Iranul se întâlnește cu diplomați europeni pentru discuții nucleare reluate

acum 8 oreDistribuieSalveazăMalu CursinoBBC NewsDistribuieSalveazăEPADiscuțiile nucleare au avut loc la consulatul Iranului din Istanbul, Turcia

Diplomații iranieni s-au întâlnit cu omologii lor din Marea Britanie, Germania și Franța pentru discuții nucleare, pentru prima dată de când Israelul a lansat atacuri asupra instalațiilor nucleare ale Iranului în iunie.

Atacurile au declanșat un război de 12 zile, în care SUA au bombardat și o serie de situri nucleare ale Iranului, punând capăt brusc discuțiilor nucleare SUA-Iran.

Cele trei puteri europene care au participat la discuții, cunoscute sub numele de E3, au amenințat că vor reimpune sancțiuni Iranului dacă nu se înregistrează progrese în direcția negocierii unui nou acord nuclear până la sfârșitul lunii august.

Ministrul adjunct de externe al Iranului, Kazem Gharibabadi, a declarat că au avut o întâlnire „serioasă, sinceră și detaliată” discuții și au convenit să continue consultările.

Gharibabadi a declarat la începutul acestei săptămâni că declanșarea sancțiunilor ar fi „complet ilegală”.

Sancțiunile privind programul nuclear al Iranului au fost ridicate anterior ca urmare a acordului nuclear iranian din 2015, care a fost încheiat cu SUA, Marea Britanie, Franța, China, Rusia și Germania.

Acest lucru vine după ani de tensiuni legate de presupusele eforturi ale Iranului de a dezvolta o armă nucleară – lucru pe care Teheranul l-a negat întotdeauna.

În conformitate cu termenii acordului, Iranul a fost de acord să își limiteze activitățile nucleare și să permită intrarea inspectorilor internaționali.

<p SUA s-au retras din acord în 2018, în timpul primului mandat al președintelui Donald Trump, liderul afirmând că acordul a făcut prea puțin pentru a împiedica Iranul să creeze o cale către o bombă nucleară. Odată cu retragerea sa, toate sancțiunile SUA au fost reimpuse Iranului.

Iranul a ripostat încălcând din ce în ce mai mult restricțiile.

Regatul Unit, Germania și Franța au amenințat că vor reimpune sancțiuni severe Iranului dacă acesta nu este de acord să își limiteze programul nuclear, termenul limită fiind stabilit pentru octombrie.

La începutul discuțiilor vineri, directorul general al Agenției Internaționale pentru Energie Atomică (AIEA) a declarat că Iranul a indicat că ar fi gata să reia conversațiile la nivel tehnic cu privire la programul său nuclear.

Rafael Grossi a menționat, de asemenea, că Iranul trebuie să fie transparent în ceea ce privește instalațiile și activitățile sale.

„Trebuie să ascultăm Iranul în ceea ce privește…” „despre ceea ce consideră că ar trebui să fie precauțiile care trebuie luate”, a adăugat el.

Purtătorul de cuvânt al ministerului de externe al Iranului, Esmaeil Baghaei, a declarat presei de stat iraniene că țările E3 ar trebui să folosească întâlnirea pentru a „compensa politicile lor anterioare neconstructive”.

De asemenea, el a acuzat cele trei țări că justifică „încălcarea legii și agresiunea” prin susținerea atacurilor americano-israeliene din iunie, adăugând că Iranul va protesta oficial cu privire la poziția lor în timpul discuțiilor actuale.

În iunie, parlamentul iranian a suspendat cooperarea cu organismul de supraveghere nucleară al ONU după ce tensiunile cu Israelul și SUA au atins un punct culminant.

Acest lucru s-a întâmplat după ce Israelul a lansat atacuri în Iran pe 13 iunie, la care Teheranul a răspuns cu atacuri cu rachete și drone.

SUA, unul dintre cei mai puternici aliați ai Israelului, a acordat apoi Iranului o fereastră de două săptămâni pentru a relua relațiile diplomatice.

În această perioadă, pe 20 iunie, diplomați din Germania, Franța și Marea Britanie s-au întâlnit cu Iranul pentru discuții la Geneva în scopul dezescaladării.

