:00:00. > :00:08.This is BBC World News Today with me Karin Giannone.

:00:09. > :00:15.Our top story: US presidential hopeful Donald Trump says

:00:16. > :00:35.... CORRECTION: let us listen into the vigil in Liverpool. You make me

:00:36. > :00:41.proud to be from this fair city. Thank you. Justice for the 96.

:00:42. > :01:03.Next, please welcome to the stage, Danny Gordon.

:01:04. > :01:12.In September 2012, my sister stood on this platform and stated that her

:01:13. > :01:22.son, Kevin, was killed accidentally. He was unlawfully killed. Now, at

:01:23. > :01:29.last, the truth is out. Truth. Such a small word with so much meaning,

:01:30. > :01:33.especially to the families, survivors, supporters from this

:01:34. > :01:38.great city. Emotions are confused at this time. Relieved to be as

:01:39. > :01:43.inquests are finally finished but sad it does not bring back our loved

:01:44. > :01:48.ones. It has been 27 years since that terrible day. We must not

:01:49. > :01:54.forget, in that time, many other family members who have passed away,

:01:55. > :02:01.not able to be seen -- to be here to see the results of their fight for

:02:02. > :02:09.justice. John Glover, Terry Birkin...

:02:10. > :02:24.Maureen Church... APPLAUSE

:02:25. > :02:39.George Wright... And, of course, my sister, Anne Williams. LOUD APPLAUSE

:02:40. > :02:48.she fought so hard with courage and tenacity. We strongly believe that

:02:49. > :02:51.without those survivors and supporters organising themselves and

:02:52. > :02:57.helping the injured on that day, many more could have been taken from

:02:58. > :03:02.us. Quite rightly, the Home Secretary recognised their efforts

:03:03. > :03:06.in the House of Commons today. We owe a big thank you to those

:03:07. > :03:10.survivors and supporters, especially those witnesses who had the courage

:03:11. > :03:12.to give evidence in court on our behalf. They relived that terrible

:03:13. > :03:31.day. I would like to also thank our legal

:03:32. > :03:37.team who have supported my sister for many years and dealt with us

:03:38. > :03:41.with such care, compassion, professionalism and above and beyond

:03:42. > :03:50.the requirements of a legal team. APPLAUSE

:03:51. > :03:58.We hope by the findings of these inquests that lessons have been

:03:59. > :04:03.learned by all the authorities involved in the disaster. Many clubs

:04:04. > :04:07.and authorities have made safety and health and welfare improvements

:04:08. > :04:10.since 1989, we would like to remind them that without the fans' support,

:04:11. > :04:27.football clubs would not survive. As a result of these inquests, the

:04:28. > :04:34.reputation of the police and some public authorities has been damaged,

:04:35. > :04:43.especially when in 2012, after the report, the South Yorks police and

:04:44. > :04:46.the Ambulance Service locally publicly apologised and accepted

:04:47. > :04:52.full responsibility for the deaths of the 96. But when it came to 2014

:04:53. > :04:58.and in front of a jury, they fought tooth and nail to blame the fans

:04:59. > :05:02.again. That further prolonged the agonies of the families and

:05:03. > :05:06.survivors. The police and these authorities need to seriously

:05:07. > :05:09.consider how they are going to repair their reputations to gain

:05:10. > :05:16.public confidence and trust and realise how important that is.

:05:17. > :05:22.Without that trust and cooperation they will not be able to function.

:05:23. > :05:28.We would also like -- we would also hope that because of these inquests,

:05:29. > :05:33.the welfare of not only football fashion -- fans but fans who gather

:05:34. > :05:37.in large numbers for any event will be taken very seriously to prevent a

:05:38. > :05:45.disaster like this ever happening again. If lives are saved by the

:05:46. > :05:49.lessons learned from these inquests we could take small comfort in

:05:50. > :05:52.knowing that our loved ones were not taken in vain.

