for the entire world the european union investment in nonproliferation continues to be a top priority for us so far we have seen iran fully compliant with all its nuclear related commitments frustration is growing among leaders with being caught between the u.s. and iran as tensions on both sides mount before the summit the e.u. rejected an ultimatum from tehran giving european powers sixty days to come up with a plan to shield iran's economy from the impact of u.s. sanctions in a statement they said we strongly urge iran to continue to implement its commitments under the j c p o a in full as it is done until now and to refrain from any escalatory steps we reject all. the statement also criticized the u.s. for imposing sanctions on iran and pulling out of the deal one year ago european powers have been battling to save the twenty fifteen deal they want a payment system which allows for some trade between iran and the european union to

so far is limited to only humanitarian items things like medicine and food and it's failed to persuade multinationals to resume trade with iran and risk u.s. penalties so unless e.u. leaders come up with some new solutions some say that tehran might decide that the deal is simply not worth saving. what europe needs to do is first approach the remaining. participants russia and china and urge them to take steps commensurate with what europe is doing but also they need to to find solidarity with aliments in the united states who can push back on this new conservatism that is hell bent on you know seeing this city or fail and potentially making war more possible france's defense minister said that if iran breaks the deal the e.u. could impose sanctions european powers could be gambling on iran not want to risk more damage to their economy or lose strategic allies as the stakes are raised on all sides the future the twenty fifteen

a court looks increasingly fragile. al-jazeera paris with the u.s. deputy assistant secretary for arabian gulf. so the military conflict with iran is not the intention of the administration. the administration's been very clear and you know secretary powell laid out our twelve point plan. and no one would be happier than we would if iran were to rejoin the community of nations this build up that we're doing now the show of force is to demonstrate our resolve in the face of escalation by the iranians it's to respond to that it's not to trigger a war a military conflict nobody in our administration wants to do that. but we are we are prepared and our allies will be prepared. well still ahead here and others are opposition politicians in venezuela seek sanctuary in foreign embassies fearing arrest. eva bangs on

missing and murdered indigenous women. on al-jazeera are still searching it's. still looking. ahead again you watch al-jazeera a reminder about top stories u.s. and chinese negotiators will hold another round of talks on friday to try to avert a wider trade war the u.s. is preparing to increase tariffs on hundreds of billions of dollars worth of goods and water from china. north korean leader kim jong il and has overseen a second missile test in under a week it'll just common made a stalemate nuclear talks with the united states. their own foreign minister says

the european union should uphold its obligations under the two thousand and fifteen nuclear deal and that includes normalizing economic ties with terror on the new leaders earlier rejected iran's sixty day ultimatum to protect it from u.s. sanctions. the cia has warned friends and colleagues of murdered journalist marcus oh gee that potential targets of the saudi government reports by time magazine says three people have been given security briefings in recent weeks that include activists baghdad. living in norway and abilities in canada a third person is in the in the united states but not to be named security services warned that they may be targeted for continuing because soldiers calls for reform in saudi arabia. now a co-founder of facebook who worked with c.e.o. mark zuckerberg in the social media giant early days has become the latest person

to call for the platform to be broken up and regulated in a piece in the new york times chris hughes says has too much power he points to facebook's acquisition of whatsapp and instagram to show the tech for them now holds its social media monopoly he goes on to list facebook's problems including what he calls sloppy privacy practices and its inability to stop the spreading of misinformation and fringe political views let's take a closer look at what chris hughes wrote he says the united states is a nation with a tradition of reigning in monopolies no matter how well intentioned the leaders of these companies may be modest power is unprecedented and un-american hughes adds that the government must hold market accountable and accuses politicians of marveling at facebook's explosive growth and overlooking their responsibility to ensure that americans are protected and markets are competitive and even gets more personal saying quote mark is a good person but i'm angry that his focus on growth led him to sacrifice security

