3:03 pm
by with the very latest outside of parliament in london bear get all of this really adding to confusion and an already chaotic situation what does this move actually need for braggs it. well it means that so many parliamentarians here now as of parliament where i am are adamant that they don't want to leave without a deal they recognize that it would have really severe repercussions of for the business is also for security and they have made it clear that for them they want to do everything they can to somehow get gets a deal now it's reason may is still hoping that her deal will go through and she's still to go sheeting with the european union but for the fast time she has now said that if she can't get a deal through parliament that she will look for a short extension but not longer than the end of june because then otherwise we would be in trouble with the e.u.
3:04 pm
parliament elections and that she has ruled out so she says she doesn't want to have an extension but if the parliament wants it it will get an extension if she can get her deal through in time so i mean did the members of parliament essentially going to decide whether they want to postpone leaving the e.u. bigot which way is this vote likely to go. from what we know now and it's really difficult to say because it's all happening as we speak the situation on brakes it is really sort of evolving every day every hour but for what we know now it doesn't look very likely as though it's reason may rule have something that she brings back from brussels that her own parliament ariens can agree on at the middle of march but then again there is still a couple of weeks' time and reason may obviously hopes that she can somehow find a solution for this sort of pesky problem of law the law and as many here would probably describe it because that's really where it would get stuck and where many
3:05 pm
inner own party are looking for sure and says that the e.u. is not going to give the so-called backstop this is the crucial issue so she is hoping that she can get some sort of wording some sort of compromise that would be enough for her party here in london to agree to it but if not then there is this possibility of an extension how about you know wait over in left field bear get the talk now of a new referendum we know that the opposition leader jeremy korb announced yesterday that he would support it is this even a possibility now because i mean we are nearly a month away from the brags that deadline on this if just console two thousand there is no other way than to give it back to the people and i've just spoken to one of those labor m.p.'s who really has been fighting for a second referendum ben bradshaw and he said well it's also a good way for the prime minister to get her deal three because if column and you know if it's palm and rejects it and we are in the situation that maybe there might
3:06 pm
be a second referendum this would be on the table so the british people could then decide that they want to reserve may steal so he argues for her actually not such a bad solution but three's a mayor self at the moment and she said that again today she doesn't want a second referendum she wants to get had a deal as it is. now as it will be in two weeks she wants to get that deal through parliament she argues an extension would just present another cliff edge and then the u.k. could still crash out without a deal which she doesn't want and that's a many majority of parliamentarians really adamant that they don't want that ok another crucial vote on bragg's that mass thank you so much. that the e.u. has called on india and pakistan to exercise maximum restraint amid sharp escalations in tensions between the two nuclear powers telling overnight targeted what it called a terrorist camp inside pakistan indian media say that up to three hundred people
3:07 pm
may have been killed in that raid it is the first time in many years that indian warplanes have crossed the line of control dividing the contested kashmir region pakistan acknowledged that india violated its airspace but denied reports of casualties tensions have been growing since kashmiri separatists killed forty indian soldiers two weeks ago and the indian foreign secretary says the delhi acted on credible intelligence that pakistan based militants were plotting more attacks across india in the face of danger of a preemptive strike became absolutely necessary in an intelligence led operation in the early hours of today india struck the biggest training camp of the just a moment. in this operation a very large number of gentian a moment to this tree knows c. the commandos and groups of jihad these who are being trained for free they in
3:08 pm
action would eliminate to. and the pakistani foreign minister issued a warning to india not to challenge his country he called india's action and aggression against pakistan any violation of the line of control he said that pakistan reserves the right to an appropriate response and it involves defense of the war on the story i'm joined now by political analyst. in islam about and correspondent. is standing by in delhi and the mission i'd like to begin with you and just get a sense of how significant these strikes are what are the significance of this these strikes here just primarily on the attack that happened in fish feed on february fourteenth less than two weeks ago forty indian security forces lost their lives in the third attack and ever since then the country has been waiting and watching the public has been calling for action against pakistan there's been a lot of onboard mongering sentiment on the streets and because back when the
