u. n. u k? well, stock says iran is expanding its uranium enrichment capabilities that there's been a scaling back in terms of i. e, i. e, a access to some nuclear sides. western diplomats have said that without a full sort of understanding of arounds, capabilities, it's hard to reach an agreement, what is around calculation then? i think it's parts a lot calculations but and other parts are very important part in this you know, development on nuclear activity, restricted to kind of what we can call the reaction. and it's a reaction not only to deal with maximum pressure as mr. mandy, just mention what's also and more importantly, i think, to the recent, very, very xander sabotage tax against its nuclear. so basically, i mean, honestly speaking they can see the developments on the ground at the more israel tries to kind of slow down the runs program. the more unions are determined to develop their new programs. so this has been one of the main issues behind this development, which is what, on the other hand, in terms of calculation, of course, a very important part of the reason i'm trying to ration it's has been to use it as a leverage because just imagine a suspicion after this for maximum pressure and imposing sanctions. i guess you don't. if you don't want to go sankey without any actually in the, in the position that it was before with all of its would be in a very nice position. so that was, i think, one of the main reason that started in the 1st place to advance it's nuclear activities. so the combination of these 2 factors have kind of let us to the situation that we are now. i'm a brandy m u c. and his 1st public statement as president and lex said that his government's foreign policy would need to begin nor end with the j c p. o way sort of indicating that it wouldn't be quite the, the foreign policy focus that perhaps had been in the past. has the wrong position going into these talks this time, the 7th set of talks hasn't changed at all. no, not at all. in fact, i think one of the mistakes, the former president ro, honey, was constantly say that the j t o a with or the new the negotiations were his priority. and that gave the americans beverage and constantly thing that we need to deal was, was, was like poison or iranian position. the run in negotiating t. what present ratio saying is that we will do a deal if they accept the j. c, p, o, a info. well sign up to we will, what will we signed up? we've been implementing it and we still are implementing it because our, as i said, the fact that we're not implementing the deal itself, our ryan audience with the 2 articles t

u. n. u k. wells talk says iran is expanding its uranium enrichment capabilities that there's been a scaling back in terms of i. e, i. e, a access to some nuclear sides. western diplomats have said that without a full sort of understanding of around capabilities, it's hard to reach an agreement. what is around calculation then? i think it's parts say, well, calculations but, and other parts are very important part in this, you know, development of nuclear activity. this kind of what we can call the reaction and it's a reaction not only to us maximum pressure, as mr. mandy just mention what's also and more importantly, i think, to the recent, very, very xander several times attacks against it's. so basically, i mean, honestly speaking, i think they can see the development on the ground at the more israel tries to kind of slow down your own smoking program, the more your renewals are determined to develop their new programs. so this has been one of the main issues behind what on the other hand, in terms of calculation, of course, a very important part, a calculation. it has been to use it as a leverage because just imagine assertion. after this whole maximum of british or angry, imposing sanctions against you, if you don't want it to concert in your shank table without any are actually in the, in the position that it was before with all of it's would be in a review position. so that was, i think, one of the main reason that it started in the 1st place to launch its nuclear activity. so the combination of useful factors have kind of led us to the situation that we are now. i'm a brandy everywhere you see. and his 1st public statement as president and lex said that his government's foreign policy would neither begin nor end with the j c, p, o, a sort of indicating that it wouldn't be quite the, the foreign policy. so focus that had that had been in the past has around position going into these talks this time, the 7th set of talks hasn't changed at all. no, not at all. in fact, i think one of the mistakes of former president ronnie was to constantly say, see if you a were or nuclear negotiations were his priority. and that came, americans leverage and constantly saying that we need a deal was like poison or iranian position. and the run in negotiating t, what present ratio saying is that, look, we will do a deal if they accept the j c, p, o, a n o. well sign up to we will, what will we signed up to it? we've been implementing it and we still are implementing it because our, as i said, the fact that we're not implementing the deal itself are right in the audience with the 2 articles that i mentioned earlier. but for the fact that the present res, using our priorities to develop pies with regional countries, to develop eyes with asian countries, this is sending a signal to the united states that we're going to be waiting for the j. c pos. we're not going to be waiting for if you want to commit yourself so that you're fine. but if you don't, we're going to be developing our economy based on the resources that we have at hand. we're not going to just sit there and hope that you're going to see the like, i know you talked a lot about the impact of us sanctions. what do you think? how much difference will it make for iran if the agreement is restored? because if the next us present just does the same thing that trump does, you