it seems that the uk foreign minister, phillip hammond intelligence that perhaps the egyptian and russian counterparts have access to. what does he know that they don't? >> reporter: well, we don't know that either. whether or not it will be shared later on in that meeting between david cameron and president sisi will be seen, but there is a significant possibility that isiz was beyond this downing of the plane. it seems to confirm the claim that came from islamic group in iraq. he has been looking not just at the claim but also lots of other bits of information. that could be referring to this specific incident. there are uk eave invitation experts on the grounds at sharm el-sheikh. they're putting in measures that everything going onto those planes are screened. surety measures have been quite lack, it is feared. all british flights from or to charr el shake is us spended. he has stressed that the security rating for sharm el-sheikh itself has not changed. they are safe in hotels and their resorts. at the same time we're hearing that the netherlands have suspended their flights too. som

of course, rhetoric over the weekend from the foreign secretary, phillip hammond, has increased.kely the rhetoric, the strength of that rhetoric being possibly against the eu is likely to increase today from david cameron. he's meant to be saying that brittain is likely to be successful regardless of whether it's in the eu or not. he'll frame the question of saying where will brittain will be most successful which clearly he still maintains will be within europe. brittain can be successful either way. it's crucial for him to maintain that threat that if he doesn't get the response he wants to get from the eu in the negotiation, he's willing to leave. we're going to hear from him in a couple of minutes on all of brittain's business. top of that will be the european union's decision. >> will, good to see you once again. >>> let's talk about what's happening in southeast asia and myanmar's ruling party has conceded defeat in the country's first free democratic vote in 25 years. the national league for democracy led by an saw su chi needs to win 2/3 north to form a party vote. the nl

even beyond that, the british foreign secretary phillip hammond said yesterday, the reason we know this points in the direction of terrorism and egyptians don't is we're in possession of intelligence the egyptians haven't got. that signals to me, look, there's probably some communication that's been intercepted and vetted. it's not really surprising it's the u.s. and uk that are coming out front on this. they're part of the so-called "five eyes," collection of countries that share intelligence and signals intelligence in particular. look it could well be the case that sinai, they got lucky. they planned an operation, but whatever person on the inside they had was able to kind clear a path for them. this happened. and it may have even taken members of that organization by surprise. it certainly seems to have taken core or central isis by surprise, because you'll notice their official media organs had been very muted since saturday. so the question is was this something, assuming, again, this is born out to be terrorism, was this something plotted in rakka by the intelligence council or w

but right now the foreign secretary phillip hammond had said our response is in two parts.itizens. there are right now some 20,000 british citizens in sharm el sheikh trying to get out. they have sent extra security and they have extra egyptian security to make sure that the planes they will put on for those british citizens to get back home and totally secured and absolutely safe. and once those citizens are out of sharm el sheikh they will reassess pending the ongoing investigation. so there are two parts of the british act of this. most importantly the notion of blowback for russia's involvement in syria is a hot possibility. and a live possibility. and that's really important to digest and understand. and the notion that isis and its sinai affiliate is active and potentially capable of doing this kind of thing in the sigh nooi and in sharm el sheikh which is a global tourist hot spot. and i can't remember a time since lockerby that a bomb on a civilian airliner, if this turns out to be the full evidence and the case has brought down a civilian airliner like this. >> you

joining us now is the british foreign secretary phillip h hammond, one of the first to link that to terrorism. thank you very much for joining us. >> pleasure. >> are you convinced this was a bomb? >> we think it was more likely than not an explosive device on the aircraft. obviously we won't know absolutely for certain until the final analysis of the wreckage has taken place. that could take some time. but in the meantime we acted on a precautionary basis using all the evidence available to us. and we suspended all british flights to sharm el sheikh last wednesday. >> but not to cairo. >> not to cairo. this is specific to sharm el sheikh airport. if there was a bomb on that plane, then that represents a failure of security at sharm el sheikh. >> specifically because the russians suspended all air traffic not only to sharm el sheikh but cairo as well. >> yeah. well, we took the decision that it's sharm el sheikh we need to focus on. it's sharm el sheikh where we have a very significant tourist traffic from the uk. so that was the principle focus of our concern. >> if it was a bomb, do you bel
