0:00:08 > 0:00:10Hello, I'm Ros Atkins, this is Outside Source.
0:00:10 > 0:00:17China, South Korea and the US are standing off over trade.
0:00:17 > 0:00:19President Trump's America First approach is kicking in -
0:00:19 > 0:00:20he's approved steep tariffs on washing machines
0:00:20 > 0:00:30and solar panels.
0:00:33 > 0:00:35US Attorney-General Jeff Sessions is questioned by the investigation
0:00:35 > 0:00:38into Russian interference in US election.
0:00:47 > 0:00:52Q mass appeal has died. He was a legend of South African music and a
0:00:52 > 0:00:59fighter in the struggle against apartheid.I stall so much from
0:00:59 > 0:01:06Africa and the need to pay back. The only way to pay back is to make the
0:01:06 > 0:01:12people see how wonderful they are. We will look at why men who were
0:01:12 > 0:01:19reporting on Vice President's Mike Pence replaced on the front row and
0:01:19 > 0:01:21women were asked to stand behind the barrier.
0:01:21 > 0:01:23women were asked to stand behind the barrier.
0:01:34 > 0:01:35Welcome to Outside Source.
0:01:35 > 0:01:38America is bringing in tariffs of up to 50% on imported washing
0:01:38 > 0:01:39machines and solar panels.
0:01:39 > 0:01:41It's part of President Trump's 'America First' trade policy.
0:01:41 > 0:01:48Here he is talking about it a little while ago.
0:01:49 > 0:01:52So we are bringing business back to the United States for the first time
0:01:52 > 0:01:57in many, many years. Many, many decades, really. We are very proud
0:01:57 > 0:02:01of it. That is why the stock market is reacting the way it is.
0:02:01 > 0:02:04That is why the stock market is reacting the way it is.
0:02:04 > 0:02:061.6 million washing machines were imported to the US in 2010.
0:02:06 > 0:02:08American company Whirlpool has been lobbying for protection
0:02:08 > 0:02:11against cheaper imports for years.
0:02:11 > 0:02:14Its shares went up 2.5% on the news and it immediately
0:02:14 > 0:02:18announced it'd be hiring 200 more people.
0:02:18 > 0:02:21So Whirlpool likes this - much less so Chinese
0:02:21 > 0:02:22or South Korean manufacturers.
0:02:22 > 0:02:27This is South Korea's trade minister.
0:02:31 > 0:02:34Our government is expressing regret for the latest US
0:02:34 > 0:02:37safeguard measures against our industry as they are excessive
0:02:37 > 0:02:39and would clearly violate the WTO rules.
0:02:39 > 0:02:41We will actively respond
0:02:41 > 0:02:43to protectionist measures to protect the national interest and resolve
0:02:43 > 0:02:51the industry's difficulties.
0:02:51 > 0:02:53We've got the upside for the US.
0:02:53 > 0:03:01Yogita Limaye, New York explains the downside.
0:03:01 > 0:03:05Whirlpool is among the companies that complained to the US
0:03:05 > 0:03:07International Trade Commission which find in their favour. Today,
0:03:07 > 0:03:13President Trump has approved these tariffs. What is the downside? Let's
0:03:13 > 0:03:17look at the solar panel industry. One survey last year said that
0:03:17 > 0:03:26installation of solar power panels, that is one of the fastest growing
0:03:26 > 0:03:31jobs in America. There are many companies that do solar panel
0:03:31 > 0:03:36installation tear. If you can no longer import the number of solar
0:03:36 > 0:03:40panels, and people are saying that American manufacturers will be able
0:03:40 > 0:03:43to meet that demand, a lot of people here could potentially lose their
0:03:43 > 0:03:50jobs. All of these electronic items, the end of the day it is an entire
0:03:50 > 0:03:54chain. There may be part in a washing machine for example or in a
0:03:54 > 0:03:58solar panel that are imported from the US and then manufactured,
0:03:58 > 0:04:05progestin career. Global trade is a chain and if you increase the price
0:04:05 > 0:04:10when it is coming back into America, at some level you will also harm
0:04:10 > 0:04:12businesses in your own country, as well.
0:04:12 > 0:04:13businesses in your own country, as well.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16Yogita was talking there about the tax on solar panels
0:04:16 > 0:04:18in terms of the broad issue of tariffs.
0:04:18 > 0:04:19Many are also pointing out the narrower issue
0:04:19 > 0:04:24of the development of renewables.
0:04:24 > 0:04:25Former NY Mayor Michael Bloomberg tweeted, "Taxing
0:04:25 > 0:04:28solar panels up to 30% will destroy US
0:04:28 > 0:04:30jobs, raise Americans' electric bills and hurt our environment.
0:04:30 > 0:04:33Congress should stand up for American workers
0:04:33 > 0:04:36and consumers and overturn the administration's
0:04:36 > 0:04:39harmful decision".
0:04:39 > 0:04:40But this is essentially President Trump doing
0:04:40 > 0:04:44what he said he'd do.
0:04:44 > 0:04:49Yogita Limaye.
0:04:49 > 0:04:53This isn't the first thing that we have heard from him as far as
0:04:53 > 0:04:57traders concerned. He pulled out of the transpacific partnership. He has
0:04:57 > 0:05:02been talking about the negotiating the North American Free Trade
0:05:02 > 0:05:06Agreement and with Canada. In Mexico, there were import tariffs
0:05:06 > 0:05:11put on things like lumber from Canada. In that sense, he seems to
0:05:11 > 0:05:16be picking a fight with everyone. Even today, that reaction, stronger
0:05:16 > 0:05:21from South Korea and China because they are the ones likely to be worst
0:05:21 > 0:05:26affected. They had European leaders saying they've regret this decision.
0:05:26 > 0:05:30The Indian Prime Minister said that protectionism is raising its head
0:05:30 > 0:05:31and he defended globalisation.
0:05:31 > 0:05:37and he defended globalisation.
0:05:37 > 0:05:41Here is a tweet from Paul Page from the Wall Street Journal. The first
0:05:41 > 0:05:46volley in the trade war might have been fired over washing machines and
0:05:46 > 0:05:47solar panels.
0:05:47 > 0:05:52Here's Yogita on how the Chinese and South Koreans might retaliate.
0:05:52 > 0:05:55It would involve them seeing if they want to raise tariffs on things that
0:05:55 > 0:06:02are imported from the US. Especially DGS trade equation with China is
0:06:02 > 0:06:12heavily tilted in favour of China, the trade with China is four times.
