And they are thank you so much for your company everyone. Iran says the path to diplomacy between tehran and washington is now permanently closed well the statement comes after the u. S. Impose new sanctions on irans Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khomeini and other top officials and Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman said the measures were a sign of americas quote this parisian but u. S. President dont call them a strong and proportionate response to irans increasingly provocative actions. After ramping up the pressure the United States struck a more conciliatory tone at a meeting with israel in russia and jerusalem u. S. National security adviser john bolton encouraged iran to seek dialogue the president has held the door open to real negotiations to completely and verifiably eliminated Irans Nuclear Weapons Program its pursuit of Ballistic Missile Delivery Systems its support for International Terrorism and its other malign behavior worldwide all that iran needs to do is to walk through that open door predictably u. S. Attempts to use economic leverage to get into negotiations did not go down well with tehran irans president on monday lashed out at trump for imposing sanctions on irans head of state i told a company that you know i dont mean god. Is that how can a person lose their mind so badly. And do something so outrageous and idiotic huge by sanctioning the leader of a country home time one of the latest round of sanctions comes after iran shut down a u. S. Drone over the gulf of oman the u. S. Also blames terror on 1st during off attacks on oil tankers in the area iran denies the accusations. Sanctions were 1st levity in august last year shortly after the u. S. Were in their town when you cant deal struck by the obama administration. Iran in may announce a partial withdrawal from the deal and said it would grow its stockpile of weapons grade uranium. At a Un Security Council meeting germany spoke for many when it voiced fears of the saber rattling could escalate into war france germany and the United Kingdom are gravely concerned by the increased tensions in the coffin that were further heightened to have to Downing Office a u. S. Drone by iran on the 20th of june these developments risk miscalculation and conflict we called for deescalation and dialogue with respect for International Routes but with both the u. S. And iran unwilling to back down such calls are likely to go on im certain. Thats get you more now with simon maven hes a mideast analyst at Lancaster University joins us now from the city of leeds in the u. K. A very good day to you sir the u. S. Here is using the carrot and stick approach with iran ramping up the pressure on the why havent i subsequently dialing a down and striking a more conciliatory tone whats the goal here i think the goal is to is to curtail iranian influence across the middle east and to make sure that iran cannot achieve an uclear Weapons Program thats always been president trumps and the goal to ensure that iran is not stable to make a Nuclear Weapon but also increasingly to try and make sure that iran is not able to continue supporting groups like hezbollah the lebanese cos you have god and also groups like the who these were fights in the conflict in yemen so its 2 fold but fundamentally its about curtailing iranian influence either through conventional approaches and Nuclear Weapons or through providing support for malicious but is that working i mean theyre digging in there with their backs against the wall are they about to recapitulate. I dont think it is to be honest we know the economic sanctions are biting across iran we know that people are struggling we know that yesterday the u. S. President put sanctions on hamann i even though he said in a in a press conference that youve got them on khamenei the former Supreme Leader whos been dead 30 years but the Iranian State is not going to go away in the face of a little bit of prussia it will fight back it will push back and its got a lot of means to do so its got a long proud reputation not proud reputation is not going to be cattails by by trumps antagonistic bombastic poses so its an incredibly difficult incredibly tense time right now in the gulf but also beyond in terms of International Security and diplomatic overtures from from european states trying desperately to prevent this from escalating on that note russia has just weighed in as well saying the u. S. Drone that was shot out of the sky by iran was flying in iranian air space whats the mindset of moscow where do they stand in this conflict but i think moscow has a long long and strong relationship with with many into iran is a complicated relationship but its one that sent george through through recent events in syria and before that as well so i think iran is russias not true ally here we know that the russia in the United States of being engaged in a bit of a increasingly fractious rivalry does played out across the middle east and so its moscows thinks that this is another opportunity to try and stick it to the United States to try ending increase its own employ its own leverage in the region through iran but also as a means of tailing u. S. Influence analyst simon it may have been a firm lancastrian university thank you for weighing in thank you want to tell you now about some of the other stories making news around the world.

