:00:26. > :00:28.Mr Trump also accuses Iran of fuelling sectarian conflict

:00:29. > :00:34.South Korea's new government says the latest missile test

:00:35. > :00:45.by North Korea has dashed its hopes of forging peace with its neighbour.

:00:46. > :00:50.Although, the summit of achievement, the woman who climbed to the top of

:00:51. > :01:03.Mount Everest twice in one week. We will talk to her husband.

:01:04. > :01:05.Hello and welcome to World News Today.

:01:06. > :01:08.President Trump, who campaigned on a promise to stop all Muslims

:01:09. > :01:12.coming to the United States, has ended the last day of his visit

:01:13. > :01:16.to Saudi Arabia with a speech in front of 50 Muslim leaders.

:01:17. > :01:19.He used the occasion to tell them to take the lead

:01:20. > :01:22.in combating Islamist terrorism, rather than wait for American

:01:23. > :01:28.And he went out of his way to blame Iran, Saudi Arabia's biggest rival,

:01:29. > :01:30.for causing instability in the region.

:01:31. > :01:35.He accused it of fuelling sectarian conflict.

:01:36. > :01:37.You join us in Riyadh, where what is called the Riyadh

:01:38. > :01:40.President Donald Trump came to the Saudi kingdom,

:01:41. > :01:43.his first stop on his first foreign visit, to reset relations

:01:44. > :01:45.with the most-important partner of the United States

:01:46. > :01:49.in the Middle East, and today it was a speech to recalibrate

:01:50. > :01:55.the battle against forces of extremism and ideology.

:01:56. > :01:58.He made it absolutely clear the battle had to start

:01:59. > :02:06.He said that 95% of the victims of extremism are Muslims.

:02:07. > :02:11.He said, "America will stand by you, but you cannot wait for America

:02:12. > :02:17.Gone from this speech were the old phrases

:02:18. > :02:21.like "clashes of civilisation", gone too the phrase of Donald Trump

:02:22. > :02:24.which he used repeatedly during his election campaign,

:02:25. > :02:32.Today he framed it as a battle between good and evil.

:02:33. > :02:39.Let's hear more of what he had to say.

:02:40. > :02:43.The President has been on a mission into Middle East politics today

:02:44. > :02:46.and a charm offensive, meeting a host of Arab and Gulf

:02:47. > :02:51.One central geopolitical subject, the fight against Islamist

:02:52. > :02:55.extremism, and how to make good on his pledge to destroy

:02:56. > :03:00.But after the trenchant and, some would say, Islamophobic

:03:01. > :03:04.language of the election campaign, the President chose a much more

:03:05. > :03:15.This is not about different sects or different civilisations.

:03:16. > :03:20.This is a battle between barbaric criminals who seek to obliterate

:03:21. > :03:27.human life and decent people, all in the name of religion.

:03:28. > :03:31.This is a battle between good and evil.

:03:32. > :03:35.He said that if terrorism must be defeated, it was up to the people

:03:36. > :03:41.A better future is only possible if your nation drive out

:03:42. > :03:46.the terrorists and drive out the extremists.

:03:47. > :03:55.Drive them out of your places of worship.

:03:56. > :04:06.This speech was a far cry from the language that

:04:07. > :04:09.Donald Trump and his allies used during the campaign.

:04:10. > :04:13.No more talk about "Islam hates us", no more mention of this

:04:14. > :04:20.The one phrase that he chided Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama

:04:21. > :04:26.for not using, "radical Islamic terrorism", was not even mentioned.

:04:27. > :04:30.Donald J Trump is calling for a total and complete

:04:31. > :04:34.shutdown of Muslims entering the United States.

:04:35. > :04:38.Radical Islam is coming to our shores.

:04:39. > :04:44.We have a radical Islamic terrorism problem, folks.

:04:45. > :04:48.Donald Trump has made a lot of friends with this

:04:49. > :04:50.visit and this speech, a more-inclusive tone,

:04:51. > :04:53.a pledge of American help, combined with a strong

:04:54. > :05:15.Exactly what his Saudi hosts were hoping for.

:05:16. > :05:17.What are the Saudis now expecting from the American President?

