Should pursue. Regional solution and it is very obvious cooperation in this regard from neighbors and clear steps is very important. In this regard. Security. Is not possible by creating problems in the neighborhood we believe security for all of us once again i would like to reiterate that the United States by assassinating. Carson when they money. Initiated the end of their presence in the region. And it has started now this is a key point in the original history so that we. Can in the hermas region. Who. Should in the perception of bringing security from the from external that have been created and i think girls about instability and. Insecurity. And by adopting the paradigm of cooperation and peace and stability which is the only solution for the region or the prosperous future. For. Following generation. This is the. The main wish of mark brader are some silly money in his competence thank you so much for your attention and have a good day. How much of a jury is the Iranian Foreign minister has been speaking at the dialogue former prescheduled event but obviously so much of his speech devoted to the assassination of samantha who he called a freedom seeker of the region targeted by his enemies and their allies. A lot of his speech devoted to the ideas of misperceptions and miscalculations and well be talking to our correspondent about that in a moment but i just want you to have a look at these pictures 1st of all. This is. About a 1000 kilometers give or take from the iranian capital tehran it is the home town of money and the people of color man have come out in their thousands to mourn his death many of them dressed in black for it as well and it has been quite a sight to see this sheer number of people 3 days of mourning 3 days of recessions of prayers very emotional times in tehran yesterday monday and now with his body returning to his home. For his burial which will be coming in a few hours time. As our correspondent in teheran as promised were going to talk to him as we listen to. I think the the the main things i kept hearing misperceptions and miscalculations is what he says the United States and other countries have of iran what is he talking about it. Well its a verb he was a very solemn foreign minister today he seems like hes still in mourning when these obviously all 3 days of mourning and the impact of the assassination of course of the money cant be overstated and arent on iranians we were out in the streets yesterday. Many people still upset now divides reads like you said we mentioned the words miscalculation big mistake he said that it was a coward this act and what hes talking about is the impact that the assassination of course of the mahdi would have not only here in iran but on the entire region increasingly we are hearing voices from iran that there will be revenge that there will be retaliation and the way that the government and officials and state authorities here are talking about this retaliation itll be difficult to come back from that were seeing pictures from man where the money will be buried now the word that we heard yesterday on the streets in tehran and the word that were hearing from. The car into a car which is revenge thats a fancy word for revenge that the head of the g. C. Was speaking in code of mine and he responded to the crowds and he said be calm our response will be tough it will be decisive and whoever carried out these attacks they would we will make them regret it now divides the reef is again hes very calm and saddam but hes pushing for that point that this was a big mistake and iran will respond he said that was a miscalculation he said that the United States president was rude and impolite and he said that his secretary of state is even more impolite and that they have made a grave mistake and were hearing that throughout iran but not only throughout iran throughout. The region the regional countries here are very nervous and people are increasingly coming to the understanding that the assassination of the man was probably a miscalculation on behalf of the United States because now the people in the streets here in iran expecting revenge expecting retaliation and the authorities here will probably have to oblige in some way. Thank you for that those miscalculations that he was talking about are referring to of what Mohamed Zarif was saying perhaps best illustrated by this picture what an extraordinary shot that is from up high over. As i said its about a 1000 kilometers away from the iranian capital tehran and there are so many people out there mourning. The 3rd day of mourning the final funeral procession if you like before his burial which comes in a few hours time this is his home city and the people who have come out remember he has a military where he was a military commander and you can see how incredibly revered he was by these thousands of people turning out dressed in black and holding the red flags are live pictures from in iran the funeral procession continues for tsunami. Meanwhile. The u. S. Defense secretary has had to clarify that theres been no decision to pull troops out of iraq this is of course old and spurn of the military figures said they were setting the record straight after a draw flatow by a top general was in their words mistakenly circulated confusion followed a vote in Iraqs Parliament which was pushing for all Foreign Forces to go following so their moneys assassination iraqs also trying to urge the u. N. Security council to take some action to condemn the killing of so their money as well as the shia militia leader who died along side. Well look more at that shortly but 1st this report from particle and shes at the pentagon with more on the confusion around that letter about the u. S. Troops there was a huge scramble here at the pentagon with the secretary of defense and the chairman of the joint chiefs suddenly appearing before reporters to say dont mind that letter u. S. Policy hasnt changed they insist that this general wrote this letter and this date simply to notify iraq that there be increased helicopter traffic as they move troops in and out of iraq but if you read the letter thats not mentioned anywhere in there it seems fairly explicit what hes saying saying that as requested by the Iraqi Parliament the Prime Minister theyre getting ready to move on begin implementing this next phase of operations goes on to say we respect your sovereign decision to order our departure so nowhere in the letter does it say anything about increased traffic it makes it fairly clear that the pentagon was planning to leave but here at the pentagon once that letter would public they were quick to put the top bosses out to say oh this was just a mistake were not leaving more with our bellies on the now in washington d. C. Gabriel with everything patty outlined there i mean thats why the confusing its misleading its just wrong it would maybe its just all of the above. Well yeah i think it probably was all of the above in the pentagon was very much cleaning up the messes today when they had that briefing. Excuse me im sorry when they had the premier of nick lehman clean up quite a few messes just that there they had to have this briefing basically clarifying that this letter was leaked and it was just a draft but it still leaves open a whole whole host of questions about this basically poor written letter and why it was why it was even leaked and what it actually even means and also in that briefing as well the secretary of defense mark asper was asked about trumps tweets and comments over the weekend where he said that he would strike cultural landmarks