I. I was. The party and government in Madrid right now is the most corrupt party in the European Union and they're not facing justice instead they're charging people with sedition and rebellion things they never charged terrorists separatists with great Forgan izing peaceful votes peaceful rallies it's an assault on a broader see not just for Catalonia not just for Spain for all of Europe and for anybody who believes in democratic rights I have no words to describe what's happening right now in cuts alone you know it's outrageous there's nothing wrong in wanting to be an independent country in my opinion so those 8 hours to form a catamaran officials wake up today will wake up today after having spent their 1st night in custody and meanwhile we're expecting news for possible European. Warrants against the acid catenary the calmness Puja months and for his colleagues Well he however is in Belgium where he fled is a crisis over the independence referendum deepened and after his government was ousted from Belgium he stated the rest of his ministers was a grave mistake and an attack on democracy so was the arrest in Madrid a surprise poll Cruz communist is an economist from Juneau and he's based in Barcelona and he's a supporter of Catalan independence be shocked for this decision they say they are in jail because the crime they are prosecuting them it's a crime with a lot of years in prison but it's a crime that really it has to meet islands and there hasn't been any single violent incident when we've demonstrated in streets or whatever so they say that the violence that they've done it was the violence of the Spanish police the October the 1st but of course it was not caused by them by the cartel and it was caused by the Spanish government who deployed the police but they say that it's their fault they are now in jail or event the really the actual charges I understand they accused of Ali belly in sedition and misuse of public funds in fact when they were stating publicly what charges there were on the Although these haven't even mentioned the violence they're talking more about rebellion and the addition Well I'm not jurist so I'm not an expert in law I guess that these crimes are less hard and really on so it should be that it if they can see there that they've committed those crimes but what I'm sure is that the rebellion crime which is a crime in which you can go for 30 years in jail that's not committed for sure of course it has been completely peaceful what we've done since now you said you were surprised all that they were arrested do you think. The ministers themselves were supplying is because one wonders what they were expecting when they turned up at the Court in Madrid they must have had some anticipation or Surely some fear of what might happen when confronting the law thought either way meeting the of Artie's Yeah I think that since the time in which to see the leaders are in jail preventively for having none and nothing from our point of view because he said that what they read it was to obstruct justice but with him being yours and you took when they try to tell people to go home so to not obstruct justice Ok so with him being the years doing exactly the contrary to what they just they say that they need when we saw these that they were going to jail we were already very shocked so since then maybe we are a little bit more prepared mentally to what happened today and probably they were by today than there was this possibility what do you make of the fact that the Catalan leader Khaled pre-human isn't he still in Belgium do you think he should now return home they've already here a once which has been issued by a Spanish judge a European warrant for his arrest What do you think of him not being in Spain No I think he's on the right things especially after with what we've seen today he's asking to be judged by the Belgian justice in which we think that will be more fair one week ago at the World Economic Forum and a study in which that the Spanish the independence of the judiciary was the 50 acres in the war so below Botswana in Kenya and an example of this is what we've seen today and he's pulled Cruz communist an economist for you. Ever face North Korea preparing to launch another nuclear test if that were to happen what would be the response of NATO the organization secretary general he install Timberg says Alliance has the ability to deter a ballistic missile if needs be the question is though would NATO be willing to use such a means to counter attack it's believed a strong support in the United States for the idea of a preventative strike if North Korea were to cross the line Mark Owen our correspondent in salt has been speaking to the NATO chief and beyond by asking him whether Donald Trump Spahn bastard rhetoric towards North Korea was worsening the crisis he has his words and he and shows of his he decides what kind of words he used that the important thing for me is that NATO is united in our approach to North Korea where we're a condom the missile tests and the nuclear and ballistic programs. And where we support international efforts to put pressure not when diplomatic means political means but not least by the stronger economic sanctions. All the dollars are gone that the approach and the reason to put pressure on North Korea is to make sure or induce them to change behavior so we can have a real dialogue on how we can make these in straw in Iran without nuclear weapons would NATO support a preventative u.s. Strike on North Korea I think I will only add to the tensions and create more uncertainty if I started to answer all the call questions the focus now is the pressure on North Korea to find it peaceful solution we have the capabilities we have the resolve to respond to any attack. With our military capabilities but the recent strong the Tarrance is to prevent the conflict not to provoke a conflict that was the way we responded to the ballistic threats from the so we're doing in the fifty's sixty's and during the Cold War And that's a fundamental the same way we respond to and it went from. That's from North Korea what is NATO is red line when it comes to North Korea well for us the absolute red line is sort of course the protection of all allies so we are in the alliance where we have promised to stand together and one for all and all along we are ready to protect and defend all allies against and it including of course a ballistic missile is the reality now that denuclearization is unattainable in North Korea and that really the most that the West can hope for is is a containment freezing of the North Korea missile program it may be that of course we need this step wise approach meaning 1st to freeze the programs and then to abandon programs I agree that this is not the easy way I agree that these these may take time but at the same time we have seen before that we have succeeded in banging or getting rid of weapons on. Must instructions that has happened in Ukraine in Belarus in South Africa and in Libya so we have been able to make progress before. Absolutely it's also possible to make progress in concert North Korea but then we need strong pressure there going on with actions speaking to the b.b.c.

