Just like the previous ones out is reversible our work will be conducted under the supervision of the International AtomicEnergy Agency or you do some on that on monday rainy day officials also announce that they had doubled the number of advanced centrifuges because the country has it all comes as a wrong suffers under u. S. Sanctions while 2 rounds as its also losing patience and can no longer wait for europe to come to its aid and boost trade germanys foreign minister says the whole agreement is now in jeopardy. We said this is unacceptable alternately iran is doing nothing less than putting the entire Nuclear Agreement at risk and that is why we expect iran to return to full compliance with its obligations. Now the Iran Nuclear Deal was signed back in 2015 it took 9 years of painstaking talks to secure russia china the u. K. Germany france and the u. S. Were all signatories under his terms sanctions by the International Community were to be lifted in exchange for to iran freezing its Nuclear Program it was hailed as a landmark agreement ending more than a decade of strife with iran but in may last year the u. S. Unilaterally pulled out of the agreement despite criticism from european allies describe the deal as flawed and subsequently in re imposed sanctions on iran well since then the other signatories have been struggling to keep the spirit of the deal alive but politics professor side Mohammad Marandi believes European Countries should be doing more well the problem is not just the United States is the europeans because contrary to what the german official said it is the iranians who been abiding by the nuclear deal for just over a year and a half now whereas the europeans have been in complete violation americans toward agreements and no child has been putting pressure on the european europeans so they are effectively pursuing the same policy as the United States unless the europeans. Grow a backbone and unless they abide by their obligations the iranians have no other option but to gradually agreement and so far we dont see the europeans growing the backbone image but good for them internationally because the International Community sees the europeans as ineffective and basically subordinate to the United States.

Political correctness has been propelled to center stage at theatres in londons west end they say their phasing out phrases like ladies and gentlemen and seeking gender neutral expressions to replace them has its arlie. Ladies and gentlemen the show is about to stop please make your way to youll see us the usual queue for punches of the westons famously it says here in london but its a saying that might be making a hasty exit they could see the actors and entertainers trade union has released guidelines encouraging theater is. Ladies and gentleman and use gender neutral terminology for collective calls both front of house and back stage so avoid alienating people who identify as nonbinary so neither male nor female some venues like the apollo have already dropped the phrase opting instead for good evening or welcome stressing that they want everyone to feel welcome while londons transport network has already made the change from ladies and gentlemen to phrases such as good evening everyone who want to see its a guy was think about these changes if they didnt announce why they were doing it i probably wouldnt notice so suppose its far enough although i quite like that his judgement to be honest should be on nothing give us taking a fork you fall seriously you say. Stuff through the us think maybe older generations might you know think its a bit controversial but you know what i mean maybe upset because theyre used to the tradition i mean if people that tended by that time right thing isnt. Either a lady or a gentleman either or and to me thats ridiculous to see both sides up and if it does change then i feel like it wouldnt be bad but at the same time if it doesnt change i think youd have to respect that people should say ladies and gentlemen you cant list all all the gender has exactly its only a meeting and its national the guidance released by equity follows on from a motion passed by Student Union representatives last month at Oxford University the motion encourages the phasing out of capping to be replaced by a more side of the pools.
