this man that iran says is behind the attack on the transplant. well his name is reza creamy 43 year old reza karim in iran says he is the man suspected to be behind that and attend sabotage that natanz nuclear facility iran's main nuclear facility and iran says that he fled the country before the incident took place and iran is seeking an interpol warrant for him that this is really his image was circulated on state t.v. and in the past when we have heard from the intelligence ministry or the intelligence agencies inside iran that they have identified suspects we've really seen images or names so this is quite rare but as i said iran says that this is the man allegedly behind that incident at natanz which knocked out power and affected many centrifuges. of the country before the incident took place and what's been happening with the talks over the nuclear deal in vienna. well we've heard from

the chinese envoy that he has said that all parties have agreed to pick up the pace and start working on negotiations of negotiations to have those sanctions lifted and he hoped the over the next few days that negotiations will continue and specifically work on sanctions lifting formula and now we've also heard from the uranian negotiator to go to vienna talks and he said that there were good discussions and he said seems that the new understanding is being formed and all parties are agreeing on a final target he said that the path is clear but the path will not be easy because there are still some serious differences some of those serious differences are that iran stuck to its guns they want all trump era sanctions lifted before it returns to its commitments sanctions that are still in place under the biden administration the united states wants iran to return to its commitments before those sanctions

are lifted so this to a negotiating around those iran has also said that they're not interested in prolonged or prolonged negotiations and they want seriousness from the other side now iran is enriching 60 percent uranium that's the highest level that iran has ever had before the 2015 nuclear deal it was 20 percent once that nuclear deal was signed in 2015 iran stuck to the 3.67 percent enrichment after a year after donald trump imposed sanctions on iran iran increased to 4 percent after the assassination of iran's leader nuclear scientist iran again increased to 20 percent and after this latest incident at natanz nuclear facility iran has increased 60 percent as well that's installing 1000 more advanced centrifuges so there are still some serious differences but this seems to be from what we're hearing some glimmer of hope that some agreement may be reached. i was there as i said beg reporting live there from tara many thanks dataset want to take you live
