of iran did not want the world to see buses torched crowds angry over huge hiking gas prices the revolutionary guard warning the public to back down or else tonight the ayatollah is blaming the u.s. calling protesters saugus and some of those protesters they're now publicly calling for the ayatollah to go i'm berlin this is the day. this is not the regime that pays us for our sacrifice. protest is different from riots the entire nation has the right to protest. he said setting a bank on fire is not an end run by the people this is what thugs for the world.

come and. i own a car to use it not to plug the road it's. also coming up german race driver sophia flourish is back in the driver's seat hugging the curves at full speed one year ago one of those hugs turned into a hit at 170 miles per hour in the corner i started crying it happened so fast no thing gets deployed saw the video it didn't know that i was fighting for me it didn't feel that bad i meant to pain so that kicking in. our viewers on p.b.s. in the united states and all around the world welcome we begin the day with maximum pressure on the leaders of iran and this time it's coming not from us sanctions but rather from angry iranians 3 days ago the government began rationing gasoline and at the same time doubled the. price protests erupted across the country the pain at

the gas pump becoming political and deadly at least 2 people have been killed in violence but a clampdown on the internet is making it hard to confirm what exactly is happening . is it the drastic policy change over gasoline the result of sanctions in the us is policy of maximum pressure or are the protests symptoms of a homegrown discontent with the clerics at the top of the islamic republic what we do know tonight the supreme leader is accusing the u.s. of supporting violent unrest in the country and the revolutionary guard warned if the public does not restore order in the guards will and yet those daring to defy the government are showing no signs of intimidation take a look now at what one woman dared to do on the bridge over a highway crowded by cars and people going nowhere.

6 and for more now we want to bring in the iranian activist author and journalist must see only new jobs she is in the united states but she has close contact with the people in iran and she joins me tonight from new york city mostly it's good to have you on the program on your twitter account today you posted that video of an iranian woman removing her his job challenging iran's rulers she publicly calls for the ayatollah to be executed. this this woman she's taking her own life into were during his by doing that would you say that this is

a rare expression of opinion or is this something that is beginning to represent the majority of the people in iran. let me tell you from the beginning this protest is beyond beyond the fuel price increase the people who are actually taking to that street and protesting they are chanting against the whole clerics they are chanting against the islamic republic and this is actually the 1st time people who believe any job doesn't even it up people who are you know religion numbered agents working class middle class to gather and they are actually saying that we are fed up with the islamic republic which is a shocking and right now it's the level of violence against the people people are facing live bullets people are being killed in the streets of tehran and different cities across iran. i mean those are claims that we are not able to

verify partly because of this internet blackout in iran tell me how are you getting the information that you're getting about what's happening in the country. now some of the people actually using a university's y. 5 which is not a lot some of them using the wife eye of governmental institutions because a lot of people who even work for to be government they are unhappy. this has been the 1st time in our history that for 3 days the internet has shut down almost most of the country and that actually shows you this sign of the panic which the government are facing because they are now scared all these people that think they're out of control and they cannot control them so the videos that you receive actually showing that more than 100 people got killed more than a 1000 people got arrested and this is turning into the level of violence thinking

of cobra november 1978 during the last month of the shop when the military try to impose order based on reports from inside iran and the videos that i have been receiving you know people are actually from different cities and town taking to street actually saying that we want the rest of the war to hear us we are like hostage in iraq so we are like prisoners in iraq so it sounds like you're what you're describing is the conditions for yet another revolution that today we have the revolutionary guard warning that if the unrest does not stop decisive action will be taken so there you have a threat right there for a military crackdown are you saying that we are looking at the beginnings of another revolution in their oil. to me it is just the beginning of another

revolution because i know these people from working class middle class they have to try get a chance to reform the us government just regime and it didn't work look at what jobs are eat and president rouhani has been saying to the rest of the war calling iran and island of the stability but you ronnie's not right now is suffering from economy you know pressure here on is suffering from so should not have lack of social freedom these governments who do not allow people to dance to seeing to choose their own like a study to look industry to really i'm choose what they want to wear this government never allow people to protest peacefully jabot say it was using twitter and saying that john's ideas are foreign minister clearly got iranian people have the right to vote and have the right to protest when my south pole yes or no as you know that you're in the united states and you know that for a long time it has been u.s.

