you know be passive about this is not going to increase iran's leverage of course the iranians also take no risk because by undertaking some of these actions especially holding on to some of that reach radio money if they increase the level of enrichment it's going to really ratchet up the pressure and also it would damage their relations europeans but you know there were as far as the iranians are mine as well and some of the moderates were concerned or were left me no other choice and they need to look increased the leveraged without willing to leverage against america that really remains to be seen no doubt on is this a negotiating tactic in your opinion i mean is there any way that this deal can be saved or is this now done. to be honest with the i don't see president going back to the negotiation table because it's i think this is going to ratchet up the pressure between the two sides i think the two sides are now is

slowly slowly going to start to play a game of chicken a day running and increasing i said they were going to also look at excess uranium and grease a little ritual that is really going to put them on a pos. confrontation with the west and israel but on the other side the americans of all sizes of pressuring iran to agree to a better deal. are send you know are ratcheting up their military. presence in the persian gulf they're sending almost every ship you can see both sides are doing this in order to increase their hand and in a go she shouldn't but you know it's very difficult so i decide to accept their opposite sides conditions because they run yes will say look we are not the ones who walked out of the nuclear deal was the americans and the americans president talked down if he gives in to you by and demands of the moment because he sticks so much of his presidency especially considering the fact that it's going to stand for

elections in twenty twenty only see run things so i think wish that we international community will witness but very very. just say tense time from now on between iran and the united states they are to have it on fire not only sallust thank you. a christian woman who spent years on death row in pakistan for blasphemy has arrived in canada where she has been reunited with her family that's according to her lawyer bibi was sentenced to death back in two thousand and ten after being accused of insulting the prophet muhammad in a dispute with muslim colleagues last year she won an appeal against her conviction which sparked widespread protests throughout pakistan and death threats from religious extremists the mother of five had been living in safe houses since her sentence was overturned. let's get a quick check now some other stories making news around the world also in pakistan at least nine people were killed and dozens more wounded in a bombing at

a sushi shrine in the for police say that the explosion struck near a security checkpoint outside of the shrine the building had previously been targeted in twenty ten when a suicide attack killed more than forty people. two students were arrested at a school in denver colorado after they opened fire on their classmates one student was killed in the shooting all several others were maimed in the hospital in a critical condition authorities have not yet commented on a possible motive for the attack and at least seven inmates have died another ten have been seriously wounded in a prison riot in guatemala prisoners took over the jail for about eight hours before some fifteen hundred police officers regained control at the facility east of the capital water mommas city. and polls have opened in south africa's presidential and parliamentary elections as voters give their verdict on the performance of president's. and his ruling a.n.c. party have been watching their approval ratings nosedive as he struggles to make

good on promises to fight corruption and get the economy back on track although the a.n.c. is expected to win this election as it has every time since the country emerged from white minority rule twenty five years ago analysts are predicting that it's margin of victory will fall sharply. now a reduced margin of victory could make it even more difficult for president robert poser to restore his party's reputation and implement the economic and political reforms that he has promised. so many south africans ciro run a pose and body to a new chapter and leader who enjoyed support and trust right across the class and color divides. when he replaced his disgraced predecessor jacob zuma first as leader of the a.n.c. and then as president he promised years of corruption and economic mismanagement were over your door is up or nose and that wonderful door has opened.

as a young anti apartheid activist and trade union leader from opposer was a nelson mandela protege led the talks to and white minority rule in south africa. but when he was passed over as mandela's successor to president he turned his back on politics and focused instead on business becoming one of the country's wealthiest men. later it was the backing of the business lobby and his boardroom experience that would help give him another edge over other contenders to replace jacob zuma. but scenes like this showed the kind of challenges facing run opposer and the a.n.c. back home protests across the country at issues including government corruption a lack of jobs and poor public services and the troubled state utility eskom

rationing power causing rolling blackouts that have hindered efforts to boost growth. in addition ram opposer is under pressure because the a.n.c. is losing voters to the more populist land reform policies of the f f so he's pressing ahead with the expropriation of white farmers without compensation but risks losing white support and that of the international community. cyril rama poses future is all but certain his preferred path is one of stability and growth but if this election doesn't hand the a.n.c. enough votes from a poser could find himself losing his grip altogether on the divided party so what issues do matter most to south africans in this election did he is christine one who has been testing the mood. i'm outside a polling station in so way to about four thousand people are expected to vote here today and these are some of the early risers that you're seeing behind me

