and 8 round of talks is underway in vienna with iran wants guarantees. the us sanctions will be lifted on iranian oil sales. voters that m i c h round the vienna negotiations, put them back on the right track, and a good agreement can be reached if the western parties possess the real will. and intention. lifting sanctions means lifting all forms of sanction stipulated in the nuclear agreement on the sanctions that trump re imposed. and that contradicts terms of the agreement. and the latter is in disputed negotiations. we demand guarantees that include not imposing any new sanctions and not re imposing sanctions after lifting them onto any pretext. we see that the simplicity practical model for this would be when it comes to exporting oil and obtaining revenues through our banking system. there's an informal and indirect exchange of messages with the americans in vienna. home, we hear good words from their delegation. but what is important for us is to see practical and serious american actions center. although said jibari is in vienna for us for the re

k. prime minister repeated warnings that time is running out. dosage of already now with more from vienna there is a south korean delegation that's arrived in vienna led by the country's vice minister of foreign affairs. they are holding meetings with various parties. of course, south korea is very important in all of this because they are one of the countries that is holding on to anywhere between $7.00 and $9000000000.00 of iranian funds in their country as a result of us sanctions. iran was one of the main suppliers to south korea when it comes to oil. as a result of us sanctions, in 2018, the south koreans hasn't been able to pay or on for the purchases. they've made of iranian oil. amongst other things, this is why as the delegation is here, they're holding discussions with the americans and this could be viewed as a positive step. we still don't know if they will meet with the iranians, but as the 8th round of talks continue, there is a sense that all sides really want to achieve a result as quickly as possible. but the iranians have said that they're not going to sacrifice the resu

it protest by any stretch. athens, helsinki, london, paris, stock comb and vienna are all seeing tens of thousands of people hitting the streets. now in these light fixtures here, you can see all the crowds we understand. they are there in the vicinity. but you have to understand how these people feel in vienna, austria now with a vaccine mandate that goes to define mandate. we'll have to pay over $3000.00 euros every single month. now we've got protests in all major european capitals at the moment. but how do these people feel when in england bars johnson has just eradicated all coven restrictions in england? no copay, passport, no copays past no mosques, no mandatory vaccine mandates, no social distancing. so you understand why these people might feel like they're getting the short end of a stick here. when some countries like england, for example, are dropping all their cobra restrictions. now we are getting reports here, unconfirmed right now, of possible vandalism happening in brussels against the shops on line. some people are saying it's not the protestors, but it is members fr

last week talks in geneva, brussels and vienna didn't get things much further along on tuesday speaking in moscow, 4 minutes, the said again, love rob said that russia wasn't interested in just holding meetings for the sake of having meetings, looters it as a bush unless we expressed concern about nature's policy of containment of the russian federation. and in that regard, we do attention in some detail to the initiatives that the russian side is taken to negotiate credible legally binding security guarantees. let me remind you that we have given such guarantees to the u. s. and members of the north atlantic alliance . we are waiting responses as we have been promised to these proposals in order to continue negotiations of the senior. it would seem that those responses were given as these talks a going ahead between this meeting being announced. and now there has been a lot of chatter about how nato, driven by the us should tackle russia with sanctions, including the possibility of cutting moscow off from the swift international payment system of his don't to run back in 2014. however,

will have the latest from vienna. and the european union's foreign policy chief is in ukraine to rally support. as russia continues to mass troops on the border, and it's more bangladesh pull off, one of the biggest winds in their test cricket history. and we will be here with that story. ah, bow cassock stands president is threatening a tough response after the worst unrest in more than a decade. demonstrators, storm government buildings, the cabinet has been dismissed in a state of emergency. it's been declared. the protests were triggered by arise in the price of fuel, but there are demands for broader reforms. cateel opposite began reports. please leave a rear in context of hotels remoted in civil city and can't wait for an increase in fuel. prices have spread across the country while inclusions have food, particularly in the largest city, comedy with reports of a flyer. in gunshot theater, the mayor's office were demonstrators trying to storm the building earlier in the week. oh, would begin as to 10 seconds. fue

more on this with us to barne vienna. this was a virtual meeting held by the 13 opec members plus 10 other countries including russia. and they have taken this decision to continue to increase opec's output as they did last july, following the huge slash that they took in at 2020. as a result of the pandemic, opec decided in 2020, that to add they will cut output by 10000000 barrels of oil for day. now as of july, they've decided that they're going to slowly start to bring that number back up to make up for that deficits. they're hoping by september of this year, they will be going back to free pandemic levels of production. this is important because of course, opec provides 40 just over 40 percent of the worlds are oil supply. and this meeting today was just another reiteration of their position that they will continue to increase production of 4 of $400000.00 barrels of oil per day. for the month of february, and that will continue monthly until they meet again at their next meeting will be next month again. but by doin

