Border car about status here between armenia and azerbaijan continued. Poems also 40 minutes area controlled territory despite 85 being agreed just a few days ago. Hello and welcome to all its International Just gone 2 pm here in the russian capital glad to have your company as we take a look at whats happening all around the world well lets start off with how russia says it will stop taking part in consultations over the downing of Malaysian Airlines flight 17 the tragedy took place over Eastern Ukraine in july 24th teen 6 years and 8 the investigation is still ongoing well were joined now by our correspondent in the studio where we just had russia says. No more to the investigation what let the Foreign Ministry to take the decision well as it is explained in document the last straw for russia was the government of the netherlands filing a lawsuit against russia in the European Court for human rights alleging mosca had played their role in the mh 17 passenger airplane crash back in 2014 when all 298 people on board mostly nationals died russia denies all the allegations accusing the now the lens of being interested in only putting all the blame on russia rather than fighting the truth heres the russias Foreign Ministry the dutch move is considered yet another blow to russian dutch relations and the hague courts determination contrary to common sense is to continue on the wrong path of unilateral attribution of responsibility to russia for what happened in the sky above donbass such unfriendly acts by the netherlands make it senseless for us to continue to participate in the 3 way consultations responsibility for the breakdown of the consultations those lies entirely with the hague. Well receive the netherlands reaction they say they deeply regret that russia to decision but by the way in the same announcement of russias Foreign Ministry it is explained that russia is ready to continue with the countries with another Lens Services involved in this. Investigation sorry so they only are right now out of this Consultation Team but they will continue cooperating with the Netherlands Services involved in the investigation well just to remind us because obviously we said 6 years as poss what do we know about the tragedy well i remember that day july 17th 20143 months after kiev launched what it called a massive counterterror in Eastern Ukraine using avocation havea tillery tanks i was there on the ground since day one and i remember how quickly turned into a very bloody deadly operation fighting with casualties from both sides including the months of feeling and so the situation on the ground was boiling it was really dramatic the real war in fact was raging when the tragedy happened to bob Eastern Ukraine and i mean the investigation has been going on every scenes and till today we did not know exactly what had happened to keep. Very dramatic like its a tragedy in fact so and to Government Forces were very quick to accuse a child and interesting is that in that situation the natural lens back to the position of official key of and according to the dutch led joint Investigation Team the plane was brought down by book surface to air missile fired from the rebel controlled territory but interesting is that no satellite a radar data supported actually version when you talk there about people accusing each other star still sounds like theres a lot of confusion is that actually anything connecting russia to the shutdown pain no for russia and yes for the netherlands they say that. Belonged to russia but most do says it handed over immediately all documents proving that thats a particular book the netherlands were talking about was on the surface of the Ukrainian Forces and plus russia shared its radars data and they didnt register any missile fired from that terry to at that moment you know but the netherlands say thats because the raiders are for civilian purposes and the miss out is a military object maybe it was not even supposed to register a military. Military object about the thing is that russia has been complaining repeatedly that the netherlands do not accept russians documents and russians materials he is russias president Vladimir Putin talking about it whatever the presents it doesnt say we have. Syria we have presented its but no one wants to listen to us and unless there is dialogue we will not find the right response to the questions that still remain. The tragedy of. The people we mourn. And we believe. Such incidents are an acceptable so you understand what we hear today from. Russias Foreign Ministry didnt start yesterday all this lack of trust this misunderstanding has been part of for months and years and the question number one for russia still today remains why in the 1st place why it comes that ukraine did not close the scars and did allow passenger airplane to fly about its territory at a time when there was a massive military operation raging in the country including usage of avocation as i said so weve heard as you just said moscow has had long time reservations about it does anyone else in the International Community shad this questioning investigation is on russias side also as you know it was Malaysia Airlines airplane and here is the countrys Prime Minister talking about this investigation and also calling it politicized. Way we excluded from the examination but from the very beginning we see too much politics in it the idea was not to friend how did this happen when all that but you seem to be content. To be on russia had it been a neutral but the examinee and making conclusions we. Accept. These who have some political interests in the middle. I think what is important now is that yes russia is out of 3 way consultations but most go says it is open and ready to cooperate with the Netherlands Services and other countries services anybody involved in the investigation and anybody interested in finding the truth absolutely i mean this so much confusion and so much uncertainty around what kind of think about of course the relatives of those who suffered in the tragic night and banks that was where it finished in the studio with us. But as i said a Big Development not tom packs im going to cross live now to political analyst Chris Bambery for more now so we had that russia says going to stop taking part in the consultations what to your take on why they pulled out but i think what theyre saying is that its a kangaroo court. Judgment the premise of the whole thing is that russia is no governments and its true. Of stock option and therefore its not a judgment and so really you need there is one school or say i think we should also add in the very information of what was happening in the sky. Time has not been shared either by ukraine or of course the United States and its massive surveillance operation so they havent provided data they havent brought information which they have what was happening in europe and other questions asked their asses maria said why was this when a loach of why. A war zone you know i mean well heavy weapons were being used by the web site so there are a number of questions but jancee yours it is because russia feel its judgment has already been made by the dutch and by the australians and that russia is guilty and norther option should be considered so do you talk about no other option being considered that somewhat suggests that you kind of support the view that moscow says the whole investigation was aimed at really throwing these accusations against russia it is not fair assessment. Well years of a vision for instance a missile i mean you know is a soviet made missile from the. Ukraine has them as well you know whats a little across the former us and u. S. S. R. So you cant just say that simply going to be a russian weapon its not quite