under pressure. >> we're going to take action right across the board starting with helping the french on their side of the border we're going to put in more fencing, more resources more sniffer dog teams and more assistance in terms of resources. >> over in calais the situation is complicated by french ferry workers. they're on strike over job cuts. they've blocked roads to the ports. meanwhile more chaotic scenes as migrants in calais succeed getting around security men. they dash towards the terminal. it's these kinds of pictures that have alarmed people in britain. but the number of migrants trying to get in to britain are relatively small given how many are going elsewhere in europe. >> what we're seeing is a symptom of the facts. the vast majority of those

and human. >> right if the egyptian government does not take concrete steps in addressing these political issues no amount of weapons that the u.s. can give in its security relationship can have a fundamental impact on fixing cairo's security problems. >> secretary of state john kerry has already met twice with sisi in the last year. their meetings during the dialogue will be dominated by the security challenges. but there will be a public demonstration of how obama is recalibrating it's ties to a country that it considers an ally. >> the british government has apologized to chinese artist ai wei wei. the british have granted the six-month visa. wei wei was denied because of
