block her deportation also coming up the bones government says that it is for oil to a coup attempt arresting the four soldiers who tried to seize power this morning because of so is this the end of the rebellion and tonight a surprise that the golden globe awards in los angeles a movie about rock band queen defies expectations and takes the top award for best drama and best actor and veteran actress glenn close is rewarded for a film she says no one in hollywood wanted to make. plus score as a peacemaker in an adjoining county and men's team prepares for the handball world championship in germany and denmark we'll hear from the coach and the players about what it means to compete in a unified team. play . i'm sara kelly welcome to the program. type

only say that they will not deport a saudi teenager who says that she is fleeing abuse mohammad al qa noone has barricaded herself in a hotel room in bangkok airport in a bid to avoid being returned to her family and says that she holds a visa for straley and plans to seek asylum there eighteen year old claims that her passport was seized by a saudi official joining a layover in bangkok now she began posting on twitter for help from her hotel room at the airport on sunday and here's her latest video and stuff and i'm still in the room. i have no choice. they said to have to go to model and. no one can have in life now and the ngo human rights watch is in contact with the team and told you about her situation. she's very frightened she's very tired she has been awake for four days and

she is still determined to fight but she doesn't know what's going to happen next she has barricaded herself in the hotel room at the airport she is saying that she will only talk to us eight c.r. and we continue to press the thai government to allow u.n. h.c.r. to have access to irwin and to offer her the kind of protection that she needs because if she sent back we have very very serious fears that she would suffer great and let's cross now to florian knows she was covering this story for us from bangkok so we just heard it there florian human rights watch saying that she is in danger if she is returned home why. well basically because saudi arabia does not like women to be independent to be

to lead to live as a modern woman to just go out by herself there's this principle of god ian ships so a woman and woman in saudi arabia always has to have a male person either her brother or father with her before she basically can do anything even going to the hospital and this woman she has tweeted that in the past she had been locked up for six months and how groom just because she decided to cut her hair short so that was basically enough for getting house arrest from her family and the most important thing is that she says she nouns islam which is a major crime in saudi arabia it's basically met with the death penalty so she said she did not have any other choice but to flee her country now so far we only have her words for that but she is certainly not the only person the only saudi arabia

and woman that tells the stories like that so it's probably very credible what she has to say and this case you know attracting attention publicity as you mentioned there from really from all around the world that just like to you know put in this into context we have some reaction from european governments in fact some tweets this one from the german ambassador to thailand. let's read it out for you he's treated we are very concerned about muhammad and are in contact with the thai authorities and the embassies of the countries that she has approached we also have another tweet from a dutch politician and member of the european parliament who writes the following we are watching indeed if noone faces danger by being returned to saudi arabia she must be protected. so florian we also know that the thai police are now saying that they will not send her anywhere against her wishes is this somehow a sign that the thai government is pushing back against pressure from saudi arabia

given all of this attention that we have seen. i think it is most of all a sign that thailand is yielding to pressure from the international community and as you have just mentioned it's not only been the german ambassador and this dutch representative basically all the diplomatic missions here the western diplomatic missions one should say have come out in support and have basically urged thailand not to deport her so in the past highlands has had this record of not being very thoughtful about refugees that were coming to thailand maybe only passing through thailand if there was a request for these people to be deployed to even to author a tarion regimes thailand would be very quick to send them back in this instance apparently pressure from the international community like through tweets like we've

seen from the german ambassador how it actually had a result have made the toews to reverse course basically because just a few hours ago they said that they would send her back and now they're saying we're the land of smiles we will not send anyone back to their death so apparently thai authorities have finally recognized that this is a serious matter and that they cannot send this woman back a developing story here florian but the very latest from bangkok thank you flora. a u.s. guided missile destroyer has sailed near disputed islands in the south china sea the destroyer cruise within twenty two kilometers of the paracel islands where beijing has military installations the islands are claimed by china taiwan and to be at na a spokeswoman said that the us has made campbell was on a freedom of navigation operation to challenge excessive maritime claims and the move comes just as u.s. china trade talks get under way in beijing we're going to have

