relieve remains of pressing objective, but official willingness to cooperate with the west is at an all time low. this political analyst at t ran university tells us over the realizes that the of dealing with the country that's not reliable. it's called the united states and they left the agreement once it was this american saying that you hold me once, shame on you, if you hold me a toy, shame on me. so the racy admin assertion, mister racy. other people around him. don't know what to be full twice. many ordinary iranians also feel duped. not only by the international community, but also by their own leaders. as amazon by telephone hosted by the nuclear
8:05 am
deal should be made when the basis of these la mic republic is corrected. but from the very foundation, as only the listen shows when the people in charge him have gone where they belong them, he, his article has as long as that doesn't happen and agreement will not be reached only to dora tradition has the people in charge think only about the benefits to themselves, lamb only, not about the 85000000 people living in this country has the he smallest retina heart care. and so iranians are bracing for the worst. they know that no agreement is likely to mean more sanctions. and even the possibility of the military confrontation and that they'll be the ones paying the price for more and are there some joy now by cor needle is honor by he is associate fellow at the alfred vaughan oppenheim center for european policy studies in berlin. welcome sir . how crucial are these talks for iran? there's clearly much restrict for the iranian people. right. and we've just heard
8:06 am
from, from the people in the country themselves, they are seriously worried that this is not going to be a success. there is little expectation also because of the government at the same time. this is the government they will have to live with for the next 3 years round about. so the, the expectation in tehran is, is quite low. there is worried that the hard line government may drive this against the wall and then with possible consequences ranging from from more conflict to more sanctions. so there is much at stake for the people of iran. one aim of today's talks is clearly getting the united states back into the agreement. why is the bite in administration reluctant to do so? well, there's 2 things to watch. the 1st is that the iranians in fact don't want the americans at the table. and so this complicates things the iranians have said because the
8:07 am
united states left the deal 3 years ago. they are not allowed to sit at the table and talk about the revival of an agreement that they already left. so that complicates things. the other matter is the united states itself, washington. there is little appetite in washington in favor of going back into this agreement, despite the fact that a president biden on the campaign trail said that he would want to re enter the agreement. he has different priorities. he has a social legislation to get through through the congress. he has a very small minority and so he doesn't want to waste political capital so much on this, which is why they are very reluctant to give any guarantees what this and they are . the analyst asked for, they've already left the agreement once the iranians. now want to be sure that they stick to it for a 2nd time. right. let's talk about the con, the need for
8:08 am
a moment to run. so religious, military leader, what role is he playing in all this? well, he is the supreme authority inside the country. and he, you know, years ago he green lit a nuclear deal. he said it's ok to be in the nuclear deal, but i don't trust the united states. and now he says, well look, i told you, so we came across the united states. so he is very careful in any moves. it appears we can only say, it appears that he is also giving an okay a to re enter the talks, 1st of all, otherwise iran wouldn't be there. and to conclude an agreement which is beneficial for you wrong. basically which means sanctions where the question is, how much is the wrong willing to give in order to get to that sanctions relief? so anything that is decided in vienna will have to be put to for, towards him,
8:09 am
put to him, and then he will have to give his assent. he is also a frail man. so there is talk about his succession, which may additionally complicate the matter, but so far as he is around he is the opposite of all things political any wrong. that's a cornelius and about many, many thanks. you're welcome. thank you. the bodies of 16 iraqi kurdish migrants who drowned in the english channel in november had been returned to build the capital of iraqi kurdistan. 27 migrants died when their dingey deflated as they tried to make the dangerous crossing from france to britain. it's been described as the worst disaster on record involving migrants, trying to cross the channel they left searching for a better life, but make the most tragic of deaths. relatives waited at bill airport for the
