A state of alert in the capital and france reports the highest number of cases since the outbreak began. The Nobel Peace Prize for 2022 the World Food Program a u. N. Agency wednesday 2020 Nobel Peace Prize for its global efforts to fight hunger and starvation we speak to the head of the World Food Program. Im joined again with the sports raphaela tao continues his domain an imperative as he reaches a 13 french open final with victory at the g 8. Thanks for joining us on the news hour we begin in kurdistan and nation gripped by Political Uncertainty the former president s back says there has been an attempt on. His life his car was reportedly shot out on the streets of the capital bishkek of the current president served by jim because of his order troops into the capital to enforce a state of emergency though enforce a curfew and tight security that will last the least until later this month now just hours earlier jim because of dismissed the government he also said that he will resign but only once a date for a new elections has been sects stratford is in bishkek and he says Parliament Needs to vote on the state of emergency before its considered legal. Despite the president announcing the state of emergency a couple of hours ago weve now had a statement come through this being made by the by speaker of Parliament Saying that parliament has to vote on the state of emergency in order for it to be legal and we understand that an emergency session of parliament will be held tomorrow to do exactly dieties expected that the state of emergency will be voted full and that emergency session will also include discussions of all the Prime Minister candidates now we already have a Prime Minister in this country somebody who apparently was voted in in a parliamentary session earlier this week. A person who other opposition supporters say was illegitimately voted as pm and as we will inevitably talk about has been causing. So some say some Serious Problems in the capital over the last couple of days but as i say this these mixed messages from from the government. In terms of when this state of emergency starts is just another example of the fact that there doesnt seem to be anybody in full control of this country at the moment you could argue that it is certainly the opposition are putting pressure on the government to follow the kind of legal parameters that this country is proud of setting up in recent years but yeah as i say in the last few days the chaos that weve seen on the streets seems to suggest that all those legal parameters seem to be falling apart. Well a series of crises in countries that russia perceives as part of its fear of influence is casting a shadow over president Vladimir Putins legacy on Foreign Policy so in bella ruse the kremlin has thrown its weight behind president Alexander Lukashenko following a series of antigovernment protests since august Public Opinion there is now turning against moscow central asia kurdistan is also engulfed in mass on rest that could soon force president. To step down tensions between armenia and azerbaijan over the nagornokarabakh enclave as erupted into all out conflicts russia has a military base in armenia but also had good relations with other rage on and once to achieve a peace deal. To samuel green hes the director of the Russia Institute at Kings College london he is joining us from there thanks very much for joining us on aljazeera so these 3 crises are very different but the roots all stretch back to the former soviet union lets lets break them down and look at them armenia and azerbaijan how much of a tightrope is russia walking there because it has ties with both countries. Well it doesnt talk to me both countries and i and so is what critical relationship is of course with with armenia it does as you mentioned earlier have a military base there but it has really set itself up as to a certain sense of that the guarantor of these in some offices and between us and our zone and armenia in particular it has the conflict in in in the border character of our has become known as as one of a number of observers frozen conflicts around the region that moscow has undertaken really to to help manage and it has been threatening to explode into on the south or for a number of years obviously it finally has in ways its been quite tragic so when will it be able to pull its weight and and come up with something positive from the talks that are currently going on right now in moscow. Well its going to be very difficult i mean the reality is that there are longstanding issues which have never really been resolved right so even though moscow has you know kept a lid on most of these one conference around the region using leverage at times to keep the peace it is also wanted to use these frozen conflicts as a means of leverage over both countries right so that if you know their governments in europe on our bankroll were just sort of looking in Different Directions building different relationships that moscow wasnt happy with it could use its role in managing this conflict and has leverage and of course that in itself is destabilizing and allows the conflict to to go on rather than to be resolved you know once and for all in a way that might be amenable to both sides which right now you know there are reasons that this is happening there are most domestic political reasons in both armenia and in one another by john that both governments have chosen to pursue this course of action on and at a time when you know moscows leverage is probably as weak as it has ever been at least since putin came to power the economy all right is so is is suffering and. And obviously which is preoccupied with that with domestic problems as well as you probably elsewhere that region so what about