a campaign to help them hold the world can cup in 2022. there's turbulence for the airlines. >> absolutely. the industry may be set for record profits this year, but the airline has cut a forecast how big the profits will be. the blame, a slow down in china. we're going to look at the economic head winds facing the global carrier. hello. welcome everyone to "gmt." it is midday here in london, 7:00 a.m. washington, 1:00 in the afternoon in madrid where the spanish king juan carlos has announced he's abdicating. he's been on the thrown nearly 40 years now. the king has said he will step down in favor of his son crown

prince felipe. we haven't had a reason yet for the decision. we're getting reports from madrid that suggest the king made a decision based on politics rather than ill health. we are expecting a statement from the king at any moment. we'll bring that to you as soon as it happens. this is a king that guided spain from dictatorship to democracy. he has had a series of scandals surrounding him and his family. let's take you to madrid to our journalist covering the story extensively. we're waiting for a statement from the king. what are the reasons expected as to why he's abdicating now? >> the most obviously or visible one we can see is the health of the king. he's 76, been in poor health over the last four years. he's undergone five operations in two years alone. in public he looks like a frail

figure. he hasn't looked like the fresh, vigorous young king that took the thrown in the mid 70s at all. that doesn't seem to be the only reason by any means. as you mention there are political reasons talked about. those seem to be connected to scandals that the royal family and king have been suffering over the last couple of years. most notably when it emerged he had been elephant you wanting when the spanish economy was hitting rock bottom spring 2012. that was bad for him personally. also his son-in-law -- >> sorry to interrupt you. we are getting the statement from king carlos. let's listen in. >> guy, you can see the scene

we're getting from madrid. we are expecting the king at the palace to give a statement. at one point we thought it would be live. now we understand it will just be a statement. would you say people will be surprised by this decision or were the spanish people expecting it? >> i think a lot of people were expecting it although it is obviously monexpected. a third felt he should abdicate because of health issues and scandals that perhaps it was time for him to step down. i think a lot of people will think this is the right decision even though he has in the past been a popular figure. >> how about the crowned prince. he's been more popular in recent years? >> that's right. if you compare the two they're different in terms of image. prince felipe is popular indeed. he's 46, well traveled, well

educated. he's prepared for this role for a long time. he hasn't been tainted by any of those scandals, corruption scandals. in terms of image, he's very pleased. he seems prepared for this role. >> guy, would you say spaniards are keen on the monarchy in general? many say for years people were keen on carlos not the royal family in general. >> that's right. for a long time people talked about supporting the king because of who he was as a character, personality rather than the monarchy overall. there is a certain degree of truth in that. he was a big character in spanish public life. he was the monarchy on his own. >> just to interrupt you again. we are now getting a picture. here is the spanish king. >> translator: let you know with great emotion i have made a very

important decision and reasons for such a decision. when i was proclaimed king almost four decades ago, i undertook to serve the general interests of spain with the purpose that citizens became the protagonist of their own destiny. now our nation should become a modern democracy fully integrated into europe. i decided then to undertake this task which enabled the citizenship to select their legitimate representatives and to take spain forward. that's something we need sodded much. today when i look back i cannot feel but great pride and gratitude towards you. pride because of all the good things we have managed together

during these years and gratitude for the support you have given me so that my kingdom started when i was very young and at a very difficult period. we have now had a long period of peace, freedom, stability, progress. faithful to the political desires of my fatherly king of barcelona, i have decided to be the king of all the spanish people. i have felt identified and committed to all your aspirations. i have enjoyed your successes and suffered when pain or frustration have overcome you. the long and deep financial crisis that we are going through has left its mark on the social fabric, but it is also showing the road to the future which is full of hope. these difficult years have

enabled us to have critical balance of our imitations as a society and mistakes. on the other hand they have really stirred up the conscious that we have been able to do, what we have been and what we are, a great nation. all this has a wakened in us an impulse for renewal for correcting mistakes to open up the road to a better future. in the preparation of that future, a new generation demands the main road, the same that different social junction in our history belonged to my generation. today a new generation must be at the forefront. younger people with new energies

