0:00:07 > 0:00:10Hello, I'm Ros Atkins, this is Outside Source.

0:00:10 > 0:00:14Donald Trump has arrived at the World Economic Forum in Davos,

0:00:14 > 0:00:21where he'll be pushing his America First message.

0:00:21 > 0:00:24The US said they'd keep their troops in Syria to make sure the so-called

0:00:24 > 0:00:25Islamic State don't come back.

0:00:25 > 0:00:30The Syrian Foreign Minister tells us they're not happy with the idea.

0:00:30 > 0:00:32Long-term presence of the American troops on Syrian soil will be

0:00:32 > 0:00:37considered as an aggression against the sovereignty of Syria.

0:00:37 > 0:00:39"Lacking moral leadership": harsh words to describe Myanmar's

0:00:39 > 0:00:40leader Aung San Suu Kyi.

0:00:40 > 0:00:43But that's what one US diplomat did.

0:00:43 > 0:00:46We find out why.

0:00:46 > 0:00:48And is there a better way to warn against tsunamis?

0:00:48 > 0:00:58A group of Welsh scientists say yes.

0:01:04 > 0:01:10Let's start at the World Economic Forum in Davos.

0:01:10 > 0:01:20No doubting the most high profile guest.

0:01:20 > 0:01:22There would appear to be a tension between Mr Trump's

0:01:22 > 0:01:24"America First" message and the globalisation

0:01:24 > 0:01:30favoured by the rich and powerful who come to Davos.

0:01:30 > 0:01:40None of that was putting the President off his stride.

0:01:40 > 0:01:42What's your message to Davos, Mr President?

0:01:42 > 0:01:45Peace, and prosperity.

0:01:45 > 0:01:46He also talked about the Middle East.

0:01:46 > 0:01:48During a meeting with Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu,

0:01:48 > 0:01:52Mr Trump was asked if talks can resume with the Palestinians.

0:01:52 > 0:01:55This was his answer.

0:01:55 > 0:02:01When they disrespected us a week ago by not allowing our great vice

0:02:01 > 0:02:04president to see them, when we give them hundreds

0:02:04 > 0:02:09of millions of dollars in aid and support, tremendous numbers,

0:02:09 > 0:02:14numbers that nobody understands, that money is on the table.

0:02:14 > 0:02:18That money is not going to them unless they sit down

0:02:18 > 0:02:20and negotiate peace, because I can tell you that Israel

0:02:20 > 0:02:24does want to make peace.

0:02:24 > 0:02:27And they're going to have to want to make peace too,

0:02:27 > 0:02:29or we will have nothing to do with it any longer.

0:02:29 > 0:02:31Donald Trump also met Theresa May.

0:02:31 > 0:02:33It hasn't been plain sailing for them.

0:02:33 > 0:02:36When Donald Trump retweeted a British far-right group in November,

0:02:36 > 0:02:39the Prime Minister said this.

0:02:39 > 0:02:41I'm very clear that retweeting from Britain First

0:02:41 > 0:02:45was the wrong thing to do.

0:02:45 > 0:02:48To which Donald Trump replied "@Theresa-May, don't focus on me,

0:02:48 > 0:02:49focus on the destructive Radical Islamic Terrorism

0:02:49 > 0:02:51that is taking place within the United Kingdom.

0:02:51 > 0:02:54We are doing just fine!"

0:02:54 > 0:02:57Also, the President cancelled a visit to London to open

0:02:57 > 0:02:59the new US embassy in London.

0:02:59 > 0:03:03He said he didn't like the location.

0:03:03 > 0:03:05Some thought it was because he knew Londoners may not

0:03:05 > 0:03:07be overly welcoming.

0:03:07 > 0:03:11Well, things seemed cordial earlier.

0:03:11 > 0:03:16There is a false rumour out there. I wanted to correct it.

0:03:16 > 0:03:20I have great respect for everything you're doing.

0:03:20 > 0:03:27We love your country.

0:03:27 > 0:03:28We think it's really good.

0:03:28 > 0:03:32We are working on transactions in terms of economic reality,

0:03:32 > 0:03:33trade and most importantly, military.

0:03:33 > 0:03:38We are very much joined at the hip when it comes to the military.

0:03:38 > 0:03:44President Trump will deliver a speech in Davos on Friday.

0:03:44 > 0:03:46Bob Corker is a Republican Senator who's been very critical

0:03:46 > 0:03:48of the President, suggesting he needs supervision.

0:03:48 > 0:03:55He's been talking to Katty Kay.

0:03:55 > 0:04:00Many of the statements that have been made,

0:04:00 > 0:04:03many of the actions have caused people to wonder whether we're

0:04:03 > 0:04:04a reliable ally, reliable friend.

0:04:04 > 0:04:06I hope that when he comes and speaks tomorrow,

0:04:06 > 0:04:10that he does so in a manner to re-establish or at least build

0:04:10 > 0:04:20back some of the trust that our nation has had.

0:04:21 > 0:04:25You have to wonder what Donald Trump's motivation is. I have been

0:04:25 > 0:04:29talking to Katty Kay about that.I think he has come for a bit of a

0:04:29 > 0:04:35victory lap. There is certainly quite a bit of goodwill towards him

0:04:35 > 0:04:39from the business community, because these are the people who are

0:04:39 > 0:04:42benefiting from the global economy doing so well, from the stock market

0:04:42 > 0:04:46that is booming, and they are giving Donald Trump credit for that. I have

0:04:46 > 0:04:52even spoken to Democrats who say he does deserve credit for the

0:04:52 > 0:04:55deregulation and the tax cuts helping the markets. Business

0:04:55 > 0:04:59leaders like that a lot, so there is a slightly schizophrenic attitude.

0:04:59 > 0:05:03They don't like what he says about a lot of things. They don't like his

0:05:03 > 0:05:07tone. They don't like the way he talked about Africa recently, and

0:05:07 > 0:05:10they are nervous about the idea that there could be a protectionist

0:05:10 > 0:05:14movement coming. On the other hand, they like the way the economy is

0:05:14 > 0:05:18going and our prepared to give him a warm welcome because of that.And in

0:05:18 > 0:05:21terms of those terrorists, it presumably wasn't a coincidence that

0:05:21 > 0:05:25we had about the new tariffs on washing machines and solar panels

0:05:25 > 0:05:28before he came here. Has that dominated in the way we thought it

0:05:28 > 0:05:35would earlier in the week?No. I have asked a couple of people about

0:05:35 > 0:05:42that, and Bob Corker, the chairman of the Senate foreign relations

0:05:42 > 0:05:46committee, said the reaction has not been as severe as it might have been

0:05:46 > 0:05:49from China and South Korea over those tariffs. There is nervousness

0:05:49 > 0:05:52that this could just be the beginning. The Treasury Secretary

0:05:52 > 0:06:01today said, we do want fair and free trade. I think the global community

0:06:01 > 0:06:03is asking how far America is prepared to go to get what it would

0:06:03 > 0:06:09call fair trade.I also wanted to talk about President Trump and what

0:06:09 > 0:06:13he said as he was getting on the plane to fly to Davos. In impromptu

0:06:13 > 0:06:17remarks, he told reporters he is prepared to be questioned by Robert

0:06:17 > 0:06:20Mulder is part of the investigation into alleged Russian interference in

0:06:20 > 0:06:31the US election.