the situation over and kurdistan the Current Power struggle going on there to what extent is moscow trying to save the outcome. Well again i mean its done is you know i was in all these countries this is happening with the for domestic internal reasons youre just on is is a complicated country its a very competitive political environment it has a political and regional and to a certain extent ethnic divisions and it has undergone these sorts of events in the past as does the periodic thing and unfortunately have been incurious politics and moscow are you know one has tried to maintain again close ties with with respect to a certain extent to outcompete the United States and china in the region it has never been able to manage politics that really despite its its influence are so again it will try to do what it can i think to keep things from becoming unmanageable but its ability to actually dictate what the outcome is and certainly to you dictate to the kidneys street is it is really quite limited and umbrella roosts on the street there are things Public Opinion seems to suggest that its turning against moscow we know that moscow has thrown its weight behind the president Alexander Lukashenko if the crisis continues while russia trains its position. Well again i think you know washington in all of these cases has got to make some very difficult decisions as to make decisions about whether its relationship is going to be with the country and that means in the long want to have to be with the street and with the people or whether its going to be with us and you know it has learned hopefully learned some lessons in terms of how its handled ukraine and in trying to really throw its weight behind the former regime of victory in a quote which right at last the ukrainian people are probably for several generations to come it will need to be very careful to make sure that it does not do that in belarus d the conflict in belarus is all about the marching politics its about the power of the bell russian citizenship versus you know of the dictator and moscow does not have to make that about russia but if it does intervene in a more forceful way it will of course make it about russia and it will join the russians against russia in immunity but unfortunately it is assignment agree and we thank you very much for giving us your analysis on aljazeera. Lets just pick up on the issue of the conflict between armenia and azerbaijan we were just mentioning it with samuel green our Foreign Ministers of both countries are holding talks in moscow to resolve the weeks long border conflict over nagornokarabakh this is the latest effort to end the worst flare up in violence between the 2 for over a quarter of a century armenia as leader is saying he is ready to resume peace talks but the as a repressive and seems to be backing a military solution to the conflict for now sent us a hug lu is live in azerbaijan thats where the president addressed the nation earlier today 1st of all bring in journalist alexander stay out of its god for ojt she is joining us from moscow on the russe and mediation efforts there still going on what are we hearing about the expected outcome. Yes so this negotiations the 1st direct talks between any official soviet media and as a debate john since the conflicts started are entering their 5th hour now of the goal that was voiced ahead of this ahead of this meeting is actually not very high is to basically achieve a truce a cease fire a humanitarian kind that the bodies of the killed ones can be called active and also an exchange of prisoners could happen now that is probably because on anything else there could not agree so they could not there were calls for seize for immediate cease fire to going back to the negotiation table from all the cochairs of the oist the minsk group so russia france and United States but thats didnt work so now we were told that they are actually to talk about the possibility of ceasefire to Exchange Prisoners and to collect the deceased and now these talks happened after hours of home phone calls off russian president Vladimir Putin with the heads of state of armenia and azerbaijan and they are here on his invitation and if they shouldnt that one cannot refuse now as you said i mean ian the Prime Minister ahead of this talks said that there are many ways already to renew negotiation process but he also later said that what their media is facing is turkish aggression armenian people and that people in a going a quarter are actually close to a humanitarian catastrophe he also said a media is still thinking about recognizing the road in a car by hand that also other countries should to do that now this is something that the we know is an acceptable force for a debate john and what we saw the previous days and basically previous years as well is that these 2 sides have conditions that are unacceptable for the other rights thank you very much for that update from moscow lets now bring instead of course of a blue shield give us an update from where as were saying the president spoke earlier on today what was the takeaway message. Well there and as you said he said that the solution for disparate law was military and he proved that actually what he said basically is that in order to bring iranian side to the table he had to fight against it he had to find it through military means and he says now it was the military is military fight was the 1st phase but also diplomacy politics are going to work so according to how many of its 1st military and then politics and he said thats how our main us came to the table and he in a way accused the iranian Prime Minister nicolas pushing yun especially because earlier in the week hes kind of our is an iranian is our main in the long star mania and