S. President and the United States reveals a clear fork in the road all European Countries except for poland have seen their Approval Rating of trump fall below fifty percent since he took office last year you see it right there and yet most europeans say they do not want an end to the close ties between the European Union and the United States and that trend has been rising with trump in the white house. So love the land not the leader of this is more than just statistics today in davos one well respected banking c. E. O. Put it bluntly friday he said will likely be trumps last chance with europe. The u. S. President landed in switzerland earlier today hes the first u. S. President in eighteen years to a tin wef World Economic forum trump will spend the next few days pushing his America First agenda hes due to address the Forum Tomorrow at the end of a week that and see his administration announce a new package of trade tariffs and sparked turmoil on currency markets are either set for the mountains now my colleague Helena Humphrey joins me from the World Economic forum in davos good evening to you helen i well weve almost arrived all week the the narrative the net and narrative theyve all led us to u. S. President donald trump and the message that hell deliver tomorrow is the World Economic forum is it ready. Its certainly done its best friend to prepare the ground for this moment yesterday we saw a convincing speeches from the german chancellor im going to machall who said have we not learned the lessons of history one hundred years on from the end of the First World War now is not a time full populism for protectionism for isolationist policies that baton was picked up by french president Emmanuel Mccall he quickly became the davos dolling often he took to the stage he said lets move now for a stronger europe and that was met with great applause in a divorce that said today british Prime Minister theresa may came to town and she delivered her speech in which she sidestepped breaks it thats not to say that she didnt try to drum up some global trade at though she did meet with the u. S. President to donald trump and she emphasized that special relationship that special relationship which is perhaps more important for the u. K. Right now as it tries to look for financial and global trade ties post breaks it of course pro post britains departure from the e. U. Now held a weve talked about heads of state all week but no one received the welcome mr truong did today i mean you were there lets take a look at when he entered the Congress Center today and if you could maybe well see those pictures there we go talk us through this helena i mean what was it why when he came in. There i have never seen the Congress Center like it was packed out as he cut through that courage or everybody was up the stay as cameras everywhere waiting you know people saying whats your message he said its one of peace and prosperity switzerland he said the great country one person said thanks for coming that didnt play out very well on social media if it wasnt met with a too much concern here he then proceeded to help to hold talks with britain. Prime minister cerise in may and israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu his own they only have two big allies here ready at the moment and we understand it then hes going on to host a business dinner with big Company Heads tonight yeah i mean when you look at these pictures i mean it looks like you know it looks like hes coming home and at the beginning of the program tonight i described trump at the World Economic forum as the davos dilemma the elite of globalization and the president who dragged them through the swamp reunited and it feels so good is that the case just a huge irony isnt it because he walked in to the lions den of globalists who stand for everything that trump doesnt but yet he was met with the excitement and some further hate us because this is the dynamic he is nevertheless the leader of the worlds number one economy and people are waiting with bated breath as to what he says you know tomorrow yeah and as soon as he landed in davos he met with theresa may then Binyamin Netanyahu lets take a look at what was said what was done. I just want to thank you very much this is a great. Gig thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you today we continue a special relationship between you and i just want to say that i look forward to continuing our remarkable commanders. In the years. And i want to express appreciation of the people of this group to you thank you most for thank you very much good thank you. I mean there was a lot of people saying that what we saw the day was a true political love fest and maybe they were doing it for thursday because they know friday will be a different story tomorrow we know that mr trump will deliver that final address at the World Economic forum and we know that the Trump White House has leakage issues are you able to give us a preview of that speech tell them. Well we do know that the u. S. President is expected to tout his America First policy and he promised to drain the swamp a year ago hes flown into the heartland of the elites here hell talk about domestic wins because lets face it on terms of Foreign Policy he doesnt have too many to write home about so we can expect him to talk about the tax reform despite the fact that the International Monetary fund head to christina god speaking here said it may pay off in the short term that post twenty twenty two the fact that the United States has had to widen its budget deficit mains means that growth may slow down and yeah i mean hell probably speak as well about some of those policies about making America Great again about the Stock Exchange records weve seen record off the record despite the fact that once again the i. M. F. Said remember when you see a boom you normally see a bust thats what all economists know and thats what trump just seems tone deaf to yeah exactly and you cant you know escaped the laws of physics even on equity markets we know that trump and his american first theyve been ridiculed the been rejected all week talk to me about how much of an impact trump is and is having on the global water. Ill say one thing brant the fact that a u. S. Dollar President Donald Trump has created such a media storm also means that for once were talking about really serious issues such as the Nuclear Threat for once this is really being discussed here at the World Economic forum the paris climate deals also being discussed and i went to a press Conference Today about the launch of a new Oceans Initiative to clean up the oceans in line with the Paris Agreement and thats being spearheaded by norway and i have to put its the norwegian Prime Minister Interesting Initiative but how can you launch Something Like this when we just havent seen the commitments from the u. S. Take a listen to what she said. Bearing in mind that the United States voted against a u. N. Resolution on Plastic Waste last year how much then of a blow is that sue your campaign and the things youre trying to achieve here if i could put up two Prime Ministers all by police well i think the reason why were notion in high level panelists to show the into linkage between the oceans the economy and how many jobs that is connected to it and how important it is. To deal with this pollution