and civility for clicks or facebook's vice president of global affairs and communications that's nick clegg he responded by saying facebook accept with success comes accountability but you don't enforce accountability by calling for the breakup of a successful american company all right let's take this on we can speak now to mitch delts who's an attorney at the digital rights group the electronic frontier foundation joins us live now from san francisco is all very interesting pretty strong stuff this isn't it so sacrificing security and civility for clicks is what he says what he reckons. i think that's absolutely right the engine of competition and innovation has stalled somewhat with facebook and the similarly enormous technology platforms and that's a problem for many of the reasons that mr hughes said and so what about his

solution is calling for facebook to be broken up. we do need to get back to competition and forcing facebook to spin off instagram and what's happened to separate companies is one way to do that and probably one of the ingredients that has to be in the mix here another would be to simply leave room for other competitors to arise and take on facebook in its various functions that it provides whether that ends up being the snap chat or linked in or company based in another country that can come in and fulfill some of those functions what they need is the ability for people to migrate off of facebook onto other platforms bring their data with them keep their social graph and their connections to two friends and family with them when they move and then you have competition that will reign in some of these abuses what about the federal government then they have

a role to play and in regulating this they have a role particularly in setting a baseline of privacy expectations were really the same basic principles that are embodied in the. g.d.p. are the regulation in europe today the idea that people should be able to control what information is collected about them and what information is stored and be able to delete or retrieve or move that information that's a positive role for the government be it the u.s. federal government or states. where it gets more difficult and this is where i disagree with mr hughes is where he calls for the government to regulate speech to promote civility on facebook or a to decide which news is true and which news is false that's really a very dangerous power to give to the government just as it's dangerous in the

hands of facebook right if they if this is all very new territory is never when chris hughes and. we're rooming together and they come out with his consent and they had no idea what it is no idea in any way what impact this would have on the wall and it's become a runaway horse isn't it it sure has and i'm not sure anyone back in two thousand and seven or two thousand and four at the founding of facebook realized what influence it was that it would have at the time the dominant social network was my space and there were a lot of concern that my space would become a monopolist and that space of course that's gone now. but it's that sort of creative destruction that we need to get back to whether that well and what form that will take we don't know yet what we know is that facebook right now has the power to stop that from happening and that's a problem which just grates to get your perception on this we do appreciate that thanks very much indeed. iran is where an opposition politician has sought refuge

for closure and we tell each other what do you think she said it's my last. cry for help is she crazy. show. in body. and searching for answers why their family members were taken from them. but ones traveled across the u.s. to look at what's behind the crisis of indigenous women going missing. and ask what more can be done to stop it three one food good. food good news or what. i mean we're. the. we've come to camp in washington just south

of seattle. tina russell is showing us some of the places where she's going to search for her niece alyssa saying we had search parties do all this area over here this was because i actually had a dream i found her body back there why do you keep the fliers in the car and i never know when i need to make copies of meet somebody i'm talking about i'm listening on the most wired sometimes it's just a beach in a park me i'm not going to go to the beach and just walk along the beach right in a flier. and then when. it's been just over ten years since alyssa's family saw or heard from. she was twenty one and see of the red dress yes so i made this red dress and eventually going to put a charm on and put it on a skirt that i'm making for myself right now. knows you and that is the cutest good to ever and she did not like this but she did not appreciate my overjoyed because i heard tonight it was a kid out of time for the family back then what about alyssa's mother was dying

alyssa here in this is listless brother henri. we knew she wasn't going to be there much longer. i told the list talked to her on the phone she's like oh ok. i'm on my way. she and all the years her mom was sick sure was always there she would just go somewhere be. not show her. she might be late she. that was the last time barbara anyone from the fair. i spoke to her. a few days later alyssa's mother died and there was still no word from alyssa everything happened so fast my sister. alyssa is like there were so many blows we were just thrown into. turmoil

to any witnesses come forward there was a witness the said that they saw alyssa talking to somebody in a green truck with a place. that was one of the only leads that turned up after a listen was last heard from a witness said they saw her talking to a man in a green truck at this intersection. another important development in the case was that the camp police received a nine one one call from melissa's cell phone. the night when it turned out to. sergeant tim ford was one of the original detectives on melissa's case and heard the nine one one call it almost like sounded like now but the call cut and police were unable to pinpoint a location just really bothers anyone and i want to know when you listen to it you know when you're out you can hear her voice go. maybe go out and i remember going

