steel allen minium and cole. and no more commercial planes boeing scrambled to deliver an order if a new planes before monday's deadline round two is jus to happen in november those sanctions will block iran's oil sales and are expected to do even more damage going to be live in tehran in just a moment first though this report from same bus ravi. on july fourteenth two thousand and fifteen america and iran made history with the help of germany france china and russia the decades long signed a joint comprehensive plan of action the agreement years in the making used economic sanctions in return for curbs on iran's development of nuclear technology . signed in vienna it was celebrated and ron many iranians thought the lifting of sanctions which had crippled the economy for years was the beginning of the end of

their struggle for their leaders it was the fulfillment of their election campaign promise. today is the day that marked a starting point for a new mood a new dynamism and exuberance the first day for a new hope a better future for our young people and a starting point for the more rapid development and progress of our great nation of iran. but iran's relief from economic isolation was to be short lived any hopes iranians had of normal trade links with the outside world unfettered access to the global banking system and foreign investment to help develop their country were dashed by this man powerful. three years after it was signed the u.s. president fulfilled a campaign promise of his own to dismantle the nuclear deal america will not be held hostage to nuclear blackmail we will not allow american cities to be threatened with destruction and we will not allow a regime that chanced death to america to gain access to the most deadly weapons on

earth. iran maintains it never intended to build a nuclear weapon only civilian nuclear power projects and the international atomic energy agency the un watchdog tasked to monitor iran's nuclear capabilities has repeatedly confirmed iranian compliance many iranians say trumps desire to undo president barack obama's most significant foreign policy achievement is out of personal animosity and an effort by the trumpet ministration to reaffirm america's traditional relationship with saudi arabia if the europeans present iran with the mccann ism the there to ensure iran's continued merits on the way and ensure that you would have its free flow of crude still flies and the money will be sent back home. respective of the us sanctions then the nuclear deal will work and not see tensions escalate

a ball in the specific level technically the deal is not dead other signatories are standing by it and iran continues to comply with u.s. threats of secondary sanctions against anyone who trades with iran and american influence over global banking has denied iran the ability to pursue meaningful economic development many iranians blame the rouhani administration for failing to see this coming almost as much as they blame trump himself zain joins us live from tehran now we have a speaking about people there in iran already suffering from a weakening current see high prices a lack of jobs how much concern is that there about the impact of renewed sanctions . well we've really seen the anxiety people are feeling in the last few days for the last six days six nights i should say we've seen street protest sporadic protests throughout the country protesting effectively

what is a a breakdown in the economy the value of the real as you say has fallen drastically half ing in value in less than a year or so protesters have been coming out onto the streets these protests it has to be said are small they're spread throughout the country but they are consistent and the thing that they keep saying is that there is not enough being done to salvage the economy and now they certainly blame the united states in part but they blame internal corruption they blame their own leadership and they're saying that. the few changes there have been in the central bank we've seen the head of the central bank fired and replaced the chief officer of the central bank in charge of foreign exchange fire and fired and replaced and tomorrow we'll see some financial . policy changes to try and salvage the value of the iranian currency go into effect but opposition political leaders and civilian protesters say that that's not enough we need changes at the federal level at the cabinet level to try and counter

the impact of these u.s. sanctions in the sort of economic psychological warfare being carried out by the trumpet ministration on the iranian economy what can we expect from the president has sound ronnie when he speaks later on. well we we're expecting to hear from him in a couple of hours we've heard from his foreign minister earlier today and they're really going to be echoing the same kind of thing foreign minister zarif saying once again trump cannot be trusted the idea of negotiating with him or talking to him is ridiculous because he is the man that pulled the united states out of the nuclear deal the deal that the majority of the world agrees was working and he also said that the sanctions are something that iran will overcome and that we've crossed the stage here in iran of the crisis moment when it comes to these sanctions that many people on the streets protesting as well as political leaders as well as economic watchers will disagree with optimistic assessment but we're

expecting the rouhani government to be seen to be doing something to be seen to strike a positive note as we move forward into yet more u.s. sanctions and this is this isn't the end of it the real sanctions will be coming in of ember when the united states targets the biggest revenue generator of the country the oil and gas industry all right thank you very much with all the latest from tac ron is a mess ravi let's head to washington now i can really help following this story kimberly what is the trouble ministration hoping to achieve from this position of sanctions. essentially to isolate it from the global financial system so that's why we're seeing this executive order signed it's essentially a snap back of the sanctions that had been in place but were lifted under the j c p u a or that twenty fifteen agreement with the united states iran and other world powers to limit its nuclear program what the united states has been arguing is that

since those sanctions were lifted that iran's leaders have enjoyed enormous profits but instead of funneling that money down to the ordinary iranian instead what the united states alleges is that iran has been financing what it calls terrorism across the broader middle east in the form of proxy militias as well as to sort of destabilize the greater middle east so the united states says through this executive order comes down in two waves the first taking effect midnight tuesday and the second wave in november essentially this is the design to what the united states says is not change the regime in iran but instead to support the iranian people to see that the that they are essentially supported so striking while the iron's hot is what many people say is is happening here that in the wave of these anti-government protests the u.s. government has decided to act but certainly what it is doing in sort of the broader

scheme of things is isolating iran from the global financial system crippling it if you will so that it will ultimately agree to what donald trump has been promising in the campaign trail is that he would get a better agreement the argument being that the twenty fifteen agreement didn't go far enough may have limited iran's nuclear program even some members of the top administration agreeing that iran has complied under the terms of that deal but that the deal didn't go far enough ok thank you very much kimberly how kit in washington. now rescuers only indonesian island of long still trying to assess the extent of the damage from sunday's powerful earthquake the second to strike there in a week at least ninety eight people are now known to have died but a step vasa reports from many more might be trapped in the wreckage of their homes
