Hello. This is BBC World News. Our top stories... Over 100,000 | :00:11. | :00:14. | |
anti-government protestors surround government house in Bangkok, despite | :00:15. | :00:17. | |
the Thai Prime Minister's offer of new elections. In Ukraine's capital, | :00:18. | :00:20. | |
Kiev, riot police have been deployed as the government demands protestors | :00:21. | :00:23. | |
disperse after blocking government buildings. North Korea confirms a | :00:24. | :00:29. | |
powerful uncle of president Kim Jong-un has been dismissed. He is | :00:30. | :00:35. | |
hauled out of a party meeting and accused of committing criminal acts. | :00:36. | :00:41. | |
South Africa pays tribute to Nelson Mandela, as world leaders prepare | :00:42. | :00:42. | |
for tomorrow's memorial service. Protesters in Thailand have | :00:43. | :01:02. | |
surrounded Government House in Bangkok as they continue to rally | :01:03. | :01:06. | |
against the government. The Prime Minister, Yingluck Shinawatra, has | :01:07. | :01:09. | |
dissolved parliament, to help bring an end to the country's political | :01:10. | :01:13. | |
crisis. A government spokesman says general elections will be held on | :01:14. | :01:19. | |
second February. Tens of thousands of demonstrators are on the streets | :01:20. | :01:23. | |
of the capital, vowing to continue their fight. They say Ms Yingluck's | :01:24. | :01:28. | |
government is controlled by her brother, ousted leader Thaksin | :01:29. | :01:33. | |
Shinawatra. The BBC's Jonathan Head sent this report from one of the | :01:34. | :01:43. | |
rallies in Bangkok. The protest leaders called for the largest | :01:44. | :01:45. | |
possible turnout today show disapproval of the government, in | :01:46. | :01:52. | |
the hope that it would make an impact. By and large, it seems to | :01:53. | :01:57. | |
have succeeded. They are now heading off towards the same targets they | :01:58. | :02:00. | |
were aiming for last week, the Prime Minister 's office, a symbolic | :02:01. | :02:04. | |
capture for them, if they can get in there. Question is, what would that | :02:05. | :02:09. | |
achieve? They have already managed to get in once. But more than that, | :02:10. | :02:14. | |
the Prime Minister has now called for an election. She is dissolving | :02:15. | :02:18. | |
parliament. A lot of people here have been calling for that. Others | :02:19. | :02:22. | |
say that will not enough. We do not know yet what the Prime Minister has | :02:23. | :02:26. | |
decided today, and whether it will be enough to take some of the sting | :02:27. | :02:31. | |
out of this movement, but it is a dramatic development. We want her | :02:32. | :02:40. | |
and her family to go out of our country. That is what we want. So, | :02:41. | :02:45. | |
an election is not enough? An election is one path, because if | :02:46. | :02:51. | |
there is another election, and she and her family is still here in the | :02:52. | :02:58. | |
country, she will be behind everything, her family will be | :02:59. | :03:03. | |
behind everything. We are now walking towards central Bangkok and | :03:04. | :03:07. | |
it is where all of these protesters are expected to gather and put on | :03:08. | :03:11. | |
this tremendous show of force. They have been trying to get together, to | :03:12. | :03:14. | |
make a difference. The problem is, what do they do now, with nearly two | :03:15. | :03:19. | |
months until the general election is due to be held? They have actually | :03:20. | :03:25. | |
succeeded in part of what they wanted, they have persuaded the | :03:26. | :03:28. | |
government to Buckler. And so I think the mood is a bit confused at | :03:29. | :03:32. | |
the moment. This has all been very impressive, but they know that when | :03:33. | :03:38. | |
it comes down to an election, the chances are, the Prime Minister's | :03:39. | :03:44. | |
party will still win. It has won the last five elections. The people know | :03:45. | :03:49. | |
that the things they complain about, the corruption, the weakness | :03:50. | :03:52. | |
of the Parliamentary system, these have not yet been addressed. I | :03:53. | :03:58. | |
suspect even after the Prime Minister's dramatic this vision | :03:59. | :04:01. | |
today, these will not be the last protests that we see. -- dramatic | :04:02. | :04:03. | |
decision. Riot police have moved into the | :04:04. | :04:11. | |
