Where Search And Rescue crews are working to reach people in the areas worst affected by friday nights powerful earthquake, which is now known to have killed more than 2,000 people. Three days of National Mourning have been declared. This is the small town of asni, in the atlas mountains, where few buildings have been left undamaged by the 6. 8 magnitude quake. Rescue teams have reached asni, after the Moroccan Army cleared a landslide on the access road. But other small Rural Communities remain cut off by rockfalls and there are reports of entire villages flattened. 0ur correspondent nick beake has made it to another community in the atlas mountains. This is amizmiz, in the atlas mountains. And you can see the destruction here. These were typically one and two storey buildings that came crashing down, and people have been picking through the rubble for their possessions. But of course, its notjust possessions. Many lives have been lost here, too. And just talking to someone a short time ago, they estimate at least 150 people have died, and that is a conservative estimate because ever since this earthquake struck, people have been trying to work through the rubble to find signs of life. If you just look up the road here, you get a sense of why people have been sleeping out overnight once again, because even if houses havent been completely destroyed, the walls have caved in, in many cases, roofs have given way, and people are just very fearful of going back into their houses, extremely worried that there could be another earthquake or aftershocks in the coming hours. In terms of reaching this place, our path was strewn with debris, with rocks. And of course, that is a much more important, more significant thing for the rescuers, the Emergency Services who are trying to get here. The reality is further up into the mountains, many more people have died, and reaching those communities is proving extremely difficult. And that is the focus of the effort here in morocco today. Lets speak to remy bossu, whos a director of the european mediterranean seismological centre. He joins us from france. Welcome, thanks for being with us. Now, the strength of this earthquake is unusual for this region, now, the strength of this earthquake is unusualfor this region, do we know the causes behind it . Is unusual for this region, do we know the causes behind it . Well, we know the causes behind it . Well, we know the causes behind it . Well, we know the cause. Know the causes behind it . Well, we know the cause, the know the causes behind it . Well, we know the cause, the cause know the causes behind it . Well, we know the cause, the cause is know the causes behind it . Well, we know the cause, the cause is the know the cause, the cause is the collision, so the tectonic plates motion, so the African Plate is moving north in collision to the Euro Asian Plate at a speed typically of if few millimetres a year. So it is unusually strong for the region because we have basically a seismic catalogue of recorded earthquake since the 1960s, so it is far too short to characterise the situation in such a region, so it is unusual to have such a large magnitude in this region, but that is simply because our recall is too short and thats why there are a lot of investigations on using the geology. Geomorphology as we call it. To try to find records of past earthquakes to better characterise the seismicity of the region. Mas earthquakes to better characterise the seismicity of the region. Was it ossible to the seismicity of the region. Was it possible to predict the seismicity of the region. Was it possible to predict this the seismicity of the region. Was it possible to predict this earthquake | possible to predict this earthquake at all . ,. , possible to predict this earthquake atall . ,y. , at all . Clearly not because there is no earthquakes at all . Clearly not because there is no earthquakes that at all . Clearly not because there is no earthquakes that we at all . Clearly not because there is no earthquakes that we are at all . Clearly not because there is no earthquakes that we are able i at all . Clearly not because there is no earthquakes that we are able to predict. So it is an area where we know that the seismic hazard is significant, so we know it is an area where there can be an earthquake. If you look at the map, you see it as mountains and you see further to the south west, there is agadir. Agadir was flattened in 1960 by an earthquake which was much smaller because it was typically 5. 8 probably, this one is around 6. 8, so it means 30 times smaller. So when you increase the magnitude by the energy released by the earthquake released was increased by a factor of 30. So basically 1960, the earthquake was just below the city, so thats why it was totally flattened. And again we have always to compare the relative strength of the earthquakes. It is clearly a major earthquake. Traditionally very significant within 40, 50 metres of its epicentre. Up to 150 kilometres, its epicentre. Up to 150 kilometres, it produces more localised damage. So it is very significant. But the earthquake of february into earthquake of february into earthquake was 7. 8. And it produced damage 300 kilometres around. I want to ask ou damage 300 kilometres around. I want to ask you about damage 300 kilometres around. I want to ask you about the damage 300 kilometres around. I want to ask you about the possibility of aftershocks because there is a lot of fear across the country and many hundreds of thousands of people sleeping outside still. Sleeping outside still. Well, it is not a probability, sleeping outside still. Well, it is not a probability, it sleeping outside still. Well, it is not a probability, it is sleeping outside still. Well, it is not a probability, it is a not a probability, it is a certainty. We already have recorded approximately 25 earthquakes, so there are many other Earthquake Aftershocks which have not been felt. The last one was 4. 5, so significant, three hours ago approximately. And there will be others. It will last for days and weeks. And especially in the mountain regions, people have to be very careful with the buildings because the buildings may have been weakened so if there is any doubt, people should not go back in the house. , �. , people should not go back in the house. , � ,. , ~ i.