policy that pressure now under president trump maximum pressure on iran will eventually lead to a regime change from within and are you saying then that the policy that the us has pursued is now beginning to bear fruit. let me tell you something this is the behavior of the government leading people to you know i asking for revolution for having regime change this is the crux in iran not just the maximum pressure from outside and i'm not saying that given the fact but let me tell you something when the iran deal happened people did to destry done so that he can get a deal but the same people were asking for another deal which was human rights so after the deal the government to spend the money in jaffa in syria in lebanon and that is why actually the main is still going in the streets right now people are chanting and angry then telling the government that do not to spend the money in

the middle east we are suffering from not having bread not having electricity not having grown equal to not having being paid our salaries for months and months but what we need from the united states and the rest of the world especially the e.u. make this government discuss this takers it countable because they're killing the people they don't allow the journalists so they report about the the violence ok we don't need and to refer from president trump our state directly from jail when he took an action when he joined the united estate yes unfortunately we're out of time but we appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts with this your passion and thoughts about the current situation in iran a must see a new judge joining us tonight from new york city was he thank you thank you for having me or iran's leaders are not backing down claiming that the protests have morphed into violence i want you to take

a listen to how the government is describing the protesters and then listen to reaction from u.s. secretary of state mike pompei you. see you know a lot about the methods have changed they came with knives and fire instead of just chanting slogans and protesting and they started attacking public facilities including military ones on the united states is monitoring the ongoing protests in iran closely we condemn strongly any acts of violence committed by this regime against the iranian people and i deeply concerned by reports of several fatalities we've been at that since the beginning of this administration. the islamic republic must cease violence against its own people and should immediately restore the believe all arranged to access a free and open internet the world watching their own people enjoy a better future when their government begins to respect basic human rights abandons its revolutionary. posture and its destabilizing foreign policy in the region and

behave simply like a normal nation the choice is clearly with the regime and that was the u.s. secretary of state there mike pompei of let's take the story to the u.s. capitol our correspondent public polling in the us joins me now from washington d.c. good evening to you so we just heard from the u.s. secretary of state what is the white house policy now on this latest wave of protests in iran. hi brands well i mean i think it's pretty clear from what we heard there from the secretary of state very strong words there against the iranian regime you know basically he's saying that the you know the united states is monitoring those ongoing protests in iran and that they're deeply concerned also by the reports. in the country now and you know it was quite interesting to hear what he said there quite you know

a threatening words in some ways in staying that you know the world is watching and that you know demanding once again that the iranian people have access to you know free and open internet for example so that they can access information at which they claim you know you know the free press the such i am now in that same press conference which was interesting at my pompei also brought up another big point of course for the united states which is that the new clear program of iran the united states says that it's terminating its sanctions waiver and related to iran's at fordo nuclear plants and that's where the united nations atomic watchdog has actually said that iran has been at enriching uranium so you know in many respects it's very own surprising what we've heard there from the secretary of state mike. you know public we heard earlier in this program from activists and she said that corruption in the government in the bureaucracy. that

corruption has been basically been festering no for a very long time and she said that that is behind mainly behind these protests is that being reported in the u.s. that we are would you say that there's a feeling at the state department maybe a also at the white house that these protests or a result of president drum's policy of maximum pressure on tehran. it's a it's you know it's a bit of both but more so here you know we're coming up to the one year mark of the beginning of trumps you know the trumpet ministrations maximum pressure and campaign there is a feeling on so i would say that it is working you know the iranian economy has been so freeing and the impact of that is beginning to trickle down to you know people on the street and that's something that's hard to ignore according to washington you know and many respects what might pompei was said in that press

conference was sort of sort of hinting or just to reckon saying it and i mean the figures sort of back it up and that's what what's being said over here in the united states iran's g.d.p. is dropping considerably more so than was expected and they're saying that that has a direct it's because of this maximum pressure policy which is exploiting essentially the weaknesses in iran's what they claim is already a weak economy and also one of the biggest problems which is of course directly related to the to the iranian economy is their banking system which is being severely impacted by this maximum pressure policy high unemployment and then of course you know like you've been mentioning the increase in the price of petrol which of course affects every day life for iranians so you know overall like i said they're seeing it you know basically that washington's policy is working if they want if washington is seeing success inside iran you know there's news today

suggests there is not success outside of the wrong we've seen leaked diplomatic cables this is a big story published in the washington post today that says iran has 3 warded practically or u.s. attempts to block 2 wrongs influence in the neighboring iraq it's a huge story has there been reaction. there's been plenty reaction i mean obviously here in the united states a lot of people are talking about it also we saw that you know a lot of details were actually pushed published in the new york times on in the intercept of the leak essentially what it did was a textbook iran's. basically vast influencing in neighboring iraq and it basically detailed the efforts tehran went to to basically spy on the iraqi leaders and you know every aspect of political life and obviously you know this dates back 220142015 so the big talking point here is how detailed and