Ministrul iranian de Externe, Abbas Araghchi, a declarat apoi că țara sa este „pregătită” să se întâlnească din nou cu reprezentanții E3.

Dar, după discuțiile de la Geneva, Washingtonul a lansat propriul atac asupra instalațiilor nucleare ale Iranului. Președintele Trump a declarat că operațiunea, cunoscută sub numele de „Operațiunea Ciocanul de la Miezul Nopții”, a „distrus” Capacitățile nucleare ale Iranului.

O evaluare a serviciilor secrete americane publicată în iunie a sugerat că atacurile SUA nu au distrus programul nuclear al țării și probabil l-au întârziat doar cu câteva luni.

'All the people are hungry': Voices from Gaza on desperate lack of food

All week across the BBC we've been hearing from people in Gaza about their lives as food supplies are restricted leading to malnourishment and starvation.

The BBC is not allowed to report from inside Gaza – because the Israeli government won't allow us – so we rely on trusted freelancers to provide us with material. But this week news organisations – including the BBC – warned that the lack of food means those freelancers are increasingly unable to feed themselves and their families.

The Israeli government, which controls the entry of all supplies into Gaza, says starvation is not its fault and blames Hamas for stealing food. Most international aid organisations say it is Israel that is failing the population. As the occupying power under international law Israel has a legal responsibility to protect the population from hunger and starvation.

We've collated the stories of some of those who have spoken to us and images from the week – this report contains images of malnourished children.

220 MPs call for Starmer to recognise Palestinian state

2 hours agoShareSaveSam FrancisPolitical reporterShareSaveReuters

More than a third of MPs have signed a letter to Sir Keir Starmer calling for the UK to recognise a Palestinian state.

Some 220 MPs from nine political parties have backed the call – more than half of them Labour – arguing that UK recognition would send a "powerful" message and a vital step toward a two-state solution.

The letter piles pressure on the prime minister after France committed to recognising a Palestinian statehood within months.

In an earlier statement after an emergency phone call with French President Emmanuel Macron and Germany's Friedrich Merz, Sir Keir said recognising Palestinian statehood would have to be part of a "wider plan which ultimately results in a two-state solution".

In his statement, Sir Keir said: "Alongside our closest allies, I am working on a pathway to peace in the region, focused on the practical solutions that will make a real difference to the lives of those that are suffering in this war.

"That pathway will set out the concrete steps needed to turn the ceasefire so desperately needed, into a lasting peace.

"Recognition of a Palestinian state has to be one of those steps. I am unequivocal about that.

"But it must be part of a wider plan which ultimately results in a two-state solution and lasting security for Palestinians and Israelis."

On Friday evening, Sir Keir said the government would "pull every lever" to get food and life saving support to Palestinians, and evacuate children "who need urgent medical assistance".

"This humanitarian catastrophe must end," he added in a post on X. He also said in a video statement the same day that the UK would play a role in air-dropping aid to Palestinians, following Israel's acceptance of the plan.

"We are already working urgently with the Jordanian authorities to get British aid on to planes and into Gaza," he said.

UK, France and Germany call on Israel to 'immediately lift restrictions on flow of aid' to Gaza

French pledge to recognise Palestine is a gamble – so will Starmer follow suit?

One in five children in Gaza City is malnourished, UN aid agency says

A joint statement from the leaders of UK, France and Germany, following their call does not mention Palestinian statehood.

But it said all three countries "stand ready to take further action to support an immediate ceasefire and a political process that leads to lasting security and peace for Israelis, Palestinians and the entire region".

The statement is critical of the Israeli government, demanding an end to aid restrictions and warning the "humanitarian catastrophe that we are witnessing in Gaza must end now".

The statement also stresses Hamas must be disarmed and "have no role in the future of Gaza".

The letter comes after the UK and 27 other countries condemned the "drip feeding of aid and the inhumane killing of civilians" seeking food and water in Gaza.

Israel, which controls the entry of all supplies into the Palestinian territory, has repeatedly said that there is no siege and blames Hamas for cases of malnutrition.

Israel's foreign ministry rejected the countries' statement, saying it was "disconnected from reality and sends the wrong message to Hamas".

According to the UN human rights office, more than 1,000 Palestinians have been killed by the Israeli military while trying to get food aid over the past two months.