know, could that not be a warning find happy or mean banks and businesses don't have the confidence that perhaps they want it? yes, and that's a major concern. the iranian negotiators have the united states, it has become an unreliable country. there are so much instability and us politics that we can't gauge what is going to happen tomorrow with us decision making process. but what is, what is a fact is that the united states today is much weaker than it was in 2015. it is a divided country, it has major economic, social, and political problems. it is confronting to rising powers, china and russia, and ukraine. and taiwan and over artificial intelligence and u. s. allies in west asia are foundering on the decline, whereas the runny program as your previous guess, right? the pointed out has developed the united states leaving the deal. and the running position is much stronger today than it wasn't to 2015. so time is not on the side of the americans. but the problem is, is that the americans, often i think they are looking at it from a position of arrogance. they don't see the reality that the reality on the ground is changing and if they do, they don't have to will to do something about it. ok, hillary man leverage. do you agree with that assessment of american strength or otherwise and and also from the u. s. perspective has anything changed given around new leadership. there this question about whether the us power in decline is of course, an important question. but the reality is as long as the world, the international community continues to trade and price everything, including oil in the dollar. the u. s. dominant over the internationa

u. n said is receiving credible reports that all sides in ethiopia is conflict. are committing severe human rights violations. u. k prime minister boris johnson says he accepts full responsibility following the crushing defeat of his conservative party in a bi election. conservatives lost the seat of nor shropshire for the 1st time in almost 2 centuries. it became vacant when the previous conservative and pay was forced to resign for breaking parliamentary rules from wham in shropshire. under simmons reports on the latest in a series of setbacks for boris johnson, country life in north shropshire has been synonymous with conservative voting for nearly 2 centuries. but not anymore. morgan, helen, margaret, lillian, liberal democrats. 17000. 957. o helen morgan is now the m p from centralized opposition party that smashed at 23000 majority for boris johnson's conservative party. if he could have no structure had spoken on behalf of the british people, they said loudly and clearly vice johnson, the parties, ada johnson responded by saying he took full responsibility. i totally understand people's frustrations. i i hear what the vouchers are saying in north structure and oh, humidity. i gotta accept either that verde the liberal democrat party with its battle ground headquarters in the grounds of a stately home brought in activists from all over the country a mile down the road. they quickly conquered the market town of wim. the conservative club a desolate place in defeat. talking to people here and it's plain to see that this isn't just about public unease midway through a government term. it's about trust, political leadership, and one person. the prime minister dennis prince, voted liberal democrat, not because it might be better for his business. he had been outraged by a christmas party in downing street a year ago when his mother was seriously ill in a care home. not being able to visit her for a year. i had a very detrimental effect on my mother's well being. and now we find that the people that were telling us to stay at home, social distancing, et cetera, et cetera. when you find that they've been having parties at downing street and a conservative h q, then that's pretty hard to take. this bi election was called after the m p. o. in patterson broke rules on lobbying, he'd been paid by 2 private companies to try to influence government policies. madison quit after borrows. johnson botched an attempt to save him from a suspension from parliament. what's also we can johnson's authority is a rebellion by a 100 conservative m. p. 's voting against the use of coven passes. john murray is a former conservative mer of when he says johnson is now a liability. basically hasn't got the backing of the party any more, really was an awful lot against him. so one thing, one day and those totally the opposite elect day. the conservatives are likely to review the way they govern when parliament returns from the christmas recess and the new year. there's little political cheer for boris johnson right now. andrew simmons, al jazeera wim shropshire, it's been an out said the top official heart of investigating alleged parties and government offices in breach of last year's climate restrictions. a step down cabinet secretary simon case recused himself, after reports an event was held in his own office. l a foreign minneapolis police officer can posture is been testifying in ham man so to trial following the shooting death of 20 year old black man dante wright portrait claim she meant to draw her taser instead of had gone when she shot right. and he was trying to drive away from officers seeking to arrest him video. the shooting which happened in april was recorded on police body cameras and shining court rights. death set off launch protests across the united states. as your, as john henderson joins me now from chicago. and composite, testified in high defense today. what did she have to say, john? marian, this was a divisive and highly anticipated case, and it came at a crucial time. it came in the middle of the trial of derek shaven. he's the police officer who was ultimately convicted for killing george floyd by kneeling on his neck. now during that trial, kim potter was a police officer in the neighbouring suburb of brooklyn's center. she was with another