india are calling for a wider vaccination rollout as the country faces a staggering surge in corona virus cases nearly 97000 new infections were reported on tuesday close to monday's. more than half of the total cases recorded in the past 2 weeks have occurred in one western state. diplomats have been meeting in the austrian capital vienna for talks aimed at salvaging the iran nuclear deal european countries are mediating between iran and the united states to try to bring washington back into the agreement that the trumpet to destruction walked away from both tehran and washington said that the meeting was constructive more talks are scheduled for friday. this is news from berlin you can follow us on twitter and facebook or you can go to our website that's dot com.

the united states and iran are on the same page when it comes to wanting to revive the nuclear deal which former presidents from trying to destroy but how to do that is where the 2 remain far apart no one direct talks began today in vienna non direct as in the arabians and the americans are not even in the same room the germans french and british are shuttling back and forth delivering divans tonight washington in tehran who will bleat 1st what if both blink at the same time i'm burnt off in berlin this is the day. that although we are neither optimistic not pessimistic about the outcome of this meeting our overarching goal is to ensure that iran's nuclear program is permanently and verifiably constrained me won't the us should return to the

comprehensive agreement from conditionally she felt we certainly will not entertain a unilateral gestures or concessions to get iran to induce iran to a better place because the islamic republic of iran is in turn ready to swiftly return to his commitments upon the verification of other parties fulfilling that commitments cutting down on of iran will not be able to obtain a nuclear weapon. also coming up the pandemics of purgatives of india the world's biggest producer of corona virus vaccines now add to that the country where the virus is spreading fast is and the country with 100000 new cases in a single day it's i wonder who made in that group that you'd behave yet to. once and for the right don't go out of the house and if necessary avoid growth. people

collecting in clothes dorms maintain social distancing and never never step out of your house without a mom. but to our viewers on p.b.s. in the united states and to all of you around the world welcome we begin the day with iran and the united states and the futile exercise of trying to pick up where they left off before donald trump got in the way it was a campaign promise that trump followed through on as u.s. president he withdrew the u.s. from the iran nuclear deal known as the j c p a way calling it the worst deal ever that was 2008 seems fast forward to the present us president joe biden wants to revive the j c p a way iran apparently is also interested because in direct talks between the 2 began today in austria but the past 3 years with new u.s. sanctions against iran plus iran's uranium enrichment in violation of the deal none of this can be undone or ignored to say that trust is in short supply here would be

an understatement to say that washington will lift sanctions 1st as tehran is dead demanding well that still seems to be wishful thinking the europeans find themselves caught in the middle and the world wonders how to put the iran nuclear deal back together again we have this report. starting on tuesday delegates in this hotel began discussions on reviving the nuclear agreement with iran and boys from france germany britain russia and china are in talks with iran and acting as intermediaries with the u.s. . iran has high expectations. on state television a government spokesman projects confidence. he says the talks are a good sign for the future but he says iran has conditions one is that sanctions must be lifted a spokesman for the u.s.

state department says they will work to ensure that both sides can return to the agreement in a mutual return but in return for an end to sanctions the u.s. is demanding that iran stop supporting terrorist groups and on the part of the united states the international nuclear agreement was put into place in 2015 on the me truly understanding there would be no iranian nuclear program and in return restrictions on iran's economy would be eased 3 years later u.s. president trump unilaterally terminated the program for iran the stakes are high the country wants to sell oil again and hopes for an end to economic sanctions and my 1st guest tonight is an authority on iran u.s. relations in america trita parsi is executive vice president of the quincy institute for responsible state craft he joins me tonight from washington should it's good to have you back on the day the u.s. the u.s. state department just released a statement calling these indirect talks the 1st a healthy exercise

a healthy exercise in what is a healthy exercise and wellness see at the patients that is required to be able to put the. doctor it's going to be a very tough journey it's not going to be easy either side some very valuable time was lost in the 1st part of this year but at least now there is some sort of a process in the making it's not a perfect process it would be much better if the 2 sides talk directly to each other but that appears not like you are till there is 1st class on a how to make sure that the united states can come back into full compliance with the oath as well as the our. no former u.s. president donald trump torpedoed the deal or tried to when he withdrew the us from it thank you 28 team is it safe to say that the ghost of the trump years haunts these and perhaps future talks oh it's not just a ghost of goofy traps that the trumpet ministration very carefully put together

