started this is to be happening on the observation not of a red cross he also said that the parties agreed to start substantial negotiations and the he also said that the parties agreed that the form of those does negotiation is not going to change which i think means that it will stay within the ois see minsk a group core chaired by russia france and united states a group that has been established in the ninety's to and to deal regional conflict that has been frozen since then so what is to follow what is for us to see is whether days cease fire is indeed going to happen as agreed if it is really going to come down to the exchange of prisoners and if the parties are really willing to start negotiating and to really return to the negotiating table to solve this decades long conflict in the garden or could i bought. a little more from soon

cause you know blue who reports remove various you. it's the 1st stark contact known to have taken place between our mania and azerbaijan since the new fighting broke out in the soviet republics 3 decade old conflict on september 27th. a pre-christian year again you're a ceasefire has been declared from 12 o'clock on october 18th for humanitarian purposes to exchange prisoners in the bodies of the did it will be done under the guidance of the international red cross the moscow talks came after that survey john foreign minister attended talks in geneva with the french u.s. and russian on warsaw thursday merely that it would nearly double we're committed to a peaceful settlement of the karabakh conflict in a ready to resume the peace process in accordance with the recent statements of the presidents and foreign ministers of the o s e e minsk group. but just as the talks in moscow began those are bridge on president and how malia said there could be no peace if i mean your continue to insist that

no one a kind of iraq was part of its territory. by john. well no harm of humanity karabakh is azerbaijan everyone should know this including those in charge of our media today i tell them again that if they commit fraud after the moscow talks they will regret it we will take back our lanes peacefully or through war on a quickly we want to organize it peacefully we give armenia one last chance for the last 2 days efforts to stop the fighting between our many and as our john has been held while the battles in and iraq are going to car about continue to rage it still remains to be seen whether this latest international effort to achieve a cease fire well the successful. the fighting is the worst since 199194 war that killed an estimated 30000 people and ended with a cease fire that has been her critically violated. as a bridge on says that 31 hours there is civilians have been killed and 168 wounded

since september 27th it has not disclosed information about military casualties or thirty's i'm not going to say 376 of its military personnel and 22 civilians have been killed during the day imperial. al-jazeera miniature resurveyed. troops have been ordered into the capital of kurdistan of the days of chaos over the last week's parliamentary elections the results are now be declared invalid and the president is promising to resign but he's also the clear state of emergency made fears that political rivalries could explode into violence from his child strafford. in the early afternoon on friday our 2 square began filling up with supporters of various opposition parties. presidents are in by june because of said he will resign after a new cabinet is voted by parliament but many protesters here want more than that

they're angry with politicians who they accuse of years of corruption and economic mismanagement. many want a whole scale change of what they describe as an old guard leadership that has failed this country and rig the elections by buying votes and they're angry with this man. who they say was illegally made prime minister of the he too was freed from jail by supporters in the protests. is a full member of parliament that was serving 11 years for kidnapping. as opposition supporters of various parties chances in the square a group of his supporters bonce through the crowd of fools and stones were hurled and many people fled. the situation in the square up until 10 minutes ago it was peaceful that all changed when supporters of the new prime minister. claim in there were clashes. and they've now taken control of the statue on a small holders of other offices to bring it up here for the majority the rest is

just one part of supporters insists he is the legitimate prime minister. this video appears to show the moment a gunman tried to assassinate cuba's storms former president almas back at them by of was just that was only hours before he appeared for the 1st time in public since being freed from jail by supporters during protests over last week's parliamentary election results. and some by of who was jailed last year for corruption was unhurt in the attack the central election committee an old sunday's election results of the widespread vote buying the opposition says pro-government parties were most to blame since then kyrgyzstan has descended into chaos. just trying to feeling nobody explains anything to us and totally confused by the situation there is

