that produces forty six percent of the world sockeye salmon. salmon return to the place that they're hatched so they're hatched they go out into the ocean and stay there for a few years and then fight their way back to lay their own eggs. we probably should come to the back door can we just walk through oh yes because they want to see. my gramma around about a breakfast here for at least twenty years pretty much the same as you remember and you remember when you kids planted all those trees they got so big you couldn't see them make hardly disappear so scared of this of like run. this in with the room where we found the jews. yes. miss america here down here the memories here are so wonderful. going to be

a new thing here again this place was so formative for me even though i only came here during the summer it's a sense where i sort of envision a lot of my childhood. you get to explore it you get to make mistakes you get independence. i come back here in the summer right this is a summer home for me. but when this is a home home for people there's just such a fundamental attachment to the land. for many including my family fishing and hunting is vital to survival here. i think it's hard for people to envision places that do do this out of necessity so it's not just a cultural thing or a traditional thing people need to do this because finding out. groceries their supplies is so expensive. people need salmon and other wild foods

to have enough protein for that yeah. there are people out. so in smokehouse that's going. and i help with anything and i think you've got a very good team i don't want you to get out there he would have another. as a kid i really love the heart of the salmon on the heart comes out it's often still beating so i would take the higher end run around to nearby fishermen and show them the persistence of the sun it's incredible the current is going against the bears are trying to get fishermen props and that's and then you find. it on the fish table it's wriggling you kill it and his heart is still beating. so how has processing change versus when you're growing up or before you even have

. to walk in the lake city where we just saw the first before freezers and put them in like a customer yeah we. only ever used of us through the loop earlier about the same thing i know but. where to car is going to . show you. there's a service companionship around the fish table. men aren't typically around because they commercial fish serve work other seasonal jobs in the summer it's mainly women who it's the i really love talking or gossiping joking making fun of each other. you know i've never done it because. it's just really fun you feel really supported . you know you do it i think we say doing this because there are so many things that you do to the fish.

to god. but. as a kid i would hope empty the got bucket and hang fish up to dry and canned salmon but now i work at the fish table. even when the weather's bad and your hands are freezing and your back is tired there's nothing more satisfying than doing fish. it's been really cool going to all the different fish tables. and everyone's quite particular and maybe a little sneaky about the way they do but it's because i think everyone thinks they do their fish the right way.

when you have a camera full of water and these heavy chairs it's usually move and then they start they don't see the custard crooked. that they did better or even fishline if you leave it on here it won't see them. remember that remember you used to do this. and there are your mom always taking pants home we travel with cans back home yeah just because it's. there is no matter where you come from. i mean it's just a different life for me four six eight ten twelve fourteen sixteen eighteen ok. time to pay and just the knowledge you need to have takes a lifetime to acquire so when you're talking to an elder it's just like opening up an encyclopedia but the only good so don't get caught or what are these are these

are just small prints not i use birch to stroke. the kind early in the spring and let it so don't be so strong among the rocks on the floor want to hear how do you start it so that it smoking and not a fire i still haven't learned this art i was teaching you how to play. which was rough for the time you know. you just feel like such a so they so good. i would die very short about. someone asked me answer. this is blowflies see the eggs too only got a knife to take yeah. so i just smash them yeah and smash i think just a couple more hours. of the songs of official the other day and they kept the

fins on because they said that the weight of the top official of the eskimos in the indians do things differently. and of course see us indians think we know better but. that's just. the way things are. these two villages are sort of at the interface of two different tribes one is you play people in the other. you know for. life at least you know. what percentage of knew him and is native. you got to say at least nineteen i guess is maybe ninety yeah but at least there is just you know maybe ten people here that might not be and what is the population of. about one hundred eighty and right now. we're just kind of having some problems with jobs but we have

