The Trump administration says it's
given no concessions to North Korea | 0:00:13 | 0:00:16 | |
over the agreement
on a summit with Kim Jong-un. | 0:00:16 | 0:00:18 | |
South Korea's President thanks
Donald Trump for accepting | 0:00:18 | 0:00:20 | |
the offer, but could it prove to be

actions that match the words and

A former US drug company executive
who became infamous for hiking the | 0:00:47 | 0:00:52 | |
price of a life-saving medicine has
been sentenced to seven years in | 0:00:52 | 0:00:56 | |
prison. | 0:00:56 | 0:01:04 | |
Hello, and welcome
to World News Today. | 0:01:04 | 0:01:09 | |
Let's talk - | 0:01:09 | 0:01:14 | |
the offer from North
Korea was simple. | 0:01:14 | 0:01:16 | |
The reaction from
Washington, unexpected. | 0:01:16 | 0:01:17 | |
And now the reaction from around
the world to the promise of face | 0:01:17 | 0:01:20 | |
to face talks between the leaders
of the two countries - | 0:01:20 | 0:01:23 | |
has been overwhelmingly positive. | 0:01:23 | 0:01:24 | |
At the opening of the Paralympic
Games in South Korea, President Moon | 0:01:24 | 0:01:27 | |
thanked the two leaders for a step
which he said was already helping | 0:01:27 | 0:01:30 | |
to realise a new global peace. | 0:01:30 | 0:01:36 | |
Elsewhere, President Xi Jinping
of China spoke with | 0:01:36 | 0:01:38 | |
his US counterpart in a phone call,
praising the "positive aspiration" | 0:01:38 | 0:01:40 | |
of the talks and urging them
to begin as soon as possible. | 0:01:40 | 0:01:45 | |
Meanwhile US Vice-President Mike
Pence, who recently travelled | 0:01:45 | 0:01:48 | |
to South Korea, was quick to point
out that his administration had made | 0:01:48 | 0:01:51 | |
no concessions in order
to secure the talks - | 0:01:51 | 0:01:53 | |
but rather it was North Korea
who caved in by agreeing to discuss | 0:01:53 | 0:01:56 | |
giving up its nuclear programme,
and halt all nuclear | 0:01:56 | 0:02:00 | |
and missile tests. | 0:02:00 | 0:02:04 | |
Our North America correspondent Nick
Bryant has the latest on the story. | 0:02:04 | 0:02:12 | |
Last night, the White House felt
more like the Twilight Zone, | 0:02:12 | 0:02:14 | |
Donald Trump slipping into the press
briefing room unannounced | 0:02:14 | 0:02:17 | |
to tell reporters to expect
a major announcement. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:19 | |
And then out from the West Wing came
a delegation from South Korea, | 0:02:19 | 0:02:22 | |
to make one of the most stunning
diplomatic statements in decades, | 0:02:22 | 0:02:26 | |
after delivering to Donald Trump
a message from Kim Jong-un. | 0:02:26 | 0:02:29 | |
He expressed his eagerness to meet
President Trump as soon as possible. | 0:02:29 | 0:02:36 | |
President Trump appreciated
the briefing and said | 0:02:36 | 0:02:41 | |
he would meet Kim Jong-un by May | 0:02:41 | 0:02:44 | |
to achieve permanent
denuclearisation. | 0:02:44 | 0:02:49 | |
Prior to arriving in Washington,
they'd held a meeting in Pyongyang, | 0:02:49 | 0:02:52 | |
with Kim Jong-un
offering a warm hand | 0:02:52 | 0:02:54 | |
of friendship, rather
than rattling his usual sabre. | 0:02:54 | 0:03:00 | |
And on state TV, the schmaltzy
soundtrack doubled as diplomatic | 0:03:00 | 0:03:03 | |
mood music as the North Korean
leader offered to abandon | 0:03:03 | 0:03:06 | |
