iran announces it will further rollback its compliance with the 2050 nuclear deal if steps are not taken within the next 10 days to shield it from u.s. sanctions. a report about delays u.s. cyber attacks on russia's power grid raises questions about whether donald trump is being briefed by his intelligence services on their operations. and 2 sisters in saudi arabia plead to the international community for asylum after reportedly suffering years of abuse at the hands of their parents in the kingdom they join a growing number of women looking for a way out of the gulf want to take. you

watching all to international live from our studio with me welcome to the program. iran has announced it's to boost the production of low level enrich uranium policy in the stockpile limits set by the 2015 nuclear agreement and it's happening soon. it is time on june the 27th we will exceed the 300 kilogram limit and reached uranium under the nuclear deal after that we will continue to increase the speed of production drastically. the white house representative has responded to that statement by climbing toronto's blackmailing the international community and calling for increased pressure on iran you know nail was joined by. to discuss why the latest development to leave the 25th and. the deal is falling apart so it is pretty much as big as it gets because iran is giving a final warning in 10 days they will start enriching uranium beyond the limits set

by the deal and i'm not talking just a civilian sort of levels they could easily reach those levels of enrichment that would constitute a weapons grade level of enrichment and which could lead to iran obtaining a nuclear weapon and i mean iran is saying that it is a tit for tat measure they're saying that if the united states that they had dropped out of the deal year ago last year. this whole year iran has been very patient but they're saying well if one side is not you know not following the deal then why should. relations between the u.s. and russia have been on this dying words spiral i think it's safe to say for quite some time but it did come in the renewed focus didn't it this month totally i mean just last week to oil tankers were attacked in the word explosions basically in the gulf of oman and the united states for instance they were very very quick to pin the blame on iran for doing so some middle eastern allies they jumped on that

bargain as well have a listen we are confident that we can take a set of actions that can restore deterrence which is our missions as you say a full range of options does that include a military response force. sometimes even obvious things must be. and try and does it in his current firm stay. against iran's aggression in the gulf of amman in the persian gulf as well as in the region in general they rein in regime did not respect the japanese prime minister's visit to tehran it replied to the foot by talking to one of which was japanese igor one thing all those clips we just saw have in common they're all u.s. allies what about other global reaction what's europe saying oh well interesting thing about that video is that those are pretty much the only u.s. allies that are with washington on you know on this whole thing of pointing the finger of blame at iran and saying yeah tehran had something to do with it when it

comes to europe they're known as the trust the not as trusting i should say as saudi arabia and israel and we call upon sober assessments and wait for some credible evidence to be presented which it is bits ridiculous to cite secret data in this case ready in the last days we called for the maximum restraint the world cannot afford another crisis especially in an area like that 1st of all we need to investigate who is responsible for the attacks so we can say this or that country was responsible without providing any evidence run by the way they said that if they indeed want to see something going on in the gulf of oman if they wanted to block trade to block the strait they wouldn't have needed a diversion to do so they would have done an opening saying yeah we're blocking it they're saying that rain in military is strong enough to do it out in the open you know when they play by the rules so we can clearly see that there are

a lot of there's a lot of distrust when it comes to washington's claims and there are not many people are on board and some inside the u.s. government blaming trump for ceding this distrust the problem is that we are struggling even in the midst of this solid evidence to persuade our allies to join us. in any kind of response and it shows just how isolated the united states has become so does seem that trump has backed himself into a corner somewhat he has been so vehement in this stance since the election campaign. is tehran. nest of evil this cradle of evil now europe doesn't doesn't want this happening europe doesn't do is not engaging in this sort of rhetoric i mean people inside the us government people in washington are not on board they are blaming trump for that and so really trump has quite a lot in front of him quite

a lot to do if you want his policy to succeed. political analyst and commentator shabbir hass and thanks for coming on to the program to discuss this now the white house that they call tehran's announcement nuclear blackmail but it hasn't been the case for almost every move made by the 2 nations from sanctions right up until this point. i think if iran even dares to breathe then that will be marked an act of terrorism by the united states and this is a problem there is no fairness in the discussion that america wants and you know everyone needs to understand that america is the one been broke the jury c.p.o. 8 america is the one who said we reject this where mr trump came along very soon after of course at the behest under the persuasion of the hawks like bolton pump a and of course mr netanyahu trump you know it is his wisdom so we say decided that

