a twenty seventeen pandemic of terror with this now the fifth and every attack demands more security measures and public vigilance crowded guard. following the van attack on westminster bridge they put up a concrete barriers to prevent a similar salt earlier this month london's metropolitan police came up with another measure to stop the vehicles targeting large crowds steel spikes road mats to be rolled out a big events but just days after the announcement london was hit by different kind of attack the weapon this time was concealed in a simple plastic bag and bucket and left on the tube during rush hour cordoned off behind me is the area where the fifth terror related incident to shake the u.k. in recent months took place early friday morning in a train topped with commuters were a homemade device partially detonated commuters described the scene as a stampede with people running for their lives just what is lost in memory of the baby in the car with the mom a man was shot in grand run so we'll piles off the train and just run for our lives

we were literally running for our lives and i saw for a second i'm about to jump over what old boy like but the other choice asian with a beautiful bump and go into the steve jumping into over another terror attack has slipped by the authorities but the location this time has left many shocked and questioning where they go from here is the following that anybody. can do anything like that we're not taking this that way like let's take let's walk it's kind of scary as authorities investigate this latest incident to see what should and could have been done the attackers seem to be one step ahead creating a new unnerving and unpredictable norm and a party london. the year ago with america said doug living with the threat of terrorism is something londoners just have to accept.

you won't succeed but you want to fight us we will become terrorists. you will see over the next few days i mean chris number. across. the attempts to. make countless acts of kindness that brought people closer together. and. they continue to be visible patrols around. which include the deployment of. will see an increased police presence today and over the course of the next few

days no reason to be a long. road but. he. will see an increased number of peaceable police. another big story of the week. or week of standoff over north korea on monday the u.n. security council passed a resolution on new sanctions after pyongyang's nuclear test earlier this month although the original draft prepared by the u.s. was renegotiated to see live vote washington had wanted a full oil. embargo against north korea but the final resolute. imposed only a cap on the country's exports the original draft also demanded a travel ban and an asset freeze against the north korean leader but that didn't

make it into the final draft either and the us president was not impressed by the compromise the united nations. we think it's just another very small step. not a big deal rex and i were just discussing. not big i don't know but has any impact but certainly it was nice to get a fifteen to nothing vote but those sanctions are nothing compared to what ultimately will have to happen well it's certainly disturbing to hear these words from donald trump in the aftermath of a vote at the u.n. security council at this point we're hearing u.s. leaders again talking harshly about more sanctions sanctions against russia sanctions against china if china doesn't follow these sanctions we will put additional sanctions on them and prevent them from accessing the u.s. and international dollar system and that's quite meaningful in the aftermath of a resolution being passed unanimously at the u.n.

security council and what many saw as a victory for diplomacy the words that we heard from u.s. leaders on the floor of the security council were rather diplomatic we are not looking for war the north korean regime has not yet passed the point of no return if it agrees to stop its nuclear program it can reclaim its future if it proves it can live in peace the world will live in peace with. the latest sanctions imposed by the u.n. security council a result of the heinous u.s. attempts to isolate and suffocating country. place in violation of us over and that's why we totally reject and condemn these sanctions many people whose hopes had really been raised for peace and diplomacy being victorious while those hopes are starting to dampen the are starting to be some some fear that perhaps once again we are in the danger of a global conflict or some kind of war breaking out in the crisis in the korean

peninsula could be once again intensifying this is just another on the roller coaster and saying that every week it with the war record goes up very high than that maybe this conciliatory talk some cooperation some diplomacy and then more threats of military force we'll go with the next step is going to be the real question is going to be when do we actually get to a diplomatic track that allows us to step down. after washington's calls for new sanctions north korea carved out a missile test on friday according to the site korean military the projectile reached an altitude of seven hundred seventy kilometers and traveled almost five times that distance before falling into the ocean and just like the tests carried out a number of weeks ago the missile flew right over to pan triggering alerts on ok to island however not everyone in japan felt threatened by the launch. but to be frank i don't feel like japan is their target their target is the u.s.

that's why the missiles are just pressing on with japan and i don't think north korea will drop directly on us and say. it's a missile destroyer of strength good because we have to go to school. we were. taking it seriously. or south korea reacted to friday's missile test with a military drill near the border with the north and although the south korean president threaten p.r. young with quote destruction beyond recovery the rule died stationing nuclear weapons former u.s. congressman ron paul told us washington should let the korean leaders resolve the crisis themselves. why couldn't we encourage and get behind saying look south korea we encourage you to talk to north korea and see if you're going to sit down maybe united states and china could both be observers or something and they get it moved on but not for us constantly stir up trouble by having our military confrontation

about building up and having these war games what are these war games where are they practicing you know is so unnecessary and confrontational and it doesn't mean that if we didn't have war games that we would give up something on our defense our side has to worry about the bush doctrine which tries to you know make it our official policy that you need to have preventive war well preemptive preventive war is aggression and that i don't lie. spain's rest of region of cuss lumia so a million people turned out in support of independence on monday and ahead of its referendum in two weeks time emotions have been running high throughout the week and leaders there say that a photo is choose independence will be declared within forty eight hours.

i. thought. well a national government is vehemently opposing the push for independence this by significant local support and hundreds of council officials gathered on saturday in a clear show of defiance against the trade route days earlier more than seven hundred discovered they face prosecution by the government for supporting the independence vote spanish authorities have already shut done the separatists official website although it has since moved to a new domain. well when catalonia held its first symbolic referendum in twenty fourteen again the authorities in madrid were not happy. that the vote comes to choose and even threaten to kick the legendary barcelona football team of league of the national league but it didn't deter me as leaders or dent their popularity then

after a pro independence party secured a majority in council only as parliament it insisted that region would secede anyway in turn in march madrid all the pressure and even barred castle on officials from holding public office for organizing the referendum. so why does spain fear the vote well there are a number of reasons let's take a look at some of them in catalonia if it goes its own way spain would lose almost seventy percent of its territory on the richest part. it would also lose over seven million of its population in other words a fifth of its tax earnings twenty percent of exports would go round a quarter of all spain's tourists in addition incidentally capitally has a third of all spain's olympic medalists well over the past few years supporters of separatism have been pushing their message through colorful headline grabbing

rallies. to make things worse for sprains leaders as many as forty percent of calculations are in favor of independence according to the latest polls one we spoke to say xmen grades treatment of council lumia shoes polished democracy is no linkage. if you look at what this person with that is to mask i think it's very sad it's more than just indignation to see the democratic the generation of the spanish state and this

feels bad this is what we regret most of all but that's all we are calm we have a lot of work to do in the minister palates and we'll continue working for the people that's what is important for us the my jury two of the members of the parliament of the council on the on the bottom and i in favor of thinking that the nuns eighty percent of the catalan six and shape is in favor of their referendum of sovereignty i mean a show to ask. if they want or not but that they were doing that referendum by without despondence a state because that's what we don't do it unilaterally because we want to hide anything. they keep all for in the span it's a state to negotiate and to be forced to dissipate in these democratic exercise but it's up to them more of the week's top news after this.

seems wrong. just don't. get to shape out. active. and in the game. trail.
