sport with peter in about 30 minutes. the chilean president has cancelled international summits shuttles the next 2 months because of ongoing antigovernment protests demonstrations against the president sebastian pinera as economic policies are extended into a 12th day mr pinera says his country will not host the asia pacific summit next month or the global climate change conference in december the protests across chile said to be the largest in the country in nearly 2 decades more from manuel in santiago chile manuel hey there how significant is this. this is quite significant it's certainly a surprise to many who were expecting there to be some disruption to the upcoming conferences both the asia pacific economic conference taking place later in

november and the u.n. have triple c. . summit regarding climate change those expected to take place in december the announcement by the president to to actually cancel both of these internet very important international summits came as quite a surprise let's take a listen to what the president had to say earlier today. cindy most 11 that we deeply lament the problems and the inconveniences that this decision will have on apec as well as for the clop 25 as the president of all chileans i have to always put the problems in interests of the people there necessities and their hopes 1st. now president putin as decision to cancel the summit he said was based on common sense that common sense referring to the continued on rest taking place in that she lay in the to lay in capital even now as we speak there are demonstrations taking place a large march taking place outside of the presidential palace this is unrest that

has spread to other parts of the country there are other cities that are also having protests that are ongoing now for closer to 2 weeks really now there are a few major impacts to this decision to cancel apec the 1st being the fact that this certainly disrupts a planned meeting between u.s. president donald trump and china's xi jinping who are expected to sign a phase one of a major trade deal to sort of to sort of settle and calm a lot of the anxiety in and fears from the financial markets as to whether or not and the escalating trade war would mean a further delay on a possible trade deal with the united states the white house in washington it did issue a statement today saying that they do plan to move forward with phase one of that trade deal whether or not that's going to take place in a different location in. in washington that remains to be seen the attempt there is to is to call some of these these fears over the escalating trade war there is another concern here regionally and in chile which is the tarnishing of cheerless

reputation as being a global leader a regional leader when when it comes to matters of the economy chile's economic model has been one of a sort of blueprint for the rest of latin america of how a nation can come out of 17 years of brutal dictatorship to become the most developed the most developed nation in the region now again to the protests even now as i mentioned as we speak there's a large protests taking place outside of the presidential palace people are dems are have chosen a day of the week to demonstrate one issue at a time today there are demonstrating against against taxes that they say are only benefiting the wealthy there are planned marches that are taking place the rest of the week and the idea here the unrest the concern over the the reason why a pact and the other summits were cancelled is because there is an anticipation that these that the unrest will continue peter thanks very much let's bring in banda speck he's the founder of chile today he joins us on skype from santiago good

to talk to you again let's just pick up on that point the correspondent was making what is this old all of those do in the round to chile's international standing. wall i think this is a very major damage for chilean foreign affairs because 1st of all like manuals chile has been establishing themselves in the region as a leader as one of the most stable economies as a country with less human rights violations let's say their way or like president pinera said just before the protests started we are noises well with all these protests going on and the government being forced to cancel these events it's obvious that the government or chile in general is not a hands to organize such a summit and in a nearby future will be very difficult for chile to obtain once again the possibility to organize events as these so yes it's a very big damage international stage what do you think happens after the protests

inevitably slow down in a few weeks time well to be honest i see them already slowing down a bit when they started it was the old country taking the streets elder people families everyone going out there right now where you see it's more the students who go out there possibly the less to do with the fact that people have to go back to a normal job but at the moment it's mostly students so they're already slowing down what will happen then is possibly a dialogue with the social movements with all the sectors with the opposition because the demands of the protests and at this moment the most specific demand there's a new constitution do you think that the president mr putin or does genuinely want to stay on because b. he believes he can fix it. yes i think so he has shown 'd with this shuffle of his cabinet that he takes some responsibility but that if he still feels that he can save everything well there are some parliamentarians from the opposition who

