Move to move the only ones who were say. Only 4 of us was safe but. Also coming up tonight an exclusive one on one interview with the new president of ukraine blow to me as a lidsky hes bound to stand up to russia do western leaders have his back. All of them told me that we have their full support still look at this much money and give it a option to use the system i really hope that Going Forward well see real deeds and not just words of support for ukraine but. What else can we do. To our viewers on p. B. S. In the United States and all around the world welcome but we begin the day with the migrants and the missiles aimed at them and the boats that may or may not rest. You them more than 50 people are confirmed dead following wednesdays airstrike on a Migrant Detention Center outside the libyan capital tripoli the Libyan Government today accused the United Arab Emirates of using a u. S. Made fighter jet to attack the Migrant Center there has been no response from the u. A. E. And a disturbing report about what happened on the ground immediately following that attack the u. N. Says it has information that libyan guards shot at the migrants as they tried to flee the bombing and for the migrants who do manage to leave libya it is a life or death gamble trying to cross the mediterranean and the question will europe take them in today mole to agreed to take in 55 migrants who were rescued off the libyan coast in return italy will take 55 other migrants who are currently sheltering in malta the swap defuses a standoff between the Charity Michel rania and italys interior minister made it to ranias boat picked up migrants at sea and wanted to dock in italy but the government in rome said no. The Italian Government wants other European Countries to take more migrants and it has closed its ports to some ships the italian island of lampedusa due to its geography is the poorest where many migrants are brought ashore our correspondence i mean as if is there. Another week another standoff near the lampedusa port last week the german n. G. O. S c. Watch entered this port by force in order to deliver rescued migrants to safe harbor the Italian Government refused saying that they should turn around and head back to africa today that story played out again this time with an italian angio called meditate on a their sailboat spent the entire blistering hot day rocking in the waves 12 miles out to sea italy has blocked them from entering the port here sending out its coast guard in the afternoon to pick up only the women children and passengers who had become sick luckily the maltese government offered to take the migrants in but malta is 500 kilometers here and they dont know how theyre going to make the trip the rescue ships say that european politics is responsible for many deaths out here as the standard procedure for rescuing people at sea has become a struggle between italy and the rest of the e. U. Italy on the other hand says the ngos are also playing politics going down to libyan waters where many migrants start the journey and bring them to italys shores lampedusa as mayor told me it has been this way for years and without a european solution it will continue on there was our correspondent in essence theyre reporting from the island of lampedusa well even if migrants are rescued in the mediterranean there is no guarantee that they will be brought to europe in a deal with financed by the European Union the libyan coast guard has agreed to pick up migrants and to bring them to Detention Centers in libya or one of those Detention Centers was hit in an airstrike this week 53 people died the government of libya is now considering shutting down all Migrant Detention Centers. This was from the support the bombing was carried out by an f. 16 aircraft our government does not have the capacity to stop the f. 16 this prevent them from bombing the libyan airspace. So were sending a message that because we are obliged to protect Illegal Immigrants it is our duty to release them so they will not be in camps so they cannot be bombed again. Our thats what the Libyan Government says lets take this now to. She is the head of the u. N. Agency libya unit she joins us from the tunisian capital tunis tonight its good to have you back on the show can you confirm reports for us tonight that the Libyan Government is planning to shut down the countrys centers. A. Well we have seen that theyre considering it which we welcome where were very very grateful about the fact that this is being considered this is something that you any t. R. Has been advocating for for years. Position is that no refugees should be detained refugees are coming from countries and there are you doing a very long journey under the desert under the sun and smugglers theyve been tortured theyve been abused theyre looking for safety and once they try to cross the sea theyve been systematically detained so we do hope and were ready here to Work Together to actually make this detention policy and and actually ensure that they have International Oh i want to ask you about a report that came out today the United Nations says that it has information about libyan guards shooting margarets who were trying to flee that airstrike this week in libya what have you been told. We were at that shoot at the sent the Tension Center the day after the attack happened we spoke to the refugees and to the migrants who were there they were shocked they were they were state of shock they were sad and they had seen their their friends being sharing with them the sense for months if not years they had seen them die in front of their eyes they never told us such a council this is something that i cannot confirm are the guards there the libyan guards the Detention Centers are they a threat or they a danger to the mine. Well the real danger is that actually because a lot of Attention Center as many other Detention Centers are in an area in fact its conflict so that is our main concern at the moment 3800 refugees and migrants still remain as of now in areas of active conflict so we do have to close Attention Centers or relocate them to see. Safer places and find solutions this way with made a very active and continuous call to the International Community asking them to please help us help the refugees and find a safer place and where you know that the European Union in libya theyve agreed to rescue migrants in the mediterranean and to return them to these Migrant Centers in libya of course that assumes that libya is a safe place to return migrants to is libya a safe place. He has not a safe place for refugees it has it hasnt been for a long time its a country that has more in them 600000 internally displaced living in themselves are suffering extreme heat from the Current Crisis from the conflict. Definitely not a phase where reduced confined International Protection so they should not be returned back to that yes they should find safety and where and where would that be from you from your perspective from your Vantage Point where would you like to see these migrants be housed. Insite leave yeah we have more than 56000 refugees who