:00:13. > :00:17.Markets around the world soar in response to the bail out of Spain's

:00:17. > :00:21.beleaguered banks. These are live pictures of the former Prime

:00:21. > :00:27.Minister, Gordon Brown, who has told the inquiry into press ethics

:00:27. > :00:31.that changes have to be made to the standards of British journalism.

:00:32. > :00:38.Somalia strives for peace. We're inside the war-torn country to see

:00:38. > :00:44.whether any progress has been made. Welcome to BBC World News. Also in

:00:44. > :00:52.this programme; day 34 in the trail of Anders Breivik. Norway's top

:00:52. > :01:02.psychiatrist appears as a witness. And the musical Once scopes not one,

:01:02. > :01:11.

:01:11. > :01:15.but eight of the theatre world's Stock Markets in Europe have

:01:15. > :01:20.responded positively to the bail out of Spain's beleaguered banks

:01:20. > :01:24.which was agreed at the weekend. The leading Asian markets were up

:01:24. > :01:29.after Spain become the fourth eurozone country to be offered a

:01:29. > :01:36.rescue deal. Mariano Rajoy said the loan package, which could be worth

:01:36. > :01:41.up to 100 billion euro will secure the future of the single currency.

:01:42. > :01:50.After the long downward slide, Spanish stocks rose, when a new

:01:50. > :01:58.week of trading began. A leap of 5%. Shares in Bankia, which requested

:01:58. > :02:03.19 billion in loans rose by 16%. Increasing confidence by investors

:02:03. > :02:08.was reflected elsewhere in Europe. Frankfurt's DAX index rallying by

:02:08. > :02:12.around 2% in the opening dealing. The sort of rise seen on other

:02:12. > :02:17.European Stock Markets. The trend had been heralded in Asia, where

:02:17. > :02:22.the markets had been anxious about Spain's financial position and the

:02:22. > :02:28.impact on the wider eurozone. The euro was rising on the global

:02:28. > :02:34.markets. So, the weekend deal under which eurozone ministers agreed to

:02:34. > :02:40.lend Spain up to 100 billion euros, bringing relief for now. How far

:02:40. > :02:50.are these rescues addressing the underlying problems? Greece had two

:02:50. > :03:05.

:03:05. > :03:10.bail outs of 110 billion and 130 This doesn't solve the underlying

:03:10. > :03:16.problem rather than the symptom of the euro itself. Still back to the

:03:16. > :03:21.euro issue. How do you get that currency to operate properly? That

:03:21. > :03:27.means a better road map for better control. All of this remaining then

:03:27. > :03:31.a huge challenge for policy makers. The stability of individual

:03:31. > :03:34.economies crucial. Global markets please that Spain has been thrown a

:03:34. > :03:37.lifeline, but still a question market over whether Greece stays

:03:37. > :03:46.within the euro, with fresh elections there. The crisis is by

:03:46. > :03:50.no means over. Jamie is here. Market reaction -

:03:50. > :03:56.predictable? Predictable. Very positive. The IMF was talking last

:03:56. > :04:06.week about 40 billion euros being needed to recapitalise the banks.

:04:06. > :04:10.That number is enormously reassuring for markets.

:04:10. > :04:14.A shock. However, the way in which the money will be used, whether

:04:14. > :04:22.there'll be any conditions attached. For instance the Irish who have got

:04:22. > :04:25.a similar bail out, not long ago, in order to, well not recapitalise

:04:25. > :04:29.their banks, but put it into Governments, they had huge numbers

:04:29. > :04:33.of strings attached. Now there is a good chance they will turn around

:04:33. > :04:37.and say, well, Spain seems to have managed with to get this money

:04:37. > :04:42.without any conditions and may start to renegotiate that. That's

:04:42. > :04:47.all to find out in the future. Olly Burrows is an list with Rabobank.