>> yeah, rob is in vienna. i spoke with him this morning. on this issue, i think it's important to back up. i know we have limited time, but it's important to back up. i read this morning that the former chief of the israel defense forces, that the last administrations decision to get out of jcpoa was a strategic mistake, and it led to an unshackled iranian nuclear program. go back and read where we were a couple months before we walked in here, say december 2020. we had two dozen rockets falling at our embassy in baghdad. we were flying b-52 bombers from the united states to the middle east and back as a show of force. iran enriched uranium was at 20%. this is something we inherited, and we are not placing blame -- that's not our job, this is our responsibility, but this is not a problem we should be having. the jcpoa, whatever you want to say about it, it did put cap on iran's nuclear program through 2031. but where we are right now, given the advances of iran's nuclear program -- it was predicted when that decision was made by sun that ir

an 8th round of talks is underway in vienna. what iran wants guarantees that you, a sanctions will be lifted on iranian oil sales, missouri to rock that amongst the 8 round of the van and go see ations, put them back on the right track and a good agreement can be reached if the western parties possessed a real will an intention lifting sanctions means lifting all forms of sanction stipulated in the nuclear agreement and the sanctions that trump re imposed. and that contradict terms of the agreement. and the latter is in disputed negotiations . we demand guarantees that include not imposing any new sanctions and not re imposing sanctions after lifting them under any pretext. we see that the simplest practical model for this would be when it comes to us exporting oil and obtaining revenues through our banking system. that's an informal and indirect exchange of messages with the americans in vienna. we had good words from their delegation. but what is important for us is to see practical and serious american actions. there are such

so thank you very much to us about this or us in vienna. a palestinian man is ending $141.00 days of hunger strike after a deal was reached to release him from illegal is really detention hisham harsh was arrested without charge more than 14 months ago. his case has provoked angry protest in the occupied westbank. neither abraham is falling proceedings in ramallah, breaking his fast after 141 day hunger strike. he showed up, however, expect to be a free man by the end of february, after these really military agreed not to renew his detention. the deal was reached after talks between palestinian and israeli officials goes on factions with threatening an escalation if he died about this extended battle in which every palestinian mobilized and used all his tools was a successful, strong and influential battle through them. and through our national unity and cohesion around the prisoners and their issues, we affirm that we can achieve victory. the 40 year old father of 5 was 1st arrested, an october of 2020 and was subject to israel's policy up

the host of the talks in vienna that you have said difficult decisions have to be made both in teheran and washington in order for there to be some movement on these talks. otherwise, they could go on indefinitely. and that is something certainly the americans are now saying they cannot have. let's talk about ukraine daughter mister lincoln saying, what happens from here on it is contin an on russia, and i could stopping its aggression towards ukraine. clearly mr. oliver offs response was actually, that's not what's on the table. that's not what we're discussing. what we're discussing in his world, i guess, was your aggression in the form of nato expansion right up to the russian border. certainly, and this is part of the russian perspective is that this, there is a sense of false narrative coming from a, the american government. and that they are certainly, as the foreign minister said, they're not interested in invading ukraine. what they're interested is protecting their own borders. and they feel like there aren't coming under attack. they feel like this campaign of misinformation,

last week, we saw a diplomatic trail that crisscrossed europe, from geneva to brussels and vienna. at the end of it, the russian foreign minister, sergei lavrov, appeared to throw in the towel. "our patience," he said, "is at an end." but here we are, four days on, and the process is actually shifting up a gear. mr lavrov and antony blinken are due to meet on friday, once again in geneva. the talking, it seems, is not quite over. but the tremors of this crisis are being felt right across europe. on the baltic island of gotland, sweden is beefing up its presence, concerned about nearby russian activity and what it calls russia's direct threat to europe's security. paul adams, bbc news. president biden�*s warning on ukraine came as part of a press conference — marking his first year in office. mr biden�*s approval ratings are hovering just above forty per cent, as he faces rising inflation, a pandemic that isn't over, and narrow democratic majorities in congress. earlier i spoke to the bbc�*s washington correspondent gary o'donoghue to help us break down biden�*s powerful w