a great sense of our sentence here it's been days now and people are afraid i don't want violence. president jeenbekov has declared a state of emergency which will be voted on in an emergency parliamentary session on saturday he says it's necessary to prevent ome to confrontation between rival groups many people here say their country is on the brink stratford al-jazeera bishkek. the 2nd u.s. presidential debate between donald trump and his democratic rival joe biden has been canceled it was scheduled to take place next week let's speak straightaway to kristen so that we could join us live from new york of course and say. the 2nd presidential debates to be held to it's going to be virtual at one point what's the latest i'm that's right the commission for presidential debates had wanted to make the october 15th the big virtual because that would be about 2 weeks after the president tested positive for

a coronavirus. the president refused to do that he didn't want a virtual debate he wanted to push it back if anything joe biden didn't want to push it back so the commission announced that the debate has been canceled in fact both of the candidates have rescheduled events for that evening public events for that evening and we heard from president charm tonight he gave his 1st on camera interview in which he talked about how good he was feeling and how he wanted to get back out there talked about how the drug regeneration had helped him this experimental drug had been helping him and also was asked about his test results from the most recent test because we'd yet to confirm that he had tested negative now for the virus he gave a rather vague answer on that front saying that he was at the bottom of the scale

if not completely free. person there is also keen to get out in front of the people his name is talk about this white house events tomorrow saturday and also the rally coming up in on monday it would not even sure if he's still contagious will. absolutely and that is the president's. tactic here he's trying to show that he's healthy that he's strong he's very eager to get back on the campaign trail so while refusing to hold a virtual debate he's going ahead with these public events including one at the white house on saturday which will be held outside the president is expected to address the crowd from a balcony the crowd is being required to wear masks and get temperature checks on the way and but some are still questioning whether or not this is the right move and he's also got a rally planned for florida on monday again the optics of concern for

considering it will be less than 2 weeks since he 1st contracted the virus but the president plowing ahead hoping to maintain his image and send the message that the coronavirus doesn't have to dominate everyone's life others saying that's the wrong message to be sending considering that some 210000 plus americans have died from it or a christian thanks very much for the christian salute the new york let's continue with this let's bring in peter matthews in los angeles he's a professor of political science at cypress university piedmontese welcome to the program 1st i'd like to think you get your view of how you assess where president trump is that right now and and how is it while you see him the way that is pivoting on cable negotiations canceling this virtual debate now who see a big number event at the white house with all that contagion happened in the rose

garden and then a rally again on monday what's your assessment of him. it's all of it remarkable because if you think about it the person who's behind in the polls would like to have a debate normally speaking normal can't leave this time the president doesn't really want to answer questions directly from voters because this was the one debate in which the voters were asked the questions directly he didn't want to virtual debate to get also the moderates could control his response to the naked more understandable for both sides like the 1st debate so i think that he was concerned about and answered a lot of questions directly and didn't want to broach a little bit so that's going to hurt him i think because you get 73000000 people in the audience and it is the largest what is he going to have people on both sides and the middle independent voters will be listening and watching and yet he didn't want to do it i think that hurt him to not do it was such a larger extent so in theory anyone more possible opportunity to debate and that's october the 22nd in nashville i think it is which is just 12 days before the

elections i think the bigger for that. that one they both confirm both sides have confirmed that there will be at the national debate it will be our ally it all be in person it's what we were to also i think present trophy was more comfortable with that and joe biden was comparably the one so that should be going on with social distancing with very strict bass wearing in those kinds of things among all the audience members so it will go on the 22nd to be very close to the election the 3rd is the election as you know and things could to you know know the swing states think about it by the middle or all right now he's got a huge advantage in the nationwide hollywood about 10 percent or more and in the states there are used to went for trump and 2016 and a vast majority biden is leading by between 3 and 7 points since like michigan pennsylvania wisconsin the rossiter so important swing states i think they think the president should agree to debate and be seen by as many people as possible but

