that said, the business community in america is split on how it views china. in the past, it used to be after the collapse of the soviet union and tinman square it was the main thing that kept the relationship on an even keel. now, back to the question if you are a high technology manufacturer and you want to do business in china. the chinese company that obligates you to give them your family jewels, if you will, in exchange for access to china's market. it means you will have a chinese competitor making your same product and continuing with you at a lower price. it is a false bargain. that continual issue is something that is causing issues in the u.s. business community. in the past the business community was the bull work of keeping u.s.-china relations on an even keel and now you see more disenchantment with china. now we are a u.s. business community that is trough on the chinese. there is no shortage of chinese firms, state run and private, who want to by firms in america that have advanced technology that they will perhaps use in america for a while but others want to brin

almost all of us in america get our internet access via one main provider-- these are the telecom and cable giants like verizon, comcast, charter, time warner-- they provide the infrastructure that delivers the bounty of the web to our homes and phones: sites and apps like google, netflix, facebook, instagram, you name it. the telecoms build the highway, the others guys are like the cars traveling that highway. the idea of net neutrality is that the telecoms have to treat that highway as an open road-- they can't pick and choose which websites or services get to you faster or slower. the fear is that if they do have that power, they'll be tempted to favor their content, their sites, their own vides over a competitors. but the telecoms argue that's not fair, they should be able to control that flow, and be able to charge more for faster access. in 2014, the federal communications commission under obama wanted to lock in these net neutrality rules, but it faced intense pushback by the industry. the fight even spilled into pop culture, with this from hbo's john oliver: >> if we let cable

and that was minimal compared to us involvement in the middle east which is geographically comparable to south america russia. it doesn't justify russian support for syrian dictator any more than a justified us support for regimes in central america. the fact is, these countries are guided by geopolitical ideas that they don't like the other big power influencing parts of the world near to them in their backyard and they are willing to support some pretty god-awful regimes in order to try to maintain that level. >> as far as the united states is concerned, the options seem to be limited. president trump ordered that missile strike which did have an effect around the world. it got people's attention whether it was not effective marriage early as a whole different matter but politically and had some influence. you can continue that. maybe he could push for a no- fly zone which is what hillary clinton wanted but obama seemed adverse to doing that. i'm trying to get a specifically other than working the diplomatic side with russia and other stakeholders there, what are the options on the table?>> unfortun

council, the american ambassador to the un, nikki haley, said it is in america's vital national security interest to prevent the usef chemical weapons. our military destroyed the airfield from which this week's chemical strike took place. we were fullyjustified in doing so. the moral stain of the assad regime could no longer go unanswered. his crimes against humanity could no longer be met with empty words. it was time to say "enough" but not only say it, it was time to act. bashar al—assad must never use chemical weapons again. ever. the syrian government denounced the attack as reckless and irresponsible but america has had support from other countries. it was after dark on the east coast of america and before the sun had risen in the middle east when the commander in chief gave the order. from two us warships, a volley of cruise missiles were fired at a military air base, that has been used, say the americans to launch the chemical weapons attack on idlib. it is in the vital security interest of the united states to prevent and to deter the spread and use of deadly chemical weapons. there can be no dispute that

us secretary of state in moscow today. he flew in for talks on syria — and the russian promptly lambasted america for indulging in iraq stylee us wants moscow to drop its support for president assad. but the west has almost no leverage. on monday in italy, the british foreign secretary had told reporters this was a window of opportunity. it's time, he said, for putin to face the truth. 24—hours on his plan is in tatters. germany and italy are opposed to further sanctions. the only agreement said the secretary of state is that somehow assad has to be removed. it is clear to all of us that the reign of the assad family is coming to an end but the question of how that ends and the transition itself could be very important in our view to thejury could be very important in our view to the jury ability and the stability of a unified syria —— the durability. and the outcome going forward. so that is why we are not presupposing how that occurs. but i think it is clear that we see no further role for the assad regime longer term, given that they have effectively given up their legitimacy with these type of attacks. today president p

in the bbc newsroom and afghanistan. let us just reiterate what is being said. this is america'somb and it has just been used for the first time in a conflict. you can see the province where it was dropped on the afghanistan. also, this picture is the one that the us defence department has supplied to illustrate what the weapon is like. let us bring in a bbc correspondent. thank you for being with us. lots of people will be watching and wondering why have the americans decided to use the snow? there is two reasons. one is the level of frustration with the fact that this is a conflict that has bogged down in america for 15 years. there are still 9000 american forces bear, a lot of nato forces there as well. they are ostensibly there to help train afghan local forces, but they are suffering heavy losses and are unable to hold territory that they take from the taliban and other insurgents. the reason that this bomb was used in this particular place is because this is where so—called islamic state, or an offshoot of islamic state, is said to be entrenched, in this vast complex of cav

