:01:07. > :01:10.world in sound. Hello and welcome. The

:01:10. > :01:15.international drive to remove Muammar Gaddafi from power has been

:01:15. > :01:18.reinforced today. Britain has declared that the National

:01:18. > :01:22.Transitional Council is the legitimate government authority. It

:01:22. > :01:26.is expelling the remaining diplomats in London and a new

:01:26. > :01:33.ambassador has been named. It is preparing to unfreeze millions of

:01:33. > :01:35.pounds of Libyan assets. The rebels have turned the screw on Gaddafi.

:01:35. > :01:42.They say they are no longer prepared to allow him to stay in

:01:42. > :01:47.the country if he does stand down. The green flag of Colonel Gaddafi's

:01:47. > :01:51.Libya. Today's moved to treat the rebels as the government is a

:01:51. > :01:54.significant boost for them, Britain following the US and France in

:01:54. > :01:58.intensifying the pressure on the regime.

:01:58. > :02:01.We no longer read -- recognise them as the representatives of the

:02:02. > :02:05.Libyan government and we invite the National Transitional Council to

:02:05. > :02:09.appoint a new Libyan diplomatic envoy to take over the embassy in

:02:09. > :02:14.London. Libya's Embassy in London is in

:02:14. > :02:19.Knightsbridge. The ambassador was expelled in. Now the charge

:02:19. > :02:26.d'affaires has three days to leave. Other diplomats must go as well and

:02:26. > :02:30.Britain will unlock �91 million of assets from the Libyan oil

:02:30. > :02:33.companies -- oil company. This is an important symbolic moment,

:02:33. > :02:38.especially for the small group of rebel supporters who have come here

:02:38. > :02:44.hoping to replace the flag of Colonel Gaddafi's regime with their

:02:44. > :02:48.own. The question is what difference it will make underground.

:02:48. > :02:53.Joining the demonstrators, a former financial adviser at the embassy,

:02:53. > :02:57.who was sacked when he showed his support for the rebels.

:02:57. > :03:01.Translation mack this is very positive. It is a psychological

:03:01. > :03:04.boost. We will be able to use the fund to help the Libyan people and

:03:04. > :03:09.hopefully this is just the beginning.

:03:10. > :03:13.Colonel Gaddafi still commands support in Libya, particularly in

:03:13. > :03:19.Tripoli, the capital. It is difficult to gauge how much in a

:03:19. > :03:21.regime like his but increasingly the Benghazi based National

:03:21. > :03:26.Transitional Council is being recognised internationally and the

:03:26. > :03:31.political battle against the regime is heating up amid a military

:03:31. > :03:37.stalemate. There are several front lines. Close to Brega, to the west

:03:37. > :03:41.of Misrata, and to the West of Tripoli. But there has been no

:03:41. > :03:46.decisive shift to give the rebels the momentum they need. They might

:03:46. > :03:50.have been four months of Nato bombing, much longer than Britain

:03:50. > :03:54.hoped Gaddafi would last. So instead it is turning up the

:03:54. > :04:00.diplomatic pressure. The Government, under pressure itself under the

:04:00. > :04:04.lead -- over the Libyan campaign. Let's get some more on this. We can

:04:04. > :04:09.cross to our Oxford studio and speak to Oliver Miles, the former

:04:09. > :04:13.British ambassador to Libya. Why do you think it has taken this long

:04:13. > :04:20.for the government to follow suit after the Americans and the French

:04:20. > :04:24.and others? I think William Hague partly explained that. I think

:04:24. > :04:31.there are a number of reasons. The circumstances of each country are

:04:31. > :04:36.different. One important Ewan was that the large number of Libyan

:04:36. > :04:40.students in Britain who are dependent on money coming through

:04:41. > :04:44.the embassy. It would have been wrong, I think, to have rushed to a

:04:44. > :04:49.solution which would have left them without support. I have done

:04:49. > :04:53.nothing wrong, they don't support - - don't deserve to lose their

:04:53. > :04:58.support. William Hague said that he was pretty confident that the way

:04:58. > :05:02.this has been handled means they will not suffer. You're looking

:05:03. > :05:11.more at the practicalities of the decision rather than a strategic

:05:11. > :05:15.move? Yes, the two are not really to be separated. It has its

:05:15. > :05:20.symbolic importance of course and it is all part of a movement to

