U. S. President donald trump is expected to reluctantly extend sanctions relief to iran late on friday under the new kid deal with world powers the agreement that trumps described as the worst ever was the result of more than a decade of diplomatic efforts to curtail Irans Nuclear ambitions in two thousand and two a secret uranium enrichment facility was discovered in eastern iran prompting britain france and germany to begin talks with iranian negotiators a year later in two thousand and six the us russia and china joined the talks forming the socalled p five plus one group things took a bad turn six years later when it was revealed that iran was enriching uranium close to weapons grade levels the e. U. Imposed asset freezes on iran central. Bank and stopped importing the countrys oil then asked irani defeated conservative opponents to become irans president he declared his country was ready for Serious Nuclear talks and after years of negotiations a long term Nuclear Agreement was reached in june of twenty fifteen but the u. S. Congress stipulates it needs to be reaffirmed every ninety days so while trump is expected to sign off on the sanction waivers under that deal he may impose separates us sanctions ellen fish explains from washington d. C. Well we know the donald trump has been meeting is National Security team and dont leave the hall around deal is probably on the agenda we know that in the past Rex Tillerson who is the secretary of state h. R. Mcmaster whos the National Security advisor and to matters who is the fence secretary they have been suggesting that they dont want to step this deal they dont want to blow it up what the United States should do is to with to try and the men that were working with the International Partners but there is the possibility that will be no one Nuclear Related sanctions and thats certainly something that treasury sector steve suggested when he made a surprise appearance in the White House Briefing room. I am expecting new sanctions on iran we continue to look at them weve rolled them out and i think. You can expect there will be more sanctions coming now we know that donald trump speaks to a lot of people before he makes these decisions he has had from president mark or friends who said the International Community doesnt want to see this deal being abandoned sources for through the release of the saudis and we know that donald trump tends to see these things very much in binary terms that any win for a run in any sort of level is a defeat for the United States but what people will be saying to particularly after the protests in iran over the last month is what we want to do is keep pressure on the iranian government and you do that with non Nuclear Related sanctions rather than dismantling this whole deal if you do that and it keeps pressure on the iranian government and but if you blow up the deal then that gives them some sort of nationalistic totem to rally people around and the focus moves off them and more on the relationship with the United States and the International Community and that could strengthen their position so donald trump has a big decision to make in the next twenty four hours he will listen to all sides and then donald trump being donald trump will make the decision he wants to make when hes ready to make the decision i mean president tom has confirmed that hes cancelled his state visit to london there were calls from some politicians for his invitation to be withdrawn and opponents are planning protests if the visit went ahead but on twitter chum put it down to his objections to americas new embassy in london reason i canceled my trip to london is that im not a big fan of the a bomb administration having sold perhaps the best located in finest embassy in london for peanuts only to build a new one in an off location for one point two billion dollars bad deal wanted me to cut ribbon no. Theres been significant progress in talks between german chancellor Angela Merkels party and its main rivals politicians say they have agreed on a blueprint which paves the way for the next stage of talks on forming a grand coalition Merkels Christian Democratic Union party and the center left social democrats as spend five days finding Common Ground germany has been without a full government since septembers elections David Chaytor is in berlin david what do we know about this progress. Jane the political limbo does appear to be over for the moment there is an agreement that formal Coalition Talks will now take place and there is of course the problem of exactly what the comprehensive statement will see today does contain because there are crucial issues hurdles as called by anger merkel that they were discussing and those discussions went on throughout the night so clearly theyve got to form some sort of statement which will allow the social democrats leader Martin Schulz to try and sell this deal at a special delegates conference on january twenty first and that itself could be a problem thats the final hurdle so yes this is as you said some form of a breakthrough but martin children the socialists have yet to decide and put it to their delegates and only then after they get agreement on january twenty first if they do get agreement will be the formal talks take place which means that any coalition grand Coalition Government will not actually be in office probably until april but it does appear from whats coming out and theyre only dribs and drabs coming out on the wires at