you know he's he's that good or a part of ours that we may still have it we don't know really we haven't got much information about it it's very important we've norris exactly work but it could explain things this is the president's political standing is taken a real hit is now down as you say down in the polls a lot so what would it take for things to turn around his way well have it's very difficult a miracle perhaps and you know let's say he the code that seemed came out but that's totally unlikely you can't come up with the election and it wouldn't be safe you did so that's i think pretty looking pretty pretty bleak for his campaign. i really can't imagine this is the worst time you could have been hit by getting sick which means you can't even go out and campaign fully with the thousands of people who actually have of those airplane hangars that's setting a back also in terms of his own mood and his buoyancy it's been it's really been hurt so i really can't say what will turn it around to be honest with i don't see too much turning around it was point all right but it will appreciate your

perspective in a sense very much indeed peter mathews a professor of political science at cypress college thank you. thank you yes thank you oh still ahead here on out is there a why thousands of protesters in chile are angry and fed up with a government. losing ground fison deforestation is slowly chipping away at brazil's amazon rain forest to shrink by day. but. we have some really nasty conditions now moving across japan in the form of typhoon chan home slow moving system this one that is the position of the storm at the moment just easing to the southeast of key issue would have oran through that eastern side of honshu as we go on through sas day with some very heavy bursts of

azerbaijan have agreed on a cease fire starting on saturday countries have been fighting over the disputed the corner of her back region russia's foreign minister sergey lavrov amounts of troops in moscow after 10 hours for. the president has declared a state of emergency in a bid to end on the rest following the disputed parliamentary elections the military has been deployed to the capital bishkek to enforce the measure of. a 2nd u.s. presidential debate between donald trump and his democratic rival joe biden has been canceled it was scheduled to take place next week organizers wanted to hold the 1st actually up to tropical coronavirus but president refused. now the number of new daily coronavirus infections worldwide has passed 350000 for the 1st time it's really was the 1st country in europe to be hit hard by covert 1000 and had managed to get its outbreak and under control but now the number of new cases is surging

again to its highest level since march and it is the same story in france where infection rates are at levels not seen since the start of its outbreak it recorded 20000 new cases on friday alone and spain has now imposed a state of emergency on its capital madrid to try contain a new wave of infections there people are barred from leaving the city except for work for school or for medical reasons let's speak now to geoffrey slow going to choose the deputy director for the national center for disaster preparedness at columbia university he says the increase in infections is not surprising. with other coronaviruses a lot of other respiratory illnesses we do see a seasonality we see more transmissibility as temperatures go down as humidity goes down and it's not clear exactly what's going on here but evidence is pointing in the direction that we may not get quite as much mileage out of the social distancing that we have been in the summertime where temperatures are warmer you

can do more outside activities so so we have to keep an eye on what's working and what's not working and also not make the assumption that just because it worked the 1st time around it's going to be sufficient the next time it's going to have to be driven by the data and it's going to have to adjust as the conditions within communities within nations and across the world it's all been this ongoing pandemic there's a number of different sort of thoughts on this there's some evidence that some bias is actually transmit easier when you have these lower temperatures and lower humidity there's also people are indoors a lot more they're not outside able to do as many outside activities there's even things with just the immune system with the lower angle of the sun less vitamin d. production things like that so there's there's a variety of different factors that could come together precisely which weighs on how much particularly with a novel virus remains to be seen but we do know that we do see the seasonality with respiratory illnesses and i have been concerned about this since the beginning of the pandemic that although we were seeing this wave in early spring very late winter that the fall and the winter of 2020 was very likely to be another wave in

a tough season and unfortunately signs are pointing back way with this latest data cuba will reopen to international tourism starting next week the island nation closed its borders and managed to contain the spread of crude a virus prime minister. says the majority of provinces will be open to tourists but the capital have will remain closed. the u.k. government has been warned that tens of thousands more lives will be lost to cancer unless it does more to reduce a backlog of screening and treatment hospitals have been forced to drastically reduce counter service is due to the pandemic under simmons as more. how long will i be around here. and. our kelly smith's magnetic personality brought people together on social media sharing a zest for life they all have one thing in common cancer with covert cases
