minutes trying to put the pressure on life and iran u.s. sanctions are now in force but the e.u. says its businesses should trade even more. a corruption probe closes in on the latest former leader set to have money laundering added to the list of charges. thousands of buildings in ruin and rescue teams still struggling to reach some villages after sunday's powerful earthquake in indonesia. and saudi arabia stops flights to canada but how much effect will its growing diplomatic spat really have . yes sanctions aimed at pressuring iran are officially in place but donald trump still trying to rally support for them he tweeted that those who do business with the ronn won't be allowed to trade with us the european union is already saying it will encourage its businesses to do even more and the u.k.

minister says it will leave british businesses to make a commercial decision saying sions have been brought back because of trump's anger at the two thousand and fifteen iran nuclear deal it sought china russia the us and european countries lift all penalties on doing business with iran and exchange for curbing of its nuclear development program under the deal nuclear related research is limited until two thousand and twenty four while the stockpile of uranium was cut by ninety eight percent tehran signed up to keep it at its level for fifteen years but doesn't think the programs restrictions are tough enough calling it horrible and one sided he says missile development plan should be brought under any deal and he wants tehran to change its foreign policy will be live in washington in a moment first those same us ravi is in tehran televised interview on the eve of u.s. sanctions snapping back into place iran's president admonished america praised his european allies and asked his people for

a little more time to fix the country's economy and that to be steadily going to have huge that we need more solidarity we should be more united i'm telling my dear people god willing with your help we will get through this problem these problems won't be long term problems if we become united if we stay together to increase our exports to increase our production to be good to each other to fight corruption to have more transparency we will get through these problems america is not able to do anything to bring us to our knees. he mentioned china and russia several times a signal that iran intends to continue its pivot toward strategic economic partners to cope with yet more american economic pressure. and with the latest comments by the european foreign policy chief perhaps there is a reason for iranians to be optimistic we in the european union. they didn't our blocking started to very much up to date. with this this is

a legislation the european union has in place to protect european businesses from the effect of secondary sanctions of sanctions that the u.s. imposes outside of its territory we believe that it is and it has to be up to the europeans in this case to the side with home to trade with so there is also a matter of i would say trade sovereignty to be protected mongering he says european countries are encouraging small and larger companies to increase business with and in iran saying a strong relationship with iran that helps to preserve the twenty fifteen nuclear deal is a security priority for europe while iranian see european policy as business friendly they say it hasn't changed the reality on the ground it's about time to start versus the whole sanctions will be imposed the harder the station will be for the

people that don't want to satisfied it was a country that other countries pushed to be like in the past now it's trying to be like other countries economic situation is horrible wow. i'm so worried about my life future country and as a young girl i'm worried about my job there are no drop opportunities and i'm afraid of losing my job. the value of the iranian currency the reaal is still in shambles and foreign direct investment that left after the united states pulled out of the nuclear deal has not returned despite european assurances scattered economic protests across the country signal growing public discontent with economic conditions but the worst is yet to come in november more u.s. sanctions will go into effect this time striking at the very heart of iran's biggest source of revenue oil and gas. to her own family from washington d.c. now kimberly donald trump often uses twitter to make foreign policy pronouncements

or to make his public case it's no different this time tell us more about what he has been tweeting about his thoughts his position on these new sanctions. right well the president is underscoring what he has said essentially when he was running for president back in two thousand and sixteen that he's always felt that the iran nuclear agreement that was put in place between the united states iran and other world powers to live in iran's nuclear program that it was in his words a one sided deal as a result we see the fact that the may the united states has withdrawn from that agreement promising the punishing sanctions now those are going into effect so we have donald trump tweeting a very early in the last few hours saying the iran sanctions have been officially cast these are the most by having sanctions ever imposed but we know the most biting ones are really the ones coming in november that we have been talking about this morning here in washington and around the world and these are the ones that target the oil revenues the certainly this could have

a crippling effect on iran and so certainly this is a sort of a heavy handed approach by the united states to try and push iran's leaders to the negotiating table this is a tactic we've seen work with the north korean leader and we're seeing it again in fact the national security advisor john bolton suggesting that there are wise to take up the u.s. this offer to negotiate the president is willing to meet even though this may break with longstanding u.s. policy of no diplomatic relations that's where the united states stands now feeling that this maximum pressure campaign this economic pressure is the way to try and resolve an impasse that has been in place for decades you brought in north korea and absolutely that is another country that has been under strict international sanctions it really doesn't seem to have stopped their nuclear ambitions though and clearly you know president has been trying in some ways to reverse that he's still