0:06:46 > 0:06:49Mr Mueller's investigation has been inching closer to the president.

0:06:49 > 0:06:52Last week, Attorney General Jeff Session was interviewed.

0:06:52 > 0:06:56He was an advisor on the Trump campaign.

0:06:56 > 0:06:59Next week, former chief strategist Steve Bannon

0:06:59 > 0:07:03is scheduled to be questioned.

0:07:03 > 0:07:05More than 20 other White House personnel have voluntarily given

0:07:05 > 0:07:11interviews to the team.

0:07:11 > 0:07:14But there are a number of different ways be Mueller investigation can

0:07:14 > 0:07:18speak to people of interest, as Katty explains.

0:07:18 > 0:07:19Listen to the language that he used.

0:07:19 > 0:07:22He said "I would love to do this".

0:07:22 > 0:07:24Since he made those remarks before coming here to Davos,

0:07:24 > 0:07:27his legal team has been slightly rowing that back or qualifying it

0:07:27 > 0:07:34and saying he will of course take legal counsel over this issue.

0:07:34 > 0:07:36That will be the big issue.

0:07:36 > 0:07:37Does he testify under oath?

0:07:37 > 0:07:39Is it a one-on-one interview with the special counsel's team?

0:07:39 > 0:07:43Is some of it done through written answers?

0:07:43 > 0:07:45That is what we don't have answers to yet.

0:07:45 > 0:07:48The president was speaking, as his lawyers said,

0:07:48 > 0:07:51speaking hurriedly before he left for Davos on this trip.

0:07:51 > 0:07:56They will be going through this with a fine comb and making sure

0:07:56 > 0:07:59that any interview that takes place with Bob Mueller is on the most

0:07:59 > 0:08:02favourable possible terms to the president and his legal team.

0:08:02 > 0:08:05Katty, while I've got you, can I ask you what it's like there?

0:08:05 > 0:08:08We see the mountains, the fireside chats and the press conferences,

0:08:08 > 0:08:11but what is it like, the bits we don't see?

0:08:11 > 0:08:15My wet feet, my pocket full of tissues and my pocket full

0:08:15 > 0:08:18of Fisherman's Friends because I'm struggling with a cold here!

0:08:18 > 0:08:22Look, I've been struck by the degree to which the antipathy

0:08:22 > 0:08:26that you might expect from the global elite

0:08:26 > 0:08:35towards Donald Trump, frankly, is not really there.

0:08:35 > 0:08:37They're prepared to give him a fair hearing tomorrow.

0:08:37 > 0:08:39They like what he's doing for the economy.

0:08:39 > 0:08:42They have slightly learned to live with some of the tweets,

0:08:42 > 0:08:44and yet America is still clearly dominating this conference.

0:08:44 > 0:08:47We talk about America retreating from the world and its president

0:08:47 > 0:08:50pulling back from issues like trade and climate change,

0:08:50 > 0:08:52but when the White House, when President Trump

0:08:52 > 0:08:55and the United States of America wants to throw its weight around

0:08:55 > 0:08:58and make its presence felt, it can absolutely do so and it's doing

0:08:58 > 0:09:08it in Switzerland this week.

0:09:10 > 0:09:14As ever, we are bringing you the biggest global stories. Let's move

0:09:14 > 0:09:15to Damascus.

0:09:15 > 0:09:18A Syrian minister has told the BBC that both Turkey and the US

0:09:18 > 0:09:21are guilty of aggression.

0:09:21 > 0:09:23In America's case, it's because last week

0:09:23 > 0:09:25US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said "The United States

0:09:25 > 0:09:28will maintain a military presence in Syria, focused on ensuring Isis

0:09:28 > 0:09:30cannot re-emerge".

0:09:30 > 0:09:31This is Syria's deputy foreign minister

0:09:31 > 0:09:41with the BBC's Lyse Doucet.

0:09:41 > 0:09:48This is a very serious issue. A long term presence of American troops on

0:09:48 > 0:09:53Syrian soil would be considered as an aggression against the

0:09:53 > 0:10:01sovereignty of Syria. It would be considered a violation of the United

0:10:01 > 0:10:08Nations Security Council resolution. But what can you do about it?...

0:10:08 > 0:10:11Which always talks about the territorial integrity of the Syrian

0:10:11 > 0:10:14people and their country. What we are going to do is a different

0:10:14 > 0:10:19issue. But when you consider such a presence as hostile, as aggressive,

0:10:19 > 0:10:29as against the territorial unity of a country, then a lot of options are

0:10:29 > 0:10:31open before the Syrian people and their government.

0:10:31 > 0:10:33The criticism for Turkey is because of its offensive

0:10:33 > 0:10:36against Kurds in Afrin in north-western Syria.

0:10:36 > 0:10:42These are the latest pictures we have.

0:10:42 > 0:10:47These are members of the Free Syrian Army

0:10:47 > 0:10:49advancing into the area - they're rebels fighting

0:10:49 > 0:10:54the Syrian government.

0:10:54 > 0:10:57But about 25,000 of their fighters are joining the Turkish forces.

0:10:57 > 0:11:02Here's the minister with Lyse again.

0:11:02 > 0:11:08The Turkish invasion is an open violation of the sovereignty of

0:11:08 > 0:11:15Syria. It is an aggression against the sovereignty of Syria.Russia

0:11:15 > 0:11:24gave the green light for that.We don't think Russia can act on behalf

0:11:24 > 0:11:28of the Syrian government or against its principles which Russia has

0:11:28 > 0:11:32always defended in Syria. So it is Turkish aggression against the

0:11:32 > 0:11:34sovereignty of Syria, and Syria has every right to answer such an

0:11:34 > 0:11:35aggression.

0:11:35 > 0:11:37I should also tell you about Syrian peace talks

0:11:37 > 0:11:39which started today in Vienna.

0:11:39 > 0:11:41They're brokered by the UN, but this is an early stage -

0:11:41 > 0:11:43the two sides are not meeting face-to-face.

0:11:43 > 0:11:49Here's an opposition figure earlier.

0:11:49 > 0:11:59Our main goal is to see the commitment of all the sides to the

0:11:59 > 0:12:06implementation of UN Security Council resolution to 254 -- 2254.

0:12:06 > 0:12:13This session was described by the UN special envoy to be a crucial one,

0:12:13 > 0:12:19and we believe that it is. On our behalf, we are committed to a free

0:12:19 > 0:12:25Syria, to a democratic one, to a country safe for its people to go

0:12:25 > 0:12:26back home.

0:12:26 > 0:12:33And Lyse has been following those talks in Damascus.

