well is it weather online we were in hurricane. almost like thirty six hours these are the things that has to address or if you join us on sect. but. this is a dialogue tweet us with hash tag stream and one of your pitches might make the next show join the global conversation at this time on al-jazeera. u.s. president donald trump arrives in las vegas to meet survivors of sunday's shooting which police say was planned in great detail.

on our intake of the live from london also coming up. i have never considered leaving this post rex tillerson denies reports he wanted to resign as u.s. state of the tensions with trump. spain's stock market takes a hit as catalonia moves ahead with plans to declare independence. and a turkish court finds forty two former soldiers guilty of trying to kill president and a one in an attempted coup. let's take you straight to barcelona now where the catalan regional president carlos bridge one is speaking about sunday's independence referendum let's listen in. and flex from spain and. rejecting their brians all together at once.

the population concentrated in the pacific my number. of. people as the militia that got them to go to linus. i don't know if. you were very very brave just today or talents in a civilized strike. but i think you have been if you had been exposed to feed daily tea to peaceful behavior after you but amazed you and your going. for as much violence as some want to put on decent. but. that hoss been criticised for many people and i'm from many europeans and. we have if i have you to be to keep together even more. ok. i'm going to say not to show what i think of. your part of you. do not believe

that the. tree doesn't like cowards just like you and you go on and keep on behaving in a c.v. uncompromising mana. but isn't that what i mean because you're going to warn you some try to pursue their catalonian course illegal but i thought you wouldn't. she mixed up with a lot of that it got. so bad either. it cannot be possible to stop relation to express themselves and to vote for if really. what we have done what we do what we do is what many other relations many other countries often don't know before i will be doing in the future. to express themselves. and these instead of be of going against it should be understood but. i thank you to.

respond you see the sense the hospice and they solidarity with us in discourse what i mean. surely spanish authorities should explain what is really happening in catalonia right now. we know it is about politic model it's complex i mean but i'm grateful for the form of many many people to support the cotton and population. indications. that don't have any problem with the language we speak with other cultures is. and i want to just take this as a contribution to the whole of the spanish state from a. couple

of. part of the of what their head of state wanted to transmit to most of the population we don't sherry. and what the king said as well we do not share he said that opinion they are going to ignore eighteen. catalans had protests about the. police and violence. because he didn't tell us to respect mourner king. and just say they don't want to criticise is strongly that what we have done.

will. probably give the monarchy has been. a problem supporting the spanish government and these trying to make things a bit more. harmony to make things calm down. and. you know. there was a while but you know people have come up just today with your decision you deceived and many many catalans. and the qataris where spectrum from you and some other tone of voice is very surprising in the gutter on your government but . we want to protect the whole of the city since all the citizens and i to respect all

civilization and. we all compromise i did beginning of or government we're going to you. know. we are a government we we we know that we ate from the compromise of the way we want to make things in this process is run amuck. this moment i asked for mediation order and we have received some some proposals for made mediation with me. but in the rhythm of your fuel and all of those offer understand that i'm open to a process of making more for my part of the. problem. is part of her part of the us to be open to negotiation with them of your view

and i may do mediation options. but of course i mean what in the of brics can be an engine for a good deal for the what are we going to be there because you know that all of. this process has to be taken from a political point of view and from the malaysian point of view you know from the force point of view. and if you will that last sunday we made it to. do that and a referendum and even though the hard situation in which it took place is. almost about us and in the following in the days that we follow we will show or best face and we have to accept their results of the referendum. and. we don't want violence i told. you so.

we have to have keep our dignity. listening there to the catalan leader talking about to the referendum on independence for the region for the catalan region he said that he is open to a process of mediation after a vote which is prove decisive he also criticized the reaction from the head of state and also from the king in which you remember the king came out strongly against the capital and catalonia thirty criticizing their irresponsible conduct and he said that it was it cannot be possible to stop a population voting freely and he also insisted that they don't want violence let's bring in karl penhall who joins us live from barcelona so we're hearing some of the reaction there from the catalan leader what do you make of it. i think there are two things to take into account here laura and i think the first thing is the tone

