We dont want to be sure. Coming up on the program the kremlin. Is working with. Him in his 1st interview since coming. Home. Just after 10 pm in beirut in sofia here in moscow this thursday october the 2nd welcome to your 2 International Im new. Lets begin in the south caucasus on the latest from the territorial feud between armenia and there is already been 5 days of intense fighting with both nations rejecting calls for a cease fire these are the latest pictures on their meaning inside filmed by video agency ruptly as you can see rocket launchers and other head. Weaponry are lined up along the frontier in a well local reporters are being caught in the crossfire cameraman from an armenian t. V. Channel was severely injured during a shelling these are pictures of his car 2 french journalists also injured while covering the conflict are being treated in hospital. Reports now on the impact on local communities. Nagornokarabakh is sandwiched between the 2. And as they are by john but as commanders in chief are deploying platoon after platoon to the frontline its often civilians who end up in the crossfire on both sides were in a small town in the disputed nagornokarabakh region the frontline is about 5 to 7 kilometers that way and is there but johnny shell flew from over there and made this crater and well that was a bust staying right here has already been cleared the debris and it was bustling with people as a result because of the strike this strike killed 2 people and 5 more were wounded all of them civilians this is no military complex its just a building just a house where you live and in fact im being told that these these areas are being shelled relentlessly even though the closest military position is about 3 to 4 kilometers away that way what you what youre hearing right now is them firing in fact we could hear just minutes ago a u. S. V and sometimes even see it as it was making circles above us it was not in armenia and it was in azerbaijan one so this is one of the places where it is as hoarse as it gets in the going to care about their own many places that have it worse than the town of martinique within the 60 minutes that we were filming there we had artillery infantry drones all of them had their deadly say. If you would when you move you do this through. Air raid sirens and the buzz of drones have become the terrifying soundtrack to this war in the gorn a cab back and this frontline town has enduring bombs all calibers this is whats left of the round that fell and this backyard its really heavy and well im being told its about 160 millimeters in caliber which makes it a truly formidable project and you can see the amount of damage that it did here for instance here used to be the gates well they are now completely gone both sides are ready to fight to the bush rend both sides have the fervid support of their populations sharing an underlying belief that its them fighting for the right cause and not the enemy with all the horrors that have already haunted this land this war shows that the you all grievances have only deepened and weve done of reporting from the green a care about. Of the nagornokarabakh conflict as well as several border disputes which arose after the collapse of the soviet union the area broke away from us or by shannon 1830. 00 itself independent however the enclave populated mainly by armenians is not widely recognized as a sovereign state armenia and azerbaijan accuse each other of starting the latest hostilities. We have only one condition that armenia leaves our lands completely and immediately this is fairly if the armenian government complies with this the fighting will stop there will be no bloodshed there will be peace peace will come to our region. I believe the Armenian Army can secure a country and the selfdefense forces of the Golden Corral bark or successfully protecting their region from a political standpoint i believe its very important for us that International Partners know how and who started this military action well despite there was uncompromising remarks there is widespread on knees in both armenia and azerbaijan over the deadly conflict we asked people in both countries how they feel about the escalation. Of needs as an armenian i do not want to talk about who is right or wrong but i would like those issues to be resolved through negotiations and not force. I dont like what is happening many people i know are now going to the front line we dont want blood to be sure we want everything to end peacefully but i am afraid there is no chance to talk about peace at the moment we must reclaim our lands. I fought in the 1st war and in 2016 nowadays people go to the front line. When the shelling will come down then we will be needed there we used to it this is our homeland we have nowhere to go another alarming element to the conflict russia and france both say there are indications of extremist militants being brought in from the middle east to fight back arties only a trunk or breaks down the findings. These arent just media reports it is the french president and manual macron making it clear officially that hes got the information that armed fighters from syria are engaged in the battlefield in the door in a car about heres what exactly came from the french leader. Today we have information with certainty that indicates that militants from to how does groups who left the field of combat and syria to rejoin the field of calm but im carol soon after mr mccraw on the Russian Foreign ministry followed up and said that they have similar information as well which follows their own statement from wednesday when the Russian Diplomats warned of armed militants being moved from syria and libya to the call flags own in nagornokarabakh but officials in moscow for now are refracting from pointing out who the foreign militants are fighting for i can tell you that the government of us here by john is saying that there is no way