Extend Major Nuclear arms treaty between the nations just months away from expiring. Other very good morning to you thanks for joining us on r. T. The capital of the disputed nagornokarabakh region has been struck by several powerful explosions overnight thats despite or now weeklong ceasefire agreed between armenia and azerbaijan reports on the ground claim air raid sirens went off multiple times but the extent of the damage is currently unclear locals took cover in their basements the rockets are believed to have also struck the area that surrounds the city and these are pictures from one of the nearby villages injuries have been reported. Tensions between baku in your oven over the disputed territory have spiked since the end of september the 2 sides have been trading accusations of attacks blaming each other for civilian casualties and damage inflicted as a budget as president has meanwhile announced that his country has reclaimed 3 cities in the going to color back something armenia denies our correspondents in the region and now reports on what life is like there after the latest strikes. This place could very easily be mistaken for the front line of Nagorno Karabakh but it isnt its a small sleepy village of. Also commonly known as red bazaar and last night it was battered by a very fire im standing in one of the craters left by the bombardment its about 8 meters in diameter at the. Most about 7 oclock i wanted to park the car in the yard because the bombs had been dropped there or the cast iron explodes and splinters everywhere with a radius up to a few 100 meters today for example my house wasnt damaged but our neighbors windows were smashed someones roof was broken in the door were already used to it it was. Like all villages of Nagorno Karabakh red bazaar resembles a ghost town its not the 1st time that its been bombed in this escalation theres also a monotonous rhythm made by the sounds of artillery fire coming from over the horizon but those who have chosen to stay are saying that they have gotten used to this new and gruesome soundtrack to their lives his sister the kind of life can that be during war everyone heights in basements even if a bomb drops a kilometer away the houses shake which we know that is close to ours we of course its scary especially when the bombs dropped nearby but im not going to leave anyway all the youngsters and men stayed here some of them are serving in the army depending on their age. But here its just an echo of the fighting that is raging some 50 kilometers to the south from here around the town of a drought theres no way of saying for sure who is in control of this heavily contested region which is considered to be the gateway into nagornokarabakh thing is its one of the biggest problems about covering this conflict the lack of opportunities to independently verify the claims of both sides but one. Fact is. The fighting there is absolutely brutal despite the cease fire that was announced a whole week ago but as of now theres no mechanism of enforcing the truce on the ground and as long until this mechanism is implemented the fighting sees by itself and weve done of reporting from the going to karabakh see. Meanwhile the conflict has again spilled beyond the confines of the disputed territory as a by john claims 12 people were killed in a shelling raid in the early hours of saturday morning dozens were injured in. The 2nd largest city of gunja rescue workers there are ongoing residential buildings with both of you can see it in the attack the 1st time that the citys been targeted according to these very side 9 people were killed in a previous attack. Another journey city has repeatedly come under fire this week who accuses iran of carrying out the attacks. And as about a journey journal journalist reports now from the area. I am is a totally junior officer vision it is safe here now but a few days ago simply turning on all camera lights would have restyle lives with guns firing at any source of flight do regions. And go on boy and artillery fire from Armenian Armed forces for example will be in the people are we taught our district we hear shells exploding no more than a few 100 meters from us fighting continues along the front line and civilians are caught in the middle for example yesterday during a funeral procession shell exploded. Killing 5 people in one link another 5 shells he also residential buildings and the main road people here in tartar leave their nerves. Never knowing when cells start falling again. The french president of a new micron has branded the beheading of a history teacher in a paris suburb and islam missed terror attack a man killed the teacher after he reportedly showed his class cartoons of the prophet mohammed during a lesson earlier in the month. 80 assess any one of our compatriots was murdered because he taught freedom of expression the freedom to believe or not it will lead to this you are going to crash it was the victim of an islamist terror attack and the thought that the or. Lets go live to france now our correspondent sure the dubious. Has been following what sounds like a gruesome event what can you tell us in terms of the facts we know shot. Star that people have been arrested in relation to this at that includes one minor we understand that all individuals arrested are related to the alleged assailant all of that to capitation this took place at around 5 pm in the northwest aparisim region not in paris itself but in the region around it it took place near the school where the 47 year old history teacher worked now the teacher whos been to capitated was a history teacher and who recently as you mentioned that i had a class in school looking at freedom of speech in this part of that showed a caricature of years old who was a limb prophet mohammed now its understood in the french media there reporting this that one of the parents of another child metacity that when this lesson to a place to teach it did say to any was lame students that they perhaps should