:04:47. > :04:50.He explained how this bail out differs. What you have to remember

:04:50. > :04:54.is, as the Spanish Government are keen to stress, is this is a bail

:04:54. > :04:59.out of the Spanish banking system, not a bail out of Spain. This is

:04:59. > :05:05.why it's taken so long to reach this agreement, that the funds will

:05:05. > :05:09.be channelled directly to a fund which will provide the - will lend

:05:09. > :05:13.to the Spanish banks. It's not to prop up the Spanish Government

:05:13. > :05:17.itself. Now, yes, the situation in Ireland, Greece and Portugal is

:05:17. > :05:21.different. They will no doubt want to be treated equally. We don't

:05:21. > :05:25.have any further details of that yet. As to the sort of concessions,

:05:25. > :05:31.there are many problems potentially there as to who will have to

:05:31. > :05:36.effectively pay for this. Will it be private holders of bonds, for

:05:37. > :05:42.example? Even depositors or the taxpayers? Your view, how much of a

:05:42. > :05:51.solution have we reached with this 100 billion. Bearing in mind the

:05:51. > :05:54.crisis is over we heard that Italian GDP has taken a dive

:05:54. > :05:58.downwards. We are cautiously optimistic. This is a step in the

:05:58. > :06:03.right direction. It's as though the patient has started taking medicine.

:06:03. > :06:07.This is just a treatment for the moment, certainly not the cure. The

:06:07. > :06:12.sovereign crisis is very much a systemic crisis, not a fundamental

:06:12. > :06:17.one. Fixing parts, ie the solvency of the Spanish banks will not solve

:06:17. > :06:25.the sovereign debt crisis, so contagion may spread or infect

:06:25. > :06:30.other areas and continue to weigh on the whole periphery states in

:06:30. > :06:34.the eurozone. Europe's airlines will make a combined loss of $1.1

:06:34. > :06:38.billion this year. This is from the International Air Transport

:06:38. > :06:42.Association. It is double the scale it forecast, only back in March.

:06:42. > :06:46.IATA says the passenger numbers are likely to be hit hard by the

:06:46. > :06:52.developing crisis in the eurozone. Carriers elsewhere in the world

:06:52. > :07:01.could see profits picking up. For the past year, with the price of

:07:01. > :07:07.Brent crude tick --, many of the airlines have spun into loss.

:07:07. > :07:13.Spanish was forced out of business. Although the price of crude has

:07:13. > :07:17.fallen 20% since spring, IATA predicts the loss will top $1

:07:17. > :07:22.billion this year. Recession in Spain and Britain hits passenger

:07:22. > :07:27.numbers. There still remains over capacity in the short-haul market.

:07:27. > :07:30.A number of bigger players are losing money. Air France is

:07:30. > :07:35.undergoing restructuring at the moment. Until the European

:07:35. > :07:40.economies pick up, obviously the airlines exposed will continue to

:07:40. > :07:44.find that business is tough. Airlines like Ryanair have put

:07:44. > :07:49.dozens of their planes out of service to match the supply in

:07:49. > :07:54.Europe to the demand. There is cut- throat competition for passengers.

:07:54. > :07:58.That means airlines will be under pressure to bring down fares.

:07:58. > :08:03.Despite what people might say about being slow to reduce prices and so

:08:03. > :08:08.on it will work its way through. People are desperate for finding

:08:08. > :08:13.ways to keep the cabins full. If the fuel price goes down, there is

:08:13. > :08:16.a degree to which they will pass that on straight away.

:08:16. > :08:21.Airlines tend to buy their fuel in advance to hedge against rising

:08:21. > :08:25.prices. That means that most will have all they need for the rest of

:08:25. > :08:28.this year. Cheaper fuel that they are buying now is for delivery at

:08:29. > :08:35.the start of next year. That means it could be several months before

:08:35. > :08:40.the lower costs and the lower fares start to leak through. There is

:08:40. > :08:43.always the strong possibility that crude oil briess will soar again.

:08:43. > :08:47.-- prices will soar again. That's the business news. More later.

