quite remarkable that it's not just yangon or the big or been sent is receiving protests blocking the streets and down way down in the south and kitchens stay in many of the ethnic areas and in the bigger been sentenced to even in the capital naypyidaw which the city which has been principally designed by the military for effective crowd control but also contains mainly civil servants which indicates within the government itself there's a lot of support for these protests so i think the message is very clear and when you see the marches they're holding up to simple request a that the the military coup is reversed and b. that sense suchi in the other end of the lead is released and there's clearly an awful lot of support but it's not just the numbers of people on the streets it's the thing they're following a general strike that was called for by the protesters and that has been very widely respected across the country bringing businesses banks transport links

hospitals everything to a close and that's the thing i think they feel is going to put the most pressure on the military the military has tried to sell this to. so the snap back to the way things were with a. little kid inconvenience to ordinary people they've served the election new elections would happen relatively quickly and everything would return to normal at the moment manned mars effectively shut down well that's going to cause a huge amount of inconvenience to the people i think it's a sacrifice they're prepared to make if they can turn back the tide on the military coup. in other news iraq has called the outcome of an agreement with the un's nuclear watchdog a significant achievement the deal allows inspectors to continue monitoring tehran's nuclear facilities for up to 3 months but they'll be less access and no more snap inspections the i.a.e.a. chief traveled to iran this weekend where he met foreign minister john it's every for talks iran has been gradually breaching the terms of the 2050 nuclear deal

since the us withdrawal and re-impose sanctions in 2018 sale shah is a nuclear security specialist he says the latest agreement is a strategic move by iran. i think it's trying to rebalance the deal to be fair at the moment the economic quid pro quo that underpinned it namely through the sanctions relief that was promised as well as economic engagement that it should have been given access to that doesn't exist anymore so iran feels that its patients has slowly worn thin they waited a year before taking any operational steps the steps that they did take were technically reversible and they didn't touch any of the access that the agency had in iran until now i think that iran has been watching what the biden administration has done over the past month and largely the feeling in tehran is that this is a continuation of trump's maximum pressure campaign there were lots a lot of chatter among the europeans and the administration about whether or not

they would try to use this leverage to try to get more out of iran that plus you know relatively slow movement from washington has made iran feel like it doesn't to continue increasing its leverage and rebalance the deal indeed i think the deal is being unraveled but the thing is is that when we are unraveling it the core is missing the u.s. is not a participant the u.s. sanctions remain in place which is the core thing that the u.s. was meant to not do under the terms of the deal so although iran is taking steps away what the agency in iran announced today shows that there is still a willingness by iran as well as other parties involved to try to get it back to the original terms. while they run nuclear talks are on the agenda as e.u. foreign ministers meet in brussels let's bring in dominic kane in berlin for some excel. let's talk about the iran deal 1st what is the e.u.

the trumpet ministration several years ago now so clearly from the e.u. specific they want any kind of rapprochement any kind of dates and anything that can keep going keep the deal alive and then have to deal bolstad the e.u. is wants to be part of what else is on the agenda of the foreign ministers meeting . it's quite a lot of information that the e.u. ministers and the high commissioner you'll see a bottle will be going through one particular area of importance is the e.u.'s relationship with russia people will recall viewers will recall that mr burrell yourself but all the e.u. high commissioner visited moscow in the course of the past few weeks and it was the 1st such visits by somebody of his importance to the you for many years now he has been criticized by many people many members of the european parliament for what happened on that moscow visit but of more importance is the strategic relationship

between russia and the e.u. we know that hiker must again the foreign minister of germany prior to this meeting going into it this morning was talking about the possibility of sanctions being rules in insofar as the no felony case is concerned that unspecified individuals within russia which would be a ratcheting up of the pressure that the e.u. has tried to bring to bear on russia given what the e.u. believes the russian governmental involvement in the amount of case is russia's not the only thing on the agenda that the e.u. will be talking through the e.u. foreign affairs council talking through what it calls its strategic compass it will also be having there be an informal discussion in a digital format with the new secretary of state who is the blinken in the bite of the ministration he'll be speaking to e.u. foreign affairs foreign ministers in the course of this afternoon and one final
