A damaged child cancer treatments. The u. S. Has failed to persuade the Un Security Council to extend an arms embargo on iran it means that terror will soon be able to trade weapons without un approval the bid was the latest attempt from the u. S. To clamp down on the rein in arms sales accusing terror on of sponsoring state terrorism well the arms embargo is set to end on october 18th 5 years after the signing of Irans Nuclear agreement with world powers but the u. S. Wants it extended indefinitely thats been opposed by russia china and some other members of the Security Council washington insists it wont let the embargo and sect of state might pump aoe says the u. S. May now trigger a so course not but clause that restores all u. N. Sanctions on iraq will christensen image on us live now from u. N. Headquarters in new york kristen so this u. S. Sponsored voters failed was this expected and talk us through what exactly happened. Well we know that the chinese and the russians were expected to veto this resolution in the end they didnt have to but they were very strongly against the resolution from the beginning at the end of the day the United States only got one other vote in support from the Dominican Republic all other members of the Security Council abstained from the vote did not give support the United States secretary of state mike pompei o called this an inexcusable failure on the part of the Security Council to decisively act in the interest of International Peace and security he pointed out that other middle Eastern Countries including all the members of the Gulf Cooperation Council and israel had supported an extension of this arms embargo which has been in place for some 13 years but other members of the council including europeans who traditionally tend to ally with the United States here at the United Nations said that they were concerned about the unraveling of the nuclear deal that this was a part of and to them that was the paramount concern iran had threatened to withdraw from the deal completely if the sanctions went back into place and so we have not a surprise that it failed but a surprise that it failed so miserably and kristin that as weve been saying the u. S. Wants to extend the arms embargo against iran indefinitely so whats the next step for the americans will comes next. Well the United States has threatened to trigger whats known as the snap back provision in the Iran Nuclear Deal if iran is seen as violating one of the terms of the Nuclear Agreement any party to the deal is supposed to be able to trigger this snapback reimposing all of the sanctions internationally that once existed on iran but china and russia have said the United States withdrew from the nuclear deal 2 years ago so they forfeited their right to do that and other members of the council would seem to agree the europeans have expressed some misgivings and some concern about conventional weapons going to iran but at the end of the day they say that their concern about a Nuclear Weapon is paramount and that you know there is no clear Legal Mechanism to decide a legal dispute like this Going Forward if the United States and russia are on opposite sides here so they think this will lead to chaos on the council some members are hoping that they can renew negotiations and avoid that from happening but the United States is certainly threatening to invoke that snapback procedure all right of course and certainly live there for us from u. N. Headquarters in new york christiane thank you well al jazeera as a baby has been following the story from tehran he says iran will be treating the failed bid as a win over the u. S. Even going into this vote at the United Nations to extend the arms embargo we had had some strong rhetoric and language coming out from the iran president Hassan Rouhani had warned of a crushing response if the arms embargo had been extended from mr divides the reef had said that the u. S. Approach was feckless and unpredictable and now weve had rain in a bus a 2 day United Nations call it a day back over to the reins with very much see this particular back to let the United Nations as a victory for themselves and use it to show how little support the United States has in its approach to iran but also will be used domestically by the iranians because this 2015 nuclear deal didnt have total support across the political spectrum and president Hassan Rouhani is and his government did take their political reputations to take a hit when donald trump pulled the United States out of that deal so this will be seen as iran as a diplomatic victory over the United States well this comes as the u. S. Department of justice says it sees during any of the fuel from 4 tankers headed to venezuela both iran and venezuela currently under u. S. Sanctions were brought in mali reports the u. S. Is calling it the largest seizure of fuel from iran the better the bearing the panty and the luna said to be heading to the u. S. 4 tank is carrying more than a 1000000 barrels of oil have been seized by the u. S. Government after it won a federal court order in july for tankers theyre going to use them and theyre there. Theyre not supposed to be doing that or ones are supposed to be doing that and so we did we see the tankers and were moving them and moved to euston but iran says the liberian flag ships had nothing to do with them it accuses the us of lies and psychological warfare 0. 