his nuclear arsenal in return
for security guarantees | 0:03:06 | 0:03:10 | |
from the United States. | 0:03:10 | 0:03:14 | |
Then came the sentimental farewell,
Kim Jong-un sending them off not | 0:03:14 | 0:03:17 | |
just with a wave but an invitation
to Mr Trump, the most | 0:03:17 | 0:03:20 | |
improbable overture. | 0:03:20 | 0:03:25 | |
Donald Trump gave his
response on Twitter: | 0:03:25 | 0:03:27 | |
The White House claims his
tough talk has worked. | 0:03:35 | 0:03:39 | |
They will be met with fire and fury
like the world has never seen. | 0:03:39 | 0:03:45 | |
Rocket man is on a suicide mission
for himself and for his regime. | 0:03:45 | 0:03:52 | |
Washington has been in a whirlwind,
taken by surprise. | 0:03:52 | 0:03:56 | |
Shortly before the shock
announcement, America's chief | 0:03:56 | 0:03:58 | |
diplomat ruled out direct
talks with Pyongyang. | 0:03:58 | 0:04:02 | |
In terms of direct talks
with the United States | 0:04:02 | 0:04:04 | |
and US negotiations,
we are a long way from negotiations. | 0:04:04 | 0:04:14 | |
This is a huge gamble
that offers Pyongyang | 0:04:17 | 0:04:19 | |
a propaganda coup without much | 0:04:19 | 0:04:23 | |
diplomatic groundwork
and without a guarantee of success. | 0:04:23 | 0:04:25 | |
But President Trump's
predecessors have failed to halt | 0:04:25 | 0:04:27 | |
North Korea's nuclear programme,
so perhaps it is worth this | 0:04:27 | 0:04:30 | |
dramatic new gesture. | 0:04:30 | 0:04:31 | |
Two combustible leaders dealing
with potentially the world's | 0:04:31 | 0:04:33 | |
most combustible problem. | 0:04:33 | 0:04:34 | |
Diplomacy like a Las Vegas title
fight, the international | 0:04:34 | 0:04:36 | |
summit of the century. | 0:04:37 | 0:04:46 | |
A short while ago the White House
gave a press briefing saying the | 0:04:49 | 0:04:54 | |
offer of drums is down to President
Trump's campaign of sanctions | 0:04:54 | 0:05:00 | |
against North Korea. We know the
pressure campaign has been effective | 0:05:00 | 0:05:06 | |
and has put a lot of pressure on
North Korea and they have made major | 0:05:06 | 0:05:13 | |
promises to denuclearisation to stop
nuclear and missile testing and they | 0:05:13 | 0:05:18 | |
have recognised that regular
military exercises between the US | 0:05:18 | 0:05:24 | |
and South Korea will continue. We're
not going to step back and make any | 0:05:24 | 0:05:30 | |
changes to that campaign, we will
continue that effort and we will not | 0:05:30 | 0:05:35 | |
have this meeting take place until
we see concrete actions that match | 0:05:35 | 0:05:39 | |
the of North Korea. Britain has
drafted in the military following a | 0:05:39 | 0:05:51 | |
nerve agent attack on a former
Russian spy and his daughter in | 0:05:51 | 0:05:54 | |
Salisbury. Sergei Skripal and his
daughter Yulia are critically ill in | 0:05:54 | 0:06:00 | |
hospital while the policeman who
tried to help them remains in a | 0:06:00 | 0:06:04 | |
serious condition. | 0:06:04 | 0:06:10 | |
Tonight, five days after
unprotected police officers, | 0:06:10 | 0:06:11 | |
paramedics and passers-by came
into close contact with a chemical | 0:06:11 | 0:06:14 | |
weapon, the military arrived
at Salisbury Hospital. | 0:06:14 | 0:06:16 | |
The mission - to recover evidence. | 0:06:16 | 0:06:18 | |
At the hospital, they