over the course of the last year and which $1600.00 sanctions were put in place many of them redundant and duplicative but they're deliberately in order to make it as difficult as possible for biden or any other president to want to return to j.c. these sanctions were not meant to be leverage they were not meant to do anything but what they're exactly right now which is to make it flow mysie as difficult as possible can you give me an example trudeau what is a saying that would be extremely difficult for president biden to get rid of. well the process that will make it difficult for instance that the. earlier on create sanctions have been imposed on the iran central fact the g.a.c. fate lifted all sections those sanctions that sanctions relief and the sanctions were put in place on the 1st time as a result of the nuclear issue trump then when and eve reimposed those nuclear

sanctions and then he sanctioned the central back again on terrorism grounds and the calculation was that the j.c.t. returned with only lifted that j.c. created the nuclear sections and it would not then be able to lift the sanctions if they were imposed on terrorism grouses wisha means that for the iranians no difference whatsoever will be made because this action will still be in place by just on their name and that calculation is that it will be difficult for him to justify lifting sanctions on terrorism grounds mindful of the fact that there has been no negotiations between the united states and iran on that specific issue let's talk a little bit about the timing of these indirect talks iranian elections are due to take place in june does that please additional pressure on the uranium signs it puts admission of pressure on all sides because once the iranians are actually in their election season it's not really going to be particularly possible for

that's a negotiating for i have to admit i am a little bit surprised that what we're seeing today actually is taking place because we're already inside of the. election season and usually countries do not negotiate important matters like this in the middle of their negotiations certainly do that and in the middle of their election certainly the united states so we're already you know on borrowed time and if we wait for too long that it will be completely lost i know you say the decisions will the real decisions will not be made in vienna but but rather in washington d.c. tell me what you mean with that. what i mean though is that it's very. nice to work in groups to figure out. what's toughest still is not the finding us. thing is to actually fight straight do those things precisely that this it means lifting up to 1600 sections many of the terrorism.

that is going to be at the political so in some ways the real action is actions based in washington that's what the real test is to see where the finest has the will and the political capital to get. the quincy institute for responsible state craft is going to have you on the program we appreciate your time and your insights tonight thank you thank you so much. to poot concrete positive agenda. 3. people 2 people. now as the president of the european council talking after meeting turkish president. today and the e.u. and turkey are looking to reset their relationship after

a rocky year brussels came very close to imposing sanctions on turkey after a disagreement over gas exploration in the mediterranean almost morphed into a military confrontation at today's high level meetings in place in ankara at a time when most talks are held virtually this face to face meeting it underlines just how important a new beginning is for both the e.u. and turkey well after she met with turkish president the president of the european commission ursula fund a lion spoke to reporters. we are aiming for an honest partnership and that means that a partnership between the e.u. in tripoli and ablest us to strengthen what brings us closer but also to be very frank and to address what divides us and today show michelle and i clearly underlined that respect for fundamental rights and the rule of law are crucial for

the european union this must be an integral part of our relationship gippi must respect international human rights rules and standards to which by the way the country has committed itself as a founding member of the council of europe. want to bring in. she's a fellow at the center for applied to turkey studies at the german institute for international and security affairs she joins me tonight from madrid it's good to have you on the program what do you make of today's talks are we seeing now a positive reset of relations between the e.u. in turkey. well actually it's quite symbolic that we have watched your leaders in one crack to date bits i wouldn't be so fast so getting into the completion that they will be positive reset because i think it is

going to do you leaders the ball is in turkey's court right now because to do a live protest that they have announced in the european council means it meeting tonight saying that if things go well the deescalation needs to meet the training and sustain for example that it will ringback be after the to its end very close to a dent on the table if things go bad on the other hand the least of pristiq the measures sanctions is also. on the table i think with today's visit the you have the most weight that it has each rests in a low functioning relationship with turkey and put all of atlanta on the table but as i sad the ball is on turkey's for right now what do you make of the talk of respect for human rights abuses that just window dressing and at the end of the day that you still needs turkey to prevent millions of refugees from heading towards europe. i think beyond

