And i am in the northwest of engelland where it is 7 00 a. M. We are learning more about the terrorist attack, the worst attack in more than a decade. Only two times before has the level threat raised to critical. People were killed including an 8yearold girl when they were leaving an event. Abedi was identified as the bomber. Isis claimed responsibility, but there is no proof. It is concluded on todays events that for the time being the threat level should be increased to critical. Mrs. May said they cannot discount the possibility other terrorists were responsible. Reporter the investigation into the deadly bombing of teens and children continued. The man who carried out the atrocity was 22yearold salman abedi. Reporter police say a 23yearold man has also been arrested in south manchester in relation to the terror attack that occurred around 10 30 last night. The blast was heard inside the Manchester Arena just after a performance as many parents waited to pick up their children and crowds were streaming out of the exits. The explosion near the box office was so powerful it can be seen and heard on this dashcam video on a car far from the explosion. The device was placed near one of the exits of the venue deliberately chosen to cause maximum carnage. Isis said they claim responsibility, but there is no proof of that. President trump i will call them losers because thats what they are, losers. People fled, leaping over chairs. How we werent crushed to death is a miracle. This person described shrapnel injuries. People would pull nails out of their arms and out of a little girls face. Police are looking for clues while they say this is more sophisticated than a loan wolf. In general i think its highly unlikely he learned how to make these on the internet. Reporter security across the country is stepping up. The Prime Minister vowing terrorists will not prevail. We are live from the manchester wall infirmary where so many victims were taken after the explosion. What more do we know about those caught up in this terrible, terrible attack . Becky, we are learning more about the victims killed in the attack including 15yearold olivia campbell. In the hours that followed the bombing, her mother and stepfather making impassioned pleas for any information about their daughter. But it is confirmed on facebook that olivia is confirmed among the dead. This is what her mother had to say my precious daughter taken far, far too soon. Go sing with the angels and keep smiling. I love you so much. Following the attack when she was speaking to cnn she said her daughter called her at 8 05 p. M. , before the concert. She said she was so excited and thanking her mother for letting her attend with a friend. Heartbreaking stories. We are getting identity of others, roussos, atkinson. 22 people were killed. 12 children under the age of 16 years old were admitted to the hospital and we understand that many of the victims have life threatening injuries, in Critical Condition and will need lifelong care. Awful and tragic stories. We are joined from outside 10 downing street. How did the government explain why they have raised the Terror Threat level to critical . This is a big deal for the british government. They have done this rarely and it is not for a long period of time. What was the reasoning . You are right in saying it is a big deal. We have only seen it done twice before which means an attack may be imminent. The government doesnt set this. It is set by an independent entity. Even after the westminster attack we didnt see the level raised to critical. The logic was that in that case it seemed the subject was working alone. Was the perpetrator working alone or did he have help or was it a copy cat attack. Thats why they decided to raise the level to the highest possible. What this means not just in manchester, but big events across the country the next few days we will see increased police presence. Army will help guard key locations where events will be had. Teresa may said it is to keep the country safe and to the response while the investigation continues. She will be sharing a special emergency meeting in about 2 1 2 hours. Steve, what are the critical questions that Law Enforcement will be asking themselves now . They are going to want to know exactly what type of explosive was used. That will be a signature of different terrorist groups. They will want to identify and locate every potential member of any cell active here. Until they have them wrapped up, they dont know its safe. To all of you, thank you. I will be back with much more from manchester later this hour. Lets go back to you. A quick break. After calling it a witchhunt, President Trump is lawyering up. Im dr.