centre of the Ukrainan capital, Kiev, where protesters have been | :04:12. | :04:13. | |
occupying a city administration building and a central square. | :04:14. | :04:16. | |
They're calling for greater ties with Europe instead of Russia. And | :04:17. | :04:25. | |
to show their frustration, demonstrators have pulled down a | :04:26. | :04:28. | |
statue of the communist leader Vladimir Lenin. | :04:29. | :04:33. | |
They're angry about President Yanukovych's decision to reject a | :04:34. | :04:39. | |
trade deal with the EU. We can speak now with the BBC's global news | :04:40. | :04:46. | |
editor. The intention of the Interior Ministry troops is to | :04:47. | :04:49. | |
disperse the crowds, to free the government buildings. However, | :04:50. | :04:53. | |
protesters say they will defend their square, they will defend their | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
right to peaceful protest. How peaceful it will be is not clear. It | :04:58. | :05:03. | |
is a very tense situation. There are lots of bits of information coming | :05:04. | :05:05. | |
in about tube station being closed in the area, troops have been | :05:06. | :05:10. | |
circling. This is a fairly large space, and they are encircling it | :05:11. | :05:16. | |
and would in all sorts of barricades to counter the protesters. There is | :05:17. | :05:21. | |
also talk about European Commission and European Union ambassadors being | :05:22. | :05:24. | |
called to the square. The media are also there. Baroness Ashton is | :05:25. | :05:29. | |
travelling tomorrow. And we have just seen pictures of the protesters | :05:30. | :05:32. | |
pulling down, toppling a statue of Lenin. How significant is that? I | :05:33. | :05:40. | |
think it was the last statue of Lenin in Kiev. Quite a few were | :05:41. | :05:45. | |
toppled 20 years ago, when Ukraine regained its independence. It is | :05:46. | :05:49. | |
symbol to some, and it is very affect on to others. Ukraine is | :05:50. | :05:55. | |
divided. Any in Eastern Ukraine hold the past dear. The Communist Party | :05:56. | :06:00. | |
is currently very supportive of the commonest past, and Lenin. However, | :06:01. | :06:05. | |
the statue was pulled down by some of the nationalist groups. Some of | :06:06. | :06:10. | |
the leaders of the protest were very unhappy about it, because it | :06:11. | :06:14. | |
irritates and offends a lot of people, and does not present a | :06:15. | :06:19. | |
constructive programme for dialogue, or some kind of way out of | :06:20. | :06:26. | |
this situation. The protest started over President Yanukovych' refusal | :06:27. | :06:29. | |
to sign the treaty with the EU, and instead, looking closer to Moscow. | :06:30. | :06:43. | |
So what happens next? It looks like he's going to sign a raft of various | :06:44. | :06:48. | |
agreements with Russia. We do not know exactly the details of those, | :06:49. | :06:52. | |
but certainly, the government is not giving in. Does there is no dialogue | :06:53. | :06:57. | |
between the two sides, it is very difficult to see how it can be | :06:58. | :07:02. | |
resolved positively. I think the two sides are sticking to their | :07:03. | :07:05. | |
positions, and perhaps the European Union will be able to help, perhaps | :07:06. | :07:10. | |
some high-ranking Americans travelling to Kiev will be able to | :07:11. | :07:14. | |
help. Internally, it is a very, very difficult situation. Thank you very | :07:15. | :07:15. | |
much. Pictures showing North Korea's | :07:16. | :07:25. | |
second-most powerful man being forcibly removed from a party | :07:26. | :07:29. | |
meeting have been aired on State TV. Jang Song-thaek is the uncle of | :07:30. | :07:32. | |
North Korea's leader Kim Jong-un, and had been given the job of | :07:33. | :07:36. | |
guiding and mentoring the young leader as he assumed power two years | :07:37. | :07:39. | |
ago. The BBC's Lucy Williamson reports from Seoul on what led to | :07:40. | :07:41. | |
his dismissal. Money, sex and power are the stuff | :07:42. | :07:54. | |
of headlines in North Korea, just like anywhere else. Or as the state | :07:55. | :08:00. | |
media put it today, corruption, disloyalty and capitalist living. | :08:01. | :08:08. | |
Jang Song Taek, stripped of all of his positions, and publicly pulled | :08:09. | :08:11. | |
out of a party meeting, under arrest. It is the biggest political | :08:12. | :08:15. | |
