pressure from the israeli government. officials are probably. the source of energy . the e.u. has stepped up its sanctions against iran freezing assets and writing more officials to a visa blacklist so it's serious human rights violations for the latest measures and sanctions already in place or the prices up exports drop any middle east experts say you need penalties are really turning the terrain people against the government. even the initial sanctions a few years ago if you look at the weekly leaks documents that they were intended for ordinary people to make them change their minds about the iranian government the recent more recent sanctions are intended to strangle the iranian economy this is the. this is official statements. given by western governments and western media so it's intended to hurt ordinary iranians americans

and its allies are. cover for nuclear weapons test that could undermine diplomatic efforts to deal with its nuclear program. last month's deal between washington and the that the u.s. would supply in north korea with a freezing rain which. also deployed its missile system saying. its territory to form a european parliament member is to kill this thing the danger. of it clearly the the u.n. could take action but what quite what it does i mean it's got fairly fierce sanctions on north korea already north korea is actually alleviating the risk to japan because it shifting this launch from the east coast to the west coast so it will not fly over japan in the same way it's possible for the launch to go wrong because the previous two have gone wrong the first one failed the third stage failed to ignite. and so it crashed into the sea way past japan it seems to me rather
1:16 am
unlikely that there's going to be any danger that this is going to hit your part in the sense that if it's a three stage rocket it wider a fail before it gets to japan or what's going to pass over as i said if they launch into south and it looks like they're going to do that having shifted the the launch site police coast to the west coast it's very very unlikely to have a very imposingly danger to japan. israel has refused to cooperate with the u.n. fact finding mission expected to investigators very settlements in the west bank it comes after the organization authorized a probe on thursday. plus the reports as well shows little sign of stopping its policy of expansion in the area. in the remote hilltops of south hebron the ancient it when tribal ekes out a living from the land but they've unwittingly become the latest phone in the side of the israeli government and now look around this by any means make any real

security threat to the israeli government but this part of earth was on the agenda when the german foreign minister met with his israeli counterparts at the center of the conflict these wind and solar generators which while putting electricity two and lighting up the lives of some four hundred people has tel aviv complaining it was a lift in the dark but these nomads are just excited to show us how life's been transformed they had no electricity they had no power to charge before they would need to go to the nearby city of. you know it's two hours was just to drive to the telephone and that's the product of their anger at the israeli authorities they said it was a record without permission and of threatened to send in the border all we are asking is that they apply for a licensed product you're talking about not only did they not supply blood when warning was given this is in violation of the regulations they have a right to appeal they refused to appeal but in germany look mcbain who is funding
1:18 am
the project says they weren't too concerned with getting any israeli stamp of approval because most applications are rejected. and state of israel's. interests them having more caring for the world being the listing of scenarios rather that you would like to see. in areas worse promised unions and more settlements which is what some european diplomats are suggesting because it's here in these remote hills with some of the most fervent settlement activity is taking place in a statement to achieve the german foreign office said it was following the situation and described the developments as worrying but it wouldn't comment on speculation. neteller it was reacting spitefully to a leaked confidential e.u. report calling for israeli settlement activity to be stopped and so while these nomads marvel at the first taste of the twenty first century their joy could be

short lived if israel decides to rip it all away policy r.t. in the south hebron hills. most scientists agree that kerry felt every day in cities around the world the issue doesn't seem to be hitting the headlines president reporter asks the new york public media enough to pressure the politicians to try and stop it. this year the u.s. it's fourth warmest winter on record and your record breaking cold why is no one talking about the perils of climate change any more this week let's talk about that do you think it's still a threat to the planet yes over here especially what traffic. you know you go out of cars we like the. u.s. definitely you know what i mean the individual. we can stop using
1:20 am
plastic bags and turning the lights on we already knew that we really don't feel like that makes a big difference well no we do yes we do as much as we can and you know it's time for the government heads worldwide do you think the world still cares about it because it doesn't seem to be in the headlines as frequently absolutely not so why is that. for governments to figure out but they don't want to give us an affirmation for us to make our own decisions and i think it's something that people know i mean everyone a lot of people watch you know watch al gore and listen to him and can't even remember the name of the movie i can't. know it all we heard about it was. conveniently forgot they you know we forgot why do you think the media's got to talk about it because it clearly wasn't commonsense that stops them. because they found something else to talk about i do believe people are working on it and when you talk to my son who's in college and his friends i think there is
1:21 am
a lot more concern than we have so yeah it's i guess it's a can't really gauge everything but what the media is talking about right right we have snow in june at this point so you believe it's still yes absolutely so why isn't the media talking about it anymore big business. big companies don't want to hear that so. don't want to hear it so if we don't hear about it so much are we headed for doom. i don't know if you haven't read it twenty first one it's well the bottom line is although there are people who are still concerned about the effects of climate change the mainstream media is clearly not among. raef look at some other international news now. foreign ministers have toughened the block's piracy mission in somalia and its military force is now allowed to go. along the country's coast so far the operation is concentrated on targeting pirate

vast majority of russia's jewelry comes from this region with over four million pieces a year coming off of adoption lines of this fact alone however all those that have challenged dominance of mass production. just down the road from the major factories it occurs in a sales guy a school for metal treatment and teaching students how to craft a spoke jewelry one hundred in fifty years however despite that history the rise of the factories does cause some concern that the problem here is that some graduates find it hard to work on new equipment installed at these factories but they can do everything from a visit with their hands students come from far afield to attend the school samuel show me love is from israel he's following in his uncle's footsteps by studying here and has high hopes for the future. hearings there make a very good very highly i can think of a factory that can do things like there maybe tiffany this is the level i am

1:26 am
because they are two different things it's like juxtaposing photography in painting photography is about equipment more about brains and. this is the difference with jewelry as well. with so much jewelry being made here is certainly the king of bling of russia's regions peter all of our party. well later on today our moscow out team shows you the colorful world circuses and all that here's a preview of what's coming up next hour. with the stars of the show a very large animal that i will admit quite varied a house meeting drops african. tons this is no creature i would like to get in the way of this at fifteen years old and it's just it's fruit and veg so i feel quite safe standing here he doesn't like meat. but way
