and when it was finished a decade ago, it became this emirate's calling card to the rest of the worlde this mosque, they were making a statement, weren't they, about abu dhabi? oh, yeah. absolutely. what were they trying to say? i think, you know, when people think about the united arab emirates or the middle east, the first city that comes to your mind is definitely dubai. but i think after we built this mosque and it was the vision of the late, his highness zayed bin sultan al nahyan, he knew that this was going to be the icon that will bing people to abu dhabi and will show the true message of the middle east. 10,000 visitors come here every day. inside, up to 40,000 worshippers can be accommodated on key days in the islamic calendar. just look at the details of every single part of the mosque. it is absolutely beautiful. the carpet is from iran. you have the chandeliers up above us. in fact, this is the largest handknotted carpet in the world, and this gold chandelier is one of the biggest in the world. islam is regarded here as a living, breathing faith, with verses from the kora

yemen's transport minister has accused the united arab emirates of trying to fragment the country by creating regional and tribal alm is sol it. is also warning that al-qaeda is spreading its influence by exploiting internal conflicts in the of the shia. the situation is very bad at all liberated areas particularly those in the south where there are tribal lobbies established and supported by the united arab emirates there are also provincial armies and there are gangs even al qaida is spreading there in large parts of the governorates has never been as present as it is right now. well as in bahrain is a visiting fellow at the european council on foreign relations he's a specialist on yemen he's joining us live now from beirut and adam what should we read into this statement being made by a member of the officially recognized government i mean it's certainly interesting for these comments to be coming out at this time when you look at. the tone and substance is not actually that new before he was named a minister he was frequently saying similar comments it's his position as a commen

washington at some point in april and the emir has accepted that invitation so it seems as if there is more movement it does appear that other leaders from the region are going to be coming to washington as well but the vaulted effort to try to have some kind of summit to try to resolve the g.c.c. crisis in particular that is still very much up in the air all right for now thank you very much roslyn jordan with the latest on that story from washington some of amsterdam's iconic canals have frozen over as basically cold temperatures great much of europe authorities have banned boats on the canals so that locals can skate on the frozen waterways assistant snow and freezing conditions from a siberian cold snap a causing delays in many parts of britain as well in mainland europe with roads and train services hit very hard. hundreds of flights will have been affected as barker reports from london's heathrow airport. there be many more disruptions up and down the country is the so-called peace from the east crossing much more arctic and a much more snow to get up and down the u.k. and across

that they agree to holding a dialogue which is something they haven't agreed to until now while the emir of qatar his highness will be coming at the end of this to kind of sum up what will happen at the at the dialogue their state department apparently they're trying to dilute the issue saying that even if there was a summit held in camp david the crisis will not be the only issue on the table so even if they couldn't succeed in breaking a deal of brokering a deal at that time they did say that we had a discussion about. iran about the other issues and the region and kind of let that crisis issue unfold as it goes however i'm still very skeptical that such a summit can happen within the current climate shift what kind of pressure do you believe the u.s. could apply on leaders of gulf countries to make this happen. it's very possible that the pressure. a combination of. pulls on so many things there are so many economic and. so many deals in the pipeline. there is a lot of. elements of protection a military umbrella i think america and the u.s. does have leverage and it doesn't have to be

i think, you know, when people think about the united arab emirates or the middle east, the first cityitely dubai. but i think after we built this mosque and it was the vision of the late his highness zayed bin sultan al nahyan, he knew that this was going to be the icon that will bing people to abu dhabi and will show the true message of the middle east. 10,000 visitors come here every day. inside, up to 40,000 worshippers can be accommodated on key days in the islamic calendar. just look at the details of every single part of the mosque. it's absolutely beautiful. the carpet is from iran. you have the chandeliers up above us. in fact, this is the largest handknotted carpet in the world, and this gold chandelier is one of the biggest in the world. islam is regarded here as a living, breathing faith, with verses from the koran the inspiration for all the design and architecture here. but i wanted to know from 0mar if the grand vision in abu dhabi really includes everyone who lives here, like the expat community and the migrants who work in relatively low paid jobs. after all, the emira

but that's now in the hands of a third faction southern separatists supported by the united arab emirates south yemen was an independent country until one nine hundred ninety and nationalist sentiment remains strong al qaeda and other armed groups are also active in the region holding pockets of territory in the north and the south so let's take a closer look at the separatists well they're loyal to the southern transitional council s.t.c. and want the restoration of an independent south the s.t.c. was formed in may last year by a former governor of aden i don't. have been ousted by the government over accusations of disloyalty until recently the government and the s.t.c. have been united against a common enemy the who's the rebels but the battle over aden represents a new split in the already fractured country. well here to help us make sense of all of this our guests in london are a chef. gammon project coordinator for the international human rights group the premier also a former member of yemen's national dialogue from two thousand and twelve to two thousand and fourteen and from wash

and saudi and the size that they're backing part of why is it that the emirates has thrown its weight behind the southern sat protests i mean it's been trying to recruit or pushing to acquaint southern militias who are acting independently of the saudi about four cents for the best part of the last a year so why is it chosen that particular side i'm not sure why specifically that they thought that but the u.s. the. a lot a lot of this drug to many of the members of the law was very influential player in the current dynamics in yemen they're very close to the. i have decided to join the fight against against against the fifty's now the usa do share with them that goal and with the with the saudis as well they do agree that they are all of them together and to see that the usa in addition to the ones that results where i think islam would be a dominant player in the in the current in the in the future in the future of yemen in the south the this now is the most influential power with the consumerist consuming support if they were here of course that would weaken islam and the other on t

it's a shed and it's the emirates it's got that no need to read history it has a silo it seems even the finest brink of cool so they had you on that. note a couple of things first we have. they corinthians. yes. always in the world cup in brazil also this one around of course a lot one of brazil's biggest clubs that was directly influenced by i think football club as were several others so there is that one we've got the pink chocolates golf but the something in it and i'm going to boy to know that my cameraman locum wants to go i want to say well he's the dish it's cotton it's got the original corinthian well the corinthians badge crinkly in football that's what i. look at that be it's a going to come back i'm going to pay for it don't worry i don't want to be free but that is the original shirts which inspired him to give us the the the the great nines the great clubs that apart from corinthians. spoiled boy they sure are real madrid you know yes indeed los blancos. we toured out there and they were inspired one has got to remember that of course we was the principal probably of the w

making sure you can ferry as many passengers as possible so for bigger commercial airlines like emirates so planes like the a three eighty make sense but for small to mid-size carriers single aisle a three twenty jetliners are of course very attractive so you mentioned the long range version the a three twenty one that could be more interesting if they start looking to long haul flights what single aisle models of course you can pack more passengers in even if the psni the planes are smaller and the costs of flying them are also no or now airbus has been outselling boeing in this particular market so as such continuing down that path is strategically very sensible for them ok in terms of strategy certainly within the management there seems to be a quite a change on the horizon some some major shake up actually what do we know what's the biggest overhaul in a long time we know that three key figures are leaving john leave the head of sales he's in credited with much of airbus a success in the last thirty years as well as the head of the commercial planes division fabrice veges so they're