the moment that there is a grand coalition perhaps but with no grand visual ideas for the future of germany no real policies as yet that we can talk to about the the future direction that germany is taking so it just appears that theyre coming to some face saving formula and that that is the way they hope to get through to forming a government sometime in april jane and what sort of impact is this likely to have on refugees obviously refute the very fiji numbers has been a large part of this they are reports now of a new cap on numbers has that going to work. Jane yes this is in fact one of the most crucial divides between the socialist democrats and anger merkels parties and her sister party in the various be moving very much towards the rights moving away from the center on this particular issue now what they want to do was look at the issue of the one point two million refugees who came here in twenty fifteen twenty sixteen are they going to be allowed Family Reunions now this is being very much opposed by the the center parties they feel that this really needs to be looked at very carefully so theyve decided that that issue of Family Reunion so vital for those refugees who found asylum in germany they need to see their loved ones in need to see husbands and wives together Children Reunited with their parents its a very crucial issue theyll be examining one thousand cases. Each each month to look at that saw we dont quite have the details but one thousand cases per month to see if there are going to be allowed to be reunited as for migration thats a separate issue of course theres going to be a cap on that between one hundred eighty thousand to two hundred twenty thousand cases will be looked at joining the course of a year so that is the bare bones of the agreement as i say at the moment this is still got to be put to Martin Schultz says delegate conference and the the young socialists are very much against this whole idea of entering government very vocal in their protests against whats being done they believe they should get new leadership in the party they believe also that new ideals should be put to germany a new vision to reinvigorate the socialist cause there are still problems ahead thank you david chester. Demonstrators in tunisia burned on a security base near the algerian border it follows days of violent protests against planned price and tax hikes the government has deployed troops across the country more than seven hundred seventy people have been arrested since the unrest began on sunday the protests have now are spread to several cities joins us now from tunis does this mean that the protests are gaining momentum hashan indeed jane although we dont we dont see the use rallies that weve been seeing in the past particular thousand and twelve thirteen and fourteen and fifteen but at least with seeing now this momentum which is building up across the country people saying they are fed up with corruption and impunity in the country and that therefore there needs to be action so they want to maintain the momentum and put more pressure on the government in few hours from now what are we waiting for which is one of those buys in movements now in tunisia is trying to gather support for a rally in the capital tunis have they say that they will continue to go on through the coming days particularly sunday which commemorates the seventh anniversary of the two thousand and eleven revolution they would like to take the opportunity to continue to call for this government to scrap the austerity measures but also to hold accountable everyone responsible for embezzling public funds this is where the biggest problem it is here is not that it is a poor country but the biggest problem is the need to tackle corruption and what can the government do now to ease tension. I have to say very few choices here jane for the government the three main sectors that generate revenue for the tunisian government are mining ugly culture and tourism and these three sectors have been hit hard over the last few years because of instability terrorist attacks and also decline in International Markets so therefore the government is desperate for cash they go to International Donors like the International Monetary fund and they tell them if you want us to give you money you have to tackle the problem of the bloated Public Sector just to give you an idea jane the Public Sector in tinnies the walk force in tunisia consumes Something Like twelve percent of the g. D. P. And the government to tackle the bloated Public Sector they say that they would like to slash the workforce by twenty thousand and increase taxes if you do that people would get upset and they will go on the streets so the government now walks a very tight political tightrope they would like to cut the Public Sector increase taxes to be able to generate cash for the coming months without upsetting the people their trade unions the opposition say that the austerity measures are a red line and therefore they say that they will continue the pressure there will continue the rallies across the country until the government scraps this the problem in a country like tim is yes if instability continues of people take to the streets if we see acts of violence like what weve seen over the last few days this is just something which is going to further destabilize a country that has been hit by many years of instability and growing influence of armed groups across the country are tashan thank you.