officer supervising him as he stopped a car. and in the course of that, she pulled what she says, she thought was her taser, which was on the left hand side. instead, she pulled her gun. she fired after yelling taser taser taser. and she said that's when she discovered she had actually killed a man. here's a little of what she had to say. it's just, it's just one chaotic it and then i remember yelling, teaser, teaser teaser and nothing happened. now both sides in this case agree that dante wright should be alive today. kim potter side argues that this was a tragic mistake, but one in which she wasn't aware that she was doing anything wrong and therefore she should not be convicted. however, it's the jury who will ultimately decide. and john, this all started with a simple traffic stop. how did it go so wrong? that's right, it was a simple traffic stop. and potter herself says it's probably not one she would have pursued if she were alone, but she says the officer that she was supervising noticed 2 things wrong with that car. first, it had expired tags. now that happens a lot here during the covey era, and she says, normally they don't really worry about that too much. people have a hard time getting to the department of motor vehicles to redo those tags. also there was an air freshener dangling from the rear view mirror. now that's a legal because it tends to block the driver's view, but those are both minor points. this is what she had to say about that. an air freshener to me is not just an equipment violation. and during the cove at times, the high cove at times, departmental motor vehicles was so offline that people were getting tabs and we were advised not to try to enforce a lot of those things because the tabs were just not in circulation. potter is charged with 1st in 2nd degree manslaughter. now legal experts say under minnesota long, they probably have to prove that she acted with some level of consciousness that she knew that what she was doing was excessive force. the defense is arguing that because she didn't know that she had actually pulled a lethal weapon, she was not aware of that. ultimately, it's the jury that we'll decide. thank you very much. john had him with the latest on that site from chicago. now thousands of tunisians have been out protesting on the 11th anniversary of the uprising, which triggered the arab spring revolution. oh, rally both for and against president. i

violence against children with almost half a serious risk of physical, emotional, or sexual violence. it's report shows a 44 percent rise in the number of cases of child abuse and exploitation, handled by unicef and its partners in the 12 months from october 2020, to october 2021. about 1800000 children are facing multi dimensional policy. this includes housing, health care, and education deprivation, their height and risk of abuse, such as child labor and child marriage to help their families cope. at least a 1000000 children at risk of direct violence, driven by the stresses of the economic crisis in coven locked downs. there's also gonna a sharp rise in domestic violence against women and girls on the job. marla mcgee, does the special representative of the un secretary general violence against children. she explains how violence against kids can be prevented. lebanon, as well as many countries is award. however, if i mentioned on children's rights and have to guarantee their rights and we despise the fiscal constraints, they have to see a really high protection and protection of the most vulnerable, including, i mean really as a priority despite fiscal constrain, despite all of this crisis and here is the support of un is really here to remind zat, but is also in a close partnership with government. and we've all the key partners really to make it happen today because we need to react very, very quickly to protect children, to provide them with social protection, with psycho social support with education and also really making sure that it's really joy implemented and really accessible to all children, a family without discrimination and showing that no one is left behind the 7th round of talk, same to revising the 2015 iran nuclear deal. as conclusion, the austrian capital vienna parties to the talks are hoping to resurrect the agreement, which sees iran limit its nuclear activity in exchange for sanctions relief. it's been breached on both sides since the united states pulled out 3 years ago. those such a buyer reports now from vienna on the days events. an unprecedented display by the united nations nuclear watchdog this. this is one of the cameras, the international atomic energy agency, has been trying to get reinstalled in a workshop outside to hans since june. that 20, raining official say, an act of sabotage was carried out damaging these cameras. iranian officials are about to conclude their investigations. some iran say these cameras have played a role in the attack. my charge, the director general denies it, is, are served to believe or to say that the i e commerce would have been part of some sort of solvent data is number one. number 2, this commerce do not have any transmitter. any beacon that can be used in the way that it was alleged as the issue of iran's compliance with a i. e a seems to have been resolved for now. the european signatories to the deal, france, germany, u. k. along with russia and china and the united states, wrapped up their 7th round of talks in vienna. now it's clear the clock is ticking . we don't have much time there is hm, obvious sense of urgency in every pin we do here. so we will resume. we will resume shawn or we will be, i hope, javion, the final french of these negotiations. the leader radian negotiator, a deputy foreign minister ali buggery. connie is more helpful than ever before. that's because the 2 proposals iran put forward at the start of this round, which began on november 29th have finally been agreed on by all parties. and the most important