to the current part of me that would never ever get any credible. evidence pointing to anybody and. with no answers from authorities the family including alyssa's little brother jim are are left wondering what happened last friday. and. if she's still alive or gone every time somebody they find a body every single time there's a body found on the news there's a pos huge even if it's literally like you're dead for a moment because you have to wonder is it a list i think of called the corner more than. anybody should in a lifetime. the family can only search wait and hope including alyssa's daughter who was only three years old when she went missing she had this big string of beads and she would hang it on the door selling case her mom came home she could hear the

beats rattle. we don't know what happened so we can feel. for relatives of people who go missing finding closure is often impossible. and stories like alyssa's are all too common in the united states where native americans go missing at a disproportionately high rate. two hours away from where alyssa was last seen is the optimum nation. very big. pain in her. words. but in this. place. how are the others. i mean his rights know i have

a problem here here we are not in a fit. and homemaker and i have this. letter from the army next. mr pratt her family member today this is about our community or family our loved one here. people are meeting here to raise money for the search efforts of risen to strong a thirty one year old mother of four who went missing and october fifth in the friendship members of the hotel. i'm going to be here for you. across the country indigenous communities have been trying to draw attention to cases like recent us do you want to give them anybody else here that's here and there are still there. but advocates and family members have started to raise

awareness about the high rates of violence the disproportionately impact indigenous communities. part of the problem is that government agencies don't have comprehensive data on how many people in the us are missing we can't solve problems we don't have. we can't prevent violence that we don't bother to pay attention to the needle casey is a doctoral student who has built a database to keep track of how many indigenous women in the u.s. and canada are missing and have been murdered whatever information we get is just kind of handed to us with no context or explanation and there's never any opportunity to include us in that data collection or analysis process so really what we're trying to do is find and gather as much information as possible to support times the native communities in making you know effective data driven

decisions on how to protect our women and girls anita's documented over eight hundred cases in the u.s. dating back to one thousand nine hundred seventy five percent of the cases of just from the past two decades people ask me a lot you know why or why or why are native women going missing or being murdered what's the reason and the reality is unfortunately there is no one reason i think the one unifying factor when being caught hell is them and i'm going call your occupation it teaches people whether you know native or non-native it teaches folks to undervalue native women to see us as less than human to see us as exotic and sexy and easy to use and abuse when you talk to family. are there any commonalities in their experiences with law enforcement i think you know why in general commonality that most families experience is that law enforcement. are not helpful especially in the beginning hours when it matters the most so whether someone has

gone missing or has been killed. usually there's very little communication with families families are often not made to feel as if they're being heard and i know that these bankers are missed. this is making making. personal. and made. this why wait. you know. every family who has somebody who's missing or who has experienced that at one point or another they know the scale and the magnitude of that crieff and confusion and frustration that comes with the process of trying to thirteen i became for a missing loved one and madge in that ten fold fifty fall of

a million like we don't know. the ripple effect is so much becker than any of us are even able to measure. in the backyard. i would hope there are people over. because she always used to be up there the matter what time of day it was my to be a better. the biggest one. we've always lived through and i'm back yard but that's where we would. we wouldn't hear her but we'd hear her. one of the most important things law enforcement can do when someone goes missing is to act quickly.

that didn't happen in the case of fourteen year old any scot on the northern cheyenne reservation in montana she was this place this ball of light that was just . the last time her mother paula spoke to her it was a friday evening last december and he called to ask if she could go to a basketball tournament and i told her no i mean you can't you grounded. and she said ok i'll be home in a bit tonight so last i heard. one hand he didn't come home. all of first took to social media to ask if anyone had seen her. five days later she and her husband nathan went to their local law enforcement the bureau of indian affairs or b i a a federal agency the reason why i was down there is reaching out to them is because i needed help to look oh where.