0:06:12 > 0:06:18In general, that is a trend that is set, other countries, India is a
0:06:18 > 0:06:25huge market for the US. If you have then other countries start raising
0:06:25 > 0:06:29tariffs on imports from the US, that will harm anyone he is making things
0:06:29 > 0:06:35here and wanting to sell them abroad.We can be sure that this
0:06:35 > 0:06:38news is being carefully noted by everyone attending the World
0:06:38 > 0:06:42Economic Forum in Davos.
0:06:42 > 0:06:44It's a gathering of the global elite
0:06:44 > 0:06:45and Donald Trump's going.
0:06:45 > 0:06:48The first sitting US President to do so in 20 years.
0:06:48 > 0:06:50And there's no shortage of people warning against protectionism.
0:06:50 > 0:06:59Justin Trudeau for one.
0:06:59 > 0:07:02We are working very hard to make sure that your neighbour to the
0:07:02 > 0:07:14South recognises how good Nafta is and how it has benefited his
0:07:14 > 0:07:18economy, the world economy. We are open to more trade deals involving
0:07:18 > 0:07:23more people as long as it is in the best benefit of all of our citizens.
0:07:23 > 0:07:25The US Attorney-General, Jeff Sessions, has been interviewed
0:07:25 > 0:07:26by the Mueller investigation.
0:07:26 > 0:07:28It's looking into alleged collusion between the Trump
0:07:28 > 0:07:31campaign and Russia - and this is the first member
0:07:31 > 0:07:32of President Trump's cabinet to be questioned.
0:07:32 > 0:07:34Here's Anthony Zurcher on what we can read
0:07:34 > 0:07:44into this development.
0:07:44 > 0:07:49Jeff Sessions sits in an interesting position, had a crossroad of
0:07:49 > 0:07:53different lines of the Robert Miller investigation. He served as a
0:07:53 > 0:07:57campaign adviser to Donald Trump. He had meetings with Russians
0:07:57 > 0:08:06ambassadors during the campaign that he was not forthcoming on when asked
0:08:06 > 0:08:11about during his confirmation as US Attorney General. As US Attorney
0:08:11 > 0:08:15General he was involved in a conversation possibly with Donald
0:08:15 > 0:08:21Trump about James Comey who was fired, the FBI director, fired by
0:08:21 > 0:08:25Donald Trump. Another part of Robert Miller's investigation is to look at
0:08:25 > 0:08:32any possible evidence of obstruction of justice on part of the president
0:08:32 > 0:08:35or his staff. Sessions may have information that could be valuable
0:08:35 > 0:08:39to that aspect of the investigation as well.
0:08:39 > 0:08:45In terms of the format, how does it work?This appears to be the same
0:08:45 > 0:08:50sort of setup that other members of Donald Trump's inner circle have had
0:08:50 > 0:08:55when they appeared before Robert Miller and his team. It is not a
0:08:55 > 0:08:59subpoena, not a grand jury questioning. It is a sit down with
0:08:59 > 0:09:02either Robert Muller himself or a member to visiting to talk about the
0:09:02 > 0:09:09issues. He can take breaks. It is different to the grand jury that it
0:09:09 > 0:09:16looked like Steve Bannon was going to be subjected to, until he made
0:09:16 > 0:09:19his own deal with the Mueller team.
0:09:19 > 0:09:21There's been a series of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions
0:09:21 > 0:09:22in the past 24 hours.
0:09:22 > 0:09:24Mount Kusatsu-Shirane has erupted in Japan.
0:09:24 > 0:09:26Mount Mayon in the Philippines began erupting a few days ago.
0:09:26 > 0:09:29And then there have been earthquakes off the coast
0:09:29 > 0:09:37of Java in Indonesia, and off the coast of Alaska.
0:09:37 > 0:09:40Let's look at images from these events.
0:09:40 > 0:09:451 These from Japan, where the eruption caused an avalanche.
0:09:45 > 0:09:47A soldier was killed.
0:09:47 > 0:09:5114 others were injured.
0:09:51 > 0:09:58These are timelapse images of Mount Mayon in the Philippines.
0:10:01 > 0:10:04These pictures are from Indonesia.
0:10:04 > 0:10:06These workers and residents in Jakarta fleeing from high rise
0:10:06 > 0:10:15buildings that swayed after a 5.3 earthquake.
0:10:15 > 0:10:18And this is a traffic jam in Alaska after people followed
0:10:18 > 0:10:21police orders to evacuate.
0:10:21 > 0:10:25That earthquake measured 7.9 and triggered a tsunami warning.
0:10:25 > 0:10:33That warning is no longer in place, by the way.
0:10:33 > 0:10:36The UN office for Disaster Risk Reduction sent out this tweet
0:10:36 > 0:10:39with details of those quakes and eruptions.
0:10:39 > 0:10:43But what's most interesting is it says the Ring of Fire is active
0:10:43 > 0:10:46today and included this map that shows the ring of fire -
0:10:46 > 0:10:50you can see it includes Indonesia, the Philippines, Japan and Alaska.
0:10:50 > 0:10:53That obviously begs the question, what exactly is the Ring of Fire
0:10:53 > 0:10:57and does it mean these events are connected?
0:10:57 > 0:11:03Jonathan Amos can help.
0:11:03 > 0:11:07The ring of Fire is just this great region of activity that extends all
0:11:07 > 0:11:10the way around the Pacific
0:11:12 > 0:11:22Basin. From Alaska, dined through Japan, the Philippines, down three
0:11:22 > 0:11:27New Zealand. Anywhere along the line then you will get activity of some
0:11:27 > 0:11:32sort. It is responsible for more than half of all the volcanoes above
0:11:32 > 0:11:38sea level. You find them on the Ring of fire. What is the cause? It is
0:11:38 > 0:11:43this idea of plate tectonics. We have these great slabs covering the
0:11:43 > 0:11:47surface of the Earth and as they move and jostle bigoted geological
0:11:47 > 0:11:51response. Today we saw in Alaska are big earthquake that was the result
0:11:51 > 0:11:56of the Pacific late, the Pacific ocean floor putting up against the
0:11:56 > 0:12:02North American plate and diving underneath the North American plate,
0:12:02 > 0:12:07they are colliding at about six centimetres a year. Where that
0:12:07 > 0:12:11happened you get earthquakes but also volcanoes because as the rock
0:12:11 > 0:12:19coastline, it melts and comes up as magma to islands. You see activity
0:12:19 > 0:12:26all around the basin. Are these events connected? No, they are not,
0:12:26 > 0:12:30other than that underlying driver of plate tectonics, there is no
0:12:30 > 0:12:35connection between a net quake in Tokyo or Chile or Alaska or have
0:12:35 > 0:12:38volcanoes may be in New Zealand. The only time that there is a connection
0:12:38 > 0:12:43is where you get events that are very close together. Today, for
0:12:43 > 0:12:47example, with a big earthquake in Alaska you got a number of
0:12:47 > 0:12:49after-shocks, so clearly they are related.
