2:01 pm
blackmail during talks on nuclear program negotiations are crucial stage between iran and six world pilots after a decade long deadlock had been hope of a deal but now negotiations of pits of hit a stumbling block. following the negotiations in geneva. from the very beginning this skepticism really has been coming from france in the beginning they just. concerns have to be taken into consideration if any agreement is indeed reach we know israel has been very uncomfortable with this with netanyahu the premier of these rail warning that this is a bad deal however right now francis suggested that they are all there are conditions that must be met by iran one of its main concerns for instance is the a process in establishing iran you rein them in which meant another for france and it's been suggested by the foreign minister is the halting of the iraq you know heavy water reactor death something iran does not want to do now aside from that
2:02 pm
there are also words that were spoken by the foreign minister that might have insulted also the rain and because he's a lawyer five years had said that france didn't want to be part of a kong game and that the final draft of final draft text is too favorable to iran now the lawmakers of iran have said that sounds really has been hindering these talks that have indeed been calling it blackmail it hasn't gone unnoticed here in peace talks that france has been really taking quite a hard line from the very beginning some of server servers saying that even a hard line then via u.s. or the u.k. one western diplomat told the associated press that in fact the conditions that france is demanding are harsher than those demanded by the u.s. and other partners did hear words for example from the a british foreign minister william hague saying that they should seize the moment in order to reach a deal that it looted the world for a long time those are quite quite positive words that we heard the u.s. talking about narrowing gaps when it came to issues well as it stands right now the talks continue and there are suggestions from the ringin delegation that there
2:03 pm
could be a resumption of the talks in about two weeks time. let's not discuss what could be behind france's alleged resistance to an iran deal with political analyst diana johnston she's joining us live now from france are you surprised at this paris which is appearing to be hindering this way to deal with the role. well i mean i am i'm surprised but then i think i'd be because it's the thing with the with the kind of line that the. government in. syria that is if you've been following what we call the next line in there in the lead and so i think this is the second this is that although it's not consistent with any biological sense is the mantra you know what all that we respect if it is in effect a certain interest of saudi arabia as well as israel i mean what's in it for. to in
2:04 pm
effect adopt these country's interests and be reading the agreement with iran well . because if you get economic interest first of all and knew it was reported by the financial times. wrong in offering very generous. can't access to oil companies in europe or the united states. why and here is our. man actually was the. best. so i will be. back in the running order for. sanctions again against iran and all of this is. basically that's that's the only interest this is. really going to be sitting on economic i mean not everything is done in international affairs interest
2:05 pm
country commentators a lot of then i do and i see a lot of. the under the. socialist wing socialist i tell me it is. really to speak of being. ok donna but we'll leave it that we haven't got brilliant communication with you so we might come back to do some more recorded questions with a bit later but in the meantime we got most of what you have to say so thank you very much for your thoughts on that for the moment donna johnson live in front thank you robert honey he's a journalist and political analyst based in strasburg he says from his position on the deal as dictated by the interests of the players. but they seemed to take an extreme position all the time and there are a number of reasons for this the first is that they are play good cop bad cop with the americans obama is suddenly being much more reasonable in his attitude with the
2:06 pm
iranians the french are out there on the flank saying oh you must agree too easily israel must be protected and so on and in a sense that if you like. playing the game of the american so that they could charge reasonable the french all at reasonable there is another factor which is that everybody knows the enormous pressure of the israel lobby in america it's not quite so well though it's pretty pretty considerable in france as well. you know spoke to about us lanny from iran's foreign news agency he said france is sabotaging a deal with iran to score points in the region the that we get from the diplomats were sent diplomats is being said france is opposing the deal with is being going to happen in iran and the p five plus one there are some analysis speculations on that why the france is opposing this one is that france has good
2:07 pm
relations with israel france help israel to complete building the nuclear plant of their man are on the other hand france is having good relations with the arab countries in the region so in this case countries and there's the are opposing any deal with iran. france can enjoy the difference between israel and arab countries with the u.s. to strengthen entire ties with those contraries. and now let's take a more detailed look at the deal negotiators have been trying to put together first according to some sources the six world powers want iran to halt all activities to enrich uranium to twenty percent that you could then permit enrichment at a level below weapons grade in addition iran would be obliged to limit the number of centrifuges it uses the demands also reported include more intrusive monitoring of terrans atomic facilities and in return world powers would unfreeze some of iran's assets in foreign banks plus the west for reportedly consider easing
2:08 pm
