10:04 am
continuously encouraged the international community to weigh in because they say that we should have a plebiscite as was once planned that the media be clear should get to watch of course when it comes to india's perspective india believes and has continuously alleged that pakistan has fueled insurgency in the region so according to india pakistan would be willing to increase that but of course the line of control between india and mr. honest especially if your main sense and the region itself is in the complete communications lock down because of it the family is a midis in delhi are very wanted because they haven't heard any news from home for 40 years yesterday there was a protest in delhi which we went through and this is what we learn from what it cost me these. nasir is on has really hope. he does not know if he will be back because he does not know if he even so my. goal is to show me a police under law don't ever since india kept the specialist on the most. status
10:05 am
the state has enjoyed for 70 years. on his way to the airport nasir stops by this protest held in solidarity because. the last he heard she days ago was that his mother was speaking on well he does not know if she made it to the hospital last words she said to me i'm not feeling better tomorrow is my appointment with you so what i medical industry and that the model we passed the deployment of all of them stopped at home and reported on our doors so she could north texas she could not reach out with a doctor would i don't know whether my family's alive or. not since i'm the protesters have to see demands. it was the government's decision lift the communications blackout. and release arrested local leaders. many young fresh meets in delhi to work and study have joined and they have had no word from home because we will never accept that this meat is not come that out of course our
10:06 am
violent set up warning in except that we have no visas to conform whether it's true or not which makes us all the more anxious and voted for our families and the more the state will have to answer this someone like me was living independently for 8 years now i haven't known the feeling of home sickness for you and it's for the 1st time in iti was that i'm feeling homesick that i want to go home because my parents don't know why i didn't turn up at the airport i don't know if the even to the airport to fetch me despite feels for their own safety if they caught us open the they don't know what else to do. as voices for and against the government decision to vote across the country mean itself is silent a complete clampdown on journalists and a communications blackout has meant that angle feel and frightening rumors about the safety of loved ones back home run rampant was ok it was never there
10:07 am
yet. some scoff at this one claiming that any thought that's against the government's decisions and i national and being students. this school pressure not to shout down the protests against the government stop on all those who are you to stop the government's progress of auto what is your intent is the isis funding you are anti india foreign forces funding you what who are you. know as anger boys who were on board fired the shmita trying to decide whether it is better to mobilize top deaths here. or try to reach their families. for nasir despite the risks he knows he has to head home he has to at least try. to make sure your report points to all the tensions inside india and between pakistan and india at this point can a further escalation between delhi and islam abad be avoided at this point.
10:08 am
well brian in the past as well have been tensions have risen between the 2 countries and they have come very close to an escalation but somehow at the last minute a deescalation has been made possible and there was another escalation earlier this year in february but of course it's also important to point out that the action india has taken in india admits to me it is unprecedented and is massive when compared to the last 70 years of india's interventions and india's decisions when it comes to its own pots of push me also it's important to point out that both countries are making statements through ever since this decision has been made today. marks on prime this time around khan is expected to speak indian prime minister entering into more these speaking to the nation over the radio later this evening and the so that's also something that is not the norm for both of these are of course about the issue of me so
10:09 am
a father escalation is something that the region as well as the international community is watching about however i do have to point out that according to india this has not been an act of aggression apart into india this move has been about integrating push me for the into the country about bringing development is about granting me to the opportunities of course but spectators on the opposition claim that this is not the right way to do it so even have to wait and watch to see if both countries choose to stick with diplomatic and trade actions or if military escalation is possible for the along the line of control between the 2 parts of india in this to me and in parks found out and stood in the mission just well for us in delhi thanks very much for law in the us president donald trump has been visiting emergency workers and survivors of the mass shootings in el paso texas and dayton ohio were 31 people were killed and dozens wounded protesters in those cities have blamed trumps rhetoric for inflaming racial tensions in america why
10:10 am
have more from washington after this report. touching down in texas donald trump stepped into a border city where both the local politicians and the local community had come out to deliver a motional yet point of messages was about one foot where he says matters he's a person of how will someone people listen to you think you've got to be aware that what he says means something on a day when that the next time you know he's across the country are afraid that they may be next today of all days i mean let's hold the president accountable for the pattern of racism that has defined his administration. from the local people to local politicians many said the president had been slow to denounce the root of the problem. in this case we're dealing with domestic terrorists we're dealing with a white supremacist we're doing with racist though we may be said and for some the
10:11 am
