Asian theyll talk about sanctions how do you even have any ports that function in iran given the International Sanctions against your country well at the beginning of the sanctions they put the. Mikes in on pressure on the shipping sector including try turning off the International Shipping companies especially the container liner carriers to seize their. Trade with iran and to to have. Call to indian ports the classification societies were issued deceptive because for the ships and those who are members of iraqs which is the International Society association they also stopped their coverage of iranian ship Insurance Companies internationally into Insurance Companies even insured and again a collapse but fortunately due to the capacities of ukrainian maritime sector coding. Shipping companies you know our shipping line Islamic Republic of iran shipping line which is mainly a non tank air fleet. At the moment from capacity point of view its rank is 14th. And our National Tanker company. Is its always among the top 3 this is not some something that can be ignored in the matter of time transportation. So we have such a huge capacity of our own fleet under the iranian flag or owned by the Ukrainian Companies and we had our own we have our own Classification Society which just after the sanctions they start to cover issuing the class 4 of the ships then we have local Insurance Companies that collapse all at the moment majority of our ships are trading all over the water so you know going to be meeting anyone or lloyds of london any syndicate underwriters for p. N. I know no actual down here in london probably because of the sanctions but i tell you a word presumably lloyds of london the swiss re munich re all the begin sure is very interested in what you have to say because of instability as regards shipping both in the bible my lips trades and of course the straits of hormuz just tell me what is this new home was in the shooting of the duran is. Is trying to promote to try and ensure the security of maritime trade well as. Proposed during his speech United NationsGeneral Assembly at the halmos peace india or is emphasizing the capability of regional countries to do to enhance the security of maritime activities. From the iranian side. Our naval forces not only are. Guaranteed the security of the navigation in. The waters under our jurisdiction they have a history i think of at least 10 years of covering the security of the. Multinational fleets in the gulf of aden. Off the coast of somalia somalia where there were threats of the piracy so while we have such a. Power to guarantee the security of the shipping then whats the need of the presence of foreign or a. Fleet naval forces from outside that region because that was you know written isnt the royal navy to patrol your coast line a move. By iran according to the British Government there is no history of piracy off the coast of iran actually reza ronnie was explicit that it moves peace endeavor involving countries all around that region not britain not the United States there is a continuous contact between ports on my time of crisis and of iran and shipping companies and the port authorities maritime administrations of that region especially those countries that you have closer and better relation and. Other countries in the far east and europe to make clear what are these other countries getting in the container ships that come from by under a bus another iranian ports a tour because they cannot load it i mean theres a story on congress here in b. C. 14000000 barrels of oil needed to china between january and may this year its not breach of sanctions because its been held up to join these gustavus because they could theoretically flood the market is a tankers and container ships coming out of iranian ports and then just staying in other ports for fear of u. S. 3rd party arguably illegals entry just after the. Imp. Holding of the sanctions we had for a few months. Rather sudden decline after 2 ports off to puerto specially on the container traffic which is continuing on the container traffic so far on the other hand container fleet which is it is there its on. The shipping lines content if it is active between ukrainian or stand the force of far is in some European Force india ports so they have important next port but none of these customers fear that the United States will pile into them for taking in ships from your ports i guess not because they are even e. U. Borders and at the moment the true port of the union ports in total. Is positive comparing to last year comparing to the few months after the imposing of the sanctions the are at least 4 percent. More loading and unloading in our ports comparing to last union yet what do you make looking back on it the british taking the grace one which changes name dariel one 0 well actually that was. A clear breach of the International Maritime warship was. Passing to. Magic time route and. The action which was taken against that wasnt acceptable according to international milo knew it all usual ownership but surely was in breach of e. U. Sanctions. Would be carrying heating oil for the poor of syria will leave you wanted to overthrow the government is the ive no idea about the cargo im just saying as a manager of your son Maritime Organization you do the reading the i am just telling about International Maritime regulations its the right of the owner to change the name and flag flag of the ships and Iranian Maritime law a load. The. Ships to be flagged under. Iranian bridges straight so thats why we did about grace one and it was a legal action when youre here in london or the International Maritime organization you said iran is one of the worlds naval powers did you run into the british delegate because of course britain is accusing your government of hijacking their steno imperio tanker in retaliation for what the iranian government or as the hijacking of the iranian flag tanker by already answered their claim that sign i mean steno in peril had some actions which was. In breach of the International Matter time which brita then they are then accidents and they didnt. You know occur to the to the warning by auto to tears and thats why it was detained because thats directly contradictory to what the british authorities are saying in fact all across nato nation media was the fact that while oh how many was meeting with. Prime minister of japan your government. Was hijacking japanese related tankers while he was in tehran. All its not acceptable there is that youre a danger to america and no evidence of our death i mean there was an accident we actually. Risk you the people