but the, with the talks through a whole this week in vienna, in geneva, in brussels, the dark yield, any success from oscar. now they say they don't want to have anymore talks because they're worthless, but they're still waiting for the response. a written response to the 2 draft trees they provide to the united states and nato. so they're still waiting for that. i think waiting for that gives a chance to consider, well, a way to step back from this crisis. why is that one of their conditions? one of the things that must has been calling for is to have ukraine. another ex, soviet countries remain out of nato. why is that so important for them? of they want to dominate the foreign policy of their neighboring states. they want to make sure that those states are under their influence. that's what this is all about. you know, are all the countries which have joy nato, since the end of the cold war did not join because neither was saying, please, because members, they joined russell, afraid of moscow's intentions. and mass girls persuade all these countries that they moscow or danger. thi

policy given the impasse of what we see in vienna and briefly what we've been seeing for a year aside from the withdrawal from afghanistan i think working to get back to the jcpoa has been the highest foreign policy priority and that hasn't happened yet. things seem to be going the other direction. >> first you have to recognize what the policy is and it's true in the obama and biden administration it's not a policy of prevention it is a policy of containment and that is a very critical difference. the policy is to prevent air on from ever developing nuclear capability. i'm not saying obama or biden [inaudible] the policy is contained. why do i say that? because if you would ask the senior members of the y administration and all the countries if you were left with only two choices and military confrontation or a nuclear armed iran which of the two scenarios is worse? for israel it is clear which one is worse. a military confrontation with iran is bad particularly because of hezbollah in the north and the danger that could lead to a larger conflict. but in the case of the u.s. under ob

in vienna, they were fumes and a lot of noise as protest is demonstrated against the vaccination and against coven restrictions. here in germany, in the city of magda burg, thousands of people took to the streets. i misunderstood line and with the police using tear gas and battens to try and disperse the crawl. there were scenes of protests in many other cities across the country, including the capital, the lin at the same time, the german hotel and restaurant association has issued a statement saying that these latest restrictions are a disaster for businesses and have a negative impact, particularly on restaurants. who rely heavily on wilkins, and they have urged the government to provide urgent assistance. the deed is, are being guided by the latest message from the world health organization stating that although the latest variant, omi called is less severe than the previous variant of delta, particularly amongst those people who have been vaccinated in no way. can it be classified as mild? just like previous variance, omicron is hospitalized people and it is killing people. in f

meanwhile, the talks in vienna have been again, not seeming to make a lot of progress, not continuing as we speak right now . meanwhile, the israeli defense minister benny gantz was in washington a couple of weeks ago and made certain requests. it was reported one of the requests he made was for -- to be expedited into the united states and that the u.s. declined. this is something that you have been focused on. given where we are, we thought it was important to delve into a lot of detail with ron about these issues. let's go with a little history before we get to today. there has been a lot of reporting and israel, here in the u.s., that given where the state of iranian nuclear escalation is, a number are claiming that it was a mistake for president trump to withdraw from the jcpoa a few years ago -- and this is something when you were ambassador, this was prime minister netanyahu's priorities, to persuade the u.s. to do that. why don't we address that issue and then we can move up to today. ron: sure. thank you. welcome to everyone on the call. when i was ambassador at the time, i s

an 8th round of talks to revive the 2015 nuclear deal is now underway in vienna. but so far it hasn't produced any tangible result. and with the health of millions of people at stake in iran, any failure could do worse than damage. it's economy. the so sir, that o 0 to run the g very reserve in brazil's amazon is home to numerous tribes you've never had contact with the outside world, but illegal hunters and fishermen and encroaching on their space. on the zeros monica young archy of reports on the fight to keep the tribe safe. steeping the amazon jungle. various indigenous leaders have joint forces to protect their livelihood. we accompanied native trackers during a week as the police, their job id valley reserve in area twice the size of japan. it's the home of 18 tribes. 11 of them have had no contact with the outside world economic wanted are this part of the river belongs to brazil where white men do as they please. but ahead of us is the indigenous giovanni territory. it's forbidden to all but us. yet we're still in danger. in the past, the threat came from