The German Military is investigating what caused a midair collision between 2 fighter jets on monday when 300 soldiers are searching the crash site in the northeast of the country for clues or both pilots ejected from their youre a fighter jets one was killed and the other is reported to be injured but in a stable condition in the hospital. The day after the crash the scene of the accident has been cordoned off and classified as a military security area the German Armed Forces the bundeswehr have taken command of the investigation the search continues for the flight data recorders of the 2 crashed euro fighters yesterday afternoon the jets collided during a simulated dogfight near merlots one pilot saved himself by ejecting and parachuting to safety the 2nd was killed some wreckage fell near a residential area but nobody on the ground was hurt. If you think we were very lucky that the plane crash landed in a field. Very near there is a residential area and a kindergarten. I dont even want to imagine what would have happened if the plane had crashed there. For the residents it was depressing but they were relieved as i was that we escaped a major catastrophe and meanwhile 300. 00 soldiers are still searching the crash site the impact gathered parts in a radius of up to 10 kilometers Civil Emergency services are also helping to secure toxic wreckage to balkan states North Macedonia and albania are hoping to become the newest members of the European Union talks over their possible a session do later this year but North Macedonias membership bid has stalled over a decades long dispute about the countrys name you remember greece long fear that the country of macedonia could claim a greek province of the same name last year the 2 countries struck a deal they agreed that the republic be named North Macedonia paving the way for its membership of the European Union and nato all the countries also stepped up its fight against crime and corruption something the e. U. Has praised. All right and with me here in the studio is steve o. Append a roski a president of North Macedonia and mr president id like to extend a very warm welcome thank you for being with us here on news lets get straight to the core of the issue that of e. U. Membership what kind of role does your country want to play in the European Union 1st of all we would like to be in the European Union or. So we are a small country with a bit of poor resources and certainly we can of the ones being can do European Union we tend to be the key stakeholder them bob we would like to go through that process of european ization and theres the reason why we need the socalled external evaluator from brussels when to all of these down to 5 chapters in order to better the lives of all citizens and to have most institutions than we have at the moment but theres been a stumbling block to say the least of course some e. U. Member states and most notably france germany and the melons have said back off a little bit because we need some more time in october well let you know do you expect them to give you the green light or to hold off talks on the session we expect 100 percent that theyre going to be given the green light you know why because at the moment theres no any single government of the e. U. Member states saying that north must when it doesnt deserve to start and to open these negotiations talks so thats 100 percent sure we got assurances by our friends in the lead in germany we have a clear assurances by france and we have korea and so to say by holand and then not a few of the countries which have some kind of remarks last year when you look union got to that conclusion to have no muscle going to be decided next june of the deal with issues of closed so we are quite sure that september. Will taken that decision and you will immediately after that in brussels all humans days well vote for opening the negotiations because what im wondering though is like everything in life timing is everything the countrys rich joined the bloc back in 20042007 they are at loggerheads some of them with the European Commission to do with rule of law to do with not effectively fighting corruption is that meeting the challenge for North Macedonia show much more difficult you know we would like to be the colazal damages of some eventual pas the best performances being in the European Union if they not performed well the south of those contests what we are asking for from. European union fests judge us on individual that its best for this we should deliver it you have asked for a few of the many preconditions we should deliver including the famous and the historic i was impressed by the so please judge us on our individual achievements in the meantime so i can agree that some of the newcomers in the European Union in the buzz that he has not performed quite well but thats up to these countries you cannot judge north must vania together with 510. 00 other countries including our direct neighbors just judge us as a set on our individual achievements and thats all we are asking for mr president feel that North Macedonia is not getting a fair shake by the us is that is the feeling among our people and we think that that should be amended somehow in the months to come because we have been promised the north must and will been on the last e. U. Summit in sofia as a clear sentence in the final communique from that summit saying that north and albany are going to get that from the opening negotiations in june 2000 we are again postponed was good to know all of that that that is only a technical postponement but believe me i have difficulties and many other people around the big now currently in power in skopje to explain to the come the people that it is really only a technical to split. If you dont get the green wire october what with that mean for your government from at long island undermining studios on the money of the twentys up in forces or your old files are going to be put in the corner im not speaking of old who is going to be the winner of the