uranium and demonstrators return to sudan's streets repeating their demands for civilian rule clashes with security forces result in the least 10 reported deaths scores of people have been injured. golf it's good to have you with those police in hong kong have retaken control of the legislative council building after protesters stormed an occupied it elise moved into the building after clearing the streets of anti-government protesters with tear gas this happened just a few hours ago they were able to enter the main chamber without meeting any resistance of the sharp escalation in violence comes on the 22nd anniversary of the former british colonies return to china. henri for more on this
9:02 pm
now i'm joined by the jury she was born. so talk to me about what is going on in your home country what did we see today do you think this was something that was planned to escalate the situation or was this just spontaneous violence it's not spontaneous. it's just happened right at the moment because these people who tried to stop the problem and i actually they have been gathering in the area since dawn since midnight last night and i think they have been discussing about this and actually they start to trying to break. off. so this is not exactly spontaneous but. pat what about the government's reaction i mean there were no police inside the building at all and we were watching the live coverage of the demonstrators they were in the chamber they had free rein and then we were told eventually the police
9:03 pm
were going to begin evacuating the building so what was the government doing there were they caught off guard yeah actually protests they were expecting there will be a lot of police and when they go inside they were expected to be expected. and then when they entered it was actually to empty and they were very surprised and many generous with very surprised as well because before they started inside the parliament there were some sitting inside but then they didn't seem to be very careful and so many people are now speculating that this is actually a strategy used by the police 1st of all because. in hong kong what nations see these pictures of. violence they will probably not support the supporters and all and so this is one kind of strategy used to this is maybe a time to let them go in. the chain. and let the images show what has been done
9:04 pm
there also we understand there were arrests made after this is that part of this strategy of the police so father has been no arrest made but no one really knows why but there are also people people reporting that as these protests they were taking transpose to go home and they were checking all these buses on many buses saw texas and maybe later today we see some wrist the chief executive of hong kong curie lead you know these protesters have been demanding she resigned and we heard anything from her so far she hasn't spoken yet but then days just a press release from the government actually just a few minutes ago that she was speak in an hour or so which is foyer i mean the home call so many people are expecting maybe she would say something because foyer and to have a press conference is that it's also a good time to make sure that people aren't awake to hear you as well interesting
9:05 pm
ok do we use jury jim thank you gerri. well here's some of the other stories now that are making headlines around the world a car bombing and gun battle in the afghan capital kabul have left at least 6 people dead and more than 80 others wounded the blast during rush hour targeted the afghan defense ministry before gunman special forces the taliban islamist militant group has claimed responsibility if the opi is prime minister has warned that he is prepared to die to defend ethiopia's sovereignty now this follows a coup attempt in the region attackers shot dead of her as governor and other officials on june 22nd the opposition has accused the government of using the incident to arrest opposition figures the paris firefighters who battled the flames at notre dame cathedral in april have been on by france's interior and defense ministries the cathedral spire and roof were destroyed but firefighters managed to
9:06 pm
save the belt how were in many works of art inside hundreds of firefighters arrived on the scene in under 10 minutes. the united nations and the european union are urging iran to stick to the 2015 nuclear deal after officials confirmed today that iran has broken the limit on enrich uranium which was set by that agreement now this is tehran's 1st major departure from the deal which offered sanctions relief in exchange for limits on your brain even richmond iranian foreign minister mohammad javad zarif has claimed that breaking the deal's limit is justified he's accused signatories of failing to uphold their part of the deal the united states abandoned the agreement last year and it has since reimpose sanctions on iran as a reef says tehran's moves are about defending the countries of. about that but it's only by illustrating authority that we can put the us in their place during
9:07 pm
negotiations if such talks are needed. because we will never accept yielding to pressure but if someone respects us they will have our respect in return the world must talk to us with respect and not threaten iranians. are and i'm joined now by natasha she is a political scientist at the university of essex spreads it's good to have you on the show so what we're looking at today a breach of the nuclear deal is this a dangerous development. what's definitely a dangerous development and i think it's something that european countries in particular the european union that had worked so hard to try to get the 20 kids team deal in place was hoping would not have been i think they were working really hard behind the scenes to try to create some sort of bartering system that would enable countries to trade with iran but it wasn't really set up that way it was
9:08 pm
only set up to deal with humanitarian goods and supplies and whatever they tried to put together at the last minute using sort of creative methods that just didn't work iran said it really wasn't a feeling its needs and so now iran has put europe in a corner where there's really not that much that europe can do it can't really go against the u.s. and i don't see it going against us and doing something to really challenge the u.s. but it also has to make a stance against iran and already the u.k. has said that it's figuring out what it's going to do and that there will be consequences for this but it doesn't want to make such a strong stance that it completely leaves no option of ever returning to the deal i think they want to sort of quietly through their diplomatic channels or even overtly try to convince iran to not go too far of low levels of enrichment and