were taking away a car. | 0:06:18 | 0:06:20 | |
They are also expected to secure
Sergei Skripal's car, | 0:06:20 | 0:06:22 | |
and there are ambulances which may
have traces of the nerve agent | 0:06:22 | 0:06:25 | |
used in the attempt on his life. | 0:06:25 | 0:06:28 | |
The military will go in the area,
probably in protective equipment. | 0:06:28 | 0:06:32 | |
They have detection equipment that
will allow them to properly, | 0:06:32 | 0:06:36 | |
safely do a detailed survey
of the areas and if there is any | 0:06:36 | 0:06:41 | |
contamination they can safely remove
that and have it destroyed. | 0:06:41 | 0:06:45 | |
Tonight, there was renewed police
activity at the grave | 0:06:45 | 0:06:48 | |
of Sergei Skripal's son,
Alexander, who died last year. | 0:06:48 | 0:06:53 | |
It has been suggested his
body may be exhumed. | 0:06:53 | 0:06:57 | |
The Home Secretary was the first
senior government representative | 0:06:57 | 0:07:00 | |
to visit Salisbury this morning. | 0:07:00 | 0:07:03 | |
Ministers have stressed
the importance of getting | 0:07:03 | 0:07:06 | |
to the bottom of the alleged plot
before pointing fingers. | 0:07:06 | 0:07:08 | |
Give us time, Amber Rudd said. | 0:07:08 | 0:07:11 | |
She met and praised those who have
helped victims and decontaminated | 0:07:11 | 0:07:15 | |
the area, including firefighters. | 0:07:15 | 0:07:18 | |
I am in awe of their sympathetic
approach and professionalism | 0:07:18 | 0:07:22 | |
as they engage with these people. | 0:07:22 | 0:07:24 | |
And now as they reflect,
they are concerned sometimes | 0:07:24 | 0:07:28 | |
for themselves and their families
but they have all said to me | 0:07:28 | 0:07:31 | |
that they would not have done
anything differently. | 0:07:31 | 0:07:35 | |
And then to the hospital continuing
to provide the highest level | 0:07:35 | 0:07:38 | |
of care to the victims. | 0:07:38 | 0:07:41 | |
Detective Sergeant Nick Bailey,
exposed to nerve agent | 0:07:41 | 0:07:43 | |
during the incident,
is making good progress. | 0:07:43 | 0:07:45 | |
His friends await news. | 0:07:45 | 0:07:48 | |
Always really easy to speak to,
to get hold of, always delivers. | 0:07:48 | 0:07:54 | |
And he delivers effectively
and efficiently. | 0:07:54 | 0:07:58 | |
He always has a sense
of humour around him. | 0:07:58 | 0:08:01 | |
He does it easily and nothing
is ever too much trouble for him. | 0:08:01 | 0:08:06 | |
Sergei Skripal remains
in critical condition - | 0:08:06 | 0:08:11 | |
his daughter, Yulia, the same,
but she is responding | 0:08:11 | 0:08:13 | |
better to treatment. | 0:08:13 | 0:08:14 | |
The investigation has become part
of life in central Salisbury. | 0:08:14 | 0:08:19 | |
Everybody is scared a little bit. | 0:08:19 | 0:08:21 | |
Hopefully everything is all right
in the next couple of days. | 0:08:21 | 0:08:24 | |
Your T-shirt says it all. | 0:08:24 | 0:08:27 | |
Calm is exactly how
people have remained. | 0:08:27 | 0:08:32 | |
Do you feel concerned? | 0:08:32 | 0:08:34 | |
No, otherwise I wouldn't be
here and I certainly | 0:08:34 | 0:08:36 | |
would not bring my son. | 0:08:36 | 0:08:39 | |
Some worry that Salisbury
will become known for this shocking | 0:08:39 | 0:08:42 | |
event, but life will move on. | 0:08:42 | 0:08:51 | |
I'm not saying it will blow
over, it will always | 0:08:51 | 0:08:54 | |