:05:20. > :05:28.increase the pressure on Gaddafi. There were to decisions taken by

:05:28. > :05:31.the British government today. -- two. If you can sift out two points

:05:31. > :05:34.from the quite long presentation that William Hague gave, one was

:05:34. > :05:41.the decision to recognise the National Transitional Council as

:05:41. > :05:46.the only legitimate authority in Libya, which is new. Previously

:05:46. > :05:50.they were recognised as legitimate but not the only legitimate

:05:51. > :05:55.authority. Secondly, the decision to dismiss from Britain the

:05:55. > :05:58.remaining diplomats in the Libyan embassy. Neither of those are

:05:58. > :06:01.tremendously important in themselves but taken together with

:06:01. > :06:05.other actions we have been taking and our allies have been taking

:06:05. > :06:10.they are increasing the pressure. We are talking about four months

:06:11. > :06:15.after the bombing campaign began. Are you surprised by what some

:06:15. > :06:18.people would say is how little has been achieved? No. I think that

:06:18. > :06:24.anybody who thought this matter could be settled by air power was

:06:24. > :06:27.deceiving himself. There are very strong reasons for thinking it

:06:27. > :06:31.would be difficult and it would take time. Nobody could tell how

:06:31. > :06:33.long it would take. What was interested to see that William

:06:34. > :06:38.Hague was emphasising not only that we can't predict how long it will

:06:38. > :06:43.take but also that we will go on as long as it takes, and I think that

:06:43. > :06:47.is an important political point as well as being true, I imagine. But

:06:47. > :06:53.it increases the pressure -- the idea that the military pressure is

:06:53. > :06:56.not going to go away. Transparency, openness, and a

:06:56. > :07:00.commission to investigate how Norway's nightmare happened. If

:07:00. > :07:06.that is the message the Prime Mr Jens Stoltenberg delivered today.

:07:06. > :07:09.He said the country would not be intimidated by Friday's killings.

:07:09. > :07:19.Police continue fit -- to search for people reported missing after

:07:19. > :07:24.the shooting on the motorway or Ireland. -- b Utoeya Island.

:07:24. > :07:27.Norway's bomb squad. Abandoned suitcase has been spotted and the

:07:27. > :07:32.bus is empty. It was harmless but Norwegians are haunted by what

:07:32. > :07:37.happened five days ago. This was the moment last Friday when a

:07:37. > :07:41.massive car-bomb launched a massacre. Anders Breivik went on to

:07:41. > :07:47.shoot scores of young people on the island of Utoeya. They were

:07:47. > :07:50.supporters of the governing Labour Camp -- Labour Party. More

:07:50. > :07:59.survivors told their stories today. Was there a time when you thought

:07:59. > :08:03.you would not have -- survive? Are you through the worst? I think

:08:04. > :08:08.the worst of it will be to know all of the names of people who are dead.

:08:08. > :08:12.It will be hard to go to the funerals, to meet the families, and

:08:12. > :08:20.I think it will be hard to one day wake up and realise that we have to

:08:20. > :08:26.get back to light, back to work and try to function as normal.

:08:26. > :08:30.This woman was lucky. She left the island two hours before the

:08:30. > :08:34.shootings. She wants to stress her pride in Norway's multiculturalism

:08:34. > :08:38.and the tolerance that Breivik wanted to destroy.

:08:38. > :08:44.My story tells a lot about the opportunities that Norway gives to

:08:45. > :08:50.all youngsters. Including Muslims? Yes. In how many other countries

:08:51. > :08:55.can you be the daughter of immigrants and become a

:08:55. > :09:01.parliamentary servant at the age of 28. In Oslo, the buildings scarred

:09:01. > :09:05.by the bombing started to be patched up but Norway's collective

:09:05. > :09:08.sense of shock is still profound. The physical damage will take

:09:08. > :09:12.months to prepare. The government is warning that some buildings will

:09:12. > :09:18.have to be demolished but of course it is the psychological damage that

:09:18. > :09:22.is of far greater concern. But most Norwegians seem certain that it is

:09:22. > :09:32.their strong shared values that will get them through the difficult

:09:32. > :09:33.