:05:18. > :05:19.We are joined by a Saudi political analyst.

:05:20. > :05:21.You wrote in Arab newspapers about this visit, the words

:05:22. > :05:24.of Donald Trump today, are they words that you welcome?

:05:25. > :05:27.Of course we welcome this visit, and we hope it will build

:05:28. > :05:28.a new strategy of assimilation to counterterrorism,

:05:29. > :05:30.because we want to do that with our allies.

:05:31. > :05:36.We want to invite them to be with us, for these efforts to be

:05:37. > :05:40.joint efforts to counter terrorism, and we want to explain

:05:41. > :05:45.to them what terrorism is, because what we have seen before,

:05:46. > :06:00.countering terrorism was not just on one side or the other,

:06:01. > :06:02.it was countering the side effects, not the roots.

:06:03. > :06:06.There was criticism that Saudi Arabia also has to deal

:06:07. > :06:09.with the roots of terrorism right here in Saudi Arabia.

:06:10. > :06:16.We are talking about the Iranian revolution that began in 79,

:06:17. > :06:20.they began with this destruction, and spreading their sectarianism

:06:21. > :06:30.Before that, we have not seen the devastation happen.

:06:31. > :06:35.This is the Saudi view of Iran, but some of your Gulf neighbours

:06:36. > :06:42.do not agree that Iran must be approached in this way.

:06:43. > :06:44.They would like to reach out to Iran, to talk

:06:45. > :06:53.We talked with our friends, we watched their media,

:06:54. > :07:04.If you just focus on that, Daesh, Al-Qaeda, those organisations,

:07:05. > :07:19.What they are looking for, they have the same way

:07:20. > :07:23.to attack Saudi Arabia, they think it is easy to control

:07:24. > :07:37.Those militias have leaders inside Iran, recruits.

:07:38. > :07:41.If we want to solve this problem, we have to counter terrorism,

:07:42. > :07:46.In 2009 Barack Obama spoke to the Muslim

:07:47. > :07:54.How can you be sure President Trump's engagement will be

:07:55. > :08:01.any different from that of Barack Obama?

:08:02. > :08:12.But what we can see or understand from this visit is that Mr Trump

:08:13. > :08:19.chose this to be the first foreign visit for him, and he is serious.

:08:20. > :08:22.He wants to secure the region, and he realised the danger

:08:23. > :08:30.of leaving Iran and militias working in the region.

:08:31. > :08:34.If we don't deter them, dismantle them, the world will suffer,

:08:35. > :08:39.If you want to secure our region, the whole world has to work

:08:40. > :08:48.together, and we do not have anything to hide.

:08:49. > :08:50.In his speech, President Trump also followed King Salman in singling

:08:51. > :08:55.He called on all countries to work together to isolate Iran,

:08:56. > :08:59.accusing the Islamic republic of fuelling "the fires of sectarian

:09:00. > :09:06.No discussion of stamping out this threat would be complete

:09:07. > :09:12.without mentioning the government that gives terrorists

:09:13. > :09:16.Safe harbour, financial backing and the social

:09:17. > :09:21.It is a regime that is responsible for so much

:09:22. > :09:36.From Lebanon to Iraq to Yemen, Iran funds arms

:09:37. > :09:42.and trains terrorists, militias and other extremist groups

:09:43. > :09:48.that spread destruction and chaos across the region.

:09:49. > :09:51.For decades, Iran has fuelled the fires of sectarian

:09:52. > :09:57.It's a government that speaks openly of mass murder,

:09:58. > :10:01.vowing the destruction of Israel, death to America and ruin

:10:02. > :10:08.for many leaders and nations in this very room.

:10:09. > :10:12.Earlier, I spoke to Kasra Naji of BBC Persian Service,

:10:13. > :10:14.and he said Iran will look at President Trump's

:10:15. > :10:29.What I have seen is some of the tweets from some hardliners on

:10:30. > :10:35.Twitter, hardline elements in Iran, who say that every time we showed

:10:36. > :10:41.weakness, this is how our enemies behave. This is a reference to

:10:42. > :10:48.re-electing a moderate leader, rather than a hardline leader,

:10:49. > :10:56.President, with reference to the re-election the president yesterday.