of this speech i wouldn't say it was a conciliatory speech but it was a very clear and calm speech that really contrasts last night twenty four hours ago with the king's speech who had a very strong strong tone was jabbing his finger as he was warning cats alliance to step back into line and calling on other political parties to let catalonia feel the full effect of the law here we heard college pushed him on saying that he didn't accept what both the spanish government and the spanish king had said about the legality of the referendum but he did say you know first of all we have to respect the results of the referendum that really is essentially the cattle thora the saying they will push ahead with the declaration of independence but he also put in the door and said look we are open to mediation and negotiation now what we understand the catalan authorities would be open to would be some mediation efforts that then lead to some kind of a mission to hold

a legally recognized referendum legally recognized by the spanish government there is no sign of course of that so far and even today the european union once again sent signs that it was not prepared to step in and again we heard from whose demand calls to the catalan people to stay calm and really that was their strongest card on sunday as we saw catalan voters standing outside polling stations even in spite of the national police a soul dragging people away leaving elderly people bloodied and taking others away on stretchers there really was very little hint of violence it was a well coordinated but peaceful civil disobedience campaign or called handle thank you very much indeed. with tension boiling over in catalonia so. feigns stock market has taken a hit panicked investors dumped spanish stocks causing the country's benchmark

index the objects thirty five to fall more than two percent drop below ten thousand points of the first time since mid twenty's fifteen at the heart of the eurozone debt crisis. president of the european parliament has urged the spanish government and catalan authorities to open dialogue to defuse the situation and avoid further confrontation violence does not solve anything in politics it is never an answer never a solution and it can never be used as a weapon or instrument you know this is better than anywhere else none of us want to see violence in our society. however. it is of course a duty for any government to uphold the rule of law and this sometimes does require the put portion that use of force.

yes president donald trump has arrived in las vegas in the wake of the worst mass shooting in modern american history he's met survivors and first responders from sunday's attack which left at least fifty eight people dead and more than five hundred injured trump says investigators are learning a lot more about the gunman stephen paddick the sixty four year old killed himself as swat teams closed in on his hotel room. it's going on now to your question who's in this way this was so what so we've heard that to some survivors and more details from that was it. that's right lauren he just wrapped up his visit to the hospital nearby which is credited for saving at least one hundred lives from sunday's massacre there did meet with some of the forty remaining people hospitalized there as well as with family members and with the medical staff the doctors and the nurses he thanked them for their heroism in the sending into that

building and saving so many from also dying fifty eight victims total. from sunday night's massacre now trump is headed toward the police station where he has following visit will be with the civilians and with the first responders who are credited with ushering many more thousands more to safety or delivering those who are wounded to hospitals around the region now trump did say he would not address gun control on this visit but that is a controversial topic here where community members in the wake of this tragedy have also staged a counter event lobbying for this to be finally the event and we've heard this over and over again after each mass shooting in the united states but perhaps this will be the one that tips congress to take some real action in restricting gun control has said he does not wish to discuss that but in his past record he has been very

strongly supported by the national rifle association and has said after previous mass shootings that people would be safer if they armed themselves with even more weapons more and nobody was placed in the investigation. that continues even two days after the event occurred you can see behind me the police tape that is still surrounding this large. crime scene on the fairgrounds just below the mandalay bay hotel the thirty second floor now being combed through by investigators that was the sniper's perch of the gunman still very little is known about his motive and investigation continues. the one person who may have information on the reclusive gunman's motive arrived in the united states on tuesday night f.b.i. agents escorted steven paddocks girlfriend mary lou danley through los angeles airport when she landed from the philippines police say she was overseas during

sunday's shooting but will be questioned about the cache of weapons found in paddocks hotel room and inside the two homes the couple shared currently forty seven firearms have been recovered these firms recovered from three different locations those locations consisted of the hotel room as well as verdi and was skeet nevada. they were purchased in nevada utah california and texas the gunman purchased rifles shotguns and pistols. police have released body camera video of the shootings from the mandalay bay hotel as twenty thousand concert goers ran and hid from the barrage of bullets coming from above police officers struggle to locate the source of the gunfire they fired off and on for somewhere between nine and eleven minutes police say paddick holed up inside a hotel suite on the thirty second floor installed

a camera in the doors people into more in the hallway to monitor the approach of police a hotel security guard was shot in the leg as he neared panic suite swat officers broke in hours later to find he committed suicide we had patrol officers actually working in the other event that the mandalay bay. who heard the shooting and they took it upon themselves to form up into a team into the air will begin ascending the floors and also evacuating hotel guests paddocks family history is also emerging his father benjamin patrick was at one time on the f.b.i.'s most wanted list for bank robbery and theft. stephen paddick can sell has no criminal record and he had no known political or religious affiliations his brother says that he was a reckless but had no propensity to violence all of this adding to the mystery of why he's so meticulously planned this attack and why he desired to kill so many

