hasen miss here at u.n. headquarters working the phones to key figures in sudan and the region the u.n. is hoping that a mix of its strong rebuke to the military council and some quieter diplomacy will be a way to avoid further bloodshed president trump has tasted the u.s. alliance with britain as a state banquet by queen elizabeth he's on the same visit to the u.k. but despite warm exchanges with royalty president trump has already ruffled feathers with controversial comments made about the london mayor that in baba reports. president trump arrives for a state banquet at buckingham palace hosted by queen elizabeth various members of the royal family business leaders and cabinet ministers were there to his speeches stressing shared history and values mr president as we look to the future i am confident that our common values and shared interests will continue to unite us

8:09 am
will be traveling at least part of the time by road that's when he might get an idea of how unpopular he is among some of the british public when president trump visited the u.k. last year he was met with large protests and the infamous baby balloon he can expect more of the same on tuesday when he goes to downing street and who knows he might actually enjoy it president basically uses the protesters and the statements of people who are leading those protests. in a way to galvanize his support back home his view is you see when i stand up for america people are always going to oppose us we're under siege i'm the only one who really fights for this country. trumps met prince charles and his wife camilla amid speculation the heir to the road might try to convince the president to take the climate crisis seriously and alongside his wife melania he laid a wreath at the tomb of the unknown soldier in westminster abbey of course the long standing military trade and diplomatic ties that constitute the so-called special
8:10 am
relationship don't depend on the president being popular but this is no ordinary presidency so expect more controversy throughout the week al-jazeera london. that is a mark 30 years since the tiananmen square massacre a 7 week standoff between pro-democracy protesters and the chinese government it ended violently when tanks and soldiers entered the square killing many protests the final death toll is still disputed let's go live now to our correspondent in beijing adrian brown and adrian this was a momentous occasion and is being remembered by many around the world and i notice there's been a fairly testy response from the chinese authorities to what's been said by the americans on this occasion. that's right i guess we have to see this anniversary martine in the context of the current friction between china and the united states might pompei or the secretary of state overnight
8:11 am
delivered a statement in which he called on the chinese government to provide a full accounting of the number of people who died on june the 4th here in beijing he also said that in the far western province of shin jang we're seeing a repeat of those human rights abuses talking about the large number of ethnic muslim weekers now being held in so-called reeducation camps all china is hit back swiftly saying that the comments by the secretary of state amounted to a grievous interference in china's internal affairs this is always martine a very sensitive moment for the chinese leadership they continue to remain unrepentant for the actions of the military 30 years ago essentially saying if the army had moved into tournament square to to clear it of protesters then china would have been on the brink of civil war and would never have gone on to be the world's 2nd largest economy and that unrepentant tone is also reflected in state media here
8:12 am
in china interestingly that the state media here normally ignores this anniversary but on this occasion they are referring to what they call the riot and how you know chinese people have really been immunized because of the events that happened in 989 and therefore those events won't happen again well i've been talking to one of the leaders of that student led pro-democracy movement worker she who now lives in exile in taiwan where he's been reflecting 30 years on whether it was all worth it . in the spring of 1989 student leader work i she was in the thick of it confronting authority on the streets arguing with china's leaders in the great hall of the people dressed in hospital but a hunger striking workers she. had been rated the prime minister lee passage when students began occupying tiananmen square they were demanding more accountability
8:13 am
in government and tougher measures against corruption they were joined by doctors teachers judges and journalists from state media the growing movement posing the greatest threat to 40 years of communist rule. work-i she says he never thought it would end the way that it did with the people's liberation army firing on the people. expect that some blood shed. will be hit by the police but. that's what we have expected life. today he lives in exile in taiwan the self-governing island republic the china wants back and he's had a lot of time to reflect on whether it was all worth it i think politically or legally you know rationally speaking we are blameless. but. i don't know. what if there's this
8:14 am
one person or shot and dead. because he heard a speech that given. the army quickly regained control of the streets but no one was quite sure who was really in charge as i reported from beijing at the time meanwhile the men who control the army and perhaps now the government have issued another ominous warning stay off the streets or face the consequences one man certainly didn't seem to care about the consequences yesterday in an extraordinary single act of defiance this young protester brought a column of tanks to a standstill we still don't know his name or if he survived after he was bundled away unclear by who. is just an eye. the day in china will be no public displays of dissent or remembrance china's vast security and surveillance network will see to
8:15 am
that even mothers of students killed in the bloodshed have been told to remain silent as part of the continuing official cover up the chinese leadership still refuses to acknowledge how many people were killed or to express remorse well martín as it was 30 years ago and square remains off limits to foreign journalists as to the question how many people actually recall what happened 30 years ago i in all honesty can answer that but we have to remember that at one stage there were more than a 1000000 students in tiananmen square joined by people from all sorts of professions judges doctors even journalists from state media and of course the students have been cheered on by hundreds of thousands of other people not just here in beijing but in other cities like shanghai chengdu gong show and i don't think they have forgotten i mean anyone who was 10 years old in beijing you know will remember what happened i think 30 years ago as to why the the chinese government you know refuses
8:16 am
to reverse 6 verdict on tiananmen square i think to do that would be to raise questions over its legitimacy so the chinese government i think will continue to stick to its message that this was a counterrevolutionary rebellion that could have taken china to the brink of civil war and i think that's going to be the message that it will put out for as long as the communist party you know remains in power here martin adrian brown thank you very much still looking good after 30 years. lots more to come here and out of here including doctors in the lab say hospitals are now targets of syrian and russian airstrike. and they draw interest by the thousands but a court ruling is threatening the future of these housemaids in kashmir.