0:12:49 > 0:12:51related.
0:12:51 > 0:12:53So those events aren't connected, they just happen a lot
0:12:53 > 0:12:54on the Ring of Fire.
0:12:54 > 0:12:56The BBC's Rebecca Henschke is based in Jakarta -
0:12:56 > 0:13:01tremors are part of life there.
0:13:01 > 0:13:07The epicentre of the quake was a kilometres away from where I am in
0:13:07 > 0:13:12central Jakarta, but office building on the 15th floor of a high-rise
0:13:12 > 0:13:16building shook for about 15 seconds and we were forced to evacuate down
0:13:16 > 0:13:22the stairwell. All the buildings in this area were evacuated, workers
0:13:22 > 0:13:26told to get out from these buildings and onto the street for their own
0:13:26 > 0:13:30safety. This included a number of government buildings as well as
0:13:30 > 0:13:38schools. There is no immediate tsunami threat and no reports of
0:13:38 > 0:13:42injuries. We are hearing of minor damage done to hundreds of buildings
0:13:42 > 0:13:49in the town closest to the epicentre, but today's events very
0:13:49 > 0:13:54much a reminder that we live here in the ring of fire, an area where
0:13:54 > 0:13:58tectonic plates often collide making earthquakes and volcanic eruptions
0:13:58 > 0:14:09part of daily life here.
0:14:09 > 0:14:15In a few minutes to Jerusalem and bring you up-to-date on Mike Pence's
0:14:15 > 0:14:18visit. He has been to the Western Wall. Female reporters invited to
0:14:18 > 0:14:23cover this were asked to stand behind the men who were asked to
0:14:23 > 0:14:25come along.
0:14:41 > 0:14:43It's emerged that police are investigating a new allegation
0:14:43 > 0:14:44of sexual assault made against the convicted
0:14:44 > 0:14:45rapist John Worboys.
0:14:45 > 0:14:48Convicted in 2009, Worboys is due to be released
0:14:48 > 0:14:49by the end of the month.
0:14:49 > 0:14:51We learned today that Scotland Yard have received a fresh allegation of
0:14:51 > 0:14:56sexual assault dating back to 1997, so five years earlier than was
0:14:56 > 0:15:01thought his offending started. That allegation was made this month. It
0:15:01 > 0:15:06is being taken extremely seriously I understand by detectives from
0:15:06 > 0:15:09Scotland Yard, but the enquiry is in its early stages and they haven't as
0:15:09 > 0:15:15yet arrested Worboys or interviewed him, but potentially this is
0:15:15 > 0:15:19significant because there is growing unrest about his impending release.
0:15:19 > 0:15:24If that investigation moved swiftly and effectively, and potentially
0:15:24 > 0:15:28lead to a criminal charge, it is impossible to see really high
0:15:28 > 0:15:30Worboys could then be left out.
0:15:38 > 0:15:41Worboys could then be left out.
0:15:41 > 0:15:43This is Outside Source live from the BBC newsroom.
0:15:43 > 0:15:44Our lead story:
0:15:44 > 0:15:46President Trump's approved steep tariffs on washing machines
0:15:46 > 0:15:48and solar panels from Asia.
0:15:48 > 0:15:57China and South Korea have vowed to defend their interests.
0:15:57 > 0:15:59Pakistani authorities say they have arrested the main suspect

0:16:46 > 0:16:49US Vice-President Mike Pence visited the Western Wall in Jerusalem today.
0:16:49 > 0:16:53Reporters were allowed to cover the event.
0:16:53 > 0:17:01But male and female journalists were kept segregated.
0:17:01 > 0:17:03This is a rule enforced by Jewish ultra-Orthodox authorities
0:17:04 > 0:17:09at the site in Jerusalem.
0:17:09 > 0:17:16Men and women are not allowed to pray together at the wall.
0:17:16 > 0:17:19It's the holiest site where Jews are permitted to pray.
0:17:19 > 0:17:20And the third holiest site in Islam.
0:17:20 > 0:17:25To be clear, this is not new.
0:17:25 > 0:17:27There were complaints when women were segregated
0:17:27 > 0:17:33when Donald Trump came in May.
0:17:33 > 0:17:35But this time, journalists there say women were
0:17:35 > 0:17:38kept behind the men - not at an equal distance
0:17:38 > 0:17:46like on previous VIP visits.
0:17:46 > 0:17:47On Twitter, Washington Post Jenna Johnson said,
0:17:47 > 0:17:50"As Vice President Pence visits the Western Wall, male journalists
0:17:50 > 0:17:51are given the front-row spots.
0:17:51 > 0:17:54Female journalists are standing in the very back, standing on chairs
0:17:54 > 0:17:57to try to see over all of the guys."
0:17:57 > 0:18:00In fact, the hashtag #PenceFence quickly gained traction.
0:18:00 > 0:18:04Reporter Noga Tarnopolsky said male journalists were also allowed
0:18:04 > 0:18:06access to the Vice-President in a tent.
0:18:06 > 0:18:14She posted this video.
0:18:19 > 0:18:23Here you can see life as all of the men are given access to cover the
0:18:23 > 0:18:28vice President's visit directly and personally and we women are
0:18:28 > 0:18:33literally stuck in a pen behind them, just stuck in a pen. Here you
0:18:33 > 0:18:34can see our events.
0:18:34 > 0:18:36Here you can see our events.

0:18:53 > 0:18:59American Embassy in Israel to cover the vice President's visit to the
0:18:59 > 0:19:03wall. Obviously they say it is a private event for him, but they
0:19:03 > 0:19:12wanted coverage. As you know, the area is segregated between men and
0:19:12 > 0:19:19women in the last ten years, but it wasn't always like that. That is a
0:19:19 > 0:19:25new tradition. It was a common area in the past. Today, in order to
0:19:25 > 0:19:28accommodate the vice president they closed the entire place, so no
0:19:28 > 0:19:42people, ultra-docs -- orthodox or rather, were not allowed in. We
0:19:42 > 0:19:47protested. We said it is not a regular line of business to have

0:19:55 > 0:20:03photographers and reporters. That were male. Are you upset that
0:20:03 > 0:20:06segregation happens at all at the Western Wall or that the Americans
0:20:06 > 0:20:11allowed it to happen in this particular circumstance?
