this is outside source. president trump pays his first ever visit to the state department in washington for the swearing in of his new secretary of state. i can think of no better person to lead who is as dedicated to public service than our new secretary of state, mike pompeo. but the controversies continue. this time a 2015 letter asserting then candidate trump's so—called "excellent" health was written by none other than the candidate himself, says the dr who signed it. the liverpool—roma champions‘ league semifinal match is under way — we'll look at the security concerns outside of the stadium. another day protest in armenia. and the company at the heart of the facebook data scandal — cambridge analytica announces it's shutting — we'll get all the details.
9:01 pm
mike pompeo has been officially sworn in as the us secretary of state. the president himself attended the ceremony at the state department. this is actually the first time that he's visited the department during his term. president trump called mike pompeo a true american patriot and said he'll change the atmosphere at the state department. here's the president speaking at the swearing in ceremony. he is going to be a fantastic start, a fantastic day. that spirit will only be magnified, only with this man right here. i know that for a fa ct. man right here. i know that for a fact. thank you all for being here. it is great to be with you, the
9:02 pm
extraordinary men and women of the state department. we are profoundly grateful for everything you do for oui’ grateful for everything you do for our country. and you will be doing things that you don't even know about. right now, not even a glimmer in your eyes. and we have a couple of going —— couple going, mike, that people don't know about that are very encouraging. in his first official week as secretary of state mike pompeo has visited belgium, for meetings with nato leaders. he's travelled to the middle east, to visit saudi arabia, israel and jordan. covering topics like the war in yemen, the protests in gaza and the syrian war. and before he was even confirmed in the role he went to north korea to meet kim jong—un. here's what the new top diplomat said today. this responsibility becomes more sobering when we consider the many
9:03 pm
threats to american security and prosperity to our liberty. mr president, i promise you that my tea m president, i promise you that my team andi president, i promise you that my team and i will be unrelenting in confronting these threats. we vote the plate top diplomacy to put the interest of the american people first and we will work to ensure the safety a nd first and we will work to ensure the safety and rights and defend their values. i will make america is a lwa ys values. i will make america is always a respected and principled leader on the world stage. it wasn't just the president there for the ceremony, he arrived with other members of his cabinet — showing a shift for the state department. on that here's barbara plett usher. many of the people he brought in, cabinet secretaries among them and other aides and supporters, they we re other aides and supporters, they were state department people as well. it was interesting but welfare because theatre because he was —— he was interested but updated because he was sworn in last week. he has been making his mark in various ways, the bags we could've done so
9:04 pm
to bring the president to the state department his first visit there. as a demonstration that presidentjohn supports them but also as a demonstration that he will make the state department —— president tromp. elements or important again. mostly an afterthought —— afterthought. he strove ha rd to an afterthought —— afterthought. he strove hard to present —— to represent mr trump's policy decisions. i think it was mike pompeo‘s name —— way of saying that the president is counted him even also say to the state department that i will restore the legitimacy that i will restore the legitimacy that you lost. he did it in a grand way as i said. bringing a high—level granite —— bring in the note —— ministers. military on the sidelines. all not like the usual state department culture we are used to. the message was that he wants to
9:05 pm
bea to. the message was that he wants to be a player and once the state department b12. —— to be one as well. we're keeping the focus on washington because donald trump has been warned by special counsel robert mueller that he could be ordered to testify over alleged russian meddling in the us election. according to the washington post, mr mueller raised the possibility with lawyers in march. the president tweeted in response, "there was no collusion. "it is a hoax. "and there is no obstruction of justice. "that is a setup and trap." he later attacked thejustice department calling it a "rigged system", adding they don't want to turn over documents to congress. i spoke to our north american reporter anthony zurcher a short time ago, and put to him that the "they" donald trump is talking about is his very own people. that is the big issue. what this is about or appears to be about is that
9:06 pm
