stoughton generally terrorists are very keen to try and get whole nuclear materials of passion their own seeming devices so in is one should look at all these groups and their recognition by them and then by our peace committee is is excellent in the money that there will get more problems of further us and by having a hundred twenty countries who claim they will sign a treaty is excellent that means it is less likely the groups like the so-called islamic state will be a whole new material however and won't doesn't want to be too cynical but it is very much the russians and the americans who decide the future capability and use your koran says actually those two need to the nations have been of peace since the second world war very much are the nuclear threats on the horizon but it is the threat from states like north korea and possibly iran as well that is most frightening and that is where the leaders cruise in and from really need to step

forward to make sure the threat of nuclear war is the absolute minimum but i don't want to underwrite or undermine what i can be achieved and i certainly support them and we wish them every success in the future they are part of the police really the americans and russians who can actually maintain the john strides that we need in this area well said hi mr britain gordon joining us to talk through the nobel prize winner thank you as i said i can is not necessarily a great many of us had heard of until today it's actually been around for ten years it was formed in australia and is currently headquartered in geneva i kind of something of our brother organization the partners with four hundred sixty eight different organizations in one hundred one countries and then twenty twelve was praised by the then un secretary-general ban ki moon for quite working with such commitment and creativity in pursuit of our shared goal that is of a nuclear weapon free world. sorry dude i can suddenly become

a big trend exertional topic today on all the time once i saw a lot of it did within actually the same hour soon after i can started trending worldwide the official twitter feed for the nobel prize was live tweeting before and during the announcement that a quote by a bitch is fed she's the executive director of i can we saw earlier in which she says the cold war was over a long time ago we can no longer accept these weapons now let me show you this do you recognize it because this is a peace sign but here's a little interesting fact for you the lines in the symbol were made for the nineteen fifty eight british campaign for nuclear disarmament and they represents that they represent the letters n. andy bach take a closer look because it's not the english letters and indeed that you and i know in fact i'll just show you here these lines are part of the signaling system with which historically has been used to send messages over long distances and this is the d. just there that's the line in the middle of the peace sign and the end there as

well now it took awhile for i cancer respond to their followers on social media and also to announce that they were pleased but it did eventually posted this here if you just saw it he said we did it. and they've listed all the different types of weapons that have been in bands and one of them includes landmines that was banned in one thousand nine hundred ninety seven not twenty years ago from today that i can also released a statement on facebook includes this paragraph just hit and it's taking this opportunity to other countries to follow their lead at a time of alarming crisis they said so quite timely of course with the situation us north korea and so on but here's a little video they released not long ago on why it's important food leaders as well as people like you and me to join their campaign. july seventh twenty seventeen the united nations adopted a treaty that bans nuclear weapons this treaty is more than income paper

it paves the way for eliminate nuclear weapons for the good. but only when the tooling and implemented and they win if they hear your voice let everyone know how critical this treaty is to preventing the devastating humanitarian consequences one moment shaped the course of history it's your turn to reshape it now for people congratulate see i can for this when some like mary where i'm from human rights watch have been keen to remind people that the heart of the hearts of i can see the victims of hiroshima and they've been campaigning tirelessly for years to ban these actions and this was a price that she posted earlier showing some of the pictures of those victims that have been campaigning for a very long time now these are some of our team came across online today but

perhaps you also have something to say you can live comment throughout the show on facebook it to me and include the hash tag a.j. news grid plenty of nobel content online accounts they were dot com the comprehensive list of winners since ninety one has been updated and it's interesting to see in the past ten years or so the idea of awarding this peace prize to a group rather than an individual has become more common last years whenever it was an individual it was the colombian president juan manuel santos and i was there actually presented a special discussion with him in front of a live audience they say fully about when james buys hosted that one it was really interesting have a look up nobel peace prize it out zero dot com you'll find that and plenty more. now as i mentioned the iran nuclear deal is so that look more now is where u.s. president donald trump stands on that there are reports in the u.s. he plans to withdraw support for the agreement as early as next week trump gave a bit of a hint on thursday as to what's to come saying iran wasn't living up to the spirit of the agreement russia which is also a signatory to the deal says it hopes the u.s.