0:20:11 > 0:20:16I am upset about this segregation at all times. It shouldn't happen.
0:20:16 > 0:20:23There are associations in Israel, religious associations that protest
0:20:23 > 0:20:30this every month. I am a working reporter. I am a secular person. I
0:20:30 > 0:20:35am not normally going to pray at the Western Wall, I came over to work
0:20:35 > 0:20:39and be professional. It is another example of something that shouldn't
0:20:39 > 0:20:43happen here. Israel is a western democracy. We have equal rights laws
0:20:43 > 0:20:49and this is unacceptable to us. Obviously I am upset that the
0:20:49 > 0:20:56regular scene that goes on over there, but as a working professional
0:20:56 > 0:21:02today the fact that I was there to see it with my eyes, I will protest
0:21:02 > 0:21:13against it, that's for sure.
0:21:16 > 0:21:18Bill Cosby has returned to the stage.
0:21:18 > 0:21:21In a few months he has a retrial on charges of sexual assault.
0:21:21 > 0:21:23QUAD The performance was a Jazz club in Philadelphia.
0:21:23 > 0:21:25This is some of it.
0:21:25 > 0:21:28My wife, who loves me and does not want me to walk into anything
0:21:28 > 0:21:38said... Why is it these people can talk?
0:21:38 > 0:21:40Why is it these people can talk?
0:21:40 > 0:21:44Cosby's trial begins in March.
0:21:44 > 0:21:46It's happening because last year a jury was unable to reach
0:21:46 > 0:21:50a unanimous verdict.
0:21:50 > 0:21:52Mr Cosby is accused of drugging and molesting university
0:21:52 > 0:21:57basketball coach Andrea Constand at his home in 2004.
0:21:57 > 0:22:00She is one of around 60 women to have accused Mr Cosby
0:22:00 > 0:22:03of being a sexual predator.
0:22:03 > 0:22:05You may remember this powerful front cover
0:22:05 > 0:22:10of the New Yorker in 2015, when 35 of his accusers spoke out.
0:22:10 > 0:22:14Now, despite a fairly appreciative audience,
0:22:14 > 0:22:16he didn't have things all his own way at last
0:22:16 > 0:22:17night's performance.
0:22:17 > 0:22:25He was asked about his retrial.
0:22:25 > 0:22:32NPR radio journalist Billy Allyn was also there.
0:22:32 > 0:22:34He tweeted this picture, saying: "Here is the unforgettable
0:22:34 > 0:22:38face Cosby made when I asked him how he thinks jurors will see his case
0:22:38 > 0:22:42differently in the #MeToo era."
0:22:42 > 0:22:50Mr Allyn joins me now.
0:22:50 > 0:22:57Hi, Bobby. Thank you for your time. Can you tell us more about what
0:22:57 > 0:23:02exchange you had with Bill Cosby. Was he willing to talk? Yes, his
0:23:02 > 0:23:06handlers were keeping him away from the press during his whole
0:23:06 > 0:23:12performance, which was quite bizarre and freewheeling. Even after the
0:23:12 > 0:23:15performance a bunch of camera people and other journalists tried to
0:23:15 > 0:23:20huddle around him and his publicist just said that asking questions
0:23:20 > 0:23:24about the trial, he will not and to any questions about his accusers. He
0:23:24 > 0:23:29didn't come here to talk about that. I thought, look, Bill Cosby is going
0:23:29 > 0:23:33to make this big public performance in Philadelphia, invited the press
0:23:33 > 0:23:39and then not talk about the elephant in the room? I said to him, Mr
0:23:39 > 0:23:45Cosby, are you prepared to defend yourself in your second criminal
0:23:45 > 0:23:51trial? You didn't say a word. I said, in this neat, too, era, the
0:23:51 > 0:23:56jurors might view your case eventually this time? He made this
0:23:56 > 0:24:00very animated kind of frown that said, I don't know, then he walked
0:24:00 > 0:24:06away.Did anyone in the crowd want to talk about it? It sounded like
0:24:06 > 0:24:13they were having a good time.It is a small little jazz club in
0:24:13 > 0:24:17Germantown neighbourhood, a section of Philadelphia that is
0:24:17 > 0:24:21predominantly African-American. The drive there was mostly older,
0:24:21 > 0:24:27probably grew up watching his television shows. He is very beloved
0:24:27 > 0:24:31in this community in Philadelphia. Long before the accusations of
0:24:31 > 0:24:34sexual assault really melted against him he would come to this jazz club
0:24:34 > 0:24:43and do his kind of impromptu drum playing and do storytelling. He does
0:24:43 > 0:24:48this bit at this small little club for a while, so he walked into it in
0:24:48 > 0:24:52front of a very favourable audience who warmly received him. When I talk
0:24:52 > 0:24:56to some of the attendees afterwards, most of them are Bill Cosby
0:24:56 > 0:25:01supporters. Most of them have a real emotional connection to their
0:25:01 > 0:25:05hometown comedic legend. A few others said it was kind of
0:25:05 > 0:25:10offensive. It looks like a charm campaign, I way of trying to change
0:25:10 > 0:25:15public opinion ahead of his trial and it is maybe a little
0:25:15 > 0:25:17manipulative and the little mean-spirited. You should be keeping
0:25:17 > 0:25:23his head down and focusing on being a criminal defendant in a serious
0:25:23 > 0:25:26criminal trial this spring. That was the view of some of the people who
0:25:26 > 0:25:30were there watching his performance last night.I only have 30 seconds,
0:25:30 > 0:25:37but this isn't part of an temp two get back to the heights of fame
0:25:37 > 0:25:42before all this question might know, I don't think so.His career
0:25:42 > 0:25:45imploded two years ago when the accusations started. This is to try
0:25:45 > 0:25:50to remind the public ahead of jury selection, hey, don't you remember
0:25:50 > 0:25:56Bill Cosby, this American legend, this practised funnyman? Trying to
0:25:56 > 0:26:01instil those images into the public consciousness before his trial
0:26:01 > 0:26:06starts.Great to chat with you. I will be back in a couple of minutes.
