abandons its revolutionary. posture and its destabilizing foreign policy in the region and behave simply like a normal nation but. if you strange the united states and its officials who have committed the greatest of crimes by imposing much pressure on the tougher sanctions on iran communicating to the iranian people that they support these protests we don't expect anything else from mr disgracefully defense the much more pressure regime and the position of sanctions on iran. broke out after a surprise 50 percent hike in fuel prices announced on friday mass anger boiled over at least a dozen cities with buildings vandalized and pictures of iran supreme leader weren't there and said the revenues would be used to help those less well off it all comes with the country in the grip of a deep economic crisis aggravated by tough u.s. sanctions are often has more. to trumpet ministration seems jubilant about the recent protests in iran as i said to the people of iran

almost a year and a half ago the united states is with you now the protests are being driven by the economic situation g.d.p. growth projections are down by 9.5 percent inflation is it 40 percent and unemployment is at 16 percent and rising but it was a 15 percent increase in the price of fuel that sparked the recent turmoil. now an economic squeeze like that is bound to get people upset but why is iran in such poor shape well donald trump has a lot to do with him. in 2015 the international community agreed to lift decades

old sanctions in response to an agreement that was reached about iran's peaceful nuclear energy program but then along came donald trump he decided to pull out of the nuclear agreement he says that iran broke the spirit of the deal however international observers say that iran fully complied as of today i can state that iran is implementing its. commitments after pulling out of the deal the trump administration began imposing sanctions on iran intended to wreck their economy accusing iran of quote destabilizing activities around the region the usa even threatened to impose sanctions on other countries that dared to buy iranian oil anyone doing business with iran will not be doing business with the united states i'm asking for world peace nothing less. on any activity subject.

after the iran nuclear deal in 2015 iran was exporting roughly $2500000.00 barrels of oil per day now that number is down to roughly 200000 in a country where the economy is centered around state run oil exports that's a pretty big financial loss and it has been detrimental cuts in fuel subsidies and other benefits for the population had to be made so i don't know. top officials have sat down and made a decision for the country based on expert assessments and this decision must be executed. but according to donald trump working to economically ruin iran makes him the best friend of the iranian people nothing says i love you like bleeding someone dry as nations to support a rans people as they struggled to reclaim. their religious and rights is. today i want to deliver a message to the long suffering people of iran. the people of america stand with

you will the arabian people return to the nation's proud roots as a center of civilization culture and wealth where their people can be happy and prosperous once again the united states throughout the u.a.e. and history has always been against democracy i mean the united states was the country together with britain that instigated the $1000.00 each week all of that and then to have to excise that then right democratic rights that for a month till the u.k. election for those who have been subjected to domestic abuse it's not just about political preferences but also about the charts to vote safely in the altie london . we've asked the u.k. government for its reaction to this story although so far it has not responded or global news update continues after this short break.

talked about non-existing coordination with state or thirty's about no coordination with police agencies no one wanted to listen to us residents of this region so we came to only one conclusion to check has to be closed and. people will have to be resettled elsewhere. just a reminder we have plenty of stories on our website as well including this one astronomers are angry with you know one musk accusing him of polluting the heavens and blocking their telescopes attack entrepreneur plans to send tens of thousands of small satellites into low orbit as part of his starling project about story in full at r.t. dot com. republicans in the u.s. congress are demanding answers from a.b.c. news after accusing it of burying the truth and

a letter they urged the network to explain why it shelved an interview a few years back with an alleged victim of convicted pedophile jeffrey epstein what appears to have been presented to mr obama is 1st hand evidence of human trafficking i am deeply concerned that this victim in search of justice went to see news provided information and an interview and then a.b.c. news chose to burry the truth it is imperative that the public be assured newsroom decisions regarding exposing human trafficking are not tempered by financial interests or outside forces a video recently surfaced of a.b.c. host amy robach complaining that the interview had been dropped lawmakers want her to shut light on who prevented the story from running have a story for 3 years i've had to say if you would for any roberts then the palace found out that we had her whole allegations about prince andrew and threatened us a 1000000 different ways she told me everything she had pictures everything she was in hiding for 12 years making history come out we convinced her to talk to us it

was unbelievable what we had cleared with everything. i had i tried for 3 years to get on to no avail and now it's all coming out and it's like these new well of revelations that i'm preaching had i was so pissed. the network has defended its decision not to run the story claiming its journalists could not verify the claims being made jeffrey epstein was a disgraced financier and convicted sex offender he pleaded guilty to soliciting a minor for prostitution in 2008 earlier this year i was again arrested and was facing a spate of sex trafficking charges before being found dead in his cell authorities ruled his death a suicide journalist analysts are says that a.b.c. might have been scared by epstein's powerful connections case of a.b.c. in the row back said it was actually pressure from the british royal family that caused a.b.c. to back off from the story but there are other things as well i mean geoffrey

epstein had a very powerful friends in very high places bill clinton for one. prince andrew for not for another. and so so therefore the a.b.c. was may very well have been afraid of tangling with forces like those so so the media's reputation is hurting really badly and this latest episode involving a.b.c. and jeffrey epstein doesn't help at all so republicans are very happy to pounce on this latest transgression. the u.s. army has issued new playing cards for its soldiers with the aim of helping them memorize the weapons of their enemy is among them the russian made ass 400 air defense system already more than 70000 packs have been distributed.