sanctions which are crippled the country's economy while of course we'll keep you updated on the progress of these nuclear talks in geneva throughout the rest of the day on air and online and on our web site r.t. dot com. a giant step for the search of twenty fourteen winter games the olympic torch has just been taken on a spacewalk for the first time in history as part of the longest ever taught relay auntie's in the france which is the unique moment at mission control. well it's a very exciting thing to watch live here because what we're actually getting to see right now is down on the floor the engineers are essentially walking the cosmonauts through the steps of making it all the way around the international space station with the torch in hand and also it's important to note here if the viewers out there have noticed the torch is modified obviously it's been tethered very securely to the cosmonauts because no one wants to lose that thing into outer space i'd like to know who they may have voted to go after that thing if it actually gets loose so
2:09 pm
again. it's his fourth spacewalk and sergei it's his first and of course he gets to be part of this which is amazing now of course the torch has been in space before once for the one thousand nine hundred six olympics once for the two thousand and six but this time in space it's actually going on a space walk it's not just inside of a shuttle or inside of the eye is this so it was a big moment here when we actually saw the torch come out of the hatch attached to the cars minot's and make its appearance out in space the symbol of unity and sportsmanship being seen all over the world in fact i when i'm not live i'm taking pictures with my camera phone as is everybody just because it's so amazing to actually be part of this and get to see on these huge screens right here at star city not only do we see only huge screens but we can hear the engineers talking to the cosmonauts and hear their responses come to the microphones back to these guys
2:10 pm
who are actually seeing this all happen right right in front of our eyes and it's just it's like nothing i've ever experienced just it's an amazing thing and. i just wish that more people could be part of it now the torch has a couple more days left on the i assess before it heads back down to earth with a three person crew on a soyuz spacecraft again and so it's then going to rejoin this historic relay to saatchi for the kickoff. in february at the olympics so we will be bringing you all the live developments of the olympic torch right here on r.t. . the fire we spoke to the cosmonauts who carried the symbol of the olympics into wealth in space in the video on our website altie dot com and of course we'll continue to follow the torch when it comes back to earth and continues its way across the world's largest country we're told the highlights live on our team. deliberate design it's
2:11 pm
a big journey to such. one hundred twenty three days. through two hundred two cities of russia. really fourteen thousand people or sixty thousand. in a record setting trip by land air. and others face. olympic torch relay. on the marquee. thousands of drones will soon be swarming across u.s. airspace they're expected to be used for civil purposes such as far fighting and whether tracking but their presence is still causing concern now let's take a look at the states from above not these yellow spots are planes in american air space as you can see the skies are already very crowded the total movements every day is around ninety thousand and when unmanned aircraft join the traffic of course
2:12 pm
this number is going to rise so one that compromise the safety of air traffic or he's going to check on looks for the answer. according to the u.s. federal aviation administration by two thousand and twenty there will be up to thirty thousand drones flying in the u.s. airspace and not just by law enforcement and other government agencies but also by private firms for all kinds of purposes so the f.a.a. game itself two years to come up with ideas on how to regulate that brave new world where everybody can fly their throw their designated six test sites across the country to see how it goes aside from very serious might we see concerns there's a danger of mid air collisions even now as the government has not yet allowed the commercial use of drones the f.a.a. is getting a rising number of safety complaints from pilots in march of this year and all the tali airliner made national news headlines when the pilot reported spotting a drone as he was trying to land at new york's j.f.k. airport back then the f.a.a. and the f.b.i.
2:13 pm
have opened investigations into finding the drone the plane was flying over densely populated area when he brushed shoulders with a drone to the horror of the pilots of course or in a separate incident with the indianapolis five or the body like a few hundred feet below him in the opposite direction at a high speed. just to give you an idea of how concerned pilots are one pilot said we're concerned about birds we're concerned about other airplanes and now we're throwing in something totally uncontrolled when they suck one of those drones into the engine of an airplane he said then it will get everybody's attention and one of the challenges is that drones occasionally lose connection with the operator on the ground it's a well reported problem but apart from accidental collisions there is another challenge drones can be hijacked by someone with very bad intentions so the brave new world of drones can also turn out to be a very dangerous one in washington i'm going to check out our. one man's loss is
2:14 pm

2:18 pm
for that incident that was followed by an incident which saw a dutch diplomat beaten up in his home in moscow by masked intruders the russian government apologized and said that they would hunt down the perpetrators of that attack now there's no connect connection between those events and today's incident but it's just further proof and further signs really that relations between the two countries continue to be strained. just to remind you on our website of even more stories in addition to what you see here on screen including the hidden secrets of sewage and about the e.u. scientists working on a sensor able to detect terra labs from underground if you wondered how it works it's all on our website. and can't make head or tail of a brand new space discovery sixten object has been spotted by a nasa telescope and also to figure out the details. china is looking to take advantage of america's mistakes in the middle east beijing
