this is why you should care only. a victory for diplomacy after a days of tense negotiations tehran and six world powers clinched a breakthrough nuclear deal bringing an end to a decade long standoff but divisions remain iranian. enrichment program will continue this first step does not say that iran has a right to enrich but mixed messages so what exactly did the sides agree on. the war has started three. for another six months experts warn that the deals regular language may see all sides interpret the details to suit themselves. in other news police in kiev use tear gas on a crowd of protesters trying to storm the parliament building as tens of thousands

rally after ukraine ditched e.u. integration plans. also in the week's major news doomed flight three sixty three is a black box valuable insights into the tragic crash killed fifty in central russia we reconstruct the jets final. and the afghan president jackson vice at home and abroad to sign off on a security pact with washington that would allow u.s. troops to stay in afghanistan after two thousand and fourteen. you're watching our two weekly live from moscow where we give you a rundown on the week's top stories. it's a done deal six world powers have reached an agreement with iran bringing an atomic program under control and this now and now reports on how the landmark document is
10:02 pm
the result of exhaustive talks the deal of the decade there will be all sorts of interests will try to bully gardasil but for the moment we have diplomacy in action something that we haven't seen especially between us in the run for thirty four years so this is the measure of big breakthrough at the moment but we have to be the world powers and iran reach and historic agreement ending the deadlock over tehran's nuclear ambitions after a decade of fell threats and sanctions diplomacy has prevailed that would insist that the six negotiating powers agreed to recognize iran's right to peaceful nuclear energy business including its right to enrichment under the conditions of this program is placed under strict control by the i.a.e.a. with issues. iran will reduce its uranium enrichment from twenty to a maximum of five percent for the next six months and use no new centrifuges
10:03 pm
inspectors will monitor on a daily basis sanctions will begin to ease but while tehran celebrates what it claims is its newly recognize right by the west to a peaceful nuclear program not everyone is on board iran's dream deal is the rules. and some details seem to be lost in translation this first step does not say that iran has a right to enrich but the current agreement the current plan of action as we call it in into this thing places. has a very clear reference to the fact that iranian. enrichment program will continue so while the deal is sealed the spin has just started kerry had to say that so he could ok yes the israel lobby the u.s. congress and did fly javi petro dollar law in the u.s.
10:04 pm
not to mention some legal counsel where says what still very faulty the old rhetoric is expected to continue swirling despite a new arraigning president in place who's taking powerful steps to convince the world that iran never has and never will attempt to arm the country with nuclear weapons israel has between two hundred and four hundred nuclear warheads and if ever iran word posed a threat to israel whether a nuclear attack or if it were to build nuclear bombs which it has not decided it is no lives but the deal still brings hope that dialogue is a match for the rhetoric that sanctions will surrender to solutions and diplomacy can break deadlock and he's now a r.t. moscow. the agreement has gained much support in iran itself the spiritual leader ayatollah khamenei welcomed it at as
10:05 pm
a basis for further progress some iranian experts believe that tehran will gain more than it will sacrifice. the fact that iran is halting uranium enrichment to twenty percent is something that iran actually wants because it's very expensive and the iranians have produced the fuel that it needs for the tehran reactor that produces medical isotopes for cancer patients so the iranians have already produced enough nuclear fuel through in reaching agreement twenty percent it no longer needs it so halting that is actually an advantage for iran because it does not want excess fuel because it's very costly so the iranians feel that they do not lose very much and they have a lot to gain and again it shows the steadfastness of these from the iranian perspective and. standing for your rights can achieve results russia's president putin hailed sunday's agreement for opening the doors to further positive diplomacy on the iranian nuclear program parties medina cochon about more
10:06 pm
on moscow's reaction russian president like even if we turn to has called this historic deal on iran's nuclear program that was achieved at talks in geneva a win win situation for all parties involved now the president said that this agreement is just a first step towards bringing a solution into this very complicated issue now he also said that it was achieved only thinks to a mutual diplomatic approach from all parties involved now the president said that russia has always been calling for a diplomatic approach in resolving the dispute over iran's nuclear program and it is very important that the grounds that russia had been offering were completely supported and income by the international community now the president said that this deal will bring a positive light to the development of the international situation especially and the middle east region and once again later including said that this is just the beginning and russia will continue to seek the bass solution in this matter. the
10:07 pm
agreement in geneva was held by president barack obama who says the lion's share of american sanctions will stay in place meanwhile some of america's politicians remain skeptical of the new deal pushing to impose new economic penalties against tehran and as our washington correspondent reports it's still unclear whether iran inside relief will last for long in return for iran scaling back its nuclear program president obama has pledged what he called the modest relief of sanctions but the more crippling sanctions will remain here's what the president said we will refrain from imposing new sanctions and we will allow the iranian government access to a portion of the revenue that they have been denied through sanctions. but the broader architecture of surge will remain in place and we will continue to enforce them vigorously and if iran does not fully meet its commitments during the six month phase we will turn off the relief and ratchet up the pressure the obama