as simple as dots and such weapons were being used by good science during this so conflict unfortunately you know tragically as it as it turns out our thought should be with the victims of this crash so what russia if you sort of all the gods. From mars you very moment wont we seem to have had a bit of a technical fault were going to try and get chris back on the line when our back here piers that is working from home about what Chris Bambery a political analyst in the caves of. Light in france president of mine you are micro has announced strict new rules for paris and other major cities in response to cope with 19 a nighttime curfew will be enforced from this coming weekend for a minimum of 4 weeks. We have made a decision to and whos a curfew it will be in force in the paris region other french cities a new nationwide state of health of urgency has been declared in france as president mark on outline new stricter measures to try and defeat covert 19 hes announced a curfew that will take place not just here in paris but in 8 other of the worst affected cities across france that will come into force on saturday and will be from 9 pm in the evening until 6 am in the morning and it will be strictly enforced with the 1st time that you are caught outside without a good reason with a fine of 100 35. 00 euros but that will go up to 1500. 00 euros for repeat offenders when southers measures will be in place for at least 4 weeks but the government wants to try and push that to 6 weeks taking it to december 1st and he said president michel and this would be strictly enforced i. E. If you actually live half an hour away you will need to leave the restaurant by half 8 in the evening he also talked about reducing private gathering saying that 6 was the magic number and he said if you will with friends and families at a private gathering and you couldnt be more than one meter away from each other you would still have to wear a mask well there was thick and furious reaction to those announcements by president mack on. 60 percent of new infections happen to work schools or universities between 8 and 7 pm but micron is banning people from going out to bars restaurants between 8 pm and 6 am welcome to absurdity there must be great disappointment among medics tonight who have heard no announcements of extra personnel Material Support or present back and said this was about trying to bring down the number of 1000 infections that came as the latest figures showed there were almost 23000 new cases of the virus in the 24 hours to wednesday with 104 deaths in president said that the Health Care System was simply overloaded with staff being exhausted and he said that the situation was more worrying now than it had been during march at the start of the 1st wave of the pandemic now these measures will also of course affect restaurants and he said that they would be help for people who worked in those sorts of businesses with 90 percent of pay basic pay being covered by the state but you can imagine that many businesses who already hard hit by kosik 1000 are probably worrying about what the future will hold for them now and present back and said that france would have to live with this virus until at least the summer of 2021 so not just a long winter ahead but possibly a long spring and a long summer for france as even stricter measures could be put in place if as president machen said people do not respect the rules and those numbers of covert 9000 infections are not brought down well we spoke with the Health Director for the Red Cross International who supports these tougher restrictions. The stuff for mentions of measures are welcome and we as the red cross today called out for political leaders to intervene in speedy courageous and inclusive way to ensure that these measures are put in place to protect the de health and the social status of all of the people of france and in many other countries even europe or many countries are being taken little bit by surprise by the iraq surge all cases and so the are many countries are reacting within 48 hours with a new measure that being put in place in what hes needed at the moment to ease. Measures that can reduce the deferred trust mission but measures that can also bring people along and this is critical you know order to ensure that those measures are actually effect people. The struggle between army now and as a fight john still seems in full swing despite a cease fire that was that weve lost we will bring you all that makes a lot when we come back. So what weve got to do is identify the threats that we have its crazy confrontation let it be an arms race in this on off and spearing Dramatic Development the only way im going to resist i dont see how that strategy will be successful very critical time time to sit down and talk. The world is driven by a dream shaped by our own personal. Dares thinks. We fear to ask. Welcome back now hostilities continue between on media on as a page on over the disputed region of nagornokarabakh thats despite the agreed cease fire. Reports from the cathedral that was hit last week and meet some civilians caught in the crossfire the war in the go in a cab a whos not just about trivial territorial gains its a long lost feud with lots of bad blood between both sides and recently it has spilled into a new turf religious this 19th century ollie savey a cathedral was a place was soldiers and volunteers alike used to come and pray before heading into battle that made it its all good but it wasnt just soldiers who would come to this church. Theres eerie military was battering the town of shushi at that time so i learned and her family decided to hide from the bombs in the cathedrals crypt one place they thought that was safe from the shelling but they were wrong god does not have to now there were 7 of us including 2 children when the shell hit the cathedral it was deafening there was destruction everywhere masonry fell from the ceiling thats all they can remember 2 strikes have literally sing everything in their path the altar the benches and one of the domes have been completely destroyed no place is sacred no place is safe in this war not only was this church hit twice but the 2nd strike injured 3 russian journalists one of them is still in intensive care after spending several days in a coma he believes the hit on them was intentional the streets of shushi bear a striking resemblance to those in other towns of Nagorno Karabakh its a place of desolation and despair those who can fight are already on the front lines those who had somewhere to run already have done but alone or doesnt have any choice but to stay another story. We have to fit in this small shelter with a kitchen and bathroom in the same place we are too scared to go with doors when we hear the sound of the sirens we are rushing here to hide every even in the reason alone we can hear the shelling people seem to be unfazed by the story state of the cathedral theres plenty of candles still burning within the half destroyed walls of the Church People pray here for peace to return to this land sooner rather than later because dan of reporting from the going to come back r.

Rays show us splintered bones and torn muscles all this suggests that the weaponry has changed a lot but there are very few cases of gunshot wounds here basically these are injuries from explosive mines cluster rockets and so on they are high energy explosives which leave incomparable damage us where the spirit or in my colleagues and i have been here since day one of the war and honestly we work 247 at the hospital i cant understand the enthusiasm of some to continue this war even if people dont die but there are still those seriously injured and adequate response is needed here to ensure a way to end.