0:26:16 > 0:26:21Let's take a quick tour of the world's weather and have a look at
0:26:21 > 0:26:26the weather events happening around the world. In Japan, heavy snowfall
0:26:26 > 0:26:30here, 23 centimetres in Tokyo. Cold north-westerly wind and a cold
0:26:30 > 0:26:37plunge of their into eastern China. It could be heavy snow in the
0:26:37 > 0:26:39Yangtze Valley region and into Shanghai. Further south, heavy
0:26:39 > 0:26:45rainfall in the southern Philippines. Here is a satellite
0:26:45 > 0:26:50image across northern parts of Australia showing all this cloud to
0:26:50 > 0:26:55stop the Australian monsoon is getting going. Heavy rainfall in the
0:26:55 > 0:26:58forecast on Wednesday across the Northern Territory, particularly
0:26:58 > 0:27:01hammering the Gulf of Carpentaria that could be an metre of rain in
0:27:01 > 0:27:07the next five or six days. In North America low-pressure both to the
0:27:07 > 0:27:13east and to the west. This system will bring heavy snowfall across the
0:27:13 > 0:27:17Rockies and brisk winds. That heavy rain also will still be cleared away
0:27:17 > 0:27:21from the north-east states with further snowfall to come towards the
0:27:21 > 0:27:26eastern Canada. Looking ahead, things will stay cold in New York
0:27:26 > 0:27:30and Montreal with further heavy spells of room for Vancouver and San
0:27:30 > 0:27:35Francisco, with some hail showers mixed in, too. In South America,
0:27:35 > 0:27:42particularly heavy rain in Paraguay. It is because of this central belt
0:27:42 > 0:27:47in South America, we could see flooding problems with
0:27:47 > 0:27:51thunderstorms, also the risk of tornadoes in northern Argentina,
0:27:51 > 0:27:56Paraguay and southern Brazil in particular. Let's head towards
0:27:56 > 0:28:00Europe. It is a mix in weather types. Unsettled in the north-west
0:28:00 > 0:28:04with the pressure moving in. Higher pressure holding on the southern and
0:28:04 > 0:28:09eastern parts of Europe. Heading to the Alps skiing, have window of
0:28:09 > 0:28:14decent weather after all of that snow, but milder air moving in. Some
0:28:14 > 0:28:19of the School on the Alps could floor for a while. Cold conditions
0:28:19 > 0:28:23across eastern parts of Europe with the wind is coming in from a
0:28:23 > 0:28:27northerly direction. Things will turn more stormy in northern parts
0:28:27 > 0:28:31of France, Scandinavia and across the UK with low-pressure sweeping in
0:28:31 > 0:28:36here. If we have a quick look at the forecast closer to home, the outlook
0:28:36 > 0:28:40you in the UK, things are staying pretty mild but windy over the next
0:28:40 > 0:28:44few days. We have the low-pressure moving into the cause of Tuesday
0:28:44 > 0:28:48night and on through weapons they bringing severe gales at times
0:28:48 > 0:28:56towards the north-west, and also a quick look at the forecast closer to
0:28:56 > 0:28:59home, the Outlook year in the UK, things are staying pretty mild but
0:28:59 > 0:29:01windy over the next few days. We have the low-pressure moving into
0:29:01 > 0:29:03the cause of Tuesday night and on through weapons they bringing severe
0:29:03 > 0:29:05gales at times towards the north-west, and also abandoned heavy
0:29:05 > 0:29:08rain. It is moving fairly quickly as it pushes towards the south and
0:29:08 > 0:29:11east. By Thursday it should be less windy and it should be drier. More
0:29:11 > 0:29:15on the weather for the week ahead in half an hour.
0:30:14 > 0:30:19This is Outside Source, some of the main stories. China, South Korea and
0:30:19 > 0:30:23the US are standing off over trade. President from's America first
0:30:23 > 0:30:27approach is starting to kick in as he approves steep tariffs on washing
0:30:27 > 0:30:31machines and solar panels.You're going to have people getting jobs
0:30:31 > 0:30:35again and we're going to make our own product again.US Attorney

0:30:51 > 0:30:56unique ecosystems that they want protected.No one can deny this
0:30:56 > 0:31:00region needs protecting but what is the best way to do it? If a line on
0:31:00 > 0:31:03a map going to make much difference and who is going to police anything
0:31:03 > 0:31:06here?
0:31:21 > 0:31:25Staying with the story which we have covered every day for the last week,
0:31:25 > 0:31:31the fight for a place called Afrin in Syria which is controlled by
0:31:31 > 0:31:34Kurdish militia and Kurdish leaders are asking civilians to join the
0:31:34 > 0:31:40fight against the Turkish offences. You can see it here in the
0:31:40 > 0:31:44north-west of Syria close to the Turkish border. Turkey says the
0:31:44 > 0:31:47Kurdish militia based there are terrorists. These are new pictures
0:31:47 > 0:31:54we have had from the Turkish side of the border, artillery fire coming
0:31:54 > 0:31:57out of Turkish territory and targeting Kurds who are in Syria.