be there but the town,
the city, | 0:08:54 | 0:08:56 | |
there is so much love here,
I don't think that would happen. | 0:08:56 | 0:08:58 | |
For now, at least, central Salisbury
remains the scene of a crime | 0:08:58 | 0:09:01 | |
reverberating around the world. | 0:09:01 | 0:09:11 | |
The German Chancellor has warned
that no one could win | 0:09:13 | 0:09:16 | |
in what she called a "race
to the bottom", amid concerns that | 0:09:16 | 0:09:19 | |
heavy new US tariffs on steel
and aluminium could launch | 0:09:19 | 0:09:21 | |
a global trade war. | 0:09:21 | 0:09:22 | |
Angela Merkel said it would be best
if the European Union was exempted. | 0:09:22 | 0:09:25 | |
The EU is seeking
talks on the issue. | 0:09:25 | 0:09:33 | |
A visit to the UK by the Saudi Crown
prince has ended with a massive arms | 0:09:34 | 0:09:38 | |
deal. Saudi Arabia has agreed to buy
48 Typhoon jets. Human rights groups | 0:09:38 | 0:09:49 | |
protested against the visit. | 0:09:49 | 0:09:59 | |
Kenya's president and opposition
leader have met for the first time | 0:10:02 | 0:10:04 | |
since last year's bitterly contested
election. | 0:10:04 | 0:10:09 | |
In a surprise move, Uhuru Kenyatta
and Raila Odinga called | 0:10:09 | 0:10:12 | |
each other "brothers". | 0:10:12 | 0:10:14 | |
An aid convoy which entered
a besieged rebel enclave | 0:10:14 | 0:10:16 | |
on the outskirts of the Syrian
capital has crossed back | 0:10:16 | 0:10:18 | |
into government held-territory. | 0:10:18 | 0:10:20 | |
13 trucks carrying food
were unloaded in Eastern Ghouta, | 0:10:20 | 0:10:22 | |
before heading back to Damascus. | 0:10:22 | 0:10:23 | |
This is the emergency aid convoy
inside Eastern Ghouta today. | 0:10:23 | 0:10:26 | |
According to the ICRC,
it came dangerously close | 0:10:26 | 0:10:28 | |
to the firing line. | 0:10:28 | 0:10:29 | |
The convoy was meant to deliver
food supplies on Monday, | 0:10:29 | 0:10:32 | |
but was forced to leave
because of ongoing fighting. | 0:10:32 | 0:10:36 | |
Opposition activists say
about a thousand people have been | 0:10:36 | 0:10:38 | |
killed in air strikes and shelling
in just two weeks. | 0:10:38 | 0:10:48 | |

Has called the war in Syria at
colossal human tragedy. I spoke to | 0:10:59 | 0:11:02 | |
him earlier. | 0:11:02 | 0:11:04 | |
You know what is tragic about Syria? | 0:11:04 | 0:11:06 | |
There was a time when people fled
outside the country, | 0:11:06 | 0:11:13 | |
there was a time, there
is still a time, when people | 0:11:13 | 0:11:16 | |
flee within the country. | 0:11:16 | 0:11:17 | |
But for people trapped
in Eastern Ghouta, the people | 0:11:17 | 0:11:22 | |
we reached today, there is no
option to stay or flee. | 0:11:22 | 0:11:25 | |
How much worse can it
get get for a civilian? | 0:11:25 | 0:11:27 | |
This is one of the most
tragic situations | 0:11:27 | 0:11:29 | |
we've seen in a long time
from a humanitarian perspective. | 0:11:29 | 0:11:35 | |
As you rightly outline,
as we have said, over 1 billion | 0:11:35 | 0:11:41 | |
Syrian refugees are in Lebanon. | 0:11:41 | 0:11:43 | |
To what extent are the refugees
in camps or in urban areas, | 0:11:43 | 0:11:47 | |
and what extent is Lebanon
receiving support for them? | 0:11:47 | 0:11:49 | |
They are mostly in urban centres,
Beirut and other cities. | 0:11:49 | 0:11:54 | |