Israel has said its troops have only fired warning shots and that they do not intentionally shoot civilians.

Urmărește cele mai importante știri

The letter has been signed by 131 Labour MPs, including senior figures like former minister Liam Byrne and committee chair Ruth Cadbury.

Lib Dem Leader Sir Ed Davey, former Tory minister Kit Malthouse and Conservative Sir Edward Leigh – Parliament's longest serving MP – have also signed.

SNP, Greens, Plaid Cymru, SDLP and independents were among those who signed the letter.

The letter argued that a Parliament has held a "cross-party consensus for decades" on recognising Palestinian statehood as part of a "two-state solution".

While recognition alone would not end the suffering in Gaza, "British recognition of Palestine would be particularly powerful" given its history in the region, the MPs say.

Labour MP Sarah Champion, who chairs the international development select committee and who organised the letter, said a two-state solution "remains the only viable proposal to secure a lasting peace for the region".

"Recognition would send a powerful symbolic message that we support the rights of the Palestinian people, that they are not alone and they need to maintain hope that there is a route that leads to lasting peace and security for both the Israeli and the Palestinian people," she added.

Last month, about 60 MPs reportedly signed a letter to Foreign Secretary David Lammy, and a motion in Parliament was signed by 110 MPs.

In 2014, the House of Commons passed a non-binding motion calling on the government to recognise a Palestinian state alongside Israel, which was backed by an overwhelming majority of MPs.

Most countries – about 139 in all – formally recognise a Palestinian state, although many European nations and the United States say they will only do so as part of moves towards a long-term resolution to the conflict.

Spain, Ireland and Norway formally took the step last year, hoping to exert diplomatic pressure to secure a ceasefire in Gaza.

At the United Nations (UN), Palestinian representatives have limited rights to participate in UN activity, and the territory is also recognised by various international organisations, including the Arab League.

Sceptics argue recognition would largely be a symbolic gesture unless questions over the leadership and extent of a Palestinian state are addressed first.

Meeting over between US official and Ghislane Maxwell, who will 'welcome any relief', lawyer says

2 hours agoShareSaveMadeline HalpertBBC News, New YorkShareSaveWatch: Ghislaine Maxwell's lawyer: A "good day" for his client after DOJ questioning

A second day of meetings between a senior US justice department official and Jeffrey Epstein's associate Ghislaine Maxwell has concluded with "no asks and no promises", her lawyer says.

"This is not a situation where we are asking for anything in return for testimony or anything like that," Maxwell's attorney David Markus said on Friday. "Of course, everybody knows Ms. Maxwell would welcome any relief."

US President Donald Trump was asked on Friday whether he would consider giving Maxwell clemency. He said he was allowed to do so but had "not thought" about it.

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche has said he would reveal what he learned from Maxwell "at the appropriate time".

Watch: Trump wants Epstein focus to shift: "I never went to the island"

Pressure has been growing on Trump officials recently to release files related to Epstein, the late convicted paedophile financier, after the president's pledges to do so while campaigning last year.

In his latest comments, Trump suggested the renewed focus on Epstein was the result of an effort by opposition Democrats to distract from his achievements in office.

The interest has returned Maxwell, 63, who helped Epstein abuse young girls, to the spotlight. Her meetings with Mr Blanche took place in Tallahassee, Florida, where she is serving a 20-year sentence for sex trafficking.

Mr Markus told the BBC's US partner CBS News that the two met for three hours on Friday and that Maxwell answered every question "honestly, truthfully, to the best of her ability".

"She answered every one of them," he said earlier. "She never did say 'I'm not going to answer', never declined."

Mr Markus previously told reporters he was "thankful" that Blanche had come to ask Maxwell questions. "It's the first time the government did it. So it was a good day."

In a short post on X on Thursday, Blanche wrote: "Today, I met with Ghislaine Maxwell, and I will continue my interview of her tomorrow. The Department of Justice will share additional information about what we learned at the appropriate time."

Blanche said earlier this week that he planned to speak to Maxwell about any information she had on other people who might have been helped by Epstein to sexually abuse girls.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, a Democrat and fierce Trump critic, took issue with the fact that Trump sent Blanche, his former personal lawyer turned federal prosecutor, to interview Maxwell ahead of her potential public testimony.