:08:47. > :08:52.Thank you very much. The former British Prime Minister, Gordon

:08:52. > :08:56.Brown, has been giving evidence today at the on going Leveson

:08:56. > :09:00.Inquiry into press standards. Some big names in British politics are

:09:00. > :09:03.appearing today. In a few hours we will hear from George Osborne, the

:09:03. > :09:07.current Prime Minister, David Cameron and his deputy Nick Clegg,

:09:07. > :09:12.are due to appear in the next few days. This morning, Gordon Brown

:09:12. > :09:17.has told the inquiry that neither he nor his wife gave implicit or

:09:17. > :09:22.explicit permission for the Sun to publish a stoish about their son

:09:22. > :09:27.having cystic fibrosis. The Sun said the Browns indicated their

:09:27. > :09:34.consent to the story, which was published in 2006. Manufacture

:09:34. > :09:40.Brown said -- Mr Brown said that was not true. There was no question

:09:40. > :09:45.of implicit or expolice tick permission. I ask you if any mother

:09:45. > :09:50.or father was presented with a choice as to whether a four-month-

:09:50. > :09:53.old son's medical condition, your child's medical condition should be

:09:53. > :09:56.broadcast on the front-page of a tabloid newspaper and you video a

:09:56. > :10:01.choice in this matter, I don't think -- and you have a choice in

:10:01. > :10:05.this matter, I don't think there's any parent that would make the

:10:06. > :10:08.choice to give permission for that to happen. There was no question of

:10:08. > :10:12.permission. Gordon Brown, the former British Prime Minister, of

:10:12. > :10:16.course. Let's go to central London and our correspondent has been

:10:16. > :10:20.listening in this morning. He looked quite pained there talking

:10:20. > :10:25.about his family, quite understandably, quite emotional.

:10:25. > :10:30.Yet still quite a lot to say about the whole Murdoch empire and how it

:10:30. > :10:36.operated? That is right. He's been denying, for example, that he ever

:10:36. > :10:40.got upset when Rupert Murdoch's Sun switched allegiance from the Labour

:10:40. > :10:45.Party to the Conservative Party. He's denied a story that Rupert

:10:45. > :10:49.Murdoch recounted during his evidence, that Mr Brown rang him up,

:10:49. > :10:53.ranting down the phone in an unbalanced state of mind. Gordon

:10:53. > :10:57.Brown has been saying that was not true. He would never have

:10:57. > :11:03.complained directly to them and indeed he said he didn't really

:11:03. > :11:06.care about Rupert Murdoch's support. He says, if I'd really cared about

:11:06. > :11:10.what Rupert Murdoch had thought on policy issues, well we would have

:11:10. > :11:16.ended up leaving the European Union and he joked we would have probably

:11:16. > :11:22.ended up at war with France and Germany. Of course his wife

:11:22. > :11:26.famously hosted a pyjama party at Chequers as a matter of discussion.

:11:26. > :11:31.Also he has been talking about Afghanistan policy and about

:11:31. > :11:36.general media policy in this country. That's right. He's annoyed

:11:36. > :11:41.about Afghanistan. He believes that the Sun's coverage of the war in

:11:41. > :11:44.Afghanistan basically became very personalised and it was all

:11:44. > :11:47.directed against him and the suggestion in the main news

:11:47. > :11:52.coverage of the newspaper that was he didn't care. He gave the pam

:11:52. > :11:56.approximate of how, at a service of remembrance, he bowed his head in

:11:56. > :12:01.prayer. He said he was very angry the next day when he woke up to

:12:01. > :12:06.discover that the Sun newspaper had suggested he had fallen asleep

:12:06. > :12:10.during that service of remembrance. So, clearly Mr Brown is still very

:12:10. > :12:16.angry about some of the coverage he got. Though, it is worth pointing

:12:16. > :12:20.out that both he and Rupert Murdoch did actually initially get on. They

:12:20. > :12:25.are both from Scottish families. Originally they seemed to respect

:12:25. > :12:30.each other. OK, thank you very much. You are watching BBC World News.

:12:31. > :12:36.Still to come: Inside one of the world's most dangerous countries as

:12:36. > :12:42.Somalia strives for peace, with a special report on how it's

:12:42. > :12:51.fathering now. And nap poll -- how it's faring now. And Napoleon in

:12:51. > :13:01.his own words. Police in chilli have used water

:13:01. > :13:05.

:13:05. > :13:09.can -- in Chile have used a water General Pinochet's supporters have

:13:09. > :13:15.kept a low profile in recent years. This was the time they came out to

:13:15. > :13:19.make their voices heard. More than 1,000 of them, at the screening of

:13:19. > :13:26.a new documentary, which strives to show the former dictator in a

:13:26. > :13:30.positive light. Among the lights, the general's grandson.

