agreement, but you will find people who say that it is better than no deal. and that is much closer to the european position than we think of. so the current serving military chief of staff and a number of generals and people in politics also say that we have to work with whahat we have. and there is no evidence that iran was not complying with the deal. i even heard a member of the who today said, yes, the endgame is to have a new deal which is better than this one. but that sounds more like six nix. -- fix and plenty of other issues that netanyahu and putin will be discussing today? >> they will discuss syria.

issued, circulated in three languages expressing regret and committing to the deal. saying that this was unanimously endorsed by the un security council in a resolution. french, british and german foreign ministers take a joint lead on this to say they will lead the direct if on monday. and for the rest of europe, we did hear from the policy chief who says that the deal is collective and it isn't up to one country to pull the deal out . saying that as long as iran continues with its commitments as it has done so far, then they will continue. >> what is at stake for europe? big aspects.