leave so that they wouldnt be shocked by these images and clearly the teacher was apparently sensitive to the fact that this image is banned and is seen as obscene by many muslims now its friday its understood that somebody screamed out the words lack god is great before this attack took place that alerted the police to the fact that something was happening but before the police could arrive the teacher was to capitated now we understand the salient then took an image of that capitation and shared it on social media sharing it and saying that he had beheaded the teacher as a result opened showing news images of the prophet mohammed one of the most gruesome images i have seen for a very long time showing at the head of a man with a blood soaked face mask and just underneath his chin that move that post has since been removed and that r. T. Has been able to see that all the. Been able to verify that that is the teacher that has been decapitated never the police did show up they say they were accosted by a man brandishing a knife and they shot him he later died of his injuries a crisis unit is being set up here in france and this has been taken over by the anti terror prosecution unit last night president matt corn arrived on the scene this is what he had to say to motivate yourself who are i want to say to all the teachers are from that we stand with them im secure into zim and the violence that goes with it will not win again you know they will not divide us you know this is what they are looking for and we must all stand united in there is shock and horror here in france that what is being seen as a heinous brutal attack is even being reaction from some members of the Muslim Community here in france the a mom for example of the grand mosque in described this as being vile behavior and said that you know you would have thought that belief even the insult to showing a caricature and nothing he said justifies the killing of the soul and in fact he described the actions by the assailant as being tools since for a muslim now sharia up there has also been treating a parents at the incident saying that intolerance is just crossed and needs threshold that doesnt seem to stop imposing terror all our country that is false of course and its just constant in the weeks after another terrorist attack that took place here in the center of paris this was an 18 year old who had been upset by the fact that shortly after we published those controversial caricature is called the prophet mohammed to coincide with the terror attack thats taking place here in france the terror attack those in fact related to the at terror terrorist events took place in charlie after back in 2000. Getting that led 12 people dead on that day at that 18 year old stabbed syrian individuals outside the former offices of sholay abdullah so this isnt really a motive subject here at the moment in france and it also comes at a time when president matter on and his government is trying to fight against what it describes as being separatism at this is the fight back present back onset in that school just a couple weeks ago against any deviation overweight from the secular nature of frost that is the fact that religion is not the driving north here in france the french authorities believe for a long time the children are learning arabic in mosques all being provided those essence by religious organizations could cause subjected to indoctrination and as a result of that that at now all be moved to schools thats where kids will be able to learn arabic even feel the chair we also know that there will be no home schooling in future unless there are Health Reasons that support that there will be closer scrutiny of schools and associations that serve religious communities all of these things as at present maclin said its important that france is liberated from foreign influences and there is a new law thats in the process of being created against secularism and that is good percentage tools the end of this year but this comes amidst a very confusing time here in france you know 2050 marked the start of a wave of terror that still hasnt subsided and in the wake of that we publication of those cartoons flash on the edge there are polls taken that found that almost 3 cool to of muslims who responded under the age of 25. 00 said that they would put their faith ahead called the republic and muslim countries that also criticize those we publications. Saying that that shouldnt happen because it wasnt safe so this incredibly gruesome terror attack as it is being treated in the rules west area outside of paris has once again what into focus the fact that there is this disconnect here in france a disconnect between those people who perhaps are religious fanatics and those people who are abiding all the secular nature of france solid to ski reporting on yesterdays attack in france thank you. And to the news now washington and moscow are our odds over the extension of a Major Nuclear arms control treaty this is after the us pushed back against the idea of putins proposal to extend it without preconditions for another year because aaron has been. As the clock ticks on the last remaining u. S. Russian arms control treaty the United States and russia seem to be locked in a stalemate almost always suggesting an unconditional 5 year extension of the treaty the u. S. Wants quite extensive changes which moscow as called quite simply unrealistic now speaking earlier on friday president putin made a strong call to save the pact when youre used to losing i have a suggestion to prolong the existing treaty without any conditions for at least one year in order to have the opportunity to hold talks on the end of the matter is regulated by such treaty and not to leave all the countries in the world interested in the preservation of strategic stability without such a fundamental document as the strategic arms reduction treaty and things between at the 2 have escalated quite quickly with the u. S. Even responding with threats if their conditions are not met. The United States is serious about arms control that will keep the entire world safe we hope that russia will reevaluate its position before a costly arms race ensues now the issue is that washington wants a framework for a new trilateral treaty that covers all new player warheads and includes those of china in the future something which russia has objected to the new strategic arms reduction treaty otherwise known as the new start treaty was signed in 2010 by u. S. President barack obama and russian president Dmitry Medvedev and the plan to limits each country to no more than 1550. 