did walk away from it how do you weigh the issue of trust because i mean if an american ministration negotiated signed and then walked away from what how would you feel it being iran dealing with the next administration because they could do exactly the same thing all over again so i mean isn't it it's a trust issue here at this point as well jeffrey in washington yes well it's well certainly if in any negotiation if you've been burned once it's very hard to get over that sentiment and you're absolutely correct in suggesting that certainly on the iranian side they need to take a very hard look at the sustainability of whatever. greenman they might reach with the biden administration which has its own internal concerns in. addition there are many voices in washington both on the down democrat in the democratic party and the republican party who maintain a vociferous opposition to any degree engagement with iran and that is also needs to be understood in is certainly another issue of concern as the uranium and the other partners to the j c p o way observe the scene here in washington.

i think it is being used as a negotiating tool by both you've got the by did ministration that is now going to change the the temperature of the climate change argument by by make it climate crisis instead of climate change are going to change the wording to try and up the ante on the other hand you've got the chinese that pollute a lot more than we do and yet some of the pollution accords some of the climate change stuff that's being put into place won't affect the chinese it'll just hamper u.s. business so the chinese are happy to accept whatever the buy did ministration was to do in terms of ramping up climate change arguments because it just makes them more competitive in a world of environment and hampers us well and that's the ball right now but there's also some many other things going on we've seen past meetings not go so well between the biden ministration and the chinese government so do you think the chinese actually are taking john kerry or any other united states envoy serious right now considering the last 3 months and how the interactions have gone. the short answer wou

ministration . meddling. also coming up this hour the french parliament. bill human rights groups fear it will threaten efforts.

business so the chinese are happy to accept whatever the buy did ministration wants to do in terms of ramping up climate change arguments because it just makes them more competitive in a world of environment and hampers us well and that's the ball right now but there's also so many other things going on we've seen past meetings not go so well between the biden ministration and the chinese government so do you think the chinese actually are taking john kerry or any other united states envoy serious right now considering the last 3 months and how the interactions have gone. the short answer would be no they're not taken anything seriously with the by did ministration you know i'll be critical of the biden ministration when i think they deserve it but i'll be supportive when i think they deserve it and i'll say that sending a delegation to taiwan to make it clear that we are not going to back off of our support of taiwan with this sort of aggressive military posture that the chinese are showing the world i think that is a great point with the by the administration to do to show we're not

again is relatively easy for iran but that cannot be said for the united states as the by did ministration have the political will to say yes to turn around. talking that way i'm joined by my guest in washington he is chairman of the market group a consultancy on middle east affairs in vienna we have. he is the former head of the verification and security policy coordination office at the international atomic energy agency and input and we have mohammad marandi he is a professor at the university of turin. in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want and i always appreciate it let's go to turn around 1st professor marandi. initial reports from the meetings in vienna are a little bit more upbeat than i would have expected a little i'm surprised i have to say here what is your perspective because as i said in my introduction it's the u.s. is going to have to do a lot of things to get back into this deal that it walked away from unilaterally iran is going to have to kind of tweak a few things here so how do you see things playing out go ahead. that's the reason why i am very cautious

administration there is a real split there are people within the biden ministration not just congress who do not really want to go back to the chase c.p.o. way to the iran nuclear deal as it was agreed in 2015 they want to renegotiate it they want to impose more restrictions on iran and for this to last longer the people within the biden ministration are not so much against sanctions they're just against the way that the trump administration did it they would like to have the same sions regime that essentially gives some control over iran's complete qana me control over to the development of its nuclear program and allows iran to have some breathing room to get some money to get some of its assets but not to be completely free of these these restrictions so the complication is not so much a legal or bureaucratic problem within the united states it's a quite it's a problem of political will is that president biden looks at the middle east looks at iran in a fundamentally different way than president obama did obama look at iran as it great opportunity like when president nixon went to

americans understand within the i didn't ministration that if we go back into the g.p.l. a united states would have to not only lift the sanctions that trump in we would have to lift almost all neatly relate sanctions legislatively with congress by 2023 and that's something that in the biden administration they understand they can't tarik what are the questions that iran is going to have to answer going forward related to nuclear research and development it is engaged in and how easy or difficult it is going to be to establish a continuity of knowledge for the. well that's a very good question this is something that the trump name should have thought about before the exhibit that j.c.b. away that or nearly 2 years now iran has been ramping up its enrichment program they have acquired experience in manufacturing centrifuges production of advanced centrifuges they have actually 15 designs of which 6 designs are producing and richer any i am including a 1000 centrifuges at fordo that are producing 20 percent enriched uranium so iran knowledge base and experience show base has increased cons