the crew of that ships which was attacked somehow we never accept such you know such claim unfortunately there were. Some attacks on our tankers in red sea at least 3 of our tanker ships us into regrets it was attacked by an unknown. You know people and it is clear that it was intentional attack on our tank who do you suspect we dont suspect any specific country being the managing director of irans border 30 when you read the International Media particularly that are native nations saying that your country is isolated that theres no business to be done in your country that its declined to the point of the end of the iranian government whats your reaction to the evidence of trade and economy. Activities is what we see in all the ports as the manager of ports and my Time Organization as i mentioned i am. Looking at my ports its plenty of ships calling my main ports especially ports of man that are part of him or me even sometimes the way maintenance is all fine you can get the parts for all in the same time we are expanding the capacity of our main owns the projects are running we have to sort of charter heart which is over new port. North of the indian ocean but im going to also ask the hormuz peace endeavor ali larijani the parliamentary speaker said that as part of the guaranteeing security away from nato powers like the United States and britain would even know. Even the who the community in yemen could be suggested by the iranian government to enter political processes who knows helping to end the worlds worst humanitarian crisis are we talking about massive geopolitical change ahead for you. As the woman is endeavor goes on i hope that you know the process goes in such a manner that regional countries can. Come to a conclusion that the same movement of the security and especially support security of the Maritime Transportation can be achieved through the cooperation of the regional conches that so you see lighting the fire in poverty so you seek peace and prosperity not Nuclear Weapons to destroy the entire region which is the narrative here those who has done these experiences have been always ashamed for did you know that activity against the people using nuclear weve been as a as a weapon of mass destruction we dont believe to such a weapon can guarantee. Security any prove. Cooperation between the countries. Thank you there were comes from tougher the great tens of millions and counting with hundreds killed in the past few days when will the killing would be displacing stop 13 years since the tory backed blair right labelled war in iraq and is london wakes up to the aftermath of mass protests against britains nato Leaders Summit we are supposed to be roasted code pink leader but they have been german how brain dead the organization formed to oppose the us i saw is going on the plot to going underground. All the yen the euro and the dollar they all refer to each other and theyre all going deeper and deeper into debt so theres no basic there or there theres no so theres no way to measure the dead against something that is could be considered money remember j. P. Morgan said only gold is money Everything Else is credit or debt ok so without that there is no way to measure that debt and theres no at the moment you know my my view is that this is leading to a neo feudalism poor you have just a few private equity firms owing 98 percent of all the assets and everyone else is a living as serfs on that were getting back to the dark ages. Of carrying the special can something we can benefit so is one of the many of the. Yeah but youre also with me also if. You thought the whole doping can russia think was over forget it. Part of your book you talk about through a complete pressure we have mostly of some of the models and. Russian outlets eligibility for the International Competition season state this includes events like the Tokyo Olympics and the fee for world cup and qatar if i am in that. You know when youre coming out there just as it was 4 years ago moscow antidoping plavix at the center of the scandal so he tampered with the dubin samples database and wonders greegor you want she could have to do with it and yet she still does restartable doesnt mean it doesnt. Mean that hes a push on the dealership might expose me innocent thats a little to the bullshit. Welcome back while s. N. P. Lib dem green and bricks of Party Leaders trade general Election Campaign arguments with Boris Johnson over the tragic London Bridge atrocity that killed 2 u. K. Labor leader jeremy cool it was clear that terrorism is a product of the bipartisan tory backed blairite labor u. K. War in iraq the violence in iraq meanwhile has not stopped 16 years since Royal Air Force tornadoes from 9 and 617 squadrons bombed baghdad joining me now is iraqi people and academic Sami Ramadani of londons metropolitan University Thanks so much sami for coming on before we even get to iraq per se trump of course said the iraq war was a tremendous mistake theres no w m d although he had varying ideas about the war ahead of 2003 that hes in london for the nato summit i have thats a satirical question i think trum represents the naked face of u. S. Interests special in the middle east and terms of control over Oil ResourcesNatural Resources and backing israel to the hilt against all comers we heard about iran in the 1st off of this program iraq neighboring iraq Mainstream Media sources saying is undergoing great developments in the sense because the Prime Minister or ideological muddy as resigned in yet this important cleric grand ayatollah has done. He says the enemys plan to spread chaos and then return it to dictatorship he doesnt mean back to the u. K. Back to them losing days what is going on in iraq he does actually and his entire fund the intervention last week on friday was very critical critical to the events in general because he is or highs in manners as the one authority that commands respect in the streets of baghdad in the south and his intervention was quite strong. That. Is a direct reference to the United States because the United States and saddams baath Party Alliance now open alliance. Representatives of the baath party abroad and so on are boasting of their new alliance with the United States to kick out what they call it or a me an occupation of iraq so his reference to the return of the dictatorship is directly related to that official endorsement of an alliance between the United States and saddam as its in iraq but they cant surely be blamed for hundreds of people being killed in the past few weeks as much reporting here maybe over 400. 