to determine to undertake the reforms that the present juncture demands of us and face with renewed intensity and dedication. the challenges of tomorrow. my ambition has been to contribute to the welfare and freedom of all spanish people. i want the best for spain, a country to which i have devoted all my life and put service for spain all capacity, all my work. my son felipe who is heir to the thrown. he is the incarnation of stability. when i turned 76 in january, i decided that the moment was ready to prepare for passing the baton to somebody who can insure

that stability. the prince is mature, prepared, and has a sense of responsibility. all necessary to assume the leadership of the state and open a new era of hope where the experience he has acquired and the impulse forward of a new generation go together. he will count on the support of his wife for all these reasons in order to give the spanish people the best service. as i have recovered physically, i have decided to put an end to my reign and abdicate to spanish crown. i'm asking the corpus to provide

constitutional means for the transfer of the crown. i have informed the president of the government this morning, and i wish to express gratitude to spanish people, all the people who have been in power, who have manned the institution in my reign and those that have helped me with generosity and loyalty. my gratitude goes to the queen who's support has always been there for me. i will always hold spain in the depths of my heart. >> just hearing there from the spanish king juan carlos, former king who have just abdicated announcing reasons to the spanish people. he'll now be handing over to crown prince felipe, his son who's been groomed many years.

our diplomatic correspondent is with me now. remarkable moment for spain. this is a king that's been so popular over the years. he was never just a ceremonial figure. he was an important part of spanish history. >> huge popularity. that's waned significantly in various can years because of scandals of one kind or another. to think back, spain has become a normal european country. it's almost impossible for many people to remember. if you think back, carlos took over just a few days after the death of general franco. franco was a military dictator, the man who's side had won the spanish civil war. he was the ally of hitler. spain was an isolated country kept in some ways at arm's reach by many other countries.

his role was crucial no shepherd spain into what he put normal democracy integrated into the main stream. the country became member of the european union and nato alliance. it was also important when there was a coup against that spanish democracy in 1981, attempted coup, carlos' role was crucial for the democracy insuring the spanish democracy continues. that's 40 years ago nearly. an absolutely crucial role at the time. he simply wasn't just a figure. >> he was reflecting upon young people that probably don't remember that time. spain is still in the grip of a deep financial crisis. he says there has been a long deep financial crisis. the road to the future is full of hope. he looks forward to this period of stability ahead.

he said he wanted to correct the mistakes. that's not the road to a better future. probably reflecting on some of the scandals in the royal family recently. >> i think you put your finger on acknowledgment of what has gone wrong. he talked about the impulse for renewal and also correcting mistakes and therefore the need to hand over to a new generation. you talked about the economic crisis. in between the arrival of democracy and economic crisis, there was a period of extraordinary economic growth, modernization and so on. really he has seen through quite an extraordinary change in spanish life and spanish society. as you say now, it's left his son who is younger but no spring chicken necessarily, in his 40s. he's very well trained and educated in canada, diplomatic college and in the united states

i think. i may be browrong. he speaks a number of foreign languages. as his father has become increasingly frail, he has taken more official duties himself. >> thank you very much for joining us. just a final few words from the king of course. he said the king should be at the forefront. he says i'm passing stability in spain. we'll keep following the story here on bbc world news and continue to bring you reaction from spain. do stay with us. er ] whether it takes 200,000 parts, ♪ 800,000 hours of supercomputing time, 3 million lines of code, 40,000 sets of eyes, or a million sleepless nights. whether it's building the world's most advanced satellite, the space station, or the next leap in unmanned systems. at boeing, one thing never changes. our passion to make it real. ♪

the afghan government has condemned a prisoner swap that freed an american soldier in exchange for five senior taliban militants held in guantanamo bay. senior republicans are concerned about exchanging the militants described by john mccain as the

