2:03 pm
they are complying with the agreement and that they have given the europeans 60 days since the beginning of may and that. that is about to run out in about 3 weeks time meanwhile the spokesperson for iran's atomic energy agency announced today in iraq nuclear facility that iran will reach the limits of 300 kilograms of enrich uranium within the next 10 days that means that iran will exceed what it is greek to under the agreement of 2015 also that the heavy water limits that they have which is $130.00 tons of heavy water that will also be exceeded by the iranians within the next 2 and a half months now all this comes as the tensions in the region have increased between the united states and iran and that is something the rainy and officials are blaming on the fact that the united states withdrew from this nuclear agreement last year they're saying the europeans are not holding up their end of the deal because they are worried about american sanctions they will be facing if they do

2:06 pm
a more than city apply what happened in 1809 off the canon when a square moscow allowing police hope gun shoot was people and activists being sent to hospital that's really terrible it didn't make a beijing move didn't change its position 5 years ago what makes you think it's going to work not with the n.p.t. china extradition movement c'est foti have certain achievement to force the leader the evil lead to a halt suspended of course what we asked for is fully withdrawing but at least we did it 5 years ago we claim that we will be back and we achieved it and let the work you know that before the g 20 summit and during the chaos off to trade when he goes to asian the leader of hong kong carol i'm all right. became the political burden off president xi jinping if she goes she's going to be replaced possibly by somebody who's even more prob aging no matter who is the chief executive of hong kong is absolutely the puppet of calmness retreatment because all of them appointed