And in makeshift settlements. | 0:11:54 | 0:11:57 | |
They are not in organised camps. | 0:11:57 | 0:12:00 | |
They share, largely,
the resources of | 0:12:00 | 0:12:01 | |
the local community. | 0:12:01 | 0:12:04 | |
They go to Lebanese schools,
those that go to school. | 0:12:04 | 0:12:11 | |
They find work in agriculture
or construction, | 0:12:11 | 0:12:13 | |
it's a very meagre existence. | 0:12:13 | 0:12:14 | |
The international community
has helped, but what we | 0:12:14 | 0:12:18 | |
are worried about is the persistence
of the Syrian crisis with the | 0:12:18 | 0:12:24 | |
difficulties people have to return
to make the decision to return | 0:12:24 | 0:12:30 | |
is premature, they won't
go back right now. | 0:12:30 | 0:12:33 | |
That support to Lebanon and other
host countries, Jordan, | 0:12:33 | 0:12:35 | |
Turkey and others, that
support must continue. | 0:12:35 | 0:12:37 | |
We must not lower the guard,
we must stay the course, | 0:12:37 | 0:12:40 | |
until the crisis is resolved. | 0:12:40 | 0:12:47 | |
So there is not much prospect
of those refugees returning | 0:12:47 | 0:12:49 | |
in the near future? | 0:12:49 | 0:12:50 | |
You know, they watch the media,
just like us, and they see | 0:12:50 | 0:12:55 | |
what's happening in Eastern Ghouta. | 0:12:55 | 0:12:59 | |
This is on the outskirts
of Damascus, the capital. | 0:12:59 | 0:13:07 | |
They see what's happening
in Idlib, in other | 0:13:07 | 0:13:09 | |
unstable areas. | 0:13:09 | 0:13:10 | |
If you asked them about their
future, they see their | 0:13:10 | 0:13:15 | |
future back in their country, 89% of
surveyed refugees said they want to | 0:13:15 | 0:13:18 | |
eventually return but not right now. | 0:13:18 | 0:13:21 | |
It's too unstable, too dangerous,
there are too many risks. | 0:13:21 | 0:13:29 | |

The Trump administration says it's

over the agreement
on a summit with Kim Jong-un. | 0:15:06 | 0:15:13 | |
Britain has deployed its military
onto the streets of Salisbury to | 0:15:13 | 0:15:18 | |
help investigate the suspected
poisoning of a former spy. Martin | 0:15:18 | 0:15:24 | |
Shkreli is the former drug company
exec who upped the price of a | 0:15:24 | 0:15:29 | |
life-saving AIDS medication and has
been sentenced to seven years in | 0:15:29 | 0:15:37 | |
prison. He first made headlines for
jacking up that price of a drug from | 0:15:37 | 0:15:44 | |
$13 per dose to 750. He has been
convicted for defrauding investors | 0:15:44 | 0:15:50 | |
into hedge funds is he ran. The
judge said his crimes were not | 0:15:50 | 0:15:56 | |
isolated lapses in judgment but a
pattern in conduct. He was reviled | 0:15:56 | 0:16:04 | |
by many Americans. Yes, he was
called the most hated man in America | 0:16:04 | 0:16:13 | |
after his company rate the drug
price there for that life-saving HIV | 0:16:13 | 0:16:17 | |
medication and he became known as
the poster child of the | 0:16:17 | 0:16:23 | |
pharmaceutical industry. This was a
time when the price gouging in the | 0:16:23 | 0:16:29 | |
pharmaceutical industry was being
criticised and he came to represent | 0:16:29 | 0:16:33 | |
that greed, so he cultivated the
spur some of an arrogant, no car in | 0:16:33 | 0:16:39 | |
the world executive, and there were
several points where he would mock | 0:16:39 | 0:16:46 | |