a lot of our people here in new healing working and they're working peple right now . is this proposed copper gold and molybdenum mine that would if approved to be located less than twenty miles away from million not. it's really valuable they could generate between three hundred and five hundred billion u.s. dollars over its lifetime and provide jobs for the community. but it could also pose serious threats to the ecosystem. if it's pollutants got into the surrounding area they could possibly ruin the salmon run in a way of life that has been around for millennia. to try if we have a contract with pavel they're doing the studies here this summer it's providing jobs for people at shark term it might end next week and anonymous so it's just like everybody wants to work because this is the only place to make

the money right now when they're not here it's pretty bleak they want them to be around want right now the tribe is fish is important to our culture fish it's important for us to you know provide fire family but we still have to work what other way are we going to survive you know we can't pick up our families and move to h.r. or wherever the jobs are and we don't want to. put up people. support sufficiently. so you think coming up for fifteen years of a fifteen year why do you keep coming up. it's so beautiful work around it's so many places to go and different style of fish and every place. we've got it was. already. there. will be the last one so

funny how fishing can be so important to so many people but the way that it's important and so radically different. there might be people who come up here every single summer for twenty five years not really know a local name. of the place a huge part of their life. your story i guess thanks for going to talk to me oh you're welcome how long have you been in the sports fishing and hunting industry nguyen no i started in the mid eighty's and i've been doing that pretty much sense for years and that was the best kept secret there was only a handful of lodges in the area well the word finally got out couldn't be kept secret lodges have gotten so exclusive with the flying. very

personalized high end foods and everything a fishing trip at a premier a lodge in the syria today the nine thousand dollars for a week might have been you know of three or four thousand dollars in the mid eighty's they want the the big money people and they get it what's the relationship between. lodges and the local community you know i think historically there was a lot of animosity between locals and that are struggling to make ends meet and then these high and rich lodge owners that come in for four months make a bunch of money. but it's gotten a lot better over the years to try to hire more locals and involve the community more and i've seen it what is the argument that lodge owner will give for not hiring locals because it seems like that would be cheaper than flying entire stuff

in to the bloods every season i don't know if i'm know it absolutely makes nothing but sons i mean they could they can go catch fish for themselves and hunt never thing but it's a whole different thing being a guide for paying guests local natives they were raised to survive to be a sports fishing somebody that you brought in you know what they're doing every minute of the day they're not out drinking or getting in trouble the local person that works here might crashes and break his ankle and can't come to work tomorrow somebody is thing at the lodge isn't going to do that. so since abuse is quite foreign to me having grown up in qatar where drinking is not part of the culture. but it is a familiar story having gone back to alaska year after year and has definitely

affected my family here. i think it's one of those things that can be quite baffling if you don't look at the bigger picture. when there's no job to look forward to is you know. we haven't really heard so much about that drugs but we've heard you know they're here everybody that i know that's work and they have a reason to get up a whole it's making them feel better and they're doing something and not just staying home watching t.v. or you know not doing anything that's also the scary thing is having no law enforcement is here yes what do you do if you need it to i mean well we have would call we have an eight hundred number and he does respond he comes in from myself so many hours away and that's like the next like the next morning. but we had to respond to a couple homes and we don't go by ourselves. of

work for the social service department. that's called the indian child welfare act . some helping our tribal enroll members that are. having trouble with substance abuse something i don't have a cheaper or so they call us for everything that happens like of somebody who's junk and i'm driving they call us a somebody who's. feiten they call us i mean it doesn't happen that often but when it does you know where they call us first. and majority of the time it's just my sister and i that run off to the horses what is it like working on

this issue which can be a sensitive and sort of a small community it's very hard time related to everybody here it's like one of the worst jobs in the village because they blame you first because you're the first one to respond. doesn't necessarily need to be at numbers but how. widespread is. the issue in terms of substance abuse in this community. for alcohol abuse that's pretty i like when i was younger i every time i came back oh you know it's time to have a shot a shot i've been to over for about six years now and that's a whole different world for me. just that people are sent out of their communities for treatment like that must also be difficult right like