hardest of hard core. the prisoners have been released into custody. that has outraged afghanistan who says handing them to a third country violates international law. the american soldier bowe bergdahl is recovering in germany at a hospital after spending five years in captivity. let's take you to kabul. why are they so angry in kabul? is it because there's violation of international law or the fact they only found out about the exchange after it happened? >> i think it's both. the fact the afghan government was not told and found out after the deal had taken place. i'm told the afghan government found through the media. the foreign ministry is saying look, these are afghan citizens. we're a obliged by law to look

after them. they should not have been handed to a third country. officials you speak to don't think that. they think they're dangerous taliban leaders and commanders. all of them had a close relationship, trusted confidants. if they make it to afghanistan or manage to stay in touch, they could at least get funding and re-establish all contacts. they're a security nightmare. we also now understand when the swap took place saturday, one day of cease fire was agreed to between the u.s. and network and province on the border. >> thanks very much for that there kabul. let's talk now to professor, former eu diplomat in afghanistan and someone that spent two decades in the country. thank you for being with us.

do you agree this is a security might marry? >> i think it's a victory for common sense. i have studied all of these five men. they're basically five graying middle aged men who were active in the war before last during the civil war of the 1990s. they've been held in jail without being convicted for 13 years. the u.s. was scratching its head about what's to do with them as the u.s. pulled out forces from afghanistan. finally it got an opportunity actual throw get something useful out of them. >> professor, you believe the men themselves are not dangerous, but what about the fact people are concerned this is going to em bolden the taliban? >> both the states involved have routinely be releasing talibans

with who had been captured off the battle field. they've been releasing them with no safeguards whatsoever. in this case, these are people who have not been involved in the current conflict and who instead have been transferred where they have returned to roles. unlike the practice of the president established by pakistan, the u.s. managed to get a guarantee of good behavior. >> you don't think this is saying to taliban, you can snatch a soldier and he or she can be used as a bargaining chip? >> absolutely impossible. this person has been held five years. i advised the taliban to cut a deal earlier. they failed to get anything out of them the past five years.

i think the taliban leadership don't consider this a victory at all. they're probably going to ask why did he get sol they knew the u.s. would have to release these any way. i have studied these people. i know their role. one was head of the taliban army in the 1990s. i think john mccain has got reasons for saying in u.s. politics he wants to keep the pressure on the democratic administration. if we evaluate this according to facts, according to who these people are, they are significance members of the taliban movement. they have not been involved in the insurgencinsurgency. there's no evidence they have capacity to contribute to the ongoing conflict. >> thank you for joining us with

those thoughts. senior figures in football say there could be a new vote for the location of the 2022 world cup. this is after allegations in the british newspaper that officials were paid 3 million pounds for their support for qatar. the organizers of the world cup are meeting a fifa investigator today as part of the inquiry. the man at the center of the allegations has no official or unofficial role in the bid. they say they're confident any inqui inquiry will conclude they hold the right. >> thank you very much for joining us. what do you think should happen now? >> i think obviously these matters have got to be investigated fully. the question now is about the governments at the international level. do we really have confidence in fifa to be able to investigate itself and come to an honest

conclusion? the answer to that i think is no. we're talking about a real fundamental shift in the way it's structured,s the way decisions are taken. do we have confidence as the ed of the change? i don't think we do. i think there's fundamental change needed as a result of this. >> you've got angry people in the u.s., australia, japan, south korea also bidding to host the world cup. should this be rerun? >> if these are correct allegations of course it should be rerun. these are serious allegations of corruption. the decision to hold it against all the advice from the officials that were advised by the executive as whether it was safe and sensible to have the world cup in the summer in qatar. that decision in itself is worthy of being investigated and a rerun let alone the issues

around corruption. it's peeling back like the layers of an onion. this is a constant string. this world cup that starts in over a couple week's time, faith has been overwhelmed by the scandal. >> they've spent so much time and money on this already. they deny any allegations. we could be looking at them taking fifa to court. >> that's one of the nations that feel they lost out as a result of what's gone on. they'll have to look at the evidence and make a decision as to whether they have a case to do that. you know, if this corruption is correct, we've got corruption on an international scale. who takes responsibility for investigating those actions if they're criminal? we have a corporate body with no