next Parliament Elections im a devoted beginning of my term as the president of the company so i can put aside that political ambitions at least for a while but its very important for the region as a whole is if you like finally brussels to send a positive signal to the whole division because whenever each country of the west will complete illusion being for so long sidelined by europeans and getting a positive message thats a good positive message for the region as a whole so what we are waiting for is give us the chess to prove ourselves to do so very long and as thin as possible europeanization we are not esque in october for the full fledged membership we asking for the factions to start that very long process i said and thats not too much i think to ask from the europeans in conclusion mr president now it just so happens that in october that date coincides with the United Kingdom scheduling schedule is to leave the e. U. London has been of course an ally when it comes to a large amount of the European Union how much has them leaving the bloc hurt your bid we would like to see you staying huge opinion if you like if you ask me and the people around me and the old people in most of them there because we know that it has been one of the most dynamic power behind the little bit behind european integration but even then leaving i think that we still have enough of you to files in brussels including the people from the complete political elite in germany so we still contemn them and we know that donald an awful lot of the regional bestival thats as i thank you so much for joining us president of North Macedonia. Governments in europe are warning their citizens to take precautions as a record heat wave starts moving across the continent the temperatures are forecast to exceed 40 degrees celsius in several countries including germany france and spain. During. The transfer these were the. Issues you. Can see. How i think that weather is much harder than when i expect because i felt in europe the weather may be nicer than this is too hot for me actually to baghdad its really unpleasant but were used to it unlike other people so we are not preparing specifically but you have to make sure you stay hydrated through the. Hot winds from the harra a turning up temperatures across europe in france so far it is a warning people about the intense heat. To put is all for also set for yourself should drink limit physical activity or even keep a body where or to cover them well and protect them from the sun with hats is all sunglasses and a long sleeved shirts yes. Do not leave them in the car even for a very short time of which. Its important to remember this. The heat wave in france in 2003 years thought to have killed 15000 people this time the country is better prepared. Other European Countries are issuing warnings as well germany is expecting record breaking high on wednesday and children the only ones at risk. For im given parts and its also older people with preexisting Health Problems with their kidneys problems with hydration problems with their hearts and when theres a heat wave and they dont drink enough they get even bigger problems the more they can also get dizzy and fall into. Drink drink drink you can can. Water internally or externally its the bomb against europes coming heat. And. Our doubts are with the worker rising in europe what are we to make of this weather well lets ask a weatherman meteorologist Alexander Hildebrand from the German Weather Service thats our dot com is with us alex good to see you say a spanish meteorologist has tweeted the following how is coming is it really going to be that dramatic well it feels like hell when youre outside when its 40 degrees celsius and those are the temperatures we are expecting in large parts of europe and south and germany we will have 39 or 48 in on wednesday in france were looking into temperatures are 4344 in southern areas already today and tomorrow and there are other countries sweating also for example Eastern Europe will have 3637 percent thats for sure and that is due to. Heat that is coming our way well lets talk about it because its only june. Europe is already sizzling how normal is this fit in the pattern the weather pattern that you usually observe normally we would expect these kind of heat waves more in july and august and so its very unusual that this is all early or korea now at the end of june but the the weather pattern is caused by a low pressure system west of spain and that is really pushing the heat into our direction and this is also connected to other global events that are building up now along as strong long stretches or certain stretches certain movements of air and the higher atmosphere above the above the atlantic so that is the reason why this he just coming towards away what do these extreme temperatures that were going through right now tell us about Global Warming are they related should we start getting prepared for more of these in the future unfortunately i must say yes this is this is already a sign of Global Warming if this continues june 2970. 