0:31:57 > 0:32:01This is the fourth day of the offensive and already the UN is
0:32:01 > 0:32:08saying 5000 people have been forced from their homes. Our colleague from
0:32:08 > 0:32:15BBC Arabic is an expert on curbs whether in Iraq or Turkey or Syria
0:32:15 > 0:32:25-- on Kurds.The Turkey say that our branch of the PKK party in Syria but
0:32:25 > 0:32:35the reality is, they have a picture of the imprisoned leader of the PKK
0:32:35 > 0:32:37leader, they follow the same ideology but they have said
0:32:37 > 0:32:43repeatedly that they don't have any organisational link but they have
0:32:43 > 0:32:48some ideological link. But the Kurdish people inside Syria and in
0:32:48 > 0:32:58Turkey, which is a large number, are from the same I could even say tribe
0:32:58 > 0:33:03because the border was drawn at the fall of the Ottoman Empire. The
0:33:03 > 0:33:06Kurds in Iraq and Syria and Iran are different from each other but these
0:33:06 > 0:33:11are completely similar and the Turkish authorities say that not a
0:33:11 > 0:33:15single bullet in the past seven years after the Arab uprising in
0:33:15 > 0:33:22Syria, they have been controlling the city, had been shot from Afrin
0:33:22 > 0:33:28towards Turkey. Turkey say it is for their security but again, none of
0:33:28 > 0:33:33those terrorist attacks against Turkey have been carried out by
0:33:33 > 0:33:37Kurdish, it has been Isis militants which the Kurds have been fighting
0:33:37 > 0:33:41in Syria.We mentioned Islamic State, I wanted to clear up one
0:33:41 > 0:33:50thing, how involved have the militia in Afrin been in the fight against
0:33:50 > 0:33:56IS in that part of Syria?That place has been surrounded, one part was
0:33:56 > 0:34:00IS, another was another Islamic group and the FSA and the Syrian
0:34:00 > 0:34:05government so there has been fighting in that region but not
0:34:05 > 0:34:12Kurdish YPG in other places like Kobani. But in that place it was
0:34:12 > 0:34:16pretty much defending themselves and even sometimes pushing back from
0:34:16 > 0:34:21surrounding villages.If you want background information on Syria you
0:34:21 > 0:34:28can get it online from BBC News. Turning to a UN report that says
0:34:28 > 0:34:31that UN peacekeepers should be prepared to use force when
0:34:31 > 0:34:35necessary. This is a direct response to the fact that almost 200
0:34:35 > 0:34:41peacekeepers have died in the past five years. This was footage from
0:34:41 > 0:34:44Mali recently and you can see them wearing those distinctive blue
0:34:44 > 0:34:50helmets but the UN says that no longer offers what it calls natural
0:34:50 > 0:34:56protection. They have given us this map which marks the countries where
0:34:56 > 0:35:00its 15 peacekeeping missions operate. Eight of them are in Africa
0:35:00 > 0:35:04and those missions have been the most vulnerable. This is an image
0:35:04 > 0:35:10from a funeral last month in Tanzania 14 Tanzania and soldiers
0:35:10 > 0:35:14died in the Democratic Republic of Congo which was the worst attack on
0:35:14 > 0:35:20UN peacekeepers in over 20 years. More broadly around Africa, Mali has
0:35:20 > 0:35:24the highest number of fatalities of any mission, the next on the list is
0:35:24 > 0:35:30the Central African Republic and Sudan more specifically in Darfur.
0:35:30 > 0:35:38We can hear more from the UN.The context in which we have deployed
0:35:38 > 0:35:41forces has fundamentally changed, we are being directly attacked and
0:35:41 > 0:35:45targeted. We have taken more casualties in the last year than in
0:35:45 > 0:35:48the previous two combined and the old ways of doing business are not
0:35:48 > 0:35:53sufficient to deal with the changed environments. There are a couple of
0:35:53 > 0:35:58issues, one is to do with the equipment and technology and there
0:35:58 > 0:36:01is also mindset, having clear instructions, being trained to use
0:36:01 > 0:36:06the equipment you have but also willing to take action. Defending
0:36:06 > 0:36:09yourself is one thing but sometimes projecting strength is necessary
0:36:09 > 0:36:15because that deters against attacks. In these particular contexts, when
0:36:15 > 0:36:19we are being directly targeted, we have to be more robust and sometimes
0:36:19 > 0:36:23that might mean going on the offensive and having different
0:36:23 > 0:36:26technologies and equipment than before and the troops that have been
0:36:26 > 0:36:31trained to handle these types of environments.A new BBC News report
0:36:31 > 0:36:36on new research on Antarctica's underwater ecosystems. Scientists
0:36:36 > 0:36:39are saying they are so rare they need special protection and there is
0:36:39 > 0:36:45now a campaign to make the entire region in the world's largest
0:36:45 > 0:36:48wildlife sanctuary. If that happened, that would mean banning
0:36:48 > 0:36:53all fishing in a large part of the seas around the Antarctic Peninsula
0:36:53 > 0:36:58and that is not without its dispute about whether it should happen.
0:36:58 > 0:37:05Claire Marshall has been a long way south to cover this. Antarctica, the
0:37:05 > 0:37:15most remote continent in the world. It is still largely unexplored and
0:37:15 > 0:37:23we know even less about the icy seas ring it. Now machines are making it
0:37:23 > 0:37:33possible for us to catch a glimpse. A mini submarine is taking marine
0:37:33 > 0:37:39biologist Doctor Susan Lock down into Antarctic deep. -- Susan
0:37:39 > 0:37:45Lockhart. Above is a land of frigid ice, below a thriving mass of life.
0:37:45 > 0:37:50That is really pretty.No light penetrates this deep, plants cannot
0:37:50 > 0:37:59grow, these are all animals. Then it was my turn to go down with pilot
0:37:59 > 0:38:04John. We dropped much deeper, or more than 1000 feet down we fight a
0:38:04 > 0:38:12wall of life. Sponges and corals. See stars are stars, all thriving
0:38:12 > 0:38:21complete darkness. A robot arm captures samples. Some of the
0:38:21 > 0:38:24species and never been filmed before. They are threatened by an
0:38:24 > 0:38:31increase in fishing in the region. Too sooner we have to leave. There
0:38:31 > 0:38:36is apparently a storm brewing on the surface so the ship have asked us to
0:38:36 > 0:38:52come up. We surfaced close to some icebergs. That will be a massive
0:38:52 > 0:39:03chunk of ice. At last the diver gets a hawk on the sub. -- hook. But then
0:39:03 > 0:39:11the crane breaks and we are stranded for an hour. It feels good to
0:39:11 > 0:39:18finally be down. That is nice!
0:39:21 > 0:39:25We gathered evidence of a unique ecosystem that deserves protection.
0:39:25 > 0:39:30It is really exciting, really dense sea bed full of life, huge
0:39:30 > 0:39:37diversity. And also organisms living together and creating a 3-D
0:39:37 > 0:39:43structure so that more organisms can live and these can be very
0:39:43 > 0:39:48vulnerable to disturbance and they need special protection.No one can
0:39:48 > 0:39:50deny that this region needs protecting but what is the best way
0:39:50 > 0:39:56to do it? Is a line on a map going to make much difference? And who is
0:39:56 > 0:40:00going to police anything out here? The proposal to protect all of these
0:40:00 > 0:40:03creatures and their world will be held by the Antarctic nations in

0:40:34 > 0:40:39Let's talk about tennis, this was not something we saw coming, Kyle
0:40:39 > 0:40:44Edmund it into the semifinals of the Australian Open. Here is the moment
0:40:44 > 0:40:49when he did it. Bear in mind he went into this tournament unseeded and is
0:40:49 > 0:40:52ranked 49th in the world but he beat the world number three Grigor
0:40:52 > 0:40:55Dimitrov.