this is a request from congress for documents relating to say that the worm “— documents relating to say that the worm —— the words used are surveilled carter page. his former adviser. there is documents and the fbi, various investigations into hillary clinton. —— documents relating to investigations into hillary clinton. possibly the handling of the clinton investigation and the handling of the fbi. heavily redacted, he wants on those reductions taken out. he seems to want all of the documents dumped out. his ownjustice department, his own fbi and intelligence community have been resisting some of these —— the releases on these documents on the grounds of national security. we had a development on donald trump's actual legal team because the lawyer, ty cobb, who has been his main legal representative is to step down. just explain to us what happened here. the white house is
9:07 pm
saying and ty cobb is saying it was his time to go, its is retiring. it isa his time to go, its is retiring. it is a national transition to something new. and a former adviser to bill clinton during his impeachment trial in the mid—i9 90s, was also an adviser to vice president dick cheney for some investigations he was submitted to and the 2000s. this —— what we could ta ke and the 2000s. this —— what we could take out of this is that ty cobb presented himself as someone willing to co—operate with robert mueller‘s special counsel. he wanted to provide as many documents possible. this seems to resent a change of pace to a more confrontational attitude towards robert mueller‘s investigation. sarah huckabee centres of the white house came out and said that they will have a new person dealing with the witchhunt investigation. she used the word
9:08 pm
witchhunt and talking about the responsibilities of emmet flood. that was some amazing language for a press secretary. a claim from this man his former dr who says he did not write a letter on the president's health back in 2015. let's have a look at the letter because the letter in question from his dr says is you recall that mr trump's health was astonishingly excellent. his strength is extraordinary including his stamina. more that he was the how this individual ever elected to the presidency. he has not told us media that mr trump actually dictated the letter. he said that the dr would tell him what he could not put in there. the interview follows the claims that the president's bodyguard raided his office earlier this year. records, pictures and
9:09 pm
they could find. they must‘ve been here for 25 to 30 minutes. they credit a lot of chaos. i could not believe anybody was making a big deal about a drug that is to grow his hair would seem just be so important. it certainly is not a breach of medical trust that he take propecia. what's the matter with that? he is watching all of that and washed it. there is an interesting timeline. we have the dr saying he did not write the letter after his offices were raided. after an article published suggesting that the dr had prescribed mr trump with an anti—baldness drug. it is remarkable. it is remarkable and it is certainly a bit of a contention to say that revealing that a patient was taking a prescription medicine is not a breach of medical trust. i think the dr may have some are swinging to do there. but the idea
9:10 pm
that donald trump's bodyguard when he was a businessman and then became a way as employee would show up at this dr‘s office with a lawyer and someone this dr‘s office with a lawyer and someone else to confiscate all the files, he says without the proper paperwork to authorise the release, thatis paperwork to authorise the release, that is amazing. then we go all the way back to this dictated letter in december 2000 15. no one was really convinced was authentic when it said that donald trump would be the healthiest president ever. —— 2015. we find the reality that people were looking into his medical history. his health records when he was running for president. andy response from campaign apparently was all a set up and dictated by donald trump if you can believe the dr. there is a lot going on here and all that pretty remarkable somewhat a lot going on, a lot of different lines coming out. anthony is the men to follow on twitter if you want some clarity. rama is taking on liverpool
9:11 pm
in the champions league. it isn't tightly policed because it seems like these took place. these violent clashes broke out outside anfield last week when both teams last met. one attack left liverpool fan, and dad of three, sean cox in a coma in a critical condition in hospital. police have charged two men in relation to that incident. let's look at liverpool fans. these images. these are liverpool fans being bussed to the ground this afternoon. they were warned not to walk to the stadium alone or to wear visible club colours. it seems many supporters took that the advice. many supporters taking that advice. even british police have been sent to the ground to ensure fan—safety. and it seems to be working. so far there have been no reports of violent incidents. james reynolds is watching the match in rome and gave us this update on security. the rama authorities wanted to make
9:12 pm