:09:33. > :09:37.days and weeks to come. We can go to Oslo live now and

:09:37. > :09:42.speak to Mohammad Usman Rana, a Muslim commentator. We heard that

:09:42. > :09:52.Norway is the land of opportunity for all sorts of backgrounds. Has

:09:52. > :09:55.

:09:55. > :09:59.this change to Norway for you? -- changed. No. Norway will not change

:09:59. > :10:06.with its multiculturalism and unique openness. Norwegians are

:10:06. > :10:11.very certain that we can't change our openness, we can't change our

:10:11. > :10:18.liberal state and we will try to preserve that. When you first heard

:10:18. > :10:22.of this appalling event, did you have a sense of anxiety that people

:10:22. > :10:32.would start, at least symbolically, pointing the finger at you and

:10:32. > :10:32.

:10:32. > :10:36.other Muslims in the country? think the terrorist attack is

:10:36. > :10:45.serious and devastating for Norwegians independent of whether

:10:45. > :10:50.it was a Muslim extremist or her right wing extremists, but of

:10:50. > :10:57.course, since this was an attack committed by a Norwegian extremist,

:10:57. > :11:01.this emphasises that terrorists do not have religion and that

:11:01. > :11:06.Norwegians have to unify. Actually, be positive outcome of this

:11:06. > :11:10.terrorist attack is that we Norwegians stand even more united.

:11:10. > :11:16.I just wondered if you feel in any way that Norway has perhaps

:11:16. > :11:19.perversely paid the price here for being... You have described it as a

:11:19. > :11:23.well-functioning multicultural society. Perhaps it is that ability

:11:23. > :11:32.to bring everybody else into the community that in this case has

:11:32. > :11:35.cost it dear. Yes, I mean, Norway compared to other European

:11:35. > :11:40.countries is a very well- functioning multicultural society.

:11:40. > :11:46.We do not have get the widest neighbour heard lights you have in

:11:46. > :11:56.London and Bradford. - Matt Giteau neighbourhoods. -- ghetto

:11:56. > :12:01.neighbourhoods. What is important now is to analyse what radicalised

:12:01. > :12:06.this not -- young Norwegian to become a terrorist, exactly like

:12:06. > :12:13.Muslims have to examine how some Muslim terrorists misuse Islam to

:12:13. > :12:18.commit terrorism we also have to examine why some right-wing

:12:18. > :12:23.extremists, where they get their ideology from and what made them

:12:23. > :12:27.radicalised. I am sure there will be a long period of analysis. Thank

:12:27. > :12:31.you very much. Let's take a look at some of the

:12:31. > :12:36.day's other news. Reports from Syria say that security forces have

:12:36. > :12:43.launched an attack on a town near Damascus. Troops reinforced by

:12:43. > :12:48.tanks killed at least 11 civilians in Kay, activists say. -- in

:12:48. > :12:52.Kanaker. A suicide bomber has killed the

:12:52. > :12:57.mayor of the southern Afghan city of Kandahar. Ghulam Haidar Hameedi

:12:57. > :12:59.was meeting tribal elders when he died. A spokesman for the Taliban

:12:59. > :13:04.said that they carried out the attack.

:13:04. > :13:07.Police in China say they have rescued 89 kidnapped babies during

:13:07. > :13:12.operations to break up child smuggling gangs. The police told

:13:12. > :13:17.state media that they had arrested more than 100 people in southern

:13:17. > :13:21.provinces on suspicion of trafficking baby girls. The report

:13:22. > :13:25.said some of the babies had been brought into China from Vietnam.

:13:25. > :13:30.Torrential rain described as the worst in a century has triggered

:13:30. > :13:37.landslides in South Korea, killing at least 28 people. Worst hit was

:13:37. > :13:42.the northern city of Chuncheon. Buildings were hit by a torrent of

:13:42. > :13:46.mud and debris. Parts of the capital were also flooded.

:13:46. > :13:50.The Arab Spring protests in Yemen have left the country in political

:13:50. > :13:55.you -- political limbo. President Ali Abdullah Saleh was badly burned

:13:55. > :13:59.in a bomb attack last month and is recuperating in Saudi Arabia.

