while some reaction also coming up. pope francis holds an open air mass and buddhist majority of me and mark tens of thousands turn out for that he calls on the people of myanmar to embrace peace and reconciliation. on tackling migration the european union and the african union get together to work out how to deal with the flow of migrants from africa to europe. i'm brian thomas a very warm welcome to the show u.s. president doll trump says he will handle the latest ballistic missile test by north korea is claiming its twentieth launch this year is a new type of missile and some experts believe it could be capable of hitting any city in the united states. north korea claims it has become and you can't paula off to a low of over two months it has again finds an intercontinental ballistic missile one that flew at a much higher altitude then past launches before the. ending in the sea of japan to it. state media and now is the news they said the country's leader kim jong un declared with pride that now we have finally realized the greatest story course of completing the status nuclear force. young claims the new missile brings the whole u.s. mainland within its range a direct challenge to donald trump but this time the u.s. president's reaction was more muted than in the past after meeting with his secretary of defense trump refrained from issuing threats. we tell you will take care of it we have general national with us and we're going to discussion. it is a situation that we will handle. north korea's immediate neighbor was less restrained within minutes south korea responded by firing missiles into the sea to demonstrate its ability to strike pyongyang's launch sites the south korean president said the international community had no choice but to continue applying pressure and sanctions. vision action does not only increased tension on the korean peninsula but gravely endangers the international peace and security we strongly condemn north korea's reckless behavior. seoul has warned the situation could spiral out of control on wednesday the u.n. security council will hold an emergency meeting to discuss the situation. earlier i spoke with journalist jason strother in seoul south korea i asked him for his assessment of whether north korea was now capable of launching a new nuclear warhead at any target in the united states i mean based on what we heard on the north korean broadcast this afternoon it would seem that it has the capabilities and judging by the tone that president trump general mattis as well as officials here in south korea are taking it seems that this is a missile that can reach out to tubes that no other north korean missile can before as before the u.s. based union of concerned scientists an independent think tank says that if all these numbers are true in terms of its trajectory and altitude this missile could strike as far as washington d.c. ok now a regional powers like japan and south korea have been taking defensive measures in response what's going to tell us about that. right well i mean him immediately after north korea's rocket launch early this morning south korean military forces conducted its own live fire exercises they shot missiles at targets off at sea off the east coast by land sea and air according to the joint chiefs of staff here these targets where approximately the same distance as north korea's launch site so south korea is sending the message that it can handle or at least take out any of north korea's rocket launch facilities ok now it's been two months since the last missile launch by north korea what can we make of the timing of this law. well i think there had been some hope that the tough talk coming from washington over the past few months maybe scared kim jong un into holding back on its own as rocket launches but just yesterday here in seoul south korea's unification minister said that north korea has made faster progress than anyone expected in terms of developing its nuclear weapons program and that more tests should be expected essentially so really this missile test this what looks like an i.c.b.m. shouldn't come as a surprise jason thanks so much for that from seoul south korea. pope francis has celebrated an open air mass and me and mar some one hundred fifty thousand people mainly from the country small catholic minority attended the service in yang gong the pond have called on people to embrace forgiveness and reconciliation as their country emerges from nearly five decades of military rule on tuesday a part of met with the de facto leader aung san suu change in what is both a spiritual and a diplomatic visit pope francis avoided discussing the persecution of range of muslims which the u.n. and u.s. have described as ethnic cleansing francis is the first pope to ever visit myanmar . abbas in hartogs joins us now from ragon young going for the latest on what was the mood at the mass boston. brian considering the fact that there were as you said one hundred fifty thousand people about at that at that mass on the sports ground in yangon it was surprisingly quiet it was everything was very well organized people had been waiting for hours some even since last night before the mass actually started to get in then they took their seats everyone had their assigned blocks where they were supposed to be and then when the pope arrived of course some people cheered but most people think they had little flags that they were waving when he passed around in his open air car he was driving through through the crowds and and waving at the people the people force waved back and waved their flags but it wasn't a true mood i would say everything was very solemn it was it was. quiet rather but that doesn't mean that the people were unhappy to see the pope we spoke to people after the mass it ended and one lady even had tears in her eyes saying that she was so happy that she got the chance to see the pope you have to understand that many of these people come from very very remote areas of the country. nick areas mountainous areas in the on the on the border through to thailand to china also travel very far some for days to come here and to see the pope and. many of them or most of them all of them were very happy to actually finally get the chance to see him in person and up close and they were no doubt listening very closely as well to the pontiff homily what the pope talked about during that. well mainly was talking about making peace this is a country that is facing many conflicts not only the conflict in rakhine of course and the crisis of the rohinton the plight of the ruins of people there but many conflicts there are. ethnic conflicts that have been running for many decades and for example in kitchen state where many of the christians are from many of the christians also that were at the mass today there is an armed conflict there that has been running for a very long time and many people. have bare wounds from from this conflict and that's what that's what the pope talked about and talked about three conciliation and how that reconciliation was only possible that if there was forgiveness and if there was love and that people shouldn't resort to anger and to hatred and to revenge when it comes to dealing with these conflicts even though that might be a human reaction but he said to have the example of jesus christ obviously. to take that example and. to use the forgive be forgiving to the people who hurt them to overcome the wounds that they carried away from from from these many years of conflict brian. in the political discussions with the saucer she and with military leaders apparently the polish did not raise the issue of the why was . well it was the pope's decision not to mention the role hinge or. the thing is before the speech yesterday and also today he didn't mention he didn't mention the injury he did refer very briefly to the conflict in rakhine along with other conflicts people he was praying for in those areas they didn't mention the engine he was warned by various. forehand also by the cardinal here in myanmar not to use that word because it would antagonize a lot of people here this is a very sensitive issue and the fear was that it might be pinned the divide between the religious groups and make that reconsideration that the pope is trying to help achieve and to make that more more difficult than maybe that was the reason why he chose not to use that word brian bussin hard bring us up to date on the qantas visit to me in march thanks very much this morning boss and. now for some of the other stories making the news this hour bali's international airport is set to reopen today after an