:13:30. > :13:33.TRANSLATION: This is not just a homage to my grandfather. It is to

:13:33. > :13:37.the military junta. It was the labour of many people. My

:13:37. > :13:45.grandfather was the leader of this Government. I insist it wasn't just

:13:45. > :13:50.his work. For some people the very name

:13:50. > :13:54."Pinochet" is enough to turn their stomachs. His forces killed more

:13:54. > :13:58.than 3,000 of his political opponents. Many more were tortured

:13:58. > :14:01.and driven into exile. Thousands of people turned up to

:14:01. > :14:06.protest against the homage. The police kept them well away from the

:14:06. > :14:11.theatre. That was when tempers frayed. Some

:14:11. > :14:15.of these scenes were reminiscent of Chile in the 1980s, when the

:14:15. > :14:21.general was still very much in charge. They are violaters of human

:14:21. > :14:25.rights. Today, this is the only response they have, to suppress us,

:14:25. > :14:32.to use violence against us, to mistreat us and betray their

:14:32. > :14:39.country. They, those who committed genocide are inside the theatre.

:14:39. > :14:43.Arrests, injuries and extensive damage. The Mayor of Santiago

:14:43. > :14:47.described this as a nightmare day for the city. Nearly 40 years have

:14:47. > :14:53.passed since the general came to power and five years since he died.

:14:53. > :14:59.These protests and the strength of feeling here show how a divisive

:14:59. > :15:05.figure he still is in Chile. The new President of Serbia will be

:15:05. > :15:15.inaugurated today. Most of the regional leaders are boycotting the

:15:15. > :15:18.

:15:18. > :15:26.They are protesting against the remarks about the conflict in the

:15:26. > :15:30.Balkans. This is BBC World News.

:15:30. > :15:34.The headlines: Markets around the world rise

:15:35. > :15:38.sharply in response to the bail out of Spain's beleaguered banks.

:15:38. > :15:45.These are the live pictures of the former Prime Minister, Gordon Brown,

:15:45. > :15:50.being questioned there by Robert Jay into the inquiry into press

:15:50. > :15:56.ethics that changes be made into the standards of journalism. Gordon

:15:56. > :16:00.Brown, giving evidence today. Now, a number of opposition

:16:00. > :16:03.activists in Russia have had their homes searched by the police on the

:16:03. > :16:10.eve of a antigovernment rally to be held. Detectives said that the

:16:10. > :16:14.raids were part of an investigation into violence into street protests.

:16:14. > :16:20.Our correspondent in Moscow is Steve Rosenberg. How many people

:16:20. > :16:25.are being raided there? The police say that they are searching ten

:16:25. > :16:33.locations around Moscow today. Some of the country's most prominent

:16:33. > :16:39.antigovernment activists have had their homes searched.

:16:39. > :16:43.We went to one of their homes today. There were armed guards outside

:16:43. > :16:46.with Kalashnikovs and pist oils, not letting the journalists in,

:16:46. > :16:51.certainly, and checking the passports of residents going into

:16:51. > :16:57.the building. What are they looking for? Well, we know that the police

:16:57. > :17:01.have taken computer equipment and other items from the flat and the

:17:01. > :17:06.search there continues. The authorities say this is part of an

:17:06. > :17:09.investigation that has been continuing into the issue of

:17:09. > :17:14.violence which broke out into an antigovernment protest in the last

:17:14. > :17:19.month, but opposition say it is an attempt to stifle freedom of speech

:17:19. > :17:25.and to crack down on Vladimir Putin's opponents before tomorrow's

:17:25. > :17:30.antigovernment protest, that is expected to be large in Moscow.

:17:30. > :17:38.In Norway, the country's most senior forensic psychiatrists have

:17:38. > :17:42.been appeared at the trial of Anders Behring Breivik.

:17:42. > :17:48.He 4 changed his mind with regards to the well-being of Anders Behring

:17:48. > :17:52.Breivik. Per Anders Johansen is a journalist

:17:52. > :17:59.in Norway's biggest newspaper. He is at the trial in Oslo.