:10:57. > :10:59.A lot of this is rhetoric, big sales of arms agreed to Saudi Arabia,

:11:00. > :11:11.which would be more alarming than words? Yes. $120 worth of hardware

:11:12. > :11:15.-- 110 Ilion dollars worth of hardware will change the military

:11:16. > :11:18.balance to some extent. I do not know how much, but it is one of

:11:19. > :11:27.those things that Iranians will watch. That might spur Iranians

:11:28. > :11:33.hardliners, who are controlling the Revolutionary Guards, and other

:11:34. > :11:36.centres of power, to push on with their ballistic missile programmes

:11:37. > :11:41.and that kind of thing. That was the point I was going to come onto, to

:11:42. > :11:45.what extent does this play into the hands of hardliners in Iran, who

:11:46. > :11:51.have criticised their president for signing a deal with Donald Trump's

:11:52. > :11:54.predecessor? If you are a country and you see other countries putting

:11:55. > :12:03.against you, you will strengthen your defences, you will get worked

:12:04. > :12:11.up and ready. This is what you might expect. I am sure the hardliners in

:12:12. > :12:18.Iran will push for this particular programme, the rearming of Iran,

:12:19. > :12:21.further militarisation, and all of that. That is the obvious outcome,

:12:22. > :12:24.if you like. After giving his 30-minute speech,

:12:25. > :12:27.President Trump, whose fondness for Twitter is well known,

:12:28. > :12:30.was due to take part in a Twitter But at the last minute,

:12:31. > :12:34.his daughter Ivanka had No explanation has been

:12:35. > :12:39.given as to why Mr Trump Ms Trump has sent Arab Twitter

:12:40. > :12:46.into overdrive and is currently trending with the top hashtag

:12:47. > :13:00.in Arabic, #Trumpsdaughter. Still to come, also will have failed

:13:01. > :13:03.to qualify for the Champions League for the first time in 20 years,

:13:04. > :14:31.despite a 3-1 victory over Everton. Welcome back.

:14:32. > :14:33.Donald Trump has called on Muslim nations to take the lead on

:14:34. > :14:37.combating terror in Saudi Arabia. In Scotland leaders of six political

:14:38. > :14:39.parties have taken part in a televised debate ahead of next

:14:40. > :14:41.month's general Britain's exit from the EU

:14:42. > :14:45.and the issue of Scottish independence from the UK have been

:14:46. > :15:06.central topics in the debate. What are the key moments? You said

:15:07. > :15:09.that independent and the decision for the UK to leave the EU would be

:15:10. > :15:17.key, we always thought they would be, and so they were. We had an

:15:18. > :15:25.independence referendum in 2014, most voters voted to stay in the UK,

:15:26. > :15:33.but the SNP leader Nicola Sturgeon has been saying that since then the

:15:34. > :15:39.Brexit vote, where most voters in Scotland wanted to stay in the UK,

:15:40. > :15:42.has strengthened the case for a second independence referendum, and

:15:43. > :15:45.the SNP have sought to build the case to have another independence

:15:46. > :15:51.referendum, possibly doubled the end of next year. On the other side of

:15:52. > :15:57.the debate, we had the Scottish Conservative leader, whose party has

:15:58. > :16:03.emerged as the main pro-union party in Scotland, and she was putting

:16:04. > :16:09.forward the point that we had a vote in 2014, people had their say, and

:16:10. > :16:11.that should be the end of it. The key challenge for Nicola Sturgeon is

:16:12. > :16:17.building support for another referendum. During the debate Nicola

:16:18. > :16:22.Sturgeon made the point that her opponent, especially the

:16:23. > :16:27.Conservatives, spend more time talking about independence than she

:16:28. > :16:32.does, and she cannot get a word in. What Nicola Sturgeon did tonight was

:16:33. > :16:36.concentrate much more on other issues, which are playing out quite

:16:37. > :16:44.big on the UK stage, like changes to the welfare system. What about

:16:45. > :16:47.domestic politics? In Edinburgh the SNP are in power, unlike

:16:48. > :16:57.Westminster, where the Conservatives are in power. It is interesting,