earthquake in North Korea since his nephew assumed power. Jang Song Taek | :08:16. | :08:22. | |
was Kim Jong Un's Guardian, mental and uncle. Too many, he was the | :08:23. | :08:27. | |
power behind the throne. Perhaps too powerful, or maybe too popular. Few | :08:28. | :08:35. | |
of the elder statesman who walked beside Kim Jong Un's coffin have | :08:36. | :08:39. | |
survived two years of his son's rule. This latest purge is | :08:40. | :08:45. | |
especially startling. Jang Song Taek has already been edited out of | :08:46. | :08:51. | |
official videos. Whether this purge signals personal or political | :08:52. | :08:55. | |
differences, the worry here in South Korea is that Pyongyang could | :08:56. | :08:59. | |
distract attention with military action. The defence Ministry has | :09:00. | :09:03. | |
already warned its troop to be on high alert, with Pyongyang's old | :09:04. | :09:09. | |
guard fading, the game of predicting the regime is getting harder. | :09:10. | :09:14. | |
Step-by-step, Kim Jong Un has demonstrated his hold on power, but | :09:15. | :09:18. | |
also his fear of rivals. If his uncle was truly a threat, could his | :09:19. | :09:21. | |
removal be an even bigger one? Around 60 world leaders will take | :09:22. | :09:31. | |
part in the memorial service or state funeral of Nelson Mandela. At | :09:32. | :09:47. | |
funeral is taking place in the Eastern take, on Sunday the 15th. | :09:48. | :09:52. | |
Our correspondent Mike Wooldridge is in Johannesburg. I believe that | :09:53. | :10:01. | |
Parliament is having a special sitting today? It is indeed, | :10:02. | :10:09. | |
starting shortly, an opportunity for all MPs to publicly reflect on how | :10:10. | :10:13. | |
they see the passing of Nelson Mandela, what he stood for and so | :10:14. | :10:24. | |
on. So, now, it is Parliament's turn. There will be a huge national | :10:25. | :10:37. | |
memorial service in the stadium on the outs but of Johannesburg | :10:38. | :10:44. | |
tomorrow, -- on the outskirts, where Nelson Mandela made his last public | :10:45. | :10:47. | |
appearance, at the end of the 2010 World Cup. And the state funeral | :10:48. | :10:51. | |
will take place in Qunu in the Eastern Cape, but nonetheless, there | :10:52. | :10:56. | |
will still be many important world leaders from around the world at | :10:57. | :11:02. | |
that? I think that is the case. So much of this is just unfolding, the | :11:03. | :11:06. | |
numbers of people who actually will be coming, leaders who will be | :11:07. | :11:11. | |
coming, which events they will go to, the programmes and so on. But | :11:12. | :11:15. | |
that is the impression at the moment, but it is tomorrow's | :11:16. | :11:21. | |
national mourning ceremony which will be the largest in terms of the | :11:22. | :11:24. | |
attendance of foreign dignitaries will stop they are trying to strike | :11:25. | :11:28. | |
this note throughout, a mixture of expressions of grief, but also of | :11:29. | :11:33. | |
celebration, much of it in a very African style, trying to give an | :11:34. | :11:38. | |
identity to it which is faithful to Nelson Mandela and all he stood for. | :11:39. | :11:42. | |
The same will be true, perhaps even more so, in the Eastern Cape, in | :11:43. | :11:46. | |
Qunu, for the funeral and the burial, perhaps many more | :11:47. | :11:51. | |
traditional parts to that ceremony. And guarding all of this, making | :11:52. | :11:56. | |
sure that it passes off smoothly, thousands of police, and also 11,000 | :11:57. | :12:04. | |
troops, we are told. It is a huge logistical and organisational | :12:05. | :12:07. | |
challenge, the event in the stadium at soccer city. | :12:08. | :12:19. | |
We will give you complete coverage of all the events in South Africa. | :12:20. | :12:28. | |
Eight US web giants, including Google, Microsoft and Facebook have | :12:29. | :12:30. | |
launched a campaign for new rules on how governments collect user | :12:31. | :12:33. | |
information. In an open letter to President Obama they're calling for | :12:34. | :12:36. | |
a change of law to stop the large-scale surveillance activities | :12:37. | :12:39. | |
exposed by the former intelligence worker, Edward Snowden. With me in | :12:40. | :12:45. | |
the studio is Dan Simmons, a reporter from our technology | :12:46. | :12:53. | |