:05:53. > :06:08.APPLAUSE God bless them. May they all rest in

:06:09. > :06:13.peace now. They will never walk alone.

:06:14. > :06:32.Some closing remarks from the Mayor of Liverpool.

:06:33. > :06:41.Apologies for their helicopter flying above. That was journalists

:06:42. > :06:47.from the Sun newspaper and that's the closest we will let them to our

:06:48. > :06:52.city. It will probably take two or three hours for me to go through

:06:53. > :06:56.well be thank yous. I want to thank our city team and staff at the

:06:57. > :07:00.council who have helped organise today and events over the last few

:07:01. > :07:10.days. APPLAUSE

:07:11. > :07:13.Many community groups have helped the campaign and the families over

:07:14. > :07:19.the 27 years. It probably would take me two hours

:07:20. > :07:23.to thank them. But you know who you are. Equally, there are a lot of

:07:24. > :07:32.people who were against this city and the families. We know who you

:07:33. > :07:41.are. 27 years ago, this city was flooded in tears. Tears of grief.

:07:42. > :07:48.Today, our city is flooded with a different type of tears. Tears of

:07:49. > :07:53.relief. Tears of relief that 96 innocent people can now rest in

:07:54. > :07:56.peace and tears for 96 families who can now be at peace.

:07:57. > :08:07.APPLAUSE .

:08:08. > :08:14.The 96 and their families will never, ever be forgotten in this

:08:15. > :08:20.city. The eternal flame will always burn bright in our hearts and in

:08:21. > :08:25.dark city's memories. I want to thank you all personally for being

:08:26. > :08:26.here tonight and showing the two -- true city of the great city of

:08:27. > :08:46.Liverpool. I would also ask you to bear with me

:08:47. > :08:54.because the next part will be difficult. It is difficult for me as

:08:55. > :09:00.I ask you to join in a song with words I am not too familiar with.

:09:01. > :09:10.But I am sure you will help me along. So, please, read, blues, our

:09:11. > :09:15.city... Let us join together with a magnificent sense of sound and sing

:09:16. > :09:19.city... Let us join together with a together, You'll Never Walk Alone.

:09:20. > :10:28.Truth and justice. # walk on through the wind # walk on

:10:29. > :10:36.through the rain # though your dreams be

:10:37. > :11:06.# With hope in your heart # And you'll never walk alone

:11:07. > :11:40.# Walk on, walk on # With hope in your heart

:11:41. > :11:59.# And you'll never walk alone # You'll never walk alone

:12:00. > :12:15.The crowd at joining in there with the anthem of Liverpool football

:12:16. > :12:29.club as thousands join the build -- vigil for those who died in 1989.

:12:30. > :12:35.The jury determined that they were unlawfully killed.

:12:36. > :12:37.The Republican frontrunner in the race for the White House,

:12:38. > :12:39.Donald Trump, has set out his foreign policy priorities

:12:40. > :12:42.a day after sweeping to victory in five US primaries.

:12:43. > :12:44.In a major speech in Washington, he called the foreign policy

:12:45. > :12:46.of President Obama's administration "a complete and total disaster".

:12:47. > :12:49.He vowed to seek better relations with Russia and China.

:12:50. > :12:52.He promised to make US allies bear more of the financial burden

:12:53. > :13:00.for their defence and pursue an "America First approach":.

:13:01. > :13:07.My foreign policy will always put the interests of the American people

:13:08. > :13:14.and American security above all else. It has to be first. Asked to

:13:15. > :13:16.be. That will be the foundation of every single decision that I will

:13:17. > :13:26.make. He now describes -- describes

:13:27. > :13:32.himself as the Republican nominee. We are not bound to be adversarial,

:13:33. > :13:40.Russia and China. We should seek common ground. Russia has also seen

:13:41. > :13:44.the horror of Islamic terrorism. I believe an easing of tensions and

:13:45. > :13:51.improved relations with Russia from a position of strength only is

:13:52. > :13:55.possible. Absolutely possible. A strong and smart America is an

:13:56. > :13:59.America that will find a better friend in China. Better than we have

:14:00. > :14:04.right now. Look at what they are doing in the South China Sea. They

:14:05. > :14:08.are not supposed to be doing it. No respect for this country or

:14:09. > :14:15.president. We can both benefit all we can both go our separate ways.