are now taking who are living in the urban context who are suffering immensely as well from the current conflict without access to education to health care being at houses that are unsafe and but its possible to have them living in the community we do have a risk at the Moment Program for the most about iraq and other ways they should be fine and i can see that actually provides them International Protection where they can be safe they have suffered enough and they should find a place where they can rebuild their lives and they can have a future. How about you know. If the u. N. Agency or as the libya units probably as always we appreciate you talking with us thank you very much. Thank you so much thank you. It appears that britain is now locked inside that geo political Pressure Cooker known as iranian u. S. Relations today iran threatened to seize a British Oil Tanker in retaliation for the seizure of an iranian tanker yesterday British Royal marines aboard the vessel yesterday reportedly carrying out a request from the United States its believed the tanker was carrying fuel instead of crude oil and its believed that the load was headed for syria all of that of violation of European Union saying on. For more now im joined by ali he is director of the iran project at crisis group he was one of the consultants to governments when the Iran Nuclear Deal was being negotiated he is a scientist and has written extensively on iran and the middle east its good to have you on the show tonight here in washington d. C. Our studio i should say i want to ask you about this tanker story that was seized by British Forces for allegedly violating e. U. Sanctions against syria what do you think is really going on here is this about syria or does this have more to do with iran doing what it has to do to get around u. S. Sanctions. Look the reality is at least from the iranian perspective this is a distinction without difference meaning that 40 iranians it really doesnt matter if the tanker was seized because of. Syria sanctions they actually see it as facilitating u. S. Sanctions on iranian oil which has driven down iran or the exports from 3000000. 00 bottles a day about a year ago to around 110th of that which is 300000 barrels today and they run eons expected the remaining parties through the 2015 nuclear deal which includes britain to actually help iran survive u. S. Sanctions and not to facilitate them and then forcing them by seizing this tankers and this is definitely going to add to tensions between iran and europe. The iranian president rouhani has warned that iran will increase your aenima richmond levels and restore the countrys heavy water reactor by this coming sunday july the 7th do you think that it will follow through on that promise that threat. It looks increasingly likely that it will follow to true but with those threats because in some ways you know this has become a one day one way deal for day iranians meaning that they have restricted their Nuclear Program and subject to International Monitoring the most rigorous ever implemented anywhere but theyre really not getting the benefits of the deal and so by you know incrementally rolling back their commitments. Under the nuclear deal their objective is to put more pressure on the remaining parties to the deal to throw them an economic lifeline and also to deter the us from further rationing of pressure of sanctions and iran has done that its pressured europe to find a way to help it withstand these new u. S. Sanctions europe announced this week its got this trade mechanism known as instax that is up and running and its working but iran doesnt seem impressed and iran knows that europe cannot shield it completely from u. S. Sanctions so do you know why it is pressuring europe to do something that europe cannot. Well you know the problem is that the europeans over promised then under delivered if you look at the statement that came out of the European Union immediately after President Trump withdrew from the nuclear deal last year its repeats with promises of power the europeans without the iranian economy and out of all of those promises the only thing that has materialized that the special Purpose Vehicle is banking channel that is suppose opposed to help iran with humanitarian trade with europe but even that has not become fully functional yet and so they run as they are extremely a prostrated and this either a seizure of the tanker i think is probably the last straw and most likely going to incentivize them to continue ratcheting up the pressure by by further rolling back their commitments under the nuclear deal before we run out of time i want to ask you what do you think happens next i mean do you agree that we are in a place now where even a small incident or small accident could trigger a military conflict. Look with this kind of brinksmanship on both sides and this level of tensions and friction and no channels of communication between the main actors meaning the United States and while on the one hand that iran on the other there is plenty of space for miscalculation and the reality is that the trunk administration has created a climate that is right for inadvertent conflict ok and on the violence the iran Program Director at crisis group joining us tonight from washington ali we appreciate your time and your insights have a good weekend thank you. Well he promised a show of a life time but Mother Nature left us president Donald TrumpsIndependence Day celebration rather with the 4th of july marks americas independence from british rule and is usually a day focused on National Unity not partisan politics trumps sidestepped that tradition by using the parade in his speech at the Lincoln Memorial to praise the u. S. Military however trump stayed on script he did not use his beach to rally his base or to highlight the countrys deep and wide political divide. And there are going to be here the big table is a familiar face to our viewers. An Institute Germany times its good to see you what did do the 4th of july did he call his critics bluff vice staying on script and i think the feeling is what did he not do and he never ceases to surprise people in this case he surprised everybody by holding a speech where he stuck to script and his message was over although looking backward looking into the past and although a little bit militarized a message of unity you know he was always talking about americans and that the this is great history of that the United States has and if there was a political message in the speech it was that we are better now than ever before and our greatest days are to come he was trying to chart an arc moving forward that an arc of octave is but thats unique for him because this is a president who has governed by division and it was a speech and with a message of unity so that was surprising there werent a lot of people there i mean the weather was not good so the crowds were not that great do you think that. This entire event salute to america was overhyped in the run up to it and you know a year from now were not even going to remember the speech well im. I dont think