snit's we've got those of us who you know you put everything together korea iran syria ukraine. and all these problems affect russia u.s. relations i don't truly enjoy the effect that certain politicians tend to blame russia for everything russia and china have to sort out. the problem with north korea russia has to do something about syria they say and they also blame us for other crises even for yemen even though we have nothing to do with yemen what affects russia u.s. relations is not the fact that we have certain conflicts it's because the previous administration at tacked us. they set this time bomb for russia us or i did not expect in noble nobel prize winner to do such a thing but he really showed his true face and we're still suffering from the consequences of this action and we also saw for from the fact that he campaigned on raising doubts as to the illegitimacy of donald trump selection is still going on the people claim that russia meddled in the u.s. election and they don't offer any facts any evidence yet there is the fact that de servers the d n c. were hacked by

no it's got you know you brought everything in one pile and throw a little career iran syria russia ukraine all of that as part of the us russia russian issues i'm sure but yes i see that a lot of u.s. politicians who put the responsibility on russia russia has to do this and that on syria russia has to solve the korean problem we are also made responsible for many crises including the yemen crisis which we have nothing to do with unscrupulous or yes russia relations are suffering not from the fact that there are conflicts but rather because of the previous administration which. was too small hearted and they were revengeful they put this time bomb. in us russian relations i did not expect that from a noble peace prize winners but he did manifest himself and we can still see the ramifications for the reserve the whole campaign about still didn't see of trump being elected saying that russia. ensured this election. by meddling in us affairs and election process but we do not see any facts but the fact that the democratic. party website was hacked by an insider by the member of the democratic

he is expected to address iran , syria, global terrorism, all while promoting an america -first agenda. the president is also expected to go after the un itself, pushing for reforms that include more transparency and accountability. >> i think he does believe the united nations can be a very important instrument of addressing these threat to the world. but i think he also takes the view that the united nations has fallen short. and he want to motivate them in that regard. >> also hinted at the possibility of picking with the par as climate agreement, the president remains open to finding a those conditions where we can remain engaged. us ambassador to the un, nicky haley, says president trump will also promote peace and prosperity during his speech tomorrow. jim, jan? >> nicky, thank you very much. >> well, it has suspense, also a disappointing ends. >> the eagles kept fans on the edge of their seat in kansas city, almost in the dark. our pat gallen took a lot of notes and here to tell us what went wrong. >> look, you can't win them all. that's the reality of the nfl. so it was a game

iran. from terror around through iraq across. eastern syria to the mediterranean fantasyland of course but this is unsure part of the american. intentions and why they are frustrated because with the syrian army that has begun to move east the euphrates the americans claim that this is in contravention of an alleged the confliction zone again the three spent two three land never been agreed. it certainly makes a bit more sense when you explain you know the items of the locations of value that lie at that now do you think attacks such as the one that was seen in this latest move are they likely to have any effect can they be successful in delaying the syrian army. i think not because the. attacks from the air by the russian air force in particular on the advancing kurdish sure most neris signaled very serious intent on the part of russia. it signaled that russia will not back down on this even if it means risking confrontation with america america and there because credibility is not as much on the line as russia's russia. it seems to me delibe

iran? they have stayed true ally states from total collapse. syria and iraq. without iran help, iraq would have collapsed in. hand of isis. syria would have collapsed. who supported the terrorists to bring a regime change in the two countries? who attacked arab countries? it was iran? you can see how did the views are very different. it would be really good to have a realistic dialogue. between the region mall powers and international powers to discuss the source of problems in order to find the solution to problems. the u.s. you read about thousands of articles they say saudi arabia, saudi money is the source of isis, you hear president trump before election say saudi arabia is the source of number one source of terrorism. obama created isis. after election. saudi arabia is my main partner. we really don't understand what's going on in this country. the president in just some month. some month ago saudi arabia is source number one of terrorism, after he's elected says saudi arabia is my partner number one. therefore iran believe me they everyone we talk in ira

the day after would look like if we would see iran and then the iran influence in iraq and iran influencing syria and iran the influence in lebanon with. this would be a huge problem and we believe as i said before that this is something that needs to be the international community well its interest. you say that because the view in moscow and let me know if you disagree with that is that the iranian influence is indeed a growing there is no do dispute about that but most believe that partially it is growing because of israel's own policies or the policies of israel's closest allies it all started to be with the invasion of iraq which allowed iran to gain a foothold there was a campaign in the israeli complain in lebanon the beach consecutively allowed to hizbollah gaining more influence and dot country down was syria and now there is yemen don't you think that at least in part the iranian influence that you are so concerned about is growing because all of the opportunities that were handed to it by israel or israel's allies no way i mean to accuse east for iran being a state that would not accep

today with his rational discourse emphasizing political moderation and highlighting iran's peace related activities in syria and elsewhere and i think that the gap between iran and the u.s. is now widening as a direct result of you know no for he. is running a mark in washington led by mr trump and his envoy at the united nations was really ignorant about the details of the u.n. nuclear agency and the matters are very few cation at certain and yet somehow been able to gain the upper hand and hopefully this will not continue indefinitely given the fact that mr tillerson has a more rational approach to dismantle but the u.s. iran relations is now on a downward spiral not because of anything that iran is doing about it because mr trump is basically giving a lot of concessions to mr netanyahu the israeli prime minister who is a statue at the wall scared has been eclipsed after the signing of the g c p and. with the palestinians that said sorry wants to deflect attention by a result activities manufactured nuclear crisis i think so i guess our cover for c.r.b. here is a former advisor to runs nuclear negotiation
