thank you, katty kay.hristian fraser presents the programme 100 days, focusing on the programme 100 days, focusing on the early stages of donald trump's presidency and the effect on the world. one of donald trump's earliest pledges as president was to overturn many of the financial regulations put in place following the 2008 financial crisis. the president has claimed the regulations are hampering job creation. on tuesday, president trump signed legislation striking down a rule that requires oil and gas companies to disclose payments to the us orforeign governments for commercial development. before we get into whether that is the right all wrong thing to do, can you explain to us what companies will be allowed to do that they couldn't previously, michelle? let's begin with the dodd frank act, introduced after the financial crisis, meant to stabilise the financial system is, after we saw a huge implosion here on wall street. then there was something known as the extraction rule within that, something that

"it's not his place to weigh in on the sensitive matter." not a ringing endorsement. mr flynn had shifted, he had said sanctions weren't mentioned, no he says he "couldn't be certain". next factor in the washington post, which has nine current and former officials saying sanctions did come up. we also know michael flynn has relations with senior russians. here he is at a banquet with vladimir putin last year. katty kay is in washington. i get that if he has done this, it matters and it could break the law. but it feels li

so do get in touch, this is 100 days from bbc news, from katty kay in washington and me, christian fraser hello. this is bbc news. the headlines. a scientist from newcastle university says banned chemicals from the 19705 have been found in the deepest reaches of the pacific. it's believed to be the first evidence of pollutants affecting one of the most remote habitats on earth. our correspondent fiona trott has more details. take a look at this. this crustacean that used to live ten kilometres down in the pacific ocean. what scientists at newcastle university have found is that there are chemicals inside that were banned in the 19705. doctor alan jamieson joins us, what does that mean for u5? joins us, what does that mean for us? it means some of the most remote marine habitats on earth are contaminated with chemicals entirely man—made, which i think is quite a sad story really. what kind of chemicals are you talking about? we found chemicals that were introduced in the 19305 and 405 for various industrial applications. they were accidentally released but eventually when it was realised t

that unfortunate. >> it's katty kay in washington. wrong from the white house. >> over the last ten days and 15 months, who knows. who knows what president trump is going to do at any moment and give offense to people that we need to be -- have confidence in us and we need to have confidence in our relationship with him. i thought secretary tillerson, yesterday, at the state department clearly made it very apparent that he understands that we are, in fact, in this together with our allies and we need to have the confidence of our allies and we need to have full communication with our allies so they are not surprised and not put out on a limb. i don't have a lot of confidence that president trump is going to learn that lesson. nothing the last 15 months gave us confidence he will. >> steny, john heilemann here. >> hey, john. >> dodd-frank is under assault now, today, executive order by donald trump about to dismantle it. to what extent can he do and what can democrats do to stop it? >> i haven't seen the executive order, therefore i ca

welcome back to 100 days with me katty kay in washington — christian fraser's in london.'s top story — iran put "on notice" and australia blasted for a "dumb" refugee deal — welcome to diplomacy, president trump style. iran is warned after firing a ballistic missile, but tehran hit back — promising to continue its missile activity and accusing mrtrump of "ranting." and coming up — as britain begins the formal brexit process what move will the scots make as many remain committed to breaking away from the uk? here in the uk the government has just published its official policy document setting out plans for brexit. yes, the brexit bill christian showed you yesterday is only one page long. 133 words. this is the strategy document to go with it. it puts a bit more flesh on the bones. i have been looking through it. i would pull out the three things. the prime minister is keen to sort out the future of those europeans already here in the uk. and also those brits living in europe. she wa nts to those brits living in europe. she wants to do that before negotiation begins and end

