these tensions in the peninsula. as well as the process of going to him dead with denuclearization and disarmament of the peninsula that process should continue because china i have to say has played a very important role over the past months and i would like to thank chinese president for the role that he has played. in regard to him and if anything will the uncertainty pressure and for the security in the region i believe that china will continue to play is very important role all of france is also ready to support this process and i believe that there hole that the international community in a number of the various formers for example within the united nations should work in consort. and the process despite the evident difficulties it should advance and we should not lose sight of the end goal because it is required for peace and security for the whole region i believe that we should continue working

in this direction is best for their iran nuclear deal and various issues pertaining to this deal. but what mr bush insert at the end of his statement i fully subscribed to that but i was not talking about expanding the deal but making managements to it if this deal is signed in twenty fifteen. i have never doubted it. agreement from the forty four fourteenth of july twenty fifth like you forgot because i believe that this is the agreement on the current nuclear actions and nuclear programs off iran and that is why it's important to keep it in place. i have not heard any better oppose also with regards to this issue what i was. it is too little amend

them in this agreement we've mentioned that back in september twenty seventeen at the general assembly at the united nations event i suggested that we launch this process and consider that issue of the nuclear program in the ballistic missile program after twenty twenty five and generally have a look at iran's actions in the region with big. but undoubtedly in order to start working on this three components we need to have iran's trust and this is only possible if we will stick to their agreements in place we have been negotiating for some ten years and then after such a shock to term this deal is destroyed this yields nothing we disagree in the following aspects we will stick to the agreements signed in twenty twenty

fifteen we will continue the negotiations with iran as to their additional issues to be included and we fully agree that we need to keep the framework of twenty fifteen efficient and effective in order to move forward if i were already mentioned all these to mr rouhani. and i believe that we will choose the path of dialogue which would allow us to reach. a not ever broader framework agreement and the end goal as i see it is on the one hand for the agreement of july twenty fifteen to be amended with those three strategic agreements but i believe that we reach some concert here now the russian journalist interfax agency please. because of the government interfax agency. i have a question for both presidents mr putin you said that you have discussed

american sanctions and their withdrawal from the g c b a way have you perhaps discussed some kind of the russian french plan for the russian and french companies. to bear the blunt of the american sections without any detriment and how can you joined the work on this issue and now question to you mr mccraw on what measures are you going to undertake in order to protect french companies from possible american sanctions. following your cooperation with iran and how do you see the future of the disappear after the united states withdrawal thank you. from. s. for sanctions pressure i know that we have never acknowledged any you know that your destructions you can just take the un charter and actually read it and all those who can understand that any kind of you know that you are sanctions are illegitimate and this is how we see that as well and this is how

we're going to see that if you try to ship there we can make an allusion it doesn't cause any harm for the world economy yes it does and we have already talked about this at the forum and we're going to keep talking about that tomorrow. and one of the motors of the forum. there we used to read the global economy. of political pressure and to ensure global economic growth for the digital meant means. letter he received. by exerting more efforts because this is how we can resolve all the social and political issues. by developing together what we can do jointly more efficiently instead of trying to come in each other's way as for joint mechanism we cannot discuss that today. it will make you all the particulars of the beef as for in the protection of the

french companies american. as a result of american sanctions on iran. altogether we have confirmed first and foremost our companies stick to the french laws only read about them and they are protected bit by the agreements which france has signed to we will also seek to establish some company compensate for american isms and the european commission just last week in saffir came up with a number of suggestions which france supports if you. for example that argue as of one nine hundred ninety six which is six to protect our companies from any foreign sanctions and then the european backing for investments can play its part in all this. job it ought to do so i believe that the whole spectrum of mechanisms might be introduced now europe is trying to come up with one