a listen to china's reaction. pool where it will either china resolutely opposes the actions of the us i don't want to give a new me we urge the u.s. to immediately stop such provocative steps china will continue to take the necessary measures to defend its national sovereignty and security and. and this new development as we mentioned could really strain eagerly awaited trade talks kristoff cobar has that side of the story that's right zero so far the only optimistic rhetoric on the trade issue china says it's willing to work together with the united states to resolve the months long dispute between the two countries the foreign ministry expressed optimism as talks resumed in beijing now the meeting is the first one since u.s. president donald trump and his chinese counterpart agreed to a ninety day truce in their trade war last month. the u.s. and chinese representatives will need one key quality staying power these trade

negotiations are set to be long and difficult nonetheless there's real hope that the trade conflict may finally be brought to an end china has already opted to ease tensions by lifting its ban on imports of u.s. only be and suspending extra tariffs on american cars business leaders are expressing cautious optimism we're seeing an acceleration of many of the policies that china is committed to implementing to fall within this ninety day negotiating period indicating that we china is making signals to show that there is opportunity for progress here. with tumbling markets pressure from agriculture and from industry the conflict is clearly making itself felt in the u.s. the latest example being apple's revised outlook over falling sales. the trade war is hurting big enterprises in the us president trump is facing huge

economic pressure and political difficulties at home so compared with the past number of months president trump is now more willing to reach a truce on the trade war if he can get china to make enough compromises. yet despite the bravado china is suffering too as a result of the dispute high import prices and reduced exports a weakening economic growth both sides feeling the pressure. for of course a market reaction to these trade talks let's bring in ali bards our financial correspondent ali what do investors think are positions that both sides could soften in order to reach a compromise. well the u.s. could soften its scruples on the technology that the chinese have to offer in terms of for example who way with its mobile phone and telephone network technology that it thinks might bring some sort of spy element into the customer

base and into the united states or and perhaps also into european customer bases and the chinese side the u.s. would like to see a little bit more progress on respecting intellectual property that is not stealing other people's ideas and not demanding as much of the transfer of technology and knowledge if you want to get into business with the chinese these are two very important points but of course are very important to both sides so compromise will be difficult on these shores and only investors were pretty upbeat on the prospects of these talks this morning now european shares though are mainly trading to the downside what happened. yes i think a little bit of reality set in and i mean the margin for the magnitude of the share prices rising last week and also of course in asia that can't be continued indefinitely there has to be a little bit of

a pause especially as this is just the beginning of the stock cycle on trade we just mentioned in our report that the talks would be difficult and extended and it's not guaranteed that they'll be successful to the point that the market will become a relaxed and there's a possibility of course also a failure nobody would like to see that but i think that's an element that's playing into the way the reacting the markets are reacting at the moment but everyone's hopeful and seeing it as a good sign that people are sitting down at the table at the moment believe arts reporting from the frankfurt stock exchange thank you. four of the five military officers who attempted to stage a coup in the central african nation of cup on have been arrested in the capital libor ville according to government officials this after armed soldiers seized the station the state radio station excuse me monday morning and declared president ali bongo unfit for office sporadic gunfire was recorded in the capital and tanks were

patrolling the streets the leader is currently in morocco where he is receiving medical treatment for a stroke group. joining me now is ruth mclean a foreign correspondent for the guardian newspaper in dakar thank you so much for joining us ruth what can you tell us about what is happening in bonn at the moment . well as you say very early this morning in the cabin he's capital libra there are two men arrived at the state board cost and took over the radio and went announcing that they were basically staging a coupe and they said that the day had arrived when the army had decided to take the side of the people in order to what it said was saving gone from chaos and called on the galleries people to rise up and take to the streets and occupy public buildings and the athletes and the country's media organ that said that was