"an optimistic vision" for america has been promised and we'll reveal just why this speech by france's president hollande didn't go quite as planned. tunisia's response to a terror attack that left 38 people dead two years ago was "at best shambolic and at worst cowardly". that's the finding of the british coroner at the inquests into the 30 britons who among those shot dead on a beach. thejudge ruled they were unlawfully killed as some of those who survived gave their accounts. we were trying to seek refuge and did not know where to go. no one was directing us anywhere, it was a free for all, chaotic. once directing us anywhere, it was a free forall, chaotic. once we directing us anywhere, it was a free for all, chaotic. once we have found somewhere to hide we thought we would be relatively safe until as you say, people would come to help. people who had the responsibilities, the national guard, the police. but they did not come. and un

that's with katty kay in washington, and christian fraser in london at 7 o'clock on the bbc news channel a new phase — the far right leader marine le pen launches her campaign today — and looks like facing a serious challenge from the newcomer emmanuel macron. the former economy minister, a populist pro—european, has made his first major speech and has been rising fast in the polls. i have been getting the assessment of our paris correspondent about his popularity and the surprising turn that the campaign seems to be taking. it's probably too early to say that he is favourite for the presidency but given the structure of the election the second round. you get a cluster of candidates going into the first round in april and then the top two candidates will go through to the second round to battle it out for the presidency. at the moment it looks as if the traditional right and left parties won't make it into the second round, an astonishing result, given that these parties have had a grip on french politics for decades. instead you have emmanuel macron, the self—styled centrist, a former e

i'm katty kay in washington, christian fraser's in london. britain is about to take another decisive step towards brexit. yes, in the next hour, mps will be voting on a bill that will give the prime minister the power to trigger article 50 — the formal notice to quit the european union. this is the scene in the lower house of commons at the moment. i think the pm will be pretty pleased with the way it has gone. theresa may has seen off a rebellion from her own mps, who were threatening to support an opposition amendment. so, when it comes to the final vote this evening, the vote to send it on its way to the lords, we expect the bill to go through largely unchanged. i have been speaking to the conservative member of parliament anna soubry, who campaigned for the uk to remain in the eu. 48% of people in the uk voted to remain and so did a large number of mps and people watching, particularly those outside the country, might be surprised you caved in so easily. nobody has caved in. i have voted in effect in everything i believed in but i made a

i'm katty kay in washington, christian fraser is in london.sident trump in the last hour has been speaking to members of the us armed forces in tampa, florida. this is his first addressed to troops as their commander—in—chief and he has been speaking in particular about nato. we have your back, every hour of every day, now and always. that also means getting our allies to pay theirfairshare, means getting our allies to pay theirfair share, they are means getting our allies to pay their fair share, they are very unfairto us. their fair share, they are very unfair to us. they strongly support nato. we only ask that all of the nato. we only ask that all of the nato members make theirfull and properfinancial nato members make theirfull and proper financial contributions to the nato alliance, which many of them have not been doing. 0ur north america correspondent, nick bryant, is here. you were sitting with me in the studio, there is president trump making what seems like a recommitment to nato, having once said not so long ago that nature was obso

i'm katty kay, in washington. christian fraser's in london. us secretary of state, rex tillerson, and the homeland security secretary, john kelly, have begun a day of meetings with their mexican counterparts. their mission is to improve the badly damaged relations between the two nations. the trip comes after repeated public criticism of mexico by president trump and a controversial plan that could mean the deportation of hundreds of thousands of undocumented immigrants to mexico, regardless of where they came from. this is what the president said about the visit this morning. that is going to be a tough trip because we have to be treated fairly by mexico, that is going to be a tough trip. but he is over there with general kellie who has been unbelievable at the border, you see what is happening at the border, for the first time, we are getting gang members and drug lords out, really bad dudes out of this country. and ata bad dudes out of this country. and at a rate that nobody has ever seen before. and they are the bad ones, and it is a milit

katty kay has been looking through the archives for the most memorable moments. the centerpiece of america's political calendar, enshrined in the constitution. since george washington delivered the first in 1790, it has evolved from a simple statement on the health of the nation into a political call to arms, a presidential rallying cried. from 1801 it was delivered in writing from the white house to the capital. it was woodrow wilson who in 1913 took to the floor, transforming it into a blueprint for the president's legislative agenda. his successors have used it to showcase leadership, frame a new direction, or lift the spirits of the nation during a difficult time. >> the only thing we have to fear is fear itself. katty: there have been watershed moments. 18 23 president monroe used the address to articulate a new foreign-policy doctrine warning eddle in thet to mw western hemisphere. lyndon johnson proposed legislation that would be known as the war on poverty paving the way for welfare programs. >> this administration today, here and now, declares unconditio