that some kind of fighters from outside could be on the battlefield together with their army however the armenian side has previously blamed but who along with allies turkey for doing just that and theyre actually saying that turkey and azerbaijan are exploiting terrorists to try and win the battle against the Armenian Army now in the meantime in a rare display of unity that doesnt always happen with Many International conflicts the president s of the u. S. Russia and france came out with a joint statement in which they are urged the governments of armenia and azerbaijan to urgently lay down arms and come back to negotiating table without any preconditions but i can tell you that the turkish. Baird on pretty much destroyed this statement by saying that the 3 countries have pretty much failed in their attempts to do something to the crisis over the decades you should learn. The fact that america russia and france known as the minsk trio looking for ceasefire in the face of these negative Development Just because they have been equipped to this problem for nearly 30 years is unacceptable. On the other hand we are hearing from russian in turkish diplomats that for example. Foreign minister perhaps chose d a bit more of a diplomatic approach to this we know that. Are in touch over this and they are ready to coordinate their peace efforts thats how they are. The kremlin spokesman to me cough has accused alexina volley of working with the cia prompting an angry response from the russian opposition activists who says hes going to ask of it follows in of only in an interview with german media the love him or putin poisoned him or tease peter all of our reports from berlin. Alexina valmy used this interview to the german news magazine beagle to thank the german people and in particular angle america for the help peter received german chancellor visited mist in the valley secretly while he was in the shot at a hospital here in berlin in the interview mist in the valley pulls no punches about who he thinks is behind his alleged poisoning he points that finger of blame firmly at russia and directly at president Vladimir Putin the kremlin has responded to this kremlin Spokes PersonDmitri Peskov saying the claims made against me if britain against russia were unacceptable and also accused Foreign Intelligence Services of working with mr novell me i claim that putin is behind the crime and i have no alternative versions of what happened i dont say that to flatter myself but on the basis of fact the most important fact is novacek the order to use a manufacture it can only have come from 2 men the head of the f. S. B. Or of the Foreign Intelligence Service the s. V. R. Development and western Intelligence Services are working with him in particular the cia we believe his accusations against the russian president are groundless and unacceptable his interview reveals that he thinks hes as important as the leader of a state but the real rivals at that level are quite different people germany says tests that were carried out show traces of novacek were found now the same type of tests that were carried out on alexina family in the city of almsgiving russia where he 1st received medical treatment well they showed no sign of any such poisoning alexina valise team sent acquired a bottle from a hotel room that hed been staying in in the siberian city of tomsk this bottle was then sent with other things here to germany where tests were carried out on it and that is where the novacek was found now theres a lot of questions about how that bottle got from a hotel room to. Here in in germany and how those tests were carried out all of those remain unanswered its important course because the whole idea that he was report that he was poisoned with novacek nerve agent hangs on the results of those tests now the russian prosecutors have sent 3 requests to berlin for the sharing of information relating to those tests and others that were carried out all mist in the valley so far all of that has fallen on deaf ears well brett you sort of use that we turn to the o p c w which unfortunately was playing for time and then told us we need to go back to berlin you can you believe that when we were 1st appealing to bill and it directed our communications to the p. C. W this is a vicious circle it is illogical absent and everyone understand it or go back to the interviewing alexina violently says the russian made attempts to keep him in the country once he was in hospital in siberia i think they were determined not to let me out of the country which is why they publicly stated that i was not fit for transport they waited for me to die in my eyes the chief medical cost bittle is worse than the Intelligence Officers who kill people for them killing is at least their job or previously Russian Foreign minister Sergei Lavrov it said that the very facts alexei the valley was alive right now was down to the quick thinking in the professionalism of the pilot that made the Emergency Landing the power medics that arrived on the scene at the airport in almost the medical professionals that gave him treatment in hospital in the siberian city no one is supposed to children so the impeccable work for pilots doctors and paramedics is presented as a lucky coincidence they dont even admit that we acted in a proper way our western partners look at us with the arrogance because we dare to doubt their correctness and professionalism thats why they doubt the professionalism of our doctors and investigators alexina valley was discharged from hospital. Here in berlin last week he had spent 2 weeks in an induced coma and is currently undergoing physio therapy following that he has said that he wants to return to russia as soon as its possible. Meanwhile and russia has invited experts from the Global Chemical weapons watchdog to visit the country as part of their probe into than a felony case Foreign Ministry spokeswoman maria so