we are not blind and i don't think we're stupid. nuclear agreement with iran. and. big money or big trouble. free trade deal with the us the. critics say it will. continue.
12:01 pm
with international news and comment. on an agreement with the un's atomic watchdog which allows it access to several of iran's nuclear facilities including the controversial heavy water plant but there is no progress in the latest round of talks on hell to limit iran's nuclear program france is widely blamed for stalling a breakthrough while israel lashed out at its allies for negotiating what it called a. was it so long ago that the talks did seem promising you had the iranian foreign minister meeting with the european union policy chief foreign policy chief catherine ashton and the mood in that meeting was certainly one of optimism but israel has been opposed to these negotiations from the start saying that iran will cheat anyway and in fact israel has always been against iran's nuclear program but what netanyahu says is that easing sanctions on iran
12:02 pm
would be like to quote netanyahu putting a hole in a tire on the other hand you have the united states which is pro these negotiations and what we're seeing is possibly the most serious an american israeli standoff and dispute in the years. it's dangerous. because it cute. as a nuclear threshold nation we are not blown them i don't think we're stupid i think we have a pretty strong sense of how to measure whether we are acting in the interests of our country and of the globe particularly of our allies like israel john kerry also says to quote him that israel needs to recognize that no agreement with iran has of yet been reached on any kind of israeli opposition is essentially premature what kerry stated was that the time to oppose any kind of deal is when you actually see what it is now we did earlier hear from iran after the talks ended on saturday that
12:03 pm
it was in fact paris who was responsible for blocking any kind of deal the french foreign minister fabius saying that we don't want a fool's deal what we're hearing now from the u.s. secretary of state is that the blame is on iran's shoulders kerry saying that the major powers were in fact united on an iranian nuclear deal but it was the rain ians who were unable to accept it kerry saying that they were united united on saturday when the proposal was presented to the iranians but to quote him the french had signed off on it we had signed off on it but he ran wasn't able to accept the deal at that particular moment when their own supremely to recuse france of showing open hostility journal weekends talks negotiations on to ron's nuclear program is set to resume later this month and dr mohammed has some honey believes that france is economic interests in the gulf region determining its position. wanted to somehow show
12:04 pm
a sense of support for the governments in this region specifically saudi arabia the united arab emirates the all moved out of there or. billions of euros and that could be a very good explanation that why. france is not that happy to see a solution to the crisis you know the longer distress is goes on the more opportunities for the arms sales to these contras so in that sense the economy and to trade could be a factor which is a very unfortunate case in cross talk today peter bell and his guest debate whether the hardline stance of western powers against iran's nuclear program is justified. priscilla to gain for though in south after ron was not iran was not transparent according to the nonprofessional if you have you can pursue but you have to be transparent and. when you establish order for you you you put you build
12:05 pm
a place in order to enrich uranium so you know it's this i think kind of can understand information but again i don't want to go into detail into the know but i do agree with you when i was saying is that if you look at how countries view the western assault on iran for the last few decades most countries in the world disagree with it very strong majority against it it is the perception is is that the again the americans and it's a close hijack what we mean by the international community and you know what they could even be bombed to hell in the name of the international community which would be an absolute fraud george go ahead. yes exactly. in the case of iran the i.a.e.a. has never found that iran had a nuclear weapons program that he was diverting any enrich uranium towards a nuclear weapons program even the us intelligence agencies have not found that
12:06 pm
iran is has a nuclear weapons program so therefore this this use us israeli policy against iran has absolutely no basis at all on the law or on evidence. crosstalk coming away a little later here on. the u.s. and e.u. are putting together a free trade agreement that the hailing is historic and mutually beneficial the critics say it's ignoring something democracy but a single market for europe in america means not just regulatory differences between the two sides will be removed but it's claimed big business will also be able to overrule the will of governments however the e.u. has promised big benefits of one hundred nineteen billion euros only jealous glimmered he warns this is all about profits and nothing more corporate sovereignty is about putting the corporation above the nation it lets a company sue a country and they can do that when they claim that their expectation of future
12:07 pm