shareholders. >> i'm sorry to interrupt you. thank you for your thoughts there. do stay with us here on "gmt." plenty more to come. listen up, thunder dragons, it's time to get a hotel. hey, razor. check this out. we can save big with priceline express deals. hey you know what man, these guys aint no dragons. they're cool. these deals are legit. yeah, we're cool. she's cool. we're cool. priceline express deals are totally legit.

changing world of the way we communicate. >> it's not fair. today for the young people it's all about instant messages and social media. of course we're going to ask. e-mail is now old school. how do companies keep up with the latest tech trend? it's being described as the most significant plan to combat global warming ever in the united states. in just a few hours, president barack obama and the environmental protection agency are going to announce fresh targets to cut pollution from power plants significantly by 2020. environmentalists are haling the measure as a victory. opponents say it could have a damaging economic effect especially coal producing areas. we went to coal country in west virginia to investigate. >> america produces more green

house gases than any other country in the world but produces more than double per person than china does. 40% of those green house emissions come from energy production plants. this one in west virginia burns an incredible 16,000 tons of coal each day when working full capacity providing electricity to 2 million homes. president barack obama is about to announce rules significant in american history in terms of trying to limit climate change. he's going to talk about trying to cap the amount of carbon dioxide capped by plants like this one. it's pleased environmentalists but upset many in the coal industry. in west virginia it's not just about power production. this beautiful day which looks a lot like this sets on huge coal reserves. the thought here is the amount

of coal is decreased then thousands upon thousands of miners and others associated with l lose their jobs. it's clear president barack obama did something about climate change. this will create more opportunities in other sectors like renewable energies. having spoke ton people here in west virginia over the past couple of days, it seems they're not going to give up on an increasingly bitter fight. >> a hugely controversial issue in america. let's talk about the economics of climate change. he was advisor to former prime minister tony blair to break gridlock on global warming. good morning. >> within the context of the united states it is. for many years united states didn't have policy on climate

change. president barack obama in 2009 declared u.s. emissions would fall by 17% by 2020. this is a key part of that today in the announcement. they switched from coal to gas. the reception has cut emissions as well. this is the bit to get them to their target. >> we can see the president barack obama legacy building. there's certainly opposition. will he get it through congress? >> he has said if congress overrides it he will use veto and push it through using executive power. the challenge is getting them as far as they need to by 2020. they have a much more ambitious target by 2050 as the rest of the world does. >> is there a way he can frame the message given that it is divided? >> he has started framing this partly, the health issue. it's not only a measure to stop

climate change. it's emissions from power plants affecting young and very old people. he started that to make it a health issue. in some areas solar power is already competitive -- >> people just don't buy it. >> except parts of america are already agreeing. we saw the electric vehicle tesla was the car of the year last year. we're seeing a vibrant solar industry. part of the country you wouldn't expect progress, dakota thriving by building wind farms. there are already examples of green economy working and growing fast in the rest of the economy. >> how does shell gas play in that? would he attempt a plan like this? >> shell gas has reduced emissions in the u.s. that's a temporary fix.

people are reigning back hopes they had years ago. projections are that emissions will start rising again by 2025. they're going to need to do more to stop this. >> what about carbon training? is that an option for the u.s.? >> it's already tried in nine states. california, quebec, canada have a joined commissions scheme. there's a push back against it. it's shown in my places it's the most efficient way of reducing emissions. i expect it to come back on the agenda. >> thank you very much. boko haram's campaign of violence has forced many schools to shut down in northeast nigeria over the past four years. more than 200 schoolgirls are in captivity seven weeks after being abducted by the terrorist group. they were already extremely low in the north but now there are efforts to reform the schools so