3:09 pm
similar attack happened in twenty sixteen india claimed to have shouted out a surgical strike another strike was expected this finally is that moment where india has scouted out a strike came from i found out a strike in pakistan and as we heard the foreign secretary say this was a strike that the a c. is preemptive and that a gesture but camp was wiped out not the claimed responsibility for that attack and push me so this is india pushing back this is and asserting that such data would not be tolerated in the valley and of course india and pakistan have gone to war at least twice before over the issue of kashmir so this is exactly the kind of cautioning that india wants to put forward at this point ok so that's the view from india meantime we have the response from the pakistani foreign minister essentially saying that the country is reserving the right to an appropriate response in its self-defense and it does with that i'd like to turn to you what could we expect from the pakistani side now. well as up now the response from the pakistani side
3:10 pm
has been very very calculated measured the the prime minister headed to a meeting of the national security council and the foreign minister just spoke with the media a few minutes ago and the consensus emerging from all those meetings there the prime minister's office where the army also participated as being to in gauge with the world with the world propagators diplomatically but istana reserves the right this said for a retaliation but it would not retaliate and would or would rather focus on diplomatic efforts diplomacy for uprising the word of pakistan's position and the position is that yes there were missions are taken place but as far as the government is concerned army operational consent they're denying they're denying the kind of damages that india is claiming from these aerial strikes ok so you
3:11 pm
think essentially a measured response here but the nimish i mean the reality is that there have been asking leading tensions arm but tween these two countries just put this into context for us because there is a long history here of course. well it's all of us is the creation of india and pakistan fish meat has been a flashpoint between the two countries as i've mentioned two wars have been fought over box but what a fight over kashmir excuse me but what is truly significant about this particular strike is that india if it did carry out a strike in the location where it says it did could crossed the line of control another line of control of the defacto line the drones between india and the state bushmeat and pakistan of mr bush me and even back when the last war over bushmeat happened in one thousand nine hundred ninety the fog of war indeed on forces did not breach the elo sea however this time they have not only crossed the elysee beyond pakistan administered kashmir but they've actually gone into pakistani
3:12 pm
territory which is what makes this strike significant back in twenty sixteen when a similar attack on indian security forces led to the loss of nineteen lives off indian soldiers india also had claimed that had got it out of surgical strike that in that incident also would have cost the l a c. but it has believed that it was only only went as far as box on occupied this means that this is one of the deepest attacks that india may have got about and of course this is something that is being congratulated here in india but for the action of course is dependent on how exactly pakistan reacts and how india decided to stick this forward to and even times perhaps you can weigh in when we talk about this because i mean another. factor perhaps here is that we also have a new prime minister also there in pakistan just talk with us you know about the approach that he is having especially with dealing with this militant group. well i think pakistan's up prime minister as well as the army leadership has been very
3:13 pm
clear about all these militant groups that they really are unwanted that they have to be dealt with but then they also explain that it has its own social political argumentations and disks associated with it two or three organizations have said have a huge number of following it's to religious ceremonies they're running across the country several hundred and about half a million a young students are studying at those women it is primarily religious studies so there is a there's a difference between militants terrorists and the students who are the seminaries and it's instead later difficult proposition paxson is trying after having banned them in two thousand and two it's trying to neutralize the impact of these militant organizations constrain them in their activities and opportunity has been no nor allegations you know from the from india in this case this was strange that there
3:14 pm
was a curious claim of responsibility and india has made that view this claim as the justification for getting out rice incursions into the sunnier space when i thank you very much and it has good in islamabad and the mission gys fall in delhi we appreciate your insight. let's get a quick check now of some other stories making news around the world the u.n. is appealing for four point two billion dollars to fund aid for yemen which it describes as the world's worst humanitarian crisis the organization says that twenty million people lack stable food supplies after four years of war it comes as an international donor conference opens in geneva switzerland. u.s. vice president mike pence and dennis well as opposition leader one white oh have agreed on a strategy to ramp up the pressure on president nicolas maduro they met at a summit of regional leaders in colombia it follows deadly clashes between supporters and venezuelan security forces on the borders of colombia and brazil and