believe the contrary to have followed the constitutional accusation against him which could lead at the end to impeachment but at this moment a year if it still feels like he could do some small reforms and there will be enough and looking at the most movement slowing down it might be enough so we will see what happens in the next couple of days will these protests go on or will they slow down as you say. structure as ever many thanks. america the us 2 more american state department officials other nations testifying the impeachment inquiry into the us president bill they were christopher andersen and catherine croft. on the former special envoy to crime kurt volker the pair follow. the national security council official in charge of ukraine policy he testified on tuesday he was the 1st impeachment witness to the cold between trump and the ukrainian president which is at the center of the inquiry white house

correspondent can we help that is in washington. the testimony on wednesday on capitol hill by 2 state department officials are expected to be particularly damaging to the white house once again this is an effort by the democrats to offer further timelines and a deep dive into ukraine policy under the administration of donald trump we expect that at least one of the witnesses will testify that there was a request to withhold military aid to ukraine and that this came at the direction of president trump but all eyes are also on what will take place in the u.s. house of representatives on thursday that's when a vote is expected under the direction of the speaker of the house nancy pelosi to formalize the process impeachment inquiry that's already underway but until now the white house has alleged that this has not been transparent it's been conducted in the shadows this is to counter that narrative so while this is not a vote to impeach president trump what it is is

a vote to formalize the process the testimony will still be under way a request for documents still under way but it now becomes much harder with that vote 2 for the white house to essentially obstruct as the democrats allege no longer will they be able to instruct witnesses that they cannot testify or not provide documents now all of that will become much harder. now supporters of one of pakistan's biggest islamic parties are heading for a mass antigovernment protests in the capital islamabad jimmy it really may islam party has been rallying is followers across the country for so-called freedom march towards islam about is calling for the removal of the prime minister imran khan and holding and your election turns government has been under pressure for months now the state of the poor economy. sent sudan's main opposition leaders says the government has failed to push through a peace deal aimed at ending years of fighting the former rebel leader rick machar

cynthia cold is really the president of the union boeing in geneva is she says the company does have a problem with not listening to the concerns of its stuff. one of the things i seen happening in the culture at boeing is when people speak up engineers speak up and disagree with decisions management those disagreements not been listened to so i am not sure how many engineers actually said you know this isn't a good idea and you got a little indication when you have test pilots so you know it didn't actually tell the f.a.a. what they saw they didn't really completely describe what they were seeing in the simulators so i think there needs to be more open openness and transparency in their design process where with issues are seeing emotion years or less and. i'm just speculating as i wasn't there yet everything i've been reading is the

f.a.a. didn't was not fully aware of how much the aircraft had changed and i think more f.a.a. oversight. would have been warranted in this case and i just think you need to realize i don't need more eyes on this does not mean as i'm just as sions and especially when they have an impact safety and i think there is another changes to the 737 max that it warranted more oversight not less london's fire department has defended its response to the 2017 grenfell tower fire for government inquiry found more lives could have been saved from or we can cross to proper set of you know european broadcast center. peter yes thank you well the report highlighted systematic failures by the fire service including telling residents to stay put in their apartments and wait to be rescued but it also found combustible cladding fitted during building renovations when their regular kitchen

that might profit off well while damning in his criticism of the london fire brigade so martin big the retired judge chairing the inquiry did identify the cladding that was applied to the exterior of the building in a 2016 renovation with a highly combustible polyethylene core as the reason the fire spread so quickly he recommended immediate safety improvements to buildings like grunfeld around the country. the london fire brigade commissioner told the inquiry she would not have done anything differently now says lessons have been learned obviously knowing what we know now about buildings covered. clearly we are doing things differently and we will do things differently until that terrible is removed the scene of horror and prime minister boris johnson said he would act on the facts but there is skepticism

losing support but was forced to form a minority government. johnson's desperate for an outright win but there are no guarantees if we get another hung parliament then what we need to see is whether boris johnson or jeremy corbyn whoever it might be actually has the political skills to govern as a minority other leaders one should do it but so far british politicians sort of grow up thinking that if they get to be prime minister they get to command a majority pliant parliament and maybe they need to do a bit of a reset to how they think about governing. parliament is dissolved automatically 25 working days before a general election that's next wednesday november the 6th the country is heading towards its 3rd election in 5 years a decision that could end the deadlock or deepen the crisis leave barca out 0 westminster 12 migrants have been found alive inside a refrigerated truck in northern belgium the men originally from syria and so down
