Calling interruptions. A warm welcome to our international my names you know 30 minutes of news start. The Un Security Council is calling for an immediate end to fighting between armenia and azerbaijan after 4 days of hostilities the 2 nations are once again vying for control over their long speeded border region. R. T. Is the sole media granted access to the region. Spoke to me from their earlier. Well were in the city of. The capital of the disputed nagornokarabakh region and well you can see how dark it is around me well its not because were in a forest or somewhere in the middle of nowhere no in were in the middle of a city a big pretty big bustling city normally shining with the lights but this is not the case right now because all the street lights have been switched off people are trying not to light the lights in their homes just because just to make it more difficult the job more difficult to those who are bombing this town what has become regular here raid sirens that sort of a sort of terrifying soundtrack to this war i should say this city of suppose it is pretty far from the front line about 60 kilometers probably but regularly every day were hearing dozens of raid sirens and we hear it were hearing explosions as the Missile Defense systems as added fan systems i should say are shooting down these drones that the Azerbaijani Army is sending in sending in here now when it comes to the latest as to whats going on on the frontlines well i wish i could tell you that it is getting more timid but well it isnt at all the fighting is intensifying from what im seeing this is the conclusion that i can make so far the infantry arent at each others throats on going into hand to hand combat so far the conflict in the staging of artillery shelling and bombings the drone bombings especially so the 2 the 2 sides are firing at each other relented slee ruthlessly when it comes to casualties both armenia and azerbaijan to giving contradicting figures and each for instance armenia for example is saying that more than 100. 00 people were killed they could have they killed more than 100. 00 as they are by johnny soldiers as they are by john denies that and says that it was them who killed hundreds of armenians soldiers and im. Turn denies that so it is difficult to find any and plausible and real its difficult to tell which figures are realistic indeed now when it comes to the bigger developments armenia today the Foreign Ministry accused by john of giving up all operations offensive operations bombings control to the Turkish Military so essentially theyve said that now everything thats going on every bombing is something that turkey has ordered something that has been ordered from by you the Turkish Military now ankara of quds has adamantly denied that saying that they are not involved in this conflict militarily armenia has promised to show some proof but hasnt done so so far now as to what we have seen we traveled to a frontline town basically in an hour that we spent there filming we witnessed everything artillery artillery fire from both sides a drone came in flew into buzzing the armenian soldiers shot at it didnt they missed the drone bomb those those who shot and flew away and then artillery worked again all that in a span of just an hour now i will be standing by here reporting from the frontlines and from and report giving you bringing you personal stories alike so stay tuned for that. Meanwhile as a versioning media have published a video allegedly showing a drone strike on armenian soldiers dozens of civilian and military casualties are being reported on both sides people in azerbaijan and armenia view the ongoing crisis. For tickets and as a by john is not providing any opportunity to resolve this conflict through negotiations it has been decided that the conflict must be resolved through force then we are all ready for that but it must be understood that if this happens there will be severe loss of life and every loss is a tragedy we do not want the issue to be addressed in this way medical needs from our position it is the it serious who are to blame and from their point of view we are to blame as an armenian i do not want to talk about who is right or wrong but i would like those issued to be resolved through negotiations not force. And i dont like what is happening many people i know are now going to the front line we dont want blood to be shed 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 lens. For devotion and. Of course what is happening in the conflict zone is bad who would want to have a war and see people dying but how hand was forced by the armenians. Well as the fighting intensifies moscow has warned about the possible involvement of foreign extremists in the conflict breaking dawn what that means on the ramifications possibly arties only of a trend go. So the issue of foreign mercenaries from outside the region being moved into the call for exile in a gorn a car back it was 1st armenia that began pointing at such concerns but now is the time when the russian officials are directly addressing this threat in a statement heres what exactly the russian Foreign Ministry said according to the information we have received militants from illegal armed groups have been transferred to the nagornokarabakh conflict zone from syria in libya to take part in the still it is we call on the leaders of the countries involved to take active measures to prevent the deployment of Foreign Terrorists a masterpiece in the conflict and to ensure their immediate withdrawal from the region so and this is very important moscow is not pointing the finger at any of the sides for being behind it but like i said when your yvonne was voicing concern about alien fighters in the region they put the blame on turkey straight away in fact armenia has been saying all along that turkey is