talk to journalists are here he is on the line from a couple to here thank you for joining us the third attack in kabul in recent days as we just said why are we seeing such an optic in violence in the capital. well i would say it shows this failure of the afghan security forces i know that that the afghan government is quite busy with the laming neighboring countries for such attacks but it literally shows that the senior security officials they are not just a captive all over ensuring this pretty over capital where we are at least five million people are living there people are really horrified people are really fed up and people are taking other actions like you know they are planning protests to ask these things their security officers system down yesterday for example the three security ministers they appeared in a press conference one of they were saying that no one is comfortable to replace them which is quite funny and shameful because that literally shows it is being you

know afghanistan is now the security is being led by a small clique of people who are incompetent so why have security forces been so on able to stop this surge of violence. well because they did a problem is the afghan government is so busy these days with city politics and internal politics you know politicians accusing each other of you know what is happening as what they call the conspiracy theories so that's why they forget the higher and more more important priority which is issuing the security of people so that is why that has been idling to be honest for example in kabul alone we know that at least more than twenty terrorist groups operate so how could they operate while we have excuse me why we have too many intelligent. intelligence service soldiers and agents here and we have got our national security forces we have got the spatial forces we have got commandos and we have got the international force

here but unfortunately still people on on a daily basis they experience such terrorist attack this is quite shameful and that is a massacre that all comes as the indonesian presidential veto has been actually visiting a couple is this a failure by afghan intelligence to prevent this attack during his this is exactly exactly let me remind is their audience that yesterday was declared as a morning ceremony of like one hundred twenty people who were killed and massacred and then today they called it again and declared it a public holiday. call telling people the afghan government was telling people that is the mornings but the reality was that just they wanted to keep all the roads and the streets and the so that they could welcome and receive the indonesian president but all of a sudden this happened and i'm sure the indian agent prison was the price too because it is not the first sign that you know high profile people come to afghanistan and such attacks take place so that was a total failure people you know today have everywhere all the votes were blocked

even though you know there was so much restriction and preparations for ensuring to secure those they couldn't avoid one attack which you can see the outburst of people on social media if you call them all right journalist to hear can be reporting for us there from kabul to here thank you very much. thank you. now to some other stories making news around the world paris is on alert for flooding today as the river sends swell to four meters above its usual levels the river flowing to the french capital reached five point eight four meters this morning and water levels are not expected to begin receding before tuesday after weeks of heavy rain hit the area regional authorities say the floods have already caused damage in a number of towns. finland's president sally nice to them has been reelected in a landslide victory that song received sixty two percent of the vote in the first round avoiding a runoff the former finance minister has been a highly popular president since he took office in two thousand and twelve he ran as an independent with no affiliation to the conservative national coalition party

year for twenty four k. magic and song of the year for that's what i like he gave a heartfelt speech as he accepted his award and you know those songs are written with nothing but joy and one reason and for one reason only and that's love and that's all i want to bring with this album hopefully i can feel that again and see everybody dancing and everybody moving but it's man's went into orbit rappers kendrick lamar and j.c. were left down on earth leaving the hip hop community without a win in the coveted album of the year award lamar had to take consolation in just five prices for his album down and single humble but this year music wasn't the only thing sent to stage with sexual misconduct allegations rocking other areas of the entertainment business music industry figures showed solidarity for the times up and me two campaigns by wearing white roses and pulp sing a catcher who has spoken out about being a survivor of sexual abuse herself delivered her powerful ballad praying.

sing a gentleman a gave a rousing speech that pulled no punches silence us we offer you two were times. the we say times that prepare you know quality time's up for discrimination time's up for harassment of any cause and time's up for the abuse of power because you see it's not just going on in hollywood it's not just going on in washington it's right here in our industries where these grammys were all about women raising their voices to call time on sexual abuse. you have in this culture reporter mark s. that are was following the grammys for us hi mark it was sold out to you from the grammys and new york well i think it said in that report cash's performance which was highly a nation each. lodge was a real con a show stopper really in a very glamorous event. it was also made very special by the fact that she was

flanked by the resistance revival chorus group of women including celebrities such as cindy door and andra day who were lending their voice to back her up also very controversial because the herself was involved in a dispute now a protracted defamation suit with her former producer dr luke so that was a really really key moment but then outside of the venue you two were performing on a floating podium a barge in the hudson river echoes of the clash and london calling on the thames perhaps but also politically charged in its very direct voice against donald trump so quite a stream the sort of political performance political performance the surprise of the evening i suppose it was we were talking about earlier is bruno mars sweeping sweeping the board the six awards six awards and it was also kind of unexpected because the odds on the smart money was on kendrick lamar and jay z. jay z.

didn't take anything home. of course managed just of clutch a few awards but kind of a surprise that pretty amazing to see jay z. go home with no words from the grammys about what about germany there was an award for germany in that i was indeed croft craft back who won the best dance electronic album i mean to paraphrase the one of their well known hits they're the models and they're looking good with such a when they've had a fantastic time since they sort of pioneered alec tronic music in the seventy's and eighty's and one of the few bands that have really broken out of journey's board is to get worldwide acclaim sellout shows of the last four or five years and this album is a collection of some of those live performance moments so it was a night celebrating music and the stars of music industry but it was really those white roses that seem to stand out from the night. i think that's absolutely true i mean i think you could almost dubbed these the meet to awards rather than the grammys i mean it was a really powerful show of strength from all of these women and some men who were

sporting these white rose is a powerful symbol. the people who organized the white roses for the evening called it a symbol of hope peace sympathy and resistance but it was also of course a symbol of the white rose resistance movement against the nazis in the thirty's the purity and innocence in the face of evil whichever way you look at it it's a useful it's a useful way of bringing attention to a subject that is hotly discussed at the moment in the entertainment industries and i think really what we need to think about is women in in entertainment and the music industry in particular is in the grammys that there aren't enough women behind the scenes in the more powerful positions with the labels with publishing and of course produces it's hard to think of people who are strong women at the moment too who really need to be there to make a difference reporter mark s. been following the grammys for us thank you mark. philippines president every go to terra to has visited all of a province where tens of thousands of people have been displaced by an active
