2:04 pm
ministers have been holding talks in moscow in june may remember 20 indian soldiers killed in hand to hand combat with chinese troops in the region it's not known how many chinese soldiers were actually hurt in that holds occasion now we have this 5 point plan that includes existing border agreements new delhi in beijing of also agreed to quickly disengage with the use of firearms along the border already bob both sides have committed to continue talking through diplomatic and military channels and to speed up the so-called trust building measures here is a list with her on them now with more from new delhi. there's been no official reaction from the indian government to this agreement yet but we know that the defense minister is holding a meeting with the national security advisor with the chief of defense staff and with the chiefs of the army the navy and the air force to discuss the situation on the border and the main time this agreement to deescalate has been met with
2:05 pm
a lot of skepticism and dia by independent experts who say that the agreement is lacking any operational details on how the militaries are going to disengage exactly and the skepticism is because although the foreign ministers meeting with the highest face to face highest level face to face meeting between the 2 sides since the current standoff began in may they have been many rounds of talks on many levels always ending with the agreement to deescalate and yet despite the talks taking place we saw the worst tensions between the 2 countries in june when 20 indian soldiers were killed those were the 1st deaths in 50 years and despite both countries defense ministers meeting on friday and agreeing to deescalate they had both sides just a few days they said earlier on this week. he was in each other of firing warning shots in the air for the 1st time in $45.00 guineas and so everyone here is very
2:06 pm
much waiting to see what if anything comes out of the defense ministry meeting that's taking place so that's the word from india now from beijing. china's foreign ministry released a statement reiterating some of the comments from one the the foreign minister and these were very positive overall he said that china and india should stop viewing huge other's competitors and work more closely as partners they should stop this atmosphere of confrontation and really start to cooperate and also build mutual trust rather than suspicion he also said that china india and relations right across words and there was no obstacle that either side couldn't overcome and working more closely together when it comes to chinese state media the meeting was also very much lauded it had a picture in the front of the global times chinese state media newspaper of the chinese indian foreign minister along with the russian foreign minister but in terms of chinese state media that's where the friendly tone in this paper at least stopped there was much skepticism instead expressed with the global times editors
2:07 pm
saying that the implementation of this 5 point consensus really depended on india being able to keep up its side of the bargain and otherwise unless india followed through this would be little more than what he called paper talk now this wind of this torrent at least really is in line with what we've heard from beijing's foreign ministry of the past few weeks and chinese state media being quite aggressive saying that china would not hesitate to defend its sovereignty and also that india should be careful because essentially india's military is norm that for china but one interesting we did say in a statement also that there was a sense of urgency in terms of both sides having to create actions in order to prevent any further skirmishes including what he said was disengaging contact at the border and pulling back any crosswind personnel so that at the same time we've seen some mismatch mixed messaging also from chinese state media with with reports of chinese troops really building up their presence on the border drones being
2:08 pm
flown in a special operations troops being parachuted in as well so we'll really have to watch closely to see whether china removes or at least pulls back some of those troops as a result of this 5 point plan being announced. well water borne diseases are now a growing threat in sudan following the worst floods there in a century at least 100 people have been killed and 800000 homes destroyed or damaged the nile river had risen to its highest level since records began we've got . here with us now president of the sudan red crescent society on skype from khartoum thank you for your time sir i know you must be very busy tell us about how the efforts are going to get aid to people who need it. so there is a recent started it is population right from the beginning of this crisis. i mean the grasses of the head the end. which came before the flooding of the night

2:15 pm
the top stories this hour on al-jazeera $1010.00 the e.u. countries have agreed to take in more than $400.00 unaccompanied minors after fires gusted europe's largest refugee camp in greece thousands of refugees and migrants spend a 3rd night without shelter and little food on the island of life force india and china have agreed to deescalate tensions between the countries these days after shots were fired across the border for the 1st time in 45 years. a mortar borne diseases are a growing threat in sudan following catastrophic flooding the worst flooding in a century in fact has killed at least 100 sudanese and destroyed or damaged 100000 so. russia says it is asking germany for access to question the opposition figure alexina valmy who's currently recovering in berlin russian police say they traced the opposition leader's movements and what he drank
2:16 pm
before he fell ill they are also trying to locate a witness who they say has left the country and found it was airlifted from siberia to germany last month and spent days in a medically induced coma german experts say he was poisoned with the nerve agent novacek. so on that point lawrence they used following developments in london it's so hard to see the germans really cooperating with this russian request. yes yes i agree with you entirely i mean clearly the biggest development over the last few days remains that novelli is improving he's not better but he's going to get better and he's already said that he has a strong recollection of all the events that happened to him leading up to the point to which he collapsed leaving topspin inside the area faced with the russians have now said that they've retraced his steps as well they say they know the name of the cafe that he went to. tomsk airport. and as you say they've they've said
2:17 pm
under under obviously a lot of pressure now from germany to prove it and the rest of the west are pretty doing something they've said they want to send their own investigators over i think it's i think it's inconceivable that the germans would exceed to that would let it happen they've said by the way they haven't had that request yet anyway but given that they've said that they're absolutely convinced in their own minds it's not shock and that they want the russians to carry out a proper investigation and letting chemical weapons experts into russia and that i think is where they say they want to leave it at the moment and so in that sense they still this sense of sort of pass that we've been talking about for some time particularly given that the crime if it was a crime was on was on russian soil really it seems to me to be honest with you from this distance that the biggest question is now going to be what does in the valley himself do once he's capable of leaving hospital would you assume will be in the coming days or weeks does he try to go back to russia even though he's bound to think there's a contingency right to his life in doing that if he does want to go back to russia
2:18 pm
will the russians let the mean and if they don't let him in what does that say or does he carry on trying to remain in exile and opponents of president putin from from a different country if he does that does that necessarily imply there's lives any say of them if he goes back to russia good points thank you lawrence lee following the story for us from london thank you now britain signed a trade deal with japan its 1st since leaving the european union back in january the free trade agreements with only $20000000000.00 british government ministers say 99 percent of exports to japan will be terra free as i say technology financial and manufacturing firms will benefit in particular. france is reporting a new record daily high almost 10000 new infections of corona virus in the past 24 hours ministers and health experts are meeting to discuss the increased restrictions the number of patients in intensive care units is also risen creating