0:12:33 > 0:12:37I think the Syrians would not talk about it as their last hope, and

0:12:37 > 0:12:40certainly not the Syrian government, who continue to say they will

0:12:40 > 0:12:45continue to do what they can to find a solution. The opposition, of

0:12:45 > 0:12:48course, are dedicated to trying to achieve what they regard as a

0:12:48 > 0:12:53political transition, in other words, a Syrian future without

0:12:53 > 0:12:57Presdent Assad. But if the truth be told, the mantra from the Syrian

0:12:57 > 0:13:01government now is that the war is over. Look at the map. They feel

0:13:01 > 0:13:03they are prevailing on the battlefield and what matters to them

0:13:03 > 0:13:08now is not negotiating table is far away from Syria, it's what's

0:13:08 > 0:13:12happening on the ground. They are continuing their offensive against

0:13:12 > 0:13:20the last pockets held by the rebels.

0:13:20 > 0:13:22Next, an extraordinary statement from US diplomat Bill Richardson

0:13:23 > 0:13:24on Aung San Suu Kyi.

0:13:24 > 0:13:26He says the international panel that she set up

0:13:26 > 0:13:28on the Rohingya Crisis in Myanmar is a "whitewash" -

0:13:28 > 0:13:32and that she lacks "moral leadership."

0:13:32 > 0:13:38Given that they consider themselves friends, this is quite something.

0:13:38 > 0:13:41The quotes come in this article in the New York times.

0:13:41 > 0:13:44He also says Aung San Suu Kyi has "developed an arrogance of power."

0:13:44 > 0:13:47And she's "basically unwilling to listen to bad news," and "this

0:13:47 > 0:13:49board was being used as a cheerleading squad

0:13:49 > 0:13:50for the government."

0:13:50 > 0:13:53Myanmar's already responded, saying Richardson has an agenda.

0:13:53 > 0:13:55All of this is connected to the Rohingya crisis

0:13:55 > 0:13:57in which over 600,000 people have crossed from Myanmar

0:13:57 > 0:14:00into Bangladesh.

0:14:00 > 0:14:09They're living in camps like these,

0:14:09 > 0:14:11though there are plans to try and get them home

0:14:11 > 0:14:12in the next two years.

0:14:12 > 0:14:22Jonathan Head has more on this in Yangon.

0:14:30 > 0:14:32Bill Richardson clearly felt that the panel he was part of was

0:14:32 > 0:14:38ineffective. He has described how he felt it didn't have a mandate to

0:14:38 > 0:14:41address the real issues. He could have resigned more quietly. He used

0:14:41 > 0:14:45to visit Aung San Suu Kyi as far back as the early 1990s, when she

0:14:45 > 0:14:49was under house arrest, and has remained deeply engaged in Myanmar,

0:14:49 > 0:14:53with a lot of projects here. It's a very detailed statement. He

0:14:53 > 0:14:57describes her as having an arrogance of power, of being trapped in a

0:14:57 > 0:15:00bubble, surrounded by sycophants and psychopaths, telling her what she

0:15:00 > 0:15:11wants to hear. He

0:15:12 > 0:15:15said he was taken aback by the hostility that she and other

0:15:15 > 0:15:16officials showed towards international organisations, the

0:15:16 > 0:15:18media, the UN and human rights groups, blaming them for the

0:15:18 > 0:15:21troubling Rakhine state and he felt he could not continue in his role.

0:15:21 > 0:15:23He has said that she is in effect parroting the generals, speaking

0:15:23 > 0:15:26their language and not speaking up for the things that she once said

0:15:26 > 0:15:28she believed in. That is why he says he is so disappointed, that he

0:15:28 > 0:15:31expected her to show moral leadership. He accepts that she is

0:15:31 > 0:15:33in a difficult position, but said that is no excuse for not showing

0:15:33 > 0:15:38any leadership. The picture he paints is of an isolated leader,

0:15:38 > 0:15:45somebody stubbornly sticking to her views and parroting the military. He

0:15:45 > 0:15:48referenced those Reuters journalists. He came here perhaps

0:15:48 > 0:15:51mistakenly believing that his influence would get them released.

0:15:51 > 0:15:55He raised their case consistently with Aung San Suu Kyi. A lot of

0:15:55 > 0:15:58people feel they were targeted by the military for their

0:15:58 > 0:16:01investigations into Rakhine state. He said her response was to insist

0:16:01 > 0:16:04that they had broken the Official Secrets Act and to get so angry that

0:16:04 > 0:16:11he felt that at one point, she might hit him.In a few minutes, we will

0:16:11 > 0:16:15report on a story from El Salvador. A teenage girl has been sentenced to

0:16:15 > 0:16:1930 years in prison after having what she claims was a miscarriage. The

0:16:19 > 0:16:30prosecution say she killed her baby.

0:17:28 > 0:17:35This is Outside Source, live from the BBC newsroom.

0:17:35 > 0:17:36Our lead story comes from Switzerland.

0:17:36 > 0:17:39Donald Trump has arrived at the World Economic Forum in Davos,

0:17:39 > 0:17:42where he'll be pushing his America First message.

0:17:42 > 0:17:46He gives a major speech tomorrow. Let's turn to some of the main

0:17:46 > 0:17:47stories on BBC World Service.

0:17:47 > 0:17:50The new leader of South Africa's governing ANC party has told the BBC

0:17:50 > 0:17:52that the country has been badly affected by corruption

0:17:52 > 0:17:55and that the state had been captured by people purporting to be close

0:17:55 > 0:17:58to President Jacob Zuma.

0:17:58 > 0:18:00The president of Michigan State University has resigned over

0:18:00 > 0:18:03the scandal surrounding years of sexual abuse by the former

0:18:03 > 0:18:04USA Gymnastics team doctor, Larry Nassar.

0:18:04 > 0:18:10Nassar used to work at the university.

0:18:10 > 0:18:12And Jose Mourinho has extended his contract as manager

0:18:12 > 0:18:22at Manchester United until 2020, with an option for another year.

0:18:24 > 0:18:26Mass vaccination campaigns are getting under way in Nigeria

0:18:26 > 0:18:27and Brazil against yellow fever.

0:18:27 > 0:18:32This is a mosquito-borne disease.

0:18:32 > 0:18:34The World Health Organisation says approximately 45,000 people died

0:18:34 > 0:18:35of yellow fever globally in 2013.

0:18:35 > 0:18:38In Nigeria, it's hoped 25 million people will be immunised this year.

0:18:38 > 0:18:40And in Brazil, the mass vaccination programmes will start

0:18:40 > 0:18:43in Sao Paulo and Rio de Janerio before moving north

0:18:43 > 0:18:53to Bahia next month.

0:19:03 > 0:19:08Let's speak to Julia Carneiro in Rio de Janeiro. It sounds like a huge

0:19:08 > 0:19:15undertaking.Yes, it is. We have had yellow fever over the years in

0:19:15 > 0:19:19Brazil, but cases have started to spread and the authorities are under

0:19:19 > 0:19:22alert because new cases are appearing in areas in the south-east

0:19:22 > 0:19:28of Brazil that didn't have yellow fever yet. The fear is that it may

0:19:28 > 0:19:32reach urban centres like the big cities of Rio de Janeiro and Sao

0:19:32 > 0:19:37Paulo. So far, we have seen yellow fever cases in smaller cities and in

0:19:37 > 0:19:44rural areas, but if it gets too big cities, it will be hard to control.