a refugee. egremont between zurich and the european union the turkey has recently been a mite's treated like insert country and that is essentially a candidate country for a us session so if turkey's proceeds as that as a 3rd country in the neighborhood i used to look is not necessarily focusing on at the 1st state to its primary stance on states on democracy and human rights but it's mainly on the operation on foreign policy and democracy but to date exceptionally we have seen. attention to basically said freedoms both by themselves and on the lion and i knew that my is now that this was the at the end of the crash that was coming from both from the european parliament some member states and the united states as well let me ask you about that help much has the change of the white house with

a new president how much does it have to do with president there to one suddenly improve the attitude to dealing with the e.u. . i would states humor is. a very key impact because i think it has 22 dimensions. had a very gruesome nice relationship with and at the end this was not necessarily in line with. the practices and secondly he constantly undermined tom's atlantic relations so both these diamond says that it did not necessarily support the use attitudes toward stookey now things have changed. and there doesn't biden and i strongly believe that school breaking on turkey is on there it's an op and journalist leaks today they are even saying that it was a meeting between tense and south and the us ambassador to turkey yesterday night

pry into this meeting with byzantine on some of this this is something that's that's interesting i'm glad you were able to tell us about that turkey issued a statement we understand saying it's long term objective remains membership in the european union but isn't this more a case of brussels looking for a framework of engagement which frankly does not foresee turkey ever joining. to be honest wrens and i strongly think that we are missing a new framework off the relationship being built in a decent a sneeze weeks months and the exhaustion negotiations framework will be removed from the table when the right time comes i think the new leaders not coming up with this stool approach mainly based on sustainable and good neighborly relations deliberation in the senate training and then the includes carrots on economic incentives in various things mentioned high levels i will call on overarching

problems like global health or climate change that exactly use different items on the table and for me these aren't a corner stones these aren't the breaks off the new framework that they are trying to deal between so again the opinion. oka toy here with the german history for international and security affairs it's good to have you on the program we appreciate your time and your insights tonight thank you thank you very much for having me. researchers from oxford university have suspended a study of the astra zeneca coronavirus vaccine in the young children in teenagers this follows reports linking the vaccine to a rare type of cerebral blood clot in adults that you use medicines agency the e m a is reviewing reports of brain blood clots forming after people have received the

astra zeneca vaccine and announcement of its findings is due this week there have been 44 reports of blood clots in the millions of people who have received the astra zeneca shot here in the e.u. . the world health organization adding today that based on the evidence available at the moment the benefits of taking the vaccine still outweigh the risks there was a denial from there being medicines agency concerning the existence of the link what happens is that there are a number of committees right now and regulatory agencies and regulatory authorities looking at the data and new data is coming every day and assessing those data so there's no link for the moment between the vaccine and the really thick event it's a mosquito peña of course it's and the revelation and we wait for some feedback from those communities in the coming days and coming out with. our my next guest is

mohamed when you're a viral infection in vaccine expert from lancaster in england it's good to see you again good to have you on the foreground this evening researchers from oxford university they have polls the trial of the astra zeneca vaccine in children what does this tell us is the evidence the vaccine does coles blood clots is that evidence mounting up now. thank you very much for having me on the show once again i think that the pause has been absolutely for cautionary needs and at the moment there isn't any data on to the trial in children that dictates that it has as association with blood clots but so far no information has come from the m. and shortage of regulatory body heat in the u.k. but my anticipation is that because the link is getting more and more be put into a particularly from the data in germany so i think it would be very difficult for us as an it guy to hold on all of the pressure they are having at the moment on to the association and safety of the vaccine so when the british prime minister boris

johnson for example says that the astra zeneca vaccine is safe to use is he saying something that is probably no longer true. well i think it depends actually there we can to actualize it because for example if we look at the safety of the vaccine and its benefit worse is that race caused the globe in 1000 yourself in at least people's people more than 60 years older than certainly it has a safety profile and it has much more value compared to if we consider its contribution to our saving lives in the younger age so safety probably would be ok in order rate and that's what i am expecting from the statement from him and also from the w.h.o. that this vaccine would then be more categorized into an older age application than into the younger age but that is a really good thing in the phenomena that we have a vaccine that could be applied in other age groups yeah that's true i mean we're