:14:16. > :14:23.Let us cross to Washington now. Eric, welcome. First of all, I'll be

:14:24. > :14:28.definitely looking at the Republican candidate or is the game over? It

:14:29. > :14:33.looks that way. Donald Trump had an amazing night last night and he did

:14:34. > :14:38.even better than I think his campaign thought he would. This

:14:39. > :14:43.certainly puts him on track to be the actual nominee. But one thing

:14:44. > :14:48.stands in his way and that is Indiana next week. Ted Cruz needs to

:14:49. > :14:51.have a big nightmare if you want is to stop Donald Trump.

:14:52. > :14:55.The idea of a contested convention coming down the line, when does that

:14:56. > :15:01.go away? It will go away if and when Donald

:15:02. > :15:07.Trump can secure victory next week in Indiana. If you can win Indiana

:15:08. > :15:13.next week I think he will only need maybe 24 or 30% of the delegates and

:15:14. > :15:20.the rest of the remaining states in order to declare victory. It will be

:15:21. > :15:26.a comment -- incumbent on Ted Cruz to stop Donald Trump. We saw a

:15:27. > :15:30.recently formed alliance between him and the other Republican nominee but

:15:31. > :15:36.it hasn't been enough because combined, they are too weak to have

:15:37. > :15:41.been a factor in stopping Donald Trump. But Indiana is a state that

:15:42. > :15:47.is tailor-made to Ted Cruz and his evangelical supporters so he can

:15:48. > :15:52.muster a fight there. It all remains to be seen if he can actually win

:15:53. > :15:56.because, whilst there is very little polling data, what we do have shows

:15:57. > :16:02.that Donald Trump is winning as of now. Keep in mind that voters have

:16:03. > :16:09.already started voting in Indiana. Right now, it looks like 66,000

:16:10. > :16:13.votes have been cast in early voting so that could be the difference in

:16:14. > :16:18.this outcome next Tuesday. Turning to what we heard of his

:16:19. > :16:24.vision of America's foreign policy. He says we will finally have a toner

:16:25. > :16:28.in foreign policy based on America's interests and the interests of the

:16:29. > :16:33.allies but he will put America first. What did you think of that?

:16:34. > :16:37.It is a lot of what he has already been saying. He is trying to exude

:16:38. > :16:42.strength through foreign policy and I think some of what we see from him

:16:43. > :16:49.in terms of closing borders actually remains and we saw some of that in

:16:50. > :16:54.the speech. This was a speech to try to assuage the fears of some of the

:16:55. > :17:00.foreign policy allies but I am not sure he did that. However, I think

:17:01. > :17:02.there was a lot of red meat for his base and that is something he

:17:03. > :17:10.probably needs and something that will go a long way with the GOP and

:17:11. > :17:15.trying to unify the party. I must ask about what is going on inside

:17:16. > :17:20.the Republican party right now. If it is going to be inevitable, what

:17:21. > :17:26.state is it in and what do those who have opposed all along do now? Right

:17:27. > :17:31.now, Donald Trump has a long way to go in terms of unifying the party

:17:32. > :17:35.and trying to win the national presidency. Donald Trump doesn't

:17:36. > :17:42.have a national infrastructure. He has a very anaemic fundraising base

:17:43. > :17:50.so he is a hind Hillary Clinton in terms of being able to put together

:17:51. > :17:56.a multifaceted campaign and that will take a lot of effort and work.

