The truth is that there are people 1st of all who are simply saying but there is no rationale for this a low he keeps on suggesting that migrants are coming here they are a threat and that they are dangerous there are also big concerns about ultimately trying to change plans that try to offer asylum try to offer some kind of refuge for people who are genuinely fleeing conflict who are genuinely fleeing threats and he potentially tries to change the law in order to be tougher and immigration could have a real effect on families who are in desperate need and all of this of course as the caravan of migrants continues its progress Yeah we've heard these pretty amazing comments from President from suggesting that this migrant caravan is much bigger than is being reported based on his own assessments he says that he personally is very good at judging crowd sizes and that he feels that really this caravan is much bigger than many people realize he's also suggested that the children and the more those who have been put forward for photographs are deliberately being stage and there's a lot of young men there it should be said from independent reporting there do seem to be a lot of children in this caravan but again it gives you this idea that he believes immigration is something that really will far up his voters and he is determined to try to use it despite the concerns of some Republicans who might feel that there's a danger in doing not and he's made some quite startling threats regarding what might happen if and when they reach the border yeah we're probably best playing your clip of President Trump himself in which he basically says that there is a danger of migrants being fired out if they simply throw stones at anybody throwing stones rocks like they did to Mexico in the Mexican military Mexican police where they barely hurt police and soldiers of Mexico. We will consider that a firearm because there's not much difference when you get hit in the face with a rock which as you know there was very violent a few days ago very very violent that break it was a break in it for a country it broke into Mexico those are the kind of angry and aggressive words that perhaps President Trump was thinking he might shy away from certainly after a week whenever you had those pipe bombs being sent in the post whenever we had the dreadful shootings that happened in Pittsburgh everybody talk then about civility in toning down language some people will say that that isn't. Chris Buckley that Brazil's far right president elect says he will move the country's embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem it was a promise he made during the campaign and he's now repeated it in a television interview. Decided to move its capital to Rio de Janeiro the issue would just be dealt with and other countries would move their embassies over to I don't see any problem in moving the Israeli Embassy I see no problem. Our America is that it's not a Russia explains why Mr Bolton or I was so keen to make this announcement about moving the embassy in Israel or he had an important contribution in his campaign a big part of his vote was from the Christian evangelicals which are they are growing in Brazil is a very strong movement and because of the religious links in the religious history they're very close to Israel they support Israel they travel to Israel regularly in so that's part of their it also is able so Naro maybe because of their Maybe because of his beliefs he had also support from Jewish businessmen in Brazil in his campaign so that's another element but one thing that he said when there was a lot of controversy during the campaign about his remarks the Saudi nice and homophobic and it's somehow racist remarks during the campaign but people overlook his Konami policies a lot and one of the things he said was that he was going to move Brazil away from Latin America from trading with Africa in other countries in turn Brazil into the 1st world and I remember him saying the 1st country he's mentioned he said I want to visit Israel Europe Japan and the United States so he's the 1st country he wants to visit Israel and so is a change of perception and it's a big change in Brazilian foreign policy as well and what is the reaction being to what he said Well the reaction in Brazil wasn't very big because that's a distant problem for Brazil Brazil was debating another appointment that he made he appointed a Cessna Moro a former un to corruption judge to be his justice minister that's what Brazilian people are talking about but in Israel Binyamin Netanyahu the prime minister welcome said it was a brave historic step and that he can see that even going to Mr boy. Also NARAS inauguration ceremony in Brasilia on the 1st of January the this whole thing started earlier on the day when Mr Paulson our gave an interview to a newspaper in Israel and his remarks were very strong he said his role as a sovereign country they have the right to choose their capital in the same way that presume of their capital to Brasilia 96 if they have the right to do that Palestine is not a country therefore they don't have a right to have an embassy and that we know the big controversy about the Palestinian Authority the Palestinians wanting to set up the embassy Mr recently Leonardo Russia that students here now with some of the stories from on used ask reports in the u.s.

Terry Egan reporting this is the news room from the b.b.c. World Service I'm Ben planned the time now is just coming up to $520.00 g.m.t. The u.s. Is accusing China of stealing trade secrets from u.s. Firms and the Attorney General Jeff Sessions says the problem is getting worse and nothing is enough we're not going to take it any more is an acceptable is tampered chatted to join the community of lawful Nations international trade has been good for China but Sheedy must stop those comments were made as the u.s.