10:08 pm
administration now says sanctions is what prompted the negotiations and led to the we heard secretary kerry talk about this and the president others argue that sanctions have created this hostile environment which throughout all these years made it impossible to reach a deal we know that congress was just about to pass another round of sanctions the president has urged congress not to do that saying it would undermine all chances for diplomacy to work they're already blasting the administration for the deal especially the republican part of congress and their reaction ranges from accusations over giving the way millions and not getting anything to reproach is for italy needing america's allies u.s. congress has hardly been in favor of any deal with iran and it's very difficult to see how they're going to take meaningful steps to actually make the deal work because this is a test agreement after six months all sides and not just iran have to take more
10:09 pm
confidence building steps and it's very difficult to see the u.s. congress doing it in the current environment peace activist brian das of the thinks the u.s. plans to stick to the deal even if washington itself comes under pressure. the u.s. is not going to give up on this piece you know we've had a basic old war with iran says nine hundred seventy nine and this is a major step forward and we have everybody on board yes the they're not enriching to twenty percent it had nothing to do with the scare of a nuclear weapon here that was probably more the french who don't want to compete on the market for medical isotopes but there's been a lot of negotiation and a lot of time put in this and they're not going to throw it all away because the israelis are having a fit. israel has condemned the deal in no uncertain terms labeling the historic agreement a historic mistake prime minister netanyahu reaffirmed his tough stance against the accord claiming that it endangers his country and the whole world our middle east
10:10 pm
correspondent paula slayer has more on the reaction there. what we heard from the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu in a brief press conference is that iran is taking cosmetic steps that it could reverse easily netanyahu also saying that sanctions that took years to put into place are now being undone the israeli prime minister warned that this state the first it could very well be the last it and he asked the question what incentive does he now have to dismantle its nuclear weapons program the israeli prime minister said we cannot and we will not allow a country that course for the destruction of israel to have nuclear weapons capability the israeli prime minister also saying that when israel's friends and allies are mistaken he sees it as his obligation to speak out netanyahu saying that my responsibility first and foremost is to go one and only jewish state that there is netanyahu also saying that israel is not bound by the green mint and that is
10:11 pm
a statement we've heard from the cross spectrum always ready political leaders netanyahu in fact said that this was not an historic deal but he called it rather a historic mistake now israeli ministers have been lining up to them best the nuclear deal the country's foreign minister avigdor lieberman has said that all options are on the table and that israel would act independently of the deal that is reached with iran essentially jerusalem believes that the deal is marginally better than the first draft but it is still a bad deal according to the israelis and they say it could get worse if the controls at all stipulated in the agreement or not rigorously adhered to the deal is based according to the trick that we're hearing coming out of television on self delusion we've heard that it's reminiscent of the bad deal that was reached and signed with north korea we've also heard from other ministers that it brings the world closer to a nuclear arms race and that there's no reason for the world to celebrate what the
10:12 pm
signing of this deal has indicated first and foremost is that israel is food isolated and even more marginalized by an international community that in effect did not listen to the israeli concerns. gideon levy from israel how it's newspaper believes his country is too isolated from its former allies and they won't take that's a yahoo seriously united states could leave also always a barking dog killed in it and you know we'll continue with he's takes but is really so isolated about seat the world his say it's world as they say and i don't think that this will create a lot of problems even if it comes from jerusalem if you judge it in a very cold way israel's security today is in a better position than two days ago because this agreement was for the benefit of all parties and above all i think that it's very important to me that iran is big
10:13 pm
in mongar the community of countries and not isolated isolated iran is always more dangerous than iran part of the worst part of the east part of the world. iran has been on a long and winding road to reach this crucial goal its nuclear program was launched way back in the one nine hundred fifty s. but the assistance of the united states but all that changed after the islamic revolution. it was only in one thousand nine hundred six when the u.s. chose the path of sanctions lambaste in iran by claiming its atomic development was for military purposes that's also in talks started but they got bogged down in two thousand and five when iran's then president ahmadinejad resumed uranium enrichment the un was very quick to respond to that agreeing on its own sanctions just a year later but they failed to stop iran from ploughing on with its nuclear program in fact in two thousand and ten it increased to running up real radium
10:14 pm
enrichment to twenty percent the international community saw this as a clear message that tehran wanted an atomic bomb which allegedly triggered sass nations of four iranian nuclear scientists with israel's mossad suspected of involvement by june this year iran had a new president something many saw as a game changer in terrans relations with the west our team has been keeping a very close eye on the diplomatic marathon in geneva so if you've missed anything check it out on r t dot com. reading into a break now but still to come all but one of the thirty people arrested during a greenpeace protest at a russian oil platform in the arctic are released on bail don't go away. right. we're strong. and i think the truth.
