britain has seen one of its flagged oil tankers detained by the iranians in a tit—for—tat after britain detained an iranian shipped in gibraltar. how close do you believe we are, in that stretch of water, to a confrontation? well, i don't think we're that close to a confrontation in a very wide, conventional sense, but i'm quite clear that you could easily get an increase in skirmishing, and something accidental but very serious could happen. so you could easily see a number of iran's fast boats being sunk. you could see the iranians plant mines in retaliation. and then you could, you know, have one of the mines going off, and then you could get a serious escalation. the problem is the iranians are indeed desperate. they feel they have to do something. it doesn't excuse what they're doing, but it's an explanation. as, i've said again, and you can't repeat often enough, the power has shifted very markedly from the elected government to people like hossein salami, who is the major general in charge of the external force of the revolutionary guard, who was a politician in his own right and

britain wants to lead. the other is that the good friday agreement must adhere to and that's not just britain is saying that it's also the future members and existing existing member of the earth union republic of ireland so this is part of our european position so now we just have to bring these 2 positions together. and that would seem at 1st glance to be not particularly easy but it has to be done so that we can say that we have found a solution. see if it's. facing it from the writers now you have the both of us signalized a willingness to compromise but the basic problem remains a chance that you do not want to change the withdrawal agreement and you and prime minister are not in agreement with the change in the future cooperation gets the principles though isn't the main problem still there and it's not just about what blaming one another it's with their words and if i could also say the u.s. president was lucky looking at the g 7 suggested that russia be included in this circle are you in favor or ag

after britain's defeat at new york town, britain too would have to do the same. and in article i of the treaty of paris signed in october 1773 to mark the end of the war and coming of the peace, britain's peace commissioners begrudgingly enforced a peace agreement in which it acknowledges the said united states to be free, sovereign, and independence states. as i start to wrap up, i want to move past the dunlap broad sides and the newspaper transcriptions and the foreign language translations and turn now to another set of declarations that have been hiding in plain sight. i'm thinking here about all the subsequent declarations of independence. more than 100 of them, that rebels, separatists and state makers crafted in other parts of the world since 1776 in direct imitation of ours. that practice began quickly. by the time thomas jefferson and john adams passed away -- can someone raise their hand and tell us what date thomas jefferson and john adams passed away? july 4th, 1886, 50 years to the day since they finished their work. by the time thomas jefferson and

though and there's no deal what's that going to mean for people in britain. well i believe that it doesn't mean a lot. there will be no huge impact on the flow of goods and capital and i think that a lot of what you've heard about the dangers of a no deal drugs it is just fear mongering actually what what the. mind of people in the british politics called project fear i think that is a real thing when when we think 2 and a half years before the world has taken place there was the same kind of fear mongering actually it was assumed that britain would fall into a severe recession immediately if people voted to leave the european union and nothing of the sort happened to the country so i do not see any empirical evidence or. evidence that points in the direction that there will be an economic crisis of any kind being triggered in britain is an old you ok so everyone goes for w t o deal or britain get that now waiting in the wings of course john bolton has said well hey 1st in the queue here will be the u.k. to make deals with america and i suppose after saving f

he said britain -- a hard brexit would be entirely possible britain's -- entirely britain's fault. whatems to bee preempting many speculate boris johnson will eventually do i in october, to blame the e.u. for a no deal brexit. claire: tell us more about the substance of today's talk. armen: the french government now says no deal is its central scenario. with thahat in mind, what do the men have to talk about? the particularly problematic aspects of no deal. one thing macron will seek clarification about is the leaked british report about an end to freedom of mow -- movement, which would have implications for french and travelers on thers on euro star and so forth. fisheries is another potential flashpoint, something that could see a standoff in october and november. that is something the men will try to manage if they can. having said all that, the french presidency also does not want to be -- this to be a completetely doom laden relationship. that refers to the fact that whatever happens on october 31, france and the u.k. will work together and they will continue onbe partners in

great britain, the french empire and the spanish empire. with the united states disintegrating, there was an opportunity for european powers to take advantage. as you know, the united states had just come off a big victory in 1848 in the mexican war by adding california and the southwest, which is by no means for seeing the european powers thought the u.s. was going to wind up power and to ocean power. up theirsh shored claims to parts around the honduras nicaragua coast. all world powers the passage to the pacific is going to be key. both for europe and that united states. just as abraham lincoln is being inaugurated the spanish empire, , which had been receding in the new world -- there is no doubt he is taking advantage of the chaos in the united states to move back into the new world. this was the moment for the french. in the 1850's through a coup d'etat took power in france. he was very much committed to reestablishing a french empire, not just in algeria, but in the western hemisphere. he was not an admirer of the united states. he h