in vienna, on thursday. what russia is doing is tries to impose its agenda is stand of returning to the negotiation table. and we are state that very clearly, that we will never compromise on the right for every nation in europe to choose his own path, including what kind of security arrangements in one, sir, to be a part of early russia's deputy foreign minister suggested the u. s. had not taken seriously, his country's demands that ukraine never be allowed to join nato. that's an ominous fine by continuing to press what is a solid western red line? russia may be showing its hand that president clinton may not attend this week of talks to succeed at all, but rather to use them as a pretext for war. going a whole algae 0. let's make to rosalind jordan who is live in washington, d. c. for us, and it has recently been asked to debrief call from the deputy secretary of state, what was said, what was her assessment? wendy sherman's assessment was that to the meetings on monday, about 8 hours worth of talks with

a final stab was made at finding common ground in vienna at the organization for security and cooperation in europe, a supposedly neutral ground where and fortunately, the language from country representatives was anything but it seems that the risk of war in the always sea area is now greater than ever before. in the last 30 years, the europeans also went down the smear campaign route, following a massive cyber attack and government sites in ukraine. the eas top diplomat hinting one can figure out who is behind the strike. the hackers have not yet been identified, and while the west continues to state it is spread democracy in port security to countries, rushes foreign minister disagrees. the west went too far. let's be frank in violation of all international obligations and common sense they chose to escalate this situation. well, you see the west condemns violent actions against civilians. they condemn human rights violations. but when bloody codes are carried out by those who swear their allegiance to the west, the west embraces them. this is what happened with the ukrainian qu. many

k. prime minister repeated western warnings, the time is running out. jabari has more from vienna. there is a south korean delegation that's arrived in vienna led by the country's vice minister of foreign affairs. they are holding meetings with various parties. cor, south korea is very important in all of this because there are one of the countries that is holding on to anywhere between $7.00 and $9000000000.00 of iranian funds in their country as a result of us sanctions. iran was one of the main suppliers to south korea when it comes to oil. as a result of us sanctions in 2018 and the south koreans hasn't been able to pay or on for the purchases they've made of iranian oil. amongst other things, this is why as the delegation is here, they're holding discussions with the americans and this could be viewed as a positive step. we still don't know if they will meet with the iranians, but as the 8th round of talks continue, there is a sense that all sides really want to achieve as a result as quickly as possible. but the iranians have said that they're not going to sacrifice the resul

but there are more meetings coming up later this week in brussels and in vienna. and that's where the us says that the matter of russian troops, some 100000 reportedly of stationed on the western border across from ukraine will be taken up. and importantly, you will see all the tow ukrainian officials will be involved in those discussions . the u. s. is trying to be very careful not to speak on cubes behalf. it says that there is nothing can be done about the crisis involving ukraine without ukrainian input. certainly an important wake ahead. thank you very much for the update. rosalyn jordan live for us in washington day say the nighttime military lines you set to hold its own talks with russia on wednesday as we had from our correspondent and ahead of those discussions secretary general yann's stolen. beg again warned moscow about it's true build up. he met with ukraine's foreign minister in brussels . russia submitted to build up continuous with 10. so tulsa salva combat the read, the troops armed with the have the capabilities on friday night thought 40 minute

and then in brussels and then in vienna talking to various people. then the german foreign minister was in here and in moscow in ukraine and in russia, the natal general secretary was in berlin yesterday while lincoln was in ukraine. so there's been a lot going on, all of this is to trying to avoid a furthering of the tensions between ukraine and russia, trying to get russia from stop russia from invading ukraine from putting further pressure on. all of this will culminate in the meeting with the between blinking and the russian foreign minister law on friday in geneva as a lot of coordination that needs to be done before that meeting. so while the blinking is in europe trying to dissuade russia from invading ukraine, his boss, president biden, made some comments that raised a lot of eyebrows. let's have a listen. russia will be held accountable. if it invades, it depends on what it does. it's one thing, if it's a minor incursion, then we end up having to fight about what to do and not do it cetera. but if they actually do what they're capable of doi