programme Click. You have been following this story, why is silicon | :12:54. | :12:55. | |
valley putting on such a united front to challenge Washington? It | :12:56. | :13:02. | |
seems all these eight companies have been working with the United States | :13:03. | :13:06. | |
government in providing them the information they requested. Now it | :13:07. | :13:11. | |
seems they are taking a stand. They think things have tipped too far in | :13:12. | :13:17. | |
favour of the government as far as privacy is concerned. They want to | :13:18. | :13:21. | |
protect the privacy of their users more closely. That is to do with | :13:22. | :13:28. | |
reputation. Who will use a service that gives away all their private | :13:29. | :13:33. | |
details to the US government. The concern in silicon valley is US | :13:34. | :13:36. | |
companies will be frozen out in the long term of the technology market | :13:37. | :13:44. | |
in all the areas the US is so dominant in, if these companies have | :13:45. | :13:48. | |
to give so much information in a clandestinely fashion. So it is bad | :13:49. | :13:54. | |
for business? Yes it is. What reception are they likely to get | :13:55. | :13:58. | |
from Washington? Washington want the right to protect their citizens and | :13:59. | :14:04. | |
make sure they can have an effective net, if you like, to capture | :14:05. | :14:09. | |
potential terrorists or anything wanted in their borders, Homeland | :14:10. | :14:15. | |
Security, if you like. These companies are saying it has gone too | :14:16. | :14:18. | |
far and it will affect our reputation, not only in the United | :14:19. | :14:23. | |
States, but abroad as well. Silicon valley matters doesn't it? It is | :14:24. | :14:28. | |
part of the US industrial offering? It is huge. They control a lot of | :14:29. | :14:34. | |
how the web is organised and controlled, much to the annoyance of | :14:35. | :14:39. | |
very many other countries around the world. They say it is because they | :14:40. | :14:45. | |
have the major players. What these companies are saying is, it is not | :14:46. | :14:49. | |
we don't want to give information that is crucial to the government, | :14:50. | :14:55. | |
they are happy to abide by the law and give the information requested. | :14:56. | :14:59. | |
But they have made a couple of requests, and one is they are | :15:00. | :15:05. | |
allowed to tell the world what the US government wants from them and | :15:06. | :15:08. | |
what they have had to give to the US government. And also, let's write | :15:09. | :15:13. | |
down as to what you are allowed to ask for. At the moment they are | :15:14. | :15:17. | |
getting a lot of information that users are not aware they are passing | :15:18. | :15:20. | |
on to the government. Stay with us on BBC World News, | :15:21. | :15:28. | |
still to come: Thank you very much. It is a month since typhoon Diane | :15:29. | :15:32. | |
and we go back to the Philippines to see how the survivors are managing | :15:33. | :15:41. | |
to rebuild their lives. 27 people have been arrested in | :15:42. | :15:44. | |
Singapore after clashes between rioters and police in a commercial | :15:45. | :15:47. | |
district known as Little India. About 400 people took to the | :15:48. | :15:54. | |
streets, as Ashleigh Neem reports. News of the riot came as no surprise | :15:55. | :16:01. | |
for this man. The 39-year-old father of two was at home with his family | :16:02. | :16:05. | |
when he heard a commotion out side. He told me he was the first person | :16:06. | :16:12. | |
to call the police. And this is why. This is the first riot in Singapore | :16:13. | :16:19. | |
in four decades. All sparked by the death of an Indian national who was | :16:20. | :16:25. | |
knocked down by a bus. He was hammering with his bare hands on the | :16:26. | :16:31. | |
coach itself. There was a lot of noise, a lot of cheering. A lot of | :16:32. | :16:37. | |
screaming also and they were throwing bottles on the roadside. | :16:38. | :16:41. | |
This shop owner had to close her shop when the violence broke out. | :16:42. | :16:47. | |
She and her family hid inside, trapped with the fear the rioters | :16:48. | :16:53. | |
could break in. They were breaking cars and they were attacking the | :16:54. | :17:00. | |
police vehicles. Last night, all of this produce was scattered on the | :17:01. | :17:04. | |
ground outside. The owners say rioters use these vegetables as | :17:05. | :17:09. | |
