6:01 pm
the measures fleshed. out in the race to take place threesome may 11th but she's conservatives kicked off a contest to become prime minister and take over efforts to crack. i'm phil gale welcome to the program germany's foreign minister has been holding talks in iran aimed at salvaging the nuclear deal between iran and the international powers. revealed the difficulties when he told a news conference in tech crunch that germany was working to prevent the deal's complete failure is a rainy day counterpart mohamed just had sorry for describe just gushing says frank and serious and warned the united states against watching waging war as he called economic war against his country the 25th a nuclear deal was struck between iran on one side and france germany britain.
6:02 pm
russia china the united states but donald trump withdrew the u.s. last year re imposed economic sanctions and threatened sanctions against western companies who deal with iran. the iran nuclear deal requires tarantella 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 u.s. 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 and i was very much against it i was very much against the deal i terminated the deal and 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
6:03 pm
president emanuel mccraw has tried to project unity from the european side while accommodating washington really to do shoes in the fifty's when we need to do 1st you want to be sure they don't get you know with meanwhile the re imposed economic sanctions have hit the iranian economy hard are just ahead of us 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.
6:04 pm
the road is open how about. syria 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 . from independent iran. welcome to day w i went hypo mass asks tehran to stick with this deal does he have anything to offer beyond hope and good wishes. that's a good question i think the. mention foreign minister last mentioned the term miracle it seems as if europe has to pull off some miracles to do some wonders in order to have european businesses do trade with iran and that's the difficult parts i think the only thing that would really convince iranians would be clear concrete specific examples of how trade with iran can be up again can be normalized and that
6:05 pm
is the only thing that will make the iranians stick to the agreement europe has not been able to provide those those clear indications so why is teheran still listening to them i guess to iran really at the beginning and at the at the initial steps of the nuclear agreement was hoping to normalize its trade relations with europe and this is still something that many in the iranian political leadership are hoping that can somewhat be materialized in the chief but obviously the prospects for that are getting are getting more and more grim by the day. the iranian foreign minister mohammad javad zarif warned today that those waging economic war against terror could not expect to remain safe how do you interpret those words for i think for the iranian foreign minister isn't it is important to signal that iran can respond to these course of measures to what the iranians call
6:06 pm
economic warfare and that can have implications for u.s. interests in the region in the neighboring region of iran and i guess this is what the president or excuse me what foreign minister as i leave is this pointing to respond how. well by threatening the security of u.s. troops in the in the in the middle east for example by exerting pressure on u.s. allies in the region and what iran has always been saying of the point that iran has tried to make is that if if you ron is living in secure environment will make sure that the others are insecure as well so that the solutions are somewhat found to make sure that the security is generated for everyone and not for everyone but iran appreciate that was speculating but was was speculating on the on the basis of these words that were issued today and when you talk about iran threatening troops in the area you're talking about starting this the shooting again starting that
6:07 pm
excuse me david i said are you talking about you talk about an armed conflict are you talking about going off each other i think in fact what we really have to be clear about that is that there is an increased risk of these things happening we have the designation of the revolutionary guards that are present with troops in the region as a terrorist organization by the u.s. and the iranians have reciprocated that with calling centcom troops in the region as terrorist entities and the danger that some in some place this kind of escalation happens is really high but let me also stress that we have seen in issue to vhs from from different countries who try to make sure that this kind of escalation does not happen could talk to you thanks for joining us adnan it's about about. 95 people have been killed in an ethnic attack in central mali the latest massacre in an ongoing conflict between viable communities in the west african country it happened in the village of sabbahi kuwait is inhabited by
6:08 pm
members the doggone community officials unidentified gunmen attacked overnight virtually wiping out the entire village fighting between duggan hunters and rival falana herd has already left hundreds dead in the past year and a half. a scant more from that journalist i'm from posthumous in modest council because he joins us on the line welcome to the w what do we know about the provocation behind this. very little apart from what you already mentioned in your introduction this is part of an ongoing pattern of communal violence in an up. earlier this year when another village called ogle saddle was attacked with more than a $150.00 people dead this seems to be a revenge for that village who was majority inhabited but. this village as you mentioned 72 which is majority seems to be
6:09 pm
a communal element in the assailants came in in the dead of night. some reports even mention that there were inhabitants still inside around for there were burnt alive used guns and probably knives and left $200.00 people dead so if if this is part of this ongoing calm in all violence what happens now does this get investigated as a crime or does it get does it get investigated as a start in a part of a war. that's a good question. because the terminology matters a great deal here the states the government has already come out using the word terrorist. which. supposed to look at it from a law and order perspective whereas the local mayor has been claiming that the people who were behind this attack were fulani herdsman which would presuppose that there is a more of a communal element to this and it's probably both the massacre in over struggle
6:10 pm
that i mentioned earlier was investigated not by the your phone but by the u.n. peacekeeping or organization and asked by a single that out of the traitors it's up to the mali and justice system of these the to bring these people to book from the authorities the so what you see most of the time is stay sickly handwringing. talking to you thank you for joining us surgeon mr brown possumus in the bamako. well take a look now at some of the other stories making news around the world a course in india has sentenced 3 hindu madge of life in prison for their role in the rape and murder of an 8 year old rose with. 3 police officers received 15 year sentences for destroying evidence girl's death sparked outrage and inflamed religious tensions in indian controlled kashmir. a russian course was granted early release through a leading human rights advocates for your but i headed monitoring in the autonomous