0:19:44 > 0:19:52So their anticipated this campaign to start in almost 150 cities to

0:19:52 > 0:19:55vaccinate people, responding as well to a rush to health centres that we

0:19:55 > 0:19:58have seen over the past weeks, with huge queues forming for people to

0:19:58 > 0:20:05get their vaccines.So vaccines are one way of defending people against

0:20:05 > 0:20:09yellow fever, but presumably there are broader strategies as well?

0:20:09 > 0:20:16Vaccines are the main strategy. By focusing on Rio and Sao Paulo, they

0:20:16 > 0:20:21are trying to keep the areas that were still unharmed by the virus

0:20:21 > 0:20:28from being affected. It is like they are building a cordon of

0:20:28 > 0:20:33immunisation to protect areas from the virus. Here in Rio and in Sao

0:20:33 > 0:20:40Paulo, we have seen cases of monkeys which are carriers of the virus.

0:20:40 > 0:20:44They are not the ones that transmit the virus. It is transmitted by

0:20:44 > 0:20:48mosquitoes, so they are victims as well. And when the monkeys start

0:20:48 > 0:20:52buying, it's a sign that the disease is approaching. So here in Rio and

0:20:52 > 0:20:57Sao Paulo, there has been lots of alarm, with the monkeys appearing.

0:20:57 > 0:21:03That is a sign that the disease could be approaching. But the

0:21:03 > 0:21:09authorities here are campaigning to protect the animals. Because of this

0:21:09 > 0:21:13fear, there are signs that people might be poisoning or harming

0:21:13 > 0:21:17animals, thinking that they are the culprits. They are not, they are

0:21:17 > 0:21:22victims as well. This is one more mosquito borne disease that Brazil

0:21:22 > 0:21:28is trying to cope with, yet another summer after the Zika epidemic, the

0:21:28 > 0:21:35dinky -- dengue fever as well. Perhaps we can catch up with you

0:21:35 > 0:21:38later and find out how that vaccination programme is going.

0:21:38 > 0:21:41President Trump's at the World Economic Forum in Davos.

0:21:41 > 0:21:51He's been talking about UK-US trade.

0:21:55 > 0:21:59Trade discussions will be taking place and are going to lead to

0:21:59 > 0:22:02tremendous increases in trade between our countries, which is

0:22:02 > 0:22:07great for both in terms of jobs. We look forward to that and we are

0:22:07 > 0:22:13starting that process as we speak. Now to a story that Theresa May and

0:22:13 > 0:22:18Donald Trump will be paying attention to. Samira Hussain joins

0:22:18 > 0:22:22me. We have been exchanging messages and you were telling me there was a

0:22:22 > 0:22:27big moment coming for bombardier tomorrow?Exactly. The international

0:22:27 > 0:22:31trade commission is going to weigh in in a dispute between the beer,

0:22:31 > 0:22:38the Canadian plane-maker, and Boeing, the US plane making giant.

0:22:38 > 0:22:44This is a dispute we talked about last year. Boeing says that

0:22:44 > 0:22:47bombardier has made this whole fleet of planes, but they have done at

0:22:47 > 0:22:52below cost and that is a no-no in international trade. So the US has

0:22:52 > 0:22:59slapped a 300% tariff on any of the specific Bombardier planes coming

0:22:59 > 0:23:03into the United States, which basically cuts of these Bombardier

0:23:03 > 0:23:07planes from the US market. Why is Theresa May getting involved in this

0:23:07 > 0:23:12dispute? Well, it is because there are a lot of jobs in Northern

0:23:12 > 0:23:19Ireland that are at risk. Bombardier is the largest private employer in

0:23:19 > 0:23:23Northern Ireland, some 4000 jobs. So if they are no longer able to sell

0:23:23 > 0:23:26these planes to the United States, a lot of those jobs could be in

0:23:26 > 0:23:29jeopardy.We often talk about rulings and I sometimes wonder if

0:23:29 > 0:23:34they are the end of the matter. Could it continue beyond that

0:23:34 > 0:23:40decision?Of course it's not the end of the matter! There are many more

0:23:40 > 0:23:45avenues for this to go. Canada has said that if it doesn't rule in

0:23:45 > 0:23:50their favour, they will want to take this to other avenues. They could

0:23:50 > 0:23:53take it to the World Trade Organisation. Prime Minister Justin

0:23:53 > 0:23:59Trudeau has said he will take it to the Nafta tribunal. Those are the

0:23:59 > 0:24:02trade mechanisms that have been put in place by the North American Free

0:24:02 > 0:24:06Trade Agreement. But those dispute resolution mechanisms are actually

0:24:06 > 0:24:17something that President Trump wants to get rid of altogether.Thank you.

0:24:17 > 0:24:21Now, we are being told we are 30 seconds closer to the end of the

0:24:21 > 0:24:25world.

0:24:25 > 0:24:27This message is coming courtesy of the Doomsday Clock.

0:24:27 > 0:24:30Here it is - it's a symbol designed to give

0:24:30 > 0:24:32an assessment of how unstable the world is - the closer

0:24:32 > 0:24:34it gets to midnight, the worse things are.

0:24:34 > 0:24:37It's run by a team of science leaders, and now they've moved us

0:24:37 > 0:24:40to two minutes to midnight.

0:24:40 > 0:24:42They say the world is a more dangerous place

0:24:42 > 0:24:44because of nuclear concerns and because of how world leaders

0:24:44 > 0:24:46are handling the crisis - that's a reference to Trump

0:24:47 > 0:24:48and Kim Jong Un.

0:24:48 > 0:24:51The last time the clock was so close to midnight was in 1953 -

0:24:51 > 0:24:54that's when the US and Soviet Union were testing hydrogen bombs.

0:24:54 > 0:25:00Here are two of the scientists.

0:25:00 > 0:25:05In 2017, we moved the clock from three to two and a half minutes to

0:25:05 > 0:25:09midnight, an unprecedented step that reflected a darkening security

0:25:09 > 0:25:11landscape, characterised by an increasing recklessness around

0:25:11 > 0:25:17nuclear rhetoric and the increasing attacks on expert and expertise

0:25:17 > 0:25:21worldwide, at the exact moment when such expertise is needed.For the

0:25:21 > 0:25:27first time in many years, no US- Russian nuclear arms negotiations

0:25:27 > 0:25:31are under way. If the draft US nuclear past review is any guide to

0:25:31 > 0:25:35US policy, there will be no US - Russia nuclear arms control

0:25:35 > 0:25:39negotiations for the foreseeable future. Instead, we could see a

0:25:39 > 0:25:44return to a nuclear arms race. Thank you for watching the first

0:25:44 > 0:25:47half of Outside Source. We will be back with you in a couple of

0:25:47 > 0:25:51minutes. If you want to see that speech by Donald Trump at Davos,

0:25:51 > 0:25:57whether you are watching in the UK on the new channel or elsewhere on

0:25:57 > 0:26:01BBC World News, you will of course see it live.