he said if you are to repeat this again then there will be no talks in moscow apparently the for the initial wish for does every side is that they are mean is unconditional withdrawal from the occupied 7 regions adjacent regions surrounding them going okara by and then talks for another an accord about will be in place now there are some areas that they are as a military has over the advanced as over through some villages of course but what the Foreign Ministers who have been in direct contact for the 1st time since september 2 and so what they are speaking right now and what we will hear from the presser is going to be binding but in how my leo was still of the size that and determined that with his conditions that Armenian Forces withdrawal is necessary for talks for the fair this is they came around the table there are some concessions from both sides. Are its an impossible and thank you very much. The news on aljazeera heres whats coming up donald trump looks to get straight back on the campaign trail after his doctor says its safe for him to resume public engagements. And why the safety for human rights activists in colombia has worsened during the pandemic. The weather spoils the return of the schumacher name to formula joe well have more details in sports. But 1st Donald Trumps aides say its now unlikely that he will hold any Campaign Rallies before monday because of logistics the u. S. President had earlier said he wanted to hold a rally in florida on saturday his doctor says he now has completed his course of treatment for corona virus and that it will be safe for him to resume public engagements by saturday the president is expected to take another covert 1000 test on friday meanwhile the speaker of the u. S. House of representatives is looking to introduce legislation that questions whether donald trump is fit to serve in office nancy pelosi says that trump may be in an altered state and his judgments and parents because of the steroids hes been taking for covert 19 below says move is being taken under the 25th amendment its unlikely to succeed as it needs a majority votes in the Republican Controlled Senate plus the support of the Vice President this is not about president. He will face the judgment of the voters but he shows the need for us to create a profit for future president s bill honors the duty of creating a standing commission. Of top former executive officials and medical experts selected in a bipartisan buy camel way a president fitness for office must be determined by science and that. Bring in our White House Correspondent kimberly halakhah joining us from washington so were hearing no that trump is unlikely to return to the campaign trail until monday yeah and the official reason being given is that this is a logistical issue that it was just too hard to try and get a rally together in time thats possible or its also possible that the explanation is the president hasnt finished his 14 day quarantine in fact its hard for us to know when that started or stopped because the White House Position and the White House Press team has not been forthcoming about when the president of fish fully was testing positive for covert 19 we only know when the president made it public now again its a 14 day quarantine period of according to the centers for Disease Control the president s physician says that will end on saturday but at the same time again the official reason for this being given that its logistical and nothing more than that that the u. S. President is keen to hit the campaign trail hes been making a number of appearances on radio his last Television Appearance was a phone into fox news and thursday evening where the president coughed multiple times hes since given a radio interview where he has not cost we dont know if its live or if its been edited and then this evening the president will be calling in or rather he will have his 1st in person interview again on fox news where hes also going to be evaluated by one of their doctors so a little bit of reality t. V. For the president once again again this is all an attempt to try and get back on the campaign trail which as youve reported is going to be delayed by at least a couple of days the president seems to be throwing his weight behind an antibody drug he was given during the course of his treatment. It is really touting what he called regenerate it thats actually the name of the Manufacturer Company that makes this antibody drug along with eli lilly this is theres no question something that was experimental the president says this is the reason he recovered as quickly as he did and now he wants to make that available to all americans and for free at least thats what hes saying so theres a big push to try and get the food and Drug Administration to approve this again the president touting it successes it should be pointed out this is again something that is experimental the president has been rushing not only to get this ahead of the u. S. Election but also of course the vaccine which he promised would be ahead of the u. S. Election but so far weve been not given any timeline for that as of yet ok can really help to thank you for that update from washington the World Health Organization is reporting a new daily high of coronavirus cases with the global tally surpassing 350000 the Johns Hopkins university tracker here shows the total of confirmed cases is now well over 36000000 more than a 1000000 people are known to have died well more than 25000000 have recovered infections ive continued to surge in europe and fronts the number of infections has risen by more than 20000 thats the highest its even ever been since the pandemic began hospitals in the paris region have moved into emergency mode after a rise in covert 1000 patients in