this deal was not a good deal and he was going to walk away from it without any real excuse except that israel wants this and now you know they have put draconian sanctions upon iran for quite some time now even while j.c. p.o. he was around the sanctions were not completely removed you know a set of sanctions were removed by america but a new sense of unilateral sanctions were added by america at the time j.c. you know it was signed so the whole thing was somewhat fossick along fortunately and now in terms of iran's right to enrich uranium for peaceful energy purposes this is a right which is secure it's a safe right they they have every ability and right to do this and they have not you know iran is a muslim country it is run by islamic law the leader of the islamic revolution and leader of the summit republic i tell us how many has said categorically nuclear weapons. they are hot on there again it's limit low and as

a result iran will not make them and does has merely intention of having them. yeah this really is and i'm going to jump in that because you mentioned quite a few points you said america wants what america wants 1st that like to know what you think they want. and you know that it's a difficult situation between the 2 nations isn't it washington's own withdrawal from the wrong deal seem like nuclear blackmail in iran as eyes yet they've decided to go against the 2015 u.k. agreement rightly or wrongly can you answer those questions please yes well i can try i mean what does america really wont i think america wants and many america has had a problem with iran since the 1979 victory of the sun revolution when america was essentially kicked out an exposed for the crimes that it was committing in their own anyone who does a little bit of research will understand the sort of crimes that america

perpetrated in iran you know we can go back to operation ajax and the removal of the democratically elected. prime minister on sunday all the way down to the aborted operation on top of us when they tried to rescue the terrorists so the spies that were held by iran in the in the den of spies which was previously known as the american embassy so there's a lot of bad blood between iran and america and i believe iran is justified given the crimes that america has committed against them and from day one when they you will happen be imposed or america was the one supporting america there is this documentary evidence of people like mr rumsfeld and others go into supplying weaponry including unfortunately from britain going to supply weaponry including chemical weapons to iraq in order to bomb iran you've also now today you've got psychopaths like mr bolton and mr pompei you know who you know especially mr bolton

he's been saying openly that you know bomb bomb bomb iran and in some. oh mr trump puts this person in charge of his national security and expects that iran is somehow going to operate you know very politely and everything i think iran has shown extreme restraint in dealing with america i'm good you know all of these false flag operations like the you know the gulf of tonkin version 2 in the sea of all money these are these of self-inflicted wounds by america and allies in order to try and damage iran and to create a case for war against iran which they want desperately because iran along with countries like russia like china like syria have been standing firm against the hedge in many of the empire and its intentions across the world especially in the middle east region the oil rich resource rich middle east region and i think now

we're at the endgame we're at the last stage of this where america really is run by a complete not gentle there's no other way to describe not just mr trump i feel that he's a puppet if the people who are behind him like mr pompei own mr bolton and others these are the actual psychopaths the the people who have no like no desire for peace no desire for humanity and they just want to push forward their single minded agenda in order to be the empire that controls everyone anyone who opposes them why do you think they keep talking about russia being evil or china being evil because these countries have said no we're independent we have our own policies we look out for ourselves and so this is against the american empire because of what's in the empire and he fishes empire doesn't want anyone else to have an opinion because you know god forbid that someone has an opinion that perhaps is different to that of the hedge among. people who do have different opinions if we look at the situation

as it sounds america is calling on its allies to increase the pressure on terror on but so far many seem to be resisting that reluctant why do you think they are acting in this way and not jumping and doing what america wants them today. well 1st of all i'm very thankful that they're not jumping because we've seen israel and saudi arabia immediately bow down and then the need to lead to the whims of the empire thankfully in europe level heads have prevailed or will prevail of course russia or china these are countries which are far more intelligent than most other countries and so they will also prevail and be levelheaded and one of the reasons why. syria hasn't been completely destroyed by the american program in syria is because of the resilience of countries like russia that oh you know thankfully have the veto in the united nations and prevented absolute chaos really supreme so hopefully a lot of these other countries like the e.u.