the meetings wrapped up in vienna today at the organization for security and cooperation of europe and we heard a stark warning from the u.s. ambassador. >> we are facing a crisis in european security. the drum beat of war is sounding loud and the rhetoric has gotten rather shrill. we have to take this seriously. we have to prepare for the eventuality there could be an escalation. >> reporter: there is no doubt there is some concern over the frustration and anger from the russian side and in the wake of these meetings. what happens next remains to be seen. sullivan said u.s. intelligence indicates that russia has not yet made a decision whether they do plan to invade, but there was a warning from sullivan that the russians could create an excuse to invade ukraine and that he would be sharing intelligence about what that could look like in the next few hours, the next 24 hours. but what's going to happen now is officials from these meetings will go back to their capitals talking to each other, the u.s. is going to be talking to european allies as well as the russians to try to keep the

but the use foreign policy chief joseph borrow says a new deal may be possible for sandra baris, in vienna, where the talk are taking place. on january 14, 2023 european foreign ministers wrote a letter to the foreign affairs chief justice corral in which they triggered article 36 of the 2015 nuclear deal. they said they had decided to join, you take action to hold around to account for its systematic noncompliance with the j. c. t o a. the move came because the european claim are on 5th step to reduce this commitment to the nuclear deal. since the u. s. pulls out in may of 2018, was one step too far. that came 9 days earlier on january 5th, when iran said it would no longer abide by the limit set on the number of uranium enrichment centrifuges it was locked have under the deal. it was withdrawing from the last technical restriction imposed in 2015 iranian foreign minister. the time mom, it's about 3 call to us. he's moved to teacher from the state. now, here we are 2 years later and 9 months after delegate from the 6 country met for the 1st time in vienna to try and bring all slides back

immediate lifting of us sanctions crippling its economy has been one of the main talking points in vienna where terran and other countries are negotiating on how to restart the 2015 nuclear deal. and is russel sir dahl report sanctions of at a major impact on the health sector? especially those fighting rare diseases. madam ha, medina sir, has a genetic blood disorder called tele smear. she needs frequent blood transfusions, just kept going. any better for targeting our body doesn't produce blood, so we need to receive it monthly along with some specific medicines. but we haven't been able to find the medicines we need for months now, and we're slowly dying because of it. that is because she is also caught in the crossfire of global politics. find the medication in iran has been difficult since 2018. that's when the u. s. pulled out of euro's nuclear deal with world powers and green paused economic sanctions. but there is more that profess maryann from receiving proper medical care. many international firms have also stop doing business with iran, as they feared they may also be sanctione

and then moving on to the sea in vienna on thursday. and the 2nd thing to bear in mind is that they probably will be talk about ukraine in geneva today. but they'll be talking about concepts. they'll be talking about concerns and this thing to each other's concerns. looking probing for potential areas of common ground. and importantly, those american negotiators will be trying to determine russia's true intent. president putin is true intent as far as ukraine is concerned. because if we find by the end of today and going through to winston says that by the end of the week, the russian side still holding tight and steadfast to that central claim that they have made the demand for legal guarantees that ukraine will never be allowed to join nato, which is now so clearly a red line for the western powers. if russia doesn't suffer on that claim, well, they might then conclude that president putin really doesn't intend any of these talks to succeed. and is instead using them as a pretext for war, which is banks. thank you very much for the up

next month, a crowd of demonstrators marched outside austria's parliament in vienna to protest against the vote. more than 70 percent of austrians are fully vaccinated. this is dw news, you will find more on our website at dw dot come there was a collective sigh across much of america in the world exactly one year ago today when joe biden was inaugurated. as the 46th president of the united states, a sense of relief that's been replaced by the feeling. good grief today only 41 percent of americans say that biden is doing a good job. many point to the messy withdrawal from afghanistan last summer. and last night, biden's comments that some say were a green light to russia to invade you crate. today, biden's top diplomat was here in berlin to clean up the mess and to sweep away doubts that the west is all talk and no action. i'm bird. gov and berlin. this is the day ah, i think the only way out of this crisis is diplomatic, and that path can only be lead through dialogue. but in general, no matter which fast russia chooses, it will find the united states, germany and our allies united mo
