Unarguably said that israel did have a right to exist although she has been criticized by some on the right in israel for talking about a one state solution in the future what i think we have is a great deal of pressure coming from the u. S. Administration. The white house to make this decision there was a report of that over the weekend and trump has broken cover in this tweet saying that it would show great weakness that these 2 hate israel and all jewish people just last month israeli ambassador to United States ron dermer was saying that they would be allowed in that it was seems a good thing for u. S. Congress members to have access to israel for despite whatever the views that they held were so theres been a big flip flop here from the israeli side Benjamin Netanyahu has an election coming up presumably it does him good on the israeli right to make this kind of decision potentially he sees some some extra u. S. Assistance or potentially further u. S. Approvals of various things coming up which might help them in that election but there are many jews in america who vote democrat there are many pro israeli voices who are concerned about the effect that this decision might have long term on the. Partisan nature of u. S. Alliance with israel and as you say harry the belief is that trump has some want to do with this decision that pressure from him led to israels decision but. Are we getting a sense of how involved the u. S. Administration was in israel taking this particular decision against to congresswoman. Well those are an exclusive report on the x. Ers site over the weekend saying that trump had made a very similar comment to what came out on twitter today in private to the israelis saying that it would be weak for. Them to allow in people who who espouse the the boycott divestment and sanctions position saying that if if they want to boycott israel and israel should boycott them and as well as that we had this trump tweet come out well in advance of the official israeli statement coming from the Deputy Foreign minister has a very so i think its fair pretty clear that theres been a good deal of u. S. Pressure either trump was trying to increase that pressure with this tweet or he already knew that the decision had been made in favor of what he was advocating we have had some response from u. S. Democrats Elizabeth Warren the u. S. President ial candidate saying that it would be a shameful and unprecedented move and not further israels cause to be seen as a tolerant liberal Democracy Forward to make such a decision that was of ahead of the of the official announcement so we see that this is already playing very much into the u. S. Political scene and trumps reelection efforts so i think its being proposed here very much as a gift from netanyahu to trump or if it also may have some short term political gain from that in yahoo but as i say a lot of people are concerned about the long term implications of this move ok harry foster thank you. Several people have been killed in an exchange of fire between Pakistani Security forces across the line of control in kashmir and for more on this well cross over to her new delhi shortly but 1st well go over to. And pakistan administered kashmir for the latest from osama bin what are we hearing on the pakistani side about this incident. All right apologies we seem to be problems with osama bin laden. We will try and bring him on as soon as we establish communications with him lets cross over to new delhi so the indians are denying any casualties even though reports claim that there have been deaths on both sides. Well we havent yet officially heard from anybody in the Indian Government. On this incident at all what we have heard is has been reported by one of the indian News Agencies and they have courted an unnamed indian official saying that to this official has denied any casualties taking place on the indian side but also said that there was a ceasefire violation it took place in the sector in jammu in india administered kashmir and the indian army retaliated in which 3 Pakistani Soldiers were killed all the information coming at this moment is coming we had this agency no indian official has officially responded to cease fire violations act all in general cease fire violations on the line of control are pretty regular but if in fact these deaths have occurred and an indian officer does respond it could be an escalation to certain extent we dont know yet we have merely speculating as we know that during this time tensions between india and pakistan are already very high so it would be important to see how and when the Indian Government actually responds the only response to that from an indian official today happened short while ago when the principal secretary of the state of juggling kashmir with a Indian Government said that the celebrations of Independence Day today went without any incident and the Prime Minister himself has been addressing the issue of kashmir on indias Independence Day. That is correct Prime Minister said quite a few things when it came to me and in fact the major point that he made was a ts managed to do in 70 days of his 2nd tenuous Prime Minister that no other government no other Prime Minister before him could do also implying. That perhaps other governments wanted to do things wanted to get rid of the special status that was granted to the state of Jammu And Kashmir but could not because that in and the courage to do so he also spoke about how the surplus of development in the state of general interest me and in the month of october a Global Investor summit has been announced in st i got a watch we dont know is when will the Indian Government actually lift off the destructions that have been imposed in the bush meat rally and if this investor summit will actually happen at a time that it is still under lockdown and people a lot of will to come out whether people will actually come out and support this Global Investor summit i think that would be quite a big test what Prime Minister will be indias from mr has been stressing is the reason behind his decision thank you for that update from new delhi lets now bring in some of and once again he is joining us from. Some or so what are we hearing on the pakistani side on the latest incident on the line of control. 