. i would want us to have more freedom and more economic serenity on the european level and fronts what does protected economic interests. act as i see it europe should create even more operational and efficient mechanisms than we have now this work has already started and it shouldn't vance further that's for the ira and you know i have already responded in their guts to the previous question but i believe that there just to be a way of twenty fifteen of it out of the limited the lonely is now facing some risks due to the decision of the united states. but there are some grounds for optimism first of all up to now. tehran. to them is you has still been sticking to this deal and for me

this testifies to iran's responsibility in reliability. and second they i.a.e.a. has confirmed. as a result of their own investigations and their own money touring mechanisms that iran is sticking to its part of the deal this is one more reason to feel optimistic to feel you and heard all the other participants or the other parties to the deal have confirmed their intention to keep it going i have already mentioned the decisions or the guts to the french companies. and i know that some companies in other countries have decided to move out of iran due to the very evident reasons for it. but nevertheless i believe it is important to provide some guarantees for a rand we need to keep the common the joint framework for it to be active in the

future christo of the cross. you know this visit takes place when then we get in touch commission. really has announced to its sinister geisha result what is your response to those results of my. knowledge of what and will there be any consequences to the relationships of russia and france. have you discussed civil rights. issues and such visible will you promise to. take. off for your vote was it all just released and now a question to both ministers from all of what you have talked about terror attacks . report has been released in the us which has

a blame to russia and new possible sanctions were mentioned any skull ation was discussed or not turning to negotiations what decisions have you mentioned i have not. quite understood. when they said this. is this or the guts to cyber attacks or the aircraft. what aircraft are you talking about and understand. that. it's them alasia an airline no which was downed over done bus. are you telling me is not well actually we've been working this entire day so i'm not. quite aware of the all the details on the investigation but i can respond even without those details. right from the outset we have suggested that we work together on the investigation of this tragedy. but to our great surprise we

were not part of the negotiation or the investigation ukraine is part of the negotiation in the investigation and that is despite the fact that the ukraine violated international laws and they did not close the airspace over the area where the fighting was and going. and the crane is part of that investigation while russia is not we're not aware of what the results they came up with with that but in order to recognize all those results we need to be party to this investigation in any case we will attentively follow the investigation we will analyze everything that is mentioned in there and we will come up with a proposition but i have not seen the text yet. so your second question was. julie.

going to what it was about a meeting of mr mccance media when the n.g.o.s with rights pretty human rights protection is ations. it was going well you know what mr sin so he was detained for being a party for being guilty of the preparation of terrorist attacks not for his journalistic to reseize and. i'm quite surprised that you as a french journalist. marie too are not concerned about the restrictions imposed on journalists in ukraine just several days ago a colleague of yours russian journalist was detained he's being accused of treason you wait for his public position and for his work as a journalist. you are not very much concerned about his fate are you don't you think it's is weird and we should. be concerned about everything that

is going on in europe east and western everywhere in the world. we know that the rebels very duty for and responsible journalists. especially working in hotspots are often facing danger and some of them even risk their lives and get killed and we do have respect for such people. and we believe that their lives and their activities should be protected and we were doing everything in our power to ensure that but let's try to be objective let try to be thora this is the only way we can go about resolving any shoes without that we won't have any trust. but. there were also cyber attacks mentioned. you know much more with. less for

cyber attacks and all this hype and tensions in the media particularly there's always a counteraction to any action always when you're below but if you where did you get to reckon with and not to have any counter actions you don't like we should decide on the proper actions on the rules that we're going to apply when the humanity invented a nuclear bomb everyone understood how dangerous that was and we have decided on the proper rules. in order to avoid any possible tragedies and now it is evident cyberspace. is a very important area for millions of people and that is why we should decide on the mode of work we need to develop common frights we need to develop money touring magnusson and today with mr president we have just passed just that and we have decided that we are going to exert all the necessary efforts in order to

follow this path. europe minister within the week. as for your first question that you mentioned even when as for the seventeenth of march. i think about all the victims in many countries but their families in particular in belgium in the naveh lands in australia. in mali the difficulty you can and the information we are receiving today is very important and trash and france is undertaking its efforts to be part of the investigation we are sure that it is objective because it is related but we need to corporate in this area as soon as we have details as soon as we have the facts. it will be a bow to the unity you know to the to believe that many of the

political russia has played an objective role in establishing all the facts and force liberty with the netherlands as mr president has just mentioned. that we need to cooperate in this investigation it's an important stage for us and if you were here we still have a lot to do with regards to the investigation and as for your second question we have been absolutely transparent with the president and with his team wanted. to meet you and. call their response about. people at the n.g.o.s. very. good enough who are quite aware of the status of civil rights in russia. we have discussed number of very notable figures for example xander solution it sent we are going to celebrate his anniversary very

