To the general population there will be a few communities where its more commonly et but beyond that really this is just something which creates so much problem for japan all around the world and its done a very strange thing with this latest move michael you were nodding there listening to mark bristol staying with you in tokyo is there a silent minority of people who if it came down to put in a cross in a box i guess would support the wheeling industry because theyre and t. And t. Whaling industry people because they feel theyre being got at because they feel perhaps no somebody outside japan should not tell us what to do. Well if i was to characterize the majority japanese position on the issue of whaling it would be indifference its simply this not part of their daily lives and and that their its not something that they they see a lot on the media here its just not a concern but there are 2 points i think are worth bearing in mind about this change one is that the compared to the commercial whaling that had been done until recently now were good actually the amount of catches of whales the amount of whales being killed by japan under this new commercial whaling programme is actually far less than they had been doing under the socalled scientific whaling until recently and within the within the i. W. C. And another point is that in a sense the mask is off now you know japan had been pretending for decades that it was about science it was about Something Else now in a sense there theyve been outed and we now know that its about business Money Politics so in that sense its also something that damages their position can in southampton what are the chances that a japanese Prime Minister does quote so i used the phrase advisedly does the right thing and lets loose Market Forces on the whaling industry because surely if you let loose Market Forces the industry ceases to exist of course yes i mean a pay no show its a subsidies for decades and. But we see say they surround around the world having a climate issue aged and you know i say wait wait carol from the Paris Agreement not wanting to control its Carbon Dioxide similar sort of thing driven driven by love yeah straws have been signed. No wishing to put words into your mouth mark simmons and bristol how much longer will this industry carry on being i guess a touchstone of National Identity. Im not sure it is a touchstone a National Identity i think its important to some people its important to some communities and when the fleets were launched just in the last day also we saw a lot of activity an interest in japan and of course thats part of the campaign in favor of it and its worth remembering that japan has put millions of dollars millions of pounds millions of yen into its campaigns over the years to maintain this this industry and i dont think that the Prime Minister is going to move away from that position so i dont think we can put a sort of timeline on this at all and im also quite sure that japan is watching to see how the west rest of the world is responding to what its doing and thats going to be very important and i think a strong response is required so certainly organizations like my own have been calling for high level diplomatic response so that japan understands that going whaling outside of the appropriate International Body which was set up to to manage it and which at this time is still maintaining its moratorium is absolutely thats the wrong thing to do and on the numbers issue that michael brought up if i if i may peter. Michael said that the numbers have have come down so its been quite difficult over the last couple of days to actually work out what the quotas look like the initial quota figures it seems didnt cover the catch for the whole of the year and so were now looking at a catch in the North Pacific of Something Like 383. 00 whales altogether which is certainly more than was being caught in the North Pacific on the research whaling but where i can i can agree with michael is that the other research whaling program which was in the Southern Ocean which is being closed down that was catching 333 minky well so weve lost that but these are very early days and were watching these quoters and trying to understand how theyre being calculated very carefully and intriguing point to end discussion today here on inside story can michael mark thank you all thank you to our gay.

Irans president says its part of its partners in the 2015 nuclear deal do not fulfill their promises Irans Nuclear reactor will return to its previous activities has some rouhani says after july the 7th they will go to whatever level is needed european Foreign Ministers say theyre extremely concerned iran has exceeded limits on its low uranium stockpile despite this britain france and germany say they wont try to reimpose u. N. Sanctions. Joins us now live from tehran understand officials also been explaining why they dont find that european work around system in stakes effective what are they saying. Yes thats exactly right said weve been hearing from a number of Senior Leaders this morning the Supreme Leader the foreign minister divides reef the oil minister but it was comments from president Hassan Rouhani that really crystallized how angry the rebuke against the United States currently is with regards to ongoing u. S. Sanctions mr Hudson Ronnie characterized or he responded actually this morning to comments by u. S. President donald trump that characterized irans rolling back of its commitment with the nuclear deal as playing with fire and heres some of what he said about that. Over the past year it is them who started the fire we will extinguish it if you say it is dangerous to play with fire so why did you start it you can control it return to your commitments return to what the u. N. Security council has ratified. And whats the word does a noun the next round of iranian measures on july the 7th. Will iran has said over and over again that if the United States doesnt return to the nuclear deal that if other signatories to the deal dont help mitigate the impact of u. S. Sanctions that iran will continue a schedule of rolling back cooperation with the 2050 nuclear deal that began in 2 months ago nearly 2 months ago with irans pledge to breach a stockpile limit of enrich uranium below enrich uranium which it did just a few days ago the deadline for is iran that iran set for the signatories to the deal is july 7th us just a few days saying that if the other parties to the deal dont fulfill their commitments iran will take the next step now mr rouhani said that that could be enriching uranium at higher purity levels beyond the agreed 3. 67 percent he also said that they could restart other Nuclear Facilities and continue their decision to really expand the scope of their Nuclear Program here in the country now iran has said with regards to your earlier comment with regards to what europe can do iran has said that in stacks which is effectively a banking bypass designed by europe to facilitate a kind of oil for Goods Program for iran mr rouhani said that that is not a perfect solution but while it isnt perfect if it worked its something iran could go along with but what he said about that this morning he characterize that as a kind of tokenism he said it was European Countries trying to show off that they were doing something but the fact is that this system is like a bank with no money in it so why should iran go to that back all right well leave it there for now thanks so much. Returning to our top story now an air strike on a migrant camp in libya has left 40 people dead. Is a political analyst in tripoli he joins us now from there good to have you with us 1st of all any evidence of who did this airstrike well the evidence. Per preliminary but they are clear of the l n a and now is that it targeted tripoli and its suburbs as you were or and also said that antiaircraft guns from the ground is there were responsible for hitting the. Refugee center but we know that Refugee Center from all looks was hit from the skies and was completely destroyed why would anyone hit the migrant camp well you know the l n a hit the area before the area has. Probably some targets that are of interest to the elderly but this is a very dense densely because the firefight were talking about called for half those forces just for viewers who are not perhaps merely a would be over terminology yes yeah and there were. There were some civilian casualties about 3 people died at that time this area is only. 3 minutes drive from where im sitting now its only 15 minutes drive from the Prime Ministers house is very densely populated civilian area very much grow in suburb of tripoli and. Completely meaningless to head this area. Given the chaotic situation in the conflict in the country there right now is there likely to be any accountability. Are the things so you know the m. R. Art is the easy option is interfering in the war directly with their airplanes there was no response. Have committed a lot of and his troops committed a lot of. War crimes according to the International Criminal court busy we havent seen anything now we discovered u. S. Javelin. Tank. Missiles. Passed by the iraqis to after i dont think theres anything would happen just like Nothing Happened with the discovery of some weapons in yemen from the m r r ds this have things that divisions and the saudis and the these and the french have enough ball to to stop anything that may or may come from the International Community or i will leave it there for now thanks so much for your thoughts on that thank you probe aging politicians in hong kong say it could cost around 1300000. 00 to repair the largest the building which was ransacked by Protesters Police have declared it a crime scene as the cleanup continues a special task force has been set up to look into mass protests most of which were peaceful they were triggered by a controversial bill which would allow extradition to Mainland China lets go to adrian brown in hong kong and adrian understand
