A renewed crackdown in better routes to rally against the rule of the president s. Also a coup leaders in mali pledged political transition and new elections but the Security Council is urging soldiers to go back to the barracks. Backing by the running mate come the house and former president barack obama will head up the 3rd night of the Democratic National convention. So u. S. President donald trump is to demand that all United Nations sanctions be reimposed against iran it follows americas defeat over plans to extend an arms embargo against tehran trump says the secretaries that might on paper will travel to the u. N. In the coming days to start the process of restoring sanctions mike hanna following this one from washington d. C. For us. I mean donald trump can say these things and demand these things but in reality how will it play out how can it play out. Well its a very good question indeed its very unclear to see how such a thing could play out given that president withdrew the United States from the Iranian Nuclear deal back in 2018 now the un Security Council resolution in terms of which the deal was placed makes very clear that any member state has got to be a participant to that deal if it is going to ask for snap backs in terms of the sanctions that were lifted well this is not the case the u. S. Is clearly walked away from the deal russia and china would be absolutely opposed to it the u. S. Allies within the United Nations such as britain france and germany have made very clear they have no interest in any snap back whatsoever and that vote that you mentioned in the Security Council back on friday was an absolute humiliation for the United States where it attempted to extend the arms embargo against iran which expires in october the great allies of the United States all abstained to russia and china oppose they made clear they would have used the veto if necessary they did not use a veto because the only support the United States got was from the Dominican Republic so mike is going to the United Nations thursday he should hold a meeting with the u. N. Secretary general hes also going to be lobbying with other nations in the build it would appear to get some support for this u. N. Position but legally very unclear to see where he can go since president has withdrawn from that agreement and cannot impose sanctions of sanctions on behalf of an agreement of which the u. S. Is no longer a part iran is just something donald trump wont let go of really might i mean you need think about everything thats going on in the moment the lead up to the elections coronavirus the Postal Service issues which weve been talking about previously and now iran goes back on the agenda. Well theres no doubt at all that there was complete fury in the white house about that humiliating display in the United NationsSecurity Council on friday and certainly this move although legally it is and sound could create a massive discussion within the unit Security Council and also create major problems for the Security Council it is going to put nation against nation it is going to create a great disturbance and undercut the authority of the Security Council should the u. S. Persist in this actual move but it goes much further than this it creates ructions within the European Union the European Union so all the nuclear deal as its crowning achievement 27. 00 members of the European Union now if anybody said decides that they want to snap back sanctions theres a massively long procedure that goes before this can happen some would argue that President Trump is not only trying to undercut iran hes trying to undercut the very structures that put that nuclear deal in place a clue including his traditional allies like britain and germany and france and indeed the European Union so theres much more to this than what would appear to be some kind of willful move by the u. S. President some would argue that its a conscious attempt to weaken traditional longstanding allies but the other side of all of this is that most are going to sit and wait until november hoping that the administration changes so this issue does not have to be confronted but heres another but the secretary of state might pompei or says that he is going to call for the 30 day notice period in other words he wants issue decided before the elections by october so weve got a major crisis underway here and one which threatens to fundamentally undercount the Security Council of the United Nations extraordinary stuff and yes always viewed through november isnt it mike hanna in washington thank you for that. On to other news better result position is vowing to defy warnings by president Alexander Lukashenko on a tough new crackdown on dissent he ordered Security Forces to clear the streets after nearly 2 weeks of mass rallies over disputed Election Results because shankar also warned workers who have gone on strike that they will risk losing their jobs permanently the protesters have found support with the European Union which is announced new sanctions and says it will be recognizing the Election Results more of the sanctions the moment 1st step in reporting from one of the largest protests at Independence Square in the middle of mints. It was a very different mood on the streets of mens today compared to previous days not much of the euphoria and the festive mood that we felt that people had sort of found a new kind of freedom today it was more dominated by fear and tense because suppress a look at announced a new crackdown he has instructed his ministry to find those who have been organizing the rallies but still defiant protesters are back on the streets and a smaller number but theyre here and theyre still asking for new elections and to release all the political prisoners. But i mean. Its so more awful. And that this happens despite the threats and also the risk of hundreds of people have gathered here again at the Independence Square saying the president is fired meanwhile the Coordination Council set up by the Opposition Leaders for the kind of sky held its 1st meeting and has issued a manifest calling for a dialogue about a transitional yeah a new elections. That this Council Illegal im going to say that it was a coup detat but it also says theres nothing illegal they just want to have a garden with the president you know of course im afraid because i know the system used leading us to the present very near to where it. Was against which was. For me personally. We want to drill or we propose any legal steps so why should we be punished why thats a challenge for the opposition to keep the same masses on the street they have made its clear protesters are not giving up yet but maybe. Its Alexander Lukashenko. If i examine the Lucas Shanker is feeling the pressure hes not showing its the man hes rubella rose for more than 25 years and officially won this months election with 80 percent of the vote says his leadership is not in doubt just a thought that. If anyone thinks that the power here is staggering and shaking youre wrong i want to say that the power has someone to rely on so we will not waver we will follow up path as we should those who today especially abroad and this is clearly visible are plotting against us will get a serious rebuff. I was earlier the losing opposition candidate who fled to lithuania for her own safety and whose husband is in jail in belarus called on european leaders to get tough with the last order of jitteriness say in the ice.

