3:03 pm
the scene very quickly and neutralized the attackers if they have managed to get in there could have been a very big tragedy today we're also praising our security forces. a separatist group the liberation army with squeaking claiming responsibility the group openly oppose us chinese projects in the neighboring baluchistan province beijing a close economic ally to pakistan has invested billions of dollars into developing the country's infrastructure china condemned the attack but stressed it will stick to its commitment. china will continue to work with pakistan and bring more benefit to the people of pakistan china and the rest of the countries of the region. this is the highest profile attack in pakistan against chinese presence pakistani prime minister imran khan has ordered an inquiry. journalists. joins us from karachi with more on the story a shot we've seen that an insurgent group has claimed responsibility for this
3:04 pm
attack who is this group. liberation army is operating and based on as you know their boast on is that the richest in terms of mineral resources deployed pakistan and its border with afghanistan and iran is when the. nation army is its military and similar to some of the. attacks and we let me tell you they are according to the latest report law which was issued by intelligence agencies and called commanders it is one of the malls are going to edition in most on which has been operating since the beginning of two thousand and across. so they've carried out attacks before but why are they targeting the chinese consulate here. this terrorist organization is. it to end for ten days or
3:05 pm
a terrorist organization. and that against any chinese in walmart and sunday murdered it's not trying to be a live in any modernization and they say according to the chinese when to call nice post on a barge wrong date night on leads our organization where there is a deal this is in our money in general and losses in politicians view this is china of arkansas nicole nicole de borde parliament is these are the only folks on parliament so they are taking the chinese and they have already threatened and the development projects were ordered be opposed is the. new call unionism so that's a very go. yes that's a very serious threat after the attack that we saw how do you think this is going to affect china's presence in pakistan. well it's going to have been the chinese presence in pakistan where you can. read the instruction of the police met mr of
3:06 pm
china and islamabad from the security wondering islamabad they had before this to go. they have dinners in places and they're secure there is security before apart from date time is our lady of witnessing the low intensity insurgency so therefore deep recession this kind of take is. chinese are coming is a sign it's one of the places we are chinese investors and chinese engineers don't i'm a little bit with with publicans they're doing other states. it's not just on the one a few months ago there was an article on chinese engineered and on monday involved on windy engineers who are going to and for ten dollars. so it's not going to be more and more c.d.'s in coming days because this. is not carried out in your states who's basically in. the first time which means there are going to be more security raised. me and let me tell you that they can do dollars sixteen pakistan is already
3:07 pm
made a special security division which will comprise out to fifteen thousand security a oceans from there it will be from fox on the army and other fellow american forces to to secure and protect johnnie's officials and as well as those projects so despite the way to yesterday you know where the attack was carried out just flipped and support shadia used to literally very very secure radio all right gentlemen. thank you so much for keeping us up to date from caracas thanks. and staying with pakistan a bomb has exploded in an open air food market killing at least thirty five people at the opposite end of the country the attack a took place in the remote orakzai district in the semi-autonomous tribal areas near the border with afghanistan more than fifty people were injured in the bombing does not appear to be linked to the consulate attack in karate. not to some other

stories making headlines around the world the trial of a former militia leader from the central african republic has opened at the international criminal court in the hague offered to come home is charged with war crimes and crimes against humanity known as colonel rambo he led a militia that targeted muslims in ca or five years ago. a group of central american migrants have marched through the border crossing into one of mexico calling for permission to enter the u.s. president trump has threatened to close the u.s. border with mexico if authorities quote lose control of the situation. spanish prime minister pedro sanchez and cuban president want to expand ties between their two countries the leaders signed agreements in havana sanchez is in cuba for the highest levels banished visit to the country in more than thirty years. and cuba has canceled a health care deal with brazil and recall the thousands of doctors working in the
3:09 pm
country this after brazil's incoming president called the doctors slave labor cuba earns billions by collecting most of the wages of doctors and medical workers it sends to countries like brazil. even ago shaders have so far failed to resolve the issue of gibraltar after spain threatened to throw the brakes a deal into jeopardy with a last minute objection a spanish prime minister pedro sun just tweeted after speaking with britain's prime minister theresa may on thursday quote our positions remain far away my government will always defend the interests of spain if there are no changes we will veto bragg's it now spain last year brought her to britain more than three hundred years ago but still claims the tiny mediterranean enclave let's get the latest on this with our correspondent there in brussels good to see you know we're seeing reports that spain says it wants a written promise from the u.k.
