Iran accuses britain of being a servant of the United States as it demands a return of a seized on oil tanker and the u. K. Is considering boosting its military presence after a Close Encounter in the gulf with tensions rising by the day whats the likelihood of a conflict this is inside story. Hello and welcome to the program im Martin Dennis now the United States the u. K. And iran they all agree on one thing they dont want war but the situation is becoming dangerous as the u. S. Turns the screw further on irans already faltering economy and britain finds itself in an awkward position on the one hand its working with europe to try to save the 2015 Iran Nuclear Deal which the u. S. Has abandoned on the other britain needs to maintain close ties with washington as it seeks to leave the European Union its been suggested that the seizure of the rainy and oil tanker off gibraltar last week was done at the behest of the United States and thats infuriated iran with the foreign minister demanding britain return the ship or face what he called consequences. European union sanctions are meant to stop europe from buying syrias oil not about another country selling oil to syria so this is a very childish with dickless excuse why the british they should officially say west servants of america and act on behalf of America America has returned the paper by insulting their ambassador and the Prime Minister but gibraltars chief minister says there was no foreign interference. Its all rather decisions in respect of this matter what taken as a direct result only of the government of gibraltar have a reasonable grounds to believe that the vessel was acting in breach of established sanctions against syria there has been no political requested any time from any government but the travolta government should act on not act on one basis or another so we have to remember of course a gibraltar is a british territory and theres been incremental ratcheting up of tension within the past week in the gulf British Royal marines seize that Iranian Oil Tanker off the coast of gibraltar as weve mentioned because of the suspicion of it violating sanctions against syria a former commander of irans revolutionary guard suggested a british vessel should be taken in retaliation on tuesday the u. K. Raised the threat to british shipping in the gulf to its highest level and the following day a u. K. Warship says it stopped Iranian Military boats from impeding a british or tanker in the strait of hormuz iran though denies this incident ever happened its. Time to introduce our guest now on skype in london we have a nice a best siri to breezy who is Research Fellow at russi thats the role United Services institute in tehran we have Mohammad Marandi head of American Studies Department at the university of tehran also in london we have Phil Dyer Cohen hes managing director of dryad global thats a Maritime Security Risk Management Company Welcome to you warm phil can i start with you and just ask you to give us a very general. Assessment of what the Maritime Security situation in the gulf currently is with we understand a british the british sending another warship to the region and ratcheting up its security alert level. So the increase in the security level that was announced yesterday for british interest vessels is is as you say the highest level security that can be applied to a vessel what affectively means is that you are stripping the movement of personal on the vessel and on and off the vessel also along with the industry best management practice thats the b. M. P. 5 along with that with which might imply physical security measures what youre doing is youre providing the the Biggest Barriers to boarding allowing people to interfere with your vessel but in essence thats as far as it goes so in terms of the security raised in the area and the british ability to influence that what we had to go on on tuesday was effectively what the iranians have been doing for quite some time now and we have to put this into context our clients have been reporting this of activity for many years now where the iranian guard operating their vessels will try and steer vessels away from their course and 20 courage them into areas where they have more direct influence i reign in total waters where they can perhaps take steps further and pursue their own agenda what would that be i mean whats your understanding from what youre hearing from your clients your customers in the region what is the objective what are the these arabians seeking to achieve so that her recent activity that we talked with that weve seen here and this the allegedly to place 2 days ago with the british vessel now remember the british vessel the thing to know that is that it might be under a red n sign which comes under the sort of british flags of convenience but actually that vessel has many interested parties in it so it there were e. U. Interests there were chinese interests there were dutch interests of the chinese interests so most vessels that pass through those areas have interests from many nations unlike the grace one which was a single currency or cargo which was a rainy and cargo and it was headed towards syria as interfering is as their end would say with that vessel is does. Have the same impact all right lets go to mohammed now and ill see what he thinks is the scenario in the gulf right now is it a case of of this u. S. Campaign of maximum pressure not allowing iran to export one drop of its oil and therefore iran saying well that its going to its going to obstruct the whole industry for the rest of the world as well. No i dont think that this particular incident really happened and while there are cases where the iranian navy. May take action against particular ships or behave in a particular manner its usually in a risk in response to what the saudis or their moralities or the americans do to iranian ships so this is something thats been happening for a long time but in this particular case if the iranians had decided to take an oil tanker they would have taken it and then the british cannot stop the iranians this is after all the persian gulf the iranians so many years on is it just a islands so is it just a matter of nuisance value then the iranian navy wanting to cause a bit of a headache and to create a bit of a problem for people then in the gulf. No i was they said this is something that the different sides do but on this particular occasion i think probably Nothing Happened in what really happened was that the americans immediately after they want to be they called for this stablish ment of a Naval Task Force that would be obviously hostile towards