however said russia hopes for a productive cooperation with the old p. C. W. To quote shed some light on these murky events security analyst charles bridge thinks the o. P. C. W. s credibility will be called into question if it turns dawn moscows in the taishan. Allows that the west to say if they want that if they believe russia is actually hiding something here which it may be it may not be this well done of course that its open to the west and many of those whose course will work for the a. P. C. To be sponsored violence or courted by western governments we saw that very much cheering the city. Series of reports at the a p c w i produced for any i think neutral objective investigative work questionable at best shall we say moving on to the new one the case it allows the n. P. C. To be on the west to call russias bluff if thats what they believe is happening it would be interesting to see what the i. P. C. C. Their response to this is because they dont accept the invitation of course it cant stand as an organization absolutely come to a preordained conclusion. Still ahead on the program pope francis the kleins are requests to meet with the u. S. Secretary of state story and more for the shortest the break. When else so seems wrong but all wrong just dont call. Me the world yet to shape out this day become educated and in detroit equals betrayed. When so many find themselves worlds apart when just to look for common ground. Up. Well lets talk about. The London Bridge and the. First president ial debate exhibited lots of like not much one can argue neither candidate last night there was a perfect reflection of the nations politics with the campaign coming to an end do the debates have any meaningful impact is there such a thing as an undecided voter. Lets restart the program here in russia where moscow and other major cities are tightening their coronavirus restrictions offer a surge in cases arties double quarter takes us through developments. Over the past several weeks russia seen a significant rise in the rate of new covert cases with nearly 9000. 00 new infections over just the past 24 hours of course the countrys 2 largest cities have been hit the hardest in St Petersburg cases have exceeded those from june worrying authorities that a 2nd wave may have already begun theyve already made it mandatory for people to wear face masks on public transport under the penalty of a fine but on the other hand moscows mayor seems to think the capital has enough hospital beds to handle whatever comes out it but he still introduce new measures to deal with what he considers to be a very serious situation we are seeing a steady rise in the number of coded 1000 cases over 2000 daily the situation is very dangerous predictably this uptick thats an increase in the number of people hospitalized more than 5000 we could sit down in the new measures will go into effect on october 5th and theyll require all businesses to have at least 30 percent of their workforce on an at home work regime people 65 and older and those with serious illnesses will also be required to work from home and as for children the mayor has declared a 2 week School Holiday for the beginning of october to curb the rate of infection the proportion of children whove contract it could be 19 has for the 1st time exceeded 900 percent of all cases over the usually have mold symptoms or nonis will they can post the disease on to older family members who are likely to develop much more serious symptoms so far russia sporting the vaccine is going ahead with phase 3 testing as planned with no serious side effects reported the mayor of moscow hopes the 1st batches will be produced either by november or december and perhaps this time around the authorities will have an advantage on keeping new infections low. The u. S. Secretary of state paid a visit to the vatican where he was hoping to meet with pope francis the holy see the klein requesting the pontiff does not meet with politicians during election campaigns mike pohnpei oh how to urge the Catholic Church to join washington into nonsinging violations of religious freedom in china. 2 years ago the hooli sea reached an agreement with the Chinese Communist party hoping to help chinas catholics yet the chinas communist pontus abuse of the faithful has only gotten worse the vatican in dangerous its moral authority should renew the deal. Pompei was referring 2828000 deal in which the Catholic Church agreed to recognize several bishops by beijing it was seen as a 1st step and reestablishing relations between the vatican and china which were severed back in 1051 in response to criticism from the u. S. The papacy defended the agreement with china saying direction mean more than his worth continuing International Relations analyst victor gao thinks washingtons attempt to pressure the thought again is misguided. Not only as secretary of state ill say the wrong thing and try to interfere in the internal affairs of the holy see but also all the timing is very suspicious a very sensitive right now and this is really troubling to see the secretary of state of the United States not doing diplomacy but actually becoming a warmonger and the rumor monger in the world very much in. The same footsteps with his president and we can see that washington is really rules in his moral leadership suffering from a seizure of the hysteria extremism and hopelessness whatever your college and or it wants to do whatever it can to practice the being seen drug to watch the kneecaps of china it wants to see china as an enemy and it wants the rally the whole world behind it by 2 and not succeed because china has now a very significant force called girl both girls. The European Union is taking legal action against the u. K. Over its plan to override the brakes at the horse trading and it comes after the house of commons passed an internal market bill which is said to contradict they will crawl agreement approved