more and why does your question thank you very much indeed. for your sector state has been forced to deny media reports that he was considering quitting and had openly referred to president as a moron at a meeting writes to us and made an appearance to refute stories that vice president might pens and although senior officials had to persuade him to stay on in july. to address a few specifics that have been eroni asli reported this morning. the vice president has never had to persuade me to remain as secretary of state because i have never considered leaving this post i have actually that question repeatedly for some reason it continues to be mis reported there's never been a consideration in my mind really i serve at the appointment of the president and i'm here for as long as the president feels i can be useful to achieving his objectives president john has been quick to comment on twitter he's blaming the

news channel n.b.c. for reports that tennison wanted to resign and says they should apologize to the entire country. according to a key has convicted forty two soldiers in a major trial linked to the failed coup in twenty sixteen they're accused of trying to assassinate president richard type at a one forty received life sentences sin and cos you know has a nativist. verdicts have been delivered against some of these suspects accused of being a part of an s.s. nation team targeting the turkish president on the night of the failed coup attempt in july two thousand and sixteen the conviction of their cessna's team as they were dropped is one of the most important following the faired coup because they're all well known president tired on himself is the plaintive and frontalot girl and the us space turkish businessman is accused of organizing the failed coup. only it is hard to get to make this team was sent to kill the president it was clear what

these suspects were accused of and to some of them were red handed it's good that these kind of trials are finished as soon as possible but of course according to the law. the essence case is just one of the hundreds and loss' following the failed coup more than fifty thousand troops are in jail awaiting court proceedings many are accused of being members of the guinness moment which the government says orchestrated the attempted overthrow they come from all sections of society including four hundred eighty one military officers and civilians on trial in ankara they're charged with murder attempted murder and tribes and persecutors say they organized a coup from a military base just outside the capital. in istanbul thirty journalists a newspaper executives are charged with being members of what prosecutors ascribe as an armed terrorist organization. tens of thousands of teachers and public sector

workers have been sacked in a government crackdown and thousands of current and former government workers are under arrest. some of those people who were sacked will remain ploy to after they appealed to the courts. prisons are almost full some courthouses are too small for the high numbers of the fence critic. and when rights organizations blame turkey's leaders are using the coup attempt as an excuse to silence the media and their point but despite the trials arrest and sackings many turks continue to support the government they say they are still angry about the two hundred fifty lives lost during the failed coup attempt. al-jazeera. meanwhile turkey's president is vowing to take decisive steps to stop kurdish leaders declaring an independent state from iraq and that the iranian president hassan rouhani in tehran to discuss kurdish

secession efforts under simmons has more from istanbul. president rouhani and on opposing sides over syria but together in their reaction to the kurdish referendum next door in iraq both turkey and iran have kurdish minority populations both presidents believe any independence move in iraq could cause unrest in their countries and even more instability in the region there's agreement for more cooperation between their own is along with sharing more intelligence and deep terror operations both men had stern faces as they promised action but they weren't specifying what might happen. as far as we concerned iraq is one single country syria is one single country and we do not accept the geographical border changes in any way whatsoever we do not wish to exert this pressure but the wrong decisions made by some of the heads of the kurdish regional

government need to be compensated for. we correspond with the iraqi central government as far as we're concerned this referendum is illegitimate we have already taken certain steps but from this moment on which more decisive steps will be taken. turkey's army is in the third week of military exercises next to the only border crossing. point into northern iraq a small number of iraqi troops joined in last week and they're still there iran has deployed tanks on its border and is also in gauged in joint exercises with iraq this is all intended to increase the pressure on the iraqi kurdish leadership the two presidents may have been short on detail in any further action they plan but that could be tactical they insist that iran turkey and the central government in iraq will act in unison. there appears to be a determination to cut off the iraqi kurdish leadership unless it really now says

the referendum result is isolation is content you know in politics terms in economic terms and also in military terms and those are too strong if we feel our south threatened. that that ankara can. be on the same room in the same room sit on the same table and. think about military options together. but most military observers believe cross border interventions by turkey all ron are unlikely and if more economic sanctions are imposed such as shutting off the kurdish oil pipeline that runs through turkey it wasn't just the kurds. simmons' zero. aid organizations are appealing for four hundred thirty four million dollars to
