8:15 am
colombian territory ever since would now be distributed to venezuelans in colombia but there is no longer an effort to get that humanitarian aid into venezuelan territory so that would explain the decision at least immediately however if we ask the colombian the venezuelan a position rather than as well in a position considers that this is a reaction to increase pressure from within the country because people are desperate to get food and medicines from colombia and even oil in the country with the biggest oil reserves in the world. and there was our latin american correspondent javier arcadius reporting there now you're watching v.w. news still to come we'll take a look at how rafael adult confirm his status as the king of clay at the french open in paris for the 12th title. iranian state t.v. says the european union has failed to salvage the 2015 nuclear deal this despite a visit from german foreign minister and
8:16 am
a group of world powers the iranian government told us he must deliver more than just words on his visit here is what he had to say before he arrived in tehran. we want to exchange views in tehran on what further steps can be taken to help must fulfill our obligations but just as much iran to a discussion of less for less is not a debate we're prepared to have that's why i hope that we on both sides will find constructive ways of preserving the agreement in this discussion. i believe after all that iran must also have a political interest in ensuring that this agreement continues to exist in the future. this is this it's a crime fighter get. on iran nuclear deal was struck in 2015 between iran france germany britain russia china and the united states it was meant to restrict iran's ability to make nuclear weapons in exchange for relief from economic sanctions but
8:17 am
since donald trump pulled the u.s. out of the deal there's been rising tension between washington and tehran. the iran nuclear deal requires toronto to limit its atomic enrichment in verifiable ways so that it cannot make weapons and requires it to submit to international inspections . in return tehran is supposed to get relief from sanctions and gain access to frozen assets but the us has pulled out unilaterally and really imposed sanctions president obama made a deal the iran nuclear deal which was a terrible deal because it was a short term deal didn't do the trick i was very much against against the deal i terminated the deal on iran is a much different country today the u.s. has also sent additional warships to the middle east as part of a pressure campaign that some fear risks escalating into open conflict the other signatories to the nuclear deal insist they can still make it work. french
8:18 am
president emmanuel mccraw has tried to project unity from the european side while accommodating washington. d.c. we do share some of that is what we need to do 1st to be sure they don't get. meanwhile the re imposed economic sanctions have hit the iranian economy hard project the employment situation is a catastrophe those who have a store has to close it and look for another job those who have studied need to look for a job but where where are they going to work. the broader danger should iran break completely from the agreement is that a new nuclear arms race will take place the u.s. recently announced it wants to renegotiate with iran but tehran says the u.s. has not shown good faith. whenever they stop cruelty against a nation that put aside the cruel sanctions fulfill their commitments and return to the negotiating table which they themselves left the road is not closed for them.
8:19 am
the road is open how much. but as president trump has made clear over the past year the u.s. is unlikely to agree to any of that and trust among the parties is in short supply . you're ready for the very latest now we're joined by a.f.p. correspondent on air sea in tehran amir iranian foreign ministry spokesman just said on state t.v. that the e.u. has failed to salvage the 25th a nuclear deal given that what kinds are many for mr hope to achieve on his mission to tehran now. hello and thanks for having me a well it's a very delicate balancing act. it's really hard to say what your can do in this situation. iran does really believe that they have failed to live up to their commitments given that you're on the still reeling from the u.s. sanctions. use commitments force us into the same and channel that which was
8:20 am
supposed to facilitate iran to essential goods and probably even all trade has not come into effect just the pharmacist walk in and says well i think that the general level might be able to do is to deliver to iran europe's united methodist sum up to say that especially since the deadline that iran has set down for reducing its commitments in the call there are closing again what can they really hope this evening one meeting that would be really hard to say but. hopefully as gemma found itself in might be able to open up a dialogue and be able to put your in the forefront of talking to iran about the situation ok so we can see the foreign minister trying to keep a dialogue going there trying to keep the channels of communication open at least tell us then what impact at this point are u.s. led sanctions having on iran. well the sanctions are
8:21 am
definitely another thing go up in one way or another and on different levels 1st of all we have the current situation. in the past year or so and it's fluctuations are really hurting any business that's trying to work in iraq and we have the banking situation iran is basically not able to work with any foreign bank or far much want to work because of the feel of the sanctions we have the situation but there are always those that iran would not be able to sell us oil and now it's resorting to unconventional means put on hold as the oil minister says distance or of course we have other sanctions such as such or chemical metal sanctions which are having much less of an impact because they are much decentralized sectors that channel to be impacted like oil or banking but all of this linchpin in all of this is the foreign cars and situation which is hard to
8:22 am
think every average rainy i mean thank you very much for bringing us up state there that was a.f.p. correspondent amir kasi in tehran. well state 3 of the women's world cup in press and joining me to talk about the action is pablo foley ileus from d.w. sports public australia took on italy in yesterday's 1st match in its present well it was well quite a huge shock for a stray terry and everyone thought that they'd. it's me and they'd have absolutely no problem considering as well that they have superstar striker sam occur among their ranks but it wasn't to be but i don't want to give away all the details so we should do is actually take a look at the report. australia were awarded an early penalty and a chance for a dream start captain samantha current took responsibility fluffing her lines at
8:23 am
1st the full slotting home the rebound was a heavy touch from defending clint poking home allowed its release but i've been in a run i'm told in the 55th minute i was the strike is staying cool to draw her side level. with the game well into injury time it's only one of free kick. i've been in see i was under it's again to school and hand her side a dramatic late winner. the whistle went shortly after confirming that she won result i puts a pill to swallow for duck course it's all straight. better pill and dave what went wrong for australia well it was kind of almost what went right to more for italy in
8:24 am
many respects there and now this is a team that for 20 years and even they have even managed to get into the world cup so 1st and foremost no one thought that they'd be able to get past the strain of like i said before with the. you know players like sam kerr monger ranks but it's really exploded in the past few years and we're seeing that because there's a lot of quality players there it looks like they're working very well together and under their. better to lead me she said one thing that the team spirit in the 2nd half of the game was what made the difference in the game and now also it's important to note that you know we saw there the recall free kicks and bought a. not at home winner but also they were quite on looking in the game and to be against australia they had 2 of their goals allowed and that was because of the video systems referee and panic stations perhaps in australia after that result. not the only game talk about here we fans a nice yesterday got to see england beat scotland was that easy win for england
8:25 am
well england have actually despite winning against scotland they looked very sloppy it wasn't a very polished performance by any stretch we're taking a look here. this game here the hand that did this was a humble that gave him a chance to score from the penalty spot the key to paris convergent to make it one they'll never linus's doubled or leave before half time when white on the loose ball in the box. made it 21 and then scotland pulled a go back through clare in the 79th minute but like i said england looked far from polished it was definitely very sloppy and there's been quite a lot of criticism. for england's performance phil neville will really need to sort of pulled the team together and make sure that they they look a little bit better a little bit sort of more fluid and the team comes together for their next match and for today's game i will ask everybody to choose and watch definitely at japan
8:26 am
take on argentina they were the runners up of course japan in 2050 will be watching public. support thanks so much. now for one racing lewis hamilton of mercedes has won the canadian grown pre the british driver actually crossed the finish line just behind ferrari's sebastian vettel but the german had been penalized 5 seconds for rejoining the track in an unsafe manner hamilton remains at the top of the season's driver's stand. in tennis for a failed nidal is the french open champion once again in a repeat of last year's final nidal faced off with dominic team for the title and just like last year the spaniard continued his phenomenal spell of dominance to rack up a record breaking victory. it was a quick turnaround for the dominate team he only finished his mammoth 5 cent
