historically low level of $15000.00 and that unleashed an outcry from democrats who said that that decision was shameful very quickly then the white house reversed course said that there would be more refugees admitted after all but hasn't said exactly how many and as to why there has been a lot of criticism for the way that the white house has communicated about this 1st they said it was because it would take time to rebuild of the damage that the trumpet ministration had done to the office of office of refugee resettlement which had been gutted under the previous president later though today president biden said that the situation was very much tied to what's happening at the border of the united states with mexico of course that's where we're seeing a historic wave of migrants many of them unaccompanied children trying to enter the country from central america and it is the same office of refugee resettlement who must then process those miners and president biden earlier today said that that was

a crisis on the border and that the bureaucracy of that office is strained nevertheless he says he's trying to admit more refugees into the country. close more ground still to cover for you here on al-jazeera including now i get emotional when i talk about it. it's in my it's in my blood i feel such a connection here. a diaspora returns why people are choosing to leave in europe and america in favor of the cape for dialogue. hello there we've got some rather nasty weather pushing across the deep south of the u.s. you can see the thunder has a rumbling away him moving across the deep south into the florida panhandle it's on

60 percent purity confirming earlier statements from tehran that comes as members of the 2015 nuclear deal continue efforts to revive the agreement in vienna which the former us president donald trump pulled out of the e.u. and russia negotiators a positive about progress being made on the head of the iranian delegation says the talks are on the right track. and the phenomenon it seems a new understanding is in the offing all sides have a commonality in their final objective the path that we have to pay is now clear as we have said many times and interested in protected negotiations but talks and needed to shed light on all discussions in naturally talks will continue we think talks are now at a point where all sides concede and begin trafton a joint don't command it can start even now at least in areas that the 2 sides of common ideas. senior fellow at the national iran american council she says

iran wants to return to the deal but is being consistently provoked. i think we have to separate the enrichment issue from going to go she ations issue and the reason for that is the 60 percent enrichment was a direct reaction to the attack on that sounds to the nuclear facility on mountains and so while you have the international community the p 5 plus one you have the united states and iran trying to return to the deal there are still those parties it appears to be that this is another sabotage attack by israel there are still those parties who are opposed to the deal and so they are still continuing to use methods of sabotage to undermine the deal but iran is quite serious about returning to the deal and if we do so obviously under the obligations of the deal iran would not enrich at 60 percent it would come back down to $3.00 from the u.s. perspective it's a little bit murkier from the iranian perspective returning to compliance is fairly straightforward you know it's a matter of how much uranium they have how much at what level they can rich on the

u.s. side the trump sanctions were intended to undermine biden's ability to return to the deal and this is precisely something i believe the biden ministration understands and we've seen that language from iran special envoy rob malley as well as from the state department saying that the united states understands that in order to return to compliance the sanctions that are inconsistent with the deal would have to be lifted and so i think that's the area that you see the deputy foreign minister add up she talking about when he says you know there are still some differences but that's the idea that they're trying to work through to actually get to the place where iran is getting the economic relief that it was promised china is edging the united states and japan to stop meddling in its domestic affairs and harming its interests the message came to the u.s. in japan a suit a joint statement expressing concern of issues such as hong kong xinjiang and the south china sea china's foreign ministry says it has quote indispensable
