of helping support those who carried out the attack and accusation the u.s. has denied well that attack has raised tensions inevitably between iran and the usa ahead of this week's u.n. general assembly where both leaders were speaking our diplomatic editor james bays is live for us there from outside the united nations so james the those ongoing tensions likely to be front and center over the coming week. yeah i think the attackers just heightened those tensions iran was always going to be the centerpiece of this meeting over world leaders last year president trump had north korea in his sights very much they're going to be talking about iran this year president trump arriving here at the united nations in the next half an hour or so but it's his big speech on choose state or he's likely to talk about iran the reasons he pulled out of the iran deal and what he says of the things that iran is

doing to destabilize the region and then on wednesday a u.n. security council meeting will be taking place and at that meeting again we expect president trump to focus on iran at that meeting and remember the iranians are also here president rouhani will be here and i think he'll have some tough words to say about saudi the u.s. he and of course the bigger ally the u.s. and james want to some of the other issues that we can expect to hear about this week. i told you that president trump was coming shortly he's coming very soon i have to actually clear this area for a time for the police to sweep the area so you have to leave you right now right totally understand james bays live for us there in the united nations for us tariffs on two hundred billion dollars worth of chinese imports have gone into effect it is the latest and largest round of levies in a growing trade war between the world's two biggest economies the us has now

imposed three rounds of tariffs on a total of two hundred fifty billion dollars worth of chinese goods that means about half of all chinese imports to the u.s. have these levees on them china's already hit the u.s. with tariffs on fifty billion dollars of imports and it's pledged to slap on another sixty billion dollars of american made goods scant hyla has more from beijing. the latest round in this escalating trade war between the united states and china going into effect on monday that's another round of tariffs and very big numbers here two hundred billion dollars worth of chinese goods going into the united states will now be tariff that's in addition to fifty billion they were already implemented before so two hundred fifty billion dollars worth of chinese goods going into the united states will now be tariffs on the other side you have another hundred ten billion dollars being a tariff from the united states going into china now this is the latest in a big round in this ongoing trade war and it's going to be ongoing for quite some

time now because the discussions the negotiations that have been going on this really started in earnest in the summer there have been talks still going on between washington and beijing those now have been scrapped for the time being so that means there's going to be really no progress on that front and what's also interesting president trump is said that last week after he announces two hundred billion dollar round that if china retaliated he will retaliate again essentially in all the products coming into the united states from china he hasn't done that china obviously went back and did retaliate but the president hasn't said anything more on that many feel that that probably won't happen because of the mid-term elections in the united states that if there's going to be another round another imposition of tariffs from the united states probably won't happen until after those elections in mid november but what we do know right now those negotiations have stopped and this is an escalation today going into effect monday going into effect with tariffs on both sides iraq reynolds has more now on how the u.s.

but these majestic creatures along with other marine life are being hunted to supply an unprecedented demand for entertainment in china but we're seeing in china is a very rapid explosive growth would be the labrat marine theme parks and a lot of these places do not have the expertise to be doing the dealing. and inside these popular aquariums we find evidence of widespread neglect and. use. i'm steve cho on this episode a one on one yes we go behind the scenes of china's marine theme parks exposed the dark side they don't want to see. this movie. i see i it's

a very sick and to what extent you're indulging in china i and the stands are until i sent to the stage i don't. i mean i and high flying film i love the crack. pipe and. all these shows have been common in western countries for decades in china aquariums are new and exotic. places where the growing middle class can get close to wild animals and entertain. but for the animals in china's marine theme parks insiders tell us pleasing the crowd have you told. us how.

good your actions when those old ones in. some of the heart. of. the letter and no one ensure you mean tarbush or for all i bought was all i wanted. over two years one on one east investigated china's multibillion dollar aquarium industry. examining more than fifteen marine parks and interviewing more than a dozen insiders we uncovered widespread abuse. knew it was told. russell you're tobis you go around the show. are being worked at two of these koreans training seals and dolphins oh yes i've heard about one thing you want are your ears or your goals or. clear just how close a shot was here how long hot and cold hot and in chickens or as

a whole session lead me to change shanghai about to bully us over the. generations deference hire the sheer sort of ordered off your beyond for fashion round cold weather last year just hi ashley young female hounshell. rather than happy co-operative animals being says he found them often sick and distressed when they weren't performing he was ordered to lock seals in tiny cages and dolphins that would normally swim hundreds of kilometers a day in the wild were constrained in tiny tanks do you turn around to what i found really a chance harnesses running of the war mayhem to until you could how to tell you how often i sat open a program of water try the wheel and patricia you told your children to also tell it to you. don't holler for reporters here who are the war hero george her attention little talk a little bit on t.v. i couldn't have been a oh sure before from the back up and running with the wrong approach would be

a poor boy. park staff tell us beating them with sticks is common practice and that's not all being says the performances are basically punishable. you tell yourself don't know yet are you a child as i had time to do for our time oh yeah. you are welcome to talk to sure you are strictly for all of the real time almost how much better no push to watch what was taught or social social issues we are those who sat in their shoes too when you told me what turns you into. and a pretty miserable death. at one aquarium our investigation found a freezer full of carcass. a secretly recorded conversation with the marine parts that reveals how he died. knowing this.

for a minute. or. the vet goes further asking to keep. high rates of premature deaths under wraps we're going on. more secretly recorded footage reveals six turtles unfed and dumped in bins. we also discover arctic fox is on display in obvious distress. but. this man will call levy was responsible for feeding and caring for animals at a major marine park. the degree of suffering he discovered shocked him with

say is the marine parks failed to provide anything close to adequate care for their animals. have to be able to submerge and these are these guys seem to be sitting on the bottom of the tank and they're halfway out of the water. we show these images today only rose one of the world's most well known marine mammal scientists and. they're swimming in their own feces. that looks like it's like a concentration camp. they're being cruel to these animals to keep them. permanent that's just cruel and it would meet the standards and. or europe. but in china there are no national laws against mistreating animals. for decades naomi's documented the treatment of captive animals around the world.

she and other animal welfare activists have visited dozens of facilities in china and say they've never seen such bad conditions. several of the facilities that i visited were very young they were only five six seven years old. and i was surprised because they looked like they were thirty or forty years old both in the terms of their design was very old fashioned small circle in a circular tanks which just aren't it's not done anymore. and they were just degrading they were. rusting they were chipping they were crumbling. concrete was actually crumbling and the six year old facility. and their crumbling infrastructure is having a devastating impact on the health of animals. in one case dolphins and bellew girls playing with and ingesting paint and other debris.

when they start doing this sort of. repetitive behavior with a found object which is a in this case a paint chip which could be toxic. and is indicative of failed husbandry i mean how many times are they eating paint chips a day. it doesn't have to be a particularly toxic pain for that to become an issue. yes. through well our investigation we found an industry that publicly appears to care for animals. i. was. but in private treats them very differently. for the good of. the genes of parkland. and for. in the fog

on the. nose on chambre. and a lot of people want to share of these profits. the number of aquariums being built is growing astronomically a few years ago there are only a handful of these places in china today there are more than sixty multimillion dollar marine theme parks with about a dozen more being built. nowhere else on the planet have so many marine animals been taken from the wire and put on display. aquariums here each boast of having on average twenty thousand species of marine learning. even moles are getting into the business school workers tell us the treatment there is even worse. this is a never ending cycle of.
