two more students from greenfield were killed after dorothy. eventually, the remaining abductees were released after the parents paid the kidnappers 150 million naira. that's $360 , 000. but nasir el—rufai, the governor of kaduna state, is refusing to pay ransoms, a policy which only seems to have emboldened the kidnappers. they have decided that they have to bring this state government to its knees by concentrating their attacks in this state. so you think that one of the reasons why they may be targeting the states is because you've made it clear that you won't pay ransoms? yes. do you think then that by making that statement, you're putting your citizens, your residents of kaduna state, at greater risk? not necessarily. i think, in the long run, or even in the medium term, it actually makes the state safer. we still have kidnappers, we have individuals being kidnapped, we even have attempted kidnap of students, they have been successful in two cases, but not on the kind of scale you've seen in other states. here in kaduna just last week, t

we did hear from the us ambassador linda thomas greenfield as well. she reiterated jo biden's point that the united states is ready to return to compliance as so long as iran does the same. those were her words. she course, it was the united states under president trump in 2018 who backed out of the deal. and it was in 2018. and then in 2019 that iran began ignoring its responsibilities under the deal and violating its restrictions. so what iran can accelerate its nuclear program and slow walked diplomacy is what linda thomas greenfield had to say. it's one thing to say that you want to return to the deal, but you can't do that and keep stalling. you need to show some good faith. of course iran, i'm sure we'll have a different way of looking at things and they are expected to speak as well. so we will update you as soon as we hear from them. thank you very much. kristin salumi at united nations. you're watching al jazeera life from london much more still a had a post mortem on an nfl player who shot dead 6 people in april as found. he had a brain dise
