a moment with more on what iran is saying but first though this report from kimberly how. the united states says iran is a threat and it wants to punish the country's government by isolating from the global financial system starting tuesday u.s. sanctions will be reimposed to target a range of sectors blocking iran from purchasing u.s. bang. and trading in gold and metals like aluminum and steel it will also limit iran's access to software and automotive sectors will blocking its ability to purchase commercial aircraft or trade in food and other goods this was a horrible one sided deal that should have never ever been made the snapback sanctions are part of a promise made by u.s. president donald trump when he withdrew the united states in may from the twenty fifteen agreement known as the j c p o a close u.s. allies like france's president emmanuel mccraw and germany's chancellor angela

merkel remain committed to the agreement aimed at limiting tehran's nuclear program but the u.s. argues it didn't work and didn't go far enough. the u.s. also argues the profits made from the lifting of sanctions is being used to purchase and export weapons in places like syria lebanon and gaza to support proxy militias and the state financing of terrorism. the sanctions come as protests continue in iran against deteriorating economic conditions but the united states denies the sanctions are timed to force regime change instead it says it hopes to modify the iranian government's behavior despite longstanding u.s. policy of no formal diplomatic relations with iran president donald trump has even indicated he's willing to sit down for talks with iran's leaders no preconditions

no they want to meet any time they want this snapback sanctions are also just the beginning in ninety days another round of even more punishing sanctions targeting iran's massive oil industry will come in to a fact kimberly helped at al-jazeera the white house for the white house let's go to tehran and. joins us live from there the president hassan rouhani has just finished giving an interview on iranian t.v. and it sounding quite defiant oh what did he actually have to say. well if you were to take all of his answers at least in so far as he was talking about the united states in the trump administration and the nuclear deal and make a word cloud then i think the word that would be one of the most prominent would be china he mentioned this very important regional and economic ally for iran several times in his speech no doubt an indication that dealings future dealings with that

country will be an important part of iran's strategy to sort of stem the economic pressure coming from the united states he also addressed the idea of talking to american president donald trump and to this white house and in with sort of a smirk on his face in one of the lighter moments of this address on television he said that he would be open to negotiating and having new talks with the united states if donald trump want to talk about apologizing to iran for interfering in the country's affairs and paying back iran for all of the economic hardship that american interference in iran's affairs has caused the country's economy now again it was one of the lighter moments but he also addressed the idea of negotiating with donald trump in more serious terms let's listen to what he had to say that's. the person who was abandoned because the nations is trump and his government and he is doing something which is against the iranian people against the interests of

iran. is there was honestly iran would come to because you know. what. the u.s. sanction is contradict any intention to negotiate how can we be honest about wanting to negotiate if you bring sanctions against children and sick people. as a interesting they are president romney talking about children sick people very much highlighting how the sanctions will hurt ordinary iranians of course as well as the government what can i write actually do right now to combat the u.s. sanctions. well we've heard from the government several times about what it plans to do on the global scale russia and china are important trading partners they intend on doubling down on that economic relationship the president hassan rouhani in this address also applauded the e.u. for blocking regulations that it is implementing to make sure that it can resist american sanctions so it's really hoping that its moral authority that it's

achieved by staying in the nuclear deal can translate into some kind of economic benefit on the international stage mr rouhani also addressed his people directly and he said that he acknowledges that they are going through financial hardships but said that the only way the that they could resist being brought to their knees by the united states is by maintaining a unified front so president hassan rouhani reaching out to his people saying that he knows that they're protesting because they are in difficult circumstances but he's asking for a little more time to help course correct the country's economy saying that's right they were the latest from tehran saying thank you for that. rescuers on the indonesian island of lombok are 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 known to have died but

this has been on the police. can perform their professional duty a lot of the journalist saying that you can be in a war zone and still not a big target but here out here while we are covering a protest march we were targeted by certain elements of the society in front of the police this has been major funds up front and now we have reaction from some of the journalists this is what they had to say i'm addicted to be somebody. we have going to monitor journalists should be able to work safely we want the women street to identify this attack is so we can. safe. we are journalist also. we want. the purchase for road safety and safety for journalists is something we want to give that the reason we want this is because in

along the motorway to collapse one of the trucks is believed to have been carrying flammable material more than a thousand firefighters are tackling a major wildfire in southern portugal the fire broke out on saturday in the southern algarve region an area that's popular with tourists firefighters are also battling a fire near portugal's border with spain record high temperatures and high winds have made it more difficult to get the fires under control. now mexico's new president elect has promised a different way of dealing with organized crime and respond a way look pays over a daughter who believes pulling people out of poverty will help curb the country's epidemic of violence a former gang member who's now becoming a state congressman is an example of how the plan could work from home and went to san luis to meet him. the new local congressman from san luis mexico to meet his constituents is unlike any politician they've seen before

a child will burn the street kids just like them make good. for some pedophile his nickname there me he's is a blueprint for the incoming government on how they can rescue young people drawn to crime his buddies a patchwork of tattoos and knife cuts product of a life of violence and drug addiction until he hit bottom and line up by the way in my family my mother was sick with kidney failure they called me and i was drinking with my crew thinking tomorrow should be ok and she died and i didn't get to say goodbye and to kill the pain i jumped in front of cars i tried to hang myself from a tree in my garden i was taking cocaine all the time i was twenty four years old that was the turning point he sought help a christian mentor who gave him his first job he in turn says he gained a faith and a mission to help san luis is young and marginalized but when i realized there aren't public policies for the young and there are lots of them like me who didn't