that at about four thirty local time in labor bill that that happened and there were reports of shots being fired also near the state broadcaster about staying time. you know several hours later now and it does look like dooku might be all over even before it started there are reports from the communications minister that some of the coupons just have been arrested although i've also heard reports that. the main person who went on the airwaves and read out statement is still on the run so it's a bit of a not clear picture. the government says that they'll have order restored in the next two to three hours but it's a question of really watching this space and. just briefly before we go why was there satisfaction with president. well the voters have been in

power for a very long time and gotten out of bogus father. took power in one nine hundred sixty seven and it's been almost nothing but fungus since then so it has a lot of people are quite fed up they also point to the twenty six thousand election which was extremely close between ninety. nine up there is that. there was a lot of violence around that election and you know a lot of people thought that it was great at the moment and he goes out of the country and he doesn't seem to be very well he hasn't hardly had a stroke and that was one of the reasons that the losses cited in that would cause they said that he wasn't fit to run the country anymore with mclean foreign correspondent for the guardian newspaper joining us from dakar with the very latest on the situation and got on thank you so much it's thanks. and let's get a quick check of some other stories making news around the world but morial

services have been held in paris to mark the fourth anniversary of an islamic tack on the satirical newspaper charlie twelve people were shot dead including four cartoonists and editor of the newspaper so religious leaders and top french officials attended the service. german media say that federal police have searched a flat in the southwestern city of brawn in connection with a massive data breach affecting politicians and public figures electronics belong to a nineteen year old man were seized nearly one thousand high profile germans had their data stolen and published online. well there have been a number of upsets at the golden globe awards in los angeles some of the films expected to sweep the board ended up failing to make the grade one of the big surprise winners was a movie about the british rock band queen another was the wife starring veteran actor glenn close we'll have the lowdown on the high points from hollywood in just

a moment but first this report. romney model at. the top price came as a true surprise. the jury chose bohemian rhapsody as best drama for romney mouth expert trail of queen front man freddie mercury his performance also earned him the best actor in drama for belongs thank you to freddie mercury for giving me the. time you need to format this is for the thirty third floor of. the diverting me glenn close was named as best actress in a drama for her role and the wife. when they came. close appeared stunned when her name was called and her deeply personal except in speech marked the emotional high point of the night. you know women we were nurture is that that's what's expected of us we have our children we have our husbands and

for lucky enough in our partners who ever but we have to find personal fulfillment we have to fill our. heart to be. we have to say i can't do that and i shouldn't be allowed to do that. the award for best foreign language film went to roma filmmaker alfonso ode to his childhood in one thousand nine hundred mexico he also picked up the price for best director. and lady gaga who everybody expected to climb to the stage as this year's best actress didn't have to leave empty handed together with her co-writers she received a golden globe for best original song. shallots vegan our very own scott rock's baro who has been following the awards and scott we have to say i mean bohemian rhapsody really the big surprise of the evening wasn't it. oh yeah definitely i didn't really have his i had remy malik on my list as

a potential best actor winner of the golden globes love a great imitation and he really recreates freddie mercury in this film but it's not the film at all on my list as a potential best picture winner because really it's a very mainstream movie and often the globes like the oscars like to go for something a bit more cutting edge of something a bit more ambitious artistically and that's why i thought a star is born would come away with the with the wind last night i mean it's a similar sort of big mainstream movie but goes a bit further is a bit darker takes a few more artistic chances bohemian rhapsody did but i don't know maybe this is the year that people want more warm mainstream entertainment and maybe that's what's going to be picking up the awards but it definitely surprised me i did not have it on my list also perhaps not surprising the fact that gender equality diversity really also on the agenda at the golden globes but it's likely

to impact the contracts there and hollywood's got. well i think i think it will actually. hollywood does tend to fall the money but as we've seen this year from the box office diversity has been paying off i mean two of the biggest films of the year were black panther and crazy rich asians which featured diverse casts this is the kind of thing that influences what hollywood does if you can show that there's a business behind it and there has been a large push since the me too movement to make for more not just more diversity but more equality in the industry and that is really taking real steps is there are baby steps at the moment but i think what you saw on the stage last night the golden globes is a sign of things to come things like what glenn close said about having more female stories on screen but also just this general idea that the inequality that has