not to me after remained correct mystically cried after the bottom of ministration showed inclinations arrive at the iranian nuclear deal that. that was interesting because. i cannot believe that their various positions of the a.j.c. affair. has suddenly changed that is out of the question so how do you explain this huge reaction wouldn't be that. simply doesn't seem my chance all or much result on that on the part of much ability for that matter on the part of your white house of actually moving the rain is sheer any further than simply state if statements of intent. well. said leo not he seems it and you know he's busy a guy who is not just this state that was he says at this year's miss most are concerned when what happened in coach next week than what happened in the way the legion is going to win this thing and that's what he is suggesting that none of this you're suggesting this is that it should be substantiated but at the same time i think. he's biting son because you want to see what's the next move because as much as as much as we expect biden to be much most considerate solu

but by no ministration is moving forward with plans to pass a $2.00 trillion dollars spending bill so while they say it's for infrastructure folks republicans and even some democrats are saying it doesn't count their support that the pressure is on for the u.k. to decide if it will be the next country to require a vaccine for some say the plan to fully reopen with separate beside me and to the house and the house not we have a lot to get to so let's get started. beijing is set to take on the u.s. dollar in an unprecedented way as china becomes the 1st major economy to create a digital currency it's a new form of innovation at a time when everything is going digital but while crypto currencies offer a new world of privacy reports note that china's version of a digital currency is controlled by its central bank which will issue the new electronic money and as a result it is expected to give the chinese government vast new tools to monitor both it's economy and its people it would also create a new opportunity for global reach at a time when the u.s. is involved in conflicts around the w

forces but also among america's own partners just how exactly do you think that by the end of ministration can't restore this quote unquote. how did you pull that credibility deficit that america so ghostly possesses and in the middle is going to fare. as if it was some clueless specs to me will they send they think you fellows but no i think i use you don't i think what you say about going to your living if i don't mind syria i seem to actually president putin money moves. the united states and i think. we still do screw the ability to cold little movie docile. bush. to only the i.c.c. our ability i mean let's define the terms here because at credibility as far as i am concerned to something that you know you may disagree to the person or even a country but at least you see the bill or take all throughout what they're doing as far as a rush is concerned there's absolutely no logic in what the americans are trying to do in the middle east and no rational explanation. on the other hand i suppose i mean losing in syria which would be unacceptable to most the fust how are we supposed to lose

ties to the alliance which i would argue were strong and even in the trumpet ministration but they've been they've taken steps to reinforce that and but also you're still seeing disputes over the question of the pipeline perhaps nato spending you know they had 2 recent meetings lately but on the question of ukraine the alliances and the europeans and the americans stood very firm i would not have expected the e.u. for example to keep on rolling over its extensive sanctions since it would just take one e.u. state block them against russia for its actions in ukraine but we've got a fairly extensive law network of us european both nato and non nato member sanctions on russia so i think on the ukraine question there's been pretty strong solidarity that russia needs to roll back its ambitions in ukraine we store territory on top 30 that the country stop interference internal affairs and so on follow from your vantage point is there any hope that peace talks could get back on track anytime soon. woking of the operational peace talks of the 3 side. talks on in their means so-called means cra

official is arguing that congress should come together to support the biden ministrations $2.00 trillion dollars spending plan because of the impact it could count on china will just got a lot tighter and is under pressure to take action on the north stream q pipeline but could it do more harm than good on a project that is already in your completion then then most of you leave it platform to accept that point providing even more access to the world's most popular crypto currency we have a lot to get to so let's get started. by an administration is fighting an uphill battle as it works to gain support from republicans for the proposed $2.00 trillion dollar economic plan but while that would make the government's infusion of capital into the u.s. economy $7.00 trillion dollars in just over one year some are claiming congress should support it because of the impact it could have on china the latest plan would include $621000000000.00 for roads bridges public transit and electric vehicle development 580000000000 for manufacturing research and job training efforts 400000000000 to care for el