0:26:08 > 0:26:13Welcome to a look at the weather elsewhere around the globe. Real

0:26:13 > 0:26:17contrast in the temperatures showing up across Asia, from the -4 to start

0:26:17 > 0:26:23the morning on Thursday in Tokyo. That is the coldest it has been in

0:26:23 > 0:26:26Tokyo for 48 years, almost record-breaking, with a lot of snow

0:26:26 > 0:26:30on the ground. It will stay cold and the north-westerly wind will

0:26:30 > 0:26:33continue to blow across the sea of Japan and deposit more snow across

0:26:33 > 0:26:38parts of Japan. It is also bitterly cold across the Korean peninsula.

0:26:38 > 0:26:44Drier here. The highs on Friday are about -10 Celsius. The chill is

0:26:44 > 0:26:48across parts of China as well. We could see more snow around Yangtze

0:26:48 > 0:26:52and Shanghai. In contrast, we are on track for the warmest January on

0:26:52 > 0:26:57record in parts of New Zealand. 37 was the highest average we have seen

0:26:57 > 0:27:01in a significant amount of time, seven years, and that was in north

0:27:01 > 0:27:05Canterbury. The heat is not just happening in New Zealand, it is also

0:27:05 > 0:27:09with us across Australia. Temperatures continue to rise for

0:27:09 > 0:27:12Adelaide and Melbourne, pushing its way east with those interior winds,

0:27:12 > 0:27:20picking on Sunday. Pretty hot for the men's tennis final on Sunday.

0:27:20 > 0:27:24Then it will all culminate in some nasty stormy weather because of this

0:27:24 > 0:27:28weather system. You have the interior winds, the heat building

0:27:28 > 0:27:32ahead of it and then storms to follow. We could have a tropical low

0:27:32 > 0:27:38with us across northern territories. It has been a quiet rainy season in

0:27:38 > 0:27:41northern territories so far, and we are expecting much wetter weather to

0:27:41 > 0:27:44come which could result in flash flooding. Unfortunately, we need the

0:27:44 > 0:27:48rain in Cape Town and other parts of South Africa, but there is no sign

0:27:48 > 0:27:52of it at the moment. There will be some further east towards Pretoria,

0:27:52 > 0:27:58but it is looking dry and warm. The warmth that is building with these

0:27:58 > 0:28:03southerly winds later in the week across the USA's Southern states and

0:28:03 > 0:28:06later central and eastern states gives concern for flooding because

0:28:06 > 0:28:11it has been so cold. We will see the snow melting on top of heavy rains,

0:28:11 > 0:28:16so there is concern for flash flooding in this part of the world.

0:28:16 > 0:28:20And the flooding risk remains high across parts of Europe. We have seen

0:28:20 > 0:28:23the River Seine break its banks. We have further rain to come here and

0:28:23 > 0:28:32snow across the Alps. The weather fronts will continue to blow across

0:28:32 > 0:28:36Norway and Denmark, with yet more snow through Friday to Saturday

0:28:36 > 0:28:40across the Pyrenees and the Alpine regions. Temperatures will

0:28:40 > 0:28:43fluctuate, meaning the avalanche risk will remain high if not very

0:28:43 > 0:28:47high at times. The unprecedented season continues with more snowfall

0:28:47 > 0:28:55to come, and significant amounts as well. In the UK, Darren will have

0:28:55 > 0:29:00more for you in half an hour.

0:30:06 > 0:30:08Hello, I'm Ros Atkins, this is Outside Source,

0:30:08 > 0:30:11and these are the main stories here in the BBC Newsroom

0:30:11 > 0:30:13Donald Trump has arrived at the World Economic Forum in Davos -

0:30:13 > 0:30:19where he'll be pushing his pushing his America First message.

0:30:19 > 0:30:22The US said they'd keep their troops in Syria to make sure the so-called

0:30:22 > 0:30:23Islamic State don't come back.

0:30:23 > 0:30:31The Syrian Foreign Minister tells us they're not happy with the idea.

0:30:31 > 0:30:35Long-term presence of American troops on Syrian soil will be

0:30:35 > 0:30:38considered as an aggression against the sovereignty of Syria.

0:30:38 > 0:30:41In El Salvador, a teenage girl has been sentenced to 30 years in prison

0:30:41 > 0:30:43after having what she claims is a miscarriage.

0:30:43 > 0:30:47The prosecution say she killed her baby.

0:30:47 > 0:30:51And is there a better way to warn against tsunamis?

0:30:51 > 0:30:55A group of Welsh scientists say yes.

0:31:12 > 0:31:16I want to return to our top story.

0:31:20 > 0:31:21There have been clashes between Hardline Hindus

0:31:22 > 0:31:23and police in northern India.

0:31:23 > 0:31:25The hindus are angry about a Bollywood film -

0:31:25 > 0:31:26and they've been threatened cinema-goers too.

0:31:26 > 0:31:28These pictures show the police guarding

0:31:28 > 0:31:29Indian cinemas today - this involved thousands

0:31:29 > 0:31:32of them across the country.

0:31:32 > 0:31:35The film is called Padmaavat - the protestors are upset

0:31:35 > 0:31:37by what they believe is a romance between a Hindu queen

0:31:37 > 0:31:39and Muslim ruler - though many people who watch

0:31:39 > 0:31:43the film say there is no romance.

0:31:43 > 0:31:45These protests have been going for weeks.

0:31:45 > 0:31:47Vehicles have been burned, a school bus was attacked,

0:31:47 > 0:31:52some cinemas have refused to show the film.

0:31:52 > 0:31:55More serious still - the actress who plays the queen

0:31:55 > 0:31:59is Deepika Padukone - massive star - and she's been

0:31:59 > 0:32:03receiving death threats.

0:32:03 > 0:32:08Here she is talking about this.

0:32:21 > 0:32:23As I was saying, this is a confusing story,

0:32:23 > 0:32:26but a romance is not depicted in the film.

0:32:26 > 0:32:36Pratiksha Ghildial in Dehli can help us with this.

0:32:36 > 0:32:40I'm outside a popular cinema complex in central Delhi where the

0:32:40 > 0:32:45controversial film is being screened right now. As you can see, there is

0:32:45 > 0:32:50heavy security presence outside the theatre to ensure that there is no

0:32:50 > 0:32:54violence. For months now, this film has been at the centre of violent

0:32:54 > 0:32:58protests, and this week marks clashes with police across the

0:32:58 > 0:33:05country. They have set vehicles on fire and randomised cinema halls.

0:33:05 > 0:33:08Schools have been shot in certain areas outside Delhi because a school

0:33:08 > 0:33:13bus was attacked, and its windows smashed.I did not find anything

0:33:13 > 0:33:19controversial in the movie. All the rock going on now is uncalled for.