sure that there would be no chance encounters between liverpool fans and roma fans. —— roma authorities. some liverpool fans have come to the city without tickets. some of those are at this bar behind me enjoying the fact that liverpool are beating roma and this particular leg and are looking strong in terms of the aggregate tie as well. we're halfway through the first half of the match. but what about after the game finishes? the authorities have a precautionary plan in place which is involving keeping the away fans, several thousand of them in the stadium. long after the match finishes. giving time for the local fans, and the roma fans, to walk away and get out of the neighbourhood and in those liverpool fa ns neighbourhood and in those liverpool fans would be bus back to the centre
9:13 pm
of town. potentially arriving here at the centre of rome after midnight and long after everyone else has dispersed. the key logic behind the security plan is to make sure liverpool fans and roma fans, some the most passionate on either side don't have any chance encounters. having said all of this, it is worth saying that here in the centre of rome, there are tours, romans and liverpool fans watching the game and there is an apartment off. that was james reynolds speaking to me as the match had kicked off. if no one wa nts match had kicked off. if no one wants know the score, turn away now. but so far with 20 minutes left, the score is a drop, 2—2. who keep you updated with other than our website. the company at the heart of the facebook data scandal, cambridge analytica, is closing. the wall streetjournal broke the story. it reports company bosses saying both companies, cambridge analytica and scl group, will shut. this has been confirmed on their
9:14 pm
website. the company website as you can see. they have grimm they grimm have begun insolvency proceedings here in the uk. they have begun insolvency proceedings here in the uk. their statement says the company is ceasing all operations. it, of course, has embroiled in a row over the improper use of the data of more than 87 million facebook users in president donald trump's us election campaign. our technology reporter rory cellan—jones is at facebook‘s developer conference in san jose, and gave us this update. cambridge analytica has been bred at the centre of discussions here. yesterday when mark zuckerberg open to this comment he made another apology for what had happened with the misuse of people present data. he described what they had done,
9:15 pm
said it was an appalling breach of trust. it really happened in the fray for out this whole controversy about facebook data. i don't think that there will be many tears shed by facebook executives about this news which is just broken. by facebook executives about this news which isjust broken. he was in sanjose. our reporter richard lister has been following this story closely. he gave me this update a short time ago. it has all been confirmed on this fairly angry statement from the group. it says over the past several months, cambridge analytica has been the subject of numerous unfounded accusations despite the company's effo rts accusations despite the company's efforts to correct its record. it has been vilified for activities that are legal. it goes on for several paragraphs. it concludes that despite its unwavering confidence in its employees have acted ethically, it says the siege of media coverage has driven away
9:16 pm
virtually all of the company's customers. it has no option but to close. what impact will this have on facebook itself? validation always was that cambridge analytica used data from facebook from about 87 million people as part of its effo rts million people as part of its efforts to influence voters in the various election campaigns. it was set up to take part in the american election system in 2012 and in 2014 it was involved in 44 different campaigns of the united states and us congress and senate and at the state level. it has been a very big player. but when the news came out that it was accused of misusing this information which it really should not have had, there was a backlash that has been the subject of investigation both sides of the atlantic. they have spent tens of millions defending itself and finally its companies. millions defending itself and finally its companieslj millions defending itself and finally its companies. i appreciate richard. it is only breaking. any
9:17 pm
reaction so far? not at the moment. it has just happened in the past 15 minutes or so. it is clear that this will lead a big hole in terms of companies which are wanted to offer this kind of service. cambridge analytica has proved what is capable of being done if you have access to data and if you can use that data to influence voters that are going to be other companies trying to fill this void. there will be other companies. thanks to richard for getting across that story so quickly. stay with us on outside source. still to come. we will be looking at tesla. they make solar panels. we will be live with our correspondent in new york if they are making —— you find out if they are making —— you find out if they are making —— you find out if they are making any money. more now on the news that the british political consultancy firm, cambridge analytica, is to close in the wake of the facebook data privacy scandal the company had denied using data of the facebook data privacy scandal.