:16:58. > :17:01.occurs even though big issues like justice and health and education are

:17:02. > :17:11.devolved to Scotland, they still get heavily discussed in Westminster

:17:12. > :17:15.elections. One of the most poignant moments tonight came during a

:17:16. > :17:19.discussion about the state of health service and we heard from a lady in

:17:20. > :17:24.the audience who was a nurse talks about not having enough money to buy

:17:25. > :17:30.food, about being on strike, she did not become a nurse to be out on the

:17:31. > :17:35.picket line, and the coolest urgent answered by saying that the Scottish

:17:36. > :17:39.Government had put more money into the whole service in Scotland

:17:40. > :17:43.compared to the rest of the UK and have protected health budgets, and

:17:44. > :17:48.that is one of the key issues which has been playing out in this

:17:49. > :17:53.campaign between the Conservatives and the SNP and Labour and Liberal

:17:54. > :17:56.Democrats, that they are anti-austerity parties, but the

:17:57. > :17:59.goods server did say that they have to make cuts in order to pay for

:18:00. > :18:06.future public services. South Korea's new government says

:18:07. > :18:08.the latest missile test by North Korea has dashed its hopes

:18:09. > :18:11.of forging peace with its neighbour. Earlier, North Korea

:18:12. > :18:13.launched what appeared to be a ballistic missile,

:18:14. > :18:15.a week after its last The South Korean military says it

:18:16. > :18:19.travelled around 500 kilometres This would be the tenth detected

:18:20. > :18:24.missile launch this year. It was launched from Pukchang,

:18:25. > :18:27.that's near Pyongyang, There's a game of bluff

:18:28. > :18:38.going on now, where you remember a month ago, President Trump used

:18:39. > :18:44.the word "armada" about the warships coming to this region, to deal

:18:45. > :18:50.with the provocation from Pyongyang. We've had two missile launches

:18:51. > :18:55.in a week, and by all accounts both of them have been successful

:18:56. > :19:02.and have demonstrated substantial Both these missiles,

:19:03. > :19:08.on the account of the military in Japan and South Korea,

:19:09. > :19:12.have travelled hundreds The one a week ago, outside experts

:19:13. > :19:20.reckon that it could, if it was reliable, hit US bases

:19:21. > :19:29.in the western Pacific. Nobody thinks, apart

:19:30. > :19:31.from Kim Jong-un, that North Korea has the ability to hit

:19:32. > :19:33.the continental United States at the moment, certainly not with

:19:34. > :19:37.a missile with a nuclear warhead. But pretty well all the outside

:19:38. > :19:41.experts think that advances are being made pretty quickly,

:19:42. > :19:46.and that he does have the ability to If you look for political

:19:47. > :19:52.significance in the timing, there was a bit of a gap in testing

:19:53. > :19:55.while the elections And a sceptic or a cynic would say

:19:56. > :20:03.that's because the leading contender, who actually won,

:20:04. > :20:07.was somebody who wanted much more That President now has a task,

:20:08. > :20:21.because he says, "Let's talk," but there's no sign of a favourable

:20:22. > :20:24.response from the North. A British mountaineer has confirmed

:20:25. > :20:26.that a famous feature near the summit of Mount Everest,

:20:27. > :20:28.the Hillary Step, This could make scaling the world's

:20:29. > :20:32.highest peak even more dangerous. Last year, pictures seemed

:20:33. > :20:35.to show the near-vertical 12-metre rocky outcrop,

:20:36. > :20:38.named after the first person to scale the mountain,

:20:39. > :20:39.Sir Edmund Hillary, Meanwhile, an Indian mountaineer

:20:40. > :20:43.is said to have reached the summit of Mount Everest for the second time

:20:44. > :20:46.in less than a week. 37-year-old Anshu Jamsenpa

:20:47. > :20:48.made her first successful After a short rest she then turned

:20:49. > :20:54.around to repeat the feat today. Her expedition team says she's set

:20:55. > :20:58.a women's record for a double ascent of the world's highest mountain