:17:59. > :18:02.Here in Oslo, everything is about the psyche strist. The big --

:18:02. > :18:08.psychiatrist, the big question is that Anders Behring Breivik is fit

:18:08. > :18:14.to go to jail or he has a personal disorder. Today we heard the

:18:14. > :18:23.witnesses from the people who had been following him inside prison,

:18:23. > :18:28.where they have been studying him, to find out if there are signs of

:18:28. > :18:33.schizophrenia or paranoia or whether it is a personal disorder.

:18:33. > :18:38.Have you heard why this eminent psychiatrist has changed his view

:18:38. > :18:43.on the question as to whether Anders Behring Breivik is insane or

:18:43. > :18:47.not Each time there is is a new psychiatrist in the court, there is

:18:47. > :18:55.a new explanation. Einar Kringlen was saying early saying that he was

:18:55. > :18:59.sure that the first report was true. That Anders Behring Breivik was a

:18:59. > :19:03.schizophrenic, but after following the days in court he has changed

:19:03. > :19:09.his mind. He based it on what he saw in the way that Anders Behring

:19:09. > :19:15.Breivik was behaving in court. Now he says there is no doubt that he

:19:15. > :19:23.is not psychotic. That he is a person with a personal disorder.

:19:23. > :19:29.And if the court is forming instruction, he should be sentenced

:19:29. > :19:32.to jail, but everything is still upside down in the case. It is the

:19:32. > :19:39.police all the time asking questions which seem to reflect

:19:39. > :19:44.that the police and the prosecutors are convinced that Anders Behring

:19:44. > :19:47.Breivik is insane and cannot be sentenced to prison.

:19:47. > :19:51.The latest from the Anders Behring Breivik trial.

:19:51. > :19:55.The new President of Syria's opposition National Council is

:19:55. > :19:58.urging people in the country to defect from the current regime.

:19:58. > :20:03.There have been clashes with the rebels and the government troops

:20:03. > :20:07.with up to 35 people being reported to have been killed in Homs. Our

:20:07. > :20:13.correspondent is in Homs. He told me more of what is going on there.

:20:13. > :20:17.I have been standings on the roof of the UN headquarters in Homs,

:20:17. > :20:22.watching the mortars landing on the city at the rate of one every

:20:23. > :20:27.couple of minutes. There is much smoke hanging over the town. The

:20:27. > :20:32.blasts are concentrated on one area. It has been going on regularly.

:20:33. > :20:37.Before then there was a sound of gunfire and the occasional mortar

:20:37. > :20:41.round, but in the last half an hour it has been intense. Paul,

:20:41. > :20:44.listening to your reports from the recent days it is clear that the

:20:44. > :20:49.situation is becoming increase liing complex and difficult in

:20:49. > :20:54.Syria? Yes, it is. I think what is happening in Homs

:20:54. > :20:59.is a military operation. I have been told by someone that the

:20:59. > :21:04.Syrians are using unmanned drones. You can hear the buzz in the air to

:21:04. > :21:08.search for targets and then they are firing mortar rounds in. This

:21:08. > :21:13.is very much a military style operation. It tends to be largely

:21:13. > :21:17.where the military has withdrawn to put down other flare-ups, that the

:21:17. > :21:21.militias, that the Government are accused of creating of taking the

:21:21. > :21:25.law into their hands, that is where we have seen the sectarian murders

:21:26. > :21:31.to emerge. After more than two decades of

:21:31. > :21:37.lawlessness and turmoil, Somalia is close to forming a new government.

:21:37. > :21:41.African Union troops have fought hard to restore normality to the

:21:41. > :21:43.country. We have been speaking to the Somali

:21:43. > :21:48.Prime Minister, Abdiweli Mohamed Ali.

:21:48. > :21:56.We must be vigilant that those involved in the instability of

:21:56. > :22:02.Somalia should be apprehended. We have had 20 years of lawlessness,

:22:02. > :22:08.chaos, instability, it is enough for Somalia, the people have

:22:08. > :22:13.decided no more to this violence, no to more instability and no more

:22:13. > :22:17.to lawlessness. Some of these warlords, are now

:22:17. > :22:24.engaged in the political process. Are you confident that they have

:22:24. > :22:28.finished with with their own ways? No. But if we have a transparent

:22:28. > :22:31.and fair system, I am sure that they will not come back. They have

:22:32. > :22:35.had their time. They have squandered it.

:22:35. > :22:39.In Somalia, it is where it is today because of people like that, so