0:33:19 > 0:33:25There is nothing controversial in the film except the scene where she

0:33:25 > 0:33:29comes outside, nothing else, everything is fine in the movie.So

0:33:29 > 0:33:33why is this done so controversial? Hindu hardline groups allege the

0:33:33 > 0:33:36film is disrespectful of their culture because at a betrays a

0:33:36 > 0:33:41romantic relationship between Hindu Queen and a 14th century Muslim

0:33:41 > 0:33:47ruler. According to them, that is historically inaccurate. However,

0:33:47 > 0:33:53here's the thing. While historians agree that the ruler and existed,

0:33:53 > 0:33:58there is little proof of the Hindu Queen's existence. Still all this

0:33:58 > 0:34:04unrest, quite extraordinarily, over a film.

0:34:04 > 0:34:07A teenage girl in El Salvador has been sentenced to 30 years in prison

0:34:07 > 0:34:09after having what she claims is a miscarriage.

0:34:09 > 0:34:11The prosecution allege she killed her baby.

0:34:11 > 0:34:13Abortion in all forms is banned in the country -

0:34:13 > 0:34:15and cases of miscarriages and still births are often

0:34:15 > 0:34:18considered abortions Since 1998 over 600 women have been imprisoned

0:34:18 > 0:34:24under these laws.

0:34:24 > 0:34:26Evelyn Hernandez told the BBC she didn't even

0:34:26 > 0:34:34realise she was pregnant.

0:35:10 > 0:35:14Well, Evelyn's mother also spoke to the BBC.

0:35:14 > 0:35:19Here she explains how the police got involved.

0:35:59 > 0:36:01But not everyone in the country has sympathy

0:36:01 > 0:36:02for the teenager's situation.

0:36:02 > 0:36:07Here's a politician who thinks her punishment should be harsher.

0:36:11 > 0:36:15I don't see the difference between killing a kid and killing a baby

0:36:15 > 0:36:19inside the womb of his mother. Evelyn was sentenced because of a

0:36:19 > 0:36:26homicide?Yes, homicide.She did not know she was pregnant, she gave

0:36:26 > 0:36:31birth, a stillbirth?She killed the baby. She did not know that she was

0:36:31 > 0:36:35pregnant? For real? That is the argument?Have you ever been

0:36:35 > 0:36:41pregnant?No, I am a man.There are cases where women do not know they

0:36:41 > 0:36:44are pregnant.There are cases, go read the file.

0:36:44 > 0:36:51Let's speak to Beatriz Diez from BBC Mundo in Los Angeles.

0:36:51 > 0:36:56I'm interested to ask you what public opinion is on these laws,

0:36:56 > 0:37:04doesn't support them?Actually, this case has been very controversial,

0:37:04 > 0:37:07because there is some support in the public opinion and also even in the

0:37:07 > 0:37:13medical sector of trying to make amends to the law, because they say

0:37:13 > 0:37:17abortion should be allowed in certain cases. In this case, public

0:37:17 > 0:37:22opinion is supporting Evelyn Hernandez, and not only help the of

0:37:22 > 0:37:32many women that find themselves wet miscarriages are considered

0:37:32 > 0:37:40abortions, and there is no way for them to be taken into account.In

0:37:40 > 0:37:44terms of the political dialogue in El Salvador, is this a live

0:37:44 > 0:37:46political issue or is there consensus that the laws are

0:37:46 > 0:37:51generally correct?Actually, there is an initiative trying to reform

0:37:51 > 0:38:00the law. There was a proposal in October 2016 where they want to make

0:38:00 > 0:38:06it easier, for example in cases of rape, or danger for the health of

0:38:06 > 0:38:11the mother, or even in cases of an unviable foetus, but the problem is

0:38:11 > 0:38:18that law, that proposal has not seen any advancement. It has laid there,

0:38:18 > 0:38:23it has not even left the committee where it has been discussed. It is

0:38:23 > 0:38:33now a year and a half later and there is no new advances.You cover

0:38:33 > 0:38:36countries across southern and central America, how does El

0:38:36 > 0:38:40Salvador compare with the other countries you report on?Actually,

0:38:40 > 0:38:44if we think about Central America, it's very similar, because there are

0:38:44 > 0:38:51only five countries in the world where abortion is completely banned.

0:38:51 > 0:38:58There are many of those countries in South America, El Salvador,

0:38:58 > 0:39:00Honduras, Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic. In that area it

0:39:00 > 0:39:07very similar. It compares very well to the situation in all the other

0:39:07 > 0:39:13countries, because Chile for example was also in the same situation

0:39:13 > 0:39:18recently, where last August abortion was analysed in some circumstances.

0:39:18 > 0:39:26Now we see mostly countries in the world that are so strict in art in

0:39:26 > 0:39:33Central America. -- abortion was penalised.We are indebted to the

0:39:33 > 0:39:38BBC's language 's sources, we have amazing journalists working all over

0:39:38 > 0:39:45the world in over 30 languages. You can get news in Spanish, news and

0:39:45 > 0:39:57pharmacy, news in Arabic and so on. You can find them all online.

0:40:02 > 0:40:04The issue of cancer has been thrust into the spotlight today

0:40:04 > 0:40:11after former government minister Tessa Jowell, now Baroness Jowell,s

0:40:11 > 0:40:12spoke in the House of Lords.

0:40:12 > 0:40:16She has a brain tumour known as glioblastoma - or GBM.

0:40:16 > 0:40:18There's less than 3,000 people diagnosed with this

0:40:18 > 0:40:24every year in the UK.

0:40:24 > 0:40:26And it generally has a poor prognosis.

0:40:26 > 0:40:28Despite that less than 2% of cancer research funding

0:40:28 > 0:40:37goes to brain tumours.

0:40:37 > 0:40:39And it's been 50 years since new drugs have been produced.

0:40:39 > 0:40:42Well, now Baroness Jowell is calling for new cancer treatments and trials

0:40:42 > 0:40:50to be available on the NHS.

0:40:50 > 0:40:56This is what she had to say.

0:40:56 > 0:41:01Seamus Heaney's last words were, do not be afraid.

0:41:01 > 0:41:09I am not afraid.

0:41:09 > 0:41:12I am fearful that this new and important approach may be

0:41:12 > 0:41:22put into the "Too difficult" box.

0:41:22 > 0:41:25But I also have such great hope, so many cancer patients collaborate

0:41:25 > 0:41:28and support each other every day, they create that community

0:41:28 > 0:41:35of love and determination.

0:41:35 > 0:41:37That they find each other every day.

0:41:37 > 0:41:39All we now ask is that doctors and health systems learn

0:41:40 > 0:41:46to do with the same.

0:41:46 > 0:41:48And for us to work together.

0:41:48 > 0:41:50To learn from each other.

0:41:50 > 0:41:54In the end, what gives a life meaning is not only how it is lived,

0:41:54 > 0:41:59but how it draws to a close.

0:41:59 > 0:42:02but how it draws to a close.

0:42:02 > 0:42:07I hope that this debate will give hope to other cancer patients,

0:42:07 > 0:42:15like me, so that we can live well together with cancer.