politicians and people who
criticised him come in a | 0:16:46 | 0:16:50 | |
congressional hearing on drug price
hikes, he was yawning and calling | 0:16:50 | 0:16:55 | |
congressional members imbecile is,
so he gained this reputation and the | 0:16:55 | 0:17:00 | |
judge said that this person didn't
have anything to do with the | 0:17:00 | 0:17:06 | |
sentencing she handed down and we
saw some different portrayals of | 0:17:06 | 0:17:12 | |
Martin Shkreli by the defence and
prosecutors. It wasn't price hiking | 0:17:12 | 0:17:17 | |
for which he was convicted. He was
convicted for defrauding investments | 0:17:17 | 0:17:24 | |
into hedge funds is and then another
pharmaceutical company. The | 0:17:24 | 0:17:29 | |
prosecutor said he should be looked
at as a 35-year-old man who was a | 0:17:29 | 0:17:36 | |
fraudster because he misled
investors about the performance of | 0:17:36 | 0:17:40 | |
those hedge funds is and ultimately
did pay them back plus profit for | 0:17:40 | 0:17:45 | |
what they invested, but prosecutors
said that was only because they had | 0:17:45 | 0:17:50 | |
raised red flags that they were
being defrauded but his defence | 0:17:50 | 0:17:54 | |
tried to use that to get a lighter
sentence, saying he was a | 0:17:54 | 0:18:00 | |
self-destructive person who showed
depression so they tried to pull at | 0:18:00 | 0:18:04 | |
the heartstrings of the judge but
the judge went | 0:18:04 | 0:18:17 | |
for a self-destructive person who
showed depression so they tried to | 0:18:18 | 0:18:20 | |
pull at the heartstrings of the
judge but did judge when 487 year | 0:18:20 | 0:18:23 | |
sentence, the maximum could have
been 25, so it was lighter than | 0:18:23 | 0:18:25 | |
prosecutors hope for. Thank you.
It is the penultimate weekend of the | 0:18:25 | 0:18:28 | |
Six Nations but the Ireland captain
Rory Best say they will not be | 0:18:28 | 0:18:34 | |
distracted by thoughts of a possible
Grand Slam as they aim to make it | 0:18:34 | 0:18:39 | |
four wins in four by beating
Scotland. John Watson is in Dublin. | 0:18:39 | 0:18:47 | |
The stage is set for what could be a
crucial weekend in Rugby Union Six | 0:18:47 | 0:18:54 | |
Nations championship. Ireland play
Scotland here tomorrow, knowing a | 0:18:54 | 0:18:59 | |
victory and a defeat for England in
France would see Ireland become Six | 0:18:59 | 0:19:05 | |
Nations champions, their third title
in five years. Colin McGregor used | 0:19:05 | 0:19:10 | |
to play for Scotland, what chances
that Ireland will have this wrapped | 0:19:10 | 0:19:15 | |
up? The fact they are at home, they
have not lost a Six Nations game | 0:19:15 | 0:19:22 | |
here under Joe Schmidt, they have
one 19 of their last 20 games here. | 0:19:22 | 0:19:30 | |
Scotland have to be buoyed by the
fact that they ruined England's | 0:19:30 | 0:19:34 | |
Grand Slam chances last time out,
they are full of confidence but this | 0:19:34 | 0:19:40 | |
Irish team is a mighty tough
challenge. And add to the mix the | 0:19:40 | 0:19:45 | |
fact that Scotland don't travel away
from home especially well, their | 0:19:45 | 0:19:50 | |
last away win, away from Rome, Italy
always seem to be the easy team to | 0:19:50 | 0:19:58 | |
beat, but Scotland's last I win --
away win came in eight years ago. | 0:19:58 | 0:20:07 | |