inside iran which would be a war crime esper was asked is that true and he would only respond with if we go to war with iran we will follow all of the laws of Armed Conflict the reporter asked him again so does that mean that you will not strike cultural institutions as trump suggested he said all i will say is we will follow all the laws of Armed Conflict so there you have the secretary of defense having to contradict the president this was an off camera briefing thats why were not showing you the video of of it but basically the pentagon today was consumed with basically clarifying and cleaning up cleaning up misinformation that was out there some of it was by themselves extraordinary if we since aside the issue of troops in iraq for a moment gabriel what is happening with troops elsewhere in the region because theres no doubt the u. S. And iran are on some sort of collision calls in the u. S. Is responding by upping its numbers. And they are they are sending troops to the region and the troops that are already there are being moved around a bit to relocated we know that there are about 4500 marines that have been sent to kuwait theres also this 82nd airborne has been and is in the process of deploying to kuwait as well other about 50000 troops in the entire region and theyre in bahrain and in the neighboring qatar as well and so even the troops that are in iraq are also being moved around their pentagon doesnt like to get into a lot of details about this but their message today was yes we are deploying resources and assets as they quite to call it to the region and redeploying others why one reason to be prepared for whatever whatever iran has planned should they decide to retaliate militarily that is gavrilo is on that with the update from washington d. C. Thank you very much for that gabriel lets look now at the debate in the divisions at the United Nations we referred to this earlier because iraq is pushing members of the Security Council to condemn the assassination of soloman a u. N. Secretary general antonio terrace says he is also worried about the growing fallout ive been following the recent rise in global tensions with great concern i mean Constant Contact with living officials around the rules and my message is simple and clear stop escalation exercise maximum restraint restart dialogue re new International Cooperation let us not forget the terrible human suffering caused by war following the story for us from u. N. Headquarters in new york is mike hanna. Iraq has sent a letter to the president of the Security Council and the secretary general asking for the Security Council to issue a statement condemning the United States for its action iraq says in the letter it stresses that any military operation on iraqi soil without the consent of the Iraqi Government and without prior coordination is considered as a provocative hostile act that violates the charter of the United Nations so iraq wanting at the very least a statement from the u. N. Security council but this isnt very likely the council and as on so many other issues deeply divided on this matter the Chinese Ambassador is saying that he is consulting with other members of the council when asked whether he will call for an urgent meeting the Russian Ambassador being even more blunt asked whether there was a likelihood of a joint statement from the Security Council he simply said no so clearly the issue of the Security Council and dealing with this crisis at the moment very very difficult where the council remains totally disunited meanwhile the head of nato has warned iran against further violence and provocations after an urgent meeting in brussels and stoltenberg says a new conflict is in no ones interest nato does maintain a 500 strong Training Mission in iraq for the fight against i thought but it suspended that after saddam and his death. Need to is prepared to continue a training and Capacity Building when the situation permits we remain strongly committed to the fight against international terrorism. After the meeting today the United States also briefed on the regional situation following recent attacks on Coalition Forces in iraq on the strike against generals from them on. For years all our lives have expressed concern about 2 wrongs do you stay abroad singer tutus in the middle east region. We agreed iran must never acquire a Nuclear Weapon we shared concern about irans missile tests. Just want to bring all of this back to iraq for a moment because a lot of iraqis are now worried that they are the ones will suffer the most from these growing tensions between iran and the u. S. Not to mention Donald Trumps threat to impose sanctions on a full team has been looking at that story from baghdad. And an easy mood has settled over back that scarred by decades of intermittent war people in iraqs capital know the eerie suspense that precedes one in coffee shops old and young alike who worry about being caught in the middle as the u. S. And iran threaten further escalation of the. We dont want the battle to come to our country they want to start a war they want to settle accounts but we are the ones who lose young men lose money lose infrastructure we wont benefit from this. People here are still in shock over the u. S. Strike that assassinated iranian general near Baghdad Airport drawing threats of retaliation from iran and its allies in iraq. Adding insult to injury President Donald Trump threatened on sunday to impose far reaching sanctions on iraq if the Iraqi Government responded by expelling u. S. Troops for such authority brings back painful memories from the saddam era when the u. N. Security council imposed a crippling trade embargo. For us as young people weve lived through the sanctions during our childhood we dont want to face the same thing again we want to build the country. Instead the country now risks sliding backwards the unfolding crisis between the u. S. And iran has shifted attention away from iraqs months long protest movement demanding far reaching political reform and an end to iranian interference in iraq. Assisting nation demonstrators have been attacked at least twice by pro iranian crowds their worst fear however is losing their cause. People are afraid they are afraid of a strike that happened and they fear that something will happen inside to rear to these demonstrations demonstrators are divided over the parliaments nonbinding the session on sunday to expel foreign troops some support the motion calling the u. S. Strike a violation of iraqi sovereignty and we want iraq to be an independent country a country that thinks and decides and makes its own decisions without any intervention by outside forces while others see the presence of american troops as a necessary counterbalance to raney an influence on of the. I am against the parliaments decision to expel the troops give me an alternative for the american troops who will protect me an alternative to protect these people that all parties the militias even i have a party to protect me or i will die kurdish and sunni parties boycotted some this Parliament Vote carried by the main shia blocs its a sign that iraqs leadership is once again split along sectarian lines. Rather than united by National Interest as the visions within iraq to deepen over how the government should respond to the escalating crisis between the u. S. And iran many iraqis are worried that they will once again be dragged into a war they did not choose their demands for a Better Future are now overshadowed by fear and not too distant memories of conflict and hardship seem on awful to you know ill just say well.