3:10 pm
on gibraltar before of the big summit that they you can that you were holding on sunday tell us what you're hearing there. the case of your brother is quite interesting because just like northern ireland you have a situation there where the european union solved a lot of problems the fact that both spain and the u.k. where in the same club it solves all sorts of tax problems now with a brogue withdrawal of the u.k. from the e.u. all these problems come back up and that is why the spanish government has said it wants the status of gibraltar negotiated bilaterally directly with the british side they also insisted that they want in this divorce draft agreement a clause that guarantees them post brax it retold on anything regarding gibraltar and if in fact that was part of this agreement it now has been taken out and the spanish don't seem to be happy with any sort of an appendix that is added to the document they want to reopen this document now the shape of meetings preparing the
3:11 pm
summit on sunday have ended but talks still going on here in brussels on how this can be resolved this has proven to be a very thorny issue carol let's take a closer look at what is at stake for people in that region. the spanish town of la linea on the border which brought her unemployment here is high many work across the border nearly ten thousand people in southern spain make the daily commute to gibraltar soon though this could become an external border it's not yet clear how this will affect their jobs the tourism industry or the port in casinos. is concerned about the future he's worried his job and a tobacco shop in gibraltar could be under threat. a bit better yeah i'm fifty three years old there's not all of work here and i could suddenly find
3:12 pm
myself out of a job unemployed and it was the bottom of that what. many here share his sense of uncertainty. we still be able to cross the border like we do now no one knows. many people here are taking no chances and preparing for every eventuality. you know the police stations hey all swamped because so many people are applying for passports or loss of where their lives it's just like on the bus of. gibraltar like the irish border is one of the main bones of contention in the bronx at negotiations the spanish government says gibraltar and spain are so interdependent that many issues such as jobs taxation and customs should be settled by laterally between madrid and london. it wants this to be enshrined in the final divorce deal otherwise it will block the agreement. this is an important point for us as a pro european government if not solved by sunday it was they will have to use its
3:13 pm
veto official carpathia. much is at stake for prime minister pedro sanchez spain southern region of angeles is holding regional elections in just over a week's time but sanchez has found support in the former to baltar's autonomy government it too wants bilateral talks between spain and britain over the territory's future relationship without our inclusion in that would prevent gibraltar. would have faced the cliff edge of the thirteenth of march two thousand and nineteen. will gibraltar derail the brics in negotiations many in southern spain like me get valentia are hoping for business as usual. you know they are this issue has really flared back up this week and we heard in that report the spanish prime minister threatening to use this detail can that really happen kev this issue really de rail negotiations at this point. so we have
3:14 pm
a special summit that is school still scheduled for sunday we'll need to find consensus that is in the rule books for special summits such as such as this one so leaders will have to find a unanimous position on this draft that divorce paper and so in a sense spain has a veto there because they can basically block that process the process that is then to come if they would give the green light you would have the approval process including the british government and their you only need a qualified majority there they could approve this but we won't even get to that step unless all you member states are on board and that is why intense talks on the side of the you are going on at the moment in order to bring the spanish back on board all right gary take us through what happens next on banks that well what happens next is that we will have let's say on this summit there is
3:15 pm
a green light for this divorce paper it will then go to the british side and let's presume again a lot of presumptions will come. that the british parliament would agree to that it is then the european parliament that needs to agree and then it goes back to the european council i.e. to the e.u. member states they will have to give again a green light with a simple majority and then we have a divorce paper but that is not the end of the story it is from that point on words that we can start looking of the future of a deal so the e.u. is really facing a marathon here finding a final deal with the u.k. to get it on the road. has fallen on the latest developments for us there in brussels garrick thank you very much. right the deal is on the table gary hart is here with a look at how the business community is taking this all. for you mainly here is this deal is a deal and any deal is better than no deal even though it all remains all pretty
3:16 pm
lofty but let's hear what series a may put forward in her speech in parliament yesterday mr speaker the text we have now agreed would create a new free trade area with the european union with no chariots fees charges or constant restrictions it ends free movement once and for all instead we will introduce a new skills based immigration system based not on the country people come from but on what they can contribute to the u.k. here. it ends the jurisdiction of the european court of justice in the u.k. . we will make our own rules in our own parliaments here in westminster and in edinburgh cardiff and belfast and they will be adjudicated on by u.k. courts and it means an end to sending vast sums of money to the e.u. so we can take full control of our money mr speaker the draft text that we have agreed with the commission is a good deal for our country and for our partners in the e.u.
