sanctions amid a growing divide between the u.s. and germany chancellor angela merkel defended the ever an agreement as a key channel to terror on and stressed the need for international diplomacy. let's cross now to munich to speak to bremen president and founder of the eurasia group one of the world's leading global political risk research and consulting firms misrata thanks so much for joining us now this year security conference saw a rift significantly widen between the u.s. and the e.u. on a variety of issues specifically iran and russia what could the full out from this pain. the fallout is that the europeans are increasingly acting in a transactional way that if the they want to work with the if the americans want to work with them they're going to have to get something in return if they don't then they don't so i mean it's not the trust the common values the common strategy that

of course was present when the transatlantic relationship came together after world war two is really gone now and i think that what you see on display at this munich security council is a feeling of human failure of both collectively in being able to respond to global challenges like climate and cyber and unwinding geopolitical order but also a very deep pregnant asian in the transatlantic order you mentioned iran and russia are clearly the i.m.f. treaty clearly u.s. withdrawal from syria from afghanistan trade issues i mean pretty much everything that vice president pence was talking about the merkel was talking about there was no overlap between those two speeches that's quite something it's unprecedented here at the munich security conference and deep divisions now today's focus of the conference is the middle east iran's minister for foreign affairs spoke and he accused the u.s. of an obsession with iran let's have a quick listen to what he had to say. this malign obsession with iran

is imposing costs on others and especially in a region which has for forty years. suffered from home sequences. insistence of the united states on making wrong choices. through them by its pop the logical obsession with iran america has no encouraged recklessness and destructive adventures. on the parts of this point. a pathological obsession is that truth and that is that an accurate description would you say well no i mean trumps lack of attention span means that he doesn't get pathologically obsessed with anything. you know but there's no question that the united states is withdrawing unilaterally from the iranian deal that the american allies here in europe the canadians as well as countries like

china and russia strongly oppose that and they're upholding the deal you saw not just here in munich but also in warsaw vice president pence strongly condemning the europeans for not being with the united states on this issue and you've got crickets you've got complete silence from the europeans they are doing their best to go their own way now ultimately that that means humanitarian aid in some small investments the iranian economy is going to take a huge hit on the back of the american economy mattering more but let's be very clear there is literally zero agreement on this issue between the americans and the europeans and that means that the iranian strategy is to wait out at least this trump administration in the hope and we'll see if it plays out that he doesn't win a second term all right and president and founder of the eurasia group thank you so much for joining us my pleasure. will make is in berlin are bracing for washington to classify call imports as