that millions of children can get a broader education. will ross reports now from the city that has been attacked in the past by boko haram. >> reporter: not all classrooms look the same here. you won't always find desks or chairs. some aren't rooms at all. there is though a massive hunger to learn. a staggering 11 million children in the north do not get any formal education beyond learning the ka ran. minimum texts is a part of growing up here. >> these schools have been around generations. there are 800 students at this one. things are changing slowly. if a few minutes time, several dozen will break away and have classes in numerals and

literacy. at another religious school, children are getting used to a varied diet after studies show it's time for mass and english. now we're jumping, they sing. a novel way of learning the present tense. 12-year-old here has big ambitions to become a doctor. >> translator: those children who don't go to school just stay at home. sometimes they sell on the streets f. they're asked to write something short and simple, they can't. i can read and write now. >> her grandfather is convinced her education is good news for the whole community. >> translator: if this young girl gets an education, it's like educating our whole society. my grandfather will influence her peers to go to school. >> these days, boko haram is actively preventing children

from getting an education. the extremist group who's name means western education is forbidden is holding more than 200 schoolgirls. it wants an a islamic education for boys only. >> the state governor has thrown support to changes to schools. foreign donors are also helping. he is worried uneducated youth may be recruited by troops like boko haram. >> what we are doing here is saying the education is relevant. islamic education is relevant. of course we have to go side by side. that's the only way really that we can make progress in this part of the country. >> improving education was already an immense task even before boko haram started the brutal a campaign of violence. everyday people are working hard here to give all children a

fighting chance of fulfilling their dreams. will ross, bbc world news, kano northern nigeria. aaron joins us now with business. you aren't going to tell me i can't send e-mails anymore? >> you can e-mail, just don't fax. just the time we were getting the hang of e-mails -- well some of us. my dad will be distraught when i tell him e-mails are a thing of the past. has social media killed off e-mails? universities are resorting to social media experts for students failing to check e-mail. why? they're all on facebook, snap chat or twitter. experts say it's a problem in the work place where the young and old may be talking the same language but different platforms. lee bryant, the consultant, i

asked him, really are e-mails a thing of the past? listen to this. >> we're seeing a massive shift to real time messaging. over a billion accounts exist for chat apps in japan. e-mail is a huge strain on eternal official say. we've all seen the corporate spam that flies around. everybody getting copied in to organize something as a meeting. real time gives you the chance to message just the people you kne need to in the context. >> you can tweet me on that. that would be a thing. let's switch gears all together. airlines are now expected to make profits of $18 billion. not bad but down from the $18.7

billion it forecasted in march. this blames concerns about ch a china's economic growth as well as political risks. in a minute we'll talk to the airline's expert. first tony gives insight into today's report. >> consolidation in north america. revenues on the side growing. all these elements are coming together to push up the bottom line. revenues of $700 billion, airlines make profit of $18 billion. that means the profit margin is about 2.5%. if you like the profitability for airlines, they're collecting less than $6 a passenger. they're making very thin profits. >> they are indeed.

let's get more on this. the executive vice president of the aviation group joining us from london. thanks to have you on the program as always. john, we've rubbed shoulders at these events. we've been to many over the past years. margins, thin profits, it never changes. >> aaron, you're right. it's been the same message and rhetoric ten years, maybe even 15 a. you know, the industry per se is not addressing the real fundamentals it needs to such as ownership, particularly foreign ownership investment airlines, taxation high on the agenda not being addressed. >> what's interest is it doesn't encompass the hundreds if not thousands of low cost carriers. >> they're quite profitable.