i said this is a very small community that's come a makes them feel ashamed of themselves that they had to leave that mandy. thank you. hate violence revenge an increasingly alienated generation is finding new outlets to vent its anger. in a new series al-jazeera takes an unflinching know at the end of radicalized organizations to young people revealing their inner workings and the often brutal consequences for those drawn into their extreme ideologies radicalized the youth coming soon on al-jazeera eradicating leprosy in cambodia relies on education and treatment in equal measure on. the embody early you know disability yet we

of bullying and said its tactics were making washington more isolated internationally we have the toughest sanctions ever imposed but on oil we want to go a little bit slower because i don't want to drive the oil prices in the world this has nothing to do with the red i don't want to drive the oil prices in the world so i'm not looking to be a great hero and bring it down to zero immediately i could get the iran oil down to zero immediately but it would cause a shock to the market i don't want to lift oil prices turkey's newspaper is reporting that members of a saudi team center stumble to investigate the murder of journalist jamal khashoggi focused instead on removing evidence the publication claims experts on chemicals and toxicology are among the saudi team that arrive nine days after the assassination in while the u.n. human rights council in geneva has been reviewing the actions of saudi arabia and

stay with us out there a correspondent continues next hour the news after you after that thanks for watching. so very going to end then which is the liam and helen and dalton i like to call it was started by a few of the residents here and now powers three villages around. it also provide some of the only steady jobs in the area and in the winter in alaska it can be so cold that not having heating can be really dangerous having some form of electricity is really important and going to make it up that's when quite a few years just been up here yeah that's the thing just work keeps getting in the way that darn work i go you want making a living. it really sucks. tell you get the paycheck

a lot of people look at a hydroelectric plant and think all that's super cool you're getting free electricity going over the falls how nice they don't see how hard of work it is sometimes to keep it going you know. they don't see the two o'clock in the morning when the turban shuts down earth one goes down they both go down and to keep from burning diesel fuel we saddle up and head up there and figure it out. how much do still of this plant save every year. if we were on full diesel power we'd be burning about a quarter of a million gallons a year so from two hundred fifty thousand to three thousand to four thousand gallons yeah in a year. amazing how many people those like to call up employ one two three four for a little. small but mighty. so this is the intake. all

the water comes through here how big is the tube i want to say it's like four feet people came up here biologists to make sure that it wasn't harming any of the bottom like the fish of course i think there should be a lot more news in the world because we have a lot of water and instead of using whatever nuclear power and diesel and coal and all that stuff which is you know very polluting as you know it would be nice to use stuff like this. i'm pretty proud. i like my job like that it's hydro it's our earth friendly. most natives we take care of the earth take care where we're from take care of the fish in the water. being able to do that and help my people. i'm very proud to be able to work here. there's a lot of people here that were born and raised here and don't want to leave you know i've lived in hawaii i lived in the states i've lived in anchorage. why would

you want to live anywhere else. there are parts about native culture that i don't really know about yet but i also don't think that's an uncommon thing and i'm trying to learn more every summer and here's my sewing room this is my happy place in the wintertime my mom did lead a hand sewing this is what she used to do. is this what is the calfskin this is the part that would be the hardest because she used to use are

some nail and her teeth. how do you harden the other like this is so you don't can them so much that they get soft. they pretty who wears clothes box most women around here i feel like it's not just like a big thing or done a nothing or it's yeah i think all of the people pretty much everyone in alaska wears and so i've always wanted a close marker doesn't know if. all. everyone that want to spark even half the herbs your mom's from here you can wear to and if you have a sweater like a loose wetter you could bring it to me and i can make one really yeah. or the pick up some fabric ok. where to

go up i was actually born and raised a question river it's my mom used to save salted eggs for fishing because our ice in the winter when i. did dog started barking we had it my dad had a dog. it was like to clock in the morning no i was so scared my teeth dirty chattering me mom she just has to bear down the beach was eating my mom's arm so did the eggs my dad god is ready for and he killed her bear and then when i was twelve we moved over here. the cuffs will be kind of loose it might tap. here it. chip can present pink hair. so beautiful.