10:15 pm
i. welcome back you're watching r t live from moscow on monday france thanks for joining me the flight data recorder from the passenger jet that crashed in central russia last sunday has been. coated with indications stop pointing toward pilot error for the tragedy investigators say he calls a plane to nosedive onto the runway of cause an international airport killing all fifty on board now the trouble began with the weather the conditions were much stronger than the acceptable levels for landing this type of plane during what's called final approach the jet was just thirty meters off the ground when the pilot told air traffic control he needed to perform a go around and make a second attempt to land he puts the plane's nose up to gain some height but lost
10:16 pm
too much speed and he almost stalled the aircraft so in desperation the pilot went in her emergency descent to gain speed and lift that put the plane into an uncontrollable dive plunging it into the ground at four hundred fifty kilometers per hour your press cannot went to the scene of the tragedy. the final traumatic moments of a flight that had almost completed its journey forty four passengers six crew members everyone on board gone so close don't always use such a good boy healthy and handsome had a good family his son is only three years old he made many plans for the future of a tragedy that meant family friends and colleagues in their rivals for waiting to welcome their friends and loved ones home or instead leaving their walls. was meeting his two associates yana from moscow and donna from cameras in england one of the two foreigners on board that moscow to cause flight they were on their way to take part in
10:17 pm
a business master class for local students. we all knew what happened but many kept hoping until the very last moment that their relative sense survived the horrific picture many became hysterical doctors helped because some lost consciousness others had to lean on walls so you guys just are close at hand to really for the victims' relatives whatever they're needed i mean these are also on standby for when the shock is too much to bear was because the complications we're going to pick asian in the early began. they're nobodies and we fragments the force and speed of the impact means there are a few clues right now the flight recorders have been taken to moscow since they were badly damaged but could reveal what was said in the final few minutes in the cockpit and whether the plane was functioning normally twenty four hours after sunday's going cross winds have resumed international airport but it's not business as usual scores of people have been coming in bringing flowers to show their respects to the victims while instead of new evidence giving answers the latest
10:18 pm
footage of the crush is only reason for the questions you got to see republic of the other star. we canvassed an array of aviation experts engineers and flight controllers over the mistakes that appeared to have been made on that fateful flight their thoughts and more analysis are on our website. also online spectacular images from japan where a volcanic eruption has created new island in full video is at the invision section of the site. of. the olympic torch reached the bottom of lake by call the deepest in the world with the flame still burning check out the remarkable footage r t v dot com. in ukraine's capital kiev crowds of pro protesters attempted to storm the parliament building and clashed with police who responded with tear gas authorities say around fifty thousand people rallied in central kiev angry at the government's decision to suspend e.u.