The uk Prime Minister rishi sunak has warned the chinese premier of his significant concerns about beijings interference in democracy. It follows the arrest of a parliamentary researcher on suspicion of spying. Mr sunak met li qiang at the g20 summit in delhi hours after news of two arrests in the uk under the Official Secrets Act emerged. Mr sunak has been speaking in the past couple of hours. Well, i obviously cant comment on the specifics of an ongoing investigation, but with regard to my meeting with premier li, what i said very specifically is that i raised a range of different concerns that we have and areas of disagreement and, in particular, my very strong concerns about any interference in our parliamentary democracy, which is obviously unacceptable. Chris mason is travelling with the Prime Minister, and he gave me this update. So whats happened here, as the 620 comes to a conclusion, in the final hours, rishi sunak, the Prime Minister, has met the most senior chinese official here, premier li. The president xi jinping is not here, but he has raised concerns about the prospect of chinese interference in british parliamentary democracy. The context of this is a report in the sunday times exposing the fact that two people have been arrested in the uk under the Official Secrets Act, and the paper says that one of them is a former parliamentary researcher, with links to several conservative mps, including a minister. Security minister tom tugendhat. And conservative mp, alicia kearns, who chairs the Foreign Affairs select committee. That means that weve got this new row bursting back out again in public within the Conservative Party over what is an appropriate relationship to have with china. The foreign Secretaryjames Cleverly was in beijing in the last couple of weeks, his argument is the uk has to be pragmatic in its dealings with china. There are other senior conservative figures like iain duncan smith, a former party leader who thinks that the attitude of the uk has to be much more cautious, much more hawkish. And i think the context of these arrests in this report on the sunday times, alongside what were hearing from the british Prime Minister in his conversations with the chinese, gives you some sense of the concern at the heart of government about what has happened in recent months. These arrests date back to march. And what it might say about what china is trying to do in terms of interference, in terms of evidence gathering potentially within the british parliament, and how that should recalibrate, as some would see it, the relationship that london has with beijing. Yes, so going forward, then, how do they do that in the coming months, especially when they look towards an election . Its really, really tricky. Really tricky. And what weve seen in the uk in the last six or seven years. And excuse the noise, were at the airport here in delhi. The uk Delegation Plane which i need to get in a few minutes is taxiing past us, hopefully not about to take off but the dilemma is one we have seen playing out over the last few years, which is this what do you do about china . It is this colossus, geopolitically and economically. David cameron, former Prime Minister, wanted a really close relationship with china, invited the president over to the uk. They were pictured having a pint together. The attitude now is much, much more circumspect, but the view is you have to maintain a relationship. Hence the visit of the Foreign Secretary recently. Whilst there are others making the case that that is, in their view, naive and the uk should be much, much more cautious. And those who make that argument, i think, will feel at least to a degree vindicated by this news in the sunday times of these arrests and these allegations. Chris mason there. Lets turn to delhi, where india has formally handed over the g20 presidency to brazil at the Closing Ceremony of the groups annual summit. Prime minister Narendra Modi completed the transition by passing the ceremonial gavel of the presidency to brazils president. Earlier, the leaders gathered for a ceremony at the memorial of Mahatma Gandhi, indias independence leader. On saturday, the group issued a joint declaration on the war in ukraine, but the statement made no mention of russian aggression. My colleague Christian Fraser is in delhi at the summit and sent us this update. Yes, the Leadersjetting Out Of New Delhi this hour, at the end of two days of the g20 summit. And i would think immense satisfaction on the part of the indians that they got the communique across the line, because when the leaders arrived here 48 hours ago, there was a giant gap in that text specifically in relation to ukraine. There were 200 sherpa meetings to find the right language that would find consensus in the room. But today, as the gavel was passed to brazil, that communique adopted in full. Earlier in the day, though, a lot of it was about the ceremony. The leaders were out and about in new delhi. First, lets focus on rishi sunak, who went to a hindu temple proud hindu himself, of course with his wife, akshata murty. This was the akshardham temple, in new delhi. He prayed there, they were shown around the temple. And then he made his way to raj ghat, which is the memorial for Mahatma Gandhi who, of course, was assassinated in 1948, just after india had secured its independence from the british empire. This is the spot where Mahatma Gandhi was cremated all those years ago. And all 20 leaders joining in the rain, monsoon weather here in india today, in the rain to present their memorial, their wreaths to Mahatma Gandhi. Interesting because, of course, he was a man who was very much focused on self reliance. He made his own clothes, he didnt want to pay taxes to the british empire, Mahatma Gandhi, and theres a little bit of that in Narendra Modi. He talks about india becoming self reliant itself, and there is a theme there, in the way he approaches the Indian Economy at the moment. But for him personally, mr modi, in the run up to an election next year and a third term, i would think hell be very pleased with what hes got out of the weekend. But lets talk specifically about the ukraine passage, because thats where most of the focus has been. And particularly how its been watered down, when you compare it to the document they agreed in bali a year ago. So gone is deplores in the strongest terms the aggression by the Russian Federation against ukraine, and inserted in its place, we reiterated our national positions, all states must refrain from the threat of the use of force to seek territorial acquisition. Sergei lavrov has been giving a press conferencejust an hour ago at a hotel here in new delhi, clearly well satisfied with the language that they secured. But he spoke specifically about the black sea initiative, the supply of grain which theyve cut off, theyve walked away from that deal and theyve renewed their bombardment of the ukrainian ports, which was widely condemned here. Mr lavrov said it is possible to revive the black sea initiative, as long as the west removes obstacles to the export of russian grain and fertiliser. Heres the response from the british Prime Minister, rishi sunak. The 620 is obviously a large collection of countries that dont all necessarily share the same values and the same perspective, but it is important that the 620 has come together and issued very strong condemnation for the impact of the war in ukraine on food prices and energy security. Thats something that i was keen to highlight. Im glad that that is there in the statement, in black and white. And theres very strong language, highlighting the suffering that the war is doing and the impact its having on food prices, and the need for russia to rejoin the black Sea Grain Initiative and to halt attacks on civilian infrastructure in ukraine. Thats something that i wanted to make sure we did here, thats something that has happened, and thats something that everyone has sat up and taken notice of. Uk Prime Minister rishi sunak there, speaking at the 620 in delhi. President joe biden has hailed a greater era of cooperation with vietnam, as he arrived on a visit that aims to bring the two countries closer than theyve ever been and counter the rising influence of china in south east asia. Hanoi and washington are expected to sign a new partnership agreement, less than 50 years after the end of a conflict that left millions of vietnamese and 58,000 us Service People dead.