thank you yeah. ok here you go. and search faded here and i should have to stand before you leave the front not only looking out. my gramma grew up with her native language until she was about six but then she lost it and there aren't many native speakers left here the village is now fighting to get back its language and dance but there's still a lot of pain i think when it comes to what was lost. when you hear someone speaking a language that's dying it just feels so beautiful because it's so rare.

true she names and he's made you name i asked. and you just speak you pick. you're still speak you pick yes you do you speak at work. my grandkids see i born with it and i never forget my land with. and when i went to school i did no one in the assured. they knew she needed word and then what happened were. every time you may need you in my native language they teach you you say stand me right by her

just to speak my own language. it will not because we are language is only english here we did leave a note in your how we used. i get tired of standing beside the teacher in a corner one day just saying and i'm not going to try to ever you may need me for language again and i never did i even i could standing by teaching more. and some kids take it by a yardstick just to you sure are native language yes you're laughing but it seems.

barfing but it seems quite sad. i never see your kind of stand i didn't see that when i was growing up father through he said it to us. devils who are. no no good for church russian orthodox. before they started. when would they do it or when gay got or. you know like like car no no just like that if you don't know what tape. we're going to watch tape that having over a whole year with teams doing very little under. two people pay more to have what people are.

coming in. are you know are you in there yes i mean very. well yes. people are not here anymore until. you see sheen now dears hardly you know people and gay have been. was.

one. of washing lot of young people stay or come back even if it is difficult because this is their home and there's just a different priority here. that. the past year been for the last one and. you know much as one can. say that she grew into my job when she started walking ten months. sure remember freeplay think of the running away all right i think i remember one summer

time. there were a couple school this. last two or three years before. the resounding. because those proved. too stressful. we just couldn't do more. than interrupt i've told. them i don't know. i mean my jobs permanently is just only four hours and the rest. i don't find. full time job parenting i think you ever will. as. i don't really like to see really. too many people. only smiles we. are. trying got pregnant with

her and had her wasn't like limited to what i can do. or die. like honey it's and provides for. small family. gets would so howard to feel if this place was gone. probably sad because its owner grew up and my. an hour just. home. for the hunger.

kids here are encouraged to go away to college but their families also hope that they come back home. and if you go to college there's a chance that your classroom will be larger than your entire village that you grew up in which can be really difficult you know for long. so says he's working at public. helicopter. so after you graduate oh you're ok you think you are after you graduate. i fired to go to college and all right now i want to. wildlife biology if you want to try something new why don't you go to a boarding school like a disco or in a city like in

a city i kind of like well ok good. or don't you like being in the city i don't know it's just too busy for me and i'm always like well in the quiet. you can't really do this. you know i do have a sense of belonging in terms of people. but i'm sort of envious of people

who feel like they're and and i believe without question belong to a place someone told me that you moved away. yeah we went to alabama. i wasn't i didn't like it there's a big village yeah but how many. about seven hundred people. what did you miss most from here. the wider the wider clearer that's really pretty here are you working right now now i don't think there's any job so our only. and i'm my guests. it's everybody got a job but they have their long tired because some of my family members work there i don't want to go up against them. i seen that my nothing that

god my. son what it did. and i'm just scared to tap. out so much just. i'd rather have no trap than kill. i'm going to poem and tomorrow. i'm nervous. and just want to make sure the community has questions directly to the mind. i just hope we all have a clear understanding of. what might be in store for us. good or bad.

i think we're going to go over on this side right yeah. but that's what that was going to be today but i will hit up to the part of our made up a look at our stuff and pretty much every day every trip to ground at alaska is. pretty beautiful and i tell it as a day i suspect one of the arguments to last to becoming a state if i could if i was howard but to. say we are sixty five million acres.