3:17 pm
it almost approach. it honors the coach of the british people by taking back control of our borders laws and our money while protecting jobs security and the integrity of our precious united kingdom. so is it really a good deal for the u.k. and a good deal for the e.u. let's bring in. chief economist of joins us now from frankfurt castle to resume mentioned a new free trade area with the e.u. will that mean business as usual. no it doesn't i don't know what was make sure you read it in the paper but don't forget we talk about the divorce paper the withdrawal treaty right now everything that may said who is on the future there's a declaration off intentions so i think that the trade negotiations on whether or not the u.k. would rejoin the free trade area with the e.u. after work is still completely unclear i think that the europeans give it right now to his dismay to use it as a promotion material in in parliament but the rest is completely unclear.
3:18 pm
so it sounds. from what tourism may said like the e.u. will get u.k. rather will get everything it wants but will breaks it still hurt the u.k. u.k. economy you think obviously breaks it any kind of breaks it would still hurt the british economy a soft of rexx it would hurt it much less than the heartbreak it obviously but i think what about may's doing right now she has to sell the treaty to parliament to the she needs support or while you look at it right now already the british economy has already lost investment over the last couple of months the cami would really need much more a much harder by any kind of breaks it then the european one. the the business community a community around europe really needs more security more more certainty did that deliver more the words or is of my book on the table that. never in germany would
3:19 pm
say no nine because the thing is it is completely ok we only have a deal once really everything has been settled and the ball is still in the red in the british field right now it will all depend on the leave gibraltar it will really all depend on whether the british parliament will agree to this deal at least to get the withdrawal agreements of the the this certainly is clearly not there i think we have to wait at least until sunday but probably after going into december before we get any kind of clarity so you didn't hear anything there that makes you more optimistic about briggs's. i think we know what is good is that may and younger student for front of the cameras that they that we have some kind of agreement but there was clear that at least may and there the european negotiators that they would agree on a kind of the of i think they were there was always clear so i haven't heard anything that makes me feel either more positive or more negative to see that the
3:20 pm
british parliament would actually vote for this bracks if they'll so i'm still very much up in the thank you vest to the chief economist of. fanaa for me i'm a business major the show non-stock to sue me with news about how lucid african art could be heading home soon that's right there hard to report commissioned by french president madeline michael is likely to recommend changes in the law to allow african works of art to be returned to their nations of origin now the report follows up on a promise that mccall made a year ago to return african heritage to africa most of the works were taken during the french colonial rule in the nineteenth and twentieth century. in a paris museum on the banks of the seven a palace of african art. but the seventy thousand works here have a troubled past many of them were torn from their cultural home during the colonial era. a new report commissioned by french president emmanuel mccall says that
3:21 pm
france must return the art it stole. the authors found that as much as ninety five percent of subsaharan african art is held outside the continent. in between a country with a renowned art legacy france's move is being hailed as a step toward justice. by returning property is not a matter of victory for someone or failure for others because in the end it's not a battle. he needs these assets to strengthen its national economy to provide employment and also for all the cultural heritage manages and curators in this country. back in paris some resistance french our dealers are skeptical that museums can or even should return the vast collections. it's one of these things that looks like morally on its face give it back to who it belongs
3:22 pm
well what does it belong to and hasn't been in that country for over a hundred years and you know look france built the whole music able to respect these objects to preserve them to show them so it's a tricky thing i mean i'm actually kind of in favor of it but i'd like to see how it gets. completed france's wholesale return of looted african art would be historic and could trigger a response from other european countries with colonial era holdings it was not call himself who launched the initiative but it's unclear if he's prepared to see it through. let's bring in lisa lewis she's following the story for us from paris hi lisa so this is a highly anticipated report it's going to be released this afternoon what can we expect. well we know that this report will recommend that if countries make that in mt to france to give back. that was taken during the colonial period between one
3:23 pm
thousand nine hundred five and one nine hundred sixty from such the herion countries then the government will have to look into it and give these artworks back within five years if there is no receipt that she is that this artwork was required legally obviously this is a non-binding report and it what rick ryan a change in french law because currently french will says that that is owned by the french government is nontransferable so that would need to be changed and obviously people here some voices are some people are saying you know this is not really the right thing right way to go about this this would be a caricature of history because our colonization wasn't only bad you can say we're the bad guys they're the good guys we also got lots of good things to these countries that is infrastructure education et cetera and also you know we have a historic role to put preserve and protect these are obviously on the african side