problems to deal with how make sure that water is safe for those that see how we can explore in a Sustainable Way and i believe in the argument of economy and jobs i believe that showing that sustainability and jobs goes hand in hand is and is the future that means that we have to do something about the plastic because we will not be able to have fish and they were no there will be not the jobs and the fisheries there will not be fisherman there will be a lot of Different Things that is happening if we are ending up it in plastic instead of fish fish is a very healthy protein it will not be healthy if its a press tick so its i think thats one of the reasons because we need to show this argument together and see the economy of it yeah thats a very strong argument that shes making there it remains to be seen whether or not President Trump is going to listen we know that the president likes to fight and something tells me that a president ial up yours could be in that speech tomorrow or do you agree on. Potentially at the same time we have also seen the us president be considered a sri for example in the whistle speech in july then come up with a total vote facit total turnaround on twitter that could also be something that happens whether you know the u. S. European relationship is really on the line here remains to be seen remember the World Economic forum is not a binding Summit Europe has gained ground here its really looking at a stone a stronger europe and you know with all the snow here in davos theres also a lot of hot air sometimes summits like this not to mention the fact that the higher you get the center the air the less oxygen there its all right my colleague Helena Humphrey at the World Economic Forum Excellent reporting this week tonight and youll be on the story for us tomorrow helen thank you very much. In vienna the United Nations has begun fresh efforts to jumpstart peace talks between the Syrian Government and the opposition the two days of talks in vienna come after eight previous rounds in geneva and even though a breakthrough seems as far away as ever u. N. Special envoy for syria stuff on the mistura remains optimistic meanwhile in the north of the war torn country another conflict is raging on turkeys offensive targeting Kurdish Militia in the region of a free. Well most turks appear to approve of their governments new war our correspondent in istanbul filed this report on how Operation Olive Branch is being perceived back home. More on every channel the military operation in syria is the top story on Turkish Television the tenor of the reporting there a petri arctic how critical the majority of turkish people it seems support operation all of branch in this tea house at least no one thinks the offensive is a mistake would be that the terrorists are looking for an opportunity to divide the country but we wont bottom. Desertions culture so we are fighting against isis and other terrorist groups those who dont want to help us should at least not stand in our way out of the will angel almost of. You know our Army Fighting in a friend and strength of it and i hope that with the help of allah we will take home a lick to resolve it is that me to my new beautiful we will win im absolutely sure of it. Turkish politicians agree as well and its not just the ruling a k party that supports the offensive in syria Opposition Leader kamal kill extols says he also backs the operation as does meryl action are the head of the new party that wants to challenge president tragic tired aragon in the next election she tweeted that shes praying for a Glorious Army the only party to condemn the offensive is the pro kurdish. Jimmy a former Spokes Person calls it inacceptable. The olive branch has always been a symbol of peace but now it is stained with blood its also the end of one is extending the olive branch to Bashar Al Assad in syria who once used to be his ally said it was upmarket this operation is an attempt to massacre the kurds opus we hope the statements like this one by jimmy to chile are dangerous right now in the past days the turkish government has detained dozens of people including politicians activists and journalists for criticizing the military operation in syria the official charged terrorist propaganda. The journalist who good shows servile colleagues who got into trouble with authorities over reports criticizing the offensive he says the government gave editors of turkeys leading Media Outlets directives on how to report patriotically. With congress i mean have you noticed how all of the newspapers have similar headlines. This is actually government propaganda. For their journalists my sense of themselves to avoid trouble. Unfortunately cant do proper journalism in turkey anymore. But mahmoud a columnist for the government friendly daily sabbat disagrees he says the government is not influencing coverage of the afrin offensive. When it comes to National Security that every journalist bears responsibility thats how it is everywhere in the world. But that doesnt mean theyre not free to report on everything but there are some media and intellectuals in turkey who use freedom of speech with hatred of the government. To be. The offensive enough friend looks set to stay turkeys main story for now the government has announced that it intends to further expand the operation. Well a barrier has been broken the genie is out of the bottle these are some of the headlines from news of a scientific breakthrough in cloning chinese researchers say that they have successfully phoned a monkey is now the baby monkeys that you see here dont just look alike they are identical their clone using the same method which produced dolly the sheep two decades ago but there is a very important difference monkeys are primates just like us humans cloning a human technically is now possible me chills sean and they might just look like two cute baby mechanics but they also represent a breakthrough that has excited scientists around the world the monkeys are close the very First Successful clones of a primate using the method to produce dolly research is that the Chinese Academy of sciences presented them to the public this week the purpose of doing loose monkeys experiment animals is really for the human health curing of human disease there are many other animal models who told us you can lose mice but that was widely used but there has been difficulty. In using that as animal model for human disease because mice of very far away from humans the process took over a year and one hundred twenty seven eggs almost eighty viable embryos and it bevy of host mothers to produce the two babies its hoped the clones could be used to studying diseases like parkinsons and Alzheimers Research is say clones like these could help them glean results that would be more pertinent to humans but this breakthrough also begs another question can we clone humans and should we the burial of cloning primate species is well over call in principle any private including human can be called. But all purpose of producible call monk use is purely for human benefit for medical purposes we see no reason why. But despite the assurances it seems the debate around possible human cloning is once again on the agenda. Lots of questions and see if we can get some answers janai here at the big table with me to my right Derek Williams our d. W. Science