a few people of course a photo have told us all process takes about ten minutes once you're actually inside the classrooms where the voting is taking place a lot at stake in this election and of course these are the people who are going to be deciding south africa's future want to have a chat to ten days i hear she's in the queue waiting to turn she's actually very close to the cue so says time data what are you hoping you'll vote to do whoever wins the election what would you like to see them do for you did a very key let's go through all this especially local clinics local public schools. around the areas mostly in so with all of us live as fights crime stalwarts or as the whole south africa as a whole has a problem with criminals hi jake king and all those things to once a better country as the whole please whoever that is going to really make a change make south africa south africa political there are forty eight parties on

the ballot paper that's almost double the amount that was in the last in action so a lot for south africans just one but it really comes down to the three main parties in this election that will be the african national congress this is the a.n.c. the party that has led south africa in the twenty five years post democracy you have the economic freedom fighters are integral to the new play on the scene but has gained a lot of traction in the few years that they've been on the scene that you have the democratic alliance a lot is at stake in this election the two big parties being the a.n.c. and the da are expected to have snoozed votes and not even grow the only party that people are really confident about the fact that they will grow in support is the economic freedom fighters a lot is at stake particularly for the african national congress the a.n.c. the message it's been wanting to send to voters is that it's still relevant to south africa and to take south africa to the future twenty five years into democracy. liverpool has staged a remarkable comeback to advance to the final of the champions league with

a victory over barcelona jonathan crane from get you sports is here in studio with us to walk us through the match and what happened well it was a remarkable european nights and filled with ripples ground perhaps the most remarkable they've ever seen live with three no down from the without their star player few would have given them a chance they tended around started. after seven minutes and then the game was turned on its head in two minutes in the second half of that man georgie nirvana album on as a substitute school the first that is right for the second with his head so that levelled the tie on aggregates real we can see. under to say absolutely helpless and then with ten minutes to go develop. scored his second the night little pools for that was a sneaky quick corner from trent alexander on a completely even reedy didn't seem like he'd seen the boards that was at his face new put it in the nets and look for a remarkable comeback never give up the mossad says they certainly did not give up

that's all incredible three goals down against barcelona their superstar lionel messi i mean this was really a historic comeback wasn't it true he was the first time since one thousand nine hundred eighty six that the side has overcome a three go with any final deficit to advance to the final the last side to manage that was. against. the irony won't be lost on them of course second season as well in a row that they have lost in straight away three goal advantage of this road in the quarter finals last season but this wasn't about. capitulating it was all about liverpool a remarkable performance and then they really were down by the players necks and from the word go brilliant individual performances to. set up a couple of the goals right back and you can claw the coach we know how passionate he gets is now in champions league final in six seasons and even he can believe it after the game. for me to screw up have to describe it it's

a big heart and tonight it was hopelessly like crazy but is it won't go but you don't have to do this counting how many like crazy and you could hear it probably and feel it all over the world so it's just believe i'm so happy that we could give two people this lucy experience so they've conquered barcelona and now in the semifinals they're back in the finals for the second straight time who are they going to face now and can they take it all the way we'll find out who will face the lates this evening of the second semifinal put so i acts against tottenham i.x. how about one goal advantage from the for us leg or you favor them straight because of their lead and they also are playing hard but i think if we win anything from this competition it's done right any side off tottenham we have seen the reporters out and gained inspiration from that we've not had an old english final for more than a decade i think whoever gets through liverpool will certainly fancy that chance is the momentum is on their side to meld the two events that i find of the faith

against real madrid last season to i think ray thank you it's. and up next here on news a documentary about the treasures of house in greece you're up to date now on d w i'm sorry kelly and for life it's for watching. shifting powers the old order is history the world is real you know is in itself and the media's role is keep the topic in focus of the global media forum twenty nine change today one out of two people is online who are we following who do we trust to beijing and shape the future that the torch is going to global media for twenty dollars.