i think it shows once again how much continuity there is between the by did ministrations policies on migration and the trumpet ministrations policy on migration it's true as you mentioned there have been a spike in numbers at least of encounters at the border and these could be repeat repeat attempts at seeking asylum in the us but joe biden has retained the most draconian of the trump era policies notably title $42.00 which prevents the vast majority of asylum seekers and refugees from seeking due process in complete violation of international and domestic law only biden is allowing in unaccompanied children and rather reluctantly allowing in families with young children or those trying to pressure mexico to to keep those families with young children in mexico but the numbers that we got today from the white house no confirmation from any of the countries involved that mexico now has 10000 troops on the southern border that's notable because the numbers we got from mexico itself at the end of last month were far less than that mexico it sort of had $8850.00 national guard a both bor

president joe biden is that ministration is expected to announce a new target for reducing emissions kerry's visit will mark the 1st to china by a biden administration official despite strained u.s. chinese relations mr kerry is hoping the visit will help lay the groundwork for november's un climate summit in glasgow or china is the world's largest emitter of greenhouse gases with the u.s. in 2nd place kerry wants china to set a more stringent emissions target for 2030 now that is seen as crucial to limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees celsius the target set by the 2015 paris climate deal currently the world is falling well short of meeting that target in fact it's on course to warm up by more than 3 degrees scientists say the consequences could be catastrophic and could result in the loss of vital ecosystems such as coral reefs and that establishes ation of the polar ice sheets let's bring in ben herskovitz he is a research fellow in the school of regulation and global governance at the australian national university he joins us on skype from sydney ben welcome to al-jazeera mr ke

especially when you make sure that it knows that you have been closed and then you can yell and ministration book about jiggling tweeted it so it means it's meant something to bear and the end the end this is this is this message. don't expect to die metal if you don't because they see it's because they'll go and call that if you're not sitting. opposite policies get it as far as i'm concerned there is not change in practical trucks full of lively it's more nuanced for instance when he said mrs just to get palestinians to anyone use some of the 8 mysterious this entities did the students themselves summed it up. best new this is far from being good enough i would like to see united states is marching poles in a peaceful cess that ensured 2 state solution a fair and just solution but imo that naive does seem to be going to happen overnight if you look at the election the news or at issue technically out of the equation the majority of limitless knesset on the contestant and in the just in final solution with the mysterious if you look at the decisions among the palestinians it's been the hama

situation it really does seem that way and it's interesting to see it specifically how the biden ministration has responded because it seems like they want to set themselves apart from the trouble mr ation but then at the same time they also feel like they have to come out in opposition to this pipeline and you know it's interesting because in recent years we've seen how the u.s. has increased sanctions against both russia and china and yet at the same time both countries have used it as an opportunity to become more thoughts that fission and to move away from the u.s. dollar should there be more concern here in washington right now about how this strategy could backfire in the long run. no question there should be but it is equally certain that won't be long term policies are very difficult for people who are short term politicians nobody in washington who is now in a position of power knows whether he or she will be there after the next election or what conditions will govern what they can and cannot do and the rest of the world now understands this very very well so no one can count on wha

the bad news ministration is opening new shelters for unaccompanied children who've crossed the us mexico border and spending about $60000000.00 a week on the cat the aim is to reunite the children with their parents for grenell reports on one new shelter in southern california that's now receiving child migrants. in the city of long beach just south of los angeles a sprawling convention center has been transformed into a shelter for up to 1000 migrant children seeking asylum in the united states inside there are toys games recreation facilities and school classes all meant to provide humane care and lessen the trauma children feel after making the long dangerous journey to the u.s. border the mission of this center here in long beach is quick family reunification. the reifications should be done as fast as possible and we also know that the space that we are in is temporary is it incredibly important that in this moment we treat every single child with compassion with kindness and with love the bike did ministration has been under intense political pressure to deal effectively with the l

coming home to roost the bite in the administration yes did inherit a problem from the trumpet ministration in that you know they're inhumane treatment of you know immigrants including children in families or especially children and families. was a situation that wasn't necessarily created by biden and his administration however they hear about obama. you know yes. again that is true and no matter what rhetoric by news we plan to hold this administration's feet to the fire is the best thank you that's it for the show will be back on wednesday had it with us today for a special environment edition of going underground with the u.n. russia to on the environment and cease fire is the stuff captain paul walks on about capitalism and the threat of imminent human extinction event don't forget to subscribe so you know if he. went on the show seemed wrong wrong wrong just don't call. me. yet to shape out just being ethical and engage me because betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. psychiatric drugs are essential for millions of patients rather the