last year picking up the story for. The u. K. Government have introduced this internal market bill is still in the draft stages awaiting to be truth into policy normal essentially what it would do is by admission of the huge a government itself is go against the Withdrawal Agreement that was agreed by the 2 sides at the beginning of this year and do much of the hard work done by negotiators on both sides of the e. U. Commission have now put the u. K. On notice that they could be facing legal action as a result of this latest measure as you know how we had invited down british friends too. Remove the problematic parts of their draft internal market beyond the deadline lapsed yesterday. The problematic provisions have not been removed. Therefore this morning the commission has decided to send a letter farmer notice to the u. K. Government this is the 1st step in an infringement procedure this bill challenges some of the most important parts of the withdrawal egremont in particular to do the Northern Ireland protocol of course the border between the north and the republic of ireland hugely important to the stability and peace of the island of ireland and yet there are those on the european side who say that this could threaten the good friday agreement this could violate the integrity of the Single Market this bill that is but also there was some again even within the British Government the Northern Ireland secretary and themselves admitting that by doing this the u. K. Government are violating International Peace does break International Law in a very specific and limited way we are taking the power to supply the you know concept of direct to create the strategy and behavior of the British Government was one of brinkmanship was one of threatening to crash as she you know if if you dont if we dont get to an agreement we might go kamikaze on you that sort of thing trust has been eroded. Tension has been created doubt have been created and thats not conducive to solid because we are less than 100. 00 days away from the end of the socalled transition period and both sides and should be really at this point trying to negotiate a deal to avoid a node an outcome that many economists say would be disastrous for both sides not least the u. K. And yet who we are with one side threatening the other with legal action this is surely not how it negotiators hope things be going at this very late stage. Of our thursday night news update from our moscow hates q. R. P. Back with all your updates in just over half an hour theyre close now though as we cross the some more great programs in moment. Join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and ill be speaking to guest of the world of politics sports business im show business ill see you then. As the u. S.

Oh hi im max keiser this is the kaiser report well lets talk about tea and crumpets and scones and London Bridge and the crowd. Stacy well max we are going to get into some details about the queen and compare her and the whole royal system to wall street of 1st i want to say you know anybody could essentially now live with a view say of London Bridge or tower bridge or you know right along the thames or see the Buckingham Palace or live in Buckingham Palace because theres Virtual Reality now last episode we spoke to bryan rama only about that this episode were going to continue some of that conversation but one thing i want to say is we spent this past weekend in Virtual Reality at the magical crypto conference and it was quite amazing life for me because i spent quite a long time in there as my avatar what i realized is that i could roll out of bed and speak in front of a huge audience and it was no problem on my hair was perfect i felt you know present a ball and then i realized that i think with this whole Virtual Reality what youll see is that humans will we go feral essentially you dont need to brush your teeth your breath smells fine and Virtual Reality your hair looks great you know your clothes look fantastic you dont need to buy anything new you can stay in the same pajamas year after year but the structures the save civilization itself like the actual real estate that holds together most of our western economies and all of the derivatives based on those commercial backed Securities Mortgage backed securities all that stuff all of that will crumble because you dont need you just need one little area like this and to live in Virtual Reality oh right so youre talking about 2 things there the. The crumbling of our reality our infrastructure and. Castles that were important in our in the history of western civilization like we have a Buckingham Palace and also the collapse of the ego as it were the conscious mind because we have a super conscious mind now called Virtual Reality so things that we used to be in the subconscious mind are not going to be in our conscious mind which will be the new subconscious mind like will have this subconscious life that we used to call reality but astound unseen by anyone outside the bar immediate location which is never viewed outside of our media itself so you have these 2 things collapsing go coterminous as i believe you could say the physical infrastructure and the mental infrastructure are collapsing simultaneously and we are simultaneously giving birth to a Virtual Reality is becoming pervasive and interactive and quite. Meaningful and driving the economy well i was a cartoon avatar 1 you can see it on the screen right now and then here is max he was at the same conference speaking on stage you only spent half hour on stage with leno but i spent hours there and Walking Around the environment and finding my way around rooms and even though its a cartoon obviously i felt part of that and then when i was interviewing dr adam back i felt like in myself like i was sitting with him and talking to him so even at that rudimentary Virtual Reality level i felt that so whats it going
