the rule of a man who will not crown and that would lead presumably to the same questions that will being asked of mr all and where doubts are being raised whether he could provide security for france's citizens and mr marquand will be hoping he doesn't face the same accusations since twenty fifteen over two hundred people have lost their lives in terror attacks in france the most deadly rocked paris in november of that year they've also been many smaller scale instance across the country too like the latest ones in on saturday night last night for british intelligence officer ronnie marshawn told us many have been following a clear pattern. there was a state of emergency was lifted but in fact the new incoming president mccrone at the time then institute is a number of the measures from the state emergency independent law so the security services in france do indeed have wide ranging powers and unfortunately i would be willing to bet that whoever perpetrated this attack this time is already on the radar either with the intelligence agencies or it's the very least with the local

police for perhaps involvement in petty crime we've seen this person emerge time and time and time again in in france particularly where people this seems to be an overlap between the criminality and the radicalization which leeson to carry out such attacks as our correspondent is rally was saying in his report the latest attack comes as the french president proposed to mark his first year in office in paris thousands of marched against emanuel micron's pro-business economic reforms the protesters say their motives sold to workers rights of the it's the latest in a series of rallies across from said recent months a number of which have been marred by violence and clashes with the police. elsewhere. rift in european and american relations widened this last week after donald trump decided to pull out from a huge iran nuclear deal now as national security adviser says it's possible that companies could face sanctions if they continue doing business with iran. is the
2:07 pm
u.s. going to impose sanctions on european companies that continue to do business with iran i think it would give the answer you say the answer is it's possible it depends on the conduct of other governments don't trump announced on tuesday that he is pulling the u.s. out of the big nuclear agreement with iran and it sparked anger among e.u. leaders. i am announcing today that the united states will withdraw from the around nuclear deal. and i think it is not right you know let's really cancel a deal that was agreed upon screening and shouting insulting and bullying that diminishes confidence in the international order systematically destroying dismantling everything what do we want to be able to pay blindly to what americans tell them because you can if we always say that if we don't like things and we can't achieve any new international order everyone will do what they feel like
2:08 pm
that's bad news for the world briefly the deal was signed in twenty fifteen after years of hard fought talks as a result europe started doing business with a rather sanctions with unease some major firms are likely to lose now that the u.s. is withdrawing from the agreement top of the list plane maker airbus facing perhaps the biggest not signed contracts worth more than twenty billion dollars with. radio officials meanwhile have described america's move in the week as on lawful and said to rand's preparing to restart its nuclear program its president has said that he will speak with the other signatories to the deal first more from igor's down of. another statement from trump and we are in for another treat it's so juicy you can't help but savor it let's take it from the top we'll see how we do with the rare and probably we will do very well with them but that's ok too of course he probably won't do very well with iran he just we may go on a deal that let the country's economy breathe more freely for the first time in
2:09 pm
decades and by a chain reaction trump probably won't get along with a bunch of other countries either yes all those nations who decided to stay in the deal reiterating their support for it is deal is not a bilateral treaty it's a un security council resolution and it belongs to the entire words no single country alone and destroyed a deal but can't undo the deal because all the others stay in did trump see this coming the rift with his own allies probably doesn't matter that much after all the america first mantra got trump elected and if you don't get it you're in for a life lesson they. understand. life because i don't think they do understand like we could be has a whole article on american exceptionalism and this tirade could very well at a section to it we get it mr trump you say understand life we hear understand how
2:10 pm
america wants it and roll over and play and here's why according to trump everyone should be on board with his iran decision if you look at what's happening in the middle east with syria with yemen with all of the places there involved it's bedlam and and we can't allow that to happen what a set of arguments apparently it's ok to support saudi arabia and their bombings of yemen a deadly come pain that resulted in the world's worst manmade humanitarian crisis all courtesy of american. weapons american logistical support and american intelligence and with syria i must have missed the moment when iran joined the u.s. in sending money and weapons to jihadist armed groups seeking regime change trump has laid out a list of demands to iran most notably he called on to iran to drop the quote quest
2:11 pm
to destroy israel an explicit indicator of who trumps trying to court him and this is how we run feels about trump's move. and the american flag isn't the only thing in tatters now so is the iran nuclear deal which has left europe scrambling for a response in it is never good for us to break the laws that we ourselves helped to create why because how can you convince powers that occasionally use force or violence that don't respect international law to follow our example when we don't even follow that example sells one thing is clear though they won't be taking a leaf out of donald's art of the deal whole world trust the united states or and their treaty or really wish to be or
2:12 pm
a deal with you know this if one president a lethal level approaches and they gauge on that deal he for american trust american credibility on the line and here the american does not on our its word. triple terror attack it into an easier second biggest city on a sunday morning three suicide bombings targeted churches in sort of by killing a level and injuring dozens more islamics they said it was behind that attack police say there were six suicide bombers who were all members of the same family two of them younger. children seems they dressed as christian church goers and targeted sunday morning services is it easy or is the world's largest muslim majority countries of taps on its christian community help community over the worst since the year two thousand when fifty worshippers were killed.

announcement president rouhani said ok we're going to stay in the deal for a little while and give time for the other participants mainly the three european countries to see what they can offer us to make it worth our while to stay in long term that could succeed it would be good from the perspective that would keep her on the nuclear program under control and under inspection but it would leave the united states very isolated and europe for the position to confront other. i'm out of iran and policies alternatively those negotiations might fail which would lead to a resumption of industrial scale enrichment and a serious serious problem for the region in the world now trump is obviously in violation of the american obligations but to some extent he's choosing his word because last winter he gave the europeans what looked like an ultimatum he was going to do it on the last the transatlantic allies could agree on sound ways of shoring up the deal and i gather.
