He said. So there is definitely something on the table there that they can talk about. And inevitably the Iran war will come up, because this is going to overshadow the whole of this trip. It's causing problems for both America and China, for both Trump and Xi. Donald Trump could do with President Xi's help in trying to persuade Iran to come to the table and do a deal. He said as he was leaving America he didn't need help with Iran, but he probably does.

jätti tämän keskustelun kuusi viikolla Iranin vuodesta takaisin, että nyt hän olisi voinut mennä Beijingiin näyttämällä victorina. Hän on voinut vahvistaa Iranin ja antaa sille nukleaarit, mutta se ei ole aivan se tilanne, jossa hän on ollut. Sen sijaan Kiina on kärsinyt hieman suurta öljyä ja se, että moni öljy- ja kaasutekot Iranista, jotka menevät Kiinalle, on vahvistettu. Se käsittelee kaiken.

It does make it significantly more difficult for Donald Trump, I think, to get what he wants, because he's the one who looks as though he's been unable to finish this conflict in Iran. Sarah Smith. Apart from discussions on trade, Iran and Taiwan, one of the other issues President Trump is expected to discuss with the Chinese leader Xi Jinping is the case of the imprisoned Hong Kong media mogul Jimmy Lai.

Danny Vincent. Now to central London, where ceremonies have been taking place for the formal opening of a new session of Britain's parliament. King Charles traveled by horse-drawn carriage from Buckingham Palace to the Houses of Parliament to lay out the government's agenda for the coming year.

All this took place at a critical period in UK politics. The speech was written by the government of the Prime Minister, Keir Starmer. He was watching on as his future hangs in the balance. It was only on Tuesday, a day ago, that many thought Mr. Starmer would be forced to stand down by members of his own ruling Labour Party. And there are still questions about how long he'll remain in charge. Our political correspondent is Rob Watson.

Kuten sanoit, Rob, kerro meille enemmän tästä vanhemmasta ministeriä, joka voisi saada vaikutuksen. Miksi kaikki tämä on tullut kiinni Kirstarmerista nyt?

This is the Global News Podcast. There was a time when having a Trump Tower in your city was something that many would see as a sign of wealth and prosperity. And developers were planning to bring one of those branded buildings to Australia. At 91 stories high, it would have been the country's tallest tower.

But now plans for the one billion dollar project in Queensland have been scrapped. Developer David Young blamed what he called the toxic Trump brand and the Iran war for the building's demise. Charmaine Allison is a journalist with Australia's ABC News. She's been covering the story from the Gold Coast and she spoke to me from there.

Tämän vuoden loppupuolella Eric Trump, US-presidentin toisen lapsen Donald Trump, antoi sosiaalisen mediaan suunnitelmia 1,5 miljoonan dollarin Trump-taurun Surfers Paradisein Gold Coastissa Australiassa. Tämä 91-luvun 6-stari hotellipalvelu oli Australiassa ensimmäinen Trump-kirjoitettu asunto. Se oli pitkän taurun suurimmassa paikassa, joten se oli iso uusi asunto tähän alueeseen.

Australian Developers Altus Property Group confirmed they'd be spearheading the luxury resort build. But despite lots of community controversy and media coverage around this, a development application for this project was never actually submitted to the local council. And now just three months after this deal was made, it's been scrapped. Why has it been abandoned?

Well, it depends on who you ask. Altus Property Group founder David Young, who the ABC revealed has twice declared bankruptcy, said the Trump organization had pulled out of the deal. He said in a statement that the Trump brand was increasingly toxic in Australia, citing the Iran war as one example of this. He added that some time ago his company had decided it was time to part

company from the Trump brand. However, the Trump organization has hit back today. They've offered quite a different perspective. A spokesperson said that they'd been excited to bring the project to the Gold Coast, but that after months of negotiations and empty promises, Altus had been unable to meet the most basic financial obligations. So what's been the reaction in the community to the project, but also to its cancellation?

It really has divided the city. There were numerous petitions against the Trump Tower, which attracted more than 120,000 signatures. There was a small protest at the local council chambers earlier this month against the project, even though a formal development application hadn't even been issued.

To South Africa, where the country's top police chief is appearing in court, charged with violating public finance law. General Fani Masamola is accused of wrongdoing in connection with a controversial $21 million health contract. He's not the first South African police chief to face a criminal investigation while in office. Pumza Falani has been following the case.

This is actually one of the most serious cases happening in South Africa at the moment, and it's playing out in the country's courts with the citizens able to follow via live streaming. At the heart of it are allegations that General Fani Masumula, who is the country's most senior officer, along with 11 other police officers, were involved in the awarding of a

a tender that was supposed to provide wellness services within the country's police force. It's alleged that despite numerous indications that the businessman who had put in the bid for this tender did not have the capacity to provide it and also had been flagged under another incidence for not completing work
