the state of the news coming to you live from berlin u.s. president i hope truong throws a wrench in the iran nuclear jail. based on the factual record i have put forward i am announcing today that we cannot and will not make this certification. as part of a new strategy for confronting terror on trouble someone else sanctions against the country's powerful revolutionary guard and he called on allies to help him curb obama's bill list to queso program to bring your reaction from tehran and from washington plus emergency services struggled to contain wildfires leaving a trail of destruction across northern california thirty one people of now.

i'm sarah harmon welcome to the show it's good to have you with us. u.s. president alan trump has outlined a new strategy on iran that he says is aimed at curbing any possible nuclear weapons development his remarks focus on the twenty fifteen nuclear deal between tehran and world powers which trump says needs to be improved the u.s. president now says he's decertifying that deal that gave iran relief from sanctions and exchange for restrictions on its nuclear development program that was stopped short of withdrawing from the agreement trump reserve that option if the deal isn't strengthened here's part of what he had to say i am announcing today that we cannot and will not make this certification we will not continue down a path whose predictable conclusion is more violence more terror and the very real threat of iran's nuclear breakout. or spawning to trump speech or

president haasan rouhani said tehran will continue to stick to the nuclear deal for now but he said iran could change its mind earlier i spoke to professor sayyid mohammad marandi from the university of tehran and i asked him how likely it was that iran will stay the course. while chomped by making this statement we can get plea agreement and if things continue like this it could end up to be a worthless piece of paper if that becomes than iraq a little government bring me the equipment so really the comes on what happens from here on if congress and the senate. try to violate the agreement. to be sort of quiet or true at close range and want to transfer agreement then i think it is ok to close to the agreement. and also if european union countries

did not take it. to defend their right. to override american threat and to protect their businesses and their business men and women. europeans trail to do that then i think there is also a freight train to upload to the creek let's cross to washington and bring in correspondent carson vaughn naaman he's in our d.c. studio we're also joined by our correspondent max hoffmann in brussels carson let's start with you trump has handed this back to congress what their options now what trump once congress and the senate in particular to do is establish a sawed off trigger points which would prompt the united states to automatically impose sanctions if iran crosses certain red lines as for instance launching an

intercontinental missile the point is that even terms advise us agree that iran is sticking to the letter of the agreement so trump is looking at the broader context and saying iran is the stabilizing the region and we cannot have this is not the question is if congress really wants to do this and if they want to do this in need sixty votes in the senate the republicans don't have that so there has to be a compromise between the democrats and the republicans and if that compromise is enough for trump to be happy with the new deal is questionable and also this would be you need to lead to real amendments to an international agreement and it's highly doubtful that the other signatories to the treaty will agree with that ok max let's get your reaction what is the e.u. is saying about this now from the u.s. . well frederick i'm a greenie the e.u. chief diplomat who came out to speak after trump's announcement in washington d.c.

underlined that this was a domestic affair that we still had to wait to see what the outcome the actual outcome would be in the united states whether the states stay in the agreement or not but you could also tell that she was well not in the best of moods and that's understandable given that you really had the lead in those negotiations for twelve years in that mode to really sort of was the face of this agreement and this is one important part of what she had to say right here it is not a bilateral agreement it does not belong to any single country and it is not up to any single country to terminate it it is a multilateral agreement which was unanimously endorsed by the united nations security council resolution twenty two thirty one and she insisted on that saying later again that the president of the united states had many powers but to end the agreement was not one of those powers and the bottom line in the real message here

by morgan really was the agreement is working and it's delivering i guess a motorist says that the agreement is working but how much leverage does europe have with washington and with tehran max. the united states and europe have always worked better together in these circumstances if they really were a tandem in this case the usually the europeans take over the role of the diplomats of the ones who find compromise because that's what they do in daily life just think of the european union twenty eight member states compromise as a given year and of course having the military muscle behind that with the united states so that worked well that worked well with the deal now if the two are separated as seems to be the case here of course the leverage of the european union this much smaller it doesn't have much leverage with u.s. administration we saw that for example for the paris agreement on climate change where they couldn't persuade trump either to stick with it now with tehran it's a different story they will have to make their own understand or at least be credible to tell them that it's worth staying in that deal in the nuclear

