This is the Global News Podcast from the BBC World Service. I'm Celia Hatton, and in the early hours of Wednesday, January the 21st, these are our main stories. President Trump heads to the World Economic Forum in Davos in Switzerland, saying he has a plan for Greenland that will make everyone happy. Snapchats parent company settles a lawsuit with a 19-year-old woman who said she'd become addicted to the social media site.
Also in this podcast... Nigeria's plan to revive oil drilling sparks outrage because of previous environmental damage.
Aloitamme presidentin Trumpista. HÀn on olettanut vuosia, kun hÀn on tullut aloitteeseen. HÀn on tutustunut White House-journalistiin ja antoi pitkÀn ja joskus miettivÀn puheenvuoron. HÀn puhui emigrasiaan, maailmanmarkkinoista ja Somalian valtioiden vaikutuksista. HÀn kertoi myös, miten hÀn voisi olla professiollinen baseball-pÀÀkÀyttÀjÀ.
When reporters finally got to ask him questions, he was quizzed about his desire to take over Greenland. And in response, he appeared to use softer language than in previous days. In answer to a question by the BBC's North America editor, Sarah Smith, he said he was going to work something out that would make NATO happy. If a consequence of your determination to take control of Greenland
After the news conference, Mr. Trump boarded a plane to fly to Davos in Switzerland to attend the World Economic Forum, where he's expected to face significant opposition to his plan for Greenland. Just before we recorded this podcast, Mr. Trump's plane had to turn around because of a minor electrical fault. He was due to change to another aircraft.
Kuten olen sanonut, kun hÀn pÀÀsee sinne, hÀn menee kysymyksiin Greenlandissa. Kysyin Sarah Smitha, mitÀ hÀn ajatteli presidentin Trumpin viimeisimmÀt kommentit siitÀ. HÀn kertoi meille, ettÀ tÀÀllÀ löytyy kompromissi, joka saattaa tehdÀ kaikkia hyvin ja joka saattaa toimia hyvin kaikille. Silloin se on erittÀin vaikeaa nÀhdÀ, mitÀ se voi olla. HÀn kertoi meiltÀ, ettÀ se ei ole.
HÀn oli kysynyt pressikonferenssissa, kuinka kauan hÀn on valmis menemÀÀn Greenlandiin, ja siihen hÀn sanoi, ettÀ sinÀ löydÀt. Joten on vaikea tietÀÀ, onko hÀn pÀÀssyt Davosissa, jossa hÀn sanoo, ettÀ hÀnellÀ on paljon keskusteluja maailmanliitoksen kanssa, jotka puhuvat erityisesti Greenlandin asiaa. Onko hÀn voinut yllÀttÀÀ meitÀ kaikille sopimukseen, joka olisi todennÀköistÀ, ettÀ kaikki olisivat onnellisia.
Se, mitÀ hÀn tarkoittaa, on se, ettÀ hÀn ei ole iloinen, jos hÀn ei ole tÀysin valmistunut Greenlandin. HÀn tarkoittaa, ettÀ hÀn on iloinen, jos hÀn on iloinen, jos hÀn on iloinen.
Let me be direct. We are in the midst of a rupture, not a transition.
Sarah, there's this sense that the US president is seeking to step outside the rules-based order. Is he really doing this, though, or is this just part of an overall strategy to make maximalist demands in order to get what he wants?
No, se on jotain, jota Donald Trump on tarjottanut maailmalle ja sitten asunut jotain hieman vÀhemmÀn. Ja tietenkin se on tradiittinen tapa tehdÀ real estate dealin New Yorkissa, kuten hÀn oli aiemmin asunut. Mutta tÀssÀ, tietenkin, arvot ovat paljon suurempia ja se on paljon vaikeampaa nÀhdÀ, missÀ kompromissi on, koska Donald Trump jo on mahdollisuus asua niin monen militÀrisen henkilön kanssa.
Just reflecting a little bit more on today's encounter with journalists,
He was also a little bit defensive, it seemed at times, when asked about the state of the US economy. Yes, he insists it's hotter than ever before, that the stock market has reached record highs. But he's still faced with questions about the cost of living.
and about why Americans don't feel better off since he took office, and that's something voters are likely to blame him for now, rather than his predecessor, Joe Biden. I mean, it was interesting to see him on a day which marks one of only four years he has in office, of course. It's been a dizzying 12 months, and we have three more years of this to go.
As you say, it's been a dizzying year for everyone covering the White House, the Trump administration. Are you getting a sense now, Sarah, of where this administration is going, though, and who the key players really are?
Luulen, ettÀ tiedÀmme, mitkÀ ovat tÀrkeimmÀt pelaajat, ja se on ensimmÀinen, tietenkin presidentti, hyvin, hyvin paljon ensimmÀinen. Se, mitÀ hÀn sanoo, ne pÀÀtökset, joita hÀn tekee, ovat ne, joita on tehty. HÀn on todella edustanut tÀmÀn hallituksen suhteen. HÀn tuntuu paljon paremmin tÀmÀn kerran, luulen, koska hÀn on ylittÀnyt itseÀnsÀ puolustajat ja puolustajat, jotka tekevÀt, mitÀ hÀn haluaa, jotka eivÀt haittaa hÀntÀ.
over his agenda, but rather are enthusiastically enacting the policies that he decides upon.
Our North America editor Sarah Smith. Snapchats parent company Snap has settled a social media addiction lawsuit just days before a landmark case against a number of tech giants is due to begin in Los Angeles. No settlement's been reached in the same case against Instagram's parent Meta, ByteDance's TikTok and Alphabet's YouTube. Our North America technology correspondent is Lily Jamali.
In the country's northeast. The authorities say the four-day truce was reached after an understanding had been agreed on the future of the whole Kurdish majority region. In earlier clashes, the Syrian army advanced and seized huge stretches of land.
Until now, the SDF has been responsible for securing prisons and camps where thousands of suspected Islamic State fighters and their families are being held. The SDF says its forces have withdrawn from one camp called Al-Hol. The Syrian army accuses the SDF of leaving the camp unguarded and says it's trying to secure the area. This report from our senior international correspondent Orla Guerin.