:13:59. > :14:05.Political opponents say that the President refuses to enter into

:14:05. > :14:10.negotiations for political change. Now, look at the country's

:14:10. > :14:15.political impasse. Army tanks are regular sight on the

:14:15. > :14:18.streets in Yemen. These elite forces in Taiz have been battling

:14:18. > :14:23.with opposition protesters. The President, President Ali Abdullah

:14:23. > :14:28.Saleh, has not been in the country for weeks. His palace became a

:14:28. > :14:31.battle zone in June and he was airlifted to Saudi Arabia for

:14:31. > :14:37.medical treatment for serious burns. This picture of him was broadcast

:14:37. > :14:42.on Yemen -- Yemeni television three weeks ago. The country has been in

:14:42. > :14:44.political stalemate since he left. Before his departure, Western

:14:44. > :14:50.governments had been pressurising the President to sign a plan to

:14:51. > :14:56.hand over power but he backed out of signing three times.

:14:56. > :15:00.TRANSLATION: there is political will with a large number of leaders

:15:00. > :15:03.and they are what -- are aware that the situation has worsened so much

:15:03. > :15:09.that the people can't tolerate these conditions.

:15:09. > :15:18.A militants associated with Crewe have been ramping up their efforts

:15:18. > :15:23.in the south. -- with Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula. Opponents

:15:24. > :15:31.see it as a ploy to convince foreign governments that only the

:15:31. > :15:35.government can deal with the militants. Both its -- it seems

:15:35. > :15:44.that the calls of the opponents to change are being ignored, with

:15:44. > :15:51.I'm now joined here in the studio by the Yemeni foreign minister, Dr

:15:51. > :16:00.Abu Bakr Al-Qirbi. How close are you to dialogue with the opposition

:16:00. > :16:07.now? The we have already started the dialogue, by the Vice President

:16:07. > :16:11.and some leaders of the opposition, some representatives of the joint

:16:11. > :16:14.meeting parties. Or two about the transitional council? We are

:16:14. > :16:19.looking at this situation where there is a pre- requisite here that

:16:19. > :16:23.the president accepts he can no longer hold office, and that still

:16:23. > :16:31.will not happen. I'd been the President has already declared that

:16:31. > :16:41.he is not going to run for election for a second time, that his son

:16:41. > :16:44.will also not run. That clearly is not enough, though, is it. This is

:16:44. > :16:49.the response of the President. It cannot go every day and changing

:16:49. > :16:53.demands. I think people now have Bisset and agree on a road map for

:16:53. > :16:57.a transition that will lead to the transfer of power. The but it is

:16:57. > :17:01.fair to say, isn't it, that what built up to the President being

:17:01. > :17:06.bred in his own presidential palace, albeit whether we call it tribal

:17:06. > :17:10.rivalries or whatever, was a real conflagration of violence in the

:17:10. > :17:16.capital, and the President was at the heart of it. He has moved out

:17:16. > :17:21.and things have calmed down. think they have calmed down because

:17:21. > :17:28.the President's first instructions after the attack on his life, and

:17:28. > :17:36.also the lives of many leaders of the government, this was really a

:17:36. > :17:42.terrorist attack, I think. You cannot look at it as part of the

:17:42. > :17:45.political situation in Yemen. This is a terrorist attack. And one has

:17:45. > :17:49.to wait for the results of the investigation and see who is

:17:49. > :17:52.responsible for it. Let me ask you this. You have acknowledged that

:17:52. > :17:57.the President says he will not stand again. How important is the

:17:57. > :18:01.President now for the future of the country? He is important to see

:18:01. > :18:05.that there is a proper and safe transition of power in Yemen.

:18:05. > :18:10.yet that will not happen as long as he is there, according to many of

:18:10. > :18:16.the opposition. This is one part of the story. On the other side, I

:18:16. > :18:20.think the ruling party says his presence will allow for a use for

:18:20. > :18:26.transfer of power, because he is not running. He has already acted,

:18:26. > :18:30.I think, with the greatest responsibility after that attempt

:18:30. > :18:35.on his life. He has ordered that there should be no revenge, that

:18:35. > :18:39.they should be no actions that will lead to a civil war. I think he has

:18:39. > :18:45.also had eight operations, so he is clearly not a man in great shape.