00 deployed Nuclear Warheads and 700. 00 deployed missiles and bombers and envisages sweeping on site inspections to verify compliance but the treaty is set to expire in feb 2021 so time is really of the essence here and the lack of an agreement and of course the tone of rhetoric between the 2 sides has raised concerns within the e. U. When it is imperative that the Russian Federation and United States of america extend with. The new start treaty for the duration of 5 years. For the sake of all of our security the world must return to a common past wars nuclear these are months now as you may remember last year saw the breakdown of the 987 intermediate range Nuclear Forces treaty said the new start is the only Nuclear Arms Control pact between the 2 sides that remains so needless to say the stakes are extremely high literally taken in washington is listening to this instinct in washington would you object that we speak you can increase the danger of nuclear war with the existence of all these weapons it certainly is a low point i think there were points that were more to point to the very closely watched. The war. Or less for the worse 30 years im going to say that it was that there is really interest in the United States considerable arms moves arms production where arms production our military industrial spending is the most. Number one cost well that and. So there are very strong elements in the United States and in the trunk. Oh were just seeing a new arms race because i dont mean immense profits. Still ahead on our health ortiz and can check are trying to get to the bottom of an ecological disaster that has devastated the regions marine life well hear from the governor that after the break. You know when the family 1st said back in february the question i posed to the global audience was will this be a crisis sufficient enough to overrun the ability of Central Banks to paper over the crisis because for the last 30 years every crisis weve had whether its a market crash or the 2000 and some crime crash or a hurricane or ecological or population or wars always been met with paper printing by the Central Banks. Interest rates keep going down theres no penalty for issuing all that paper as weve seen now for 40 years Interest Rates have gone down so now here we are in the end of the year the question again is is the crisis big enough to not be able to be fixed by Central Bank Money printing. Welcome back authorities in russias region of cum chad say that a socalled red tide was the main cause of massive marine life destruction which was 1st reported of its coast in tobar some though are questioning the conclusion that a phenomenon caused by a toxic algae bloom is to blame a red tide event that is where large masses have seen microorganisms and grow exponentially in a given area killing off other vary in life this is down to the fact that some of those are the produce toxins are the types deplete the water of oxygen as they grow and subsequently decompose soon issue we discussed and other ways to mitigate the environmental disaster and its impact with contract because gov sawed off. Mr governor thank you very much for doing this we really appreciate to understand where we stand mr governor would you officially call what happened in kentucky an environmental disaster there are several worst week were we use to describe what happened to disaster or just a phenomenon and never the worse so we. See for sure the skew of this phenomenon is biribi repressive and a large part of of well were sure was about these deaths of. 20 and around 20 people were harmed in the we seek after the conflict with the ocean water so what is happening is very very serious and we know all very grateful for that the concern of the same defects or so it is and it could logical activists all of the world. Who want to do all that good to know for sure what really happened what are the causes and what the consequences of these neutral phenomenon orica ecological disaster is you wish now were talking about a red. Tike as the main course for this right as far as i understand absolutely let me say for sure right now the winds were dead because of the radar its because of the microorganisms the appeared to. Be demanded in our waters by the fact the we dont know until now is the reason of tides because in the previous years we never faced so. Its yes it happens sometimes in some base of charkha but for the last 15 years we never faced such an impressive dearth of our American Life right a week ago in one of your interviews mr governor you mentioned the red tide saying initially i didnt take it seriously to be on it so what happened in 7 days to completely taint your mind i am not specialist in biology i am not a scientist and as a simple person living can chart of course for me when i heard that those microorganisms. Could cause such a mess of deaths of. A 1000000 inhabitants of our hard drive once was like a joke but we know very few it world ocean and i used to believe do serious scientists who now say that it is not a unique phenomenon that we faced it before not in such scale but still and they explain very slowly what the mechanisms happening that caused of these this fact are going to come back to this International Cooperation but it may 1st finish where the causes is the red tide the only reason for the mass deaths. Of sea life nikken task at they smell and i