scrambling in trying really hard to reassure the islamic republic that they remain committed to the deal that it's not clear that iranian officials believe they will be hearing from them is a lot of skepticism as to where they will be able to sit the damage of american leaving and also whether they'll be able to offer something of real interest to to read what this means is that the prospect of iran withdrawing from this deal is becoming ever more imminent. so there's a lot of pressure on europe now to pull something out of that for now though probably a thanks for that. the way we talk to each other on the internet elevated way beyond just using words these days now we deploy a modis gifts and of course memes which borrow heavily from movies and t.v. shows but now they're under threat from the use legal overseas who are getting tough on copyright infringement especially online adonal court or explained. the internet as we know it may soon radically change at least in the e.u.