3:15 pm
the vatican has responded to the conviction of australian cardinal george pell lot of five counts of sexually assaulting children describing it as painful news pel the vatican's former treasurer says that he is innocent and has already logged an appeal against the conviction a court in melbourne found that pell was guilty of assaulting two thirteen year old choir boys in the late one nine hundred ninety s. . i don't know if it will make it to your other post for you cardinal george pell was heckled as he left his latest court hearing in melbourne for now he's free but people outside the court were calling for a tough sentence. the catholics can be told a week i'm on that he be excommunicated from the church george pell is amongst a freak he has to be joe not so hard in detention none of these very weak justice we want to seem gyle we want to see him for all i even tell. the jury found out
3:16 pm
tells sexually assaulted two choir boys in a melbourne cathedral in one thousand nine hundred ninety six the unanimous verdict was handed down on december eleventh but due to a suppression order reporting is only now being allowed a previous trial resulted in a hung jury. pell has always denied the charges for things i'm simple. i'm innocent of these charges of falls the whole idea of sexual abuse is power and to me. hell is on leave from his role as treasurer the third most powerful position in the vatican. he is also australia's most senior catholic cleric. indeed. pope francis has in the past praised for his response to abuse but his conviction is another stain on
3:17 pm
a church whose leaders are accused of failing to deal with child sexual abuse within their ranks. now final preparations are underway for the second summit it's wein at the north korean leader kim jong un and u.s. president donald trump in the last few minutes trump has landed in a vietnamese capital one knowing meetings are due to begin on wednesday the two leaders will discuss ways to implement a promise by pyongyang to give up its nuclear weapons security has been stepped up ahead of that stuff. and earlier i asked our correspondent heartache in high noyo what we can realistically expect from the trump camp summit. sara that really much depends very much on who you ask you ask south korea for example not party to the summit but still one of the countries that's most affected by its outcome they're going to tell you they want sanctions to be lifted because they want to hand their economic cooperation with north korea now north korea wants to say because they want to develop their economy now in addition to that they might also be pushing
3:18 pm
for some sort of declaration to end the korean war now the u.s. on the other hand they want north korea to give up their nuclear weapons now they know with the trumpet ministration knows that that's not something that's going to happen quickly and it's definitely not something that's going to happen here so president trump has already started downplaying expectations ahead of this summit saying he would already be happy if north korea kept not testing nuclear weapons or ballistic missiles because one thing's for sure sarah both leaders they need something that they can sell as a victory at home and if you think a president trump for example he already has the next elections in mind now when it comes to a d. nuclearized korean peninsula i mean this is ultimately what donald trump what the united states wants. what can both sides offer to really feel this. well first i think they would have to agree on what each side means by
3:19 pm
denuclearization because for the u.s. denuclearization means north korea has to give up all their nuclear weapons that means their whole nuclear weapons stockpile all capabilities to produce nuclear weapons now kim jong un on the other hand has said he agrees to not use make or proliferate nuclear weapons and those are all things that look into the future not into what's already there so that's one of the major sticking points of these negotiations now how and if the leaders are going to resolve that sarah only time will tell us and heartache and noise thank you. in a not expected move iran's foreign minister mohammed javits everyone has tendered his resignation he made the announcement on social media offering an apology for what he called his shortcomings it's not clear whether president hassan rouhani has accepted the resignation a number of prominent members of parliament have called on zarif to withdraw the offer. a modern take on resigning but more homage of odd saudis instagram
3:20 pm
post was vague he offered an apology for all the shortcomings in flaws but gave no reason for his departure all of this was written on a drawing of facts ima the prophet muhammad's daughter whose birth was being commemorated on monday. in tehran a foreign ministry spokesperson quickly confirmed the news but also gave no reason . it's an abrupt end to more than five and a half years as a rainy and foreign minister zarif had a prominent role in negotiating the landmark two thousand and fifteen nuclear agreement between iran and major international powers in exchange for limiting nuclear activities to run had economic sanctions lifted but saudis has been under pressure since the united states withdrew from the pact he expressed his frustration at washington at the munich security conference earlier this month. we have long been the target of an unhealthy fixation