program that automatically executes buy and sell orders. quite literally it's a far cry from the old method of shouting out orders on the trading floor the result was more transparency and speed and then increase in exchange capacity today some ninety percent of the total volume of all german stock exchanges are traded via cetera system's average turnover is more than five billion euros per day. celebrations of that anniversary are well underway at the frankfurt stock exchange so let's cross over there to our financial correspondent daniel cope danielle so where you standing right now is that just a pretty backdrop for the t.v. cameras these days while traders still go to the trading floor yes some are saying that this is actually the biggest t.v. studio here in germany and sometimes i really wish i was there in those golden days that's how some traders are describing it when there's there was still some action going on here on the trading floor one trader told me a little bit earlier people really screamed when there was news about a certain chair now the loudest noise that we can years sometimes is one of the traders who is kind of sneezing if there would be sort of an explosion only five percent of the trading is still done here at the trading floor and literally all the traders that are still here because of the computers trading in theory they could also do work from home well that could be rather interesting and big i.p.o. coming up early next year maybe you can see screen more details over to us. yeah insiders are reporting that siemens are thinking maybe to choose the frankfurt stock exchange for the for the i.p.o. of their medical technical company health in years this would be the biggest i.p.o. taking place here at the frankfurt stock exchange things twenty years the last really big one that we have seen like that was a telecom so yeah if this would be really the case and this would be extremely excited about we are hearing there's going to be a board meeting of the events taking place and maybe we'll know later already more about this. thank you very much open front. federal prosecutors in the u.s. investigation with the ride sharing

today and brian has more one is the very big issues today an obvious on again hard more than eighty african and european leaders are gathering in ivory coast to promote jobs and stability for africa's rapidly growing population the two day summit opens as the places greater emphasis on his ties to africa. i. think european capital was trying to send out some positive vibes at a number of events ahead of the summit in abidjan and at the european parliament high ranking politicians were also trying to find solutions for better cooperation between the continents is all pounding out of the people in the past the europeans have a tendency to look to the east towards russia and china they haven't done enough in africa sure we invested and we are committed but i think we need to strengthen our strategy not just throw money at the problem may. by the end of that i wish. the wake up call for europe was the migration crisis more than one hundred thousand africans arrived on the shores of the e.u. this year alone and some estimate that two million more are on the move towards europe the e.u. has been working on a plan to curb the influx and will try to sell it at the summit one of the key aspects of the plan is to fight the root causes of migration and some countries like those are political in others like nigeria the main reason is poverty the e.u. also wants to destroy the business model of human trafficking smuggling africans to europe has become a multibillion euro industry. to keep migrants from making the dangerous trek across the mediterranean the e.u. would like to beef up so-called reception centers in the transit countries and finally the e.u. is hoping to reach agreements with the countries of origin to take back those migrants who made it to europe but were not granted asylum. many african countries want something in return mainly money and legal migration alternatives for their citizens. that was a bit new among the few notes you know we just lack the funding and we have the will to change things but this will need to. to be supported with resources our economy is mainly informal to change that we need foreign investment. in new full. day he did business his mom it was in. european countries are we rebuilt they have sunk a lot of development money into africa over the decades like here in chad often with no noticeable improvement but for many on the continent the blame is clearly not entirely africa's. the biggest mistake is that aid doesn't always come with conditions attached and the red carpet is being rolled out for dictators that are starving their people and corrupting elections while enjoying the respect of the european countries. to live his big. money in return for migration control most likely that will be the defining narrative in. the europeans hope that this africa e.u. summit will yield tangible results. for the very latest from the cross over now to do that is max hoffman standing by for us in abidjan what are people expecting to come out of the summit. bryan the official motto here is empowering africa's youth and if you look at the demographics you have this is the youngest continent in the world but you also have the highest rate of youth unemployment and then if you see the new news statistics that the whole population in africa is going to court job pool until two thousand one hundred you can see this is in the porton topic but it is a long term topic and in the short and mid charm is the africans and the europeans are expecting different things as we just saw in the report the africans want more aid they want investment they want money to put it quite simply and the europeans want african countries to help them curb the influx of migration in short they want border and by gratian control in return for their financial efforts ok sounding like migration and security are likely to be key issues at this summit can we expect substantial progress in these areas. remember what happened on the western balkans route that was the the route where most migrants came through two years ago that was effectively shut down because one of the transit countries in this case turkey played along and said ok we will help you curb the influx of migrants that's something you cannot reproduce replicate here in africa because some countries make a profit transit countries like niger through the human trafficking and other countries like libya are completely out of control i mean you see in the reports that migrants now are being auctioned as slaves in libya this just shows you how far gone that country is it is the country where most migrants pass through so there is no easy solution that's why the e.u. now is trying to focus on the countries of origin we just talked about ethiopia we talked about niger meaning that they want to eliminate the root causes why people make that trek to europe and that is something they try to do with financial aid and of course also trying to convince those countries to take back the migrants that don't have any right to say in the european union but that brian is a very very long process it will take years decades it's a step by step progress process and that so many presidents heads of state heads of government are talking here of the jaw that's already a success ok max hoffman for us and others are looking forward to seeing what comes out of that summit max thanks very much for now though. now to a remarkable example of just how far some nations will go to avoid having to face israel in sports it appears an iranian wrestling superstar was