:18:45. > :18:51.The UN Secretary General's envoy has said this is a country close to

:18:51. > :18:56.collapse. Would you go along with that? I think the country faces a

:18:56. > :19:01.very serious political crisis, yes. I think the collapse will depend on

:19:01. > :19:04.how the opposition and the Government take full responsibility

:19:04. > :19:07.in addressing the challenges of getting in and out of this crisis.

:19:07. > :19:11.Thank you very much. It's not true of every Olympic

:19:11. > :19:14.Games that the venues are put on display a year ahead of schedule.

:19:14. > :19:17.But London is putting on a show already - such is the confidence

:19:17. > :19:24.here that everything is running to plan. Babita Sharma is at the

:19:24. > :19:28.Aquatic Centre in the Olympic Park for us.

:19:28. > :19:32.Thank you. The show is faring much under way here. Welcome to east

:19:32. > :19:35.London. I'm inside the Aquatics Centre, which has been the

:19:35. > :19:41.centrepiece of what has been happening here today, marking a

:19:41. > :19:44.year to go to the false start of the opening ceremony of the London

:19:45. > :19:49.2012 Olympics. It is a very impressive building. It is one of

:19:49. > :19:55.pride -- five permanent venues that have actually been completed today.

:19:55. > :19:59.One man who got a taste for the pool was the British medal hope for

:19:59. > :20:03.diver Tom Daley, who within the last 10 minutes also took to the

:20:03. > :20:11.top of the diving board to acknowledge the crowd surrounding

:20:11. > :20:19.him as he took that dive. A very iconic moment, he described it for

:20:19. > :20:23.himself and an historic moment for the young 17-year-old. This houses

:20:23. > :20:28.some 17,005 unexpected as who will come here to the capital to watch

:20:28. > :20:32.the events. It is interesting. Many people have been talking about the

:20:32. > :20:35.legacy of the London 2012 Olympics. We don't know what I will be

:20:35. > :20:38.perhaps and in many years to come and will we know the true extent of

:20:38. > :20:44.how these games will be remembered. But our correspondent has been

:20:44. > :20:48.looking at the legacy of the Beijing Olympics in 2008.

:20:48. > :20:54.We are here at the Bird's Nest Stadium, which is a symbol of what

:20:54. > :20:58.would -- what was a hugely successful Olympic Games. Beijing

:20:58. > :21:02.spent $14 billion according to some estimates. That is far more than

:21:02. > :21:06.London is spending. We're just going to go inside not speak to a

:21:06. > :21:12.top Chinese official about the preparations which the City took in

:21:12. > :21:22.order to host what is a massive event. A year ahead of the Olympics

:21:22. > :21:22.

:21:22. > :21:27.here in Beijing, where were you at? TRANSLATION: At that time, we held

:21:27. > :21:32.the one year can dance ceremony in Tiananmen Square. It is a crucial

:21:32. > :21:40.time. The Kop, of course, is ticking. The key issue is making

:21:40. > :21:50.sure that every deadline is met. -- the key issue. Do you have any tips

:21:50. > :21:51.

:21:51. > :21:54.or advice for London? Make sure that the Olympics complement the

:21:54. > :22:02.city's development. When we built the new infrastructure for the

:22:02. > :22:07.Olympics, it improved everybody's standard of living.

:22:07. > :22:11.Just ahead of the Olympics, Beijing went on a building binge. But it

:22:11. > :22:17.wasn't a sports venues. It was subway lines and airport terminal,

:22:17. > :22:20.roads and railways. It was all designed to keep a city on the move

:22:20. > :22:25.and an Olympic Games running like clockwork. But three years after

:22:25. > :22:31.the event was held, what is the legacy? When with one of China's

:22:31. > :22:36.best-known sports commentators, Yan Qiang. What did the game has been

:22:36. > :22:40.to China? It was a door opening event out that time, the first

:22:40. > :22:45.real-time that modern China had opened its doors to the world and

:22:45. > :22:50.show what we were about. How is the legacy a different one -- from what

:22:50. > :23:00.is expected to be the legacy in London? I would say Beijing 2008

:23:00. > :23:00.