very fortunate that we have a choice of vaccines in this pandemic you say that the astra zeneca vaccine remains the still outweigh the risks what are the criteria that regulators take into account when they decide whether or not a vaccine is safe to use. this is very important and this is a relatively complex phenomenon to be assessed by the regulatory bodies to safety of this vaccine because we are talking about millions of people who have been vaccinated and all of these people would have one or other kind of other genetic predisposition or physical or environmental events in a different location so that is a massive and colossal amount of that that need to be analyzed before any particular statement need to be made but one simple idea that kind of be done in the back of the envelop is really to look into that other the blood clotting. people who has been reported before the implementation of the vaccine is different

than what has been offered the implementation of the vaccine and if we put those number into the context definitely it doesn't seems to be any association of the article or particularly into the older bro but as we move into the younger people that there is an association and that is the law meant that the whole regulatory bodies the w.h.o. the european medicines agency you know they say that aster's it is vaccine is safe to use in adults but there are some national medicines authorities that have restricted it to certain age groups like here in germany it's not being given to people under the age of 60 why do you think this vaccine is being treated differently to the others that have received approval. well brad if we really look on to this vaccine australia and it come back seems from the beginning this has been the vaccine that have been issues the most among all of the front runner this is the vaccine the only vaccine that been posed to times during the clinical trials and this is the one that having an association with not a drug and i think this is the attempt to cation and this is really

a testament that our health care system to improve for the safety and efficacy is working because then ever there is any association don't leave it also any other vaccine is linked that the procedure is to pause and to look back into that act of retrospectivity and analyze and bring it to reality and it currently stands is seems that that link is real and that is going to be a challenge for the moving forward moving forward it we know that the astra zeneca vaccine was planned as a work course in the vaccination efforts for the entire globe it's also one of the cheaper vaccines that if you take it out of the equation which is death appears where we're headed what does that mean then for vaccinating everybody on the planet i think it would be a major blow into the whole vaccine complained but going to be speaking about the european union as foreign and 1000000 dollars has been ordered and the europe itself has been really behind the curve in vaccinating and if you take 400000000

out of the vaccine supply i don't think that any european union countries would be able to claim that they would achieve the herd immunity to a given targeted in june july and same is that give it a cool back facility call that is being contributed by astronomical lexeme much more than any other vaccine and if this is taken out of the cool x. between the low and middle income countries will definitely not have access to 20 percent of the population of egypt has agony to give them by the end of this year while many are as always we appreciate your time in your insights tonight good to see you thank you thanks for having me. well meanwhile in india state leaders are calling for a wider vaccination role well as the country faces a staggering surge in corona virus cases nearly 97000 new infections are reported today hovering near a record high of 100000 set on monday hospitals across india are seeing an influx of patients with covert 1000 and they're turning out in record numbers the rising

cases is leading medical experts to warn that this wave could be stronger than the 1st with new variants reported from south africa brazil and the u.k. the enough time to get off a 6 good big positive look before we have this and that but it is it is not the single person in the family of the 5 it is getting. majority of cases are in the state of my heart russia home to india's financial capital mumbai nearly 60 percent of all of india's new cases were found here in just over the last 2 weeks curfew is now in place with tightened lockdown restrictions and it's being welcomed by some. a lockdown is imposed that at least people will stay home safe and the corona virus will be under control. the government has issued almost 80000000 vaccines it hopes to inoculate 300000000 people by the end of july and

last week it opened its vaccine drive to those over 45 years old. but the coronavirus hasn't stopped politicians running for regional elections gatherings continue in several states doctors say not enough is being done to contain that risk and warns that cases may be loon in the coming weeks. the pandemic in india where the day is almost done with the conversation it continues online you'll find us on twitter either at the news or you can follow me at brant go off t.v. and remember whatever happens between now and then tomorrow is another day we'll see you then of.
