this is d w news live from berlin britain treats the u.s. president to a lavish welcome a state banquet with the queen and to praise for a friendship between nations that donald trump calls the tunnel but elsewhere in london there is a very different reception awaiting the president also coming up sudan's military can seize all previous agreements with the opposition and calls for new elections that's after troops opened fire on protesters killing dozens and hundreds more plots on the 30th anniversary of china's human square crackdown d.w.

speaks with the father and son whose lives were changed forever after being witnessed the massacre. i'm sorry kelly welcome to the program u.s. president donald trump is in london on a state visit to the united kingdom he has been greeted with official pomp and ceremony but significant protests are also expected later today last night queen elizabeth hosted trump at a banquet at hem palace she spoke of the long alliance between the u.k. and the united states trump is today due to meet prime minister theresa may and senior members of the government for talks. correspondent charlayne potts is standing by in london where she is covering trump's visit for us so as we've heard it's all about politics today with trump meeting prime minister theresa may what's

expected. so this morning and to read some mail hosting a business roundtable with business people from the u.k. and from the u.s. of course trade and business they're on the agenda in particular the u.s. u.k. trade deal for after breakfast so when the u.k. has finally left the european union trump is very eager to push a deal through after that may and trump will be here at downing street right behind me trump will be greeted by mr and mrs may they will then have a working lunch with those delegations where another topic will be discussed that is very close to mr trump's heart and that is the topic of the chinese telecommunications company who or why. this is something he wants to once the u.k. to ban to build the next generation network here in the u.k. he wants the u.k. to ban world wife from that and he's trying to convince theresa may by threatening

to withhold intelligence information so this will happen today then after the working lunch they will hold hold a joint press conference of course that's going to be a very interesting thing to watch and then after that theresa may will take mr trump to the churchill war rooms and another big question for today is whether mr trump will meet a possible successor off to reason may because we have to remember this visit of president tram to the u.k. comes at a very chaotic time in british politics with 2 recent may resigning as the leader of the conservative party and then effectively as prime minister in the summer so everything that's going to be decided is for her successor basically to take over and the big question is will mr trump meet boris johnson one of the possible successors to become prime minister and that might be also on the agenda later today. and charlotte we also know later today big protests are expected

can you tell us about that. absolutely we are expecting massive protests i've talked to one of the organizers that they might expect up to a quarter of a 1000000 people although that number might be a bit exaggerated because we have to remember to choose day at lunchtime so people might not get off work we are expecting though that central london is coming to a standstill still the protests will be around downing street st james's palace trafalgar square so very little traffic movement here in london we're also expecting the return of the trump baby blimp that big balloon that we saw last summer during trump's last working visit to make a return that's being depicted as a baby and diapason nappies. and jeremy call been the leader of the opposition labor posse will speak at those protests of course a huge statement against mr trump protests are coming out to protest mr stance on

human rights and climate change amongst other things who've been also boycotted the state dinner last night lavish banquet that was hosted by queen and honor and let's have a look. let's indeed have a more in-depth look at that. kickoff for this meeting we have. she loves glitz and glamour at buckingham palace didn't disappoint in the evening fit for a king at a state banquet with the queen. they didn't have to 9 by 2 or to rice and drink a toast to president and mrs trump for the continued friendship between our 2 nations and to the health prosperity and happiness of the people of the united states. go allies have more than fancy dinner on their plate trade wars iran

but trump's toast look back to a time when the mission was clear and the enemy to find this evening we thank god for the brave sons of the united kingdom and the united states who defeated the nazis and the nazi regime and liberated millions from tyranny as we honor our shared victory and heritage we affirm the common values that will unite as long into the future freedom sovereignty self-determination the rule of law and reference for the rights given to us by almighty busy god those rights are being vigorously exercised by british demonstrators they're protesting trumps visit in cities around the u.k. like here in bristol events in london are likely to be the biggest there the trump

