wants to address that question not even brian hook who is the state department's special envoy for iranian matters he was asked about this by reporters overnight as they were leaving brussels headed for sochi russia and he would not comment on whom he thought might have been behind this attack but certainly there is concern here in washington as well as in the gulf about this kind of attack especially in light of the growing tensions between the united states and iran. the european union has told the u.s. section of state that it fully supports the international nuclear deal with iran and cold only us to show maximum restraint might compel you held talks with the you following ministers cheering an unexpected stop over in brussels the block's foreign policy chief expressed concern that here a strategy towards tyrannic carries grave risks last week iran announced it was

said that it is still the best bet for regional security and earlier in the day we heard from some foreign ministers including the german foreign minister said this deal is all about stopping iran from having nuclear weapons well more greeny also called on both sides on both tehran and washington to deescalate tensions she called for calm and she called on iran to continue complying with the 2015 deal she said that was extremely important so far iran had and as long as it does keep complying then the e.u. would support it ever since the u.s. pulled out of the deal and re impose sanctions on iran it has set up a payment system called instax which deals with some a certain amount of trade between the e.u. and iranian businesses but so far that's only for small and medium businesses so it doesn't mean it means basically the big multinationals in iraq iran and daimler

will be unlikely to resume trade with iran because they will not want to risk u.s. penalties nevertheless more greeny says in stocks which was supposed to be up and running in a few months may now be up and running in a few weeks and that perhaps is an indication that e.u. member states are serious about trying to look as if at least they are doing more. u.s. markets close sharply dine on monday as the trade war between the world's 2 largest economies escalates beijing has retaliated against america's new tariffs by imposing new treaties on u.s. imports white house correspondent kimberly hole reports. from electronics and appliances clothing and shampoos u.s. consumers are bracing for increased spending on products they use daily as a result of the hike of u.s. duties on chinese goods put in place last week by u.s. president trump our economy has been very powerful that despite the escalating trade tensions transposed to china is hurting and needs to negotiate