iran and work alongside the iranian coast this socalled incident happened and we had different. War it was reported in different ways by the americans the americans initially said there were 5 boats the british sense that there were 3 boats in the americans who said there were 5 points they were there were military officials so even the story itself it was inconsistent the iranians said Nothing Happened as i said if the iranians wanted to take both theres nothing that the british could have done the run ins have a very strong presence in the persian gulf and so i think that its basically the british appeasing the americans and even the oil tanker not not that the iranians may not take a ship later on but when they do seek a ship they will take it in that will probably be in retaliation to the fact that the british hijacked an iranian ship and the iranian ship was taken at the behest of the americans although the prata government says otherwise but apparently the Spanish Foreign minister didnt receive the memo he said specifically that the americans asked for this shia be taken over right now coming to you and he say in london i suppose a starting point needs to be the seizure of this Iranian Oil Tanker in the strait of gibraltar obviously gibraltar being a british territory and the sequence of events starting from that point to where we are now do you think that it was a calculated. Action taken by british authorities to seize this ship even though it was apparently in contravention of sanctions against syria but was it a calculated action taken by the British Government which you think. I think obviously at the moment the stakes are really high for book side to saw what we are seeing is still was describing some additional for instance is that where already berea taken plays an incident where already taken place but that are placed in a very different context in which the stakes are higher and did 2 sides are taking a much stronger position we are seeing especially in order to foster nuns and translation from a stronger rhetoric or to stronger actions in practice both from the iranian side and european side so i dont know to specific os these instance on whether it was in retaliation for an rainy and for instance reprising or their Nuclear Activities or whether it was a decision from the u. K. To try to basically take a stance which is closer to new us but we are seeing and growing tendency by both sides to or toughening up their rhetoric but also to take harsher measures which were not taken before and staying with you and he said because the u. K. Is finding itself isnt it as mohamed has pointed out finding itself in a very awkward position its about to leave the European Union we expect of therefore is vulnerable as he put it all in even more greater need if you like of of u. S. Patronage and certainly in the form of a of a big fat trade deal so theyre prepared to do what it takes to keep that relationship going would you agree with that. Just to or some extent i think the expectation was the same would regard to the nuclear deal when for instance that their us president and decided 1st to decertify the us and then to withdraw the us from didnt occur there was the expectation that the u. K. Might break ranks with the rest of the e. U. And the position itself closer to the u. S. But that did not happen we have seen actually a closing out of the rancid between the u. K. And under the tree france and germany in particular so it really depends on the front which we are talking about i think on the knocker issue as correctly youre already at the beginning the u. K. Has been still 19 in its position. Of defending the new ground by funding up until recently i answered of iran with its nuclear obligation and doing everything it could really to look. For didion to survive right in the region are front however a story in the u. K. Has taken a step closer push it was german to the us and sort of this is what we are seeing at the moment right phil coming back to the situation on the ground all i should say on the war so i really so the situation is very tense indeed weve got the highest level of alert when it comes to british Maritime Forces have you ever seen a situation as tense as this before in your experience and obviously many people will be thinking back to the late 1980 s. And what was known as the tonka war. I mean historically these these events have occurred or see through time the that we mustnt forget that it seems like ages ago now but you know 2007 the incident with the h. M. S. Cornwall where 15 members of the wrong navy were arrested by the iranian guards with small boats you know that incident occurred and that led to a rise in tensions and increase in security levels but that you know it was only 2007 but yet that seems like a long time ago and i think we do need to think its very interesting timing from the british to take the grace from the iranian tanker to rest it off gibraltar because they would have known that that would have led to consequences that were were starting to see here and also the the american attempt to start creating a coalition to support vessels going through the straits of hormuz weve seen this sort of thing before in fact we see it going on currently but in a different environment in the gulf of aden where weve got 4 fatalities or are there weve got a convoy escorts that go through the gulf of aden which was set up in against piracy threat at the time and thats still going on although the piracy is for as diminished but the biggest difference is a potential for escalation in that environment is so much less than is in the gulf of a moves right so any coalition that is built has to go into account now mohamed given given this kind of exceedingly tense environment i would imagine theres very little chance for dialogue but how much hope is there in tehran being invested in the europeans and their and their ability to come up with this alternative system instead this is the way its being it is what its being called to to try to mitigate if you like the effects of these harsh american sanctions. Well we have to keep in mind that the only side that has been abiding by the nuclear deal over the last 14 months is iran and this is something that the western media and the western think tanks really rarely say there are people who point this out but its its not really known by the western public that iran has been faithfully abiding by the deal and even now that its beginning to reduce its commitments its only doing so to force the europeans to take a stand because the europeans have all sorts of commitments they have been violating all of them because