to blame for provoking this conflict in the 1st place now in an interview to russian t. V. Both leaders of armenia and azerbaijan addressed this specific issue and here is what exactly they had to say by and they stopped every turkish Warfare Instructors and high ranking personnel a currently at command posts in azerbaijan turkey is also recruiting mercenaries in syria and taking them to azerbaijan to fight in a war against nagornokarabakh and armenia turkey is giving us moral support and we are grateful to the turkish government and turkish people for solidarity and standing by her side there is no other role turkeys taking into the conflict the role of iran and all this has been the focus of speculation and debate for a long time now because unlike Many International players which called for a peaceful settlement and the ones that didnt take. Turkey from the very beginning began to support as our by john even said that they are ready to back them militarily now this is something that wasnt welcome to by russia which is also an important player in the region and which does at this point has very good relations with anchor up so heres what we heard in response to the statements made by turkish officials from moscow. We stand by as a by john on the field and at the table now we want to solve this problem completely so that peace and stability can come to the region the occupied territories of azerbaijan must be liberated nobody im sure any statements about some kind of support and military activity and doubted lee add fuel to the fire we are firmly against this we call on all countries especially our partners including turkey to do all they can to urge the conflict in sides to return to the ceasefire now all of this comes amid media reports that Syrian Rebels backed by turkey are either getting ready to be moved to a car back or are already on the way there but again for now these are just reports and like i said before russia is not blaming anyone for this matter at this point you know there is a lot going on earlier i spoke to a political analyst focusing on the region he told me there are numerous complex aspects to consider in this conflict. There are Many Organizations not probably i dont think it is real be bodies me the orf torquey me there are funded by general revealed to me that it is mainly i suppose the initiative belongs to certain Financial Firms and slummy Financial Firms related to the muslim presence in another meaning of the they are me and Prime Minister a stated turkey might be sending syrian raised by shan to fight in this conflict could this information have any crimes of truth in it well it could because you need to cross the borders you need to get customs clearance when you come into country and of course the to push government feel very relaxed when the militants who are in practical meaning and purpose control getting out of the country and they could much less problems because when they go to get out to other place and dont forget the game to still be feeling that the former soviet union have something in common and when these people call in for arabs for syrians or for turks when we come back to the former soviet union. If these kind of go for it looks ation so i think they knew about it and they could put it away and but they didnt but there is no in the official decisions that sent has a. Government sponsored troops weve seen over the last number of days statements of support from and credit for us about how far do you think turkey is willing to go to help its ally well you should understand the situation be thrown the chair of the foot of the gun was shaken out but too many forces inside turkey would include a gun party now wanting to replace him and hes fighting for the do please so if the military fortune would be on a sort of bridge on the side of the gun would get the glory of the conqueror over there are many and like stuff that you would quarles. Big greek. So if we could afford to sure all of us would oblige on this but if it means we have begun to lose nothing because of beauty but its a little bit of motivations. Joe biden have locked horns in the 1st us Election Debate of 2021 year my colleagues down the hawkins double quarter the scale of the president ial clash which was a chaotic affair with no shortage of insults and interruptions. Listen respectfully to each others opinions im not here to call out his lies Everybody Knows hes a liar never use the word smart with me dont ever use that word because you know what it is nothing smart about you joe what do you. Excuse the one who so you are number 2 hes putins puppy i get my time back if you are interruptions i am appealing to you sir to do well and him to well frankly youve been doing more in iraq at that event but he does plenty well less than you will hes just show us for a minute why do you do it all that i want in the last 25 years i because im going to do it because you are president things up you are a senator and the worst with resumes america is ever. Going to try. To get any word with this clown directly you know now that were done were done sir while then the American People had big hopes for this debate after all its happening on the backdrop of a Global Pandemic and a serious economic crisis but based on how both biden and trump conducted themselves i would say most people probably thought they were watching some sort of circus. You should get out of your bunker and get out of the sand trap and get in your golf course and fund what needs to be done now to save lives he wants to shut down this country and i want to keep it open. I had it close to greatest economy in the history of our country we handed him a. Booming economy he blew it was it evil who. He is where the crime bill 994. 