Off the rails on hundreds of thousands of people are left stranded in south africa because of train truck. Iran is threatening the United States with a crushing response to efforts to reimpose sanctions the u. S. Has triggered a socalled snap back of the sanctions which were lifted in the 25th day of Iran Nuclear Deal but every other permanent member of the United NationsSecurity Council rejects the u. S. Plan arounds present tells on rouhani is urging the u. S. To respect International Law hes praised world ows for standing up to american pressure. Here. We could see the u. S. Lost 3 times in the span of a month but the un Security Council the americans always thought that they had the upper hand at the Security Council for many reasons including enjoying the veto power and having traditional friends they never imagined to be defeated at the same council we saw 13 out of the council 15 Member States seductive the u. S. They supported the j. C. And rejected the United States today we can say the u. S. Policy of maximum Political Legal pressure against their Indian Nation turned into maximum isolation for the United States and the u. S. Backed out of the Iran Nuclear Deal 2 years ago because of the as britain france and germany say the u. S. Has no right to reimpose sanctions the u. S. Secretary of state is not backing down though michael threatening what he describes as consequences the u. N. Member states failing to comply with u. S. Sanctions on iran as a bank has moved from tehran. President Hassan Rouhani made this televised address Cabinet Meeting the weekly Cabinet Meeting now we were expecting this we were told 20 minutes before he went to air and very much is taking advantage of this split the United NationsSecurity Council he china and russia who have been friends of iran and if that vote had happened at the United Nations russia and china would have vetoed it that was irans understanding but also he thanked those members of the Security Council of those Member States that stood up to the United States and dont want those sanctions imposed and this is an Unprecedented Division act knighted nations and iran is really capitalizing they see this as a diplomatic victory. This diplomatic battle has been going on for a while now and the United States is internationally isolated and iran feels that the odds are stacked in its favor but what iran does next very much depends on what the United States does in polls those u. N. Sanctions they are back in place everyone else disagrees but United States thinks that they are so whatever the United States does iran will respond and the rhetoric coming out of the problem is that response will be decisive against the United States and the really issued some warnings well aaron made out is an iran analyst he says u. S. Allies are now breaking with washington. Foreign policy in the u. K. Is basically in lockstep with the trumpet ministration on almost everything type for example last year. Seizure of the iranian vessel headed to syria. That i was told from the Spanish Foreign minister that the u. K. Was actually involved in in in ordering the seizure. I think what we can read from dominic rock u. K. Foreign ministers split from the us and with the with the other members of the 3 fronts in germany is that it is a totally unreasonable american demand no one in the no one in the u. N. Vote except the Dominican Republic supported not fact of u. S. Sanctions of u. N. Sanctions rather simply because the u. S. Left the j. C. Your way and most people see this has to do with american domestic is that. On fire has been really things information about. Attempts to assassinate u. S. Ambassadors and and in south africa hes got a habit of taking on verified intelligence and just putting out in the media it seems to be that americans are looking for political cover to basically escalate something perhaps by seizing. Incoming traffic into a wrong maybe illustrated will reveal something this is all about the election. Received with its during elections elect Lawrence Block to cumberland and times of war.

Yes things got really intense in the last 0 4 to 6 sunday in a row mass rallies have been taking place in bella ruse and several cities across the country in minsk or tens of thousands have been. Around the city center and when they try to head to the Freedom Square in the middle of the center there was a. Police blockade and a stand of happened police moved forward pushed the protesters away there was a bit of a scuffle there and there was also some gas used also in other cities the tear gas has been used and at the moment with mass policeman 5 around the city trying to beat change people who have not 1 dispersed and spread all across the city and people are sort of simply trying 5 to hide and run away whats your feeling about the men men tim here are people afraid i mean you see these images of men in belak love is with assault rifles detaining people once not doing to the protest movement. Well there is definitely a fear factor here because of course these mass detentions in the past 6 weeks more than 10000 people have been detained and also many have been released but they a lot of them have been beaten have been tortured so theres theres definitely a factor of fear and i saw earlier in this a Police Standoff you could see that people really are very angry but theyre also afraid at the same time so they were pushing forward but also with growing as a little soon after especially people who have of course been detained before are quite worried and they dont want that to happen again but they also know that if they dont come to these protests that the everything had been for nothing and that theyre look as she took a shank a will win this battle with so many people being detained i mean where are they all being put. Yes you have to know that this is a country with no history of these protests so this is the 1st time that such mas rallies have happened and these protests so they have retention chances but not enough. Thousands were the changes after the Election Results was and 8 what these people were sort of d together they had to lie on top of each other yesterday on saturday there was a large womens rally 400. 00 women were detained as well and it was clear that they couldnt couldnt handle this many detainees so they let most of the women go just a few hours after that ok thank you for that update there steadfast and live on the phone from minsk. Tens of thousands of tired protesters have ended a new round of demonstrations by presenting a set of demands to the monarchy it calls for the kings power to be limited to a new constitution and elections criticism of the monarchy is illegal in thailand demonstrators placed a plaque next to the grand palace in bangkok declaring the nation belongs to the people more protests are planned for thursday and a general strike next month wait a has more from bangkok. 7 for the significance 1st of all is the location where the protest was held tens of thousands of people turning out on saturday and where this park has been placed on number one which is the park that you mentioned just across the road from the grand palace its a Historic Site its been the scene of many royal ceremonies for centuries and it used to be a place that was open to the general public to use during the day as well but in recent years thats not been the case its been off limits to the public so the protest leaders made it clear that that was one of their targets they wanted to retake this park for the people and thats exactly what they did and in the early hours of sunday morning they dug up a section of the concrete in the park and place this plaque into that area and now the significance of the park itself is that it commemorates the 1932 revolution that turned thailand from an absolute monarchy into a constitutional one so the plaque says that thailand is for the people not just for the king 3 years ago an official park in another location nearby mysteriously disappeared overnight so that was seen by many certainly the protesters here and as another sign that the king was strengthening his power and perhaps turning thailand back into an absolute monarchy again.