, and made it go back to britain and continue to fight. they talked about skirmishing, lose order infantry fighting, but it is something that is also good for streetfighting, for example, too. that is one of the tactical lessons they brought. it should also be acknowledged, though, i mean, my perception is that the common perception of irish immigrants in the civil war is they may have been prounion, they may not have been prounion, and just as there are many proslavery germans, there are many anti-slavery irish immigrants, but as a whole, irish immigrants were neutral to pro on the slavery question. and i think an excavation for that is completely ideological institutions from which they can -- that kind of political organization, ideological organization tended to be church-focused. when italians came to new york, they tended to be radicals, and they demanded a separate, not as a separate language, but they did not like the proslavery, ideological, and it is important to remember there were a lot of stereotypes and people, then as now, p

no time to lose for the bacon bound for britain. goods roll in and out with no customs checks, for now. you really get the sense of how every second counts. no wonder they want to know here whether britain is bluffing about a no deal, and no wonder. they say such a scenario could have such far—reaching consequences, right down to what we eat and where it comes from. that report from jenny hill. sporadic protests have broken out in indian administered kashmir, following the government's decision to strip the area of its special status. the disputed territory is under a government imposed security lockdown — but there's fear and anger as information begins to filter through. our correspondent yogita limaye has just arrived in the city of srinagar in indian kashmir, and sent this update. it's the third day that kashmir remains in lockdown, but sporadic protests have begun to break up now. in a particularly restive part of srinagar, every evening, protesters are coming out, pelting stones, shouting anti—india slogans, and security

as a matter of of law for britain this was. i suppose you would say a statement of its intention as to what it would do if it were to take over belostoma which of course it had not yet done as of november of 1917 it's going to go to whether you like that. stuff she. should have done you are if. you could be so though because your mind. show you off your royalty only 2 years after the declaration a church leader in jerusalem wrote to british prime minister lloyd george about jews in palestine trying to control holy sites. lloyd george's office had said that high invites men didn't want to do anything affecting the rights of arabs it said he simply wanted to be involved in a council to help provide refuge to jews russia and eastern europe. this exchange suggested that britain felt it had not promised a jewish state but simply a place for them to live alongside the arabs. when the league of nations set out the british mandate in. palestine in 1923 it made britain responsible for implementing the balfour declaration. as a result je

there is a problem here, because even if britain leaves without a deal on the 3ist britain leaves without a deal on the 31st of october, and the prime ministers said we will even the 3ist, ministers said we will even the 31st, deal or no deal, although we prefer a deal, a lot of the questions that will not have been resolved will simply be asked again by the eu when it comes to sitting down and trying trade talks. the notion there will be a hard brexit on the 31st, it is impossible to say whether there will be chaos, how much... or whether we will barely notice. that's right for someone of the issues, free movement of people, is one of the eu's principles, that will not end on november one. there is no mechanism to stop that. companies, businesses here have no idea what to do. i think that boris johnson, to go back to where we began, at the g7, he sits facing europe on one side and america on the other, and instead of the unified block we really have two blocks, and it is a question of where he wants to allow this country. on that point it will be interesting to see how far he progresses

that is a real challenge for britain in the next few months. and i don't think british politicians have never fully understood that relationship. in the reagan republican days, there were politicians here baffled by republicans being sympathetic to the republican cause. yes, i do think it is naive to think thatjohnson and trump considers equals to negotiate some sort of trade deal. the economies are so out of... johnson was warned, if you become too close to the us, you become an american vassal. vassal, that was a favourite word of some of the uk brexiteers. a final point, put to a northern ireland journalist on friday who had been speaking to dup politicians, and they said, we think germany are so frightened of the prospect of a recession in the eurozone that we need to get our argument in front of german politicians, they are the ones who could open this up. do you think they are right? economists have some clout to influence the government, and you are right in describing their fear. after all, german car experts to begin with are bigger to

because britain has fought a world war. it is encrypt at the end of this war. it has won a huge empire. but, it is broke. and, what is it going to do? it is looking to the american colonists. one way of doing it is to cut down on the amount of money that you spend on these indian policies. on indian diplomacy. in order to win indians from the french, they had to invest huge amounts of money in gifts to indians. because, gifts are essential to doing business in indian country and to establishing alliances. not because indians are mercenary, but because without tangible objects to demonstrate that you are serious in your commitment and pledges, it is not going to work. so now the british are broke. where can we save a bunch of money they say. hey, let's look in the indian department. now the french are gone and we do not need indian allies anymore. and jeffrey amherst the commander says, we are an empire. we did tate, we do not negotiate. that is not how the french had operated. what that amounted to for indian people is, these redcoats, who presented themselves