9:18 pm
the company had denied using data mined from facebook to make targeted adverts during the us presidential campaign two years ago. cambridge analytica was accused of improperly gaining access to the sensitive user information of as many as 87 million facebook users. damian collins, the conservative chair of the digital, culture, media and sport committee said the company have many more questions to answer. we had to make sure this is not an attempt to run and hide and that these companies are closing down to try avoid being rigorously investigation from the allegations against them by the way they use data. those skinned —— investigations had to continue. it is very easy to know —— close—out companies and for the people behind this cubbies to re—emerge with their data and contacts intact. this is outside source live from the bbc newsroom. our lead story.
9:19 pm
president trump pays his first ever visit to the state department in washington for the swearing in of his new secretary of state. here's a quick look at some of the other top stories we're covering in the bbc newsroom. bbc arabic reports that at least 12 people have been killed in a suicide bomb attack in libya that targeted the offices of the electoral commission in the capital tripoli. a number of militants, including at least one suicide bomber, stormed the building. and online you can read about a settlement in philadelphia between the two black men arrested in a starbucks. rashon nelson and donte robinson will each receive a symbolic one dollar and a vow from the city to contribute 200 thousand dollars to contribute $200,000 to a pilot youth programme. let's bring you up to date with what's been happening in armenia. the country's protest leader nikol pashinyan has called
9:20 pm
for a pause in the growing demonstrations, after the governing republican party suggested that it might back him as prime minister. this former soviet republic has had protestors mounting campaigns of civil disobedience. initially the blockades and walk—outs took place in the capital yerevan, but then they spread to armenia's second city. and many were also taking place in its third city. many scenarios taking place across the country. through the day there were were jubilant scenes on yerevan‘s republic square, as demonstrators showed their support for protest leader nikol pashinyan. he was out amongst the protesters in republic square today, wearing his usual camouflage outfit.
9:21 pm
he led weeks of anti—government protests that forced the country's leader of ten years to resign. but not everyone was happy about today's demonstrations. on the road to yerevan airport angry drivers confronted protesters who blockaded the road, forcing police to intervene. many tourists are said to have walked the rest of the way to the airport with their luggage. various scenes across armenia. armenia's parliament is expected to meet again on 8th of may to try again to elect a prime minister. nikol pashinyan has now declared a one—day pause for discussions with the ruling party, who have said they will back the candidate nominated by a third of legislators in that vote next week. mr pashinyan has been assured of such support. rayhan demytrie was in yerevan for the announcement.

9:23 pm
to business now, where we have some breaking news from electric car maker tesla. kim gittleson in new york. you have been crunching numbers solely for us in the last moments. you have some figures for us from tesla. good or bad? tesla always releases are names that have been long letter in front of it. trying to parse what happened take some time. but you need to know that they are still losing money. another record was her tesla of over $700 million in the first quarter of this year. —— loss —— record loss. losing something like $400 million in cash on its operating activities alone. pa rt on its operating activities alone. part of its problem is tesla is not making nearly as many sedans as it was hoping to make. it achieved record numbers of 2270 cars per week. but that is nowhere near the
9:24 pm
5000 cars per week target that tesla has said. nonetheless, the company says that it still thinks it will be profitable by the third quarter of this year. it just profitable by the third quarter of this year. itjust has another three months to ramp up production and get profitable if it will meet that target that it has set. profitable if it will meet that target that it has setlj profitable if it will meet that target that it has set. i know this was last minute, but we appreciate you getting through those figures for us making sense of all that paperwork. thank you very much. the latest from the tesla figures. every single day more than a million people around the world have a serious accident or injury at work. the un's international labour organisation is calling for better protection, but many of the victims are young, between the ages of 15 and 24. here's the international labour organisation explaining why. they have less bargaining power, they have less experience on the job. they are normally not as trained and very new. most accidents happen in the first 46 months on—the—job. be it young or old