00 people and its the United States that is saying that investigations need to be done into the use of Excessive Force by the iraqi authorities for being if that the u. S. Is helping the killing there is a legitimate. Concern and and anger amongst the people in iraq against a corrupt state against the brutal killing of demonstrators so there is a side to these demonstrations a very important side that people are angry with corruption with lack of Public Services some of which this is not only caused by these at. Regimes that the United States installed in iraq after the occupation of iraq in 2002003 but the United States it sat of destroyed iraqs infrastructure and Public Services but what the United States is doing today because the test setting contradictions with the Iraqi Government policies the United States is infiltrating these demonstrations and the Iraqi Governments policy is that recent policies in the last 6 to 9 months have upset the United States enormously they open the borders with syria against us. Concerns they have refused to apply sanctions on iran these are stronger headlines they went to china signed tough attorney and dollars where thought Infrastructure Projects in iraq they have decided within the context of the middle east not to use iraq as a base u. S. Base in any future attack on iran but maybe they have shown some autonomy in baghdad but there are reports that amanda solomon intervened to try and keep money in power and the mud wall street journal saying now hes gone the jump administration has an opportunity here what do you think the wall street journal means by that and is it true that all that autonomy is not risk it is at risk but again i stress that the balance of forces in iraq has shifted to gradually over the last 5 to 10 years that in iraq the United States has failed to impose completely its will over iraq and its governments there are the Popular Mobilisation forces that were cold up on by ayatollah sistani to go and fight isis for 6 months the United States refused to back iraq. Against the isis advance on iraq and these p. M. U. Popular mobilization units have become extremely strong and they are hostile to us for policy in iraq so you have a situation in iraq where the balance of forces is such that who ever rules iraq will have to look over their shoulders but there are important forces as well which prou. S. So there is a critical situation developing in iraq where the situation is quite fluid and it is not clear whether the United States will have its way even after a bit as a Great Resignation of ive done my duty so im around on the thank you. Well joining me now to go through some of the weeks top stories is the cofounder of grassroots antiwar and geo code pink but there Benjamin Reid there thanks so much for joining us in this year lets go straight to the barclay brothers telegraph which is related to why you are in london major some adult trump says we would be in world war 33 if it wasnt for me why you protesting this weeks today well hear some a takeoff on this because he was saying it referring to north korea which he really pushed that crisis by going into that whole fire and fury issue you know he is mr world with 3 if theres going to be a world where 3 actually would be around iran where he is creating this incredible conflict totally manufactured by donald trump where here because we think that nato should have been disbanded in when the soviet union fell apart that theres no need for this military alliance that it just sucks up a lot of money that goes to weapons manufacturers and we know the like here in the u. K. Their campaign saying no we dont want to do that we want our money to go to things Like Health Care education Green New Deal who are we fighting against to he wants to fight against well you know he installed them but im trying to run russia i dont think. People of the European Union or anybody in europe really wants to go to war with china or russia ok whoa time to end the anachronistic nato well there will be less at the nato summit about this next story from the main line to so many images of malnourished baby boy in the yemeni hospital reveal devastating cause a conflict which is driven millions to the brink of famine not so much about this worlds worst humanitarian crisis to say that were in an Election Campaign restrictions in corbin the greens as in people either in the lib dems or against john sales to saudi arabia and the tories are appear to be for it well lets just say that its not its the u. K. Its the us its the french its the wonderful liberal western democracies that have been playing supplying the saudis with these bombs that have been destroying yemen and you know you look at the picture like that and your heart goes out and you think you know what we mean were giving aid to help that trouble but i think what they are in the structures that is destroying the possibility of these people to get access to food in the medicines they need if they survive they are stunted for life their brains are are affected by malnutrition so this is decades that it will take to say nothing of all the money that it will cost to rebuild yemen but the way to stop this immediately is to stop the weapons sales stop the support to the saudis well they do governments and i bombing themselves in fact they just say they have robust arms regimes despite the saudi arabia but this from Amnesty International on saudi arabia says saudi arabia g. 20 leaders must address human rights record is the kingdom takes over the presidency of the g 20 next year will be the g 20 summit saudi arabia doing very well theres a boxing match between Anthony Joshua and the reason saturday gucci chanel starbucks Big Companies are going the g. s e conference in riyadh.

S. All the time and we were sort of Live Streaming and i was explaining and going to the manager and saying please send our requests up up the chain of command saying that you shouldnt be having the stores in saudi she grabbed the phone out of our hand to call the police on us so much for free speech in london why should the d g 20 be meeting there when saudis have thrown women activists in prison and torture them most recently in the last 2 weeks have thrown a new set of activists in prison they are responsible for the humanitarian catastrophe in yemen so it should be a country thats on the boycott list though we always are by the Saudi Arabian ambassador to london on the show and im sure lush would love to come on to explain why although in their embassy because you never know if youll come out alive of course the future Gene Washington post journalist well saudi arabia is getting close to israel of course there b.