baby balloon will make another lofty appearance above the heads of hundreds of thousands of people anticipated to take part. and we're seeing that balloon again charlotte we actually know that the balloon is currently being blown up right now so we will indeed see it later in the city some live pictures coming in for you there there's also major security measures we know in london what goes through why this is such a significant visit why should we care. well it's a very controversial visit obviously and the u.k. is very divided on it because mr trump comes not only at the time where basically nothing can be decided because prime minister to resign may is leaving as conservative leader at the end of this week but it is also a question of whether the u.k. should roll out the red carpet for a country for for president that is s. controversial as mr trump state dinner hosted or state visits were hosted for

barack obama and also for george w. bush but of course mr trump is a very concha controversial leader and so britain is very divided over the question of whether this state visit should have happened or not charles potts in london thank you. he had to sit down now where the military has canceled a power transfer agreement with protesters and called for elections the move comes a day after security forces opened fire on protesters killing at least 35 people and wounding many more there have been ongoing demonstrations in khartoum calling on a caretaker military council to make way for a civilian government after the fall of sudan's longstanding dictator omar al bashir. after weeks of sit ins ok patients in demonstrations the military opens fire on cartoons protestors.

heavily armed members of the paramilitary rapid support forces a unit formerly associated with massacres were deployed along the capital's main roads to disperse the protests. killing and injuring many. civilians have been conducting a huge city in central khartoum for weeks demanding that the transitional military council hand over power to the people. once news spread that the military had opened fire more protesters are out in the streets bill. barricades and calling for peace and more protests and. after the dispersant of the sit in we went back to the streets and squares and thank god with the help of the youth we closed the streets and we will close everything again god willing. the protesters cut ties with the military council off to the bloodshed and then the generals hit back on previous agreements with protest leaders are off they say they'll now hold elections within

9 months but it seems very much on the military's own terms where it is almost. the bloodshed has drawn international condemnation the secretary general strongly condemns the violence and reports of the excessive force used by security personnel on civilians that have resulted in the deaths and injury of many and he is a lawyer by reports that security forces have opened fire inside medical facilities both sides a calling for peace but with lines of communication down that won't be easy. and journalists are taken joins us now with the view from khartoum what is the situation like this morning. well it's a bit uncertain. unlike yesterday there has not been a lot of gunfire this morning so in that sense it doesn't groups from where i can see there are many troops on the street but that certainly does not mean that the capital has demilitarized in any way. really today's

a day of. people are mourning people are mourning people were killed people are mourning the loss of the sit in which had become basically a city within a city people are still trying to count the dead and wounded so and of course we both sides now it's calling off any talks and they're huge and. there's a lot of uncertainty as to as to what will happen next. there are reports that there will be new demonstrations. even holidays coming up or is upon us actually so as people are burying their dead and going up celebrate ied it's possible that that those events take a strong political tone and on the political level i mean we have the military here scrapping the power transfer agreement with protesters and calling for elections with a 9 months this looks like

a military power grab is it. well they're already wasn't a year from power grab sensually or maybe we could say that the military simply never gave up power they simply would remove. the chair and some of his associates but every man from control ever since. and we've seen you know the killings yesterday that they will use force to ensure that general is jason patinkin what else can we still expect today. well one thing that we are wondering about of course is the exact that toll so a doctor's committee linked to the protests has said that the death toll is $35.00 . but there are many wounded and access to hospitals has been seen or with reports of military surrounding even chancery hospitals one of the main things we'll be looking for today is a clear account of. who was killed who was wounded and how many yesterday the other

thing that that is possible of course are. more or demonstrations demonstrations continue in other parts of crack sume and surrounding areas last night roads were barricaded. so you know the people it's not like the people are backing down people have been protesting for months so we can well look out for more demonstrations possible change taken in costume thank you so much thank you. let's get a quick check of some other stories making news around the world italy's prime minister decepticon today has said that he will resign if the 2 parties in the governing coalition do not stop squabbling the far right leak party and the populist 5 star movement have been arguing for months over a range of issues on take who has no party affiliation says that he now wants a clear and expedient response. gary and in south korean divers in budapest have