00 will be the hottest on record but although this is also true for other countries like in france or spain and this is a development we have seen in the last maybe 6 or 7 years the month of june has continuously getting warmer and warmer only by a few degrees but this is a trend that much has continued in the last decades and most probably will continue if the Global Warming continues in the way the climate to models forecast what do you do to beat the heat well i of course i try to stay indoors when its around noon and in the afternoons actually my office is also very cool which is nice but i try to avoid sports i do ride my bikes through the city also when its hot but i shouldnt and i feel really often very bad about afterwards so and i also try to get a good nights sleep which is difficult when the heat is so strong so i would advise everyone to keep the apartment as dark as possible during the day so that. That there is some rest at nights because the knights will be have Tropical Temperatures in large parts of europe in the coming days and hydrate hydrate hydrate drink a lot of water meteorologists Alexander Hildebrandt from the German Weather Service thats our dot com thank you thank you. To the womens world cup in france now where their favorite the United States just barely made it through to the quarterfinals with a somewhat controversial win over spain the u. S. Seemed to be cruising to a 4th street easy win thanks to an early penalty but a mistake on the fence led to a spectacular shot by space jenny and also to tie the match when late in the 2nd half a questionable penalty against the spanish side was upheld by the video every and u. S. Advantage he secured a victory to. Spill. Yannick spite from d. W. Sports is here with me to talk about this yanik a much tougher side and match for the u. S. They breezed through the group stage but that was no easy game no that was much tougher as you just mentioned they scored 18 unanswered goals in the group stages but against spain they came up against a different base and they provided the u. S. As rivals with a reason for hope they really found some chinks yama it was not a confident home and said all defensive errors of course and not a comfortable when too many of their best players were off pace and i think that falls on the coach jill alice i dont think she provided a viable game plan for the us to win the match will get through spain and she didnt come up with a plan and then as we say here i had to rely on a fairly contentious penalty to get the win and that doesnt really scream world cup champions does it so i think again the coachella she has some some questions to answer she started an unfit player now its more than leaving cali lloyd on the bench as well as others she didnt. Act reactively to to to change the match when she could of so now they are up against their next match is off against france team france what do they need to change to really make a chance of winning that game yes a france is a is a different base again to spain that easily a better team than spain and they will punish the us if they dont shop an op i think thats as i mentioned needs to one pick the right person no but she also needs to be more reactive rather than passive friends will punish us and she will have to make substitutions of the right thoms when the us needs them but at the end of the day. It is the best team in the world it is and these players are the ones that will walk li change this match i think that they can almost play the game themselves that are good and we saw some fighting words from Megan Rapinoe reckoning rip a no off the match in his she just lets have a listen to what she had to say thats cruel problem a bridge right there you just you cant replicate it theres no way to express it or teach it there is a few of us out in the field though kind of like half way through the 2nd half or like at the level we need to go up a level not only here but just to temple and i mean youre a little bit so far as i can tell that they only get harder more intense and here are great playing for their lives so thats the best part about honestly i love it this is the 1st date. So yeah Megan Rapinoe even though she didnt have the best and she still scored 2 goals and you see the confidence of these players they know they can do better and i think the lift their game against france its the team to beat all these years now we had to knock out stay and knock out matches excuse me yesterday who else went to the choir i guess the other match was sweden against canada. Also very tough team very strong defensively but they also have the attackers to get the job done and we have some highlights here to show you as well and with the open no was scored with no one of a combination between cause of a slimy and. Stina less than us and here the goal here lovely pass from a slightly through to blacks and us and a beautiful finish and thats how finished it was one nil the end sweden a well deserved win but i did have a scare light in the 2nd half a penalty awarded for hempel but fortunately the keeper had a clean how managed untasted say and thats where sweden a strong offense really pulls you over the top teams problems theyre coming up against germany next and i think germany will have to be at the top of their game to get through that defense through that defense and through that goalkeeper our best lines in the tournament now there are still 2 round of 16 matches whats coming up tonight yes its not we have its lee who are a bit of surprise package they took the group which not many people expected them to and theyre coming up against china who used to be one of the powerhouses of womens football and then the other match another interesting match up the netherlands who are looking very strong the defending european champions and count them as one of the favorites for the storm and theyre coming up against japan so too pretty in throwing matches its looking forward looking forward to the great want of football ahead of us amazing amazing great stuff for you to start from the sports greatly appreciate it. And staying with football your great have top group c. In the mens cup america after defeating chile one meal a both sides created opportunities in the contest but it took until the 82nd minute to break through as the knack of n. A. S.
