and speak to mike hanna so mike how significant is this meeting with shares are they. well it is significant in that japanese prime minister has often expressed concerns about any security arrangements that may arise out of this political process now he and president trump have been in constant contact in fact they hold a telephone conversation in the course of today now it is propose that a prime minister comes to d.c. on his way to an economic summit in quebec however he could also meet with president trump on the sidelines of that summit but the key issue here is he will be seeking assurances that japan's national security will not be put at risk by any moves or any decisions that president trump might make and some suspect to that prime minister wants to get his voice in president trumps to be the last one to speak to him before he has that meeting with kim jung own should take place and mike we're now looking at a try lateral meeting with south korea's leader when j.n. getting involved in the summit and potentially having a seat at the table. well president moon i

and abyei have agreed that they want the pavin and dismantlement of pyongyang's nuclear program mike hanna has more from washington d.c. . now it is proposed a prime minister comes to d.c. on his way to an economic summit in quebec however he could also meet with president trump on the sidelines of that summit but the key issue here is he will be seeking assurances that japan's national security will not be put at risk by any moves or any decisions that president trump might make and some suspect to that prime minister wants to get his voice in president trump's ear to be the last one to speak to him before he has a meeting with kim jung own should it take place twelve soldiers from saudi arabia have been killed in yemen this brings the total number of saudi casualties to over a thousand this is according to its media the saudi dead coalition forces are now approaching the rebel held city of data and there are now twenty kilometers away the coalition is trying to retake the city from who the rebels but the u.n. is warning that any operation to seize who data would put at risk humanitarian

and south korea following this latest development mike hanna will be joining us from washington d.c. in just a few moments but first we'll cross over to andrew thomas who will give us an update from seoul and tell us what more we're learning about the surprise meeting. well let's talk about what we do know and what we don't know first of all we know that this summit took place unexpected a big surprise no one in south korea was anticipating it at least not outside the presidential palace anyway and that in itself is very significant in the context of these all off maybe still on summits talks between donald trump i'm kim jong un we know as well that the meeting took place in punk right on the border between north and south korea was actually held the just on the north side that's again very significant in what they call their unification house the north koreans tom gill got his the name of the building that talks were held in this is the first time that a south korean leader has crossed over into the north for some stansell talks in eleven years of course on april twenty seventh in t

without preparation is something that can deal with the north korean leader thank you very much mike hanna with the latest from washington. it was the news hour live from london much more still ahead and the immigration anti european and and he muslim germany's far right goes on the march in berlin. we go undercover to expose the criminal gangs who pull the strings in the world of cricket and there's a big upset on day one of the french open tennis on the details of protests and sport. three palestinians have been killed by israeli shelling in gaza it happened east of the city of ruffa in the southern gaza strip israel's military says the man and members of the group islamic jihad or than one hundred have been killed by israeli fire in the gaza strip since mass protests broke out in march and other developments two boats will leave gaza this week with palestinians who need urgent hospital care or trying to break a blockade imposed by israel which has prevented medical supplies from getting into the territory and patients from leaving all spittles have been struggling to treat the injured a

getting the other two leaders together and he would like a seat at the table to get more now from mike hanna who is live for us in washington d.c. so like how significant is this meeting between chairs are they and donald trump. well it is significant indeed the japanese leader has been insistent that japan has its own concerns about talking to north korea in particular has massive security concerns and wants to make absolutely certain that president trump is fully aware of these concerns that japanese holds now there has been constant contact between a stairway and president trumping fact there was another conversation in the course of the day the plan now it would appear is for the japanese leader to either come through washington on his way to an economic summit in could work or to actually have a meeting with president trump on the sidelines of that summit now what also appears to be the case is that she is intent on getting the ear of president trump making his concerns absolutely clear before president trump goes ahead with it some but should it indeed go ahead on june the twelfth and

getting the other two leaders together and he would like a seat at the table and our correspondent mike hanna is life as in washington d.c. so how do you see the presence of the south korean president changing the dynamic of the sun it mike. well the advantage is that it would appear that president moon has in a short space of time struck up a very strong relationship with the north korean leader they met twice in recent days that last secret meeting on saturday evening so certainly from that point of view it may be beneficial for the talks to have president moon at the table but the quantity question to be answered is whether president trump would accept the president trump has made very clear his appreciation for president moon's role in getting this summit back together again following president trump's cancellation but president trump has made quite clear too that he is driving this process and to put it bluntly would he be willing to share the spotlight with the north the south korean leader well that's a question we'll see decided in the days ahead but certainly those planning events ar

let's get more now from mike hanna who is live for us in washington like thursday a lot going on behind the scenes just how advanced are these preparations for the summit now. well there is a advance team on its way to south korea to begin to prepare for the summit should it take place to singapore of course however is a much more significant meeting that is going on at present and the state department has confirmed that a team of u.s. negotiators has crossed into the demilitarized zone for talks with their north korean counterparts now it's very significant looking at the makeup of these teams the u.s. team is headed by song king he is a former. to south korea and he was importantly part of the six nation talks that took place over a period of years it fell apart in two thousand and nine but on the other side on the north korean side their chief negotiator is the deputy foreign minister chose someone and she of course was also part of those six nation talks so you've got to negotiators talking to each other who know each other very well who know the issues very intimately haven't been

willing to go into negotiations probably without proper preparation all right thank you very much mike hanna bringing us all the latest from washington two boats will leave gaza this week with palestinians who need urgent hospital care they will try to break a blockade imposed by israel which has prevented medical supplies from getting into the territory and patients from leaving hospitals have been struggling to treat thousands of palestinians have been wounded by israeli bullets cheering recent protests but it's myth or ports. gaza is blockaded by israel on all sides sea included but this week two boats loaded with patients who need hospital treatment and students with university places will try to breach israel's sea blockade which begins sixteen kilometers out in the mediterranean that passengers have a strong determination to break this siege whatever the circumstances whatever the challenges whatever the obstacles that would have been that would be imposed by the israeli side gaza's hospitals are full of patients who need urgent medical treatment there are those injured in two months o