be able to support itself economically so the challenge for a laugh how do we need to have an economy. that's a state that's balanced with step with the environment around. here what type of cell or a. truck along on the top of the other hill or you're out here well if it's got a buyer area i think people are going through. the pebble. can you talk about what's under under our feet yep under our feet there's a world class discovery of copper gold a lived in the silver rhenium and palladium many other states they have access to rail or power or roads we have none of that here yet the product from where you acquire it to to the place where you can transport it to market is a big deal talking about portage room yeah so one bridge crossing over upper to lara that then extends down to the north shore of elite on the lake will have a ferry terminal will be able to load the concentrated minerals onto icebreaking

ferry transport across the lake to be along to it will have one crossing there but yeah it will go kind of around till patel are because tonic is the spawning area percent and it just happens to have more potential sockeye productivity than. the other to drainage is also for us is how do we get sufficient energy brought in so that we can run our facilities on our case for what he had about one hundred eighty mile natural gas pipeline that wall that provide the power for a power plant here can generate electricity to support all of our our infrastructure out here it's a great challenge to ask people to. look around them and identify the minerals that they use so i to use the prop of the i phone fifty two different minerals that i followed at a couple subpar. the

frustrating part of the tour is like where all the fault. you know there's a real problem. in the mines and. the mining is. a symptom of some problem with the way we approach the land the way that we consume things. mike talks a lot about. being an economic necessity i also think this erna can hike necessity living off the land is a necessity of here. we have fundamental issues with a relationship to the planet there's been lots of instances that i've seen where indigenous communities just have a better model. just because it might be a smaller number of people it doesn't make it

a less valid way of life. i do really care about this place in my family's home here about the end of the day i am also another person that comes here during the summer and leaves. so feel i can take the not really sure what i can. see there the eggs are kind of loose so when we start cooking and we just cool this stuff off. i make my grandma happy when i come back i help her affairs so that makes me feel like i belong in that way. males. that are so sassy and just not. all right. really but this is a good thing for her. you know how can. she pick the covers oh i

go oh my gosh that's beautiful why don't i feel like i'm going to cry. it's so pretty you know a wall will look at that. and i'm biased but this is the produce cost but. because you're. going to try to. love a. grad like you how much oil you. you can and we can trade for our brick here and you said you had fabric over to the safe called the soup which is like a traditional market and they have a bunch of. different fabrics their stuff so yeah yeah you can prepare it for a brick experiment i mean we have a fun project to do back in doha. but.

i feel like if you give yourself permission to care about a place you also need to give yourself permission to belong to a place and i have a hard time doing that. but i also know what it's like to be repeatedly drawn to somewhere to love a community and a people and to want to honor their way of life. and maybe i can draw others into this place to. a journey of personal discovery about how the soviet rule has shaped the present day georgia if you people who shoot your past you will never have a future in government buildings and then monuments they seem to inspire indoors all wisdom in your own people they are small algis there is time and eventually meets a examines the cultural influences of the soviet union al-jazeera correspondent the

we've got the rain clouds gathering into central and southern parts of australia the moment you see this long line of cloud coming right out of the interior down into the southeastern corner so they've got some rain making its way across south australia just eighteen celsius rather late nineteen degrees for melbourne the head of that is still warm sydney the thirty degrees celsius thirty five for brisbane killed a fresher air comes back in across the southwest though perth at around sixteen degrees a southerly wind will pick up to around twenty by the time we come towards the end by wednesday look at that rain makes its way right down into the southeastern corner only fifteen there for adelaide and for melbourne but much needed rain coming in across a good part of victoria into new south wales that rain will be welcome twenty six celsius there for sydney and eventually that rainfall will make its way towards south island of new zealand that a bit of cloud just easing its way into the far south of new zealand then at the moment and as we go on through were choose day is find it dry eighteen celsius in

christchurch temperatures pick up by where to stay twenty four degrees but that rain is talking on the door much from new zealand they will be fired rubber plenty of sunshine dry with a good deal of sunshine searing to good parts of japan and it stays that way over the next couple of days. the strength of al jazeera is that because we have such an extensive network people would come to us and actually share information with a team into. this is zero. this is the al jazeera news hour live from london coming up defiance from iran as the u.s. imposes the toughest sanctions to date targeting the country's oil and financial

