if mark zuckerberg thought the tease ways come to an end he was wrong french president emanuel mccraw made it clear to the facebook c.e.o. that he would be calm things down on global businesses who exploit to pass new data while avoiding paying taxes. was one of the round sixty industry bosses attending the tech for good summit on wednesday the meeting had one main objective encouraging global companies to focus on improving the wild especially since so many of them have become more influential than governments. obviously on a worldwide basis people are increasingly concerned about their relationship to technology the impact on the workplace how this will affect international politics and governance and governance has a harder time managing this. frankly the companies in the world is moving at a faster pace than government. companies to still freeriding while ignoring social situations around them and his was may have already taken impact and some friends took the opportunity to announce new initiatives will be investing one hundred million dollars in entrepreneurs in europe and in af

become fairly unpopular here i'm going to show and moscow thank you they well from says president emanuel mccraw is marking his first year in office for say he's the country's youngest leader since the poland he set out to reassert the idea of powerful french leadership at home and abroad but he mixed reviews since his surprise election victory twelve months ago. this was his moment of triumph. emmanuel mccall the newcomer who led the on mass movement shook up francis political establishment defeated the far right national front and introduced a new style of government. horse . runs hasn't had such a powerful leader for decades. even on the show the goal of the presidency wasn't such a top down operation it can be brought always about by himself this is not a president who conquers a party but rather a party that took shape after his victory. in disavowing the longstanding right left political spectrum macko has tried to join pro e.u. forces with those opposed to globalization has tried to unite right leaning business leaders with left leaning intellectuals what remains is a splintered oppositio

the french president emanuel mccraw is called president trump's decision to pull the u.s. out of the iran nuclear accord a mistake tehran has reacted angrily to the decision president hassan rouhani said here.

well the french president emanuel mccraw expressed his willingness to help bring the u.s. and north korea back to the negotiating table mr mack was in russia for talks with president putin left wanted to date him or. france is prepared to help in this work but i think it is also for the international community and it's entirety in a multilateral context and perhaps for the united nations to play a special role and so i hope that this is just an incidental within the process which must continue and of which we know that ultimate aim which is coherent with our international aims and is vital for the region so i hope we do not stop there but that we continue to do this vital work together. russia perceived this decision with regret we all seriously hope that a significant step would be taken towards reduction of tensions on the korean peninsula and that it would be the start of denuclearization of the whole of the korean peninsula let's wrap up some of the top stories at least six people have been killed and twenty two were injured after a car bomb exploded in the eastern lib

as other world powers to limit iran's nuclear program not only do we have the french president emanuel mccraw here at the white house the angle of merkel the german chancellor trying to send the message that there are legitimate concerns but those can be improved upon with the supplemental agreement but we've also had the u.k. foreign secretary boris johnson sending the same message to the president. well the president set the world a legitimate challenge in january which was to try to address all of the bad stuff that iran is is doing in the region to try to stop iran getting missiles into continental ballistic missiles stop them interfering in neighboring countries and also to fix the cool problem of the deal which is that it expires in twenty twenty five and then there's no way of stopping the array's going very rapidly to get a nuclear weapon well we think we can fix it working with our european friends we're going to be tough on iran but not throw away that the the heart of the deal which is all about stopping them getting a nuclear weapon. so we know that the foreign secretary has met w

the message has been to donald trump and i suspect that it was in this phone call again with emanuel mccraw that in fact the best way to deal with this moving forward is to have a supplementary agreement but again it's just not clear if donald trump listen to that advice of course we will find out at eight hundred g.m.t. in the meantime another clue as to don't trump fundamental objections to this deal a pretty strongly worded rebuke of former secretary of state john kerry and his efforts to keep the deal on track of course he was instrumental in concluding the deal in the first place does that indicate the level of antipathy felt by president trump of the trumpet ministration towards a piece of international legislation essentially completed under under his previous us barack obama. there's no question that there is an aspect to that perhaps it weighing in the president's calculus as he makes this decision we certainly heard this on the campaign trail jonah in the twenty sixty presidential election campaign donald trump repeatedly criticize not just the deal and how he felt it hurt america

underlying claim and again i've given the best information i had at the time and the french president emanuel mccraw is arrived in the pacific island of new caledonia he's been greeted with pro france rummy's mike ross first trip to the french territory comes ahead of an independence vote in the them but the majority of the island's indigenous cama ethnic group support a full breakaway from france the president's office says we're not express a position on the vote well those are the headlines the news continues here on al-jazeera after wonder what he's done so much about an elf. u.s. president donald trump has said he will slap new tariffs on imports of steel and. for a five gene would mean the day to try to ten times faster than fourteen we bring you the stories of the shaping the economic world we live in counting the cost of this time zero.

monday morning warning that scrapping it could trigger an arms race and the french president emanuel mccraw he's been quoted as saying cancelling the deal would open a pandora's box and risk war in the region while the german chancellor angela merkel she insists that the cold was a first step that prevented tehran from developing nuclear weapons. so what about china russia they have coal sol veto wielding members of the security council and they're signatories to this deal what do they feel well that's a question that i put to adnan. who's in iran analyst at the center for applied research in partnership with the orient it was in the german city upon the russians and the chinese can in fact meet you live with both scenarios if the g.'s if you were to disappear survives iraq will be politically economically elevated to potentially higher levels which the russians and chinese have checks into but they may also prefer a scenario like the scenario of the security hole which was made iran who are dependent on them so i guess with my limited knowledge on these two actors there is kind of the gree

well you have to remember that just in the last week in washington we've seen president emanuel mccraw from france and chancellor angela merkel from germany come to washington and mccraw support to a joint session of congress and there he said with iran's nuclear deal there is no plan b. and he donald trump quite forcibly to stay within the deal and angle americal repeated that as well you know donald trump will listen to all these voices but he's also listening to benjamin netanyahu is listening to the saudis and it's interesting that many people are framing benjamin netanyahu presentation on monday as very much for an audience of one this was in sawley donald trump the sea because look he came out he spoke mainly in english it was all about a presentation with slides making it easy for donald trump to understand this was all about putting pressure on the u.s. president to live to deliver to benjamin netanyahu a big political win and there's another thing that drives donald trump through all of this is that he likes to be the anti barack obama he sees barack obama he sees the iran nuc

whether a fraction of that sort of chemistry whether we'll see that between mr putin and mr mccraw think of it emanuel is coming to russia for the first time when really on an international chess board france and russia are definitely on the different sides of that chess board but just like and the case of angle marco and germany by the way these two leaders met last friday paris and moscow do why they are on the same page when it comes to the iranian nuclear deal so very soon we'll find out whether that will help them build any more small bridges and any case of course the story of personal relations between mr macron and mr putin isn't as long as that of angola merkel and the russian president but still it is quite worth checking out what it was like in the previous year. i respect him and i know him. and. we have lots of opportunities to align our positions and work together in key areas. we should never be weak whisper them when you are weak. and it's fine that again well for big business to global investors here's what some of the delegates at the same petersburg forum have been telling us about