they seem to get it right. is that right? >> absolutely. if you look at quite recently those profitable in asia and new carriers such as norwegian. they've been profitable. what we're now actually seeing is some of those what we term legacy carriers actually beginning to replicate business practices low cost airlines have had. >> can i also ask you this john. an airline executive at this going on as we speak said and i'm going to quote here. there are quite a few airlines here that shouldn't be around. again, it's the old saying, are there too many airlines flying the skies at moment? >> there's too many airlines. you know, that was the quote from last year and the year before. there's a raft of central european carrier who is

constantly struggle in one direction or another. we have one very close to investment from the national carrier of abidabe. more and more continue to struggle. unless we allow foreign ownership, these carriers continue to be around. they're going to drag down the oval efficiency of the industry. >> some suggests we could see five, ten, 20 big global brands dominating. do you think that? >> there will be global brands. we have global brands in disguise any way. as in my market, there's access to enter, freedom of disguise.

we'll have healthy competition. let's encourage it from the beginning and create an aviation industry everyone involved in hit can be proud about. >> absolutely. john saying that, i'll talk to you next year when we talk abiliabout the same messages. than thanks john. tweet me and i'll tweet you back. >> sending you a tweet right now. >> right now? >> yep. we'll just tweet each other. >> if an airline has to make an emergency landing it's costly. i found a story. u.s. airlines flight had to make an emergency landing. why? a dog on board did two pops in the aisle. it made people quite nauseated. it's a true story. had to make a landing. >> wow. the things you learn aaron. thanks so much. >> do stay with us on bbc world news. still to come, how this cuban

of recruiting militants for fighting in syria. this comes after the frenchman was held by police investigated in the murder at the jewish museum. >> christian, four arrested, a big sweep against recruiters. how worried are authorities about then going off to syria and of course coming back again? >> they're very worried. this is the biggest muslim population in europe. it's not entirely a french problem yet, but if some 1500 fighters in the area at the moment, 780 are french. these arrested today may not be directly related to shooting in brussels. they are people who are recruiting. they may be in the same circle as the suspect. they may fit the same profile. the point the ministry is making today on french radio stations

is all meeting in brussels thursday need to get together and work out how this is happening. who is recruiting them, where is the money coming from, how are they traveling? what happens when they come back from syria? how are they picked back up and how is intelligence shared? that's one of the things they're looking at this week. >> anything happening at grass roots level to warn them of what would happen? >> there's a disturbing parallel to the man who shot dead seven people in 2012. like the man that's been arrested, he was in prison in 2007-08. the feeling was he was radicalized in prison and making contacts on his release. there's a question mark for the foreign intelligence service as to why he then slipped off the

r radar. from the grass roots level, they're looking at overcrowding in prison. they're looking at alternative sentences for muslims that go into prisons to stop this sort of thing from happening. one warden i spoke to last summer said he couldn't put enough wardens to get them out of their cells long enough. that is a very big issue i think. the other thing is networks, these states in the areas, police need to get in there and speak to people that form opinions in these communities. of course they have to work out how far and wide the networks spread. i'm sure there's internet based radicalization going on here j. thanks for joining us from paris. israeli warplanes have attacked targets in the garza strip after militants fired rockets into israel. the israeli raid took place

there's a lot of hardship there. i had to find a better life for my daughter. so i started to train as a wind surfer to get ready to come to the u.s. i had to sell almost all my belongings. i only kept my bed, fan and wind surfing kit. there was a group of us with the same idea. all we had to do was train hard and get ready for the unknown. we didn't really know what to expect on the florida straights. i was only carrying a bottle of water and around ten sweets. the trip was supposed to take five or six hours. i knew i could reach speeds up to 50 or 60 kilometers per hour with that board. i didn't expect to have so many problems. after four days at sea, i began to get used to it. i rationed water and had a sip

everyday. one night i started to hallucinate. i thought i was in a forest. i was confident about my roots thanks to a compass i had on my wrist. it kept me on the right path. i got to the keys on my right. there was a beach where someone found me. some fishermen were passing very close to me. they saw me and ask if i was a rafter. i said no, i'm just very thirsty. please, have you got water. they called the coast guard. they took me by boat to an ambulance waiting for me in key west and went straight to a hospital. i was in very bad shape dehydrated. i think everything will go well for me here. i enjoy work. i like the challenge of being in the developed country that gives the opportunity to work honestly and live like a person.