Sting is this thing on . Come on your turn where do pencils go on vacation . Pennsylvania laughter crunchy wheat frosted sweet kelloggs frosted miniwheats. Feed your inner kid as many feared, President Trumps problems at home are following him abroad in rome. It is expected he will obtain a private attorney about his alleged probe into russia. It is said that there were active contact of members of Trumps Campaign but that they would not call it collusion. After the pope criticized trump for his nonchristian values. Saying he is building walls rather than bridges. This will be a very private meeting between the president and pontiff. What will be the chances we find out what they talk about or will we be told it is a Frank Exchange of views. Thats always a trick to find out what went on in the room. It is a private conversation between the pope, the president and a translator. Although the pope speaks english he prefers to use a translator. They may say what the broad themes were, but its sparse and bland. President may tweet out a comment or two from his discussions with the pope. We dont know what was said in the meetings between the pope and president. What we do see is what happened afterwards. If, as most vatican observers see, it will be if there can be a positive rapport in the future. This is a meeting that lasts 20 minutes to 40 minutes so it is not a time to get into nittygritty differences. It is the first time they will have a chance to size each other up and as pope francis said find ways they can work together. I imagine pope francis wants to impress on the president that hes on the world stage and consequences are for the world, and for pope francis that includes the poor. The u. S. And vatican have worked together for a long time on joint initiatives like combat Human Trafficking and human aid throughout the world. They have a number of things in common they will want to discuss. The motorcade is arriving now driving up the main road. I dont know if you can see the pictures of the car coming up to the basilica. They will go around the vatican and go in a side gate because people are gathering for Pope Franciss usual wednesday audience. This meeting is at an unusual time to fit in with both the president s schedule and the popes schedule. We can see the motorcade pulling into vatican city. This is an early meeting, 8 30 in the morning for this meeting between the pontiff and the president. Apparently they had to squeeze it in. Originally rome wasnt on the schedule and it was seen as a snub. This meeting seems jammed in at 8 30 in the morning on a wednesday as the pope holds his weekly audience with the general public. What should we make of all of that . I think they had to fit him in because originally there was no meeting with the pope scheduled. But they managed to fit it in. The vatican saw this as something of a snub initially, but then they rescheduled and managed to fit him in. The pope in 1 45 minutes has his normal wednesday audience. They are a bit cramped in terms of time. Normally the pope, its about a 20 or 30minute meeting with visiting heads of state, but significantly in march of 2014 when pope francis met with president obama, they talked for 50 minutes because these two men got along well and saw eye to eye on Climate Change and those sorts of things. It will be interesting to see how long this meeting lasts given the rather public disagreement on various issues, like the wall between mexico and the United States. The question of muslims and immigrants coming in. And the troubles of the president ial campaign continue now that mr. Trump is President Trump. And there will be an exchange of gifts. What do we know about the gifts . Normally pope francis will give some of his books to visiting heads of state. One of them is a critique of capitalism as it exists in the west. We know President Trump is not a big reader so it may be a symbolic gift. He may not be leafing through it as he flies to brussels or later to the g7 conference. We dont know what gift President Trump will be giving the pope. We see the motorcade pulling up be side the palace. President trump will emerge. Do we expect the pope to raise the issues that have divided them up till now . I think we can expect him to make clear his positions on Climate Change. The pope does believe Climate Change is a reality and is a threat to life as we know it. We know he has been a strong advocate of the need to let refugees in. He is a man who has went to greece, went to referee camps where Syrian Refugees were held and brought several back with him to rome on his airplane. The pope has been a strong advocate for refugee rights. Keep in mind between heads of state diplomatic language is used. The pope has been blunt as has President Trump. President trump has been following a fairly strict script as far as public pronouncement, so we may find this as an attempt to rein him in. Just explain to us what is happening right now as far as protocol. Who are the people greeting him on the red carpet. We saw the first lady arrive as well. Keep in mind the vatican has been doing this for centuries. The protocol is set. The president is met by the popes head of household. He is also pope emeritus private secretary so hes responsible for greeting guests and bringing them up through these renaissance halls which are beautiful but set the stage for the importance of this meeting and the history of this place. I have seen president s walk through there. I saw president obama walking through there amazed and trying to take in the great history of the vatican. Then he walks towards the library where there is an initial meeting and shaking of hands. We really read the tea leaves in this kind of meeting because we dont know exactly what is said between the two during the half hour meeting. We see if the pope is relaxed or stern, who goes towards the other first. We look at those small err signs to get an idea of what is the mood. I think pope francis is a savvy diplomat and will want to try and establish, and has said so himself, a Good Relationship with the president. He realizes they need the president s leadership in the world to accomplish some of the things important to him. The pope, im sure will be taking an easy way into this with President Trump and really just trying to get the measure of the man and perhaps establish himself as