it was a memorable speech you know there has been a lot of critique of the quality of the writing and of course the facts in the speech itself you know there was a mention of a airport attacks in 776 which clearly we did when we didnt have airports we didnt have air force is no one told the Wright Brothers about the raids actually that is which happened you know 120 years later but. He was not a memorable speech and that in of itself for this president is somewhat of a remarkable event and i think that because trump is so unpredictable the there was no it was a fear that this was going to be used for partisan political purposes so those who did come tended to be members of his base and given the weather and given the situation people preferred to spend it in their hometowns with tracker polls fireworks and barbecues rather than coming to a political rally thats a good good point it is july and im in the middle of this month were going to hear from Robert Muller hes supposed to testify to 2 congressional committees so its going to be a hot summer for the u. S. President and there is there are some signs of fracturing even among his republicans want you to listen to the one republican who exit in the Republican Party this week think of this. Was helping to set an example for people ive been involved in Party Politics for a while and i believe very strongly that its hurting hurting our country at this point and i think people need to stand up for whats right stand up for what they believe in and. Be independent of these Party Loyalties that really divide. Ok and then the president reacted to that by tweeting this great news for the Republican Party as one of the dumbest and most disloyal men in congress is quitting the party no collusion no obstruction knew he couldnt get the nomination to run again in the great state of michigan already the challenge for his seat a total loser. Thats typical trump but. You know this is a republican abandoning ship yeah but he. We have to say hes not a typical republican he was just a macho is really a libertarian hes kind of a millennial rand paul if you will there is speculation that hes going to seek the libertarian president ial nomination and lets be honest he has been consistent for the past 8 years that hes been in congress challenging the republicans challenging people like john boehner basically getting stripped of all this Committee Assignments because he was always a thorn of the side of the party because he does keep to that consistent limited government government why he is the one republican or former republican now who who said that the mold report presents evidence that would justify starting impeachment proceedings right and he was essentially lets call a spade a spade drummed out of the party i mean its not necessarily that he left of his own accord he was frozen out of the party which demonstrates a couple things theres no place for a republican like justin amash in the party and the rest of the party is really circling the wagons around trump we see the transformation which weve seen for the past couple of years of the Republican Party into the party of trump you know thats a very good point to make because i think its july 15th is when Robert Mueller is going to testify we will see then what the republican reaction is to that workers always good to have your insights have a good weekend so thank you. In one corner of Eastern Ukraine hopes are rising that the conflict between russian backed separatists and Government Forces that it could be easing the fighting has claimed more than 10000 lives and millions have been forced to leave their homes where shooting continues in the region but events in one small town are raising hopes that peace could be within reach in study the ukrainian and separatist forces have withdrawn from their front line positions now the step could ease tensions at a vital crossing point between government and separatist held territory more than 10000 civilians crossed this point every day. Correspondent Nick Connelly he was in the town for the visit by the ukrainian president and he spoke with president. Taking down the front line defenses block by block. Where previously the soldiers on both sides could practically look each other in the eye now theyll be several kilometers apart the symbolism couldnt be any clearer and its being met with great enthusiasm by many of the thousands civilians who cross the front line its the need to look every day in his inauguration speech president selenski said that ending the killing dont bus would be his priority is president but he needs results and he needs them fast at a parliamentary elections later this month but for all the obvious successes on the ground its needs this remains an isolated piece of good news even today residents of the town woke up to heavy artillery fire in the distance i began by asking president selenski what his next steps towards bring peace to dont bust we can get a clinician. The next step will be further talks in man schools teach us as part of the Trilateral Contact Group to agree on dismantling the concrete defenses in place on both sides. At the last meeting our side was ready to take everything down in a space of a day it will settle we need everything we could to make that happen if. The other side told us they need 8 or 10 days to do the same. We are waiting for a signal from their side sistani will see so it can happen simultaneously deploy social scene and the next question we will address i hope will be an exchange of prisoners of war i mean you. Could you have. You say you want to engage with the ukrainians living in separatist how territories should we go. To church. We need to talk to them all the time and we are already doing that until we are sending signals to them were telling them that we are all ukrainians we are all the same people we are prepared to do everything required by the mens agreement you know very well that neither i nor my team signed the mens greenspan were prepared to follow all the step. Needed to implement the agreements in order to finally achieve peace and yes most believe you should but can you really breach the peace know that when you think. Its a difficult question i think many of them are listening to us. I believe in that or at least i really want to believe in that in that we will do as much as we can to reach them as long as it takes. No prisoners on the street or does europe still support ukraine over the. Ive spoken to germanys chancellor and the american and the manual called france and just recently with the canadian Prime Minister just introduced me to me all of them told me that we have their full support. Which is useful since that i really hope that Going Forward well see real deeds and not just words of support for ukraine. What else can we do. If we want to end this war by diplomatic means which which we really want to do or we have no other options. I hope that the other side will not undermine the measures that weve already agreed to. We have agreed to the 1st meeting after a long period of silence. Will be in the normandy format to lie the 12th.