Thank you very much Ed top headlines this morning 8 former members of the ministers from the ousted Catalan government are spending their 1st night in custody after a Spanish judge refused them bail as they waited trial on rebellion charges the un has urged governments to grant citizenship to say stateless people in their territories as the crisis continues as the Meon miles where he was lame population and now a business news and Venezuela's economic crisis continues to deepen and the government is running out of funk cash so President Maduro has a difficult choice should he use Venezuela's reserves of dollars to pay for food medicine and other vital imports or pay back money to foreign lenders somebody with a few ounces on the choices I'm jus would have our business desk in Hong Kong So Andrew tell us what. Well it looks as though foreign lenders are going to find that payments for repaying Venezuela's debts are going to probably be a bit slower and they might disappear altogether the president has ordered a restructuring and refinancing olf Venezuela's foreign debt now this is certainly makes it look like that Venezuela increases the chances I think that Venezuela might just say we're not going to pay our foreign debt anymore throughout this foreign at this crisis actually Venezuela has been quite pretty good at paying back money that it's borrowed from abroad don't forget it's it's a big oil exporter in theory it's got the world's biggest oil reserves but there are lots of issues with the refineries and the with the pipelines that they haven't been repaired during the economic crisis and of course the oil price is quite low so that's $1.00 of the reasons why Venezuela is short of these dollars So if you have a choice between food medicine and paying foreign lenders you can understand if you're a president in trouble the might want to prioritize food and medicine of course they will what is the exact date how much is it then is a no it's it's difficult to tell tennis Weyler is not very good at publishing economic statistics accurately and timely and a lot of people don't necessarily believe them when it does when they do see them anything up 2 $150000000000.00. The the the state owned oil company owes an awful lot of stance. President material said that the oil company will make one more payment of a $1000000000.00 that it is. But after that then they'll be restructuring the dates that we need to look at now is November the 17th. Because Venezuela missed a payment on some foreign debt on October the 12th and he gets $30.00 days grace So November the 12th will be the day to see whether it makes that payment if it doesn't then Venezuela will officially be in default on some of its loans energy thank you a few hours ago an event that millions probably thought could never happen did the Twitter account of Donald Trump went down the social media sites was ablaze with people asking what happened had the president United States voluntarily deleted his account that someone else done it for him I did speak to Derek made executive editor international vice major and Derek the explanation has come from Twitter itself what is worst would have been saying. Well it's an inside man I mean his Twitter said that someone a customer resource manager or something had voluntarily turned off the account on their last year for it it's kind of their last blaze of glory before they quit just looking at some of the Twitter reaction we got someone saying we all remember we were doing the few minutes of peace while Mr Trump's Twitter account was down and is a congressman Ted Hughes says did Twitter employees shut down Trump's Twitter you made America feel better for 11 minutes I mean there's a lot of stuff like that but it does sort of highlight the role Donald Trump as play using Twitter the vehicle easy easy easy for yeah I mean I would say this I mean Twitter should be the most important free speech platform. On the planet nominate sposi wide open and the United States presidency is supposed to be the most important Guardian actually speech on earth and yet somehow we've hit some sort of nexus plan a confluence of events where everyone has screwed everything up here. It is a little bit unfortunate in a sense of a bit worrying that someone can actually do this. I mean this is really what it comes down to I mean it's it's easy for anyone to say whether they like or don't like Donald Trump on Twitter I mean he said Klein you have completely ridiculous things said plenty of self-defeating things but regardless of that he does have a very powerful voice and what he says on Twitter does have incredible impact and the fact that a singular person could just say you know what today is the day that I'm just going to turn this off I mean God knows how the entire world as we respond to this and I think we're actually lucky that the response to this was mostly like well that they shut it down on the White House shut it down the Twitter shut it down did anyone do it when the fact of the response here wasn't more dramatic than it could have been probably heartening we even saw a few years ago when the Associat