10:19 pm
integration plans in a different part of the city a large group of protesters staged a rival rally against closer ties with brussels artie's alexy or chefs he reports on a deal that not only divided people within the country but also the international community ukraine is divided again the decision by the government to suspend the free trade agreement with the european union polarized the country these people participating in the largest protest rally i've seen in years and say that they completely disagree with this decision they say the president must be impeached. there's a different rally just a few hundred meters from his supporters of the president say that this decision was a brick magic one and was the correct one with the notion which is shared by many political analysts as well because looking at the possible disadvantages economic disadvantage is that a great could have suffered from just joining the free trade agreement it's easy to see why first of all there was an isolation of ukrainian machinery factories could have cost more than one hundred billion dollars altogether the luxury which a grand cannot afford at the moment so the fact is a lot more than eyes they can get closed and people tens of thousands may find
10:20 pm
themselves in the streets without work and could create a social unrest another factor which was also crucial here is that in order to be in line with the european standards ukrainian government had to increase prices for heating other tricity and gas for the ordinary population certainly this is something few in ukraine would have liked so looking at all this and other possible economic disadvantage just ukraine's government decided not to sign this deal it was looking for some sort of compensation from the european union but the european union did not offer any kind of compensation for for the put for potential economic damages and losses essentially this is what caused the signing not to happen next week another interesting twist in the story happening during the week is that the european union in fact pointed the finger at russia accusing russia of blackmailing ukraine to sign out of this free trade deal the russian president hit back saying that in fact it was the european union who blackmailed ukraine it would have been blackmailing ukraine all throughout the negotiation process let's have a listen to the russian president when i have ukraine has suspended not canceled
10:21 pm
but suspended negotiations with the e.u. he wants to review everything we heard a threat from the e.u. to ukraine all the way up to organizing mass protests this is pressure and blackmail we've been speaking to some leading economic experts and asking them whether kiev could actually benefit from the signing of these trade pacts here's what we've heard. opening the ukrainian borders to the e.u. would be suicide because their export capacity is simply not up to european standards where is the europeans import would flood in and wipe out what remains of ukrainian industry all the countries that have signed up to a new deal say economies have suffered badly e.u. is a sinking ship it's a titanic of twenty thirteen and no one in their right state of mind want to join a sinking ship or buy a ticket to join a sinking ship so the ukraine's future must lie i think with russia with belarus
10:22 pm
and kazakhstan in a customs union the e.u. has conceived this is so serious an agreement like all the other agreements that it tries to sign with your bid states as a geo political project in the midst of all these are accusations against russia it's actually the e.u. which sees its ease with expansion as it should let a goal and indeed an ideological project i don't think ukraine has lost market totally because there was no opportunity for ukraine in the e.u. deal to begin with it would've severely damaged their relationships with russia. the e.u. has little earlier offer of that so i don't think ukraine has what they don't think the afghan president has rejected advice from the country's influential council of elders that he sign an important security pact with the us as soon as possible ahmed karzai told the three thousand strong meeting he would not ratify the agreement with america until peace returned to afghanistan and washington has said
10:23 pm
any accord must be reached as soon as possible. now the proposals would see up to fifteen thousand u.s. soldiers stay in the country until two thousand and fourteen they would support afghan forces but would still be able to calc aerial military operations against al-qaeda and its affiliates and this includes keeping the right to raid homes which is a major sticking point with the afghan people and there's another contentious point the deal would give american forces immunity it would place them only under the jurisdiction of the u.s. military a political analyst and former afghan lawmaker who comes ois says that if u.s. troops do remain it would only be to protect their government's interests if there are ten thousand or twelve thousand troops in this country this would mean that they will only concentrate on their own special forces activities i guess i'll. give certain tribal area. operations and questions of the other side to kill. their enemies they will not worry about the
10:24 pm
security of afghanistan they will not worry about our internal problems they will just pay attention to what their goal is and that's it in my view americans are tired of this mission they're tired of all kinds of fatigues the wars bring in that sense i don't think they have a big appetite in a larger operation in afghanistan. this week a russian court released twenty nine of thirty people on bail after their arrest during a greenpeace protest they will remain in russia until their trial is completed the group were originally detained in september after trying to board an oil rig in a demonstration against drilling in the arctic to bangor say has been following the hearings. the twenty nine that the work granted bail are still in st petersburg they're not allowed to leave the country or even the city until the pretrial of the is happening and that date has not been given the only one activist is still
10:25 pm
remains in the detention center until next year february his lawyers have said that they will appeal that decision initially they were charged with the piracy the east charges were then changed to polygamous them which carry a maximum of seven years in prison they were in the moments detention center upon the arrest in september then we moved to st petersburg in early november now of course of this environmental protests started off as an environmental approaches that it has now become a diplomatic spat between at the netherlands as well as russia the arctic sunrise vessel which the activists were on board was a flying of the dutch flag the netherlands had taken russia to the international law of the sea tribunals and asked them to release of the vessel as well as the activities of russia has said it will not do so as of the point everybody who was on the bed all recently and in the arctic had risk and they put themselves at risk . that's it for the moment cross talk is up next we'll have more international news