how you know involved they were in iraq you know politic political life or their corresponding really also on the story for us in washington thank you. researchers have been warning for years about the rise of superbugs antibiotic resistant bacteria well despite this the danger is higher than ever well this is the start of the world health organization's world antibiotic awareness week here's a look now at the threat posed by the super books. before the mid 20th century contracting a bacterial infection could easily kill you the age of antibiotics was ushered in by alexander fleming who discovered penicillin back in the late 1920 s. and was later awarded the nobel prize for his work antibiotics at the scene for

a paradigm shift in medicine they've saved countless lives but bacteria evolve and a few of them always survive the encounter with the medicine pathogens eventually acquire resistance 1st to one then to more and more antibiotics then they multiply and pass it on they can even share their resistance with other microbes some multi resistant super bugs are no impervious to practically the entire arsenal of antibiotics at our disposal. and research and antibiotics has advanced nearly as much as in other fields of medical research big pharma is interest and then evaporated around 20 new major classes of antimicrobials were discovered between the 1940 s. and sixty's but over the last 60 years just 2 new classes of the drugs have been approved. meanwhile the problem of multi resistance has grown increasingly acute

experts estimate multi resistant pathogens killed around $700000.00 people worldwide last year but there's still no comprehensive global plan for dealing with them. and for more now i'm joined by dr tim munns from the robert institute here in berlin he heads a unit that researches antibiotic resistance doctors good to have you on the show so why are we seeing this resistance is it because when we go to the doctor the doctor is just just too willing to prescribe us an antibiotic yet says one we several reasons and in different settings for somebody in high income countries is just this is one of the we. isn't the high income countries too much describing of and to be audix. to underbid it was distant but if you have a global look this is different for example in poor countries in low income countries

there is not so much too much use of antibiotics it's more wrong use and all the other things like no toy leds and no good houses what about the wrong use because we hear from the doctors that if we are prescribed an antibiotic we should take it all the way through to the even if we're feeling better but a lot of people don't do that right so they're not really killing the bacteria completely is that what is happening yet says there are new research on this that sometimes say is perhaps it's not necessary to take so long for example years ago folks pneumonia we said 10 days then it was 7 days now we are in 5 days only 5 days in the monkeys it's enough so this is not so much a problem of course you have to take the under biotics as long as the doctors tell you and not stop it yourself we running out of the antibiotics i think we are we are away from the possum to be able to take times but but we have to be very much

aware because resistance is rising in many countries and in many parts of the world and we have to use and abuse of which we have in a wise way which is very important really take them only if the doctor is describing it and you have to know that it is often not necessary because most infections. by when you go to the doctor and for example if you have the global view you have we have to support other countries with the health system if you have a good whole health system you use it in a better way than to be and what about the drug makers the pharmaceutical companies are they doing enough to come up with new medications to replace these and about it's not i think that they. i don't do enough there they have no interest because they can't so much money was under biotics with as with tracks and but but we have to understand that anyway a new track is are just to postpone the problem was underbid it was the things we have to and it new antibiotics are only

a small piece for the whole bro but i'm much more important i think at the moment is you with these tracks which we have in a better way. in the human side and all the others be good infection control and new antibiotics and in that moment economy lie on the document do you think that we can rely on people's to own people to do that because you can't control the entire population of there are so many people is there another option is there is there something that goes beyond trying to use antibiotics to treat bacterial infections has nothing in view in the next 10 years their research is working on different things but not a reader we have nothing else we need we need under we audit for medicine how we do it today and absolutely necessary we need to be adi dr jim edmonds with the robert costa institute with the latest on you know bacteria and biopics in resistant structure and we thank you thank you.

well the german race drivers are fearful hersh is at the wheel again this weekend she returned to compete on the same street circuit where one year ago she crashed into the wall the 18 year old escaped with just a fractured vertebrae. sophia flourish at the start of the race at the fateful track in macau. she didn't make any mistakes in this year's race but just 6 laps from the end to a technical problem forced her to withdraw. $2900.00 sal unfortunately but it was really awesome how is such a special event and it was a bit unfortunate not with a technical defect but last year i didn't finish not this yet 2 times bad luck so next the out it's very lucky. this weekend she was once again face to face with the corner where her accident happened. 1st there so last year it was