:20:59. > :21:02.in a single season. Earlier, I spoke to Tsering Wange,

:21:03. > :21:06.the husband of Anshu Jamsenpa, and asked him how she is feeling

:21:07. > :21:12.after the two ascents. Well, I had the opportunity to speak

:21:13. > :21:15.to her at 2:30 Indian standard time today,

:21:16. > :21:19.as she was coming down from the Mount Everest

:21:20. > :21:23.peak towards the camp And when I spoke to her,

:21:24. > :21:30.she was in good health, she was very happy,

:21:31. > :21:32.she was descending. To make that ascent not once

:21:33. > :21:37.but twice is beyond the imagination It was her plan to do

:21:38. > :21:48.a double ascent, twice. Once, she did it in 2011,

:21:49. > :21:54.and 2014 she was at the base camp when an avalanche happened and 16

:21:55. > :21:58.mountaineers got killed, 2015, she again went,

:21:59. > :22:04.again unfortunately there was an earthquake in Nepal,

:22:05. > :22:10.followed by an avalanche. Again, there was more casualties,

:22:11. > :22:12.around 32 mountaineers died, and she had to,

:22:13. > :22:15.again, return back. So for the last three years

:22:16. > :22:18.she has been trying, What an achievement.

:22:19. > :22:32.Let's get the sport now. Real Madrid have won their first

:22:33. > :22:35.Spanish league title since 2012 after a 2-0 win away to Malaga,

:22:36. > :22:38.meaning they finish three points clear of Barcelona in second place,

:22:39. > :22:42.after they came from behind to win Cristiano Ronaldo scored his 25th

:22:43. > :22:46.in the Primera Division this season, which came in just

:22:47. > :22:48.the second minute. And then ten minutes

:22:49. > :22:49.after the interval, Karim Benzema confirmed the win,

:22:50. > :22:54.as Real lifted the title for the 33rd time, as they remain

:22:55. > :22:57.on course for a domestic league The team who Real will play

:22:58. > :23:01.in the Champions League final in just under a fortnight's time

:23:02. > :23:03.is Juventus, who also The Italian's were 3-0

:23:04. > :23:07.winners over Crotone, as they remain on course

:23:08. > :23:09.for the treble of domestic league Goals from Mario Mandzukic,

:23:10. > :23:14.Paolo Dybala and Sandro were enough for Massimilliano Allegri's team

:23:15. > :23:17.handing them a sixth successive Arsenal have missed out

:23:18. > :23:23.on qualifying for the Champions League for the first time in 20

:23:24. > :23:26.years despite a 3-1 Arsene Wenger's side failed to make

:23:27. > :23:31.it into the top four, missing out by a point,

:23:32. > :23:33.meaning they'll play in European football's

:23:34. > :23:34.secondary competition, the Europa League,

:23:35. > :23:49.in the next campaign. We had a spell during the season

:23:50. > :23:56.where it was the fickle. My situation was an influence at some

:23:57. > :23:59.stage on the group as well. We played in a hostile environment for

:24:00. > :24:05.the second part of the season, that did not help. Overall, I believe the

:24:06. > :24:09.players came back in a very strong togetherness in the last two months

:24:10. > :24:14.and responded exceptionally well. I am very proud of them in the last

:24:15. > :24:16.two months, they have shown exceptional strength.

:24:17. > :24:18.Arsenal miss out, meaning Liverpool return to the top European table

:24:19. > :24:21.for the first time in three years because of a 3-0 win over

:24:22. > :24:25.It meant they hung on to fourth position, with Manchester City

:24:26. > :24:28.Chelsea may have won the Premier League title

:24:29. > :24:31.more than a week ago, but they finally got their hands

:24:32. > :24:34.on the trophy on a day that John Terry announced he was retiring

:24:35. > :24:37.Antonio Conte, in his first season at Stamford Bridge,

:24:38. > :24:40.saw his side become the first English team to register 30

:24:41. > :24:45.top-flight victories in a 38-game season.

:24:46. > :24:48.The Blues sealed their sixth top-flight title on an emotional day

:24:49. > :24:50.for the 36-year-old captain, who held aloft his 15th major trophy

:24:51. > :24:57.World number two Novak Djokovic has announced that eight-time Grand Slam

:24:58. > :25:00.champion Andre Agassi will be his coach for the French
