trying to do exactly that a thing that name. and i want you. to . this is deja vu news coming to you live from berlin the red remains wary of donald trump surprise all for talks after the u.s. president said he was willing to meet with iran's leader rowhani we'll have the latest on trump's u. turn also coming up the city islamic state turned into a ghost town syndrome in northern iraq was liberated three years ago but only

a fraction of the seating minority who once lived there have returned we have an exclusive report. but i'm terry martin good to have you with us a cool response from tehran to donald trump's unexpected offer of talks the head of iran's strategic council on foreign relations says the country sees no value in talks with the u.s. president that's after trump said that he was willing to meet with iranian president hassan rouhani without preconditions the statement comes after a week of increased hostility between the two countries tehran and washington are at odds over the fate of the arend nuclear deal which trump withdrew from earlier this year. even by president chump standards the statement made its a news conference with the italian prime minister surprising their quality is the

first time a u.s. president has offered to meet with an iranian leader since the islamic revolution nearly forty years ago. i would certainly meet with a round of they want to meet i don't know that they're ready yet to have a hard time right now but i ended the iran deal it was a ridiculous deal i do believe that they will probably end up wanting to meet and i'm ready to meet any time they want to and i don't do that from strength or from weakness i think it's an appropriate thing to do. this statement was all the more unexpected given the flare up of tension between tehran and washington over the last week on sunday the iranian president warned the u.s. to stop provoking his country. mr trump don't play with the lion scale this will only lead to regret you will never regret it. true to form from responded on twitter this time with an all caps to rate warning rouhani he would suffer the consequences the likes of which few throughout history to ever

suffered before if you threaten the us again ending the tweet with the words be cautious. the two sides began to escalate their rhetoric in may after trump withdrew from the landmark accord aimed at limiting tehran's nuclear program and in an initial response to trump's new offer iran has stressed that there can be no dialogue unless the u.s. returns to this nuclear deal and suspends new sanctions. she u.s. secretary of state might point peo also say that while he's on board with trump's initiative he thinks iran should change its behavior before any such talks take place. but as president trump said in monday's news conference his meeting with north korea's dictator also compounded expectations but in his words produce positive results so maybe the international community could be in for another surprise when it comes to iran or let's cross over to tehran with

eric randolph here's a correspondent for the french news agency. tell us more about iran's reaction or latest statements concerning their country. so far pretty muted they are rushing into a response from the top officials. lower down officials who have given a mixed response some say. no way to iran to negotiate unless the u.s. comes back into the nuclear deal others say for instance the foreign policy commission saying. we shouldn't make negotiations with the u.s. it's a blue we need to find a way to move forward so this is a bit of a mix but nothing from the top leaders yet now when president rouhani originally negotiated the rand nuclear deal hardliners in his country vilified him politically can he even afford to begin to pursue a rapprochement with the u.s.

a second time i mean this is clearly the rouhani has very little political capital with most of the states alone is it just missed the all the nuclear deal in trying to fifteen on reaching out to the well going to try to foreign investment and so it's now using the naive to trust that. states that said there's been a real pulling together of the different factions in iraq since. this threat so there's much more unity at the top of the decision comes it won't be coming from iran any movie coming from the supreme leader no make the decision to go. what about ordinary a rainy and eric what do they make of trump's on again off again approach to nuclear diplomacy. well we've had three actually from people we've been talking to on the street but it's important to remember the rain and don't care too much about what america does and the focus is really on the internal problems of the countries

and while that is the result of u.s. actions pressure now you've been listening to this and for big groups with their leaders in the u.s. most of their lives and they tend to tune out and most of them just want to go home and to get something done find a way to restore confidence in the economy the current season crashing so there's a serious joblessness problem they want that focus on what the government is going to do so much from you know this tweet commenters from the white house thank you so much for that was spent eric randall there he's a correspondent for the french news agency a.f.p. speaking to us from tehran. well staying in the u.s. president trump has tweeted that collusion is not a crime but this just hours before the purse trial in the special counsel's russia probe that opens today in virginia president trump's former campaign manager paul

metaphor places eighteen charges a conviction could give momentum to investigators trying to determine if the trunk campaign worked with moscow to sway the two thousand and sixteen u.s. election. in the united states all eyes are on the opening day of poll manifolds trial he said to plead not guilty the prosecution in the case is from special counsel robert miller's team for more than a year now chief investigator miller has been probing whether russia colluded with donald trump's team to influence the presidential election. from june to august two thousand and sixteen manifold was trump's campaign manager but these charges don't relate to his alleged links to russian operatives but rather a tax and financial fraud some suspect however that federal prosecutors want to use the case to put pressure on men afoot to testify in russia and he has no information incriminating of the president i know that for a fact they can squeeze him. does not know anything

before working for trump manifold with a political advisor and you're crying prosecutors will argue he had millions here and there from u.s. authorities. manifolds is the first case to go to trial since the russian probe started last year the manifold has been held in jail since june after prosecutors laid new charges against him for influencing witnesses his trial will be held in alexandria virginia just miles from the white house. now smothers stories making headlines around the world today north korea is reportedly working on a new missiles u.s. by satellites have detected renewed activity at a north korean site that has produced ballistic missiles in the past that's according to u.s. government sources speaking to the washington post renewed activity comes despite north korean leader kim jong il and promising to work toward denuclearization at his summit with all injured. friends has passed

as brigitta shoka traveled there and gives us this exclusive report. seeing on the capital of the ruins devastated by invasion and the fight for liberation most people fled when so-called islamic state took the city and killed then it's left thousands now that the islamists have been expelled only a few residents have free to and in many parts feels like a ghost town to end of years after liberation from i as only three thousand families have returned to a city which once had more than eighty thousand inhabitants. there's still no sign of reconstruction there are no hospitals schools a functional administration he has hedy's living in sin gun hill abandoned by the police to sense. the head of we've got no electricity and the water is bad.

own checkpoints and have their own agendas all parties want influence here in the singe amounts being close to the syrian border the region is strategically important to kurds to the central government and backed up to turkey and iran. shiites mayor fatah middlemarch says the cities people are suffering from this clash of interests he is the yes' eady put in office by the central government then left to fend for himself. is it isn't it that leaders edis hard treated like fourth or fifth class citizens let me give you an example i had to live in the mountains for three years and five months there were six thousand families in the mountains if we weren't yazidi easy they would have taken care of us like they did other people. move more than residents come to him every day asking for money for reconstruction but he can't help them the government says it wants to press on with