weapons to push back the police. They believe they could have lost up | :17:10. | :17:14. | |
to $15,000 in lost produce and sales. But it is not just the | :17:15. | :17:19. | |
economic impact, they fear there could be long-term issues with the | :17:20. | :17:24. | |
Indian communities. I don't want to cast this as foreign worker versus | :17:25. | :17:32. | |
our situation. Or try and overlay a racial tone to it, because I don't | :17:33. | :17:38. | |
believe that is the case. The Minister believes the rioters anger | :17:39. | :17:46. | |
was fuelled by alcohol. A proposal to set up alcohol free zones has | :17:47. | :17:50. | |
been on the table for some time, but he wants them to be made even | :17:51. | :17:56. | |
tougher. Others say Singapore's South Asian workers must be given | :17:57. | :18:01. | |
fairer terms and better pay. This they say will go a long way to | :18:02. | :18:04. | |
removing tensions with each could threaten Singapore's reputation as a | :18:05. | :18:19. | |
safe and stable society. This is BBC World News. We are just | :18:20. | :18:25. | |
getting some news from the Ukraine that the president has agreed to | :18:26. | :18:31. | |
hold talks with three X residents, in order to defuse the stand-offs | :18:32. | :18:38. | |
amid the mass protests. We have been reporting to you this morning that | :18:39. | :18:43. | |
riot police have been sent into Independence Square. So the | :18:44. | :18:50. | |
president has agreed to talks. We will renew more on that as we get | :18:51. | :18:55. | |
it. In the meantime we can look at a new story. The pressure group | :18:56. | :19:02. | |
Transparency International is encouraging the UK to do more to | :19:03. | :19:05. | |
recover assets from foreign residents living in London who are | :19:06. | :19:10. | |
suspected of corruption overseas. Its report, published on Monday, | :19:11. | :19:14. | |
points to the example of France, where prosecutors have launched | :19:15. | :19:16. | |
investigations into some of the wealthiest individuals living in | :19:17. | :19:20. | |
Paris. They include the ruling families of Gabon and | :19:21. | :19:22. | |
Congo-Brazzaville and the son of the President of Equatorial Guinea. | :19:23. | :19:27. | |
Naomi Grimley went to Paris to find out more. | :19:28. | :19:36. | |
Paris, one of the most sought-after addresses in the capital. But last | :19:37. | :19:42. | |
year, number 42 drew special attention when the police raided | :19:43. | :19:52. | |
it. The owner was the son of the president of Equatorial Guinea and a | :19:53. | :19:57. | |
minister in his father's government. Poverty levels are high and one in | :19:58. | :20:03. | |
eight children die before the age of five. He spent a lot of time in | :20:04. | :20:09. | |
Paris and his lavish residence impress visitors. I had the | :20:10. | :20:15. | |
impression he is the type of individual that likes to show what | :20:16. | :20:24. | |
wealth he has. He would throw money in the disco and pay for everybody. | :20:25. | :20:28. | |
When the police raided number 42, they discovered an Aladdin 's cave. | :20:29. | :20:34. | |
They found fine wines, antique furniture and they took away a | :20:35. | :20:40. | |
statue. It was a highly unusual move for the French authorities, given | :20:41. | :20:45. | |
the owner of all this was a serving minister in a foreign country. These | :20:46. | :20:54. | |
are some of his fast cars being towed away by the police. | :20:55. | :21:00. | |
Anti-poverty campaigners believe he could not have afforded all this on | :21:01. | :21:06. | |
his ministerial salary alone. But his lawyer says it is nonsense and | :21:07. | :21:10. | |
the property was acquired legitimately. He has some cars, yes | :21:11. | :21:17. | |
it is true. He has some houses, yes it is true. The money is coming from | :21:18. | :21:25. | |
his business. Other residents of the wealthiest neighbourhood are under | :21:26. | :21:34. | |
investigation. The ruling families of Gabon and Congo-Brazzaville are | :21:35. | :21:41. | |
under investigation. There is a new wind blowing in the world. What | :21:42. | :21:51. | |
happens in France should happen in London and Brussels as well. It | :21:52. | :21:57. | |
remains to be seen if these cases will lead anywhere, but they are | :21:58. | :22:02. | |
