A safe landing they have already requested that an executive with the European Commission has already called out the Member States to show compassion and try and see if they can provide a solution with which these people can be taken on and given the opportunity to seek asylum in e. U. Member countries but of course this is all part of the process which has been happening in these islands here even though the interior minister met there salvini has said that he has banned these landings from taken place the reality of the of the matter is that they keep turning up while there are people who are desperate to try next skate the conditions that they found themselves in libya they will do anything they can always possible to try and find safety in the European Union country. Britains Prime Minister baraks johnson says hes confident that the u. K. Can leave the e. U. With a deal but only if the backstop is removed johnson has been holding talks with german chancellor Angela Merkel in berlin about stuff is designed to avoid a hard border between the Irish Republic and Northern Ireland if the u. K. And europe cant agree on a trading relationship after brics it but critics warn it could ultimately separate Northern Ireland from the rest of the u. K. We in the u. K. Want a deal we seek a deal and i believe that we can get what we can do this often does i think is that is the phrase but really. They clearly. We cannot we cannot accept the current Withdrawal Agreement arrangements that are the dividing the u. K. Or look us into the regular treaty trade the arrangements of the e. U. Legal order of the e. U. Without the u. K. Having any say on those matters so we do need that backstop removed that says the facts of this and what folks was its one of the backstop has always been a fallback position if one is able to solve this conundrum if one finds the solution and we said we would probably find it in the next 2 years to come but we can also maybe find it in the next 30 days then were one step further in the right direction and we obviously have to put our all into this. Risk a lot of dominic a news in berlin personally about cosigning cautiously positive there but is that 30 day timetable she suggested a realistic. Well thats the question when Boris Johnson heard her say that is response and the question came to him was well Angela Merkel seems to be seeking to set a blistering pace but that the United Kingdom would like to try to take that onto to work to that sort of shared sure but perhaps a more realistic one lauren would be the 31st of october the dates in shrines when braggs it will take place certainly thats what our strengths and once thats what the british Prime Minister wants but of course the devil is in the details because not just agreement needed between Great Britain and the federal public of germany but with all the other e. U. Member states as well and clearly the german perspective is that its sad that the United Kingdom wants to leave the Great Britain wants to leave the e. U. But it has to protect the cohesion of all the e. U. States and specifically of course that means the republic of ireland and how do you but germans view Boris Johnson. Well there is a very interesting question because on the face of it then the the welcome that angle americal off foods are as johnson was friendly was diplomatic and mr johnson said that he was moved by the scale of the welcome that he was offered but if you look a little and been beneath the surface as it were certainly amongst the political commentators amongst other Political Parties there is a degree of skepticism about mr johnson some. Particular magazines such as the should be go to very reputable magazine and others to have likened mr johnson to a clown and said that they dont see him as serious that he is chaotic indeed one analyst i spoke to in the last 24 hours also said look we perceive mr johnson if he is the candidate who said some of the things that he said and he is that as Prime Minister we cant really deal with him whereas if hes been playing a particular game where he can now be serious as Prime Minister well thats Something Else so the question frankly americal is what sort of Prime Minister is she dealing with is he the sort of Prime Minister that to resume a was or is he Something Else entirely different should be finding that out in the building behind me the chancellor rhee right now on the mccain thank you. More from london later in britain and i suspect you rolled into. Your as President Donald Trump as rebuff to the danish Prime Minister after she labeled his idea of selling greenland to the United States as absurd trump has now canceled his Upcoming Trip to denmark in september in retaliation for the commons the president says he demands respect for the United States now denmark i look forward to going but i thought that the Prime Ministers statement that it was absurd that was that it was an absurd idea was that the i thought it was an inappropriate statement all she had to do is say no we wouldnt be address that but we cant treat the United States of america the way they treated us under president obama i thought it was a very not nice way of saying something they could have dont mean no and the danish Prime Minister spoke earlier in copenhagen saying shes disappointed in trumps decision to call off his trip. At discussion has however been very gracious about a potential sale of greenland this has clearly been rejected by can keep us in a position that i share of course. This does not change the capture of our good relations. And we will of course from denmark continue our on going dialogue with the u. S. On how we can develop our cooperation and deal with the many common challenges we are facing ok lets bring in our White House CorrespondentKimberly Hall could kimberly as this was developing jurymen the last few hours and you and i were talking about it on air we were talking about the fact that a point seemed to be quite good natured but things seem to have taken a little bit of a change of direction. Yet this public rejection of his offer to or bid essentially to