specifically this launch into space? was it part of the ballistic missile program, or is it part of the space program? are they very separate or intertwined? and also can you tell us why with the iranians decide to do this at this juncture? it's a part of the iran space program, and iran had a space program for quite a long time. it's spent satellites into orbit on a number of occasions. it's over 10 years since iran incentives for a satellite into space. i think it's pretty clear that the iranians are going to continue with business as usual, whether it's regards to it's based program or even it's miss out ballistic missile technology we saw runs military maneuvers just carried out a few days ago. that was obviously a message the united states into this railey, that any military conflict would need to devastating consequences. in other words, those maneuvers were carried out to prevent war. but when the iranians believe that

when the united states is trying to prevent iran from importing even medicine, and when the europeans assist the united states in batting, such import, then iran has to become self sufficient. both sides have to work together and they can't have anything extra them before. thank you very much for your time. mama, randy, they're from the university of to hon. the point he's making is that there is a lot of work ahead, and that is the general consensus by all parties involved moving forward into the new year. they're going to have a lot of things to hammer out. and the europeans, the european union, who's hosting these talks of also said that there is a lot of hard decisions that are going to be, have to made and tear on and washington. but there is hope that they will be able to reach some kind of an agreement in the coming weeks ahead. now, a 2 month sit in is coming to an end near bank that's green zone. iranian backed sha political parties have been protesting against the results of october

legislative elections. they say the vote was rigged down now dismantling the tents with all areas set to be clear by fact. today, the supreme court ratified the election results. after 6 weeks of legal challenges with the why has joins us now live from baghdad. so my mood, the latest line is that the prime minister will be calling for the parliament to meet or the president rather quoting for parliament to meet. does that mean? i mean, i guess that's a good sign for the election results. right? when apparently it is me because the president's announcement for the parliament to convene on january 9th, that is also an implementation of the constitution, which stimulates that the parliament should convene within 15 days. since the day the supreme court rectifies the election results. and also it follows an important

meeting and measure of city between the religious religious leader looked at the southern who's the block achieved the majority of seats in the parliamentary elections. he met with the political leaders of the iranian backed political blocks, which lost many seats in the election. remember in this area, what am i standing right now? pro iranian supporters of the support of the prearranged in a political park in the occupied this area for almost 2 months. now, it's clear, as you can see behind me, that there were probably dozens of 10 set up in this area before yesterday's meetings with between mac to the southern and the political leaders of the prearranged and she political parts. so it seems that things are going smoothly,

at least for the time being also according to the constitution that in the 1st session of the parliament, the parliament members should name a speaker and to the pity's of the parliament. and then, within 30 days, they should choose or elect the president of the state and the president of the state, the new president should assigned the majority the the biggest block in apartment 2 for the government. so now, as you can see, there are no supporters of the political parties that last in the election. no demonstrators, no tense. so it means that the meeting in the city between the political arrival factions is probably going will, at least for the time being. all right, thanks so much madame de la had birth the devastation caused by 11 years of war in syria means taking a hot shower at home is