summit so a key issue these talks taking place today possibly monday and tuesday as well thank you mike hanna in washington. three palestinians have been killed by israeli shelling in gaza as happened east of the city of rough in the southern gaza strip israel's military says the men were armed members of the group islamic jihad more than one hundred people have been killed by israeli fire in the gaza strip since mass protests broke out in march. well two boats will leave gaza this week with palestinians who need hospital care now trying to break a blockade imposed by israel which has prevented medical supplies from getting into the territory and patients from leaving all spittles have been struggling to treat the thousands of palestinians wounded by israeli but it's bunnet smith reports. gaza is blockaded by israel on all sides sea included but this week two boats loaded with patients who need hospital treatment and students with university places will try to breach israel's sea blockade which begins sixteen kilometers out in the mediterranean that passengers have a strong determination to b

the new york grand jury's decision follows weinstein's arrest and court appearance last friday mike hanna has more on that. well the new york district attorney insists that the grand jury indictment takes the case against harvey weinstein to a new level what will happen next is that he will be arraigned before a judge he will be able to plead guilty or not guilty his lawyer maintains that weinstein will definitely be declaring himself not guilty and his lawyer says too that he will continue to fight against these charges even attempting to question the charges before weinstein goes to court the charges that the grand jury has brought are similar to those that the police brought last friday when weinstein surrendered himself to police before being placed on one million dollars bail and they pertain to two separate rape charges one is rape with compulsion which carries a sentence of up to twenty five years the other second life slightly more minor a rape charge has also be brought along with a criminal intent to act so certainly three charges very very serious indeed the next step is for we

great economic and financial nation one day can join own agrees with me on this that will happen mike hanna has more from washington d.c. . the state department has confirmed that a u.s. negotiating team has traveled to the north korean side of the demilitarized zone for negotiations hitting the team is some king now he's a former ambassador to south korea and he was part of the delegations that negotiated during the so-called six party talks between two thousand and three of tall they broke down in two thousand and nine now interestingly enough on the north korean side their chief negotiator is chose. she's a deputy foreign minister and was part of the north korean delegation during those six nation talks so certainly the go see it is from both sides know each other well aware of the history of the ongoing crisis in north korea now what they are doing we understand is to set an agenda for the talks should they take place on june the twelfth without a clear agenda discussed over the next three days there's likely to be no summit. now robert kelley is professor of international relations at

getting the other two leaders together and he'd like a seat at the table well our correspondent mike hanna is life for us in washington d.c. so it sounds like the south korean president may well join this u.s. summit mike how would that change the dynamic of it. well the one thing is. apparent that president moon has an increasingly warm relationship with the north korean leader they've held those two meetings the second one in secret in recent weeks and certainly there is a bonding that would appear between the two leaders the question though is whether president trump himself would be prepared to share the spotlight if i could put it that way certainly what president moon appears to be indicating is that he would not take part in the meeting from the beginning he would join it subsequently which may be acceptable to president trump who has made very clear that he wants to drive this process still being very admiring of president moon's contribution to getting this process underway also very importantly president moon played a major role in healing relations it would seem following presid

more than seventy women accuse him of sexual misconduct with some allegations dating back decades mike hanna has more from washington d.c. well the new york district attorney insists that the grand jury indictment takes the case against harvey weinstein to a new level what will happen next is that he will be arraigned before a judge he will be able to plead guilty or not guilty his lawyer maintains that weinstein will definitely be declaring himself not guilty and his lawyer says too that he will continue to fight against these charges even attempting to question the charges before weinstein goes to court the charges that the grand jury has brought are similar to those that the police brought last friday when weinstein surrendered himself to police before being placed on one million dollars bail and they pertain to two separate rape charges one is rape with compulsion which carries a sentence of up to twenty five years the other second life slightly more minor a rape charge has also been brought along with a criminal intent act so certainly three charges very very serious indeed the next ste

seventy women with some allegations dating back decades he's denied having consensual sex well mike hanna joins me now live from washington d.c. following events foresaw the charges were expected mike but what happens next in terms of a timeline. yes indeed they were expected but the new york district attorney says that the grand jury indictment is an important part of the process to finally bring harvey weinstein to trial now weinstein's lawyer dismisses the indictment saying that there's nothing new in what the grand jury has found and that he and his client will continue to fight the indictment insisting that his client will plead not guilty when he has his opportunity to appear before a court but certainly the grand jury indictment very important as far as the new york destry tourney's concerned essential of the charges were the same as those brought by the police on friday including two separate charges of rape one of which carries a sentence of up to twenty five years as well as an act of criminal sexuality so the next stage what we're looking at is a formal arraignment of harvey we

more than seventy women and some allegations state back decades he's denied having consensual sex mike hanna has more for us now from washington d.c. and joins me now i mean the charges were expected but what happens next. yes they were inspected indeed however the new york district attorney is insists that this moves forward the process leading to criminal. legislation adventurously being brought against harvey weinstein but weinstein's lawyer insists that no this is not the case he says that the grand jury. hearing didn't provide any new detail essentially what the grand jury has done is indicted weinstein on exactly the same charges that the police brought against him last friday but what the studies mean is that it may make the job of the prosecutor a little bit easier what happens next well weinstein will appear before a judge he will be arraigned he will have the opportunity to declare his his guilty or not guilty is lawyer makes very clear that weinstein will be pleading not guilty to these charges and his lawyer also says that he will continue to fight against these charges being bro