and iran back into compliance with the agreement the trumpet ministration turned its back on the deal back in 28 teams american and iranian envoys are not meeting face to face not even in the same room but it appears there was some progress with further talks now planned for 5 it. starting on tuesday delegates in this hotel began discussions on reviving the nuclear agreement with iran envoys from france germany britain russia and china are in talks with iran and acting as intermediaries with the u.s. . iran has high expectations. on state television a government spokesman projects confidence. that he says the talks are a good sign for the future but he says iran has conditions one is that sanctions must be lifted a spokesman for the u.s. state department says they will work to ensure that both sides can return to the agreement any unusual return but in return for an end to sanctions the u.s. is demanding that iran stop supporting terrorist groups and on the part of the united states the international nuclear agreement was put into place in 2015 on the mutual understanding there would

the rest of 2 suspected terrorists on the us mexico border beach to further criticism of the ministrations handling of the migrant crisis. stranded abroad for months and left with little option but to file a human rights complaint of their own country's refusal to let them come home we speak to an australian stranded in russia. it is a gross violation of our human rights to return it says. i should not be arbitrarily deprived the right to return to my home country. alone live from moscow this is. the program 1st the european medicines agencies confirms that astra zeneca is job is possibly linked to cases of unusual blood clots and that it should be listed as a very rare side effect of the faxing. takes up the story. well the economy has confirmed that there is a very possible link to red types of blood clots with low platelets what they say is that they think this could possibly be a response to the astra zeneca job but they haven't been able to specifically pinpoint but they think that i mean response could be something similar to a new moon response that's known for a drug called heparin

talks are underway in vienna to save the j c p a way the agreement the trumpet ministration unilaterally walked away from making the deal whole again is relatively easy for iran but that cannot be said for the united states does the buy didn't ministration have the political will to say yes. is your media a reflection of reality. in a world transformed. what will make you feel safe. isolation or community. are you going the right way or are you being led. directly. what is true what is faith. in the world corrupted you need to descend. to join us in the death. or a made in the shallowness. welcome back 1st they came for the gas guzzlers then plastic straws and cutlery and now they're literally coming for children streams the melfi french city of party as literally warned quote kids shouldn't even dream of flying and she scraps funding for the aviation club audience probably boyko through on her bouma jacket hit the runway and got reaction to the grounding from a flight instructor and examined. how large a show you are willing to sacrifice to save the world air travel is a major contribut

they don't want to be told what to do if the fuel is to listen to the pressures from the trumpet ministration and remember unlike the americans perhaps the europeans were really shocked by the support for mr trump's aggressive policies towards europe support not only in the republican party but in the democratic party and the party generally and they are not secure with the united states anymore and the power of the united states to call the 2 loops is being shown them other places by them saying no we're not going to stop this project we've invested billions in it we need it and you're not going to tell us what to do it's a pretty blunt situation it really does seem that way and it's interesting to see it specifically how the biden ministration has responded because it seems like they want to set themselves apart from the trouble mr ation but then at the same time they also feel like they have to come out in opposition to this pipeline and you know it's interesting because in recent years we've seen how the u.s. have increased sanctions against both russia and china and yet at the same time

but ministration back then everyone suddenly had a sense of journalistic duty to ask the hard questions and grill the administration over everything and anything this present like good you think candidates are going to question bill president like can you give us or closer to your doubting us can you give us a question don't be ridiculous or why should you not get to give you can use can you speak out or you are fake but you know if i mean one of the course of this president for me are you worried i should know that sort of president i think that's an ask one of the other folks that stood up for you that's enough put down the mike was president are you worried about indictments coming down in the supposed. but with biden's team it's a snooze fest screened questions scripted answers no accountability and a lot of circling back we will circle back with you if there's more to update you on that we'll have to take that question to you and circle back with you circle back on that one that's an excellent question i don't have any information in front of me both are excellent questions and the