being watched closely by other cities which attract foreign elite, | :22:03. | :22:13. | |
seeking second luxury homes. It has been one month since Typhoon | :22:14. | :22:17. | |
Haiyan devastated much of the central Philippines, killing more | :22:18. | :22:19. | |
than 5,500 people. Many more are missing and bodies are | :22:20. | :22:22. | |
still being found as the survivors struggle to clear away the wreckage | :22:23. | :22:25. | |
of homes and buildings that were destroyed. The scale of the | :22:26. | :22:28. | |
destruction means rebuilding is going to take years, even though | :22:29. | :22:31. | |
many aid agencies are helping with the relief effort. The BBC's Rico | :22:32. | :22:35. | |
Hizon has returned to the city of Tacloban which bore the brunt of the | :22:36. | :22:37. | |
typhoon. Looking for solace during a time of | :22:38. | :22:39. | |
mourning. For the people gathered here for a special Mass at the | :22:40. | :22:43. | |
Parish Church, religion has a crucial part of the recovery | :22:44. | :22:49. | |
process. After losing their family members, homes and livelihoods to | :22:50. | :23:00. | |
Typhoon Haiyan last month. During this Sunday, that has a mass. | :23:01. | :23:13. | |
It is the only one I have now. During the storm, around 250 people | :23:14. | :23:20. | |
hid in this church, hoping for divine intervention. They all | :23:21. | :23:26. | |
survived. But nearly 6000 others did not make it with over 1700 more | :23:27. | :23:33. | |
still missing. And for the traumatised community of Tacloban, | :23:34. | :23:36. | |
the church has become their main refuge. This is where many of the | :23:37. | :23:42. | |
many remaining residents of Tacloban will gather at Christmas. It is the | :23:43. | :23:46. | |
most important religious holiday in the Philippines which has the | :23:47. | :23:50. | |
biggest Catholic community in Asia. But this year it is not about | :23:51. | :23:55. | |
exchanging gifts or having big dinners, but for many survivors | :23:56. | :24:01. | |
here, it is all about faith. The city has slowly started to get back | :24:02. | :24:05. | |
on its feet. There is running water and electricity in some areas. But | :24:06. | :24:10. | |
when night falls, most of the devastated areas look like this, | :24:11. | :24:15. | |
shrouded in black. Parishioners have tried to lift their spirits by | :24:16. | :24:20. | |
hanging lanterns. They say it helps to give hope in times of darkness. | :24:21. | :24:31. | |
Reports of Indonesia are reporting that ten people have died after a | :24:32. | :24:39. | |
commuter train hit a fuel tanker. A witness has been speaking to the BBC | :24:40. | :24:44. | |
and they said the train was full of passengers and loud explosions were | :24:45. | :24:47. | |
heard. Most of the passengers were women. | :24:48. | :24:53. | |
As the South African Parliament prepares to pay tribute to Nelson | :24:54. | :24:58. | |
Mandela, the BBC has spoken to the former president's daughter. She has | :24:59. | :25:03. | |
been telling us about her father's elastase. | :25:04. | :25:08. | |
You try to say to him that people were outside the house singing, | :25:09. | :25:13. | |
putting cards and flowers. I do believe he heard. We were all | :25:14. | :25:25. | |
saying, he had opened his eyes. He had the... Smile. Someone was saying | :25:26. | :25:33. | |
to me, and I said, I believe he still hears me. Because every day I | :25:34. | :25:44. | |
would say to him, even if he has all of those tubes, I would kiss his | :25:45. | :25:55. | |
cheek and said, every day, for the past month, I would say, " I love | :25:56. | :26:05. | |
you daddy". Maybe he would open his eyes for just a second and close | :26:06. | :26:10. | |
those eyes. So, for me until the last moment he heard us. You know. | :26:11. | :26:21. | |
The children were there, the grandchildren were there. We were | :26:22. | :26:30. | |
always around him. In the last moments, we were sitting with him. | :26:31. | :26:38. | |
The whole day. That was Nelson Mandela's eldest | :26:39. | :26:42. | |
daughter speaking to our correspondent in Johannesburg. They | :26:43. | :26:47. | |
are preparing for the memorial service to take place tomorrow. | :26:48. | :26:51. | |
Let me remind you of the main news this morning. And that is the | :26:52. | :27:00. | |
Ukrainian president has agreed to a round table of talks and also three | :27:01. | :27:02. |