0:42:15 > 0:42:19Not just dying of it.

0:42:19 > 0:42:22All of us for longer.

0:42:35 > 0:42:38Scientists at Cardiff university in Wales are developing a more

0:42:38 > 0:42:39advanced early-warning alarm system for Tsunamis.

0:42:39 > 0:42:42It uses sound waves, here's how it works.

0:42:42 > 0:42:52You can see the sea bed shaking with an earthquake.

0:42:55 > 0:42:59The current early warning system for a Tsunami uses

0:42:59 > 0:43:02a worldwide network of buoys - here you see it, it relies

0:43:02 > 0:43:04on the Tsunami physically reaching the buoy before

0:43:04 > 0:43:05triggering the alarm.

0:43:05 > 0:43:07Now here's how the new system will work...

0:43:07 > 0:43:10It's based on measuring underwater sound waves

0:43:10 > 0:43:14- these 'Acoustic Gravity Waves' travel more than ten times faster

0:43:14 > 0:43:16than the tsunami, the waves are picked up by an underwater

0:43:16 > 0:43:20hydrophone triggering the warning in minutes.

0:43:20 > 0:43:24This study of sound waves to monitor an incoming tsunami dates back to

0:43:24 > 0:43:29the 80s. Because sound waves travel so much faster than the waves

0:43:29 > 0:43:34actually do, there has been a lot of interest in whether we can use this

0:43:34 > 0:43:38for a tsunami warning system. What these scientists have done in a new

0:43:38 > 0:43:42research is to generate information from that sound wave in terms of how

0:43:42 > 0:43:46much the sea floor has been displaced. What you need to know is

0:43:46 > 0:43:51basically, if you think of a fault is collapsing at the point of an

0:43:51 > 0:43:54earthquake, that up push, that displacement, that gives you the

0:43:54 > 0:44:00volume of the wave, that gives you the way. They have studied for a

0:44:00 > 0:44:03long time the properties of that sound wave, and now they have

0:44:03 > 0:44:07figured out a way to mathematically break that down and they what they

0:44:07 > 0:44:10can work out from the information that tells them just how big and

0:44:10 > 0:44:14destructive that wave will be. That's the thing they need to factor

0:44:14 > 0:44:19in to build this into a tsunami warning system.Given the Boxing Day

0:44:19 > 0:44:23tsunami over ten years ago, I'm surprised we were talking about this

0:44:23 > 0:44:33technology earlier.It is such a huge offence, 230,000 killed in 11

0:44:33 > 0:44:36countries, this is a hugely destructive potential issue. But

0:44:36 > 0:44:42they are very difficult to study. What these scientists from Cardiff

0:44:42 > 0:44:46had to do was with a series of underwater microphones, waiting for

0:44:46 > 0:44:50a Woakes to happen in order to get their data that they can then pull

0:44:50 > 0:44:55apart. Then figure out how big that wave will be. In order to create

0:44:55 > 0:45:01this model that they build into analytics, they needed tsunamis.

0:45:01 > 0:45:04They have to wait for all these unpredictable seismic events to

0:45:04 > 0:45:08happen to get their science done, so that's why it takes a long time to

0:45:08 > 0:45:14study this.Assuming this new system is better and everyone agrees, how

0:45:14 > 0:45:17practical is it to have it in position and all the places in the

0:45:17 > 0:45:22world where we might need to measure these kinds of things?Actually,

0:45:22 > 0:45:25very practical, and much cheaper potentially than this relay network

0:45:25 > 0:45:32of boys that we have at the moment. That looks for the displacement of

0:45:32 > 0:45:36the actual wave, because it just uses microphones. That's what's

0:45:36 > 0:45:39exciting about this study. Because they have drilled down the maths to

0:45:39 > 0:45:43get the information from the way, that is the missing link. We have

0:45:43 > 0:45:47the microphones and the events, what we need is that in between bits to

0:45:47 > 0:45:52be able to plug in and say yes, we have a sin army coming that could

0:45:52 > 0:45:54potentially be disastrous so we trigger the warning and set the

0:45:54 > 0:46:00alarm. -- we have a umami coming. The headline benefit is that we find

0:46:00 > 0:46:04out soon and have more information coming as well.Those sound waves

0:46:04 > 0:46:12coming from the event itself travel so much faster than the wave.

0:46:12 > 0:46:15Donald Trump in Davos has spoken about the middle east.

0:46:15 > 0:46:17He was meeting with Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu

0:46:17 > 0:46:20when he was asked if talks can resume with the Palestinians.

0:46:20 > 0:46:27Let's hear his answer again.

0:46:27 > 0:46:31When they disrespected us a week ago by not allowing our great vice

0:46:31 > 0:46:36president to see them, and we give them hundreds of millions of dollars

0:46:36 > 0:46:40in aid and support, tremendous numbers. Numbers that nobody

0:46:40 > 0:46:44understands. That money is on the table and is not going to them,

0:46:44 > 0:46:49unless they sit down and negotiate peace. I can tell you, Israel does

0:46:49 > 0:46:54want to make peace. They will have to want to make peace, too, or we

0:46:54 > 0:46:56will have nothing to do with it any longer.

0:46:56 > 0:46:58The State Department has now confirmed all US

0:46:58 > 0:46:59assistance to the Palestinians is being reviewed.

0:46:59 > 0:47:02That announcement was followed by this from US Ambassador to the UN,

0:47:02 > 0:47:05Nikki Haley: "The United States remains deeply committed to helping

0:47:05 > 0:47:07the Israelis and Palestinians reach a historic peace

0:47:07 > 0:47:10agreement," she said.

0:47:10 > 0:47:12"But we will not chase after a Palestinian leadership that

0:47:12 > 0:47:17lacks what is needed to achieve peace.

0:47:17 > 0:47:19To get historic results, we need courageous leaders."

0:47:19 > 0:47:21Well, for reaction to those comments, I am joined

0:47:21 > 0:47:25by the Palestinian Ambassador to the United States,

0:47:25 > 0:47:35Dr Husam Zomlot.

0:47:37 > 0:47:44Thank you for your time. What do you make of what the president has said?