buy greenland behalf of the United States from denmark and the sort of the snub that he perceives in the rejection of that real estate deal as he sees it has really irked president travel not only did he repeatedly talk about it as he left the white house to head to the u. S. To pataki but he also has just taken to twitter talking about it once again well not naming the danish Prime Minister directly pointing out that denmark is behind in his view in its contributions to nato the sort of shared defense obligations that says that many nations have not been meeting for quite some time so this is really been an irritant to donald trump it certainly has caused some tension in the relationship a diplomatic rift in fact the u. S. President says that he felt the comments by the danish leader were nasty and that really the United States should have been shown more respect kimberly this is obviously a very public to between the 2 leaders but in diplomatic terms how important is the relationship between the u. S. And denmark particularly in relation to nato for example. Well this is a very important strategic relationship and thats what the focus of these september 2nd 3rd meetings that were so abruptly halted were really about and so this is the concern in all of this is that there is important defense cooperation conversations that need to take place that now will not happen a lot had been under way in terms of preparation and i think the white house was the surprised as the danish side when these 4 abruptly canceled by the president and. What many people dont realize is the danish territory of greenland actually has a very strategic importance to the United States there is an air base there that in fact house is part of the u. S. Ballistic missile Early Warning system the u. S. Air force uses it for Space Command north american 6 Aerospace Defense command is also operated partially out of there so there is a strategic interest in all of this for the United States but all of that has been brushed aside over the concerns by the u. S. President that he has been in some way publicly humiliated as a result of a suggestion of this real estate deal really protesters are back on the streets of hong kong after a sit in a train station diverse wearing black flooded into your own room station to commemorate be a time some protesters that happened. While those seize hold another demonstration front of the british consulate in hong kong there appealing for the release of consulate worker simon chang chinas foreign minister has confirmed he has been detained on the mainland the minister says he will spend 15 days in what it calls administrative detention john went missing or was nines while on a business trip to the city ocean sun well china hasnt provided for the details about the detention but its filed in ministry is urging the u. K. To to stop interfering. So you know. This u. K. Consulate employee is a hong kong citizen he is not a u. K. Citizen in other words that means hes chinese so its entirely in internal matter for china so with regard to the recent series of mistaken comments the u. K. Has made regarding Hong Kong China has openly expressed its stern position we want to once again urge the u. K. To stop making indiscreet remarks and stop stirring up trouble on the hong kong issue it. Has more from beijing. The ministry of Foreign Affairs here in beijing on wednesday confirming that some in chang is in detention something thats called Public SecurityAdministration Detention down in shin gen thats a border town just across from hong kong we know that part of this detention is 15 days they can be extended theres no indication that thats going to happen just yet we know maximum is at this stage 15 days so that should be a couple of days before simon has been released by the Police Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesman saying any details about the specific case need to come from the police themselves and kind of passing that off to them you know whats interesting he went on to say that he is a chinese national. So this is an internal matter and he said that theyve been irresponsible comments coming from the United Kingdom and officials there about this case and that they should just essentially saying mind their own business now this is kind of an ongoing theme with how the Chinese Administration has been handling with hong kong situation these protests over the last several weeks that theres been International Western meddling so obviously feeling this is an opportunity to make a comment about the situation with this detention and hold of the hominid was that the support for simon chang in hong kong. Salman chen is a hong kong or who holds a British National overseas passport about 3000000. 00 Home Congress have a similar passport we know from his girlfriend that all this he went to chen jane for a business trip and he was supposed to return that same day on his way back in the evening he was on a high speed train he exchanged several messages with his girlfriend the last one was around 10 pm in which she said that he was about to cross back into hong kong we also know from a Statement Issued from his family that he was held at the west train station it is actually on hong kong territory but it is manned by chinese immigration officials only shannys officials operates. In hong kong now this goes really right at the heart of what protesters have been calling for over the past 3 months that much contested extradition bill that they want to see with drone one of the protesters here will say this is it this could happen to any one of us being picked up by chinese officials and then we dont know what happens to us the family of the child simon chen says that they had they hired a lawyer in change and he went around 3 different Detention Centers but no sign of simon chen now the protesters here are actually in front of the british consulate because theyre calling on the u. K. Government to put pressure on both local bookstore just to try to resolve this issue and also to put pressure on the authorities in beijing to try to say where is.

