a runoff presidential election it could lead to the 1st peaceful transfer of power in decades plus. i'm natasha paris where the french television industry has much to celebrate will. be coming to local successes. we begin this news hour with efforts to revive the 2015 iran nuclear deal iranian officials are saying their talks with the head of the un's nuclear watchdog have been fruitful. cross' visit comes on the day of a deadline set by the iranian parliament for the u.s. to lift economic sanctions iran has in the past said it could suspend some inspections and take other measures if those sanctions are not removed the iran's

foreign minister says ending the checks is not a violation of the agreement that all steps taken since the nuclear agreement are reversible. nothing has changed by dint claims that trump a policy of maximum pressure was maximum pavia being can also just recently said that that policy failed but for all practical purposes there pursuing the same policy they haven't changed the u.s. has now relaxed some of the restrictions imposed by the trumpet ministration and president joe biden says he's willing to rejoin efforts by european powers to salvage the nuclear deal but iran says it's studying those for us mike hanna joins us now from washington d.c. so my 1st thought how the words of the foreign minister they're likely to go down in washington d.c. . well obviously d.c.

watching very closely the developments in the course of the day with the international atomic energy agency inspectors there but certainly the is on the surface of the stalemate underway the biden administration continuing to insist that iran must return to the terms of the 2015 deal before it resumes negotiations in terms of lifting sanctions as you heard iran says it will not it will want sanctions lifted before it enters any form of negotiation so on the surface of it it's intractable but the reality is that president biden has indicated that the routine wants to follow through europe he wants negotiations to resume under the aegis of the european union together with the other partners in that 2015 deal this he stated very clearly in terms of seeing the european union as the overarching umbrella of a resumption of negotiations so at this stage it would appear the biden administration

wants to go the multilateral route to restore the relationship rather than do it on a unilateral basis of negotiations and me we've also got u.s. officials talking about a review of policy towards iran neighbor iraq wants going on there. well this is a very interesting aspect and it's part of this whole emerging diplomacy of the biden administration now the secretary of state tony blinken has confirmed that his department is reviewing the relationship with iraq and the nature of that particular relationship now included in that could possibly be a rip you off the sanctions that the trump administration imposed on the amount of energy for example that iran could buy from iran part of being consumed you couldn't pull the revision on that and lifting the level of energy resources that

iraq could buy from iran now what this would do is so big number of things number one it would throw an olive leaf towards iran without doing so directly it is doing so through iraq assisting iraq it's this kind of somewhat come through to permit seat that is fascinating as one watches the bite in the ministration start formulating a new policy based on the policy of the past remembering as well that joe biden himself was vice president during the drawing up of that 2050 nuclear deal and an attempt to reset the u.s. presence in iraq all right thanks so much mike hanna. is in toronto with more on the meeting there. the details of the meetings that were held this morning and this afternoon in the capital are yet to be released there is a press conference that will be held in vienna later on this evening where the director general of the i.a.e.a.

will lay out the details of what actually took place during those meetings but as far as we understand it he met with the head of iran's atomic energy organization. cell here early this morning in the is also met with iran's foreign minister mohammad javad zarif they are discussing the issue at their meetings has been about the details of what will happen to those i inspect ours in the coming months after tuesday's deadline we have heard from the u.s. secretary of state anthony blinken who said the path to diplomacy still very much open but for the rain ians it's a very cut and dried matter they want the united states to lift those sanctions imposed on iran since leaving the nuclear deal and 20 we heard from the foreign minister zarif today who said that that has cost iran a trillion dollars so far they want those sanctions relieved 1st then the u.s. can sit down at the negotiating table with iran to discuss how they can come back into the nuclear deal this is what iran wants whether or not the united states is

willing to do that is a different question but for iran this point is not negotiable in the coming months before this administration leaves office in june. day after the worst violence against men miles military coup earlier this month protest as a return to the streets in their thousands soldiers fired tear gas and live rounds killing 2 people and injuring dozens more on saturday tony chang now. protesters a back on the streets of mandalay less than 24 hours after the security services shot 2 dead and injured many more occupying an important intersection in the city the message is clear it will not back down footage that has emerged overnight suggest this was a well planned and sustained crackdown not a temporary lapse in discipline building showing the scars of live rounds that were liberally used. the soldiers beat and shot my husband and others he was

standing on the side and watching the protests but the soldiers took him away. and while the police took the lead it appears it was the military that were in charge soldiers from the 33rd light infantry is said to be in command the division known for its panel and crackdowns on ethnic unrest. and just city yang gone the bloodshed in mandalay appeared to have hardened the result of those protesting against the coup. you know many people died yesterday we protested peacefully but people have to die the general wants to stop us from coming out onto the streets so they strongly respond to us we the people want to accept their own future oppression and we will continue to fight. and calls for the international community to intervene not demanding it be on the numbers of people increase today and we will not stop we will continue to walk to our go democracy we want international countries to take more severe action than effective sanctions. in the capital now

the u.k. meanwhile says it's considering taking further action against those who it says are crushing democracy and the e.u. is called on the military to end its action against civilians its foreign affairs council is expected to discuss it when it meets on monday tom andrews is the un special rapporteur on human rights in may and maher told us it's likely the crackdown will get worse. this military is capable of just about anything we've seen and massacre protesters in the past in street street they've killed monks in saffron robes protesting and of course we've seen what they're capable of doing with the ethnic minorities including the inga ethnic lines so this is a very dangerous situation and the nightmare is made even. more frightening by the fact that they are now deploying these army troops these these deployments sort of

in this case the 33rd light infantry division this was the very division that is accused of and was actually involved we know in massacres against the regime or ethnic minority tremendous atrocities so now these soldiers are being deployed from the coastal areas and from the the areas like rakhine state in the north into these ribbon areas and to confront these these protesters who are peaceful protesters there's no question about that people in asia are all voting to choose the next president in a runoff election outgoing president mohamad or so food was voted in the 2nd round of polling after the 1st attempt failed to find a successor it paves the way phoenicia as 1st peaceful handover of power in decades . it's decision day this year from a list of 30 candidates the choice for 7 and a half 1000000 voters is now not only too familiar faces or the country's political

landscape how much does i'm a former minister if the ruling party candidate he pulled the most votes in the 1st round of presidential election last year with 39.3 percent of the vote. he's opponent moment as mine came a distant 2nd with less than half the votes of the front runner the former prime minister and president is looking to come back to a job he left 25 years ago. the president was the man in the last 10 years my mind it was mine is the only opposition candidate who was not collaborated with the ruling p n.d.s. the others did it several times all big names in the jail politics gave it one time or another gone into some form of alliance with the liberal in party. but whoever wins will need to form a coalition to govern that looks a lot easier for the ruling party that won the most seats in parliament in december but 6 short of a working majority. they are here has only 7 seats in the 107 to unseat parliament

so head of sunday's vote they have been negotiations between the 2 candidates and smaller parties to form a coalition the election commission says it expects the election to be conducted smoothly but there are fears of attacks by armed groups in some areas in december the country missed the opportunity to produce a president in the 1st round of voting but is still on course to mark a historic milestone sunday's vote is expected to lead to the 1st peaceful transition of power from one civilian government to another in these year. but whoever wins will face don't think challengers poverty made worse by covered 1000 years on the rice use unemployment is high so also is a level of illiteracy but more warry is the violence of the borders in the west boko haram has raided many communities and along the border with mali and broken up fossil groups allied with iceland al-qaeda attacking civilian and military targets