soon. of war and our dad like has shown that we can try to compliment each other's developments and our dialogue is also in contribution to the tran and dialogue. and the civil society should also communicate between russia and france. we have mentioned human rights and we've talked about mr sense offering was just mentioned by vladimir putin mr strength as well. a lot of people were mobilized. for his sake and i've talked about these very sensitive issues because the intellectual elite is very much concerned with his imprisonment and i believe that we might be able to establish. a proper

dialogue with regards to this issue and both of us are trying to ensure efficiency and we highly appreciate when it's in place. and when we can. we try to come up with. effective solutions together. i do not have control over the justice system in this country. but i believe that we're going to have an open and frank conversation which will allow us to move forward as for cyber attacks we know what is being written about it we know what people say about it we take all of that into consideration i believe that this is a major issue nowadays and this issue also fuels. the other problems which exist no society such as human rights issues because cyber attacks have a social dimension to them

a security dimension to them. and we're. here at the moment i think we need to do something to interfere. so as to try to give an impetus to resolve the situation at the some point in future it is a very timely issue to me and all around the globe people are discussing it and this requires for us to undertake our own efforts. again. but before we have any public debate we need to share information so as to discuss specific issues we came up with a road map. we have. the relevant information and president putin is discussing it with his team we are going to exchange that information and we're going to get down to business truly

confidential business that is. but we will try to share the results you know as much as possible in order to lay the groundwork for building security in this area we need to have some common rules in place because without them. we will keep . facing the same challenges. and that is why we need our economic actors and industrial actress to come up with joint rules as for any other issues of this initiative that we're talking about today that we look at that are implemented today would strengthen other areas of cooperation and we made the relevant decisions. now moving on to russian journalist. pressie a two channel revision and good evening. i have a question to both presidents you've talked in detail about the syrian settlement

and taken all of that into consideration how do you assess the possible success of political settlement in the country you have already discussed ukraine as we see the minsk agreements are not being properly implemented but anyway can we expect a meeting between the normandie four leaders and when are there any preconditions for it in place and mr micron very soon the world cup will take place in russia will you come to support your team thank you. the solution of a. now as for syria this is a very complicated russian this is. has been a lengthy conflict and has deep roots. and there are reasons for that conflict both domestic and foreign but we have to be optimistic and we have to strive for a settlement first and foremost. with political enemies we cannot have

a long term peace without have an agreed within the country with all conflicting parties this is the key issue here and it will do everything in our power to keep alive this specific transparent. and trustworthy deila to continue as for the city but as for a situation in donbass indeed this has been very slow. to do this to see would and i am deeply convinced with the current authorities in kiev do not want to have a settlement because what actually. they have domestic political squabbles going on that has to do with the preparation for the parliamentarian and presidential elections. in the however there is no other instrument. other than one other than minsk negotiations and normandy for russia is prepared to

support this format and to meet every level. with each and every of these meetings have to be very well prepared and have a positive outcome in any case a dialogue is always better than confrontation. so the theory. excluded as for syria i think we get it through the computer. to give more time to the i have just presented how i see the situation and the differences in the very procedure that we have been in that. developing with president putin and the mechanism of the ordination as for political aspects that we have to be talking about the people of the state the situation in syria after war with the peaceful share in the field the mystery we have then want to develop certain goals that you don't even know that we have outlined specially zones we don't collect live with the least double. so there

we were finding i so and were trying to find that i had with all of these are told to me when i've been about footage will know at ohsu to have this long planned meeting in is rather significant this comes hours after north korea destroyed its only nuclear testing site a feeling yet another condition it agreed to for the sake of improving relations with the us now our correspondent was at the site and he was among the few journalists invited to witness it firsthand just because of the getting the nuclear test site inches from being noble three hours of fools on those very useful nuclear testing one of them the north tunnel truly was used for the latest volley the nuclear test the other two were new and north koreans told us that they had been ready to conduct a nuclear test any movement so for them to build these tubes it's inside more of

the real way of sure we are ready to make real concessions now being started to go itself was quite impressive the explosions looks like small eruptions of the nul from under the ground so judging by that it seems that north korea is keeping its end.