0:41:20 > 0:41:27With that ball going long, it was over in four sets. It was the first
0:41:27 > 0:41:32time Kyle Edmund had beaten a player ranked the top five and he is now
0:41:32 > 0:41:37the sixth British man ever to get to the semifinals of a grand slam and
0:41:37 > 0:41:43understandably it is big moment.I am loving it right now! The way I am
0:41:43 > 0:41:48playing, I'm 23 and in my first grand slam semifinal, the first am I
0:41:48 > 0:41:56played on one of in the world and to beat a quality player like Grigor
0:41:56 > 0:41:57played on one of in the world and to beat a quality player like Grigor,
0:41:57 > 0:42:00these things aren't aware of and their great feelings, you don't play
0:42:00 > 0:42:04in a grand slam semifinal every day, or the quarter is. I tried to enjoy
0:42:04 > 0:42:10it as much as possible and I knew I was in a good place and there was no
0:42:10 > 0:42:13reason why my tennis was not good enough to win pulls up it is
0:42:13 > 0:42:18obviously about going out there and doing it.And he did just that. He

0:42:23 > 0:42:26mother but his family moved to Yorkshire when he was three years
0:42:26 > 0:42:32old. Jo Wilson picks up the story. Kyle Edmund may have peaked on the
0:42:32 > 0:42:36other side of the world but he was made right here in Yorkshire. As an
0:42:36 > 0:42:42eight-year-old you might have spotted him on one of these courts.
0:42:42 > 0:42:46And it is here in Beverley where you will find a man who was hitting
0:42:46 > 0:42:52against Kyle Edmund as a boy.He always had the ability. He seemed to
0:42:52 > 0:42:56come off second best in tight match, may be down to the mental side of
0:42:56 > 0:43:00the biggest thing I have been impressed with his mental side and
0:43:00 > 0:43:05how he has applied himself on court. Will this change in?Absolutely not
0:43:05 > 0:43:11come he is very grounded and level have that -- level headed.A
0:43:11 > 0:43:15talented junior, he has worked hard on his physique and he was brought
0:43:15 > 0:43:19through the LTA National training programme. It was in the winning
0:43:19 > 0:43:24Davis Cup team of Britain in 2015 although the Murray Brothers won the
0:43:24 > 0:43:28match is in the final. While Andy Murray moved to Spain as a junior,
0:43:28 > 0:43:32Kyle Edmund it's at least in part the LTA's man.He has come through
0:43:32 > 0:43:37the system and also had tremendous support from family and friends with
0:43:37 > 0:43:40a big supporting and has found a way to get himself to the top of the
0:43:40 > 0:43:44game.He will play Marin Cilic in the semifinal, certainly beatable,
0:43:44 > 0:43:50and the man from Beverley's Hills may soon be a softly spoken
0:43:50 > 0:43:53superstar everywhere.
0:43:55 > 0:43:59And you can follow the tennis through the BBC sport app on your
0:43:59 > 0:44:02smartphone. If you have been watching regularly for the last week
0:44:02 > 0:44:06or so you will know we have covered the extra Merhi scenes in the
0:44:06 > 0:44:14sentencing hearing of this, Doctor who once worked with the US National
0:44:14 > 0:44:19gymnastics team. One development is today with this statement in which
0:44:19 > 0:44:22three members of the governing body of the sport resigned and the
0:44:22 > 0:44:25testimonies of the victims we have heard at make that all but
0:44:25 > 0:44:31inevitable and they have continued today. While these people have
0:44:31 > 0:44:37spoken, Larry Nassar has had to sit there and listen to more than 150
0:44:37 > 0:44:41women taking the stand to talk about the consequences of his sexual abuse
0:44:41 > 0:44:45and the sentencing has been delayed as more and more athletes have asked
0:44:45 > 0:44:50to speak. Yet already pleaded guilty to ten counts of molesting female
0:44:50 > 0:44:55gymnasts and among those speaking works one victim who is just 16
0:44:55 > 0:45:02years old and another who is the mother of an underaged victim.Not
0:45:02 > 0:45:07only me as a little girl but my parents and friends and many others
0:45:07 > 0:45:10just like me. I trusted him to take care of me, my parents trusted him
0:45:10 > 0:45:16and he used me as a toy for his own leisure. Larry Nassar destroyed my
0:45:16 > 0:45:19childhood innocence and shattered any positive experience that I had
0:45:19 > 0:45:24in gymnastics.I willingly took the most precious gift in this world to
0:45:24 > 0:45:31you and you hurt her. Physically, mentally and emotionally. And she
0:45:31 > 0:45:42was only eight. I will never get rid of the Guild that I have about this
0:45:42 > 0:45:56experience -- with the guilt.The judge in the case is this woman.
0:46:08 > 0:46:12The judge has been widely praised for allowing all of these
0:46:12 > 0:46:16testimonies to be heard and because Larry Nassar has already pleaded
0:46:16 > 0:46:19guilty, she has no need to be neutral and she has not been, she
0:46:19 > 0:46:22had been praising each of the victims and their families for
0:46:22 > 0:46:25speaking out and this was a response to the mother we heard just a moment
0:46:25 > 0:46:36ago.Red flags may have been there but they were designed to be hidden.