are they doing they're focusing on making money and say again one of the areas where the bike ministration has fallen far short of what was expected many of the east privatized detention facilities for children are. pretty much immediate to requirements that are otherwise and forcible against similar. entities under state you know and local laws many of these facilities have witnessed child abuse. you know sexual abuse because there is a rush to shovel children off in any direction and that continues and what also worries us as advocates for children is that the lack of oversight in beast facilities continues i know that the government the u.s. government is sending out calls for volunteer stress brickley to come and help process children at the border process families at the border so that they don't end up in these the celebes but clearly if it's reeks of desperation it says if these folks and power haven't happened for the last 4 years and don't have a plan in continue to rely on the corrupt private entities they deny ole wrongdoing that they said he was an advocate of walked in and out

and europe may be faced with ministration here in iran is much less likely to want to talk to the united states and the europeans and much much less likely want to return to that deal but for foreigners to also did say that if the united states thinks that they can get concessions from iran through sanctions or encouraging acts of terrorism by israel against iran they're greatly mistaken and he also said that iran he promised that iran would improve their centrifuges and they were switched to more advanced centrifuges he said the investigation around in the 10s incident has been investigated and when they find out who is responsible there will be a response now aside from all the rhetoric one thing that iran has followed up on is every time that they has been an incident back in the explosion. the natanz plant iran said that they would expand their production they did that following the assassination of iran's lead scientist in november mohsin fuckers the iran said that they would would respond and what they did was increased enrichment and restricted i.e. inspectors now it looks like th

and its nato allies against getting too close to its border the biden ministration continues to call on its own allies to back out of the north stream to project even though the pipeline is now 95 percent complete. there is a little known company in baltimore maryland that has been vital to a covert 19 vaccine supply chain for drug makers like johnson and johnson which planned to deliver millions of doses by the end of may but that all changed when the plant was forced to throw out 15000000 doses of the vaccine and the u.s. government was forced to step in archie's true. nature has the latest today johnson and johnson doing damage control after it had to throw away 15000000 doses of its covert 19 vaccine following a production error at the emergent bio solutions in baltimore maryland the error occurring after view gradients for the astra zeneca vaccine were discovered in the johnson and johnson batch the astra zeneca vaccine ingredients produced on the other side of the same facility the biden administration now stepping in putting johnson and johnson in charge of the plant and stopp

well understand it by do ministration was compelled to reconstitute the mechanisms of national security policy and foreign policy making that the trump administration had done rove for other term in terms of how policy was made many positions were not staffed other positions were just ignored and you know trump and his inner circle were making policy as opposed to the old fashioned way where you know ideas were put out to different departments they came together and deputies committees in the national security council came together and principals committees where the cabinet members got together and made you know again the president. that's what's his returning to and when you do that you become a prisoner of process and so that's what we see with you know american foreign policy national security problems it day is that joe biden has allowed the bureaucracy. of decision making to once again take over and as a result we see a lot of confusion we see a lot of cross talk as they try to get their act together i don't think we have a mature foreign policy 'd that was relevant that was it wa

contrast with the previous administration's attitude toward migrant families during the trumpet ministration the policy of that administration was if parents came forward and they were undocumented maybe a week or 2 weeks later immigration authorities would be at their doorstep so that created a great level of anxiety and babble and advocates say ultimately developmental aid to impoverished central american countries and an overhaul of u.s. immigration laws are the keys to stabilizing the situation so that in the future no child should have to cross the border alone robert oulds long beach california. hello again the headlines on al-jazeera much needed medical supplies have begun arriving in india which is struggling to stem the spread of code 19 it accounts for half of the world's new infections one person is dying every 4 minutes incriminatory i'm sorry breaking points the u.s. is in sync over 1000 restrictions for people who are vaccinated.

military aid but the key issue of difference between the new by the ministration and that of benjamin netanyahu is continues as israel's prime minister now in this is caretaker role after the most recent election is the issue of iran and very different set of policy priorities on that front the biden ministration has said that it wants at least to get back to the j.c. p.o.v. the iran nuclear deal of course setting conditions on that iran is in a similar position while the very stark differences remain towards getting to an agreement and so after 4 years of the trumpet ministration the ministration talking in almost identical language about the iran issue today will be interesting to see how the 2 men lloyd austin and benjamin netanyahu how they convey their messages from the from the podium. thousands of people have been ordered to leave their homes in the caribbean island a. volcano erupted. for have been reported as far as the island of barbados and 200 kilometers away authorities say the eruption could go on for weeks . a towering plume of smoke and ash filled the sky over st vince