3 in the Pakistani Military has confirmed that 3 of its soldiers died in this latest escalation and ability saying that it was an unprovoked incident of shelling from across the line of control the language divide this disputed region and theres been damage to property and there has been intermittent fighting that its continued all throughout this morning weve been hearing from local sources as well and there are a number of civilians have also been killed and injured in this attack what really have been seeing a closer to the line of control as we visited these places is that people have been living under constant fear the fear that these this type of incidents are going to become more regular as it has happened every time tensions have escalated between these 2 Nuclear Neighbors saying that it in retaliation killed 5 indian soldiers the Indian Government has not commented on it and the official indian using in the end i have denied that claim so it is the biggest death stall so far that weve seen after the 5th of august thats when feminist and there in the room or the government removed which we used pressure status and pakistanis meanwhile have been holding protests in solidarity with the kashmiris on the indian side of some. Yesterday in 15th of august the indian Independence Day it was declared as a black day and pakistan and pakistanis not just inside the country but also abroad have been holding protests there in the morning we saw people coming out in various cities holding back odds and protesting against what they call the grave violations of rights in dish near. India and also across the across the globe you heard from people who are protesting outside embassies and consulates when such protests was held in london where some government ministers as well as an advisor to the Prime Minister in run convent there by mr brown himself came to this region for the 1st time just 24 hours earlier and warned kashmiris that intelligence reports suggest that india is planning something he did not elaborate what but he did refer to an incident which happened in february where there was a cross border. Attacks and india blamed that incident in order on pakistan all right thank you. Chinese Security Forces are gathering near the border with hong kong as antigovernment protests in the territory continue so these pictures from reuters show them in the border city of shenzhen as you can see beijing says they are conducting exercises on wednesday night police dispersed the territorys latest protest this time it took place outside a Police Station earlier this week demonstrators managed to shut down the airports and the rest President Donald Trump has weighed in on the crisis so hes offering talks with chinese president xi jinping and is urging she to go to hong kong and personally meet demonstrators who has more from hong kong. People in hong kong are aware of the troop movements across the border ancient saying but you dont get an impression that anyone is in a state of panic is a certain general sense of anxiety because everybody is a certainty facing this place but that said china is sending out a message that message being we are here and were actually very close at those pictures to the words of the Chinese Ambassador in the u. K. He said that this was the grave this crisis facing home call since the british handover in 1997 he also said that. He wont china wont allow protesters to bring home gold down into the abbotts and he also said that china is monitoring moves among certain protesters that he equated to gerry as well chinas ambassador to the u. K. Has accused Foreign Forces of being behind the protests in hong kong no foreign country should interfere in hong kong. We urge those Foreign Forces to respect chinas sovereignty and security immediately stop interfering in hong concepts as stop interfering in chinas internal affairs stop conniving in violent offenses this should not misjudge the situation and go down the wrong path otherwise they will lift the stone only to drop it on their own feet. Well the ambassador also accused some british politicians of viewing hong kong as part of the British Empire that was in response to a british m. P. s proposal that people in hong kong should get u. K. Citizenship rights hong kong was a british colony until 1907 when it was handed over to china part of the deal sought china pledged to give the territory a high degree of autonomy with its own executive legislature and judiciary lets talk about this with laurie green whos a china analyst at the Research Consultancy t. S. Lombard whos joining us from london hi there rory thanks for being with us and give me your assessment of the Chinese Ambassadors comments 1st accusing Foreign Forces of being behind the protests and then accusing british politicians of viewing hong kong as part of the British Empire. During yes well the line is very much at the heart of a very things position on kong and that is that it is a domestic issue and this is absolutely core to chinas view view of the whole situation that the one country 2 systems form with agreed upon by the british during the handover to china means that hong kong is it is a domestic issue for china and beijing is very very keen to emphasize that particularly in light of tweets by donald trump suggesting that. Tying the issues in hong kong to to the trade floor and the wider distribution we have to us yeah he had not only to do a trade deal with china but he tweeted earlier today. If president xi would need directly in person with a protest there would be a happy an enlightened ending to the hong kong problem i have no doubts of what you make of trumps tweets. I think thats a its a very optimistic proposal from for President Trump that. So you think were not be going going there to negotiate with the protesters which as as youve noted have been described by beijing as terrorists. So this the escalation in the rhetoric used to describe actions happening in hong kong suggest a compromise between china and the the protest is even more unlikely china doesnt negotiate with terrorists so let us try to do narrative because we thought it was filmed by the Reuters News AgencyChinese Military personnel. Across the border from hong kong. Is china looking to intervene at any point or is it still giving hong kong or thorney is an opportunity to maintain calm so to speak absolutely the forces are there but its more of a scare tactic at the moment china actually does not want to want to intervene in hong kong they dont want to put any boots on the ground Security Forces being sent that would be a sort of a last resort move so beijing is now continuing to to fund the efforts by the hong kong Security Forces and we would do that for as long as possible that remains the key tactic from from beijing to allow the hong kong authorities with their full support to try and control the protests i know youve been looking at the Economic Impact of all of this on the hong kong no doubt it has taken a hit we saw of course the airport not fully functional for 2 days the number of tourists as well declining in your assessment whats been the fallout economically on one of asias financial hubs. So the short term fallout is very clear via tourism act Consumer Spending how so confidence is low. Protesters on the streets you cant go out and buy anything so that has an immediate Short Term Impact on the economy. Were ready seeing some businesses start to question these are hong kong guys as theyre sort of a ship that is setting the proximity to china it always gives it an edge over other Asian Financial centers but now with this instability the possible threats the rule of law coming from china were hearing of people considering singapore or the other countries within asia as potential bases so the Short Term Impact on tourism house on the Financial Center itself all right thank you for speaking to us on the. Right here in just a moment dramatic pictures of her Russian Airliner forced to crash land in a field after striking a flock of birds.
