Trump threatens to abandon Iran nuclear deal

The World Tonight

Available for over a year

As Donald Trump accuses Iran of violating the international deal to freeze its nuclear programme we hear reaction from Tehran and hear from a Republican Congressman who insists that the US is defending its own interests dismissing concern as "multinationalism versus respect for sovereignty". Also in the wake of the Harvey Weinstein scandal we discuss the prevalence of sexism beyond Hollywood. And as Russians mark 100 years since the Bolshevik revolution James Coomarasamy asks young people how much they know of their history.