leaving a door open to some sort of communication with north korea can really. absolutely richelle you really hit the nail on the head there when you talk about sort of the similarities between these two situations one obviously progressing at a different pace than the other. north korea through state media has been urging the united states to lift sanctions very punishing crippling sanctions again because of what it sees as these good faith efforts but we've had the national security advisor john bolton speaking in just the last hour or so national television here in the united states saying that you know really what needs to happen now is discussion not a lifting of sanctions so he has suggested that the u.s. secretary of state would be willing to go to north korea to have another meeting as we saw him do with the north korean leader previously to that meeting between the u.s. president the north korean leader whether that will happen is unclear but also when we hear john bolton speak we have to remember that this is also

a man that has called for a preemptive strike on north korea so certainly there is a feeling of nervousness in all of this in underscoring all of this because this is a man that has a timetable an agenda and maybe even pushing the trying to administration along so certainly this is something that is very notable the fact that john bolton has said this and to watch very carefully whether or not this secretary of state entertains this idea of another trip to north korea ok emily alkali for us in washington d.c. kimberly thank you let's pivot back to iran now and exactly who trades with iran according to the international monetary fund figures from last year about nineteen point five percent of iran's total tree is with china the second biggest partner is the united arab emirates with about sixteen point eight percent and a very close third the twenty eight nations that make up the european union totaling sixteen point three percent of trade iran's primary exports are oil and gas and other petro chemicals in addition to fruits and vegetables its main imports

are farming machinery and vehicles cereals along with. iron and steel and the sanctions are likely to affect its airline industry approximately thirty eight billion dollars and deals had been agreed to between tehran and western firms and the fate of iran's airline industry is very much in limbo with any sanctions making it difficult to upgrade an aging fleet of planes francoise nichol is a former french ambassador to iran he joins us via skype from sonorous a mare and france thank you very much for your time so the new seems to thinking so the e.u. seems to be consistently taking a stand against these free impose sanctions from the u.s. is the e.u. in a position to offset any any of the damage that can be done by these new u.s. sanctions were a little partially score so in that they you want to be able to to bring a. big european banks having to do work with iran or to bring back group usual

or ruin or the french. make which hug it's still have an important place in iran bert i believe that europe with time of call. a lot of work to be done because this is a complex situation we'd be able to maintain and probably to develop if you or good current business you know with to see more. go medium sized enterprises which are and do read of the american sanctions administration this is possible indeed it will take time we'll have to wait for. about six months late said to see if this can work but regard to how they you know you measure the optimism on this on this point and the sanctions that

run place for so long before did benchley get iran to the negotiating table. do you think that that is a possibility this time with this round of sanctions as well when when iran is actually not nearly as isolated as it was before. were they wouldn't say that previously sanctions brought iran to the table in fact i believe the executive contrary i will explain this perhaps at length it was because precisely the sanctions were not efficient enough to stop to impede the development of the nuclear program that finally the americans who you were prince decided to enter into a negotiation reveal right but it is true that the sanction hudden effect because for building define that agreement a famous a g c p u it it's true that the run would have not made the same

concessions if it had not been and very harsh sanctions look there was this it was a mixture of failure and the success of the international sanctions before brought iran to deter but this is part of past about a future i forgot what is your time to do is the question is could this be reproduced yes i doubt it it's a it's a bit difficult i believe iran will suit or it's trying to resist the present pressure it would be very difficult to first probably six nine months will be indeed terribly difficult if iran is not sure i will have to wait if the iranian regime is able to to go through difficult period i think. things will go better because you know or people build with to go around sanctions do you rob

we'll put in action probably with two to be able to develop its trade with iran we have to we have to wait until the big big moment will be due introduction of oil sanctions that will be so we'll have to do with who thousand and ninety to see if these sanctions can produce fake desired by the american ok and in the meantime obviously this is something that is the sanctions are not having an economic impact but what eventually might the political impact to be. the e.u. being on one side the u.s. being on another side china on one side russia on another that might this have a trickle down effect to two political impact as well. yes with his ilk or does it got a worldwide effect is good much beyond the region to the rift to be created between