00 where you call the super predators africanamericans the super predators and the moderator was barely able to hold this discourse together to stop it from completely devolving into insults and unsurprisingly we saw the Mainstream Media pretty quickly send out already headlines blaming trump entirely for derailing the debate but as we just saw in that clip it takes 2 to tango and biden didnt exactly live up to his promise to bring dignity to politics we can do all that we need to do to make grown to restore and we need to restore the integrity of the presidency of the office of presidency and humans to the American Public had high hopes for this debate whats been the reaction so far while during the debate the moderator was able to get in a lot of questions that the American People really want answers to how the next administration is going to handle Coronavirus ReliefRacism Police brutality the social unrest but the most important thing of all is how biden or trump actually respond to these questions and voters didnt seem to think that they did a very good job honestly is a very painful response i dont think either them one this is terrible all around this is very upsetting to watch that this is the best representation for our country right now i dont think i can say that even if you were one i think it was a twister it was a wild ride right away and left there was a lot going on theres a lot of interruption it was crazy. To me that i dont think either one of them respected none. And the economy seems to agree with those voters as well because right after the close of this chaotic debate we saw u. S. Stock futures take a plunge and while both political camps have already started making political memes as if theyre their guy won the debate everyday voters are really kind of. Making a sort of id rather laugh than cry approach. Well we asked former republican senator john loudon and International Affairs experts a few mclennan for their thoughts on the 1st debating. Theres little doubt that trump lost his composure as he was repeatedly interrupting and. Seemed overly emotional and somewhat hysterical i was disappointed to see it in decide to sort of stoop to that kind of behavior he tends to be very dismissive been goalie and in fact you name call its certainly not president ial its not the kind of behavior that you really want to see any candidate match or anybody watching had their minds changed except that i do i do see that i think bidens going to have some cleanup to do with the left flank its inappropriate he just dismissed the president as a liar i hate to see the count on how many times he said the president just lies without backing up and being specific about what was dishonest but american politics can be pretty contentious and i think American People sadly are kind of used to it. And well return to the debates a little later in the program most New York Times readers are up in arms over the papers in fact last night as the story for when we come back. Lets talk about. Edging closer to 20 minutes into the Program Welcome back im going to say shes planning to meet with the bella russian opposition leader. Is currently in the. Lead her country after the disputed president ial election in august the german chancellor shares her view that the youth vote was rigged. Ok levis phone didnt we do not recognize the legitimacy of the question because presidency him to engage in dialogue with his people without interference from east or west we can down whats going on there on a daily basis specifically the derailment of the democratic process and the violence perpetrated against the opposition german chancellor Angela Merkel has added her voice to calls from french president emmanuel back on for Alexander Lukashenko to step down as president of belarus micron had met with svetlana ticking off sky the woman who ran against in august disputed election just earlier this week that meeting took place between the french president and mistaken following that meeting that crown said that he was willing to act as a mediator to get to the bottom of the impasse that followed that vote however there has been some questions over the fitness of mr micron to act as a mediator in a dispute hes already very publicly taken aside in or speaking or whedons day the german chancellor Angela Merkel said that she will also be holding her own meeting with svetlana taken off in a meeting of the need. I will meet with their positions to one of square one we see brief women taking to the streets calling for corruption free life i cannot but it mire that. With 2 of the keep power brokers in france and germany either having met with or agreeing to meet with svetlana ticket its hard to see how that sits alongside previous statements by Emmanuel Marco on and Angela Merkel saying that there should be no outside interference in the future dollars. From clapham absolutely clear must find its way by itself and there must be no involvement from abroad the people of belarus know what they want and it was good for them. We want the dialogue to take place among the russians themselves with europe. When union is ready to take parts if thats what belorussians wants russia should also be included as part of that dialogue with moscow is unequivocal on this and says that these meetings are direct outside interference on the future of belarus that immediate putins Spokes Person to me to the press corp saying that there was tremendous external pressure on minsk and on Alexander Lukashenko right now we consider these decisions to be at odds with International Law they clearly feel to facilitate dialogue and in effect a man to meddling in internal affairs expect more bellerose talk coming this week on thursday and friday theres a special Council Summit taking place during that summit we can expect the future of sanctions on belarus and all Alexander Lukashenko and those close to him to be discussed to bring y
