ah, what measures are being taken? what does the latest research say? information and context. the corona virus update the cobra gene special monday to friday on d. w. ah, ah. ah, this is t w. news lie from berlin. tough talks ahead between iran and major world power. another chance to save the iran nuclear agreement negotiators gather in vienna

trying once again to keep the deal alive after the 2018 with all of the us. and making sense of india is devastating. second wave of coven health care workers look back at the surge of cases this past spring. asking, could it happen again? ah, i'm michael ok. thanks so much for joining us. talks over iran's nuclear program or resuming in vienna. it's the 8th round of discussions. aimed at saving the 2015 agreement, which was meant to stop iran. t ron from developing nuclear weapons. the talks include germany, britain, france, russia, and china as well as iran. t. ron has increased its enrichment of uranium and has restricted inspectors ever since former us president donald trump pulled his

country out of the deal in 2018. the current us administration says it wants to return to the deal, but that's complicated by new demands by the iranian government. as delicate diplomatic discussions resume in vienna. d w went to the iranian capital tay, ron, to ask ordinary people what it's like to live with the consequences of economic sanctions hope is in short supply in this commercial district of ot, ron. as the talks and far off sienna, drag on, even the small items on offer here are getting more expensive by the date, too expensive for many. most people we meet don't dare to speak out about politics . and those who do i disillusioned manager in that of all, if i don't reach agreement, then it will be young. people like me who pay the price 7. i'm as the economy is in

a shambles, and there's no work in even if you find a job, everything is so expensive when you're young, car. nice. but got on those with one another. my get only amiga buddy in cash offer quantity. even if they sign a deal, you nothing much will happen normal your i don't think anything in the next year or 2 will have a positive impact on my life to present that your manner or your father or because it was thank you. look when i'm tired. fuck a little my think our president does not even interested in reaching an agreement when i drew honey wanted one, but didn't manager on my that him. i mean, the new government does not even close to any of us. give a hug, it won't work out to successfully a family mafia to on what their lives. the foreign ministry leading the nuclear negotiations is just across the street. no representative wanted to speak to us. priorities have shifted since iran's new hard line government took over. sanctions relieve, remains oppressing objective, but official willingness to cooperate with the west is at an all time low. this

political analyst at iran university tells us over the realizes that of the, of are dealing with a country that's not reliable. it's called the united states at b a, lift the agreement. once that there is this american saying that you hold me once, shame on you, if you fooled me twice, shame on me. so the racy administration massage where you see other people around him or don't the, don't want to be full twice. many ordinary iranians also feel duped, not only by the international community, but also by their own leaders. as on the southern california hasty but the nuclear deal should be made when the basis of these law, mac republic is corrected. but from the very foundation, as only the listen shows when the people in charge them have gone where they belong

them, he, his article has as long as that doesn't happen and agreement will not be reached when he can do right through official has the people in charge, think only about the benefits to themselves. i'm only not about the 85000000 people living in this country has they? he's most retina hot 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 a military confrontation and that they'll be the ones paying the price. for more and all this i'm joined now by core needle is honor by he is associate fellow at the alfred von oppenheim center for european policy studies in berlin. welcome sir . how crucial are these talks for iran? there's clearly much at stake for the iranian people. right. and we've just heard 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,

these are 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 expectation in tehran is, is quite low. there is worry 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, sir? well, there's 2 things to watch the. the 1st is that the iranians, in fact, i don't want the americans at the table. and so this complicates things. the iranians have said because the 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 and selves. washington, there is little appetite in washington. in favor of going back into this agreement, despite the fact that a president biden under campaign trail said that he would want to re enter the agreement. he has different priorities. he has a social legislation to get 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're 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 a li cannon ye for a moment to run. so religious and 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 and he green lit a nuclear deal. he said it's okay 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 cannot trust 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 iran, basically, which means sanctions where the question is, how much is iran willing to give in order to get to that sanctions relief? so anything that is decided in vienna will have to be put to foot towards him, put to him, and then he will have to give his assent. he is also a frail man, and so there is talk about his succession,

which may additionally complicate the matter, but so far as he is around he is the arbiter of all things political any wrong. that's cornelius and about many, many thanks you're welcome. thank you. let's get a round up of some of the other headlines now. south africa is archbishop desmond tutu, is being remembered around the world as a champion of justice and human rights. he died on sunday at the age of 92 to was awarded the nobel peace prize in 1984 for his efforts in the struggle against apartheid. r u. s. airlines have cancelled hundreds of flights for a 3rd day due to amok con infections among staff. all of the major carriers have faced labor shortages because cabin crews and ground staff have called in sick us daily infections have been rising sharply as the varian spreads. and now, as a pandemic filled year draws to a close, we want to take
