deal is not reached. rouhani says it will enrich uranium to any amount we want if there is no nuclear deal. be careful with the threats, iran. they can come back to bite you like nobody has bitten before. joining us now is nile gardiner, director of the martha thatcher center for freedom. thank you for joining us. i want to read to you following up on what the president was tweeting there what iran president rouhani said in his cabinet meeting yesterday. it reads our advice to europe and the united states is to go back to logic and to the negotiating table. go back to understanding, to respecting the law and resolutions of the u.n. security council. under those conditions all of us can abide by the nuclear deal. now, we have that and then just yesterday on special report representative michael mccaul said this. take a listen. i must say the president exercised great caution in
trying to de-escalate this conflict, not escalate it. one thing he made clear in the room was that he will not stand for a nuclear iran. and that is his red line. if iran chooses to cross that red line and get nuclear weapons, he will respond in full force. alicia: respond in full force. exactly how do you see that? well, firstly i would say that iran is resorting to blackmail here and let s not forget we are dealing with one of the most barbaric regimes on the face of the earth. they re hell bent on developing a nuclear weapons program. it is not interested in abiding by the iran nuclear deal and why the united states withdrew from this disastrous agreement. and president trump is sending exactly the right message to the iranian regime that the united states and the free world will stand up to evil and the u.s. is applying a policy of maximum pressure against

completely the wrong signal. and so we need to see a change in this very weak-kneed approach. they need to stand together with the u.s. and confront an extremely grave threat that the entire free world is facing today. alicia: quickly i just wanted to hit on north korea. we don t have a lot of time here, reuters is reporting that north korea s mission to the u.n. is accusing the united states of being hell bent on hostile acts despite saying that they want to talk. we know the secretary of state mike pompeo has said this meeting that happened on sunday has opened up possible talks for denuclearization. where are we on this? a further illustration of the fact that the north korean regime cannot be trusted at all and this is a further reason why the united states needs to maintain this approach of maximum pressure against north korea. we need to see the full
the drones will let them monitor crowds and feed the video to cell phones and command centers and using sensors to monitor for other drones that shouldn t be flying. they were able to lock down the area of time square for new year s eve. they are tracking home grown terrorists within the united states believed to be inspired by terrorist organizations. the joint tearism task force says they re on top of this event and people should have no worries enjoying it. we work through the joint terrorist task force and all federal partners. we re running down leads and calls from the public as well as investigations that have taken us from overseas back here to new york and those are fully vetted each and every day.