like germany like france will turn around and say look you know iran is you know 1st of all we have to understand one very important thing let's say iran doesn't want to increase its nuclear production it can't be a dish the excess that it's got which it supposed to export by in terms of the j.c.b. 08 because america's put a blockade on iran so it's a case of you know if iran can't move this way and it can't move this way without k. shabbir we're going to have to stop them they have to go analyst and commented to thank you very much. for coming on to the podium to discuss this and give your opinions thank you. now a big question mark hanging over washington is donald trump being kept out of the loop on the aspects of foreign policy that is being stirred by new york times article on the cyber warfare which claims u.s. hackers attacked russia's power quit and as

a leap to trying to explain what actually happened it appears to be a no win situation for everyone. one of the big stories of the weekend america is in the midst of a real cyber war on russia's energy grid at least as the new york times puts it they say a number of current and former u.s. officials told them an american computer code had been deployed inside the grid the grid of the biggest country on this planet was it russian hackers we kept hearing about all the time make no mistake the u.s. government has plenty of cyber warriors at their disposal within hours of the story circulating the tromp twitter rant began an act of treason that's how he called the n.y.t. piece and after the usual metaphorical flushing of the paper down the toilet the president called the report a lie but the new york times is adamant there saying you are wrong mr president

accusing the press of treason is dangerous we describe the obstacle to the government before publication of those story notes president trump own national security officials said there were no concerns so we've been left guessing if the massive hack actually ever took place that's a tough one but lot of our putin's press secretary doesn't rule out this could have been the case. in this president trump as far as i know denies the information about cyber attacks on russian immigrant if indeed some agents are doing it without informing the president then this indicates a hypothetical cyber war with russia we have previously sent then our strategic and essentially konami spears have been on the cyber attacks from abroad many times and our agencies are countering these attacks you know to prevent any harm to our economy russia has consistently tried to initiate international coalition to find any type of cyber crime unfortunately our american partners have never taken

a stop on this option to do so this time and in the past to mr pascoe has fallen short of blaming washington for the attacks. but they've been out there and there's no doubt some kind of cyber war is on again the new york times was citing government officials without naming them though and so the question is who the hell is making decisions about this potentially enormous operation if the president is really unaware of the whole thing by the way not that long ago the american media was going nuts about russian hackers allegedly trying to screw up the u.s. power system some feared a true disaster was being plotted by the russians what are they saying this time around it's very clear that president trump isn't even asking to be briefed on the most pressing issues facing our country intelligence officials are not comfortable sharing intelligence information with the president of the united states apparently pentagon and military officials who are taking these series and actions against

russia without briefing the president in full see how no one's using the word hackers when it's not america that's being hacked and anyway this could really prove to be a great mess or another dirty game but with both scenarios in this story be it the president knows or the president doesn't rock bottom moscow d.c. won't get any better. he said he says describing themselves as refugees have found that twitter account suspended in the platform to the international community to help the past who say they've been subjected to sustained abuse at the hands of their father used one of the that is to plead for asylum approach. my father took away a passport and. he is looking for us now we trace it to on human rights and give the nations time to on human rights activities to help us move to a safe country. only after the suspension is twitter reinstated the sisters

accounts as well as that of a human rights activist who had been supporting them social media giant has not offered any comment on its actions in line with company policy the 2 girls have been detailing on the site how their parents allegedly abused them physically physically and verbally sometimes even causing injuries that warranted medical attention there now in turkey having escaped while on a family holiday there a human rights advocate we spoke to says social media played a crucial role in helping the girls get their story heard. it's very important so anyone who's potentially a risk to publish their case it's going to help them find asylum who seen other instances where girls have just waited too long to get their story out and that's allowed the family to track them down and essentially take them back to saudi against their will we need to be using social media more often it's revolution what allies the way that we can deal with human rights situations like this but at the