3:24 pm
people are saying you know it's not you're not in the position to tell us what to do with these things because these outlets are property free and as we heard at least it's unclear if michael will actually see this through could this also increase pressure on museums and private collectors elsewhere in europe well absolutely i mean not every country has that many immigrants descendants from colonial countries in africa as like france but still there will be a lot of discussion in the u.k. or in germany and france really goes through with this there will be a lot of pressure on these countries to do the same really and what do you think we're going to see from african countries what does this mean for them. it's a huge thing for them because when the french or when other countries went into their countries and you know colonized these countries and then took away these it
3:25 pm
meant for them that they were taking parts of their cultural heritage cultural history part of their identity and if you look at these countries but also your descendants from these countries here in france for example it is a huge debate many many people from the suburbs have been saying you know we want my car we want the president to go through with this because it would mean that we were finally seen in a way on an as on an equal footing because you know by taking away these objects it's like saying you don't have a history your history is with us with france and if france really gets gives back these objects it means that these countries can finally be proud again of that of the history also say you know we have our own heritage and this is what we're going to show in our own museums now our idea is lisa lewis reporting there for us from paris thank you so much. and we'll have more on how this could affect the art world a little bit later in the show now the concentration of carbon dioxide in the
3:26 pm
earth's atmosphere has reached a new record high that's according to the latest report just released by the world meteorological organization the u.n. agency has issued a stark warning that humankind's window of opportunity to limit global warming is almost closed. the warning comes from a report issued every year by the un's world meteorological organization but this year the scientists say the message is more urgent than ever before. the report indicates carbon dioxide levels reached four hundred five parts per million last year a level last seen three to five million years ago. and at that time the reconstruction tells us that they ever each main surface temperature was two or three degrees higher than now and they see a level worse ten to twenty ten to twenty meters higher the annual report gauges
3:27 pm
the concentration of greenhouse gases as opposed to the amount that's released scientists measure what's left in the air after some of the harmful gases have been absorbed by nature the report says the warming impact of those gases is increasing but despite the alarming data scientists remain optimistic so i believe that this new knowledge we have with all the information we are putting into it will be the communities behind our science and science policy and but i would sort of we will be able to make it but they stress that change must come quickly we need to act now our need to take actions to decrease the growth rates many scientists are now looking to the u.n. climate talks in poland next month in the hope of finally finding effective ways to end the fossil fuel air. you're watching news white india's government is renaming dozens of towns and villages stoking tensions between hindus and muslims. plus we'll look at the black friday frenzy for shoppers

3:31 pm
that's a loss it gets clarification of the future status of the british enclave of gibraltar e.u. leaders are going to endorse the budget deal at a summit on sunday. that was the u.k.'s exit from the e.u. appears to be drawing closer some british citizens have been calling for a second referendum to let the people have another say on brags that one of the most vocal is welshman steve bray otherwise known as the stop brags that man. he wants to be heard. and he wants to be seen. brady has become the face of the anti brecht's and protest in london sneaking into the background of live broadcasts like this one has become his daily exercise. for fear of steve's home in south london has become a storage space for signs shards and european flags the forty nine year old
3:32 pm
welshman has made it his mission to stop britain's departure from the european union every single morning for over a year he's packed issaquah command and driven to parliament to protest thank you go for such a well apparently. counter protest at downing street so we're going to get there now which is a little bit earlier than normal sacha we're going to see what's happening in the street for whatever happens or down the street we've always got to have people upset parliament. while protesters rally outside. inside parliament opposition to bracks it is growing as well. a prominent conservative m.p. . and labor politician. have joined forces to battle the government's breck's of plans this is still very good to see and you feel like saying that it isn't there's a looming surprised look on the first did you think it was going to be the. result
3:33 pm
both m.p.'s are no law being for a second referendum it must go back to the british people and now we see the reality of bracks it and the fact that actually we still don't know where our final landing place will be simpler it if it goes back to the british people and we have this people's vote which is a choice between remain and mrs may still lying to my end of the polls both steve and a handful of other protesters are echoing the call on the street. but it's the most important thing that this nation faces the most important thing that my generation my in my life is nothing more important than making making the change it's an absolute disaster. for his dedication to the cause has earned state support from across britain i mean people are fighting all over the country i'd like to thank you. but all these people here have made it big difference not just me i'm carrying