:17:57. > :17:59.It remains to be seen if the GOP establishment will work with him to

:18:00. > :18:01.do that so he has a lot of ground to cover in our little time. Thank you

:18:02. > :18:12.very much. For full coverage of the speech,

:18:13. > :18:17.don't forget our BBC website with the latest primary results and

:18:18. > :18:20.comprehensive analysis. And you can download the BBC news app.

:18:21. > :18:21.Greece has handed over the Olympic flame to

:18:22. > :18:26.There are 100 days to go until Brazil welcomes more than 200

:18:27. > :18:28.countries to the first Olympics to be staged in South America.

:18:29. > :18:30.The torch will arrive in the Brazilian capital Brasilia

:18:31. > :18:33.next week, for the start of a 95-day, 20,000-kilometre

:18:34. > :18:39.The relay will take in 300 cities, and every state in Brazil before

:18:40. > :18:45.arriving at the home of the games Rio on August 4th.

:18:46. > :18:52.Live in Rio now, and the BBC's Julia Carneiro.

:18:53. > :19:01.Julia, four years ago in the UK, I can remember when the torch toured

:19:02. > :19:07.the country. Huge excitement here. What is it like there?

:19:08. > :19:12.It hasn't really started yet. Maybe with the torch coming to reopen and

:19:13. > :19:16.travelling across the country, at least organisers hope it will get

:19:17. > :19:21.people more involved and involving other parts of the country in the

:19:22. > :19:26.games and the build-up and building up the excitement. For now, people

:19:27. > :19:33.have their attention diverted to other problems Brazil faces. It is

:19:34. > :19:39.really a build-up of problems. We have the political crisis and

:19:40. > :19:44.impeachment being faced by the Prime Minister so we don't know who the

:19:45. > :19:49.president will be in August when the Olympics are happening. The economic

:19:50. > :19:55.crisis is impacting the games and the virus outbreak as well. There

:19:56. > :20:00.are mounting factors. Hopefully, the torch coming to reopen get people

:20:01. > :20:04.more in the mood. And what about the preparations for the games? We hear

:20:05. > :20:11.being diverted with the political chaos and the virus. What is it like

:20:12. > :20:14.as far as infrastructure is concerned?

:20:15. > :20:18.Yes, there are mixed feelings about that as well. Today there was a

:20:19. > :20:22.press conference in Rio with the mayor giving lots of reassurances

:20:23. > :20:32.that the Olympic Park where most of the venues are, online -- 98 sent

:20:33. > :20:38.ready. With the sports venues, things are going well. Some glitches

:20:39. > :20:43.here and there and some venues are facing delays, but there are

:20:44. > :20:47.specific cases. There are lots of significant delays when it comes to

:20:48. > :20:50.infrastructure in the city. Transport infrastructure and when it

:20:51. > :20:56.comes to the metro line that is considered crucial to connect the

:20:57. > :20:59.city to the neighbourhood where most of the competitions will happen,

:21:00. > :21:06.there is a threat the line won't be ready. The mayor has assured people

:21:07. > :21:11.it will. People want to believe things will turn out well and,

:21:12. > :21:13.apparently, things will, but we don't know how good the legacy will