settlements on the banks of the tigris river. the elusive dam is about 60 kilometers south east of here planned as early as 1950 s. the dams purpose is to produce hydro electric power but from the beginning there was opposition to the project local residents like more at stake in try to have it stops. them and always say yes it would generate electricity. only of what could be gained by flipping a place like this. this dam will produce just one percent of the energy that turkey needs thinking. about 50000 people will lose their homes to the dam most have been resettled in a new town along with some of the historical monuments. to secure his livelihood phaedrus article important part of land for a new hotel in the new town. i'm going to take up everything here and take the soil

6:15 pm
therefore the country's prime minister formally got underway today 11 candidates through their hats into the ring in a contest dominated by britain's efforts to leave the european union but wait his favorite is boris johnson they former foreign minister and london mayor was the face of the leave campaign if he becomes prime minister he says he will take the country out of the e.u. on the 31st of october deal or no deal another hotly tipped contender is environed minister michael gove a high profile leave campaign in 2016 he ended boris johnson's last leadership bed by withdrawing his support alerting his own campaign has to go 1st back street amazed strategy and says he can unite the conservative party dominate garage is next he resigned as teresa mayes a 2nd bret said the minister over the prime minister's deal after only 5 months in the job he says he will broker a fairer deal with a unique losing be negotiating the northern ireland border issue and here's
6:16 pm
a jeremy hunt britain's foreign minister he says he's confident that the european union would renegotiate the brics a deal with him is regarded as even tempered incompetent but some feel he may lack the wide appeal of other candidates. so let's go to london where we're joined by charlotte potts. so every time that it's of given statements of the 11 confidence of given statements about their plans today how do they position themselves. well most of the candidates have made clear that this really is about the future of the conservative the tory party because if there was a general election to be held to then labor would have a good chance of winning and jeremy coleman would be the next prime minister so the candidates called for unity today within the tory party and what became clear is that brics it still is at the center stage of this race so all candidates say they
6:17 pm
want to leave the european union by october. the new deadline they want the u.k. to leave the european union by that deadline and they also say that they could renegotiate this deal that to reason may have hashed out over the last couple of years with the european union that's also at the center stage of this race so they say we can make a better deal than to rescind may the problem here is that the european union has already said we are not going to new renegotiate that deal so how those candidates are actually planning to renegotiate that remains a matter of debate another point where they differ on those breaks that issue for example michael gove's and jeremy hunt they have already said that they might ask the european union for and neither extension for october 1st and boris johnson and dominic robb on the other hand they have said we would leave the
6:18 pm
european union without a deal so potentially with chaotic consequences on october 31st there's that a clear front runner at this stage. well a lot can happen in this conservative leadership race we have seen that with theresa may nobody bet on her back then and she became conservative leader and prime minister michael go for example he is a front runner but he admitted to taking crew to having taken cocaine over 20 years ago and received a lot of criticism for that of course cocaine being an illegal drug jeremey hunt today received a lot of prominent endorsements from the cabinet so he is a front runner but the very clear front runner with the most momentum at the moment is the former foreign secretary and. of the new for a friend of boris johnson he has a lot of momentum for this race at the moment and as things stand right now he
6:19 pm
could win this race and could you talk us to briefly through what's expected to happen through this race i don't know. so we'll see a lot of complaining from those candidates over the next weeks 1st of all the tory members of parliament in the driving seat they will vote and eliminate the candidates until 2 are remaining and those 2 remaining candidates the names will be sent off to the party membership base and they will decide then who becomes the conservative leader and thereby the new prime minister of the united kingdom a lot of parts in london thank you. now to hong kong where opposition leaders say that more than a 1000000 people turned out of the weekend to protest against plans to allow the extradition of suspects so the chinese mainland despite the process the island's chief executive says she will not scrap the legislation critics say these changes would give beijing free rein to pursue political opponents in hong kong they've

6:25 pm
denounce this this trend but so far we have unfortunately seen no other other international governments coming out to denounce what is happening and there are now many many other reports saying that people are struggling to stay informed in sudan of not only just what is happening but where the safe spaces are where they can go monitor where the violence is know who may or may not have been killed and how many people and just try to start having their voices heard and have their demands heard to have a full transition to a civilian government must raise the thank you. fine. thank you. sport that start with football and kicked off their women's world cup campaign 21 win over old rival scotland is a chance to score from the penalty box of a key to paris converted to the long. before half time when white