And 50000000 euros of coronavirus in a met emergency support. Orvis of course is seen by the russian government as meddling a day after president Vladimir Putin wants his german counterpart not to interfere his foreign minister rejected calls for russia to press president Lucas Shanker to talk to the opposition to the deals to the that is news to everybody believing mediation is the only way out i implore them not to forget the way out west and colleagues mediated in 2014 during the my down in kiev when the esteemed representatives of the European Union mediated reached an agreement i will remember what that led to. So for now with the president threatening to go after dissenters in belarus and his main ally rejecting outside involvement in dialogue the fear and uncertainty that surrounded the elections a still there the dean baba aljazeera.

U. S. President ial nominee joe biden has said. They received some of his most powerful endorsements yet on day 3 of the Democratic NationalConvention Former president barack obama sold bus and bidens running mate come to harris will address supporters in whats become a Virtual Event because of the coronavirus biden was formally nominated by the party on tuesday to take on donald trump in event his president ial election here is alan fischer once again at the white house on deck for day 3 of the convention lets talk about barack obama 1st he has a is a pretty good record of giving these. Speeches at conventions. Thats right i mean 12 years ago very few people had had many stood up and delivered a speech at the Democratic National convention that really marked him as a future star but very people thought very few people thought he would be a future star just 4 years later when he ran for the presidency beating Hillary Clinton into the bargain he then had to pick someone as his running mate he decided to go with someone who campaigned against him and it was joe biden so we are expecting from him during is speech he is going to praise joe biden tell us what sort of Vice President he was but hes also going to attack donald trump hes delivering his speech from the museum of the American Revolution in philadelphia and the sensually that marks the theme of his speech he is going to say that in his view the republic that was created in that moment by that movement is under threat at this selection he says that donald trump has failed to reach some self to the standards of the office and it really is time for a change and its interesting but arc obama is doing this and people will say well he wasnt overly enthusiastic about backing joe biden and to a degree that is true because barack obama since he left office has been talking about the need for a new generation of Democratic Leaders he obviously backed Hillary Clinton 4 years ago and now hes backing 77 year old george biden so it makes it slightly difficult for him if were honest he would like to see a Younger Generation come through but perhaps he sees that Younger Generation and couple of heart is serious 55 significantly younger than joe biden who will also make her big speech on wednesday night yes and her spate i mean most of the speeches that the convention are about throwing support behind joe biden come to harris will obviously do that but shes got the added issue of selling herself to the american people. The idea of pressure of introducing yourself know people who follow politics know who she is shes a senator from california former attorney general in this state but more steepled full of politics like nerds like cuz theyre not fully up to date on who she is or the fact that she ran in the president ial campaign but before the know shes got to present her own personal narrative that she is the 1st woman of color to accept a normal nation for one of the major parties this is the 1st time in 180 years of democratic conventions that this has happened she will talk about her father who is if you make it an immigrant her mother who is n. D. And then the fact that shell look different from all the young children. But theyre all of the Vice President ial candidate is also very specific they go on the attack shes going to attack donald trump shes going to attack mike pence and shes going to attack donald trump record while in Office Donald trump has this described as a nasty woman and there are people in the Democratic Party telling me he aint seen nothing yet oh my goodness ok well talk to helen fisher again later on as the Convention Gets Underway day 3 hundreds of palestinians in the gaza strip have again protested against the u. S. Normalizing its relations with israel the 2 nations agreed to normalize ties under a u. S. Brokered deal hamas which controls gaza or is accusing the u. A. E.

L. O. Is the sole and legitimate representative of the Palestinian People so this is a message of unity who had a real junction you ease deals. That. Thats what happened in the Leadership Meeting on tuesday should have happened years ago its time for us to know that we have no one else to support us but our own unity. The argument that if you got a. Trim for palestinian cause and for the arab and muslim nations we came to send a message to out of nations and to our immediate brothers to repudiate the israeli him or not the agreement because it is a patroon for the palestinian cause rerouted here and will continue all kinds of resistance and you confirm that such normalization will not grant legitimacy for the zionist entity. The same sense of unity was reflected in the gaza strip hundreds from different palestinian factions have also participated in protests denouncing normalization some of the signs held in the protests read that palestine is not for sale while the iraqis are saying that their agreement with israel has managed to stop an accession palestinians say that an exception is a reality to illegal israeli settlements are built here on the lands of the village where the protest is being held and they are expanding just like other settlements in different areas in the occupied west bank and the fear here is that more arab states are going to be normalizing relations with israel leaving palestinians alone in their fight.
