can be expected under the circumstances he lives with a foster family. one positive is that his torture is over and he can see closure he'll live permanently where he is now but a possible negative his that we have to tell him that all contact with his mother is broken off. this stuff and he's also raises questions about the local youth welfare office family court and police they may have failed to pass on information that could have helped the boy earlier. so tragic missed opportunities to help the victim bear and adolescent psychologist psychiatrist professor york fire guard tells us that the internet makes it more difficult for authorities to detect such crimes. you know i'm sorry to say i think these crimes will happen all the times and with the new possibilities in the internet in the dark now that. we see
7:04 pm
an increase of these crimes but what we can do is to have the right reactions when a child talks about abuse and i think in this case we missed a lot of chances to help the child and i think this is an issue that has now to be dealt in politics we need a better cooperation of the family courts of the use welfare offices and all the people involved the w.h.o. the world health organization says that ninety percent of these cases. possibly undetected in the institutions that should take care for them i'm not going to turn to some other news and u.s. president donald trump has warned other countries and businesses against doing business with iran saying that doing so would remove any chance of trading with the united states it comes after he reimposed many of the sanctions that were in effect before the twenty fifteen nuclear deal with iran in
7:05 pm
a tweet trumped labeled the renewed sanctions as quote the most biting ever imposed he went on to say quote anyone doing business with iran will not be doing business with the united states so while this pressure from trump get iran to back to the table for a new deal with the united states i put that question to ben i'm ben a research fellow from the foundation for defense of democracies who focuses on iranian security and political issues. well first and foremost thanks very much for having me yes this is exactly the sort of course of financial means basically economic sanctions that the u.s. is looking to levy and also in force against tehran to drive them to a choice about their behavior in the region and the economy as well as to more importantly get them back to the negotiating table and in co paly a more comprehensive nuclear deal as well as an agreement over its regional three teacher portfolios i mean so far tehran says though that they're not going back to
7:06 pm
the negotiating table so so i'd like to ask you as a follow on to that how hard do you expect the resumption of sanctions to hit iran because you know we don't only see the sanctions from the united states we also see this threat from the u.s. president saying that if you do business with iran you will not do business with the united states. that's absolutely right and that's the right kind of deterrent message for the commander in chief to send from the bully pulpit but also there are more important messages being sent through the state department and treasury department roadshows there's been i think somewhere from twenty to thirty countries visited by these two departments warning them of the risks of doing business with iran warning them of the wait and power of the u.s. secondary sanctions as well as some of the longstanding issues that the u.s. has had with iran over the past thirty to forty years so i think ultimately it is this kind of pressure that is going to drive the iranians to change their calculus but it's not going to be seen anytime soon i think we need to at least have the
7:07 pm
november for sanctions which have the oil penalties in there and then some kind of net effect on their economy in twenty nineteen and so what do you make that of what the europeans are saying because i mean they are saying to iran now please do not withdraw from this deal please do not ask your nuclear program they say that really the future of security in the region and the future security in the world is stake here are you concerned about the danger of an escalation in the region even militarily here could this plan backfire. well i think there's two vectors to your question here the first is perspective nuclear escalation in the other is regional on the nuclear escalation file i think iranian officials particularly the rouhani in serif camp know that they should not put their that they ought not to put their foot outside the boundary of the nuclear deal at least until november for and that's why you've seen iran adopt this cautious hedging strategy want to snoop their program where it threatens to do things threatens to reconnect machines restart certain processes as leverage with the europeans to create some kind of non
7:08 pm
dollar denominated sanctions proved channel to spite washington for reinstating those sanctions but on the military file iran does have limited prospects for military escalation and b. to return to ballistic missile flight testing terrorism which is a method of statecraft for the islamic republic most unfortunately terrorism both on the european continent and in the middle east as well as a return to naval harassment in the persian gulf these are all options but all these options will be responded to and i think tehran understands that and i'm ben taleb the new housing us to put it all into perspective thank you so much. now let's get a quick check of some other stories making news around the world turkish president richard type and want is to make a two day visit to germany at the end of september he will meet with chancellor angela merkel and germany's president after being received with military honors german turkish relations have reached a new low in recent years over human rights and other issues. i missed the

7:13 pm
from a collapsed mosque on monday about one hundred people had been praying there when the quake struck many got out but it's feared that dozens more are still trapped. he is one of the lucky ones but crews must also soar through the rubble of more than thirteen thousand houses across the island powerful aftershocks as well as cuts to power and communications in some areas are hampering the search for the missing. and all of us hope to do this is a see that few thought possible. three days after the earthquake struck a woman was pulled alive from the rubble of a building. rescuers initially thought no one could have survived the collapse of the structure. but then they had a sound coming out of this hole. oh. so we tried to open up an access a few times but a refrigerator was in the way and that made it difficult but when we did manage to
7:14 pm
open access we then heard a voice. the victim wasn't pinned down by anything and there was a crawl space. for the rescue was a brief moment of joy. but the nightmare elsewhere is far from over. and this village not a single building has remained intact the people here are among twenty thousand survivors now with nowhere to live and not enough to eat or drink one but he says he's afraid of what comes next. but i don't think it'll be easy to return to normal life because the trauma was extraordinarily bad we dare not sleep indoors what's our plan for the future we don't know. thousands of tourists were also caught up in the quake hundreds are still said to be waiting to be transported by boat from three small islands off. the authorities