same time it's hugely risky because when we see accounts being suspended by swiss we have to question them and what the protocols are to protect people who are in a situation obviously they need to install more safeguards for situations. the case of the sisters is not unique either it's estimated that around $1000.00 women attempt in the kingdom each year one recent high profile case was that of our current on who try to flee to australia via thailand are to barricading himself in a hotel room she launched a twitter campaign and was eventually granted asylum in canada a saudi diplomat later joked that denying her access to technology might have been more effective than taking her passport. when she arrived in new twitter account and her followers grew to 45000 in one day it would have been better if they confiscated her mobile phone instead of her passport. another challenge faced by girls playing saudi arabia is

a new government created smartphone app it can use for mundane things like winning passports and paying parking fines but also allows male family members to track female relatives and even prevent them from traveling rather sterling again says that as the numbers of such cases rises everything must be authentic if oppressed women and force. over the past year we've seen cases such as secular ringback t. for we've seen a half mama done we've seen hints from the u.a.e. and we're seeing more and more and i think that as as each case is why public and in fact. case was published and broadcast inside saudi arabia is a step in itself to sort of promoting those more secure a secular belief system and the fact that it was since it is quite surprising and therefore that it's going to inspire more and more girls who are suffering abuse to really try to escape in and risk their lives to secure the kind of freedom from abuse that of course everybody wants i mean often these women would like to report

the kind of abuse they've suffered to also receives within the coaches to the u.a.e. authorities to saudi but they're not taken seriously and in fact it can lead to the chrism and all punishment or even did by way of article. egypt's 1st democratically elected president collapsed during a court session in cairo on monday and died shortly afterwards of a suspected heart attack and the media report that mohamed morsi who led the country from 2012 to 2013 was standing trial over espionage claims policy clear has the details. morsi was the 1st democratically elected president of egypt he was also the 1st civilian to hold the highest office in that country but that brief of one concluded experiment in democracy saw him serving only 14 years of what was supposed to have been his term of office he was overthrown back in 2013 by general abdel fattah el-sisi who is currently the president of egypt it all dates back to

the egyptian revolution of the 25th of january 2011 and all sounds and some nights a 1000000 people coming to tahrir square in downtown cairo i was there at the time and i remember talking to particularly young people who expressed the hope that the country was going to go through radical change also remember covering protests that were muslim brotherhood demonstrations at the time and they were quite suspicious of foreign journalists there was a lot of clamp down on the media and you had for example who were seen as being a mouthpiece off the muslim brotherhood who initially had quite a lot of freedom and then had the officers raided so it was a particularly tense time to actually be reporting in egypt the other sense i got was that there had been a nude that history was being made and then eventually you had mubarak overthrown by what we need told me was a dictator that was even worse because he came from the muslim brotherhood movement

maybe in egypt or god as a terrorist organization essentially and they knew route to the military coup so many directions feeling that this revolution of these had actually not achieved much and had gone full circle so it was a time when you had an atmosphere of electric change when dissipating of change was going to happen in egypt and then in actual fact not so long late not so long afterwards people feeling that very little had changed now as far as morsi who did not last in powerful very long and in june 2013 millions went back to tahrir square and called. him to step down he refused and then a few days later you had the egyptian army that militarily overthrew him and then subsequent to that you have morsi who has been facing charges of espionage he's been accused of colluding with this well and harass and also has been accused of killing protesters he has being in prison where his health is be deteriorating for

quite some time and there were a number of concerns there will be expressed he had the death penalty this was their overturned and now he was facing a trial of. ecuador has granted the united states permission to use one of its famed silence as an airfield but the government in quito is facing a backlash from what critics are calling a violation of the country's constitution taylor takes a closer look. the galapagos islands home to the giant tortoise birthplace of darwin's theory of evolution and it'll when you walk to see by the sound of lapping waves and the gentle hum of american planes you know as you know you love those is but i've mentioned that the galapagos is our aircraft carrier it is our natural carrier because it is shores us permanent replenishment interception facilities and it is a 1000 kilometers from our coast united states is going to take charge of improving

