Today they lost their own lives as a result.

I married i havent seen welcome to the program. Iran has seized a british tanker in the strait of hormuz stand ampera was intercepted by iranian vessels and forced to sail to a court in iran iranian soldiers also briefly boarded a 2nd british own tanker mess star before allowing it to continue his journey is the latest in a series of incidents threatening shipping in the strait of hormuz which is the export route for the bulk of oil from the gulf region. The stana imperio seen here before its captured by Iranian Naval forces is now a pawn in a game of high stakes. The seizure comes after new rainy and old tunker is being held in custody for a further 30 days in gibraltar on suspicion of heading for syria and breach of sanctions. British foreign secretary jeremy hunt said the tit for tat would not spiral out of control. Were not looking at military options we are looking at a diplomatic way to resolve the situation. But we are very clear that it must be resolved freedom of navigation in the gulf is absolutely essential if that freedom of navigation is restricted iran is the biggest loser but navigating the waterway crucial for Global Oil Supply has become a Risky Business just days ago iran sees the United Arab Emirates oil tanker in the strait of hormuz iran is also blamed by the u. S. For attacks on 6 tankers in and around the strait tehran has resorted to disrupting shipping through the choke point in response to crippling u. S. Sanctions. U. S. President donald trump wants to pressure tehran into more concessions over its Nuclear Program he says his strategy is working rather showing their colors to work out very nicely iran is in big trouble right now their economy is crashing its coming to a creche drawing to bring soldiers back home because they can say a lot of bad things happening to them and its very easy to straighten out or its very easy for us to make it a lot worse but with one 5th of the worlds oil exports routed through the strait of hormuz the standoff could also spell trouble for the global economy. Atlanta but her by is a middle east analyst based in germany and he joins us now for more so it really does appear that iran is provoking the United States and also its allies is there a real danger that the u. S. Will retaliate military it militarily and that were going to see a full fledged war. First of all both the United States and the United Kingdom will be aware of iran responding to what is the u. S. Much of the pressure what is the deprivation of iranian tankers freedom of navigation through the seizure of the 10 cringe grow times so this is a response to all of that i dont see the nutria solution around the corner but obviously these incidents or the tit for tat secretary jeremy hunt was alluding to is certainly dangerous and they need to be efforts meet to stop this by by trying to up the diplomatic game. Well weve been saying this is not the 1st time that iran has seized an oil tanker in the strait of hormuz what kind of an impact is this going to have on global oil supplies. I am too ignorant of these of these links that what actually the impact movie immediately but obviously if you consider that freedom of navigation and does such an important route is now disrupted to the to the to the right intention tensions this is certainly creating costs and costs for everyone and i think this is generally irans message that if you put us as iran under pressure we will not allow others to get away with it and we will create costs for that beat in terms of. Lack of security in the strait of hormuz in that important road but also with regards to the Global Oil Market so i think this is runs calculation here well its now one of corus that iran has numerous proxies in the region just what else could the government in tehran do to increase pressure on the u. S. And allies do you see other players getting involved. I think you have the whole range of ambiguous us situation you have this is the fact that different groups aligned with the states or acting on their own can in fact operate by attacking u. S. Military bases by attacking the United Arab EmiratesSaudi Oil Fields weve weve seen that before we we see the reach that iran can have to harm the interests of the u. S. And its allies in the region and i have to say i think were just at the beginning of it theres obviously much more that can be done but i think the incidents that we are seeing basically the increase of numbers of these incidents happening is the escalation that we can see i dont see a full fledge war coming up but again there needs to be a diplomatic efforts to try to to avoid that. We thank you very much effort sharing your insights with us. Related. Lets get a look now at some of the other stories making news around the world saudi arabias king solomon has approved hosting u.

Its the final decision from the netherlands Supreme Court. And for the mothers of srebrenica its a disappointment. Find any hard as the Dutch Defense ministry and the dutch government are responsible for the start of the genocide in srebrenica if its one percent 10 percent or 100 percent they are responsible it is their cynicism primitivism and their own incapacity that they can only recognize it for 10 percent process reasons that was. Why 10 percent according to the court Dutch Peacekeeping forces should have been aware that the 350. 00 men hiding in their compound would be mistreated and even killed but the court also said even if they remained in the compound there was only a 10 percent chance that they would have survived. In 1905 thousands of muslims were fleeing serb forces they headed to muslim majority strip in its in both near where dutch un peacekeepers were stationed the courts decision is specifically about the 350 men who are hiding inside the dutch peacekeepers compound. The dutch battalion known as dutch but deprive these men refugee to the chance of staying out of the hands of the bosnian serbs. Think the verdict is fair if people make mistakes. Made a mistake. So be it thats fine i mean im human i can make mistakes so book to. Say. You made a mistake but its like one percent. But thats not fair whatever the percentage for the mothers of serpents benevolence remains responsible.
