obama didn't negotiate or pull out. that we're not going to let them violate the nuclear agreement they go out of their weapons and we're not allowed to we're the ones that have stayed in the agreement and we bonded report russia's not fortunately on to the agreement so we're going to terminate a group that we're going to. go across not to moscow where the correspondent. is standing by really good to see you know his russia reacted to trump's announcement well rush russia has taken trump's announcement very seriously various officials today have been warning of the danger of such a decision and of the serious consequences that it could have and several officials today including two heads of international affairs committees of the of the two houses of parliament have also portrayed this decision as kind of

a strategic ploy of trump's they've called this blackmail ahead of us national security advisers visit john bolton's visit to moscow this week and seen as a sort of trade strategy putting pressure on russia but the foreign ministry today also appealed for calm they also kind of are portraying the u.s. side as being almost sort of a bull in a in an international china shop as it were kind of breaking up of international agreements left and right and that's a kind of a strategy and a rhetoric that we've seen increasingly in the trumpet ministration from the russian side now present. repeatedly violating the agreement saying that that is the reason why the u.s. wants to pull out of it easy right. well that's right the u.s. has repeatedly accused russia also under the obama administration they leveled

actually such accusations at russia and also today we saw official representatives of nato come out and also voiced concern over russia's violations now russia has repeatedly over the years denied that they're violating the six remained and today as well russian officials came out and said that the u.s. had provided absolutely no proof that they were violating the agreement but we also have seen in the last year in recent months particularly kind of an arms race rhetoric i would call it in march for example at vladimir putin's state of the union address he spoke about a huge arsenal of new russian weapons. he showed even animations of russian weapons striking kind of fake targets really showing off to the world that russia is ready to take on any threat so kind of very much upping the rhetoric rhetoric and

a very it's a very sort of difficult place to live with say at the moment and there are also migrants coming from nicaragua in guatemala as. they're heading north up towards the u.s. border now where we're seeing these images like we've just seen there is actually down in the southern part of guatemala right on the border there with mexico and there's a river and we saw those images we're seeing on our screen now of people crossing they beat they grew frustrated and they just wanted to cross into mexico because they were waiting over in guatemala for those who managed to cross over there they were heard actually chanting you know that we've done it we've managed to do it and they're heading north and as you mentioned as well before they're on their way towards the united states but what is the latest is everybody heading towards the united states or is there a robust movement of the holds about how exactly and that's the thing because there have been several thousand have actually been sent back which is obviously you know devastating for those people have made this very difficult journey through central america and so there's been talk that up to two thousand actually have been sent

back and now you also mentioned quite clearly one man of course that's donald trump he and his supporters are very clear in what they want which is that they do not want these migrants reaching the u.s. border and they will turn them back and i was monitoring this i've been monitoring the situation on social media and one thing which is quite ironic is there's obviously been a lot of talk in you know in the united states about building this war with mexico and ironically neither of those have been voices within mexico building a wall on mexico's so the border to block migrants coming from the rest of central america overall what is the reaction. to the migrants well we've seen all sorts of reaction of course donald trump has plenty of support on this issue i mean there's been plenty of movement on social media one big voice in particular who is a conservative journal the ernest who works for ad the big network fox he was very

clear and he said that this invasion must stop now or we lose the united states mexico decides to support the onslaught against our border. more than two thousand migrants have to are marching north towards the u.s. border in defiance of donald trump so very clear they're now in support of the migrants we've actually heard a big voice within. the latin american community it's hard to get ramos he's born in mexico he's a big name in the united states and he was very clear and he said that the vast majority of central american immigrants are not criminals and all they want is to be allowed to pass through mexico to reach the united states mexicans should not become what they criticize trump so much he said racist classist and xenophobia you have to have a little bit of heart so you know this is an issue that is dividing the united states certainly thanks very much for bringing us up a bit of a reporter bob before here yes thanks so much.
