1:38 pm
americans know a strong alliance of free, sovereign and independent nations is the best defence of our freedoms and interests. that is why my administration has demanded that all members of nato finally meet theirfull and fair all members of nato finally meet their full and fair financial obligations. as a result of this insistence, billions of dollars more have begun to pour into nato. in fa ct, have begun to pour into nato. in fact, people are shocked, but billions and billions of dollars more are coming in from countries that in my opinion would not have been paying so quickly. to those who would criticise our tough stance, i would criticise our tough stance, i would point out the united states has demonstrated not only with
1:39 pm
words, but with his actions that we stand firmly behind article five, the mutual defence commitment. words are easy but actions are what matters. for its own protection, and you know this, everybody knows this, everybody has to know this, europe must do more. he called on russia to cease at the sta ble he called on russia to cease at the stable in activities relating to cyber warfare and in syria. we cannot accept those who reject our values and use hatred to justify violence against the innocent. today, the west is also confronted by the powers that seek to test our will, undermine our confidence and challenge our interests. to meet new forms of aggression, including propaganda, financial crime and cyber warfare, we must adapt our
1:40 pm
reliance to compete effectively in new ways and on all new battlefields. we urge russia to seize it destabilising activities in ukraine and elsewhere and support for hostile regimes, including syria and iran, and instead tojoin the community of responsible nations in oui’ community of responsible nations in ourfight against community of responsible nations in our fight against common enemies and in defence of civilisation itself. adam easton is in a warsaw now. he is saying the stakes in effect could not be higher. yes. in fact, he said western civilisation is facing a threat to its very existence, from extremism and terrorism. he used his presence in warsaw, in poland, he used polish history as an example of
1:41 pm
what's to follow. tragic polish history, especially in the second world war, when they face not one but two brazil dictatorships in the nazis and the soviet union. —— brutal dictatorships. he talked about getting knocked down and getting back up again. he used that example. come and unite against the threat facing the western world today. he said a number of things as well that would be very pleasing to the government in warsaw. he made a commitment to article five, the article in the nato treaty which stipulates that if one member of the alliance is attacked, all the others, the other members come to the defence of that member. that is important here, because people in poland and across the region are very concerned about russia and its intentions. donald trump made a rare
1:42 pm
criticism of russia, as well. he said... he called on moscow to cease destabilising activities and end its support for what he called hostile regimes in syria and iran. there was one other issue i thought was very interesting, which will go down very well here, he was talking about the evil of excessive bureaucracy and the need for nations to have their own traditions. he talks about the dignity of every human life and an anti—abortion stance which would go down very well here in roman catholic poland. he said many things in this speech which i think will go down well with his polish audience. i think that was reflected in the response he got. he got a very excitable welcome here in poland.
1:43 pm
they were chanting, usa, usa! he was visibly pleased by the response he got here in poland. adam, thank you. adam easton in warsaw. chairman of the iraq enquiry has told the bbc the iraq enquiry has told the bbc the former prime minster tony blair was not straight with the nation or his enquiry about decisions made in the run—up to the iraq war. iamjoined by i am joined by sir vince cable in westminster. you are not go to say i told you so but that is probably how you feel. the liberal democrats voted against the war. it was criticised at the time but we were clearly right and we still feel the long—term consequences, in terms of political upheaval and the killing that still takes place in iraq. i'm not clear why sirjohn chilcott has felt it necessary to speak again. he reported a year ago and has not said anything fundamentally new. basically tony blair made a terrible
1:44 pm
politicaljudgment but basically tony blair made a terrible political judgment but was basically tony blair made a terrible politicaljudgment but was acting in good faith, that is my understanding of it. ming campbell was ourforeign affairs spokesman at the time and he reiterated that today. are you surprised? he was very careful about his language, wasn't he? tony blair's office is saying that whatever the interpretation of that is, iraq is stilla whatever the interpretation of that is, iraq is still a better place thanit is, iraq is still a better place than it would have been had saddam hussein remained in power. retrospective history is always a mug's game. we can see what has happened. hundreds of thousands of people killed, sectarian conflict. many of the things charles kennedy and my colleagues warned about at the time have indeed happened. it is the time have indeed happened. it is the most terrible mess. i think the point sirjohn chilcott is making is not that tony blair was being dishonest, but that he was emotionally motivated, i think that phrase was used today, but the
1:45 pm
fundamental point is it was a terrible misjudgement with enormous long—term consequences.“ terrible misjudgement with enormous long-term consequences. if he is not straight with the nation does it not come to the same thing? there will bea come to the same thing? there will be a loss of arguments about the nuance and phrases. my view and i think that my colleagues is this was a terrible political mistake. it's destroyed his reputation. but this is not something that was done in bad faith. i think all those people who clamourfor war bad faith. i think all those people who clamour for war crimes and so on, that is not the right way to deal with this. he made a very bad mistake where iraq has paid the price. we lost a lot of lives. these are consequences tony blair will have to live with. what is his legacy? as a whole, if you put the iraq warto legacy? as a whole, if you put the iraq war to one side, he did a lot of positive things. i vividly remember when he left parliament, the whole parliament, labour,