09 with a lot of no right now theres nothing planned because we havent had a request from our venezuelan friends as they are reactivating their own refineries u. S. Officials are experts in fabricating lies and carrying out shows in the media i ask you who is the bigger victim of terrorism the us or iraq the details of the capture a murky when the seizure order was produced more than a month ago all of the ships turned off the tracking devices seemingly not wanting to be filmed but whats certain is that trump is running up his campaign against iran and venezuela at sea well i would call it a continuation of it has the effect of being an escalation. Because the United States hasnt done a set too much to date actually seize the oil but the United States has a policy of trying to drive Iranian Oil Exports to 0 theyve frozen iranian revenues from from previous sales so in effect that was confiscating it and yes this just ratcheted up another step that its weight has become increasingly more reliant on oil from iran it previously received shipments him a jew. And president Nicolas Maduro thanked iran for the oil in the tweet although venezuela sits on one of the walls Largest Crude Oil reserves its unable to refine it u. S. Sanctions corruption and the lack of investment is blamed for the decline despoil industry. Venezuela and iran acted in defiance of those thanks him but this season at sea appears to still much key to trade between the allies youre about him and the aljazeera so lets bring in Lawrence Brennan hes a junk professor of admiralty on International Maritime law at the Fordham University school of law he joins us live via skype from new york city loans good to have you on the program broadly speaking this was a unilateral move by the u. S. Acting on the warrant issued by a u. S. Judge the sanctions against both countries are not u. N. Sponsored yet these ships was seized in International Waters so i suppose the question many people want to know is that was this season illegal under International Rule oh its absolutely a goal and there are certain details that need to be considered this is similar to other seizures that have occurred and its not clear if its a seizure of ships or seizure of oil there are reports different than what President Trump mentioned where the oil was transferred from the 4 ships. Outside the strait of hormuz to other ships a ship to ship transfer in International Waters but fundamentally we go back to the basis of the u. S. Request involving Foreign Court orders and thats the mutual Legal Assistance trees in the United States request is based upon the warrants or the admiralty orders from the u. S. District court in the district of columbia for the arrest this is similar to what was done last year in the case of a north korean ship that was seized in the South Pacific it was the ship known as wise honest and that ship was forfeited and in damned by the u. S. Admiralty court in the district of new york and how does this season then lawrence relate to the u. S. Out moti practice and how similar was this to the attempt to seize an iranian tank on its congo in gibraltar last year i think it was. It is generally similar but it did not involve the use of armed military forces as occurred injured brault or this is a legal proceeding the public documents suggest that the United States negotiated with the owners operators of those 4 tankers fate your correspondent mentioned and a range peaceably and agreeably for the transfer of the iranian oil refined oil headed to venezuela to other ships those ships are the ones that the president indicated have arrived in u. S. Waters or about to arrive in u. S. Waters attachments and seizures of property have a distant u. S. Admiralty practice in many other admiralty practices since the beginning of this republic 230 years ago so lets talk about the oil because we understand the oil is now headed to houston what happens to it because when it is sold off at auction the nuns i mean are there federal rules that govern the sale of these sorts of confiscated assets oh absolutely when i was at the department of justice i represented the u. S. Marshal regularly in ship arrest and seizure seizure of cargo was less frequent than ship arrest but theres an entire procedure in the marshals manual for how the sale is operated and it requires they heads and sails and gives clean title to the seized cargo with the c. Ship so we can expect the marshal in the Southern District of texas at euston to hold a public option in the near future lawrence quite a bit to get your thoughts thank you for talking to al jazeera thank you. Thanks thank you for inviting.

On average it can cost more than 100000000 dollars and take years to put a vaccine through all 3 stages of development with no guarantees of success with time of the essence in the covert 1000. 00 pandemic many governments are picking up the costs taking the financial risk to help speed up the process the government has basically taken the risk out.

Headquarters in new york catch here is that the United States withdrew from the nuclear deal 2 years ago and so members of the council are arguing particularly russia and china that the United States doesnt have standing to make such a claim because it withdrew from the deal unilaterally it cant now come back and claim to invoke part of that so there is no clear Legal Mechanism to settle this dispute in the council if the United States decides to go forward in that way this could be really. To malta was time for the Security Council and there is no clear mechanism for resolving the dispute well this comes as the u. S.