the u.s. and the rest of the world europe and no the major culprit i wouldn't say that the us is i saluted us of people say because we cited the shifts of the us economy makes it not isolated but. on the other hand of it it. is the difficulties created by myriad gun policy certainly. destroying this kind of unanimity which existed within the international community regarding iran. and this will make but will be more difficult for the american to the americans to implement the sanctions ok francoise thank you so much for joining us we appreciate your time very much like plenty more had and the news hour including the messengers

earthquake at least twenty thousand people have had their homes destroyed or damaged and the destruction of roads and bridges means it's proving difficult for emergency crews to get around that magnitude six point nine quake has killed nearly one hundred people and many more are fair trapped under the rubble. we must still be in trauma after three to six months i don't think will be easy to return to normal life we need to do with slowly because we really traumatized we did all sleep what's our plan for the future we don't know there have been some stories though of survival two people have been pulled out of the rubble alive one man was trapped under a mosque that collapsed on sunday he was found after rescue workers used heavy machinery to clear the debris and has the latest from. here at this mosque nobody has been found alive today rescue workers are really really struggling to complaining they don't have the right equipment it is

a very few big excavator us but very very few most rescue workers are basically doing their work manually trying to dig with their bare hands they actually have left this mosque for the night the rescue operation has been suspended until the morning which basically also shows the pace of this rescue operation going on in lombok right now there's a lot of frustration they also complain that things are arriving too late. the villages of course are also complaining about it they just showed up here at the most you know where are the rescue workers we can actually smell a very bad smell of bad bodies here right now which means that of course a lot of people seem to be still buried here and what people do here if they all go up to the hills they have been spending the night up in the mountain put in last two nights because it's very very scared to come down and they asked for everything basically to ask for hands for blankets for food for medicine this nothing deal yet

and it seems that so far the whole rescue operation and also the aid operation has been quite on coordinated so a lot of pockets have still yet to receive anything rights groups are demanding the release of journalists arrested for covering student protests and then called dash for talk of her and journalists a mom was detained after an interview with al-jazeera his family says he has been tortured human rights watch watch that as wants the government to investigate reports that he was beaten in jail students have been demonstrating for nine days for tougher traffic laws. the latest from dhaka. there's a journalist from a different maybe another in front of a national. audience that probably covering the protests around. no they want some sort of justice and accountability and they want police production while throwing a protest rally at the media community is right in

a recent article because i've been targeted while covering student protests rallies we spoke to some of the journalists who wanted their reaction this is what not to say about it and we try to perform our professional duties we get attacked we get beaten up our cameras get snatched and broken we want this to end on our need to. protest because we've been abused the government always claims is freedom of press but is attacking is does that make up press free which is boy who are protesting. i want a work environment to be safe the police should cooperate with us so that there are no wood types and no threats and also from any quotas prominent photo journalist show the law and was arrested right after an interview with al-jazeera he was taken into custody by the defected police unproduced encroach yesterday show the law i'm told a court that he was tortured by the detective police the court instead of giving him bail allowed that they'd like to play strange irrigating for seven more days the situation is grim for the media community here in saudi arabia state airline

has suspended flights to toronto in an intensifying diplomatic dispute with canada us trade and investment deals on monday and expel the canadian ambassador it's in retaliation for canada's call for saudi arabia to release human rights activists like here brian reports. among those detained in saudi arabia is the sister of this man six years ago blogger. two thousand lashes to be administered over twenty weeks to criticizing saudi arabian clerics. now his sister summer is among a number of women's rights activists who've been imprisoned sparking protests from the canadian government and which in turn was met with a shop and immediate saudi response via state controlled television of. the kingdom used the canadian position as an affront to the kingdom but requires a sharp response to prevent any party from attempting to meddle with the south and

sovereignty. the canadian foreign minister makes clear they will be no backing down . to canada's commitment to putting human rights at the center of our foreign policy has drawn some attention in recent days. i'm referring of course to the expulsion of canada's ambassador to saudi arabia and let me be very clear with everyone here and with the canadians who may be watching and listening canada will always stand up for human rights in canada and around the world and women's rights are human rights this new diplomatic meltdown comes on the heels of calls for the canadian government to suspend sales to saudi arabia opposition parties and human rights groups insist canadian military vehicles are being used to crush political dissent the east of