profit has been diminished by change it indigenously should all buy particulate pollution already in place and what i think will happen is that companies like monsanto will sue the e.u. for billions of dollars because they will say that refusing to allow genetically modified organisms to be sold here is actually a barrier to trade and therefore their profits have suffered and therefore under the tee to wriggle ations assuming they go through they will claim to have a right to sue the european union. the biggest benefit from the free trade deal will come from eliminating barriers between the continents but the moody believes those barriers are actually needed to protect e.u. citizens the americans won't accept the generally more stringent european regulations they said this quite clearly said the only way to go is down that means we get rid of all of the gains that the european union has made in the last twenty or thirty years in terms of protecting health protecting environment labor regulation the americans will want to get rid of all of those and that's how the
12:08 pm
gains will come because those are costs to business but they're not cost to people those are the things that protect people this agreement suggests europe is not letting the revelations that u.s. intelligence targeted its leaders and citizens get in the way of business on the heels of the spying revelations the e.u. complained of a lack of trust so artie's peter all of our asked economic analyst michael ross whether the frustration is enough to hinder a lucrative trade deal. just over our shoulder over here just over your shoulder over there is the u.s. embassy now the john kerry the secretary of state says that the n.s.a. spying saga isn't going to be an issue when it comes to talking about trade but that saga has limited trust between the two countries how can you have trade when you don't have trust i mean germany and to you is nothing else than. slaves of the united states politicians are saying oh this is very bad. but there is no real consequence out of it you know how does that relate though to business
12:09 pm
in particular if you will say one of the big giant german companies would you be willing to sit down with one of your american counterparts do you trade knowing that perhaps they were listening in to all of your secret conversations of costs and all the spying is not only about political issues but also about economic facts german companies are aware that they are speired and the americans take the results of the spying for themselves but they cannot do anything against it there is a potential legislative minefield that comes from this and also the potential for the stripping of sovereign rights lots of people have campaigned in the e.u. saying that too many rights go to determine by brussels what this could end up seeing is that trade could end up determining the laws of the country how will it go down in germany let's face it this treaty is nothing else then submitting the e.u. walking force to the good of u.s.
12:10 pm
corporate crissy michael economic analyst thank you very much for talking to me there so the second round of talks on tough to underway but certainly still a long way to go to convince the people of europe that this is best for them. typhoon haiyan has left have a can devastation in its wake of the sweeping across southeast asia r.t. is spoken to a meteorologist about the aftermath of disasters like this stay with us and find out what he believes should have been done and whether this is just the beginning. so that's still to come but first the most ambitious leg of rushes a limb pick torch relay has been completed the symbol of the twenty fourteen winter games in sochi was taken for a space walk by the crew of the international space station and now it's safe and sound back on lindsay france has been following the the men to strip. right here in mission control when the big red letters landed flashed on the screen a huge round of applause went up to see the torch back safely here on earth with three crew members russian cosmonauts fyodor yurchikhin american karen nyberg and

italian luca parmitano now we watched as the capsule broke through the atmosphere and that large parachute opened up over the skies of kazakstan as it came hurdling back toward earth the torch has been in space before but it's never been taken on a space walk and that's exactly what occurred it blasted off from the back door cosmodrome on thursday made it safely up to the eye assess nine crew members up there and then it was taken out on a spacewalk on saturday by two cars minot's we were here live watching and it was very exciting to see the engineers actually walk walk the cosmonauts through the steps on how to get around the i.s.a.'s with that torch in hand of course it was not lit but nonetheless the spirit of unity and sportsmanship was up there on the i s s in the form of that torch next it plans to go to the beautiful area out in the eastern part of russia and it's going to go to the bottom of lake baikal it's going to go to the top of europe's highest peak mount elbrus and it's going to continue

12:16 pm
the energy in the storms in the pacific have gone up by fifty percent over the last thirty years or so and this is largely due to a warmer ocean warmer atmosphere so we're going to see more of these very severe storms so-called three four five category storms now in some cases when the communications systems are very active we can give good warning to other people in other cases when those are not there or not as robust it's very difficult for everybody to know that such a severe storm is coming so preparation is going to be absolutely essential and the countries are clearly going to have to make the kind of decisions about how they're close or populated in order to minimize the impact hundreds of millions of euros up in smoke europe's costly gravity surveying satellite apparently while reentering