sectors. turkish media suggests a saudi team sent to istanbul to investigate the killing of janice jamal khashoggi focused instead on removing evidence. that millions of americans are being denied the right to vote in the midterm elections when minorities are most affected. and. paving the way from over to in the year one better more later in the program. the u.s. is calling the sanctions against iran its toughest so far tehran has accused washington of bullying and said its tactics were backfiring by isolating the u.s. internationally the measures target iran's oil and financial sectors that president

trump said the u.s. was deliberately taking things slowly on oil. we have the toughest sanctions ever imposed but on oil we want to go a little bit slower because i don't want to drive the oil prices in the world this has nothing to do with the rand i don't want to drive the oil prices in the world so i'm not looking to be a great hero and bring it down to zero immediately i could get the iran oil down to zero immediately but it would cause a shock to the market i don't want to lift oil prices are different attitude james bays has more from washington d.c. . the message the treasury secretary and the secretary of state wanted to send was that the sanctions lifted when the u.s. during the obama administration joined other international partners in the twenty fifteen iran nuclear deal a rule now back in place but if you read the small print that's not exactly the case some of the iranian nuclear facilities have been given waivers so they can

still work producing nuclear energy for civilian use the trumpet ministration wants all countries to stop importing iranian oil but for now secretary of state might compost says age nations who get temporary waivers the u.s. will be granting these exemptions to china india italy greece japan south korea taiwan and turkey the two cabinet secretaries said they'd keep a laser focus on iran but why single out just one country in the region james face from al jazeera english you talk about the destabilizing behavior of iran in the region how does that differ from the bad behavior of saudi arabia. so let me just go through the list underwriting lebanese hezbollah presents a threat to united states of america and to israel underwriting the hoodies and yemen causing an enormous conflict to take place there in that country the efforts in iraq to undermine the iraqi government funding shia militias that are not the best interests of the iraqi people their efforts and syria the list goes on the

difference in behavior between those two countries is remarkable. that on some perhaps needs some point checking the u.n. says there's no evidence iran has recently supplied the who feeds with weapons while the saudi led campaign has been responsible for the majority of civilian deaths in yemen saudi arabia certainly has its own destabilizing role in the region just look at the blockade of counts and if you are criticizing iran for its human rights then saudis appalling record also needs to be scrutinized particularly in the light of the murder of jamal khashoggi in istanbul james by zero washington. iran's president says it will be business as usual for his country in a defiant address to the nation has some rouhani said the era of simply saying death to america was over and the time had come to take practical steps to make the

u.s. fair ron so mr avi has more from tehran. one of the reasons president donald trump gave to pull out of the twenty fifty nuclear deal and reimpose sanctions on iran was the country's growing military influence in the middle east. and their ballistic missiles program. so it was perhaps not a coincidence that iranian scheduled one of their largest military exercises of the year on the same day as u.s. sanctions kicked back in. multiple air defense units took part in war games spanning half a million square kilometers across the country. and as the missiles took flight on the ground the iranian president lobbed insults at the american president. pattern was by our neighbor girl scout that i don't think any other administration in the history of the united states has been as opposed to the law and international treaties i've not seen any administration in the white house as racist as these people and you cannot expect anything else from them in

a speech to his recently shaken up economic team rouhani laid out a broad plan for the future come what may iran will sell oil and will break u.s. sanctions in the face of american threats iranians put their faith in the basic principle of supply and demand i believe the sanction was. but that they couldn't sanction is not the. sudden need they had some think in their mind and then put sanctions and you give me the supply side you cannot expect the pres good though. it is simple price goes up iran has used unmarked ships to sell oil in international waters traded oil using the barter system and rouhani has also floated the idea of selling oil in alternative currencies to the u.s. dollar iran is also counting on a european bypass to the american banking system but months of promises and public

support by the european union have not led to practical solutions behind closed doors some iranians are asking if that was the plan all along despite rouhani is insistence that european support is a big deal for iran keeping iran's trust will not be the only challenge for europe to keep iran in the nuclear deal with american sanctions at full strength and more said to be on the way they'll also have to figure out how to turn the temperature down between hawks and to her own and washington us ravi old is here at the. one here has come up with a way to facilitate payments for a rainy and exports and offset the impact of u.s. sanctions but some experts warn it may not be enough to persuade large companies to continue operating in iran and their reports from paris. since president trump's announcement in may that the u.s. would reimpose sanctions on iran european leaders have been scrambling for ways to bypass them and keep the twenty fifteen nuclear deal alive in september the e.u.