disarmament deal even if the united states aren't part of it and they could do that with the business side because as we heard earlier there are a lot of european businesses making money now with the red and that's good for the european union and it's good for iran right carson trump is going to be looking to impose additional sanctions to stop what he described as a wrong financing of terror what is that likely to look like. one what the americans could do is for instance or what trump wants to do what he said he would do is targeting the revolutionary guards which is a special militia which basically is the personal army of the religious leader in iran so they are involved in large parts of the iranian economy and of course just now as iran is trying to develop

a bit more as many as tensions have been lifted imposing new sanctions on this group would be a setback for iran but having said that it's highly doubtful that it will have a message of impact and also it would clearly be seen by the iranians as a violation of the agreement they probably would say this is not void so i see this more as a symbolic move by trump i don't think you can impose sanctions america can impose sanctions against iran without tearing up the whole agreement all right that's carson the nominee in washington and max hoffman and brussels thanks to both of you . here's a look now at some other stories that are making news around the world former french culture minister aldrete has been named the new head of unesco the board of the u.n. cultural agency still hold her over a rival from cantars when it comes a day after the u.s. and israel said they're both pulling out of the us go washington accuses the

a scene in unprecedented disaster. these men are among eight thousand firefighters who spent the last few days trying to bring the blazes under control. and houses down the st louis there's no better feeling you know it's just they're just they're everywhere you know there's little pockets there's there's. there's parts that we just can't get to dozens of fires have been burning in and around napa valley since last sunday they causes are uncertain but fanned by hot dry winds they've scorched an area the size of new york city and filled the air with acrid smoke. we're in a mask because i mean there are two three days now i live here and starting to really affect my breathing along. there's no let up expected in the coming hours and already these fires have turned much napa valley from a tourist destination to

a place with little more than scorched earth remains i want to bring in our new beulah felt now he lives and will it's california he's a performance artist who's known for his award winning beer he moved from germany to california twenty five years ago on a thanks for joining us that is one impressive beard there and you're in one of the affected regions what is the situation like for you right now. or the situation that is a lot of unknowns because the area that are live in was it actually they did have a thousand. of them. right now only one of those cars is to call especially since as you mentioned well it's called a red flag warning which is zero percent storm when it's so we're all basically on the edge because i know times. again to populate it's

a difficult situation and you built your own home there a sustainable home that must have taken a lot of time and energy you've lost everything now what are you doing to handle this catastrophe. right now i live in a hotel room many friends look after me and my wife and i and right now we don't really know what it's going to continue we have not seen yet. looks like we're not allowed to go. and we're probably probably the most over days more before we know what would happen do you feel like you're getting enough support from local authorities. early first few days the growth or. completely overwhelmed there were so many problems. there was no one telecommunications there was no internet the highway was cut off by the fire so it was very scary few days. now after three days they are starting to

be able to take care of us and it is getting so they're starting to do. going forward you know you're you're one of the lucky ones in a way dozens of people have died but you've also probably lost your home what are your hopes for the future or no hopes for the future or the you know this we're not there are no it. is something for me to return to because i will return to where i lived our lives of. snow and. i had on a bill of felt there we wish you all the best for you and your family thanks for joining us from willits california and thank you. well staying in the u.s. for a minute the chief of amazon studios roy price has been put on immediate leave of

absence as the scandal surrounding producer harvey weinstein grows now price was suspended after allegations that he sexually harassed an amazon t.v. producer and ignored the actress rose mcgowan when she told him she'd been raped by producer harvey weinstein weinstein himself is facing a number of sexual assault allegations that emerged this week following investigative reporting by the new york times and the new york. javier is here now to talk a little bit about the impact of donald trump's new iran policy which is being keenly felt here in europe that's right aaron as you can imagine of course reactions are not really good there's a lot of concern because when it was signed in july twenty fifteen the deal actually enjoyed great acceptance that's in part because iran is a huge market let's take a look at some numbers and twenty sixteen the trade volume between the european union and iran was about fourteen billion europe's but it grew quickly and in the

first half of twenty seventeen trade grew to ninety four percent compared to the same period last year now with u.s. president don trump decertifying this agreement the u.s. congress could impose new sanctions and that's exactly why big banks are actually reluctant to backing investments in iran the e.u. doesn't want this to damage its new business ties so the european commission wants the european investment bank to get directly involved with business in iran the individual member states are also taking action at the beginning of the year germany backed up its company's efforts in iran with safeguards totaling four hundred thirty million euros and now the damage export credit agency has offered one hundred percent assurances to danish companies exporting to iran these efforts could now be in danger as the world's number one economy changes its stance for iran trumps announcement could damage its economy the country's exports more than

