or more now let's cross over to tehran with eric randolph who's a correspondent for the french news agency a.f.p. thanks for joining us what more can you tell us about the reaction from iran to try statement. there is a reaction so far the bit cautious about rushing in to responding to this was thrown from top. eyes of the president saying that the precondition for meeting would be that the u.s. comes back to the nuclear do it reduces its hostility and starts to respect the nation before anything was going to happen but so far i think they're weighing their response which is a very skeptical about the idea that they never talk to the trump ministration so now president rouhani has been criticized for making a deal with what hardliners air and call the greatest satan in the first place what was the nuclear pact which trump told the neutral neutral this nuclear pact anyway the trump old out of that's what he's been criticized for so can he afford to pursue rapprochement with the u.s. a second time. certainly true the iran has taken a big political hit from this he both invested a lot of the

randolph's integrand he's a correspondent for the french news agency a.f.p. and he joins us now eric how big is the bite from this fool in the reality what will the consequences be well so far we haven't seen the worst effects of that as the continues to deteriorate imports are going to cost more and that's going to start to really stink the normal population but what it does reflect is that people have lost faith in the government to deal with the economic problems in the country they're rushing to the dollar to try and find somewhere where they can keep their money safe we've also seen gold prices shooting through the roof and it's a sign of that lack of trust in the government to keep things light especially as u.s. pressure continues to mount and sanctions are just around the corner again next week and is the iranian government doing anything about the situation that we know of. yeah it's been quite interesting while the economic policies are still rather vague and they haven't got anything to convincing to get around that we are seeing them start to crack down a bit on corruptio

randolph is in tehran he's a correspondent for the french news agency a.f.p. eric what are the consequences of this huge fold in the reale first of all was so far we haven't seen a terrible. but we are going to very soon see imports becoming much more. about them. and it's just adding to general sense of the malays about the economy which is already struggling with the lack of jobs lot of young people under. educated population just can't find work. and having this currency is going to. so what is around doing about it because as you mentioned it but a heap on their hands the economy itself is not in a good situation employment and now this comes across as. yes quite interesting we've seen some of the usual rhetoric that this is enemy conspiracies and so on but we've also seen a drive towards actually tackling some of the corruption that plaguing the government and the economy for so long publishing names of people that were profiteering on the back of this currency collapse naming about sixty arrests of people connected some of them to the government over the week

community could be in for another surprise when it comes to iran or let's cross over to tehran with eric randolph here's a correspondent for the french news agency. tell us more about iran's reaction or latest statements concerning their country. so far pretty muted they are rushing into a response from the top officials. lower down officials who have given a mixed response some say. no way to iran to negotiate unless the u.s. comes back into the nuclear deal others say for instance the foreign policy commission saying. we shouldn't make negotiations with the u.s. it's a blue we need to find a way to move forward so this is a bit of a mix but nothing from the top leaders yet now when president rouhani originally negotiated the rand nuclear deal hardliners in his country vilified him politically can he even afford to begin to pursue a rapprochement with the u.s. a second time i mean this is clearly the rouhani has very little political capital with most of the states alone is it just missed the all the nuclear deal in trying to fifteen on reaching out to the well going to try to foreign investment

well for more let's cross right over to tehran with eric randolph who's the correspondent for the french news agency p there eric tell us more about how iran is reacting to troubles latest statement in which he offered talks with the country's president. well so far the top leaders in the country remaining fairly quiet in response to trump's we've had quite a few lower down officials most of them saying that there can't be any truth and so the u.s. comes back to the nuclear deal which it bought and made reduces its hostility that's the line that's been pushed by the supreme leader who a couple of weeks ago said that it would be useless to how many talks with america which has failed to stick to it under the previous bargains and that's no reason to trust that now we have one. of the parliamentary foreign policy commission though he didn't say it should be a to boot or talk to the united states and the ultimately that has to be done or it's going to be any hope of moving forward in the region well donald trump himself must know that went wrong honey originally negotiated the iran nuclear
