mike pump aoe but not donald trump in the absence of a presidential meeting johnson penned an editor. in the new york times newspaper and has been appearing on multiple u.s. t.v. networks urging trump to remain in the agreement he will be tougher on iran but not throw away that the the heart of the deal which is all about stopping them getting nuclear weapons the deal was negotiated in twenty fifty and under the administration of u.s. president barack obama and included other european countries as well as russia and china is designed to contain iran's nuclear program for civilian use only. trouble was to get out of the deal unless it's fixed to address iran's missile program a tehran's other military activities in the region on monday on twitter he called the deal a mess and criticized the man who helped negotiate it former secretary of state john kerry along with the president trump advisor rudolph giuliani is also
1:04 am
criticizing kerry and what they call his shadow diplomacy this follows media reports kerry recently met with the iranian foreign minister job as a relief at the united nations i don't think that we would take advice from somebody who created what the president sees to be one of the worst deals ever made is the latest signal us president donald trump is preparing to withdraw from the iran deal still france britain and germany have indicated they'll remain in the agreement regardless of the u.s. decision kimberly healthy at al-jazeera at the white house or the iranian president says he is committed to the day and as long as yvonne's interests are protected. your own chim are down about a jaw me whole heem regarding the nuclear agreement if our interests and objectives are protected by all the parties to the agreement except america then we will be committed to it if america leaves the agreement it will not mean anything actually it will mean that the agreement got rid of the evil that used to live inside it
1:05 am
however if our objectives and interests are not protected we will choose our way even. his goal is to weaken iran we confirm we will face that forcefully and with no hesitation or going back any american mistake or miscalculation will be met with a strong response that will make it regret it and feel like he is committed a strategic mistake. the want. to continue as a minister under the sectarian power sharing system despite his poor showing and. have lost seats. and its allies when more than half the seats in parliament there has. there was a clear winner and lebanon's election. hezbollah and its political allies won the majority of seats in parliament it's being seen by some as
1:06 am
a victory for iran this is backed by iran it's the only lebanese party that has an armed wing and its electoral gains further empowers it politically hezbollah's leader called for cooperation. and. stressed that there is a reality in lebanon and that is that no one can eliminate the other even if we have disagreements we want political stability we need to cooperate. the general elections was a loss for lebanon's prime minister saddle had no longer heads the largest block in the legislature but he still retains the majority of seats allocated to suddenly muslims how did he faced opposition from within his own community have accused him of being too lenient with hezbollah which is fighting in neighboring syria when asked if he plans to change that approach the prime minister said the focus should be on development and improving the lebanese economy.
1:07 am
i disagree with many issues and will continue to disagree with them but what do i told the lebanese people. working on services like electricity water roads and instead focus on political challenge levanon can handle political crises. clearly indicating his willingness to continue working with his political rivals he has led a national unity government since late two thousand and sixteen a cabinet that includes members of hezbollah. and the last election in two thousand and nine it was the pro western approach saudi alliance headed by saddle that won the majority of seats in parliament since then iran's influence has been growing not just here in lebanon but across the region and it has been at the expense of saudi arabia. saudi arabia used to play a major role in lebanese politics. for the better. i would be i was busy with other conflicts in the region like yemen the war there is
1:08 am
a priority for riyadh but also saudi arabia was aware that there are laws in lebanon where no longer united and they couldn't be a force to confront hezbollah but will not leave the ground for iran. for now however there is little indication that lebanon is heading towards political instability lebanese politicians are talking about putting their differences aside and uniting now that the election is over. beirut now high government from the international crisis group says that promise to her will most likely accept some form of cooperation with hezbollah. but i said we should not. because then that becomes. if it becomes too obvious then maybe this will save a lot of this country this is a government and this is essential state and america should. so small i
1:09 am