finally came up with a plan a new payment mechanism allowing european companies to trade with tehran and avoid u.s. penalties the but disciplines welcomed practical proposals to month tain and develop payment channels not i believe the initiative to establish a special therapist vehicle to facilitate payments related to a dance exports including oil and imports companies violating sanctions could be cut from the powerful u.s. financial system it's a risk that most european multinationals don't want to take french companies to town and france and citron have begun shutting their brain operations german car maker dana is also pulling out along with british airways it's not yet clear how the e.u.'s new payment mechanism would work it could be a barter system or it could be a new e.u. backed financial body set up to deal with transactions between europe and tehran

either way some analysts say it may not be enough to make big multinational fight hotel reconsider doing business with iran companies like to order companies are fruit of your essential stock i don't think they're going to take the risk of brain or from iraq so it doesn't sort of i would say ninety percent of the problems due to the recession the plan may be flawed but it sends a political signal to washington and tehran europe is determined to maintain the accord even thorough relations between some european countries and iran have to tear aerated in october danish officials said they prevented a planned iranian attack on opponents in denmark a few weeks earlier france's government said that they had four. a similar plot their efforts to preserve this accord but it's more about maintaining cordial diplomatic ties the problem is that relations are not good right now there is no french investor in the rand or

a range of investor in france and then we have the ledger and in proton opponents invalid count and the one in denmark trump hopes u.s. sanctions will force take brawn into a new deal but so far iran says it won't renegotiate with e.u. leaders openly defying washington over the issue if he a cool collapses it would be a crushing blow to europe's credibility with sasha butler al jazeera paris trita parsi is the founder and president of the national iranian american council who joins us now from washington d.c. thanks for being with us as we now have president trump saying he deliberately going slow on the oil sanctions to avoid an oil shock how effective do you think this action will be given that and also given the exemptions for eight countries i mean many ways it's an indication of the failure of the trump instructions prosector's their promise to get down to zero by november now he's saying that he's take going to take it slow and get down to zero later on i doubt that very much it

does show that the likelihood of being able to truly strangulate the economy of iran from the outside is much easier said than done having said that this is still going to be very very painful for the iranian economy and the brunt of the pain is going to be felt by the population who do not have the same capacity as the government itself to protect them insulate themselves from these sanctions what about the the line from iran that this president saying to be business as usual so you think that his bluster is actually going to make quite a big difference for any sanctions. it is going to make a difference i do believe that the iranians believe that most of the pain and most of the impact has already come in this preparation period up until november fifth and that whatever will come now is actually going to be less than many had expected but i think part of the reason why the iranians are confident is because i think they've calculated that whatever pressure trump can put on them they can withstand it and their game plan is to wait trump out and see what will happen in the twenty

twenty alexion and then hopefully see the united states come back to its senses and try to find a way to re entered the agreement would rather that the aspects of the kind of the nuclear thing i mean we've had the state department saying on monday that they will allow nonproliferation civil nuclear project iraq to share and for to iran quote under the strictest scrutiny how different is this approach to these kind of things from what you are nuclear deal was supposed to achieve that they pulled out of whatever to doing now is not in any way shape or form going to be as effective as a nuclear deal because the nuclear deal had the involvement of the international buy in of the entire security council this is the united states essentially strong arming the entire rest of the world and as your package made clear most of these sanctions are actually going to be affecting european companies this is the trumpet mr ation saying that their word is a.