problem of racism has been exacerbated by the president himself. for most of our recent history it's kind of flowed underground in this administration it's out in the open and it's coming directly from president trump who in no uncertain terms has vilified and tried to dish him and eyes the people of this community to be another of the president's would be replacements picked up the fight as grief and anger turned again to the question of who will achieve real change on gun control here and give you some for true he she is more concerned about losing their vote. beating back this hateful ideology he says guns are not the problem in mass shootings the issue is mental health it's a dodge a trick. isn't a mental health issue. that would be donald trump signed off his day in el paso by refusing to acknowledge any anger toward him there are a lot of heroes there are
10:12 am
a lot here of the love the respect for your office of the president. it was i wish you could have been in there to see it through a but at a time when polls suggest a clear majority of americans support introducing background checks to buy firearms trumps party has little will to reform the country's lax gun laws. ok let's go straight to washington where did abuse pablo foley alias is standing by for us good morning pablo president trump went to dayton and el paso to console the families of the victims and unite the shattered communities there did he manage to achieve that goal amidst all the political acrimony we saw there. well it depends on who you speak to brian of course the white house prior to donald trump's visit to dayton and so said that donald trump would be the healer in chief it was
10:13 am
a very well as choreographed and staged well staged visit to both of those cities donald trump matt survivors and medical professionals in private the focus was meant to be on meeting those but later photos of president on trump meeting those survivors and medical stuff was released now there was not any contact between president donald trump and the protesters in particular in el paso there was a significant number there and in fact they became quite heated down in the texan city but president donald trump avoided mentioning even the protesters he instead charged against what he referred to the fake media and of course the democratic party get published the political intensity of the of the attacks against president trump have been steadily increasing with former vice president joe biden now the
10:14 am
democratic party's leading presidential contender accusing him of quote fueling a literal carnage how much is this sentiment shared by the democratic party leadership. well as we heard in the report there as well as you know joe biden did not mince his words he charged against president trump as did many other of the candidates in fact we heard from a cory booker he blamed donald trump for encouraging hatred we also heard from betaworks from texas he suggested that. you know he said it was insulting for him and the people of so that in fact that he had made the trip down there we also heard from senator elizabeth warren she pledged to pass some serious legislation and had some stinging words as well against donald trump virtually old the candidates in the democratic party were you know is shared the similar message in
10:15 am
that they believe. a lot to answer for with regards his comments in recent days and weeks leading up to these 2 attacks in dayton and. we have seen some indications over the past few days that these shootings could lead to bipartisan action on gun control is that a possibility. i mean it's going to be very difficult brian of course there have been voices in particular in ohio in fact of course that's where the city of dayton is the republican governor there said that action must be taken and we also heard from a few more republicans in the state they have been quite critical and gone against what is quite we'll say regular kind of comments from members of the
10:16 am
republican party with regards to going controlled there has been a lot of mention of red flag laws and it does appear in fact that many republicans are in favor of those what are they they would be stricter controls in the sense that of course can issue an order where police officers or the police can take weapons all somebody who is potentially going to use those to harm people. like i said it's going to be very difficult to pass through the senate in particular considering that it's republican a republican majority there thanks so much from washington. let's bring you down some of the other stories making the news at this hour venezuela's president because my daughter has canceled talks with the opposition citing the new american sanctions imposed monday on the country the sanctions also prompted thousands to march in support of the doro the u.s. has thrown its full support behind opposition leader of one goh i doubt. new

10:21 am
reached new levels in recent days and we now have one chinese government official warning protesters that they shouldn't underestimate china's in men's strength is that beijing warning that it may step in to deal with the protests directly i think of the palace to come garmin to beijing and they seize this time the shooter they can crash them i need time and a moment under the they always have same tome when they're dealing with a new body a different voice and now they're facing hong kong which is a much complex situation and i think the edges off me now but. in deeply in their mind they would do it if they need to but do you think that the protesters in hong kong can continue to support that movement without any dialogue with the hong kong government and what are the options on the table right now for the hong kong government to i think of the hunger. is no such government
10:22 am
is there really part of the central government there listen to the central government i don't think of the really want to have a new space for now go shooting that's why the demonstrations have been continue for so long on the cause so much to hong kong. or buddies life and many young people already lost their life but the hong kong government simply doesn't hear the never prepared to really have for discussion and to solve the problem. but looking ahead now whatever the outcome of these protests do you think that something has fundamentally changed in the psyche of the hong kong people i think is a good question and i think the new generation of south for education self-educated this through this struggle and those they're more determined they're