0:47:44 > 0:47:48Very shocking indeed. It's shocking the statement itself and the state

0:47:48 > 0:47:53of affairs of international relations altogether. Number one,

0:47:53 > 0:47:57about the Palestinian people and the leadership being disrespectful, we

0:47:57 > 0:48:02were not disrespectful. We were just respectful of our rights and

0:48:02 > 0:48:06defending our internationally endorsed rights, we were respectful

0:48:06 > 0:48:09of our people, a people that have been struggling for many many years

0:48:09 > 0:48:14for their birthrights. We were respectful for the international

0:48:14 > 0:48:18community, international resolutions and consensus.But the Vice

0:48:18 > 0:48:21President Mike Pence would have liked to have met the Palestinians

0:48:21 > 0:48:24and you did not want to. In that specific moments, you did turn away

0:48:24 > 0:48:31from the Americans?In that specific moment, we were just saying meetings

0:48:31 > 0:48:36are not for the sake of meetings. The decision taken by this

0:48:36 > 0:48:40administration regarding Jerusalem was a decision that effectively shut

0:48:40 > 0:48:47down the conversation, these are the peace prospects. We have never ever

0:48:47 > 0:48:50negotiated principles, Jerusalem and the UN Security Council resolutions

0:48:50 > 0:48:56and the commitment of the US over the last 46 years has been firm in

0:48:56 > 0:48:59writing, and therefore we needed to make sure our rights are very

0:48:59 > 0:49:07well-known and nobody would actually take off our legitimate issues. Any

0:49:07 > 0:49:11table, I just want to say...Let me be clear on this because it's

0:49:11 > 0:49:15important, do you consider the decision to recognise Jerusalem as

0:49:15 > 0:49:20Israel's capital to have shot down the talks, ie without a reverse that

0:49:20 > 0:49:26decision, the talks cannot possibly begin?Talks about what, my friend?

0:49:26 > 0:49:32We have been engaged in talks since 1991 on very firm international

0:49:32 > 0:49:35basis, consensus, including the US, they led the international efforts.

0:49:35 > 0:49:41These talks were about to enter Israel's occupation began in 1967,

0:49:41 > 0:49:44including injuries and. These talks were clearly not about recognising

0:49:44 > 0:49:51by America or the rest of the world Israel's control or annexation.I

0:49:51 > 0:49:53understand your border concerns about what has happened over the

0:49:53 > 0:49:57last few decades but you seem to be saying, without a reverse of that

0:49:57 > 0:50:01decision, there cannot be talks. The Americans seem to say unless you

0:50:01 > 0:50:03change your position, you will not be getting a lot of money you

0:50:03 > 0:50:07currently receive. Are you concerned about what consequence that will

0:50:07 > 0:50:12have for many hundreds of thousands of Palestinians?Yes, of course we

0:50:12 > 0:50:16are concerned. This will directly affect hundreds of thousands, if not

0:50:16 > 0:50:20millions of innocent people, vulnerable people, refugees, all

0:50:20 > 0:50:24over the region, not only in Palestine, but in Jordan, Lebanon

0:50:24 > 0:50:29and Syria. It is extremely unfortunate the state of affairs is

0:50:29 > 0:50:35at this level. Let me say this clearly. Financial pressure for

0:50:35 > 0:50:38coercive political agendas does not work. It does not work when a

0:50:38 > 0:50:43dignified nation like ours, it does not work, especially when our

0:50:43 > 0:50:47position is supported by the international community, and for a

0:50:47 > 0:50:51very well rooted, ancient nation like ours. When you offer a choice

0:50:51 > 0:50:55like this between their very legitimate rights, to have a state

0:50:55 > 0:51:02of their own, to their own city, east Jerusalem is a city we own.Let

0:51:02 > 0:51:07me ask you this finally, then. I hear your passion. There is no

0:51:07 > 0:51:10possibility Donald Trump is going to change his mind about recognising

0:51:10 > 0:51:16Jerusalem, he has only just done it. What happens now?Well, the most

0:51:16 > 0:51:20important thing is that we solidify, strengthen our commitment as

0:51:20 > 0:51:23Palestinians and the Palestinian president has been clear we remain

0:51:23 > 0:51:30absolutely committed to the two state solution from 1967, we remain

0:51:30 > 0:51:33committed to international consensus and we remain committed to

0:51:33 > 0:51:39nonviolence and our adherence to a genuine peace process, and that

0:51:39 > 0:51:42requires international intervention for many years. We remain the

0:51:42 > 0:51:48exception in all other conflicts, it was only international mechanisms

0:51:48 > 0:51:51for implementing international principles that delivered success.

0:51:51 > 0:51:56Now we say, no way. We need an international table. President Trump

0:51:56 > 0:52:00has not taken Jerusalem off the table, he has taken the table

0:52:00 > 0:52:03altogether. We need to establish a genuine table that can take us where

0:52:03 > 0:52:16we want to go.Thank you very much for joining us.

0:52:16 > 0:52:19We're not trying to be funny here, but do you see a likeness

0:52:19 > 0:52:20between these two pictures?

0:52:20 > 0:52:22Left, a mummified woman from the 18th century.

0:52:22 > 0:52:23Right, the Uk's Foreign Secretary, Boris Johnson.

0:52:23 > 0:52:25Scientists have just found out they're related.

0:52:25 > 0:52:28Her body was discovered in 1975 buried in Switzerland in Basel

0:52:28 > 0:52:30cathedral and they've been trying to identify ever since.

0:52:30 > 0:52:33Only now thanks to DNA techniques they finally know

0:52:33 > 0:52:40she is Anna Catharina Bischoff, here's an artists impression of her,

0:52:40 > 0:52:43they also discovered she's Boris Johnson's

0:52:43 > 0:52:49great-great-great-great-great-great- -great grandmother.

0:52:49 > 0:52:59Imogen Foulkes, Basel.

0:52:59 > 0:53:02Back in 1975 workmen were renovating this church in Basel and they made

0:53:02 > 0:53:04an unusual discovery.

0:53:04 > 0:53:05The body of a mummified woman.

0:53:05 > 0:53:08She had been buried right in front of the altar and was wearing

0:53:08 > 0:53:09good-quality clothes.

0:53:09 > 0:53:11She was also quite plump.

0:53:11 > 0:53:14That indicates a wealthy lady.

0:53:14 > 0:53:18But although there are many clues as to Basel's historic merchant

0:53:18 > 0:53:20families around here, there didn't seem to be anything

0:53:20 > 0:53:26to indicate who this lady was.

0:53:26 > 0:53:29There were a couple of hints.

0:53:29 > 0:53:32For one thing, the body was riddled with mercury.

0:53:32 > 0:53:36Mercury was a common treatment for syphilis in the 18th century.

0:53:36 > 0:53:39What's more, Basel's historians knew that members of the Bischoff family

0:53:39 > 0:53:43had been buried around here.

0:53:43 > 0:53:46But it wasn't until the 21st century, and DNA testing

0:53:46 > 0:53:48from the mummy's big toe and from a living member

0:53:48 > 0:53:55of the family that the mystery was finally solved.

0:53:55 > 0:54:05Anna Catarina Bischoff, she married a church minister.

0:54:08 > 0:54:10She contracted syphilis, it's believed, while tending

0:54:10 > 0:54:11to patients with the disease.

0:54:11 > 0:54:16Her mercury treatment finally killed her.

0:54:16 > 0:54:18There is one big twist to this story, Anna had

0:54:18 > 0:54:24a daughter, also called Anna, and she married a man.

0:54:24 > 0:54:33And they are the distant relatives of Boris Johnson.

0:54:43 > 0:54:49That ends Outside Source this week. Further coverage from the World

0:54:49 > 0:54:52Economic Forum in Davos, including that speech by Donald Trump online.

0:54:52 > 0:54:57It will be interesting to hear what he says. See you Monday.