All teams struggle. Scotland have
the comforts of Murrayfield, the | 0:20:07 | 0:20:12 | |
crowd get behind them, last time
they started well against England, | 0:20:12 | 0:20:18 | |
the momentum grew, they became
louder so they have to start well | 0:20:18 | 0:20:23 | |
again and tried to quieten the road
and put doubt in this Irish team. | 0:20:23 | 0:20:29 | |
Ireland are so good at dominating
possession and they are ruthless | 0:20:29 | 0:20:33 | |
with their efficiency so it will be
tough for Scotland and for England, | 0:20:33 | 0:20:39 | |
these away games are incredibly
challenging but Scotland have to | 0:20:39 | 0:20:43 | |
come here full of confidence and
perform as well as they can. It will | 0:20:43 | 0:20:50 | |
be fascinating to watch. If Ireland
can get past Scotland, and it is | 0:20:50 | 0:20:55 | |
that upset in Paris with England
losing to France, it will be another | 0:20:55 | 0:21:00 | |
Six Nations title for Ireland, but
as far as Scotland go, away from | 0:21:00 | 0:21:06 | |
Rome they have only had two wins in
the Six Nations but their last away | 0:21:06 | 0:21:13 | |
win was here in Dublin eight years
ago. Hopefully that may play in | 0:21:13 | 0:21:18 | |
their favour tomorrow.
Pep Guardiola has been fined and | 0:21:18 | 0:21:25 | |
warned about his future conduct by
the English Football Association for | 0:21:25 | 0:21:31 | |
wearing a yellow ribbon in support
of imprisoned politicians in his | 0:21:31 | 0:21:36 | |
native Catalonia. | 0:21:36 | 0:21:43 | |
He admitted the charge
of wearing a political | 0:21:43 | 0:21:45 | |
message after it was seen
in the cup tie at Wigan. | 0:21:45 | 0:21:51 | |
He can only wear it
pre-and post match. | 0:21:51 | 0:21:52 | |
He understands it does break
FA rules and he will | 0:21:52 | 0:21:56 | |
no longer wear it on the touchline. | 0:21:56 | 0:22:01 | |
South Africa have the upper hand at
Port Elizabeth. David Warner was the | 0:22:01 | 0:22:08 | |
top scorer with 63 as the tourists
made 243. They will resume today to | 0:22:08 | 0:22:15 | |
204 runs behind. Australia leads the
series 1-0. That is all the sport. | 0:22:15 | 0:22:35 | |
Women in some Muslim
countries, like Iran, | 0:22:35 | 0:22:36 | |
are campaigning against it
as a symbol of oppression. | 0:22:36 | 0:22:39 | |
But in Britain some women
are taking the opposite view, | 0:22:39 | 0:22:41 | |
seeing it as empowering. | 0:22:41 | 0:22:42 | |
Nomia Iqbal investigates. | 0:22:42 | 0:22:43 | |
The spotlight is on the Hijab. | 0:22:43 | 0:22:45 | |
Many Muslim women choose
to wear it proudly. | 0:22:45 | 0:22:48 | |
For some, it's an act of modesty. | 0:22:48 | 0:22:50 | |
For others, in countries like Iran,
forced to wear it, it's a symbol | 0:22:50 | 0:22:54 | |
to remove in protest. | 0:22:54 | 0:23:00 | |
It may divide opinion,
but the hijab is going high fashion. | 0:23:00 | 0:23:05 | |
20-year-old model Shahira Yusuf has
been signed up by Storm, | 0:23:05 | 0:23:08 | |
the agency that found
supermodel Kate Moss. | 0:23:08 | 0:23:13 | |
Shahira is one of the first
British models with a hijab | 0:23:13 | 0:23:16 | |
taking to the catwalk. | 0:23:16 | 0:23:19 | |
Yeah, definitely don't want to be
considered a token girl. | 0:23:19 | 0:23:24 | |
I don't want these models
like ethnic models or models | 0:23:24 | 0:23:26 | |