get to choose where they live children with dreams stops just like me i wanted to be an actor so i started to campaign for space for them to try and reduce the fights between gangs. formed an association an organized football tournament stances work programs hundreds of gang members turned up to broker peace deals between them. i see him as an example to follow that you can come from the barrio and still managed to become someone. now he's heading to the local congress not everyone's pleased many criticize his criminal past and doubt his reform. he says he's received threats but he says he can't let down those in the city's gangs know his approach chimes with the incoming president and there's manuel lopez obrador nationwide plans beilenson mexico's record levels and the incoming administration says the strategy has to change rather than just confronting those drawn to

organized crime they say that young people need to be offered other options. controversially that includes an amnesty for some low level gang members only he supports that and so far his base seems to follow him but they have a warning. to the news just don't lose sight of who you are remember it's better to be remembered as a good person than to have a street named after you thank you that's a test for me he's on the rest of the incoming government they bring the social change they promise will succumb to their newfound political power john holdren son luis potosi the new christopher robin movie will not be released in china and many believe that's because the leaders paying is prickly about comparisons between him and one of the lead characters namely winnie the pooh china's censorship of the cartoon bear started last year with authorities blocking images on social media because people were likening poos

a perience appearance to seize it aaron brown explains. winnie the pooh of course means different things to different people to many children around the world he's the adorable pudgy bear with a partial for honey but it seems here in china he has become an enemy of the state that's because a new film made by disney christopher robin in which winnie the pooh of course has a starring role will not now be shown in china no reason has been given china imports about forty foreign films a year and while that quota hasn't been reached yet no reason has been given as to why christopher robin will not now be shown in china now winnie the pooh's sort of got in the crosshairs of chinese censors more than a year ago that's when images started appearing online contrast ing winnie the pooh with president xi jinping there was apparently

a physical resemblance the most popular meme photograph of all is one which pairs a picture of xi jinping and then president barack obama with another picture of winnie the pooh and his good mate tigger winnie the pooh has in many ways become a symbol and unlikely symbol of dissent that's because loucheux bo who won the nobel peace prize and of course died in hospital more than a year ago was pictured holding a mug with an image of winnie the pooh on it shortly before he died it was a final defiant stance by a man who had been a thorn in the side of china's government for so long now while it's fair to say that censorship under president xi jinping has been getting worse during the past few years you know as a journalist you encounter it every day here in china there has never the less been

some pushback during the past few weeks just last week there was a protest by parents outside. by the health ministry here in beijing they believe the government is covering up the true extent of a vaccine scandal vaccines substandard vaccines that emerged were given to children for things like tetanus typhoid and also hooping cough as well as rabies but as we now know those vaccines were sub standard and then just a few days ago there was a curious essay that was published online it was written by a prominent chinese academic and he criticized president xi jinping and said it was time for the communist party to look again at what happened in one thousand nine hundred ninety when those protests ended in so many people dying he said it was chime for the chinese government to re-evaluate what happened in one thousand nine hundred nine and he also said it was time for the party to reverse its decision to

end two term limits for president xi jinping president xi at the moment of course arguably the most powerful chinese leader since chairman mao people in europe are being told to stay hydrated as a record breaking heat wave sweeps across the continent here in london many residents are buying bottles of water to keep cool but that's also led to a surge in plastic waste now the mayor said the cardinal wants to turn the tide on the british capital's plastic problem by bringing back water fountains catherine stansell reports. london may have been the city that pioneered the public drinking fountain but its popularity has dried up since this one was built in eight hundred fifty nine. only a handful of watch a fountain success to the capitol today as more people reach for bottled water to quench their thirst now with the growing threat of plastics to the environment

london wants to bring a new generation of water fountain to the british public. earlier this year mayor sidique khan announced a pilot scheme of twenty water stations to be built it's part of a nearly one million dollar project to reduce plastic waste in london over the next three years they're being installed in shopping districts and commuter hubs and if they prove successful the project may expand the scope for expanding the extent of a ability of water for londoners is huge we need to make sure that people have access to water and then not having to pay for it but the the all the benefit that would come would actually be in reducing congestion if you move water in pipes then rather than in plastic bottles that have to be transported by lorry you reduce the number of lorries on the road you reduce the road danger and you make your city streets into healthier and better places to be every minute one million plastic drinking bottles are bought around the world in britain more than seven and

a half billion single use water bottles are used every year london is the biggest consumer and the worst for recycling the average adult buys one hundred seventy five plastic water bottles a year less than half are recycled many of them end up here in britain's waterways this small team of volunteers is working with the charity thames twenty one they're part of thousands of people who help clean and monitor the rubbish that flows through the river each year times twenty one thousand of our ten percent of the rubbish they collect here is plastic half of that are single use plastic bottles like this one and just a few months ago volunteers here in london collected more than four thousand single used bottles in just one day. the charity hopes the new fountains will make a difference one of the reasons that people are buying water is because they don't have access to drinking water when there are about the london drinking fountain the fund is going to fund twenty new fountains that's

a great start we certainly want to see move but we have very hopeful that people will start to use them and hopeful that more people will think of the environment and turn on the taps instead of turning to the bottle cap and stats are al-jazeera london. more on that and never seeing else the way have been covering here on al-jazeera on our website there it is the address al-jazeera dot com. i'll bring a reminder of our top stories iran's president hassan rouhani has given a television interview accusing washington of being untrustworthy this just hours before u.s. sanctions come back into effect the sanctions were triggered by donald trump's the says him to pull out of the two thousand and fifteen nuclear deal rouhani accused of waging psychological warfare on iran that's because to. the person who was abandoned because the nations is trump and his government is doing something which