"The conflict of interest is glaring. It stinks of high corruption," he said on X.

• What do we know about the Epstein files?
• White House pushes back after reports Trump is named in Epstein files
• Accuser says 'rollercoaster' of Epstein saga is a 'real weight' on victims

In a post on Truth Social late on Thursday, Trump said the renewed focus on Epstein was a "SCAM" and a "Democrat CON JOB", and accused Schumer's party of trying to "distract and obfuscate" from the achievements of the first six months of his second term in office.

On Wednesday, the Wall Street Journal reported that Attorney General Pam Bondi informed Trump during a May briefing that his name appeared in justice department documents related to Epstein.

Trump and Epstein were friends before, according to the president, they fell out in the early 2000s.

The White House pushed back, dismissing the WSJ story as "fake news".

Urmărește cele mai importante știri

But an unnamed White House official told the Reuters news agency they were not denying that Trump's name appears in the documents.

The official pointed to Epstein files disclosed months earlier by the justice department that had included Trump.

Being named in the documents is not evidence of any criminal activity, nor has Trump ever been accused of wrongdoing in connection with the Epstein case.

Watch: How are Americans reacting to Trump's handling of the Epstein files?

While campaigning for the presidency last year, Trump had promised to release such files about the well-connected sex offender.

But his supporters have since grown frustrated with the administration's handling of the issue, including its failure to deliver a rumoured "client list" of Epstein. In a memo earlier this month, the justice department and FBI said there was no such list.

Epstein died in a New York prison cell in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges, following an earlier conviction for soliciting prostitution from a minor. His death was ruled a suicide.

In the years since, conspiracy theories about the nature of his crimes and his death itself have proliferated.

On Wednesday, a sub-committee of the US House of Representatives voted to subpoena the justice department for the files, which must be signed off by the committee chairman.

Republicans on the House Oversight Committee have also subpoenaed Maxwell to testify before the panel remotely from prison on 11 August.

House Speaker Mike Johnson has warned that Maxwell – who for years helped Epstein groom and sexually abuse girls – cannot be trusted to provide accurate testimony.

Maxwell's lawyer, Markus, previously told the BBC the concerns were "unfounded" and that if she chose to testify, rather than invoke her constitutional right to remain silent, "she would testify truthfully, as she always has said she would".

Last week, the justice department asked a federal judge to release years-old grand jury testimony related to a 2006 Florida investigation into Epstein, but a federal judge in the state on Wednesday declined to make the documents public.

Aproape o treime dintre oamenii din Gaza nu mănâncă de zile întregi, avertizează programul alimentar al ONU

Acum 23 de minuteDistribuieSalveazăMaia DaviesBBC NewsDistribuieSalveazăEPAÎngrijorarea internațională a crescut săptămâna aceasta, odată cu avertismentele că foametea a cuprins Gaza

Aproape una din trei persoane din Gaza petrece zile întregi fără să mănânce, a avertizat programul de ajutor alimentar al ONU.

„Malnutriția este în creștere, 90.000 de femei și copii având nevoie urgentă de tratament”, a declarat Programul Alimentar Mondial (PAM) într-un comunicat către agenția de știri AFP.

Avertismentele privind foametea în Gaza s-au intensificat săptămâna aceasta. Alte nouă persoane au murit de malnutriție vineri, potrivit ministerului sănătății din teritoriu, condus de Hamas, ajungând la 122 de astfel de decese.

Israelul, care controlează intrarea tuturor proviziilor în Gaza, spune că nu există nicio restricție privind intrarea ajutoarelor în teritoriu și învinovățește Hamas pentru orice malnutriție.

Un oficial israelian din domeniul securității a declarat vineri că lansările de ajutoare din aer în Gaza ar putea fi permise în următoarele zile – lucru pe care agențiile de ajutor l-au avertizat anterior că este o modalitate ineficientă de a aduce provizii în Gaza.

În timp ce presa locală a relatat că Emiratele Arabe Unite și Iordania vor efectua ultimele lansări, un înalt oficial iordanian a declarat pentru BBC că armata sa nu a primit încă permisiunea Israelului pentru a face acest lucru.

ONU a descris această mișcare drept o „distragere a atenției către inacțiune” din partea guvernului israelian.