For the past 3 years Yemen's civil war has killed at least 10000 people and brought the country to the brink of famine a coalition led by Saudi Arabia intervened in Yemen trying to restore the internationally recognized government to power after who the rebels seized much of the country the senior leader in Yemen has given a rare interview to the b.b.c. Mohammed Ali who see said the situation in Yemen would be different if Saudi atrocities there got as much attention as the killing of the dissident Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi from the capital Sanaa all again reports. Of. The going walkabout in Sanaa with Yemen's who see leadership. And that's what they gave us a guided tour of the ancient city passing tributes to fighters killed in battle of the 7 the. After more than 3 years of war the Who things still have a firm grip on the capital this senior rebel leader Mohamed al Hersey keen to show he's a man of the people who won't hide from the Saudi led coalition do you expect that the Saudis will try and target you at some point with an airstrike. They've tried many times but they've not succeeded what matters is the Yemeni people know us we are worried. When we sat down he said the Saudis had shown the world watch Yemenis already know with the brutal killing of the journalist. Who are for God because if. They just unveiled the face that was already obvious to the Yemeni people the Yemeni people suffer executions and coverups if there was as much coverage for the Yemeni people as I was for Jamal. And if there was coverage of the crimes committed here by the Saudis and the Americans in Yemen would be a different situation today how do you respond to the allegations that you are guilty of human rights abuses yourselves that it's not only the Saudis who are guilty of these things. Independent committees should investigate these crimes whether by us or the coalition they are the only ones you cannot use true and accurate information. I myself have met people here who have told me they were victims of the shelling and of the land mines what would you say to those people. Like we do not to live. There if they proved to invest in some commitments that we have harmed them we are ready to compensate them. For the war weary of Yemen a new threat is looming starvation the United Nations has warned that within months 12000000 innocent civilians could fall victim to a manmade famine the Who thieves blame Saudi blockade. And they say Britain has blood on its hands because it continues to supply arms to the Saudis. The u.k. Is hugely responsible because of its arms sales. The British people should know that these weapons are being used by Saudis who are fighting for sectarian and extremist reasons. Very used by crazy people to strike everywhere breaching humanitarian law. The conflict has become a quagmire and there's no sign of a military victory on the horizon the u.s. Is pushing for a cease fire and a return to peace talks but it's unclear if either side is ready to compromise. That report by all again. The World Health Organization says the number of people dying because of air pollution must be cut by 2 thirds by 2030 it's the target at the end of a global conference on air pollution the 1st of its kind in Geneva this week a w.h.o. Report showed that 93 percent of all children are now exposed to levels of pollution higher than w.h.o. Safe guidelines from Geneva imaging folks reports an estimated 4 and a half 1000000 people die each year from causes directly linked to air pollution to reduce that number by 2 thirds in just 12 years is hugely ambitious but the w.h.o. Wants countries to be bold and act fast it is calling for real effort to reduce dependence on fossil fuels it says health services should lead the way with health workers educating patients and politicians about the damage caused by air pollution the w.h.o. Knows many governments will view this goal is highly unrealistic it no one will disagree with making a link between fossil fuels and wire mint and health but with 9 out of 10 of all children on the planet now breathing dangerously polluted air the w.h.o. Clearly thinks there is no time to waste. Neanderthal children who lived 250000 years ago were amongst the 1st victims of deadly lead poisoning and also lived through more extreme seasonal climate changes that's according to new research which examined and compared the fossilized teeth of 3 children 2 of whom lived in the Neanderthal period and one who was born 5000 years ago the newsroom's Raja to Arica reports researchers from the ICANN University in New York and Griffith University in Australia traced the daily growth lines recorded in their numb a lot of the teeth on unraveled it's hidden history in much the same way as scientists learn about the earth for. Studying the number of rings on old trees during childhood new teeth layers are formed each day capturing chemical signatures using powerful lasers scientists measured quantities of chemical elements contained in the tooth fossils which reveal that 250000 year old Neanderthal children had been exposed to what is now known to be the earliest cases of lead poisoning traditionally it was thought to lead exposure occurred off to industrialize ation but the research now shows it happened prehistorically also Previously scientists found it difficult to tie climate events to Neanderthal lives this new evidence now shows Neanderthal children enjoyed harsher winters and longer illnesses than that of a 5000 year old human child the type of water they drank and nursing period also influenced their early growth scientists said the research gives further insight into the originals of health and disease and what survival was like in extreme frigid temperatures for Neanderthal children who lived a quarter of a 1000000 years ago Roger to Arica reporting a reminder of our main news this hour the Japanese government has announced plans that would allow foreign migrant workers to stay there permanently in a major shift in policy prompted by labor shortages Meanwhile on the other side of the world President Trump has said he wants to deny asylum to anyone entering the United States outside a legal port of entry and that brings us to the end of this edition of The Newsroom from the b.b.c.