9:09 pm
so that they could somehow come back to the deal what do you make the if there is strategy here in iran increasing its uranium enrichment very demanding more work from europe and certainly they know that europe probably can't do more than it's done already so what's what's in iran's engagement here. well i think there's 2 things going on i mean one of the things that you could tell from the foreign minister dr zarif statement is that iran wants to be treated with respect but that is almost more important than the result that they want to be treated with. legitimately that they are tired of what they perceive to be u.s. imperialism u.s. aggression u.s. arrogance and they just won't stand for what the u.s. has just done and they're willing to do that you know regardless of whether or not that leads to some sort of positive outcome the more strategic view would be that
9:10 pm
they're trying to put enough pressure on europe so that europe will find some way to keep the deal in place but i don't know if europe's want to be able to do that under the current u.s. administration for president i'm sure there's that joining us from the university of essex professor as always we appreciate your insights thank you thanks for having me. activists in sudan say at least 11 people were killed in clashes with security forces during mass pro democracy protests on sunday tens of thousands flooded the streets of the capital khartoum demanding a transition to civilian rule it was the 1st mass rallies in sudan's ruling military council violently crackdown on demonstrators on june 3rd yesterday's protest came on the date of the african union had set as a deadline for sedans military to hand over power to the bill.
9:11 pm
are just more about what's going on in sudan i'm joined now by the sudanese activists an artist ahmed some he is based here in berlin i mean it's good to have you on the show appreciate you coming in to talk with this you support the protesters demands and how confident are you that they can be achieved to mean what we're seeing now is sudan security forces cracking down on the demonstrators the cut they've turned off the internet i mean where are you getting your optimism from disparate this is where determined since 1000 of december in office of a month down the street there were a lot of crackdowns instead of june the military the military council dave tractor traumatized his movement by a backpack in this protest as killing more than 120 people and now dead just said a set of june is for the declaration for the movement that we are still there and we're still fighting it and they came out the street more than before that declaring that the leadership of this change that has that they have to get change for a transitional civilian authority that given the country to are the democratic change
9:12 pm
the talks between students military council and the protest leaders we know they broke down last month is trying to restart the negotiations is that the best way forward i mean do you believe you can talk with the military i think there is there is like most of his in his protest are united under the leadership of deterioration of freedom and change and the creation of freedom and change they have sede vacante . really that they need the investigation committee that supported by international community to do this to get into crime that happened said of june and then there was a mediation from that u.p.i. which is actually accepted by the duration of freedom agenda rejected by transition military council but after after yesterday obviously have changed because this is was very clear that he needs have their voice the street again and then that we will not rest until this transition happens which is very clear and very pressure for the for the transition intercoms and they have to accept or just need to continue to a more more conflict that they cannot control it anymore but the spirit of the civil society and the people are not are not under the will of their tradition that
9:13 pm
your council your among those so i think sudan you're calling attention to the protest movement what is the message that you would like to send to the governments or international bodies outside of your home country about what's going on. foot soldiers emanation for civilian government democratic agenda is a very basic you basic human demands for political change and on and i think international community they have to fulfill their duties by supporting this change and not intervening in a negative way that the world over to produce more dictatorship or military dictatorship sudan is actually to produce democratic countries they need to support civilian transition to if you're getting the support from the african union for example but europe the un are you getting what you need african union is standing up in a very good position they are supporting this change for transition and for the for the civil authority and that actually also back bay there have been
9:14 pm
a bag by the americans but until when this would continue that was actually that this is a new sport the start are not truly confident was it so they need this change to happen fast because also it did there's an internet interest for a stabilization of the country but also there's internists interest for the for the from the part this doesn't have a civilian government and this is a whole new way that determine the sudanese future relationship is international community all right and we appreciate you coming in sharing your stories with this hopefully next time we talk we can talk about progress thank you. here's a reminder that top story we're following for you police in hong kong have fired tear gas and protesters have retaken parliament hours after demonstrators broke into the assembly the violence took place on the 22nd anniversary of the territory's return to chinese rule protesters are angry about the planned bill that would allow extradition to china. you're watching news at live from berlin coming up next e.-w.