used in the attack. russia has strongly condemned the attack which happened at 20 to two this morning. president trump said it was in america's bashar al—assad launched a horrible chemical weapons attack on innocent civilians. using a deadly nerve agent assad stops short the lives of helpless men, women, and children. it was a slow and brutal death for so many. even beautiful babies were cruelly murdered in this very barbaric attack. no child of god should ever suffer such horror. tonight i ordered a targeted military strike on the airfield in syria from where the chemical attack was launched. it is in this vital, national security interest of the united states to prevent and deter the spread and use of deadly, chemical weapons. there can be no dispute that syria used banned chemical weapons, violated its obligations under the chemical weapons convention, and ignored the urging of the un security council. years of previous attempts at changing assad's behaviour have all failed and failed very dramatically. asa failed and failed very dramatically. as a result, the refugee crisis continues to deepen and the region continues to

laura hughes, take us to the coverage of this bomb dropped in afghanistan? so, this is the largest non—nuclear bomb that americaial campaign, donald trump spoke about how he was going to protect america's‘s interests, and not really intervene around the world. but this is the second incident in two weeks showing that maybe that is not the case. this maybe is a warning to north korea, iran, syria, that america is taking things really seriously now. and they are prepared, donald trump is prepared, to go further than george bush, he never used these weapons, and also president 0bama. may be questions for donald trump supporters, who voted for him in the hope that america might take a step back from dealing in these kind of issues.“ that how you see it? absolutely, it is the largest bomb that has been dropped since blagger hour. apparently it has caused a lot of consternation within the warring factions in the white house. steve bannon, his notoriously hawkish adviser, was apparently advising against attacking syria last week. i'm not sure he will be that happy about this, either. because the campaign was all about

in! i'm trevor noah! my guest tonight is democratic congressman adam schiff, everybody! ( cheers and applause ) joining us on the show, he's investigating russian interference in america'sion. so we're going to talk to him about that. but let's begin tonight with turkey. you remember how president erdogan was asking people to vote democratically to make him a dictator? ( laughter ) i know, it's weird. but whatever. they held the vote sunday and the results are in. >> president erdogan declared victory yesterday in a referendum that gives him sweep nog powers. the margin of victim which was slim, 51 to 49%. >> the main opposition party criticized the electoral board for allowing irregular ballot papers to be counted calling for the result to be nullified. >> hundreds haves taken to turkey to protest the results but erdogan remained defiant telling a crowd at the ankara airport we nether see hear or knowledge the political reports you prepare, we'll continue on our path, talk to the hand. ( laughter ) >> trevor: talk to the hand? well, the people just voted to make you a ruthless dictator and you go with sassy neighbor from a '90s sitcom? erdogan wants to be a dictator bu

order, i'm directing every single agency in our government to strictly uphold our buy american laws, to minimize the use of waivers and to maximize made in americant in all federal projects. it's time. [applause] and for the first time ever, we are going to crack down on foreign bidders that used dump steel to take contractors by you. they've taken it away and doing it a long time. not going to happen anymore. [applause] we're finally standing up for our workers and our companies. in short, this order declared that american projects should be made with american goods. no longer are we going to allow foreign countries to cheat our producers and our workers out of federal contracts. everyone in my administration will be expected to enforce every last buy american provision on behalf of the american worker and we are going to investigate every single trade deal that undermines these provisions. secondly, we're going to enforce the hire american rules that are designed to protect jobs and wages of workers in the united states. we believe jobs must be offered to american workers first. does that make sense? right now widespread abuse in our immigrati

in the white house, relationships with america would improve. but so far, there's been no sign of that. today, russia said it was suspending a deal designed to prevent usrom accidentally clashing in the skies over syria. as for political dialogue, that will continue. america's secretary of state rex tillerson is due in moscow next week. up until the us missile strikes in syria, he could be in for some difficult conversations —— after the missile strikes. steve rosenberg, bbc news, moscow. here, the prime minister has given her full support to the attack. in a moment, we'll speak to our political correspondent, eleanor garnier, in downing street. but first we can talk to our washington correspondent, jane o brien. jane, is it fair to say that the administration is still very much staying at this stage that this is a one—off? staying at this stage that this is a one-off? yes, it is. and there is no signs of any further military action in syria against the assad regime. but don't forget that there or american forces on the ground in syria are already, supporting the push to retake raqqa from islamic state. that has always been the focus of the trump admin

america's commander in wounded warriors from past conflicts. this has been a big stress test of his america first approach, a philosophy predicated on a narrow view of us in which exercising moral and humanitarian leadership was not considered central. but the chemical attack has clearly altered that thinking. as he indicated tonight, aboard air force one. what assad did is terrible. i think what happened in syria is one of the truly egregious crimes and it shouldn't have happened. and it shouldn't be allowed to happen. the diplomatic battle ground in this conflict has long been the united nations security council. it's seen a struggle primarily between the united states and russia and they've clashed again over the wording of the draft resolution responding to the attack. the british and the french drafted this resolution and then the americans inserted much stronger demands. they are insisting that the syrian military hand over all the flight logs for the day of the attack and also give international investigators access to its air bases. the russians say that's unacceptable. the americans are refusing to back down. the syrian government continues to