laura: katty kay and christian fraser spoke with mohamed el-erian, the chief economic asking about is donald trump could bring back wealth to coal areas in west virginia. there isn't much he can do about the decline in demand, or the competition the coal sector is getting from natural gas and renewables. then he make a difference? yes, but it will not be transformational. katty: to think he will make a difference and other manufacturing industries as well? mr. el-erian: look at the coal industry. it employs 65,000 people. add transportation, power plants, maybe 150,000. every month this economy creates and destroys in the 5 billion job range. this is marginal, not leverage of all. -- not leverageable. it gives a signal. that is what he is looking for, a signal. he has made a lot of comments about jobs in heavy industries. will he be able to do that when the dollar is so strong? mr. el-erian: no. he will have to deal with the enabling environment. can't go industry by industry, it doesn't move the needle enough. thanks he talks about like infrastructure, tax reform, dere protectionism

jane: that was adam kinzinger talking to katty kay earlier about the u.s. side of things. but have they been saying in russia? i spoke with steve rosenberg in moscow. this is a situation that is roiling the white house. does moscow care about the scandal? steve: i think it does. the reaction was interesting. expressionsn with of anger, fear he, and disappointment. some prominent russian politicians took to social media to express their feelings about this, talk about michael flynn being a victim of anti-russian paranoia. they talked about russophobia, too. then things calmed down a little bit. the kremlin declined to comment on the resignation saying it was , an internal matter for america and the trump administration. i watched russian state television's main newscast this evening. they didn't mention the story at all. it is quite interesting. i think that is partly because it is quite embarrassing, the whole thing, for the kremlin. also, i think russia feels it does not need to make a lot out of this because at the end of the day, moscow is in counting -- is not counting

reporting from washington, i am katty kay. donald trump attacks the intelligence community and the press, but gets more bad news. his pick for labor secretary is pulling out. also mr. trump's comments on a two-state solution may have surprised the israeli prime minister and changed policy. the upstarts of silicon valley, uber and airbnb changed our , economy and made enemies along the way. katty: welcome to our viewers on public television in america and around the globe. donald trump began the day with a full throated twitter attack on the media and his intelligence agencies. the subject of his anger was a report that his team had frequent contacts with russian intelligence during the election campaign. the prime minister of israel was at the white house trying to make the middle east, not russia, the center of attention. our north america editor jon sopel has more. jon: these are not the best of times. not yet four weeks in his travel ban has been blocked, his national security adviser is fired, and questions about links wit

for more now on mr trump's brand of diplomacy, the bbc‘s katty kay spoke with kurt volker, former uspresident trump's administration meant by stating to iran that all options are on the table. i don't think we have any specifics as to what that means. i think that is good. it is good to have options out there. we are holding the door open. i think, out there. we are holding the door open. ithink, what out there. we are holding the door open. i think, what you see with iran, there are three things of concern. we have an agreement on the nuclear issue. we will still try to develop a nuclear weapon. then you have the missile testing development, the long—range missiles programme, which can become a delivery system later on. and regional behaviour, including support for terrorist groups. these are things we have a great deal of concern about with iran. having the option is to push back on those, may be imposing sanctions, notjust on the missile, but the terrorist issue as. but having the national security adviser come out as he did in the white house and president trump come out today, i

i'm katty kay in washington, christian fraser's in london.onsense is how president trump describes news reports that his campaign team were in regular contact with russian officials during the election campaign. he followed up with this tweet: "information is being illegally given to the failing @nytimes and @washingtonpost by the intelligence community — nsa and fbi? — just like russia." he was on a bit of a twitter storm this morning — at a press conference in the past couple of hours, mr trump had this to say. michael flynn, general flynn is a wonderful man. i think he's been treated very, very unfairly by the media. as i call it, the fake media, in many cases. i think it's really a sad thing that he was treated so badly. i think, in addition to that, from intelligence, papers are being leaked, things are being leaked. it's criminal action, criminal act, and it's been going on for a long time, before me. but now it's really going on. people are trying to cover up for a terrible loss that the democrats had under hillary clinton. i think it'