from different religious backgrounds
to just pave the way, | 0:23:26 | 0:23:29 | |
I want the way to stay there,
become the norm within society. | 0:23:29 | 0:23:32 | |
Because it is the norm outside
of the modelling sphere. | 0:23:32 | 0:23:38 | |
Shahira is becoming
the face of Modest Fashion. | 0:23:40 | 0:23:44 | |
At the show in London,
Muslim designers have come | 0:23:44 | 0:23:46 | |
from all over the world
to promote their clothes. | 0:23:46 | 0:23:49 | |
The market for Modest Fashion
is on course to be worth billions. | 0:23:49 | 0:23:53 | |
I grew up in a Muslim family
and none of the the women | 0:23:53 | 0:23:56 | |
in my family wore the hijab. | 0:23:56 | 0:23:58 | |
None of my Muslim
friends wore it either. | 0:23:58 | 0:24:00 | |
But now, more and more young
women are wearing it. | 0:24:00 | 0:24:04 | |
The reason why I wear
it is to number one, cover my hair. | 0:24:04 | 0:24:11 | |
And number two, to be honest,
I actually enjoy wearing the hijab, | 0:24:11 | 0:24:14 | |
I enjoy covering my hair,
I enjoy the hijabs I have today | 0:24:14 | 0:24:17 | |
I feel like it makes a statement. | 0:24:17 | 0:24:19 | |
It's part of who I am,
it's my crown. | 0:24:19 | 0:24:21 | |
Hijab to me is empowerment and it's
feminism and it's taking | 0:24:21 | 0:24:24 | |
control and ownership
of what I choose | 0:24:24 | 0:24:25 | |
to show to the world. | 0:24:25 | 0:24:27 | |
Being online has given some women
a powerful platform. | 0:24:27 | 0:24:31 | |
Social media star Mariah Idrissi has
a huge following on Instagram. | 0:24:31 | 0:24:34 | |
The hijab is a part of me,
it's part of my career | 0:24:34 | 0:24:37 | |
and its representation. | 0:24:37 | 0:24:38 | |
You know, we shouldn't be ashamed
or shy to represent who we are. | 0:24:38 | 0:24:42 | |
If you are a model wearing a hijab,
and you're on Instagram and having | 0:24:42 | 0:24:46 | |
thousands of people following you,
aren't you doing the opposite | 0:24:46 | 0:24:49 | |
of what the hijab is
supposed to be about? | 0:24:49 | 0:24:52 | |
The mainstream media,
western media isn't | 0:24:52 | 0:24:54 | |
representing Muslims on TV,
in fashion, anywhere. | 0:24:54 | 0:24:58 | |
The only time we are represented
is for something bad. | 0:24:58 | 0:25:04 | |
I just saw this as, you know, I'm
going on the news and I'm talking | 0:25:04 | 0:25:08 | |
about something that's not
about terrorism, not | 0:25:08 | 0:25:10 | |
about women being oppressed,
I'm talking about fashion. | 0:25:10 | 0:25:13 | |
Some campaigners for Muslim women's
rights think the hijab's popularity | 0:25:13 | 0:25:16 | |
is a political statement. | 0:25:16 | 0:25:17 | |
They feel uneasy about its use
as an expression of identity. | 0:25:17 | 0:25:20 | |
Modest does not mean
you need to wear the hijab. | 0:25:20 | 0:25:23 | |
Modesty goes beyond that in your
behaviour and your way of dressing. | 0:25:23 | 0:25:31 | |
I don't need to prove to anybody
what I am, but in the hijab, | 0:25:31 | 0:25:35 | |
you are singling yourself
and proving something unnecessary, | 0:25:35 | 0:25:38 | |
especially in the Western world. | 0:25:38 | 0:25:42 | |
The hijab means different things
to different people. | 0:25:42 | 0:25:45 | |
Shahira believes you can wear it
and be a successful model. | 0:25:45 | 0:25:49 | |
