3:07 am
quite light hearted in the cube. and if it was chatted and then we walked in and it was just like, you could hear a pin drop. it was just the atmosphere just sway. like the utmost respect, silence it was just was overwhelming. actually. i just have seen on the tv yesterday few hours ago and then to be here now to leave after 12. and i think it's by 12 and a half hours. we've been in the queue. it's been worth it. 100 percent. i just, there's lots of things flushed in my head like lots of moments i'd seen on tv and thought this was probably the closest i ever got to her and take the i was able to say thank you for all she's done. didn't think about anything but her. yeah. amazing. we feel quite humbled actually. and yeah, just actually privilege that i've managed her to be there. and if a moment in history that we're probably never going to see again. but queens

3:19 am
after meetings in the national assembly, she was equally resolute and meeting again had a particular importance to us because of the focus on security following the illegal and deadly attacks. and as a, by the, as they hung up on the armenian territory. we strongly condemn those attacks. we, in our delegation on behalf of congress, which threatens prospects, are much ne, peace agreement, but pelosi wouldn't be drawn on how the u. s. might contribute to the peace process we were here to listen to. i mean, is security need, she said, but conceited. the russia had broken the seas. fathers currently in place initiated by the a series on the streets of the capitol protest is called for an end to the russian broken piece process under the collective security treaty organization, or c, s t o o. we have an alliance with russia, which is not protecting us, and we are at a dead end. we are like hostages in our own country,
3:20 am
but armenia is in europe and that is it. we are a european country. can you hear people are shouting out of c s c l out of c s t o o? is it? good? pulling out a colleague, louise merton won't agree. it's not you go romney. duncan does me. she was gotten what is it? no one knows exactly why, while everyone wants american support, no one can agree on how that might work in practice to connie sanchez, good, and here on the border talk of peace seems very far away. the recent outbreak of fighting has left these villages deserted. after farmers fled the shelling that hit the homes and the military moved in as bullying. the fact is that at this moment other by johnny's targeting civilians and the reason and the quick response from the international community it, which is not good in the vast grass lands and hills on the border. the pathway to
3:21 am
a permanent piece remains elusive and out of sight. tony chang al jazeera european, either by john has condemned nancy pelosi for her comments on the border conflict with armenia calling them a serious blow to peace efforts. it's foreign ministry described philosophy as a known pro armenian politician and branded her remarks as unsubstantiated and unfair as of age on says the latest fighting with the result of a large scale military provocation by or media. well, earlier my colleagues say, dan spoke to alex kosicki, who is the program director at the armenian national committee of america. he thinks the us, the u. s. should stop all military assistance desert by john to what extent do you think the comments by nancy pelosi will be understood as expressing official u. s. foreign policy rather than the the opinion of the speaker of the house of representatives. i think this delegation and the remarks by speak apollo c were an
3:22 am
important step towards demonstrating us commitment to upholding and defending human rights and democracy. especially in the face of authoritarian expansionism. but through the speaker explicitly condemning azerbaijan, illegal and unprovoked attack on armenia and on civilian populations in armenia, this is also a principle stepped towards holding azerbaijan to account for its aggression. but on that point, what we need now is to see these powerful words translated into our actual action to hold as her by john to account. and that must begin with the immediate suspension of all further military assistance to azerbaijan. you mention their principal stand against expansionism, but of course un security council resolutions 8228538th, 84, refer to the occupation of as airy, land by local armenian forces, right? so the expansionism, according to international law, these,
3:23 am
the occupation is the occupation of as airy territories. is this really about principles, or is this about politics for nancy pelosi? this is about principal b armenian people of arch soft as the armenians refer to it is the indigenous ancestral lands of the army in people. it has been inhabited by armenians for several thousands of years. the army in peter, i'll say, other un security council resolutions wrong them when they talk about the occupation of his airy territories. does that we were telling religion that where you're telling use the security council resolutions also wide explicitly to azerbaijan, to cease all aggressive actions against local army and populations. and so i'm talking to stephanie about an occupation, not a, but not about, sees fires. i can read to hear the text of a tape to refers to recently occupied areas of azerbaijan, the same sentence in 853884, cause upon armenia to stop, to ensure that their forces are not provided armenian forces not provided with the
3:24 am
means to extend their military campaign further, right is the un security council got it wrong? and it also called and asked by john to cease all aggression against the people, and did not at all undermine the fundamental right to self determination of the armenians of ox, off to live peacefully and freely in their lands, free from persecution at the hands of azerbaijan. which is what was occurring at the time of the conflict when hundreds of thousands of army and civilians were forced from their homes and are where systematically discriminated against and prosecuted during pogroms across the country. at charles stratford reports from the town of shoshone, which was retained by the series in the war with our media in 2020. the town you can see behind me in the valley there is water. the armenians calls their planet, killed the ass aries, give it another name, they call it a con ken dees, the perma kurt is called into the air is occupied illegally by the armenians. this is very much a frontline in the self declared republic of nagondo. carry back
3:25 am
a republic that not a single country, not even armenia recognizes. now this particular area, as every forces took back control of it in 2020 after what they describe is it being occupied by armenians for 30 years. interestingly, oscar the camera man. if you could pull down and have a look at the road down here, this road is called the latch in corridor. it is the only road that connects the panic, pert with the border of armenia, and it is regularly a flash point. it is sir, policed by russian peacekeepers in the last 1020 minutes or so. we've seen what we understand is armenian military moving along. it. people here tell us that there are regular skirmishes. heard in the surrounding hills between what they say could well be power, military armenian power, paramilitary groups, and, and, and as airy fighters here as area military here. but we've also seen in this town
3:26 am
at the town of sasha some incredible rebuilding that's been going on in the last couple of years. the r, as air is very keen to begin reconstruction, they are being very successful and very quick in rebuilding roads, hotels, renovating mosques. the church here as well. there is a huge infrastructure push going on here. a russia has intensified it strikes on ukrainian civilian infrastructure of the past week following setbacks on the battlefield maps. according to the british defense ministry, ukraine recently recaptured a large sway of the north eastern car cave region. a special trains are running for residence, a valley clear who want to return home, following 6 months of russian occupation. listen to what they had to say. the russian army wants to recruit contract soldiers to fight in ukraine. mobile
3:27 am

3:28 am
people destroying temples of afro brazilian religions like m. bonder and come dom blake politics has been responsible for the increase of intolerance in all senses. and most of those carrying out the attacks a radical evan, joe report, christian, according to coalition fighting religious intolerance was global. so a big deal was, what worries us is that many of those responsible for verbal and physical aggressions, a public figures, civil servants, city and state legislators, mares and congressman, even president both an hour and his wife that spurred in polar as good as speech in a country which has a secular state. where do you at 1st lady me, shaylee bernardo and of an jellicoe christian has been campaigning for her husband's reelection, telling voters that he was chosen by gone to save brazil from evil filtering. barbara, probably the majority of people hear more about ro, brazilian religion because they have been the major, the good religious in paula,
