no. prepares to meet south in korea. and, on in, but water is lovely, the world's -- and come on in, the water is lovely, the world's first shark sanctuary. hello. the international concern over iran's nuclear program escalated today with scathing condemnation with confirmation from tirana and has a second uranium enrichment plant. the american and french presidents led demands for the construction to stop immediately. russia's president urged iran to prove that there were not developing nuclear weapons. the iranian president said is not a secret, it is not operational, and it is legal. >> this is what it is all about,

iran's missiles, and becoming bent on becoming a nuclear power capable of dealing in a mass destruction, something they did not. for now, a grim-faced trio said to have been caught red handed. >> erratic is breaking rules that all nations must follow -- iran is breaking rules that all nations must follow, dying its own people access to the opportunity they deserve and threatening the stability and security of the region and the world. >> the level of deception by the iranian government and the scale of what we believe is the breach of international commitments will shock and anger the whole international community and it will harden our resolve. >> this is not the first time a hidden plant has been discovered. in 2002, it was the first hint of a secret weapons program. some while ago, american, british, and french intelligence discovered a new secret base

underneath a mountain. it is making enriched uranium. not enough for commercial use, but sufficient for weapons. they have gone public because there cover has been blown. many western experts do not believe that ahmadinejad is close to getting a nuclear weapon, but they want to act while there is time. >> why are you building a sedate -- secret nuclear plant? >> this was his first news conference reaction. >> we have no secrecy. and we work within the framework of the iaea. >> a source in the american government said it was a big setback for the iranian program and give them big diplomatic leverage over countries that were doubtful about putting pressure on iran. will the chinese be dropping their opposition for sanctions?

stay tuned, said the official. what are the options? for the diplomatic part, there is a meeting next week. the ball is in their court. sanctions, cutting off oil and petrol supplies. many hesitate, but france wants a december deadline. the military option, bombing the facility, something that israel is keen on, but britain and america are unenthusiastic. the president and the prime minister both welcomed the chance to sound tough to voters and have made this new revelation at just the right moment, to most effectively tighten the diplomatics group. many of the world's most powerful leaders are in pittsburgh, chiefly focusing on the global economic crisis. it is reported to have agreed to give the emerging economies more say in how the international financial system works. our special correspondent is at the summit. what of the report? what are the prospects for emerging economies?

>> i think very strong. the balance of power is shifting, moving away from the g 82 b g-20. when the communique comes out, it will confirm that the g 20 will be the international steering committee for the global economy. who loses? basically the small european countries. the four european countries, the members of the g-7, and there is a feeling that europe has had too much weight. more needs to be given to asia, china, india, brazil, a feeling there has to be balance when you look at economic strategy and the way out of the crisis. also, with power comes responsibility. i think it also means there will be more calls, more pressure on china to step up on climate change. that is the big debate of the week. >> britain's prime minister has

been telling the press there will be no return to the bad old days. he said it will be tough provisions in the final communique on bankers' pay and bonuses. this has not been easy, has it? >> it has not been easy, and gordon brown has said the language will be tough. we will have to look at whether it is just tough language for tough action. what is likely to emerge is separate states will set their own rules for their banking sectors. there will be recommendations to be able to pull back bonuses if long-term performance does not meet the standard. there will be a ban on multi- year bonuses. but the recommendations, they are recommendations rather than set strategy. the french said let's have a cap on bonuses, be more prescriptive, and i do not think we will see anything that strong. >> what about the iranian revolution? it is not a revelation to the

intelligence agencies of the west. was there something choreographed about this? >> perhaps, yes, because we understand that president obama was given some intelligence about the existence of the facility before he became president in a transition and the intelligence services have known for a while. now, tuesday, he put the pressure on tehran just before the critical meeting on the first of october. he has very much put the ball in the court of tehran and president ahmadinejad. his credibility is lower at this point and it was. we have a very strong statement from sarkozy, president of balmy -- president obama, saying that iran has to come clean or there is the prospect of a tougher round of sanctions. >> many thanks for that. the organization

spokesman came out and said that was not true, that if gas was being used, his officers would have been affected. that shows the kinds of arguments that are happening here. the tension is mounting. despite the diplomatic efforts of the united nations and organization of american states, everyone is waiting for a meeting between mr. saliva -- mr. zelaya and the interim government. he was once israel's prime minister, now he is in court on corruption charges. the trial of ehud olmert is under way. he insists that he is not guilty. >> it is the first time in israel's history that a former prime minister has been prosecuted in a criminal case. mr. ehud olmert arrived at the district court protesting his innocence at the allegations which drove him from office. >> i have been going through an

almost inhumane ordeal the past three years, slandered, investigations. i have paid a heavy price. >> there are three sets of allegations. he is accused of taking $600,000 of illegal campaign contributions from an american businessman. it is claimed that his trade and industry minister gave favors to businessmen represented by his law partner. the prosecution says he defrauded charities of $92,000 by double billing. the money which -- the money was allegedly spent on family holidays. in an interview just before the trial, he scoffed at suggestions that he might go to jail. >> i know that you believe that you will prove your innocence, but have you had to wrestle yourself with the prospect that you might end up in prison?

how do you feel? >> i laughed. >> in your mind, no possibility that could happen? >> the former prime minister did not testify today. that will come after his lawyers have examined all the prosecution's documents. the case is expected to last as long as four years. zimbabwe's president mugabe has used his address to the u.n. general assembly to criticize western sanctions on his country. he said south african nations have made huge sacrifices to help zimbabwe during the global economic crisis but western sanctions have not been lifted. mexican authorities have arrested five men accused of carrying out dozens of reprisal killings for one of the most powerful drug cartels. the believe the men were behind the tax in a city where 28 people were lined up against the wall and executed -- they

day i thought of her. >> the reunions are a reminder of the humanitarian cost of the division. in the early part of this decade, they were held regularly, but the last one took place in 2007 as tensions between north and south began to rise. this time around, once again, only a tiny number take part. just 100 families from each side. their names have been selected at random from the tens of thousands of people still waiting for a chance to find their long-lost relatives. ifor some of those lucky to make this latest trip, is still too late. this is the information returned about one particular individual 's relatives. after half a century of waiting, it makes grim reading.