dominated the hollywood industry has to change if hollywood also as a business is to move forward scott what were your favorite moments of the golden globes if you say. well quite a few i could go with christian bale thanking satan for his portrayal of dick cheney former vice president dick cheney in vice but i have seen from my personal favorite moment was carol burnett the legendary comedian and t.v. comedian who is a childhood heroes of mine receiving her lifetime achievement award which is not as well known in europe she was very much a t.v. comedian but her sort of a septa speech was summed up at the golden globes where this year it was inclusive she's a pioneer female pioneer comedian but it was also warm accepting and also very sort of broad and mainstream which is for me the big surprise this year as well that the globes try to embrace everyone and not be too divisive and i think that's for me

will stay in my memory and how she closed her speech with her trademark pull of a year after he was magic scott rock's verilog would beat as always thank you so much. now handball world championships starts this thursday in berlin and it opens with a unique match germany versus korea it will be korea's first ever unified appearance at a handball ball championship with north korean players being integrated into the south korean team they've been training together in berlin for two weeks to make sure that their athletic impact is as big as their diplomatic one. the match between the korean handball world championship squad in german third division side potsdam may have just been a pre-tournament warm up but it was still somewhat historic for the first time ever korea has a unified handball team with players from both countries in the tournament opener korea coach show young shin squad will face co-hosts germany in the german capital

. the world championship is really meaningful for us especially since we'll be playing in berlin we're in was a divided city have found a way to peace after the fall of the wall as a unified team we want to show that korea can also find this way to. show young shane will only have had three weeks to integrate four players from north korea into the team a massive challenge in modern handball but the north koreans don't stand out much in training except for maybe their shoes which are the blue red and white of their flag. we felt a bit distant from each other when we first met the north koreans. grown closer in the days we've spent together and as i was and now we've become friends. and everything sounds rosy for the captain but his new teammate from north korea. has a more level take on this our first world championship we've got lots of expectations about what will experience and what we'll learn of course we also want

to strong showing you. north and south korea made history with a united women's hockey team at the winter olympics and young change the pre-selected north korean fans went birol in a p.r. coup for the regime but on the ice the first ever appearance of a combined team was a sporting disaster. coach show young shin is hoping to avoid a similar showing but that gap in quality between players from the north and south is significant. technically the north koreans aren't the strongest but they really want to integrate into the team. they're in top shape so i'll incorporate that into my tactics to take advantage of their strengths. and. promise to play at least one north korean in every world championship match in the tune up against pot stam only reak young son made an appearance his three countrymen to watch from the bench as korea fell to the german third division side. and now the tech

world is getting ready for the first big event of the year. that's right if they're even talking c.e.'s which of course stands for the consumer electronics show the big tech fair kicking off in las vegas on tuesday the artificial intelligence is likely to once again the tracked a lot of attention the technology is included in ever more hardware from autonomy cars to smart household helpers. this robot gets upset when it comes to help with chores. like folding towels but there's another machine for that just one of the many highlights from the twenty eighteen consumer electronics show which also featured. and do backflips. audi fishel intelligence will remain a major focus of this year's c.d.'s in las vegas but his firm cambridge consultants is among the more than five thousand exhibitors it's developed depraved and ai based system for vision the technology is learning how to read blurry images.

the machine is essentially creating a new image from scratch purely based on is understanding of what is the real world look like so in a way it's doing something quite similar to our mind's eye where we look at a distorted image through you know kind of glass which might be a pipe but we can call. construction i'm on what do we think the image looks like on the other side the technology would be valuable for driverless cars it could help the vehicles cameras deliver a clear image even when it's raining autonomous cars will also be in the spotlight at this year's c e s. and staying with the tech sector of the loft hate relationship between apple and samsung is looking well a bit more loving at the moment after the rival tech giants agreed a deal that will see apple's i tunes movies and t.v. shows made available on samsung's smarts t.v.'s it comes after apple said it planned to offer more services to reduce its dependence on i phone sales revenue last week its shares plummeted after ignored as i wouldn't do to meet demand for i