Acțiunea a venit pe fondul unei îngrijorări internaționale crescânde cu privire la condițiile umanitare din Gaza.

Vineri, Germania, Franța și Regatul Unit au cerut Israelului să „ridice imediat restricțiile privind fluxul de ajutoare” în teritoriu.

Într-o declarație comună, acestea au cerut încetarea imediată a „catastrofei umanitare la care asistăm în Gaza” și a războiului în sine, adăugând că Israelul trebuie să „își respecte obligațiile în temeiul dreptului internațional umanitar”.

„Reținerea asistenței umanitare esențiale pentru populația civilă este inacceptabilă” Citiți declarația.

Secretarul general al ONU, António Guterres, a declarat că nu poate „explica nivelul de indiferență și inacțiune pe care îl vedem la prea mulți în comunitatea internațională – lipsa de compasiune, lipsa de adevăr, lipsa de umanitate”.

Adresându-se adunării globale Amnesty International, el a spus că peste 1.000 de palestinieni au fost uciși în timp ce încercau să acceseze alimente din 27 mai – când Fundația Umanitară Gaza (GHF), susținută de SUA și Israel, a început să distribuie provizii ca alternativă la sistemul condus de ONU.

‘Sunt atât de obosit”: Mama unui bebeluș înfometat din Gaza vorbește cu BBC

Un contractor american de securitate care a lucrat pentru GHF în mai și iunie 2025 a declarat pentru BBC vineri că a fost „fără îndoială… martor la crime de război” în acea perioadă.

Anthony Aguilar a spus că a văzut IDF și contractori americani folosind muniție reală, artilerie, proiectile de mortar și foc de tancuri asupra civililor la punctele de distribuție a alimentelor.

Soldatul în retragere a spus: „În întreaga mea carieră, nu am fost martor la nivelul de brutalitate și utilizare a forței fără discriminare și inutile împotriva unei populații civile până când nu am fost în Gaza, la mâna IDF și a contractorilor americani.”

În răspunsul său, GHF a spus că afirmațiile – care au venit de la „un fost contractor nemulțumit care a fost concediat pentru abatere de la lege acum o lună” – au fost „categoric false”.

Președintele SUA, Donald Trump, a declarat că Hamas „nu a vrut cu adevărat să facă o înțelegere”.

„Cred că vor să moară”, a spus el.

Hamas și-a exprimat surprinderea față de remarcile SUA.

Un oficial de rang înalt al Hamas a declarat, de asemenea, pentru corespondentul BBC pentru Gaza că mediatorii au informat că negocierile grupului nu au eșuat și a spus că delegația israeliană urmează să se întoarcă la Doha săptămâna viitoare.

Israelul a lansat un război în Gaza ca răspuns la atacul condus de Hamas asupra sudului Israelului din 7 octombrie 2023, în care aproximativ 1.200 de persoane au fost ucise și alte 251 au fost luate ostatice.

Peste 59.000 de persoane au fost ucise în Gaza de atunci, potrivit ministerului sănătății condus de Hamas.

Israelul a impus o blocadă totală a livrărilor de ajutoare la începutul lunii martie și și-a reluat ofensiva militară împotriva Hamas două săptămâni mai târziu, prăbușind o armistițiu de două luni. A declarat că dorește să pună presiune pe grup pentru a-i elibera pe ostaticii israelieni rămași.

Deși blocada a fost parțial relaxată după aproape două luni, pe fondul avertismentelor privind o foamete iminentă din partea experților globali, penuria de alimente, medicamente și combustibil s-a agravat.

Majoritatea populației din Gaza a fost strămutată de mai multe ori și se estimează că peste 90% din locuințe sunt avariate sau distruse.

Joi, Franța a anunțat că va recunoaște oficial un stat palestinian în septembrie – o mișcare care a înfuriat Israelul și principalul său aliat, SUA.

O zi mai târziu, peste o treime dintre parlamentarii britanici au semnat o scrisoare adresată prim-ministrului Keir Starmer, cerând Regatului Unit să urmeze exemplul.

Însă Sir Keir a indicat că o astfel de mișcare nu ar fi iminentă – ar trebui să facă parte dintr-un „plan mai amplu care să ducă în cele din urmă la o soluție cu două state” – un stat palestinian alături de Israel.
