A volcano in the philippines threatens to erupt after spewing a massive plume of ash into the sky near manila it forces the cancellation of hundreds of flights and authorities ordered tens of thousands of people to back well go live to our correspondent. Nick spicer thanks for joining us angry protests have erupted for a 2nd day in iran after the government admitted its forces accidently shot down a ukrainian passenger jet killing 176 people in tehran thousands of demonstrators including many students criticize the government for initially denying it was behind the disaster protesters say changes are needed to address peoples grief and frustration. Only a few 100 students gathered at Tehrans Azadi Square but they were met with tear gas the government moving quickly to clamp down on any protests a University Teacher appeared on a broadcaster loyal to the station to warn those organizing further demos that they would be responsible for any resulting bloodshed. But even among progovernment newspapers disappointment and anger dominated the headlines shame rid im sorry which printed the names of all 176. 00 victims of wednesdays plane crash. But they came clean about it too late and thats whats so sad we cant accept that for 3 days they lie to us because theyve only told the truth now because they could no longer hide it probably because it was a ukrainian airliner. Irans parliament has agreed to an inquiry to name those responsible for shooting down the plane but for many thats little consolation defying a heavy Police Presence demonstrators moved to other squares cross the city their numbers in the hundreds now but public anger in iran is growing and for some insight on this im joined now by. The shes the Diplomatic Correspondent in washington d. C. For the british newspaper the independent thank you for joining us u. S. President donald trump sent out a tweet in solidarity with the protesters in iran saying the usa is watching and that actually is likely to help their cause. And none really might actually impacted negatively or have no impact whatsoever we have seen in the past that the Security Forces the Intelligence Forces the cynically the most hardline factions have been trying to attach to Democracy Movement and protesters to the enemy to the outside to the israelis to the americans and for the american president to come out and try to show this message of not to support but in a way cheering that. Could be detrimental to the protesters and also lets not forget this is the same president last week one iranians that he would target them including their cultural doubled down on that comment twice after his advisors are going to be warned him that thats going to cost to the war crimes so im also doubting that intentions of the president the fact that he might have any kind of sympathy with there are new people as opposed to using this for political. Ok well just looking forward us to worthing but the next step might be the American Defense secretary mark as a person is the u. S. Government is willing to hold talks with the wrens leaders to find what he called a new way forward what are the chances of that actually happening. Well the chances are not 0 any kind no Public Diplomacy like the one he saw with the Obama Administration and the deal in 2015 is very unlikely now because the political cost of bad for the Iranian Administration is going to be very high to basically sit down with a u. S. President or administration who is fascinated their top general but then at the same time that doesnt mean fact channel or iranians have the political to a prisoner swap which washington is also in that in and that might lead to door to more diplomacy there are many mediators many other countries who have been willing and ready to step in so we might see some back channel to diffuse the tension and basically take the both sides keep them at a cease fire but at the same time it seems like to iran is trying to wait president waited till the 20 twentieths action here to see what theyll be dealing with after november. And can you detect an actual american strategy beyond undoing the obama legacy. Of the previous administration. No really and thats roger to me this is president trond own advisers here in washington warning him against us papa visors former defense secretary mattis general don for his former secretary of state tillerson all warning him to not leave the nuclear deal which he did anyways calling himself the best deal maker whos going to cut a new deal well none of that has happened as far as reigning irans regional behavior that hasnt happened in fact iran has regional adventures have gotten more its now theyre attacking bases where u. S. Forces are station and it just seems like hes more president obama is on a more a skillet where he had although he might be interested he might say that hes interested in talks and you deal but as far as his policy and where his aides have been pushing him its really the path toward more conflict unless he changes something. You know dramatic and his policies. Ok reporter nick our mortazavi in washington d. C. Thank you for that iraqs military says 8 rockets have stricken a major air base where some u. S.