1:46 pm
conservative and the liberal democrats to down to applaud him. in his period in office he did do some positive things. but it has been com pletely positive things. but it has been completely overshadowed by the iraq war, the damage it did, the effect on the country, the division and loss of life. i'm afraid that is his legacy. a lot of people watching right now lost brothers, sisters, pa rents right now lost brothers, sisters, parents in iraq, who are going to say that if we are hearing now tony blair was not straight with the nation, action should be taken against tony blair now. nation, action should be taken against tony blair nowlj nation, action should be taken against tony blair now. i think there will obviously be a certain amount of linguistic analysis about what sirjohn said. he did after a very long period of time produce a magisterial report last year, the summary magisterial report last year, the summary of the evidence available at the time, and which very severely criticised the judgments but did not
1:47 pm
argue that this was done in bad faith sufficient to justify prosecution or action of that kind. i think that is where we have to leave it. but i do understand. if i was a relative of somebody who died in that conflict and was sent into a war which should not have been fought in our name, i can understand why they would remain angry and bitter. but we had to rest with sir john's enquiry. it was a prolonged process and did produce some clear conclusions. thank you very much for your time this afternoon. in a moment a summary your time this afternoon. in a moment a summary of the business news but first, the headlinesjust after a quarter to two. on a visit to poland president trump calls on the west to stand up for their values as the ones about the threats of terrorism and extremism. one year on from the publication of his report the chairman of the iraq enquiry said the then prime minster tony blairfailed to enquiry said the then prime minster tony blair failed to be straight with the people in the run—up to the invasion of iraq in 2003. care

services warned as not being safe enough after drug errors and lack of staff doing a major problem. i am susannah streeter. the business news. banks and other financial services firms need a transition period based on current trading arrangements after the uk leaves the european union — so says the fca's chief executive andrew bailey. he also went on to say in a speech at reuters this morning, that the eu is a strong proponent of free trade, and that it is in no—one's interest to impose trade restrictions. however, speaking to an eu forum in brussels today, mr barnier has warned it will not be possible for the united kingdom to enjoy either "frictionless trade" or the benefits of the single market after brexit. energy regulator ofgem has launched an investigation into whether british gas breached rules on charging termination fees. ofgem licence conditions say energy firms shouldn't charge termination fees if fixed term contract customers switch suppliers within a 49 day period before the expiry of their contract. the eu and japan have reached agreement on a major
1:49 pm
trade deal in brussels. the agreement paves the way for trading in goods without tariff barriers between two of the world's biggest economic areas. among the big winners — the car industry. the eu will scrap a 10% duty onjapanese car imports — while japan will remove barriers to entry for european automakers. household products giant said last night that the cyber attack could lead to a permanent loss of revenue. it disrupted many systems at the company including product such as newer of them and their toll. it affected thousands of computers worldwide, affecting companies globally. cyber security has become one of the most important aspects of business in the 21st century. more from the global head of threat
1:50 pm
prevention at a cyber security company. how did it spread so quickly? 45 minutes to spread through the system. what do you think was the weak point? good afternoon, everybody. thank you for inviting me here, susannah. that attack started several days ago, based on very sophisticated tools. it was a well crafted attack. we believe the tools were leaked and they were significant, damage done not only to leveraged the best entry point on the one hand but on the other and also to allow the attacker to further infiltrate through the network of infected organisations and creating significant damage, shutting down many critical systems. in that case it was primarily related to the accounting system, probably associated and tied to some
1:51 pm
ukrainian accounting system that they were probably doing business with. some people say that we had this cyber attack before the latest one so this cyber attack before the latest one so why are these big multinationals still not making sure the systems are secure to withhold such an attack? i have no doubt that many organisations are investing significant effort and energy into protecting themselves, but u nfortu nately protecting themselves, but unfortunately with the level of sophistication we currently see, there is a need to definitely take further action to protect the organisation. we are talking about a multilayered approach protecting services because of the level of sophistication. the one attack we experienced two months ago was a very generic attack. some may say it was perpetrated by cyber criminals in that case. the recent attack,
1:52 pm
some people might call it... it was probably perpetrated by a cyber agency and definitely required increased measures which organisations must take. thank you very much. shares in associated british foods rose today after a company reported a better than expected —— the company reported better figures than expected. revenues were up better figures than expected. revenues were up by 13%. they said the results were better than forecast because of stronger profit delivery from pie mark. though this has set aside a further £3.5 million to do with customer complaints over flaws in its homes. some customers say hounds were sold unfinished with plumbing and electrical fault. say hounds were sold unfinished with plumbing and electricalfault. they have already set aside £7 million to cover the issue. four for have already set aside £7 million to cover the issue. fourforfour has gone platinum within five days, the