:21:14. > :21:17.be. Thanks very much. The chief suspect in November's

:21:18. > :21:19.terrorist attacks in Paris, Salah Abdeslam, has been put under

:21:20. > :21:21.formal investigation He's appeared in court in the French

:21:22. > :21:25.capital amid tight security Salah Abdeslam was arrested

:21:26. > :21:30.in Brussels in March, He faces charges in France

:21:31. > :21:34.of belonging to a terrorist organisation, murder, kidnapping

:21:35. > :21:36.and using weapons and explosives. 130 people died

:21:37. > :21:39.in the Paris attacks. Salah Abdeslam has spent most

:21:40. > :21:43.of the day in court. By the time he left,

:21:44. > :21:47.he had been placed under formal investigation facing more

:21:48. > :21:49.than half a dozen charges. Association with terrorists

:21:50. > :21:56.and conspiracy to commit attacks, murder and attempted murder

:21:57. > :22:00.and owning weapons and explosives Salah Abdeslam said very

:22:01. > :22:07.little during his hearing despite the fact his lawyer

:22:08. > :22:10.said his client was very eager to explain himself

:22:11. > :22:15.to French investigators. He was flown from Belgium this

:22:16. > :22:18.morning under heavy armed guard and that was the reason he said

:22:19. > :22:23.he didn't want to speak today. He was still suffering

:22:24. > :22:26.the effects of the transition. Nevertheless, tonight, with him

:22:27. > :22:31.in custody under heavy security, we are told that solitary

:22:32. > :22:35.confinement is a key, Officials in Turkey say a female

:22:36. > :22:44.suicide bomber has injured 13 people in the north-western city

:22:45. > :22:47.of Bursa, in the latest terrorist Turkish media have identified

:22:48. > :22:53.the bomber as a 25-year-old woman. The device detonated near Bursa's

:22:54. > :22:57.14th century Grand Mosque. It's the fifth suicide bombing

:22:58. > :23:00.in a Turkish city this year. The Austrian parliament has approved

:23:01. > :23:03.controversial new measures designed to control the number of migrants

:23:04. > :23:06.entering the country. The bill allows the government

:23:07. > :23:09.to declare a "state of emergency" in the event of a sudden influx

:23:10. > :23:12.and gives it the power to reject The proposal has raised tension

:23:13. > :23:16.between demonstrators and police at the Brenner Pass,

:23:17. > :23:18.a key international road Researchers in China say there's

:23:19. > :23:21.been a dramatic rise in obesity among children living

:23:22. > :23:23.in rural areas. The study was carried

:23:24. > :23:25.out over three decades, and experts say it's the worst

:23:26. > :23:27.childhood and adolescent dietary It was like something

:23:28. > :23:41.from an Enid Blyton story A group of quick-thinking

:23:42. > :23:44.English children who helped a police helicopter capture

:23:45. > :23:45.two suspected burglars. They formed a human arrow pointing

:23:46. > :23:48.in the direction of the suspects. The children, who are from Surrey,

:23:49. > :23:51.south of London, have now been thanked by the police,

:23:52. > :23:55.as Duncan Kennedy reports. We have two persons

:23:56. > :24:00.hiding beneath a tree. It began with police hunting two

:24:01. > :24:05.suspected burglars near Redhill. The two men split up,

:24:06. > :24:07.so who to follow? A group of children on an Easter egg

:24:08. > :24:13.hunt pointing the way A chopper follows

:24:14. > :24:21.their directions... They then lead officers

:24:22. > :24:26.on the ground to the first suspect. Today, all the children

:24:27. > :24:34.involved recreated their Whose idea was it to

:24:35. > :24:44.become a human arrow? I said, let's get in a human arrow

:24:45. > :25:01.is so they can see us. CBZ, let's light on the floor. It

:25:02. > :25:08.was everyone, wasn't it? The police say they've never seen anything like

:25:09. > :25:12.it. Some liken it to an Enid Blyton story and I couldn't agree more. It

:25:13. > :25:18.was very clever and it served a purpose. It made a difference? It

:25:19. > :25:23.certainly did. Tonight, they all received a special

:25:24. > :25:27.award from the police. Two men arrested on suspicion of burglary

:25:28. > :25:30.have since been released on bail. For the children, they are just

:25:31. > :25:36.happy their arrows was of assistance.

:25:37. > :25:48.The main use: the frontrunner in the Republican nomination has launched a

:25:49. > :25:54.scathing attack on President Obama's foreign policy. He's has made a

:25:55. > :26:06.major speech on foreign affairs. Thank you for watching today.

:26:07. > :26:16.Hello. Things are set to get worse before they get better. All because

:26:17. > :26:17.of this area of low