3:34 pm
the message when i go take all this off nobody knows who i am outside parliament though steve has become a hero to many and she's determined to complain to the bitter end to make sure that the european flag will always fly in front of the british colony. to india now where the hindu nationalist government led by a prime minister narendra modi is on a renaming spree cities with islamic names have had them changed to more hindu friendly ones to find out more our india correspondent michelle traveled to one city in northern india. months have made the noise the studies of neighborhoods and monuments by heart. he's a historian who grew up in the city. he says was built by the a muslim dynasty that set up an empire in the indian subcontinent in the sixteenth
3:35 pm
century signs of classic islamic architecture are everywhere he went but. once they started building the city the name it flies about. the founders were from iran and then advise about after city in iran to preserve those memories of. this historic name however is no more. has now been renamed local hindu nationalist government. for residents like maybe this change is an attempt to it is the city's islamic past. also runs a bilingual weekly in hindi and or due to the city's. religious tensions on the surface in two thousand and twelve riots broke out between the city's hindus and muslims the newspaper's office was sacked and it stopped publishing for a month. the mosque next door was attacked as well for the recent dreaming of the
3:36 pm
city the fragile peace between hindus and muslims. this is a hatred for one community even an effort to raise the identity of everything built by the community while the only changing these names. the move also comes with political overtones just a few kilometers away from a city called or you would have already exists. it's a fight. it's believed to be the setting of the epic. one of the main text in him my apology that is the main reason the government current team led by prime minister. supports the name change. the launching of ahmed there. is some. one here. this place is of great.
3:37 pm
importance to the hindu community. and as we've been hearing and reading about the fountains if you. but this isn't all you would has known for twenty six years ago it was the demolition of a mosque in this city that spock's some of the was hindu muslim riots that independent india has seen two thousand people were killed across the country and the issue continues to be every live just and political flash point. back in past precedents don't care about the political controversy. the name change means he has practical implications. there's no advantage to this in a tourist wants to come to phase about and fans are. confusing for the old city of . government has made for good decision to rename the city. there was no hesitation among our hindu or muslim bridges.
3:38 pm
i am now. liking it that the name is c's to iowa dad because this is my book please and go on my documents i have even i have two teens. now more than a million residents of the district i left with one question. does the new need a new identity as well. you're watching news still to come three jailed saudi activists are being honored in absentia with the alternative nobel prize this evening we'll find out more about their struggle to push for reform in the gulf kingdom. but first back to gary hart in the most important season for retailers is underway at me black friday fever has gripped america with shoppers that expecting some shoes bargains the shopping frenzy signals the start of the holiday gift buying season a key period for retailers and estimated one hundred sixty four million customers are set to hit the stores by monday. it's midnight.
3:39 pm
and it's off to the races. for many on thanksgiving after the tacky dinner comes the shopping frenzy in stalls all across the u.s. thousands of customers are bogen hunting the holiday shopping season has begun. this is such an exciting day for us this is where we pick up our holiday feast that you know many of these early signs during the holiday and we celebrate with tens of thousands of our customers and this year is no exception we pulled out all the cops are great guests at a great value. everything is on sale discounts a huge clothes tronics first come first serve. ok so it's worth waiting it's freezing cold my hair is a literary ice but i don't care if this is a good up with would be you could save money. is a great place to be. but it's just to enjoy the crowds and enjoy the season with
3:40 pm
how fun is to be out of all to people. but not everyone gets his kicks out of the stampede many perfectly of them at bringing hof the year's revenues. this year's holiday wish list may be techie and smarter than ever that has into the purpose of groups looking to raise awareness for what all those gadgets may mean for our privacy and security with more on that we can now turn to. media this call . even to begin to judge a small product for data produced mean it's not easy right but it's getting to be born porn than ever i mean one of the biggest trends that we see these shoppers going for especially online are these in home internet connected devices so you know what i'm talking about amazon's eco speakers maybe one of these fit bits these fitness trackers even a voice activated teddy bears these are all internet connected things luckily there are some good resources out there for consumers one of them comes from the
3:41 pm
nonprofit internet foundation mozilla the makers of firefox it released its second annual holiday shopping guide and reviews the privacy and security of smart electronics problem is the results are not so good so let's take a look at the security here mozilla looked at seventy items how much data is collected by them who is shared with basic security features like encryption and it ranks them from not creepy to super creepy the crazy thing is less than half of those items met mozilla's minimum security standards one of the top ranked items is the nintendo switch it's a video game console it meets all the basic security standards has automatic security updates good privacy protection but they're not all like that the item with the lowest rating of all this is the freddy baby monitor it's an end home camera it syncs with your smart phone that sounds pretty nice and useful here's why i was right as the creepiest product it has a history of being easily hacked so that means potentially someone could access the