still consider an odd effect. As well we are considering all the facts and to be i want us to of course we do we i mean human beings do or serious psychological harm to our nature on there is a number of technological factors that may influence over an agent theyre not of such importance because i remind that we see now of the death of 100 miles on the ocean shore of several 100 kilometers it is impossible to influence with a given acknowledge equal course but nevertheless my point is that we should do all we can do to make come charkha purest and then well take a logical really responsive and safe place on our us but there are still those who do not agree with the official explanation its not a secret for your course mr governor and they still insist that it is a. Disaster and what would you say to that our response is very simple it is the absolute openness and transparency we invite everybody who is concerned about their political situation to come charkha who wants to investigate all the facts and all the analytics we care that is why we publish every day all the results of analysis taken in hundreds of numbers on our official website and we invite all Ecological Organization doesnt matter where it is Nongovernmental Organization from russia or abroad to participate and i welcome everybody who wants to participate in these. In this investigation moreover i wrote several letters to our international khalif to all the researchers scientists abroad in the in the best in universities in name in talk. In beijing in mit boston in California Technological University we already have some some and discussion with them it is not official collaborations to you and i think that we should in ours we should organize a kind of International Conference to discuss results and possible reaction of of all of us to these to this disaster are you going to invite them to kentucky or due to chronic virus pentad make their work will be done remotely i ask to a russian government to. Nominate the Scientific Board there to be responsible for further investigation from scientific point of view because im not a researcher i dont understand much in biology of Pacific Ocean i hold that during this week the Scientific Board will be appointed and their task will be to continue to get into organize this conference of course no we are in in complicated situation due to 19 and i guess the 1st step will be remodeled but then i will be glad to host here research has been used to getting in the field what is happening with our caller. Yeah the red tide is a global phenomenon indeed and weve seen this in the u. S. Mexico tail e. I understand there are a few details so far but maybe there is any explanation for now why it happened in kentucky and why now it is not for the 1st time you could come china could happen in 970 s. Sort. Of in a human theres after eating seafood influenced by a reptile its now the level the mart of toxic ation is. Well as serious but still we would may say that in this region in this part of Pacific Ocean it happens from time to time scientists do not have the answer why right now it happened of course we had very warm summer and Climate Change may influence different processes in the ocean and a new year is the harm of that human being are doing to the ocean in global scale there too much of this higher ocean is giving their response to us to humans saying that enough you should stop you should change something in your behavior i absolutely i most of the sure myself that we have human caused the reasons of this phenomenon and we should ask ourselves what we should do what we should change. To avoid repeating. A serious red. Mess of death or 100 violence in future yes i understand this is among the priority questions right now what white should be done to prevent this to happen in the future while the Mother Nature hes sending out signals and talking to us yes a way like what changed our behavior completely its it doesnt seem to be possible you know a dozen times in one day i would suggest the 1st thing to do is to implement. The holistic monitoring of the Marine Ecology because right now there are dozens of off organization of institutions that are investigating making an analysis of what happening in the air and in water but there is no universal platform or just to what stop shop for people interested in this information what is even more important that we should cream into. Face for those who want to pretty simply to share the defaulters the video with the griffith it eggs solved and researchers could hear the holistic commission as far as this possible the 2nd one used a very thorough work on our past because logical hard it is to do in our earth you know what region youre speaking about come charkha 3rd thing is that we should change the way we think about ecology which should make our behavior more responsive more interval i mean we should stop in our everyday life using so much close to producing so much liter grunewald the ecological footprint of behavior youre absolutely right that we can it change the behavior you know one day but we should start right now because otherwise consequences might be very very hard very important and what we see right now you know where the logical system income childcare is just an example now lets go back to the disaster facing right now to the beginning of that as far as i remember you received the 1st signals from surface some of whom you met before and this is how you saw the tag on social media and if im not mistaken it was on september 29th right around there week after he officially became kentuckys governor so what exactly happened next were steps were taken and what possible reason this potential causes were investigated i reacted to mediately and i asked those who are responsible for making in ellis of the quality of water to do it on the same day and after that every day with it hundreds often nurses and hundreds of investigations in order to try to define what is the poisoning. Substance the thing