conditions especially refueling watches might now find some new star spangled species zipping across the sky because ecuador has just agreed to allow the u.s. military to use the u.s. go world heritage site reports claim the pentagon will now keep planes on the historic san cristobal island for operations in the pacific ocean with the primary purpose said to be fighting drug trafficking so far so good that's just a small catch a minor inconvenience really the ecuadorian constitution doesn't allow foreign military bases on its soil but no fair says the defense minister it's not a base pesetas it's a funny little gathering place going to look at the us to meet for periods of no more than a week and is subject to the protocol of the preservation of sovereignty those are my concerns gone also on the plus side washington is covering all the costs but perhaps unsurprisingly not everyone is happy about this latest addition galapagos is not an aircraft carrier for gringo use is an ecuadorian province patrimony of

humanity patriotic ground that his vessel sole can reach such a level describes very well the government to represent now ecuador and u.s. relations hit a no no under former president rafael correia he i'm going to washington by closing one of the largest u.s. bases outside the states relations father soured one correct ranted wiki leaks co-founder today in a silent. and sheltered him from the long arm of the u.s. justice department for years but things have been on the up recently thanks to lenin moran oh who's been in power since 2017 it was maranoa who decided that a son should outstayed his welcome at the embassy in london we all know the fallout from the whistle pro was dragged out by the british police slapped with 18 criminal counts by washington now faces extradition to the u.s. and potentially a 175 years behind bars now coincidentally or not at the same time acquittals bank

account got an almighty boost with a $4200000000.00 loan from a math the international monetary fund where the u.s. has huge voting rights we all know friendships about give and take so at the end of the day what's a small national treasure when your allies got deep pockets. from his name is plastered across some of the most expensive and sought after real estate on the planet but now there's this trump heights israel's real name to try and settle it in the occupied golan heights after the us president to markets appreciation for his recognition of israel's claims to sovereignty over the territory the hammer's is over 30 years old and has a population of just 10 people although israel now hopes it will be able to encourage more settlers to move there despite the fanfare though it's unlikely the trauma heights will be officially established before the country's elections in september the decision is also likely to further inflame the regional tensions as

with the exception of the us is docile community regards israel's occupation of as the syrian territory as illegal we also historian mark shaw meant for his thoughts on the move and what its implications will be. usually you name something after a dead person right then israel there are plenty of things named after dead american presidents there's a lincoln street there is a truman village there is a kennedy forest i can name lots of things named after former american presidents who are long dead or you generally don't tend to name enough to someone who's living everyone knows that the way to get to president trump to love you is to love him back or to love him he loves to have things named after him and this was another attempt to show love for president trump it's also a great way of underscoring in the next the israeli election that's coming again very very soon and that's considered a electoral plus for prime minister that the fact that he's close to president

trump is considered something that israelis say well why would we possibly want to get rid of bibi netanyahu after all he's close to president trump and president up as a president i would say it's therefore let's keep bibi netanyahu as prime minister because no one can replace him. it seems the u.s. might be opening another front in its international trade all this time with its ally india a new delhi is firing back its impose tariffs on a further 28 american products some as high as 70 percent it follows donald trump's refusal to exempt india from increased still an alum in taxes in the u.s. last year than india threatened to increase its terrorists to 120 percent ahead of a meeting with his engine counterpart later this month the us president has been accusing me of not giving washington equal access to the indian market so what dipali and the in case you missed it think of trade in the modern age. how do you launch a war without needing to fight

a war in case you missed it the economy stupid. international access to the u.s. market used to be a bit like dating the rich girl next door when you were a voter was not easy or cheap but in the end it was worth a 100 of those u.s. markets on now and 11 and stood in a well lit window access is now expensive and even if it was worth it you know it's going to hurt so we all know that america has the biggest military in the world just levels the cost of whatever country you're in there's a good chance that there is a u.s. aircraft carrier staring right back at you so now the u.s. is a weapon raising its economy in order to fight international disputes and dominating the market is i.c.b.m.'s. deterred you seeing the intercontinental ballistic something ready to be.
