we

have to get over it. But obviously

0:42:540:42:59

the political scene and most of the

opposition have been talking about

0:42:590:43:01

it, and they are trying to look for

who's to blame. The government

0:43:010:43:06

trying to move forward reform of the

military that was in the plans

0:43:060:43:15

before but now seems urgent because

the military in this country does

0:43:150:43:18

not have a huge budget. After the

military regime in the 70s and 80s,

0:43:180:43:22

so this is likely to trigger many

reforms for the Army forces in

0:43:220:43:26

Argentina.

We will go back to our

top story. This latest missile test

0:43:260:43:31

from North Korea. We have some more

news on this. This has come in from

0:43:310:43:35

Reuters. It is formatted a little

strangely but I will read it all the

0:43:350:43:39

same. The US in Japan have requested

that the UN Security Council meet on

0:43:390:43:44

Wednesday, tomorrow, to discuss

North Korea's latest missile launch.

0:43:440:43:48

Diplomats said on Tuesday. Remember,

Donald Trump has already said he

0:43:480:43:51

will handle this, although he has

not detail precisely how he will

0:43:510:43:55

handle it. We have heard from the US

Defence Secretary James Mattis who

0:43:550:44:04

has been talking in the last few

minutes...

Over two and a half hours

0:44:040:44:07

ago North Korea launched an

intercontinental ballistic missile.

0:44:070:44:08

It went higher, frankly, than any

previous shots they had taken. It is

0:44:080:44:14

a research and development effort on

their part. They are building

0:44:140:44:17

ballistic missiles that can threaten

everywhere in the world, basically.

0:44:170:44:22

And in response, the South Koreans

have fired pinpoint missiles out

0:44:220:44:27

into the water to make certain North

Korea understands that they could be

0:44:270:44:31

taken under fire by our ally, but

the bottom line is it is a continued

0:44:310:44:35

effort to build a ballistic missile

threat that endangers world peace,

0:44:350:44:42

regional peace and certainly the

United States.

Well, we will go back

0:44:420:44:46

to that story and I also want to go

back to the Pope's visit to Myanmar.

0:44:460:44:49

We were talking about this earlier

today. Today he delivered a very

0:44:490:44:54

carefully worded speech, asking for

all ethnic groups in Myanmar to be

0:44:540:44:59

respected, and as I already

mentioned he avoided any direct

0:44:590:45:01

mention of the plight of the

Rohingya Muslim population, and

0:45:010:45:05

remember over 600,000 Rohingya

Muslims have fled Myanmar into

0:45:050:45:12

Bangladesh because of military

operations against them and mass

0:45:120:45:14

killings. The BBC's Reeta

Chakrabarti has been at one of the

0:45:140:45:18

biggest refugee camps in Bangladesh,

where hundreds of thousands of

0:45:180:45:21

people are living, half of them

children. This is her latest report.

0:45:210:45:28

Waiting at the border in Bangladesh.

600 refugees who have crossed from

0:45:280:45:32

Myanmar. They are held here for two

days before being allowed in. They

0:45:320:45:39

are exhausted and anxious. Among

them, we found 18-year-olds Rabia

0:45:390:45:49

>> anchor-2-mac: Nieces. A

nine-year-old and a four-year-old.

0:45:490:45:55

-- and her two nieces. They said the

military attacked their village in

0:45:550:46:01

Myanmar. The little girl's mother

was killed and they don't know what

0:46:010:46:05

has happened to their father. They

have been walking for 25 days.

0:46:050:46:11

TRANSLATION:

People gave us food. I

just brought the two children. I

0:46:110:46:15

didn't bring anything to cook with.

She said she is determined to keep

0:46:150:46:19

the children with her, although it

may be difficult. A week later we

0:46:190:46:23

find them in the UN transit camp

were vulnerable people are looked

0:46:230:46:26

after. Umi has less to get their

food rations. How are they getting

0:46:260:46:32

on? This is where you live. Mm. You

don't have much, do you?

0:46:320:46:46

Psychologists see the little one is

severely traumatised by her

0:46:460:46:49

experiences. She never speaks to any

adult. -- say that the little one.

0:46:490:46:57

Almost everyone you meet in this

camp say they have seen some

0:46:570:47:00

terrible things. This group has been

setup to help people deal their

0:47:000:47:04

experiences.

It is run by a psychologist. All the

0:47:040:47:13

women here have lost their husbands

in the violence in Myanmar, and they

0:47:130:47:17

are grateful for are counselling.

This woman said she asked questions

0:47:170:47:24

about their lives, they really talk

to each other about all the good and

0:47:240:47:27

the bad -- all the bad, and the

good, that has happened to them. Her

0:47:270:47:31

friend echoes her, saying the

sessions make her feel happy, and

0:47:310:47:33

they are thankful. People come from

all over the camp for help. The

0:47:330:47:42

psychologist works with them to

rebuild their lives.

It really works

0:47:420:47:48

magic, because in my session

normally I say a few words, which is

0:47:480:47:55

like, now you're safe and secure,

and we will not tell on you. We are

0:47:550:47:59

with you, so I acknowledge your

life, because you have to go through

0:47:590:48:05

many stories and experiences, but

finally you are here and you're

0:48:050:48:09

safe.