of bullying from washington and so the iranians are saying look we cannot continue like this iranian public will not accept it the iranian public is becoming increasingly frustrated and they expect the government to take action and so the government is becoming more forceful in its attitude in its position towards the i dont im not very optimistic about the e. U. But i do think that its in the interests of the you to change its policy into stand up to the United States it has an economy that by some calculations is larger than the United States and it has of the population thats larger than the United States and the russians and the chinese are resisting the United States so theres no reason why the e. U. Especially in coordination with the russians and the chinese cannot do a lot more than what its doing now but ultimately if the u. Doesnt take a stance then we may move towards greater escalation in that thats what the americans are pushing for when trump speaks about obliterating iran he said that a number of times already which is basically a threat of holocausts hes hes threatening iran with nuclear strikes but we dont see any european leader or any major media outlet showing shock or condemning such language on the other hand he is trump himself says that hes carrying out Economic Warfare and hes building other countries not to do trade with iran you cannot purchase medicine through the Banking Sector and iran and right now there are examples of people whove gone without their. Medicine. For cancer because its so expensive they dont want their family to live in destitute so the choose to die as a result this is a policy that the europeans in their right are pursuing these say so mohammed is suggesting that the europeans could actually do a great deal more in terms of of helping irans economy out of this this tight squeeze its been placed upon it by the American Campaign do you think the europeans do have that latitude and if so if they do have it or theyre not actually exercising it whats holding them back. Look i think they mania and have rightfully expectation that the europeans would do more in terms of their way down to describe it compensate for the u. S. Would draw from in america this was a very much expectation since last year and since may 2018 and it tore across from the iranian side where very much clearer seems than meaning the connection to the financial global system and a continuation of its ability to export oil. In stocks mckinneys them obviously europeans invested very much on to Financial Connections side however and that is very limited its also 1st of all use not really ongoing at the moment despite operationalization and its very limited on the humanitarian goods armley and we have seen a continuation of irans inability to or south its all oil to the priest actions level so its clear that they are right and expectation have not met in terms of the european cup abilities obviously what we have seen so far has been very limited compared to day rate and expectation but has also been unprecedented compare to easter a story to. Stand up to us in terms of institutionalizing our financial mckinneys and and introducing a blocking regulation and so on and support if we were talking back in late 2017 there was no expectation whatsoever that this was going to happen obviously much more could be done but i think it requires time and time is really not anyones friend and a moment right mohamed so you took a little bit earlier about the possibility of iran escalating if you like its noncompliance with the terms of the what remains of the day c. P. O. A is it wrong prepared to go so far as to render it completely obsolete tear. It up and walk away is iran prepared for that yes i think that iran ultimately is willing to do that because if the europeans do not take steps to abide by their commitments then there is no reason for iran to say the but the reason why the iranians are gradually reducing their commitments is to give the europeans an opportunity to do something i mean what the europeans have done so far as is really nothing instax maybe a political statement but it is it is an empty vessel it doesnt do anything there has to be money in it European Companies are afraid to Purchase Iranian Oil well if theyre afraid that europe the european governments can purchase oil are they that afraid of the United States the the the right now the chinese are purchasing iranian oil increasingly as we speak the russians are cooperating with you ron so if the iranians simply dont buy it that the europeans cant do anything and if they really cant do anything in the europeans should not be sitting at the negotiating table they should step aside because theyre not of significance but the iranians i think what is even more important is that the iranians are more than prepared to defend themselves and this escalation that the americans are pursuing is very dangerous this is 1988 where the americans can down an iranian airliner killing 200. 00 in 1000. 00 people and nothing happens this is an iran today which yeah shoots down a 200000000. 00 american drone with a 20000. 00 iranian made draw right iran has underground installations from the iraqi border alongside the persian gulf to the strait of hormuz to pakistan with tens of thousands of precision guided missiles and iran has allies across the region and they in 1980 right was isolated and surrounded ok a very different time today phil coming back to you im just wondering a little bit more about the situation in the gulf itself how how easy would it be if you like would it be for there to be. An intent. Tional ratcheting up of of tensions which could lead to direct conflict im particularly referring to britain at the moment because thats where our focus is today how likely is it that it could just unintentionally spiral out of control i think youve hit the nail on the head there with the unintentional side of it i think everyones aware of the implicit dangers of putting military assets into an area such as this i mean one of the biggest dangers is the unintentional event that leads on to escalation don trump has been pushing for the u. S. To lead a coalition but doesnt want to be doing on their own so trying to build a coalition because as you rightly point out most of the oil that goes through there and our customers are the ones who are transporting this oil through the straits most of that oil is going out to china and japan india america will be a net exporter of energy by next year so actually its requirements to keep the lanes open its a purely for the for the flow of oil for example is much less than other nations hence they