0:46:36 > 0:46:43You are not alone in this and I have heard it in your voice at how you
0:46:43 > 0:46:47love your daughter, and the only way to do that is to forgive yourself
0:46:47 > 0:46:53and leave the blame here with him. We have been following proceedings
0:46:53 > 0:47:01in the court in Michigan. Thank you for being with us. The cumulative
0:47:01 > 0:47:06effect of these astonishing testimonies must effect not just the
0:47:06 > 0:47:12victims and their families but everybody present?Yes, it really
0:47:12 > 0:47:18does. What started out last Tuesday when I first got here is something
0:47:18 > 0:47:21around 98 women who were signed up to testify and share their stories
0:47:21 > 0:47:28has ended at 158. There are three more testimonies expected tomorrow
0:47:28 > 0:47:33and then the sentencing will begin. Reflecting on the time I have been
0:47:33 > 0:47:40here, there has been a real sense of collective empowerment as more women
0:47:40 > 0:47:43share their stories and more have come forward and in the corridors
0:47:43 > 0:47:46during the breaks women have been going up to each other and
0:47:46 > 0:47:51encouraging each other. There has been a real sense that it is very
0:47:51 > 0:47:56difficult, if you are a survivor of sexual abuse, to be able to share
0:47:56 > 0:47:59your story but there is a sense that there is safety in numbers in this
0:47:59 > 0:48:03case and many feel that the judge has been incredibly encouraging and
0:48:03 > 0:48:07supportive. One thing that has struck me sitting in the courtroom
0:48:07 > 0:48:13and watching testimony is that it takes a lot for anyone to relive the
0:48:13 > 0:48:19ordeal of sexual abuse but to relive it when your attacker is only a few
0:48:19 > 0:48:23metres away, that takes some real determination and courage.And
0:48:23 > 0:48:28following this from afar, the more I listen to these women, the more it
0:48:28 > 0:48:32seems astonishing that this man was able to do this on this scale
0:48:32 > 0:48:39without anyone knowing.Absolutely. One of the things that the women who
0:48:39 > 0:48:43have been speaking to want to make sure is that Larry Nassar is served
0:48:43 > 0:48:48justice and he spent the rest of his life behind bars but they are also
0:48:48 > 0:48:51looking for accountability from the organisations that they say enabled
0:48:51 > 0:48:57him to carry on his behaviour unchecked. He was for two Michael
0:48:57 > 0:49:05Beckett a team doctor for USA Gymnastics -- two decades. We have
0:49:05 > 0:49:08heard many testimonies from women who have condemned the organisation
0:49:08 > 0:49:12for not believing them, not listening to them when women came
0:49:12 > 0:49:15forward over the years and raised concerns about his behaviour. They
0:49:15 > 0:49:20have also been complaining about Michigan State University from where
0:49:20 > 0:49:26he worked in this state as well. The head of USA Gymnastics was at the
0:49:26 > 0:49:29court the first two days last Tuesday and Wednesday but she has
0:49:29 > 0:49:35been seen here since an overnight we heard that members of the executive
0:49:35 > 0:49:41board of the organisation had resigned as well. USA Gymnastics say
0:49:41 > 0:49:43that athlete safety is their biggest concern but that does not wash with
0:49:43 > 0:49:48a lot of the women here who believe there is a wider culture here in
0:49:48 > 0:49:52gymnastics where women are often physically abused and in this case
0:49:52 > 0:49:56of course Larry Nassar was the culprit, but also emotionally
0:49:56 > 0:49:59abused. They believe the whole of the sport needs to take a good hard
0:49:59 > 0:50:06look at itself in the wake of this case.Thank you very much. Next we
0:50:06 > 0:50:14will talk about tea growers and elephants in India. This is because
0:50:14 > 0:50:17tea plantations are expanding which means they are encroaching into
0:50:17 > 0:50:20forests and people believe that is making elephants more aggressive. It
0:50:20 > 0:50:25is particularly pronounced in the north-eastern Indian state of Assam
0:50:25 > 0:50:28which is one of the biggest tea producing areas in the world but we
0:50:28 > 0:50:34know that around 800 people in that region were killed by wild elephants
0:50:34 > 0:50:38between two dozen six and 2016. Hundreds of elephants have also been
0:50:38 > 0:50:46killed -- 2006. This shows a section of forest which has been cleared for
0:50:46 > 0:50:50a tea garden and that will shrink the natural habitat of the elephant.
0:50:50 > 0:50:54This war has been built to enclose a tea garden but it has been damaged
0:50:54 > 0:51:00by the elephants because it blocked one of their favourite routes. This
0:51:00 > 0:51:06was a video we have been given, if you look at this man over here and
0:51:06 > 0:51:10this very agitated elephant, you can see the man throwing something
0:51:10 > 0:51:14towards the elephant trying to scare it away. All of these images have
0:51:14 > 0:51:20been supplied by the BBC's Koss pondered who travelled to Assam to
0:51:20 > 0:51:27cover the story.The government has brought out a report which said that
0:51:27 > 0:51:34tea plantations have contributed to the loss of forest covered in Assam
0:51:34 > 0:51:41but when you talk to people who are running the business, for instance
0:51:41 > 0:51:47the major Association of tea companies, they say that this is
0:51:47 > 0:51:54baseless because they also need forests for the tea plants. And then
0:51:54 > 0:51:59they say that this is baseless and they also say say this allegation
0:51:59 > 0:52:05that their land has never been surveyed. That is not for us to do,
0:52:05 > 0:52:09that is for the government to do, the government Kalex the revenue and
0:52:09 > 0:52:15they have no influence in that, that is their position -- the government
0:52:15 > 0:52:21Kalex 's revenue. Somerby small growers accept it is a problem. They
0:52:21 > 0:52:25don't want to use the word encroach but they say they have moved in
0:52:25 > 0:52:30because that is what the government promised, they promised them land
0:52:30 > 0:52:34and the government is not living up to its words. Therefore people had
0:52:34 > 0:52:40to take the land themselves and as a result you see this.And all of the
0:52:40 > 0:52:43people who would like fewer elephants to be dying, fewer people
0:52:43 > 0:52:48to be killed by them, is that a solution, simply that these tea
0:52:48 > 0:52:54Gardens should not expand in this way?The thing is, what officials
0:52:54 > 0:53:01say is that these forests actually acted as a buffer between the real
0:53:01 > 0:53:09reserved forests of the wildlife Sanctuary 's and national parks, and
0:53:09 > 0:53:13the villages. But what has happened now, the villages have moved into
0:53:13 > 0:53:19the buffer area and that has been the problem and it is just not the
0:53:19 > 0:53:23habitats. These places are also natural corridors which elephants
0:53:23 > 0:53:31have been using for ages. I showed Bojan, and the elephants come from
0:53:31 > 0:53:42there into Assam -- Bhutan. There are 56,000 the moment registered
0:53:42 > 0:53:51small growers and unofficially there are an equal number not registered,
0:53:51 > 0:53:59over 100,000 small growers and that is mushrooming. Hence the question,
0:53:59 > 0:54:04can tea gardens and elephants survive side by side?We finish the
0:54:04 > 0:54:14programme in South Africa because it is morning Hugh Masekela, the father
0:54:14 > 0:54:20of South African jazz and the huge figure in the struggle against
0:54:20 > 0:54:27apartheid. President Zuma has said that he kept the torch of freedom
0:54:27 > 0:54:31alive, fighting apartheid through his music. This is what the Kenyan
0:54:31 > 0:54:38president said. Tributes have been pouring in from all over the world.
0:54:38 > 0:54:45Hugh Masekela actually had a number one hit in 1968 with Grazing In The
0:54:45 > 0:54:49Grass and we will finish the show by watching him perform it a few years
0:54:49 > 0:54:51ago.