the kingdom the stakes are high saudi is the largest importer of canadian military hardware after the united states saudi air has now stopped all flights to canada and a planned visit by saudi students has been cancelled the message is clear keep out of what saudi says is its internal business or else. overall i'm there is with us from qatar university he's a senior policy analyst at the social and economic survey research institute thank you very much for your time and your issue can either of these countries actually have a true economic impact on the other. well. overall the big picture no there won't be much of an impact although these are two large economies are the two of them belong to do group of the twenty largest economies in the world they don't trade so much together the two way much of di's trade is around four billion u.s. dollar which may seem to be big but overall with regards to their g.d.p.

or their overall exports it's very little if you compare for instance the exports of canada towards saudi arabia towards their g.d.p. we have just one point five million billion u.s. dollars compared to more than two trillion dollars so all and it's in some sort of perspective well then what's it about well that's more about diplomacy and the saudi government has a tendency to settle its disputes or to try to settle this dispute through economic means yes absolutely yes as qatar is aware yeah well you've mentioned qatar that's one example there was a number go against qatar a year ago but also with germany for instance in november twenty seventh when to germans complain about the issue with regards to the prime minister rafik hariri being considered by some detained in saudi arabia after this deed germany be

ministry of foreign affairs expressed its concern and decided he has reacted the same way that they have reacted with the kenedy and they decided to freeze any contract that could be given to the kenyans at this as as a tactic. the the crown prince is trying to get investment in the country for the future for his twenty thirty vision yes is this going to make countries has certain to do business with with the saudis if this is how they react to disagreements yes so countries not necessarily but for the investment. to come in it's more about companies so the largest companies the oil and gas companies the infrastructure companies will probably keep coming because they are protected in a sense by their national governments if you have a very large let's say french company dealing like tortola in oil and gas it will be protected by the french government but when we deal with the s.m.

eased the small and medium size and to prices these companies will think twice before going to saudi arabia do you see this escalating in any way i don't believe so but it's quite difficult to say because the crown prince has shown in less than a year and a half quite some sometimes surprising reactions to better protect of all it times we can say it like that ok and last but not least we need to at all saul and other elements is that within less than a year old saw the most prominent businessman of saudi arabia where arrested so that plays a big role in to fear that then can be that there can be a broad with regards to disown the market which is a booming one otherwise ok thank you very much for joining us liberal. from katerina varsity thank you very much thank you israeli tank fire into the gaza

strip has killed two members of hamas and wounded others and those killed are reportedly members of the ark a somber gates the military wing of hamas israeli army says it retaliated against gunfire aimed at its troops. two wildfires have merged to become the largest ever in california's history and firefighters say the fire it mendocino is still growing further south in orange county a new wildfire is burning swaths of land people have been told to leave their homes as a precaution and the army is sending in troops to help emergency crews battling more than one hundred twenty fires a team of firefighters from australia have also been flown in to help. time for weather now a step from modifies in california to wildfires in portugal yes it's been incredibly hot over many parts of europe for weeks now and it still holds over the iberian peninsula and we have wildfires in fact is the fifth day in the southern part of portugal where they've been burning out of control and we've got

a thousand firefighters fighting them at the moment they're still blazing but there is slightly good news on the horizon because it does look like the weather is finally beginning to ease for some of us in europe at least here's the temperature chart for today you can see it still incredibly hot over many parts of the iberian peninsula through parts of france and up through the low countries and into germany incredibly hot here but look what happens if i fall for this twenty four hours so this is wednesday's chart you see the colors of the red ones nudge their way eastwards and instead they become slightly yellow a slightly pale a day over the northwestern parts and that's because the temperatures now easing so look at london twenty two degrees that's a bit better and then that cooler weather will also spread further south so paris should only have a maximum temperature of twenty two as we head through into thursday there is still hot weather across europe that's just being pushed further east but even here the goal eventually begin to break so this could be the beginning of the end or at least the beginning of a lull so here's why we've got plenty of cloud of rain pushing in at the moment

it's turning cooler and there's quite a few thunderstorms woman leading edge of that cool. stuff thanks still ahead on al-jazeera this is their plan people these are. the talk show host who counts president all trump is a fan of spam from several social media platforms. and sanctions in iran are a very brazen.