quadrupled following the end of economic sanctions exports to europe more than tripled in twenty sixteen and there are a lot of companies especially in transportation and construction have benefited from the deal. the cheese made in this factory for example is being cut using machines made in bavaria multi-book is just one of many german companies benefiting from trade with their brand. exports from germany to iran rose twenty six percent in two thousand and sixteen according to german industry lobby b.t.i. in the first quarter of this year exports grew even more forty percent compared to last year q one. so plans by the u.s. to renegotiate the iran deal being watched closely by investors and the german government we have a great interest in the continuation of this international unity if one country an important country like the united states comes to

a different conclusion as appears to be the case we will work even harder with other partners to maintain this cohesion. many in iran and elsewhere will be watching closely to see whether the new us around strategy affects the a business interests. and i know someone else who will be watching closely our new york financial correspondent and scott it was joining us now hi it's good to see you again now trump from what we've seen is not pulling out of the deal yet but he is getting one step closer to pulling out what does this mean for companies planning on doing business with iran like boeing for example. well of companies to make investment decisions what they do not want is uncertainty but that's exactly what those remarks from the us president bringing and if you talk about boeing in general after the sanctions against iran got lifted it was mostly if you

were pm companies like french carmaker renault for example who are looking to increase business with the country it's not that many big u.s. firms are going after iran and one big exception is a boeing as you mentioned they actually have a deal going with iran to deliver eighty commercial jets for a list price of about seventeen billion dollars u.s. secretary of state rex tillerson was out saying that if you got special licenses and boeing did so then those still should be in place as far as we know now but still there was a little bit of pressure building up on the stock price of boeing and at the end we really have to wait and see how this all plays out definitely no yes in the meantime companies began revealing their quarterly results this week and as usual it started off with the u.s. banks what do the numbers tell us well we got some bit of good news and some

bad new was starting with the later trading business actually trading revenue would drop quite a bit for all the big u.s. financial institutions even if we see almost a new record every single trading day what banks are going for is big swings not just records so that business suffered a bit but overall citigroup j.p. morgan bank of america they all came in better than expected only wells fargo was a bit of a disappointment overall bank stocks that makes them to wall street still in chief at least intraday a new record high still a lot of reports coming in next week we'll be covering them with you thank you very much and carter in new york. and we stay in the u.s. because washington is hosting the elite of global finance this weekend two events are coming together the annual conferences of the international monetary fund and the world bank plus a meeting of g twenty financial officials the talks started earlier this week and

will end on sunday they will allow government officials academics and business executives to discuss global economic trends the i.m.f. forecasts that the global economy will expand by three point six percent that's the fastest rate since two thousand and ten earlier we asked our washington correspondent coston phenomenon how the mood was considering the i.m.f. so good projections. yeah absolutely the mood is very good but there was also a certain feeling of wistfulness because this is the last time that the german finance minister is here to meet his colleagues especially in the group of g twenty was of course first among equals in many ways through his authority and experience he has shaped this group also was this year the president of the group and i had a chance to really talk to the french finance minister who told me that everybody

in that meeting of the finance ministers was very friendly to work on short and that they were all solidly miss him now the i.m.f. has come with a message to this meeting the same tax the rich that's interesting considering that in the host country president trump is pushing for less taxes for the rich. yes the general outlook of both the i.m.f. and the world bank for the world economy are good but both. mr kim said we cannot be complacent we have to look at the fact that there are still some perils and there are problems we have to address the lack of investment another one is equality. income inequality as you said you know here in america we have a trend that goes in another direction and there's another area where also what. the world think ordering goes against what is happening here and that is the fight

against protectionism and again donald trump and his government are trying to be more protective of american industry and business causing phenomenon in washington thank you very much for the coverage. more world news now with sarah and unrest in kenya that's right javier thank you kenyan police have shot dead two opposition supporters as protests intensify ahead of a presidential election a rerun that's coming up later this month and well is have been banned in three major kenyan cities after the country's top court a know all the president who are as election win back in august but as concerns grow among opposition supporters about the legitimacy legitimacy excuse me on this new election demonstrators are flouting the ban. kenyan police armed with tear gas back on the streets of nairobi after a period of calm clashes have returned to the capital opposition protesters who to