:23:00. > :23:04.might be the last mega Olympics in history. In London, it is according

:23:04. > :23:08.to have the ability of the city. In Beijing, it was about national

:23:08. > :23:16.confidence. Ever since the end of the Olympics, the Water Cube has

:23:16. > :23:20.proved a huge success story. But with water flying and life banneds,

:23:20. > :23:24.it was always going to be a draw. The Olympics in London are going to

:23:24. > :23:29.be very different from the ones here. But people here hope that one

:23:29. > :23:38.thing remains the same, that is that at the end of the Olympics,

:23:38. > :23:42.China has won the most gold medals. The IOC president Jacques Rogge has

:23:42. > :23:45.formally welcomed the world's athletes to the London 2012 Olympic

:23:45. > :23:50.Games and celebrations will continue in Trafalgar Square and

:23:50. > :24:00.here at the Aquatics Centre in east London. Back to you.

:24:00. > :24:02.

:24:02. > :24:05.Exciting stuff. Thank you. The setting could not have been

:24:05. > :24:08.more English - the Proms at London's Royal Albert Hall. But the

:24:08. > :24:10.music at The Human Planet Prom was very international. The concert,

:24:10. > :24:13.aimed at celebrating the universal appeal of music, included

:24:13. > :24:19.performers from Mongolia, Greenland and Zambia. David Hannah was at the

:24:19. > :24:23.rehearsals. Music, universal language for the

:24:23. > :24:27.globe. That was the idea behind a unique Prom concert at the Royal

:24:27. > :24:37.Albert Hall. The inspiration came from a BBC Tullett -- a television

:24:37. > :24:47.programme, The Human Planet, with music composed by Nitin Sawhney. It

:24:47. > :24:47.

:24:47. > :24:51.underlined the fusion of music around the globe and YouTube.

:24:51. > :24:55.can see music from anywhere on line. You can look at music for more to

:24:55. > :25:05.them parts of the world on YouTube. I think there is more of a free

:25:15. > :25:23.the world. Some had never left their own countries, but they have

:25:23. > :25:29.much in common despite differing musical cultures. I compose my own

:25:29. > :25:36.music out of my tradition. If I see an event, I can compose a song

:25:36. > :25:42.about what I see. Anything I see around. If Lacey people fighting,

:25:42. > :25:49.ask them why they are fighting and I compose a song. If I close my

:25:49. > :25:56.eyes and hear music from Mongolia, I'm feeling at home because I am

:25:56. > :26:06.feeling something in my heart. These musicians from Mongolia are

:26:06. > :26:09.

:26:09. > :26:17.already big on the World Music Mongolian throat singing but with

:26:17. > :26:20.African drumming. Music has put created its way

:26:20. > :26:27.around the world from the dawn of time, mixing different ideas. That

:26:27. > :26:34.is what Mesic is added to never disappoints. Today we have certain

:26:34. > :26:43.blends of music. Within a decade, there will be a whole new one.

:27:00. > :27:04.brought to the heart of London. Hello. Yet again, today some of us

:27:04. > :27:07.have warm sunshine, but for others it was a little bit cloudy.

:27:07. > :27:10.Tomorrow, it is really the cloud which will dominate first thing in

:27:10. > :27:13.the morning. We have also got a weather front to contend with

:27:13. > :27:17.tomorrow with a bit of rain around. You will start to see the weather

:27:17. > :27:21.system moving in to the north and west overnight. Ahead of that, it

:27:21. > :27:24.is good to stay dry, and with all the cloud not a particularly cold

:27:28. > :27:32.of England and Wales ahead of the front. After a bright start across

:27:32. > :27:36.northern England, think we will see a bit patchy rain arriving in

:27:36. > :27:41.Newcastle. Parts of the East Midlands staying dry and bright and

:27:41. > :27:44.a much warmer day in London. A cloudy a day in store for south-

:27:44. > :27:48.west England. Temperatures as a result perhaps a few degrees down.

:27:48. > :27:52.But there will be some sunny spells at times. Across Wales, does much

:27:52. > :27:56.more overcast. We may even see a bit of patchy light rain or drizzle

:27:56. > :27:59.especially across the higher ground. For Northern Ireland, after a bit

:27:59. > :28:03.of a damp start, we will start to see some sunny spells through the

:28:03. > :28:07.afternoon towards the north and west. But through Belfast, it will

:28:07. > :28:10.be cooler and cloudier. A much cooler day for Glasgow and towards

:28:10. > :28:13.Edinburgh. But I think up towards the Highlands, we will see some