We knew that the girls we met

earlier were safe, but it had been

0:48:090:48:14

four bays and they had moved on. --

four days. We found them with a

0:48:140:48:24

group of people from their village

waiting to be registered in a more

0:48:240:48:28

permanent camp. TRANSLATION:

I hope

for a good life. I will never let

0:48:280:48:31

the children go. I will never leave

their side.

Aid workers told us the

0:48:310:48:40

girls will get child protection

because they have no parents. And it

0:48:400:48:43

will be placed with the others from

their community. They are being

0:48:430:48:50

looked after, but they will take a

long time to recover from the trauma

they've experienced. Reeta

Let's turn to the situation in Bali

where tourists remain stranded and

0:49:140:49:19

airport remains shut for a second

days, all to do with Mount Agung,

0:49:190:49:25

the volcano in the East of the

island. This is Hywel Griffiths from

0:49:250:49:31

Bali with the latest.

0:49:310:49:33

With ash billowing

overhead and tremors

0:49:330:49:43

growing underground,

Mount Agung's eruption shows no

0:49:450:49:46

signs of slowing.

0:49:460:49:47

Thick muddy flows are already

flowing from the surface.

0:49:470:49:50

They're dangerous, but not

as devastating as the red-hot

0:49:500:49:52

lava which could follow.

0:49:520:49:53

In the mountain's shadow they've

been preparing for months.

0:49:530:49:55

Everyone knows the drill.

0:49:550:49:59

These children have been

reassured they will be safe,

0:49:590:50:01

as long as the evacuation

plan is followed.

0:50:010:50:06

For the thousands forced

from their homes two months ago

0:50:060:50:08

when the tremors started,

the wait has been unbearable,

0:50:080:50:12

and there's no way of

knowing when it will end.

It seems pretty close at the minute,

yeah, so not sure whether it is due

0:50:440:50:54

to erupt or in the

middle of erupting.

0:51:030:51:05

to stick to everyday life,

laughs. The blackout is adding to

0:51:110:51:14

the eruption will end. Hywel

Griffiths, Bali.

0:51:180:51:23

We end with a report on how Mexican

drug cartels are targeting avocado

0:51:230:51:27

producers. The reason they are doing

that is simple. It is boomtime for

0:51:270:51:32

avocado producers, with Europe and

the US consuming more and more,

0:51:320:51:36

pushing up prices. In April 20 16th

just under $1 for an avocado, April

0:51:360:51:43

20 $1 27. It is being driven by the

perception that avocados are good

0:51:430:51:48

for us and of course they are very

tasty, as well. Mexico is in a very

0:51:480:51:52

strong position. It supplies 45% of

the world's avocados and provides

0:51:520:52:01

82% that are exploded into the US

and the cartels want some of that

0:52:010:52:05

business. This is the so-called

avocado capital of Mexico

0:52:050:52:16

and our correspondent has been

there. Guns and avocados are strange

0:52:160:52:23

but necessary bedfellows here. At

its peak, people fell victim to

0:52:230:52:29

extortion, kidnappings and murders.

With no help, the people of the town

0:52:290:52:35

provided a police force. There are

70-80 people in this avocado police

0:52:350:52:44

and they are all part of the

community and in that sense they are

0:52:440:52:48

also all invested in the avocado

industry. She works Monday to Friday

0:52:480:52:54

as a police officer and the rest of

the time she is on her farm. She

0:52:540:52:58

said it is hard work with two jobs

but worth it and life here is much

0:52:580:53:04

safer now. People who fled the gangs

are now coming back. Life and

0:53:040:53:09

business has returned to normal.

TRANSLATION: It wasn't that

0:53:090:53:16

production was affected but more

that some fell into the hands of

0:53:160:53:22

criminals. There was a lot of fear.

There were not a lot of people who

0:53:220:53:27

stayed around. They were scared. But

people are cautious. No more than

0:53:270:53:36

this avocado farmer. The industry

has made him rich, and a target. He

0:53:360:53:41

knows that, which is why he carries

a gun. He tells me his son was

0:53:410:53:44

kidnapped. He had to pay a ransom of

$500,000. He also implies armed

0:53:440:53:53

bodyguards around the clock,

watching over him and his workers on

0:53:530:53:56

the form. This and paying for

avocado police enable him to sleep

0:53:560:54:01

well at night. TRANSLATION:

It's

much better now because we are left

0:54:010:54:07

alone, we don't have problems.

That's all we want. If it costs us,

0:54:070:54:16

so be it. All that happen before it

was hurting us. This is the

0:54:160:54:24

deadliest

for Mexico in two decades.

0:54:240:54:26

BBC News. Just before I say goodbye,

let's return to the missile test by

0:54:260:54:32

North Korea. I was reading you this

from Reuters a few minutes ago, that

0:54:320:54:37

Japan and the US have requested a UN

Security Council meeting on

0:54:370:54:39

Wednesday. I have more copy, also

from Reuters, quoting the Italian

0:54:390:54:44

mission to the UN, that this meeting

will now take place at TPM, that is

0:54:440:54:51

the time in New York, Eastern time,

and of course we will keep a very

0:54:510:54:55

close eye on that and bring details

of what is said on tomorrow's

0:54:550:55:00

edition of Outside Source. Goodbye.
