being seen as a threat that the that the u.k. will leave you on the 31st of october with no deal could have potentially have huge economic consequences the expectations among some of the hard line breaks here is that that will make the e.u. bend the knee and give in but that is also quite naive because we've heard corrector it like this before especially when it came to if you think of how the u.k. was expecting germany to handle this and thing saying that you know well germany will be pushing they'll be rooting for us and make sure that we get the best deal possible because of course germany stands a lot stands to lose a lot especially if the u.k. crashes out of the e.u. without a deal an already yesterday the. one of the of one of germany's as a biggest industry is they are. expressing their fears and concerns about the prospect of having boris johnson as the prime minister of the u.k. in the fact that he could pull the u.k. from the e.u. without a deal come the 31st of october of course for a long time the economic ties betwee

ambassador to the u.k. to provide him and the state department with similarly unvarnished views of how the british government is operating the other point and i think this is an important point is that there does not appear to be any real danger to u.s. british relations you don't see the u.s. threatening for example to downgrade diplomatic relations between the 2 countries you certainly don't see the members of the british diplomatic corps being ordered to pack up their belongings and their papers and their families and to leave the country within 72 hours that happened when the u.s. wanted to show its displeasure with the ongoing civil war in syria the embassy over in washington wyoming avenue has been empty for the past several years certainly the iranian ambassador building on massachusetts avenue here in washington has been sitting empty for more than 40 years and it's up to the state department's diplomatic corps diplomatic security i should say to make certain that no one gets into their building the

the u.k. firmly refutes iran's version of events that the tanker was in some way in violation of maritime rules collided in some way with a fishing vessel and that is the reason why it needed to be boarded and forcibly directed towards iran we heard from britain's defense secretary penny mordant who has described it as a hostile act an act that big very dramatically in the strait of homo's. this is the moment the british tanker was seized by iran's revolutionary guard in the strait of hormuz special forces dropped down on to the deck of the speeding bessel forcing it into iranian waters the 30000 ton stana imperio was on its way to saudi arabia nothing's been heard from her 23 crew since the revolutionary guard who released these images say the tanker was being escorted by a british warship to try to stop the seizure britain's ministry of defense declined to comment on the claim the detained tank is now at the center of a diplomatic storm these images were released by news agency linked to the

the u.k.'s government is fighting the court of appeal ruling that arms sales to saudi arabia are norful in the latest challenge in the long running legal battle over weapons used in the yemen war ministers are trying to stay the judgment which means they could carry on licensing arms sales to the saudis until the outcome of its appeal. last month the court said the u.k. export licensing process was wrong in law in one significant respect the government made no concluded assessments on whether the saudi led coalition had committed violations of international community area law in the past during the yemen conflict and may not to do so trade secretary liam fox was forced to hold an immediate review of almost 5000000000 pounds worth of weapons deals while this latest appeal seems to contradict fox's assurances to m.p.'s that saudi arms sales would be halted handing a review as i said earlier we disagree with the judgment and will seek permission to appeal alongside this we are carefully considerin

and u.k. reports it was apparently the naval vessel that drove off these 3 iranian boats and one thing that we could see in the near future is that the u.k. and the united states taking this as evidence and the need to deploy more navy vessels to the region to safeguard commercial ships there now or today's incident is it being seen there where you are as retaliation for britain seizure last week of an iranian oil tanker off. well the u.k. government remains a matter of speculation but of course we have to remember what happened there a british the british marines ceased an iranian super tanker full of oil that was according to u.k. authorities headed towards syria and that would be illegal because they're e.u. sanctions on the assad regime at the moment so they seize that ship iran in return said that that was an act of piracy and that there was a price to be paid so yes it appears that this incident in the gulf in the strait of hormuz was a matter of retaliation from iran now the u.k. seems

the u.k. navy's measure is tantamount to maritime piracy britain has no right to impose its own unilateral sanctions all those of the european union in an extra territorial manner against the other countries this is the very bullying policy of the us britain's foreign office said it would not respond to every single comment about the incident that emerged from iran but it reiterated its position that the action came at the request of gibraltar to halt a vessel believed to be bound for syria which indeed violates sanctions this action the rose from information giving the gibraltar government reasonable grounds to believe that the vessel the grace one was acting in breach of european union sanctions against syria now the e.u. sanctions in place prevent syrian regime from importing oil and gibraltar said it believed that grace one and its barrels of iranian oil were bound for syria however it's understood that iran has provided these documents to the u.k. proving that the vessel was transiting to

made fighter jets u.k. made bombs and u.k. made missiles have played a devastating role in creating the worst humanitarian crisis in the world and yemen it is no surprise that the government is appealing this paradox because it will do everything it can to maximize arm sales to him because for decades and decades to stage a dictatorship has been the largest buyer in the wilds of u.k. weapons the saudi led coalition says it wasn't deliberately targeting civilians but thousands have been killed the united nations says 3300000 yemenis are displaced and at least 2 thirds of the population need help in the long running lethal battle is no end in sight. coming up a play a televised link between people from ukraine and russia infuriates kiev we'll tell you why after this. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy foundation let it be an arms race in this on all sides very dramatic development the only. exists i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk. 17 min