need to build a coalition because they dont want to pay for it and that suits trumps agenda you know so hes saying that if i see america 1st and able to. Build the coalition but the things coalitions and this goes right back to your point is that when you build a coalition you all the operators will operate under their own National Rules of engagement and their ways of operating when youve got that situation you could have situations develop where an event occurs that is not necessarily supported or would be followed in the same way by another nation so coalitions in that sense in this tinderbox environment they will be thinking very carefully about committing to this area going back to your point about the british. Nope sorry go no please please finish but be quick if you will because we are running out of time for please nova now those are so so the brits the british involvement in the area because we have british interests in the area the british will of course do what they can but in terms of the effectiveness of all those vessels going through the air it is an enormous challenge to have a full policing effective policing effort to prevent things like this happening if youve got arms in an area like this theres always a scale ation potential right and any say looking at the british the british position right now it seems as though theyre increasingly in this all is a vise like situation how how desirable or otherwise is it for the u. K. To be seen to be viewed by others as a proxy for the United States and i have to ask you to be brief please i think. The u. K. Is really willing to be somewhere between the e. U. And the us and development i dont even want to be perceived as a proxy after us i dont think it wants to fully ally in or to the us policy on iran because there is so much disagreement internationally to worse the us policy on iran about the closer detentions gets between the us and iran did more to provoke ation from the iranians are ignored it measures taken by the iranian side to which the u.

Because of the boxes of the of the m. P. s. They belong to the people who will jump at these called the European Union to account. A look you can hear us look inside. What do they do here. Nothing. I am theres a hugely important debate about the future all to European Union today and im trying to say. I mean its impossible for them to people but this is the european problem and its not accountable. Like even in croatia in the parliament you have a balcony of a dog and if people can come every day and look whats happening but you know. The closest i can get is the press room where we get to see our representatives on t. V. But then the European Parliament is unique. Normally parliaments the wise their own laws but here they can only accept or reject legislation from the unelected European Commission you know. Its one of the reasons you believe there nigel farage says british its to leave the e. U. Leave and just days after the break sit while hes relishing his. Success well i have to say youre not laughing now are you. Know that. As a policy to impose poverty on greece and the rest of that trade youve done that really well by stealth by deception without telling the truth you wouldnt take the fall then a Political Year here the 1st thing is the right everything was put out. So people can see a sight theres a tragedy of do you know if. I may not agree with what he stands for but thats the paradox of europe today. I dont think so what has cause hes saying youre against europe. One question yes how do explain the rise of hell keep on trying less and youll become europe until i die how do you mean smart how do you explain the rise of i must mean how do you explain the rise of some reason you know how do you explain that its a failing union i want to turn yes im here. Because you are getting the growth of houses across the political spectrum growth of rejectionism of this model because the model doesnt i mean so what do we have then i mean if you have nation states because of nation states borders walls and there isnt this dangerous oath and democracy but where is the marker say what is not here. So im going on a journey to understand how come the far right can claim to be deceivers democracy. Net result one we saw how europe is facilitating gets on colonization privatization the extraction of resources is secret trade deals like the people. The nature of remits is a construction of ultra neo liberal system will cement culture here we believe in europe. And the financial forces behind the politicisation are driving governments into wars abroad. Which in turn are producing refugee flows the challenge an already anxious population. The major decisions that determine how life is lived are made without popular participation and that causes anger frustration and. Contempt for the parliamentary system and it leads to. Erratic and often trite reactions thats couple little severe economic growth. In deceptive and examine how the anger and frustration generated by this whale politicisation the p. B. S. Show for european democracy is we dont. Know member 2015 terrorists attacked paris killing 130 people leaving over 400 injured. Attacks on Brussels Airport and nice followed all carried out in the name of i. C. So how did you dont make sense of this we discussed it as coming out of northern in explicable acts committed by evil people because of their adherents to our. Ideology but just because a neck this inexcusable doesnt mean its inexplicable. Non tomsky is a prolific writer only International Relations and the riches of terrorism you look at news russell these are people from the. Miserable suburbs or older its internal problems that are leading to terrorist attacks again people with you know the people involved people been picked up by the police at least. Very few. Shallow islamic groups theyre drawn to jihad is. Kind of a way out of their group ration and humiliation the. Internal pressure. The belgian and terrorist attacks were carried out by a man from brussels. If somehow washed runs a youth center here in the district of small and. I 5 nice to meet you yes welcome to a little bit of things when you show us around a bit yeah. Youll encounter any kind of discrimination maybe already in your childhood because you are all my stories and never let the faces in my school my. Skin the look the family just springing from posting some boats must seem so but my left on the bus. To trust. To believe that some of the terrorists for committed the terrorist attacks in madrid in paris and also here where from well im back is the level of discrimination higher today after the. Terrorist attacks