9:25 pm
workers. but as young workers are a lwa ys workers. but as young workers are always new, they are not necessarily well supervised or trained on a regular basis. they tend to suffer more and take more risks and they wa nt to ta ke more and take more risks and they want to take more risks. they don't know the consequences being young. that was an example ofjust how young people between the ages of 15 and 24 are the ones that succumb to most injuries at work. more on our website. the man who leads the un's chemical weapons watchdog has told the bbc that the taboo against using them could be eroded — unless more is done to punish those who deploy them. much more on this story coming out. do stay with us for the next edition of the programme. let's had to north america. looks like the tornado season has

9:29 pm
of no better person to lead who is dedicated public service than our new secretary of state, mike pompeo. another day of protests in armenia, this time nationwide. it ended with a call for a pause to give the opposition leader time to get others to back him as prime minister. and the company at the heart of the facebook data scandal, cambridge analytica, announced its shedding. we we'll get more details. everyday outside source features bbc journalists working in over 30 languages. your questions are always welcome. hello and welcome. we start with a stark warning from the man who leads the un chemicals whelping watch. he has told the bbc that the taboo
9:30 pm
against using chemical weapons could be eroded unless more is done to punish those who deploy them. he was speaking after he investigated cases of chemical weapons, 1 was the 1 in the syrian city of close to the capital of damascus. gordon went to meet him. they are the weapons it was once hoped would disappear. but the last months have seen chemical weapons deployed here allegedly in syria, and closer to home in salisbury. waving fears that their use is becoming normalised. the battles over what really happened and who was responsible in both cases, fought in the opc w. last week, russia brought children from
9:31 pm
syria into the opc w it's self, using them to back its claim that no chemical agent had been used against them. this is the castle were. the director told me what he thought that move. i asked myself not to attend, because i thought this was not appropriate for the impartiality of the organisation has been doing. so it should not have happened? absolutely. it is very clear to me. in the salisbury poisoning, they independently confirmed scientific analysis. they tried to cast doubt. today, he defended his team's work. the samples collected cannot be tampered, so there is a full chain of custody as we call it, and attended by our experts from the
9:32 pm
place they were collected, 1 from the patients and the were taken here to the laboratory, so this is a very well—established procedure. which cannot be with. there had been a taboo on the use of chemical weapons, but the concern is this could now be at risk. if we are not able to address seriously the case of use of chemical weapons and to hold accountable those who are responsible, and punish them, then there are high risks. this organisation is now at the heart of an international struggle. whose outcome will determine whether chemical weapons belong to the past 01’ chemical weapons belong to the past or also the future. let's go back to the united states, where a bill banning abortion at 6 weeks have been passed in iowa. if signed by the state's government, it will be the state's government, it will be the most restrictive anti—abortion law in the united states. iowa has
9:33 pm
republicans have been celebrating on their official twitter account, saying. there has also been reaction from those who oppose it. planned parenthood group says. is notjust a big issue in iowa, though. let's have a look at some of the other states that are also seeing a fierce legal battle over the timing of terminations. there they are. pregnant women in the us have the right to have abortion for 45 years, and that is thanks to the supreme court ruling roe versus wade. that could be at risk, as my colleague now reports. every year, for 45 yea rs, now reports. every year, for 45 years, thousands of people have joined the march for life, through washington, dc. protesting against the 1973 ruling that gave american
9:34 pm
women the right to choose abortion. up women the right to choose abortion. up until the foetus is viable. that supreme court ruling was roe versus wade, and this year, president trump went to overturn it. today i am honoured and really proud to be the 1st president to stand with you here at the white house to address be 45th march for life. that is very special. 45th march for life. you all come fori beautiful cause. to build a society where life is celebrated, protected and cherished. campaigners for abortion rights have told me that in the age of women's marches and me too, the momentum is all in favour of women's choice. especially of their rights to decide what happens with and within their bodies. we
9:35 pm
