english premier league it'll either be leaders manchester city or liverpool they're trailing by just one point and the last round to see some. place. a manuscript is mackinnon thanks so much for joining us. the united states is deploying an assault ship and a missile battery to the persian gulf to bolster other military vessels already in the area the u.s. said the move is in response to a possible threat to u.s. forces in the region by iran but they didn't specify the nature of that threat iran has dismissed the clay the new deployed vessels are the u.s.s. allington which transports marines and conventional landing craft as well as the patriot air defense system they will join the u.s.s. abraham lincoln carrier that's already there. that for more we're joined by.

an independent analyst on the air ron thanks so much for joining us the u.s. claims terror on might be preparing to conduct what it's calling offensive operations against u.s. forces or its interest what evidence is there for this. well that there is the claim that there is evidence for it but there is no information given to the media and i really think at this point we all have to be very cautious not to. try to emphasize is worse is a moment we're still going to keep going to ships into the region happened early april and we are hearing about a new patriot missile battery that goes into the region just a couple i think days or weeks there more of these countries were taken out of the region so there is a lot of check you going on lot of rhetoric to talk to the border to create a situation in which no one is basically concerned about

a possible war whereas on the ground it's actually not need be the case ok but up obviously there is there is a military that as of this activity how much pressure is this existing on iran. the good thing is on both sides that politicians can always talk but they are military general security this a curious doubtless you know them both sides that has satellite pictures that they have the evidence and they are watching what is actually happening on the ground and they do not fall for sensationalist rhetoric or reporting commenting that you're doing sensationalist reporting but others are and therefore in iraq and that's the point i want to make there is not that much debate about all what we're hearing out of washington today ok iran has also said that it suspending parts of the nuclear deal agreed with $122015.00 what is toronto paying to achieve with this

new haven how much support is there for this amongst the rain ians. well the calculation in tehran whether it will prove to be successful or not is a different question but the calculation is that if we start a calibrated escalation of the situation by pointing out what moves we can take to withdraw gradually from the agreement while emphasizing that you want ones to stay in the agreement then with this clear growth and the other remaining parties of c.p.u. able to move to the green if you will do more in order to safeguard meaning to ensure you moron gets the dividend it is. actually support supposed to get under the agreement people in iran inside the country have become more critical than ever about the actual value of the nuclear agreement because there was no real outcome form for iran so i guess there has also been internal pressure on the government to

basically do something that ties between iran and the us have deteriorated massively but trumps actually said he wants iran to cool him how likely is iran to do that would you say. it is really interesting and important that you point that out because on the one hand you have the national security adviser john bolton you have secretary of state michael page with these 2 seem to be reading willing to drag iran into a war as president trying is not about war we heard his wording during the election campaign he was very critical of the global war on terror and the 7 trillion dollars that the u.s. has spent so i really think donald trump with all the weird kind of outreach that he does wants to speak to your barn whereas others in his administration do not want that and that brings to a very awkward situation in which they have to think about well which side of the of this story should we actually believe is the president driving iran policy or others and that's why you get one cannot really respond to this kind of outreach my

trumpet this morning. atlanta time by an independent analyst thank you so much pleasure. china's top trade negotiator says he's cautiously optimistic that his country can still reach a trade deal with the united states vice premier. made the comments off of the us announced plans to raise tariffs on all remaining chinese imports and you that these targets $300000000000.00 worth of chinese products including consumer electronics has got some talk of 200 $1000000000.00 worth of products hit by a 1st round of u.s. terrify kes on friday these hikes come off negotiations between the 2 sides ended without agreement but there is still some time for washington and beijing to resolve their differences as the news of the salat explains it was a brief meeting in washington d.c. that ended quickly after it begun with no results but that did not come as

a big surprise as the talks already stalled one week ago after the chinese negotiators walked back several parts of the agreement the major sticking points are lost restraining american companies in china and also the question how to tackle intellectual property the u.s. president donald trump made a very relaxed impression he genuinely believes that tariffs benefit the u.s. economy and he also believes that china would pay for these tariffs but economists challenge that they believe that eventually american businesses will have to pay the bill and also american consumers there's one glimmer of hope coming from washington as well and that's the fact that all goods that are currently on route from china to the u.s. on a container ship that those goods are excluded and that would give negotiators another $3.00 to $4.00 weeks time to reach an agreement. all right let's take a look at some of the other stories making news around the world. scuffles have
