a deeper understanding of the political situation everyone has taken a step towards returning to legality and deciding to stabilize the present situation in adherence to the lord many deputies presented my candidacy to the post of prime minister and now i have accepted these powers of prime minister i am grateful for the deep trust that has been placed in supposing my candidacy for this position. charles trafford is in bishkek and has more on the new prime minister. it's manslaughter and your power of that a lot of people have been speaking very disparagingly of he was freed by protesters his supporters. in the post-election chaos on monday night he was serving an 11 year jail term for kidnapping. he all week has been. basically quite quite outspoken and he's considered to have a very sort of nationalist tendencies a lot of support amongst the the rural communities rural kyrgyzstan his supporters
2:06 am
very happy with this disappointment officially of him as the new pm they're celebrating not far from here but of course you know his legal status is still can be called into question considering that as i say last this time last week he was serving an 11 year jail term. a ceasefire between armenia and azerbaijan is largely holding but in the last few hours nagorno-karabakh regional capital has been hit for the past 2 weeks both countries have been fighting over the disputed region the truce allows them to exchange prisoners and recover bodies but it's with force now from the panic in the breakaway province. step and has taken a battering these last 2 weeks as a buyer john has thrown the latest high tech israeli and turkey supplied weaponry at this town and the surrounding areas of nagorno-karabakh the ceasefire has allowed people to risk emerging from their shelters. a cease fire is good certainly
2:07 am
good but the problem must be solved you can't have a cease fire and several years later war again a cease fire must solve the problem that is our independence. independence is very unlikely this is internationally recognized as azerbaijani territory but it's governed by ethnic armenians a previous ceasefire lasted more than 26 years but the status of nagorno karabakh went on resolved a ceasefire allows both sides to assess the capabilities of each other and for the armenians there must be a new appreciation of the technically advanced and destructive weaponry that the adversary hands. what has surprised armenians in karabakh is turkey's open support for azerbaijan if one of the results were a direct involvement of told q. and i don't see that told he's going to pull out from the region it means that we
2:08 am
have to somehow you know change some geopolitical approaches so far with state strengths and. for the string should strengthen our relations with brows of countries but also. the united states iran and china. in the is very town of tartar these buildings were hit by armenian artillery before the cease fire we don't support the ceasefire our enemy shall face what they deserve maybe 10 times more than what they did to us before these were homes built for some of the 10s of thousands of his areas displaced from territory next to karabakh that armenia talk in the 190124 war now they're on the move again the issue is that an international community or a serious group or chairs should take responsibility and transforms that current moment a change in momentum of status quo into the durable peace is an article of focus on

israel of armenian troops from so quiet that it was it was a bit. russia says armenia and azerbaijan have agreed to substantive peace talks for them to work both sides will have to make the sort of compromises on territorial sovereignty that they've never been willing to make before. really to burn its myth out of syria stop panacur it nagorno-karabakh. well jimmy remember there is a regional analysts for the caucasus region and she says it will take a lot more external interference to make a difference in the conflict i think we have to understand that as a by john has been pro-choice saying weapons from israel turkey which is a nato country and russia for the last i would say 30 years especially from russia which means that the weaponry that we have seen on the ground in the horn of karbala and in the surrounding areas are not the weapons that as a bridge on per chase 2 weeks ago. so it's not even turkey's
2:10 am
involvement if you will in this conflict militarily wouldn't affect the balance of power either because as your wonderful reporting just mentioned there by johnny army has been much more well pat it's much more numerous and it had a great support clearly without russia's support for i mean. i don't think i mean i would be able to even stay in the conflict zone because we have seen reports about clearly civilian population leaving and we're knickerbocker now and the areas where the shelling has been taken place clearly russia is to courting armenia by providing this weapons to free. and but even that would not i would say significantly change the balance on the ground if it were a media wants to seriously advance i suppose without more russia's