The u. N. Special envoy to yemen Martin Griffith says arrived which is controlled by the rebels on tuesday griffiths told the Un Security Council that yemen was at risk of falling apart of an agreement to end the conflict was not found urgently. Human rights watch is drawing attention to a lesser known victim of yemens war fishing communities the rights Group Believes at least 47. 00 fishermen and children were killed in bombing attacks by the saudi and Iraqi Coalition last year it says another 100. 00 or so are detained in saudi arabia and some have been tortured in custody h. R. W. Also accuses the who the rebels of attacking commercial traffic in the red sea priyanka malta parties acting emergencies director of Human Rights Watch is joining us now from new york thank you very much for your time why is it that the fishermen are being affected in this way. As you know the red sea is a very contested border body of water at the moment you have Coalition Warships operating in it you have had who the vessel is attacking Coalition Vessels you have had a number of tankers including you know western or european tankers that have also faced incidents so it is a very militarized and heavily controlled body of water at the same time these fishermen come from some of the most impoverished communities in yemen these fish because this livelihood is their only means to survive which is why they keep going out to sea one could understand why tankers and military craft would be targeted but why would smaller craft like Fishing Vessels be affected and targeted in this way. Thats something that we really dont have good insight into and its something its a point on which the coalition does need to provide an answer in particular the attacks that we documented were very distinct there were certain patterns that emerged in many of them fishermen raised white pieces of cloth indicating that they were not a military threat that they were merely civilians that they surrendered to any military vessels that were approaching them they raise their hands above their heads they attempted to show the fish that they had caught all of which was to say they were indicating that they were civilians they were not a military target they were not any kind of threat and still we found that in multiple cases we documented 5 deadly attacks these fishermen were fired upon from helicopters from warships they were in some cases hit by air strikes and we have no understanding of why they were hit very clearly they were civilian targets hit in delivered attacks one could understand that this of course isnt just affecting the people on the fishing boats themselves its also affecting the communities that rely on those fishermen as well what do you what action do you think can be brought to try to. Force the coalition to return the fisherman are at least do not target them in this way. So in terms of the attacks 1st of all the coalition has repeatedly repeatedly told the International Community its International Partners in the u. K. In the u. S. It has told them that it is improving its targeting practices so that it will no longer take civilian lives these attacks are very dramatic examples of how that is not true in the attacks that we documented coalition ships pilots you know the people operating the guns could see the fisherman they were attacking nevertheless they went ahead with these attacks and what that tells us is that there are very little cost for Coalition Forces to take civilian lives in yemen that has to change in terms of the communities with the coalition can start doing is to investigate these incidents and provide compensation to either the victims or the families we found in all of the attacks that we documented we found in the one case in which families received any form of compensation it was not described as compensation it was called mere help or assistance to the families the last thing is that the communities are desperate to get back the breadwinners the men and the children who still remain and saudi Detention Centers theyve attempted to raise the profile of the issue theyve attempted to bring awareness to these cases and these individuals need to be either charged or released without delay and sent home burn care more to proceed from Human Rights Watch joining us from new york thank you very much indeed. 2 people have been killed in indian administered kashmir and the 1st gun battle between separatists and Security Forces since new delhi revoked its autonomy Indian Police say an officer and a rebel fighter were killed in the bottom of the district the Region Special status was scrapped earlier this month many parts is still under lockdown.