will when! but it is the fact that this is the institution that has the final say. the us supreme court 9 judges have for decades been finally balanced on the idea of abortion. but 3 are in their 80s this year, including ruth bader ginsburg, and all 3 of them boarded for abortion rights in the latest big test case. when they retire, or die, it is the president who dominate their replacements. which is why, as1 constitutional lawyer told me, the president's office probably has the names of new nominees in a desk ready to go. and president trump to george the support of many evangelicals and conservatives by pledging that his picks will be anti—abortion. he could have the power to change american abortion rights for another generation. my colleague without report. it has
9:36 pm
been an alarming statistic that 10 of the world's population live in dangerously high levels of pollution. you can find out a little bit more about that finding on the website by the world health organisation. it goes on to add that living in polluted areas can have a serious affects under health. let's have a look at the some of statistics. over7,000,000 have a look at the some of statistics. over 7,000,000 deaths occui’ statistics. over 7,000,000 deaths occur because of pollution. for .2 of those are exposure to outdoor air pollution. 91% premature deaths are in countries with 4,000,000 deaths a year occurring in western pacific regions and south east asia. while 14 of the most polluted cities are in india, and here is reporting. the problem is
9:37 pm
far worse in poor countries like here in india, where rapid industrialization and economic growth in the last 30 years have come at a cost. of poor air quality. 14 indian cities are among the worst most polluted, according to the world health organisation. and more than 90% of deaths related to air pollution occur in low or middle income countries. like asia and africa. it is notjust people bearing the brunt of this crisis. according to environment here in india, the iconic monument the taj mahal is under threat as well. the supreme court expressed concern over the changing of the colour of its white marble. it said it had turned yellow and was now turning brown and green. pollution is said to be1 yellow and was now turning brown and green. pollution is said to be 1 of the major causes of that. when pollution levels peak, especially in
9:38 pm
wintertime, people do what they can to protect themselves. they tie scarves and masks across their faces and prefer to keep children indoors. it is increasingly clear that the authorities have failed to find a lasting solution. some alarming statistic there. if you want to comment, you can also go onto our website to see the rest our stories. including plenty of analysis on the breaking news story, the closure of cambridge analytica, at the data harvesting scandal. the british government has admitted that as many as 270,000 women in england may have died of breast cancer as a result of computer error. hundreds of thousands of women did not receive invitations to routine screenings.
9:39 pm
here is the report that yellow. she was still a routine mammogram in 2013 at the age of 70, but never got the invitation. years later, she developed breast cancer.|j the invitation. years later, she developed breast cancer. i look back now and think everything that happens could have been avoided or lessened, the whole journey i went on, that traumaticjourney, and the treatment may never have had to have happened. today, the government admitted there had been a serious failure in nhs screening, caused in pa rt by failure in nhs screening, caused in part by problems with sometimes tragic consequences. there may be 135- 270 tragic consequences. there may be 135— 270 women that may have had their lives cut short. it is
9:40 pm
unlikely to be more than this range, and may be considerably less. however, tragically, there are likely to be some people in this group who would have been alive today if the failure had not happened. labour set a number of questions had to be answered. happened. labour set a number of questions had to be answeredfi years is a long time for an error of this magnitude to go undetected. did the departments received any warnings at that time, and is there any record of women who raised concerns that they had not received appropriate screening? whether opportunities to change this? women between the ages, are advised to come for a routine screening some in the 60s never got the invitation. about women about 2,000,000 women a year are affected. in 2009, the national
9:41 pm
screening programme affected. in 2009, the national screening programme up affected. in 2009, the national screening programme up to the age of 70 was launched in england. potential problems became clearer. january of this year, public health of england was informed. january of this year, public health of england was informedlj january of this year, public health of england was informed. i feel extremely sad for the women affected at this colossal disaster will stop it is hugely significant. we have to be concerned about confidence in the screening service. but we need to know how has this happened. women under 72 at least 100 people have been killed
9:42 pm
