Given that these 3 mints countries the us russia and france have neglected this problem for nearly 30 years its unacceptable that they are involved in a search for a ceasefire in the face of these negative developments that came to surface in recent days but if something is wanted the invaders should leave these lands in order to achieve a solution the true gains or losses being made on the battlefield you know this Armenian Military video suggests its forces are resisting and in some cases retaking lost positions but what is known is that the violence continues to injure and kill civilians in the town of marjah tonight on thursday as ery shelling a few 102 french journalists from the moment one is now Critical Condition for a steelworker out is here.

Britains exit from the European Union might have just become even more complicated formal talks to hammer out a trade deal by december 31st deadline are set to conclude on friday but now the e. U. Is launching legal action against the u. K. Of a plans to breach parts of the brics it divorce agreement a letter of formal notice has been sent to the British Government which has a month to now respond it could eventually lead to a case in the European Court of justice the disagreement centers around a bill in the British Parliament which would violate International Law if passed it could ignore trade rules involving Northern Ireland brics it is one of the topics that leaders from the bloc of discussed during a summit that is taking place in brussels this morning the commission has decided to send a letter formal notice to the u. K. Government this is the 1st step in an infringement procedure. The letter invites the u. K. Government to send its observations within a month. And besides this the commission will continue to work hard towards a full and timely implementation of the Withdrawal Agreement we stand by our commitments out there as paul brennan has more on this now from westminster. The last line of the lane statement i thought was important we stand by our commitments she said and i think that goes to the crux of the exhaust ration that the European Union is feeling having seen the british sides in the negotiations essentially go back on the preagreed terms of the Withdrawal Agreement and having given the british 3 weeks to amend the internal markets bill and by the end of september with take out those controversial clauses the fact that they didnt meant it was inevitable that on the 1st of october underlaying would have to come out with this statement whether it will inevitably mean a day in court is by no means a foregone conclusion there are plenty of ways that this can be avoided 1st of all the british can relent and one route is through the agreements of the Free Trade Agreement before the end of the transition period and the fact that theyre still talking theyre still negotiating in brussels i think is a good sign whether they can do it in time though is another matter the british have set a deadline of the 15th of october the European Union i think believes thats unrealistic and things early to mid november is more likely but the fact that theyre still talking i think is a positive sign and its not to get an absolute foregone conclusion that the 2 sides will face each other in some massive day in court. Aiding russian opposition figure alexina valley is accused president not in a position of ordering his poisoning of ali was released from about in hospital last week after treatment for a nerve agent attack he collapsed on a fly in russias siberia region in august and an interview with german media on thursday vali claimed putin was behind the attack the kremlin has repeatedly denied any involvement. More than 80 people as been arrested in hong kong after defying a ban on protests erast came during Chinas National Day holiday which marks the founding of the peoples republic 71 years ago adrian brown has more. Under the shadow of covert 19 and deepening concerns over a new security law this was a subdued national day for many people here but at a ceremony attended by hong kongs political elite the territories leader kerry lam said the legislation had brought stability for host family over the past 3 months the plain truth is and it is obvious to see that stability has been restored to society while National Security has been safeguarded under people can continue to enjoy their basic rights and freedoms in accordance with the law. Some not on the guest list try to stage a demonstration outside the venue. A protest that was quickly extinguished by police. On a day when they were braced for trouble riot officers sealed off a busy shopping area ready to act quickly to stamp out any signs of unrest theyd earlier denied permission for a march citing covert 19 and the potential for violence you cannot have well organized that lead today but i think most of the hong kong people will come at this with to express their anger. There were many arrests taking to more than 10000 the number of people detained in protests since last june the combined effect of the new security law plus social distancing measures means weve seen no repeat of the mass protests of a year ago conventional demonstrating in hong kong is now effectively over with the movement behind the protests continues so people have had to become more creative in how they protest like displaying the newspaper most critical of the government there was some overt resistance with heckling. And chanting of Pro Independence slogans. In the Chinese Capital beijing the mood was very different not a mosque in sight at a ceremony in Tiananmen Square a mask of the ring that would be hard to imagine in many other countries today and a reminder of how life in china is returning to normal a weeklong holiday is likely to be a test though of the countrys success in controlling the virus adrian brown aljazeera hong kong.

That that that part of the country and its population have been neglected over dk thats no Development Nothing they will lift out with poverty and they have been taking care of themselves for decades and thats why be indifferent to whats happening in the rest of the country but now when be for it is when the police force they adopt such violent violent means to deal with those that part of the population and they feel personally insulted and im afraid whats coming up is going to be worse. So i have for you on the program all special cases rising you dont downs in fresh work from home or has european nations rattled by strengthening coronavirus such.

Well now facebook has taken further steps to prevent its platforms are being exploited in the run up to the us election political ads that seek to deal with just some lies the result of been banned from the facebook and instagram platforms they include articles that suggest theres widespread voting fraud or ads that attack a particular method of voting during tuesdays televised debate with democratic challenger joe biden president all trumps at the election in november will be rigged. But questions are also still being raised about the president S Performance during that debate on tuesday particularly his response to questions over his position on White Supremacy came up again at thursdays press briefing at the white house so lets get out of there is can really help it because she is across the story kimberly how did the white house approach it today. Well if you thought the 1st president ial debate was bad you should have seen the White House Press briefing today i was in it and had the opportunity to hear what it times was. Difficult to hear both question and answer as reporters and the press secretary kind of talked on top of each other and heres why that happened the one of the reporters in fact the fox News Reporter in the Briefing Room asked if the press secretary kaley mcenaney would definitively on ambiguously and without the flexion. Condemn White Supremacy and the k. K. K. Because the feeling is in the United States that the president has kind of been on both sides of the fence on this issue so to set the matter straight they were asking for a very firm clear declarative statement the press secretary wouldnt do this instead she referred to the president s statements including his statement in the debate where when asked to condemn he said sure but then went on to tell a group known as the proud boys to stand by or stand down so this was where the point of contention went back and forth between reporters saying that the president s record on this is mixed but the White House Press secretary once again refused to have kind of a definitive answer the one that reporters were looking for and thats what led to the conflict and the hostilities really how the president. Well it could hurt the president in that this is an america thats divided and right now the president seems to be playing both sides its very clear that this president is looking to try and win over voters of color what hes done is hes tried to say look at before the pandemic we had historically low unemployment for key minority groups latinos africanamericans but the problem is they want to see this clear declarative statement they feel the president has not done that the press secretary had the opportunity and also failed to do so and so what the president now really is that risk of is maybe alienating both groups the both groups he is trying to attract that being those that would support those type of policies which many would say are racist and those that are voters of color so 2 this is a president thats behind in the polls by last count it was by 8 percent he needs every voter in order to try and hang on to votes he has hes at risk of losing the ones hes trying to attract thank you i went house correspondent can we can bully.