3:42 pm
video feed and spy on you and your family or your baby it has no encryption to speak of whatsoever its default password is literally one two three. and the device doesn't seem to have any. privacy policy at all so that item is labeled as super creepy there are a lot of good deals of course on electronics out there today but it is worth it i think for consumers to do their research and make sure that low price is worth the risk of privacy invasion yes absolutely and most people would actually probably do that most of you know i know but in general do consumers really care about these things do that actually lower the internet and find out what. these concerns are justified i don't think many people do i mean there's a couple other products out there that kind of show you that one that was not reviewed by mozilla but i think is worth flagging is the facebook portal and this is released now recently by facebook it's meant to kind of compete with amazon and
3:43 pm
google is a smart display you can with a built in camera shot with your friends do video calls the camera will automatically track you and follow you while you're chatting if that isn't creepy enough it turns out the privacy policy here is even creepier according to facebook the portal will collect information about your chats how long you call people how often for example it will use that information to target you with ads on facebook or other apps like instagram so a little creepy there too is there anything that you particularly worried about you've looked into this these are some some. very tough examples i mean do you use things like. home i always shied away from personally don't i shy away from it so i think it's a little bit creepy i don't want this machine that's always listening to me in my home i know that some of the business producers admitted to me that they do buy those i think look there's a choice between convenience and privacy right now most consumers are choosing convenience the privacy risks are big enough for them but it's something that
3:44 pm

colonial era explorers and rulers. let's talk more about this with karen helps that from you culture hi karen so what is the situation we're looking there at france what is the situation here in germany well this report is definitely going to have ramifications for a number of collections in germany and of course in other countries and it is i think quite as we see putting a great amount of pressure on the german government to react especially as in their coalition agreement the government pledged to work on determining the provenance of many of the artworks that were looted during colonial times there has in fact already been a huge debate going on surrounding the forum which is due to open in september twenty one thousand here in berlin that's funded eighty percent by the federal government and supposed to be the visiting card of the nation according to the german culture minister monaco to us and it's set to house for linux non european and i don't want to call collections and asian art collections and in the context
3:49 pm
of this debate it has been harshly criticized for not putting enough focus on the provenance of colonial era artefacts now one of the most vocal critics has been the art historian benedict washes one of the authors of president. commission report and she actually resigned from the home for holmes advisory board over her frustration over what she calls the colonial amnesia of the whole planners. with museum directors here have reacted very cautiously so far saying that they certainly don't accept all of the criticism they're saying firstly that the provenance is being taken into. count oftentimes. together with the country of origin and that not all of the works were required were acquired illegally ok so take us through some of the works of art that we're talking about here specifically ok so in this case we're talking about something called the bronzes which is a group of sculptures and metal plaques that decorate at the royal palace of the

kingdom of bain in which is now in modern day nigeria about eight hundred ninety seven british soldiers brought most of them back to europe many of them ended up in the british museum the rest were purchased by other museums and notable collections are now in vienna and here in berlin and in the u.s. now the call by european artists and politicians to return these objects has been growing louder and there's been similar sentiment sentiment growing in nigeria so there's several facets of this argument because many of the museum professionals here argue that our large european museum museums are international operating on a principle of universe ality to hold these works for all of humanity and to take proper care of them but many people in africa have a problem with that argument which you could call decidedly a euro centric view and someone like nikkei davies is the owner of nigeria's largest private gallery for instance and here's what she has to say to that
3:51 pm
argument. and the country because i'm not able to give you a visa to go and see i want to enjoy a trace of my country that you see in the british museum is sad but we want to fight to make sure we get to. such an important their point there that they might not even be able to access museums here so it really challenges our concept of what universality means exactly and if they're not accessible for people who wanted to actually see them and enjoy them from the country of origin that is a problem and it definitely needs to be addressed i think at any rate that press. don't knock holes report will certainly be ushering in a new era for how countries look at displaced heritage and he is definitely setting an example and the opposition is going to go to tell with this just returning things overnight though definitely won't be possible you know i think it will take it'll be a long process and it would require