somebody to whom the president can also talk openly. The pope has said he would like a sincere discussion. I have seen pope francis in a number of situations with heads of state and he always tries to make them feel at ease. Whether he has differences with them or not, i think his First Priority is that this be a good working relationship. The future of the world depends upon it. Delia, to that point, i know you have talked about longer term that will enable them to pick up the phone and discuss issues. Do we expect anything substantive to emerge between this gathering between the pontiff and the president . Its a good point. Actually, its a bit unpredictable. Pope francis in these meetings likes to take something away. Whether he met with the israeli leaders and president of the palestinian authority, he invited them back for a day of prayer. Sometimes he likes to get a surprise out of a meeting. That may happen in a situation already more established. This is the first meeting. I am not sure we can expect any announcements. It is to establish this relationship. There are a number of issues where the vatican and president work together. And i would imagine they do try to come up with other joint initiatives they can announce to show the world they are establishing this relationship with the trump administration. And that will behoove the trump administration. The vatican has education and charities throughout the world and the u. S. Works closely with them. I think that would be one area you could see Common Ground and joint initiatives. We saw the first lady riding and a veil. I guess that is part of the tradition and protocol. Some would point out she did not wear a head scarf when she visited saudi arabia. I dont know what to read into that. They wear a head scarf, a light one. In saudi arabia we have seen heads of state, female heads of state have not. It is not religious leaders. Here it is the pope, head of the Catholic Church and there is a certain protocol when it comes to this sort of thing. It looks like the guard is escorting them through the hall. I dont know if you can see the images. I cant, but i know they are walking through the klemm clemn hall. It is awe and intimidation. Pope francis lives in a small former hotel. He has these meetings with heads of state in this grand palace. When we were talking earlier about the protocol, the first lady wearing black and wearing a black veil on her head. It would have been a big deal had she not done it. It is important to the vatican, something that has always been done and would be important she followed with that respect in meeting the pope. President obama brought seeds from the white house garden to pope francis. Those were welcomed because the pope likes those simple gestures. They were planted. We will see what President Trump brings him. This procession, if you will, the president and first lady surrounded by officials making their way through the palace, where are they heading . Do they meet the pope in a specific room . They head down a series of long marble corridors and stop and wait in an antechamber, a library where the pope had formal meetings with heads of state. A small press group gets the first shot of the president and pope when they come out and shake hands. The president enters from one door and the pope from another door. They come forward and shake hands and have exchange of few pictures. And then go into the library. We see them sit down for a few minutes and then the door is closed and they begin their meeting. Pope francis doesnt always hold his meetings here. He often holds them near the hotel where he lives. But that would be for less formal meetings. The heads of state are held here. Since the fifth century there has been this palace. They are here for their first facetoface meeting. As delia made clear, these two men could not be more different. The man in white, a man of humility. They also have something in common. They both have a tendency to speak their minds and go off script. It should be interesting for 30 minutes. Some they have met for 10 minutes and president obama 50 minutes. It was interesting as he walked through the gilded halls. It appeared he was taking it in. Most people would be intimidated by the ornate surroundings. The president said it was a great honor to be getting this audience with the pope. We are looking at the language. The pope is smiling. There is the first lady. She is wearing her veil. It is the custom, protocol, out of respect to the holy father that the first lady is in fact wearing a veil with the pontiff. This is a meeting. The first lady is now entering the room. Heading, one would expect, to the area that the pope and the president are gathered in. We should also point out it is wednesday, of course. In italy it is wednesday already and there will be the general audience the pope holds. About an hour and a half. A busy day for the pope. It is interesting about the timing of this meeting. We did talk about it briefly when the president s motorcade arrived. There was no rome stop initially on the president s schedule. How did the vatican get onto the itinery and how did it end up that donald trump was meeting with pope francis at 8 30 on a wednesday morning. If you are asking me, because of the schedule. This is a packed trip for President Trump. Saudi arabia, italy, brussels, back to italy, sicily for the g7 meeting. Also what the white house had in mind was to touch base with the three major religions, it became clear that would have to be one of the parts of this nineday trip. But, of course, the timing is a little unusual because normally the pope doesnt meet with heads of state at 8 30 in the morning. Normally its later in the day, but today hes busy with his normal general audience. That begins in his normal 1 25. There is a time limit for how long the meeting can be. They allowed them to fit it in and they can say we are focusing on the three religions that began in the middle east and now are Touching Base with the Catholic Church. They did just see images of the first daughter and her husband. They, too, are accompanying the president on this visit to the vatican. The president s daughter will miss with the Catholic Community to discuss human traffic. So ivanka will be having meetings and will have business to conduct. Feuds between u. S. President s and pope are not unh