will make a balanced decision on whether to remain engaged quick reminder here of the deal signed two years ago by the us russia china france the u.k. and germany along with iran of calls it aim to stop iran from producing materials that could be used for nuclear weapons for which in turn economic penalties were lifted including american sanctions and a european or oil embargo on iran as well but for the u.s. is part the deal needs to be certified by the u.s. president every ninety days the next deadline october fifteenth and if president doesn't renew it then it goes to congress which has to decide if sanctions should be reinstated or not it's his time i came in in washington d.c. following this story it seems like another long taze from president trump has been talking about this for a long time and now all the talk becomes a little more call great is there any suggestion that the deal will survive or at least the u.s. is part of the deal will survive. well as you as you noted he

talked about the deal or iran having violated the spirit of the deal twice already the united states under his administration has said that certifies that they that iran is complaining is complying rather with the terms of the deal but the u.s. administration says they're not satisfied with that they want iran to also to comply with what they consider adequate restraints on ballistic missile tests on their support of proxy groups like hezbollah or human rights issues in within iran itself so the administration is really trying to stay and frame as much wider stage work for this and the question here now is whether congress will actually rise to the occasion or just simply gently decline to go along with sanctions this was a hard fought battle by barack obama who significantly did not submit the agreement

to the approval of congress as a formal treaty and so the administration of donald trump which is of course reflexive lee almost opposed or tried to undone many of obama's initiatives say that this too is unacceptable and has to be reversed what would that actually mean in practical terms though don't forget that the u.s. back in july actually did and trump signed legislation which extended sanctions against iran regarding again referring to addressing the the other issues that beyond the actual nuclear deal and so the question here is what would what would that practically mean one one indication is that it would have economic consequences not only for iran but for the u.s. itself boeing which is the biggest prefer. former the best performer on the u.s.

stock exchange the s. and p. five hundred in the last year signed a twenty billion dollars deal with to supply iran with one hundred airliners now will that deal come apart will it be reversed and what kind of influence will the u.s. economic sector be having on congress all those are questions that will not be will not be fixed in the next couple of days and from may expand on his thinking in his speech that tentatively set for early next week ok thank you for that update tom ackerman in washington d.c. here is early yet and i who is a policy fellow for the middle east north africa program at the european council on foreign relations joining us from istanbul to talk about this one the thing i always think about early is that this was a deal signed by six nations plus iran just because the u.s. pulls out a looks like it will pull that that surely doesn't mean the end of the deal entirely well this is certainly

a point that u.s. allies in europe have been making consistently both with the trumpet ministration and the u.s. congress this is a multilateral deal and one party cannot break it by walking away alone and neither can one party unilaterally even if we negotiate the deal so this is yet another. action by the trumpet ministration that is really diluting the standing of the u.s. within the international community and what does it do for iran i mean if the idea of sanctions or if the idea of u.s. sanctions comes back what i know we're crystal ball gazing about what type of things do you think would be expect to see in the form of sanctions. well first of all it's important for everyone to remember that this process of the certification if it indeed does happen next week doesn't quickly trigger anything

in practice we'll have a two month review period for congress that is a purely us domestic issue it doesn't impact the other countries that are parties to the deal or other companies who are engaging business with iran now this will create a cooling off period essentially where everyone who's part of the deal will try and persuade congress to not take measures that violate the deal from the u.s. position now in this period of time iran is quite likely to continue it here into the deal so long as it's that sanctions don't snap back during a period now if sanctions do return there's a whole procedure under the deal for dispute resolution which can take up to over a month to conclude so there is some time for the parties built into the deal to try and politically negotiate a mediate ways that salvage the deal and indeed this is what europeans are hoping

to do is that they can use this period of time to save got the deal now in the meantime iran has said in the recent months that it has various options on on its side it can either continue here into the deal if it gets tangible economic benefits in return from the p four plus one absent the united states or it's also said that it has the option to revamp its nuclear program if the united states walks away and reasonably from the deal or imposes new sanctions. ellie joining us from istanbul on the iran nuclear deal thank you much appreciated a couple of comments coming through as well from you watching on facebook live and on twitter out there aman as you say a lot of the criticism goes towards the u.s. here saying. why isn't the world talking about the u.s. is nuclear weapons us does have nuclear weapons and more to do with these the aggressor at the moment though some would say the united states is being aggressive as well might on twitter has said chemical and biological weapons treaty was broken
