10:02 am
but it hasn't explain how they will be re integrated. hello, some of inch of a to is in zine, golan close to, and a going to count rebecca salma. you've been witness these last few days to an exit this of ethnic armenians. tell us what's happening now of what is more of the same of what we've been seeing the last few days. only a 3rd of the population off this enclave of new gordon. a car box is left not just as the deepest divine occurred or fun can be, but i live close by settlements like hold you late. and now this has been that we're getting reports that most of these bases represent a picture of a ghost out. there are some villages who have gone close to the russian peacekeepers and staying closer to them, where the majority of them have left. there are some old people who say that they will not leave their homes fine, and they will continue to stay. but the majority of people who beeping speaking to who spoke to us on the way going from us, or by john into, i mean,
10:03 am
he had told us that they feel they don't have an option. this is the only way forward because there is a whole background to this. they've been witnessing hostilities for the last 3 decades. and they've been taking part many of the men in the fight against us or by john. so they do not see how they can be integrated on. it's bob, the otherwise any government has been responding to state ones that have been coming from armenia on the, on the grounds of there might be an ethic, tenzing thing that it is understandable that the armenians are finding it hard to comprehend with what is happening because they set up a state within other by johnny board is that he has a go ended of disintegrating in front of them. so more of the same of what you be seeing, people living with whatever they have this the other by signing up and saying that it will provide buses to the people who do not have cars and want to leave so that they can, their transfer is going to be easier, and it has set up a web portal where people can go and register and then the process of the integration on social and humanitarian and other grounds can begin,
10:04 am
but it is going to be a long and tedious process. once i started by johnny administration takes complete control of the name of selma. i understand that as ethnic armenians leave, the men in particular are being asked to leave the car as you've reported on this and in previous days and they're being aidid and checked. and that's raise some suspicions as to, as a, by john's intentions talk to us about that as well. there being the number of arrests that have been made has been the form of a foreign minister of that self declared region adviser to the president who surrendered to the other by joining forces. and they have also released the list of people who they are looking for. people who are there by johnny guffman says, have been involved and what it calls for crimes people who been involved in the killing of civilians as well as other by johnny forces. and they, it is going to be charging them on terrorism offenses because all of these crimes, according to, as of right, john happened on its soil. so it is doing this violated arresting that list
10:05 am
of people who it says are a few dozen individuals. but it is guaranteeing the safety of the people who are leaving behind and leaving the behind their homes in to find the code or function they have you been speaking to the men who were disembarking from their vehicles. so essentially what it, what happens is that when a car reaches other badge on the check point, all of the men apart from the driver are austin, disembark. the car is checked for any weapons or any to contraband. and then it is allowed to leave so far people have just been coming with their belongings. it's a very quick process. them and just this and but go to the other side. and then once the car passes through they, they get on it and move on to it. and this is what i thought. but i knew for sure the thing that if you're to civilian, if, even if you're somebody who is boss of the pet them into 2 4th and a half surrender, now you do not have anything to fear, but it is not something that now you can see 2 thirds of the ethnic armenians are ready to believe. absolutely are some
10:06 am
a bunch of aid reporting there. thank you very much. so years of mutual distrust and violence and war between the neighboring countries made many ethnic armenians fear. the prospect of i'll say, by johns rule, as a sama was talking about, there were burnett smith reports from our maintenance capital. now you're over of this laundry will probably never be taken in by the women who hung get down to dry the self. the glad state of they're going to kind of relax. finally so quickly it's asked me to call meeting and population out only minutes. dipaq the rapid exit just driven by sees of ethnic cleansing by as the by john few people accepted assurances from the government and back to that they would be safe. the problem is that my, my c does the top top to the ground. i don't know, but i guess hopefully i know that i have to, i know,
10:07 am
but we try to forget people who didn't bump shelters when i was about john launched it's lightning military offensive on the going no kind of back as russian peacekeepers to the side. it didn't take long for the as a by john is to break through the ethnic on medians. then defenses. 9 days later, most of the population of a 120000 has gone. those still here trying to lead. it is impossible to find 2 though i met 2 women. they are ready to pay like $200.00 for right here. i have some fuse flag is. i don't base our eyes, you know, in to, to met them over 30 years. tens of thousands of people have died fighting for and against the self declared republic. i'm to go on. ok. now, almost in an instant,
10:08 am
it's gone. it is for they all meetings, a national tragedy. now the government team was trying to accommodate the southern an unexpected influx of as many as before, 2000 families bonus ms. alger 0. yes. so here's the timeline of this conflict. the goto camera back was established as an economist region under the soviet union, in 1988 when ethic arsenic armenians demanding to live under soviet armenia is rule . 1991 after the fall of the ussr and are going to kind of back declared independence triggering a war between our media and as the by john or media gain control of the garner camera back then. and by 1993 occupied 20 percent of as a by john's territory. russia broker to cease fire a year later. border skirmishes have broken out over the years in 2020 the, as the buyers on the military reclaimed to most of its territory and a major offensive leading our media with a smaller portion of the going to count back lauren's was,
10:09 am
is associated fellow at the russian you raise your program at chatham house, he's also the author of our media, and also by john anatomy of a rivalry. you're joining us from london, sir. look, the 2 questions i think we really want answers to what's, what's going to happen to the ethnic armenians and what's going to happen to the land that they're leaving behind a newborn new camera back. maybe let's start with ask that one. what does as a, by john intend to do what to do with this territory now that they've fully regained control as well. they are gathered by joint estates is now taking over control of territory that is essentially emptied and unclenched of its population. that was prior to the conflicted version in 1988, an aesthetically as a bi johnny population. that was a minority that looked alongside on medians in colorado. so i would expect that to be a great efforts to ensure the return of this population. and i think, you know,
10:10 am
that the best case scenario is that they would be living alongside perhaps some very small numbers of older on medians. as you indicated in your report, some older people do not want to move to armenia. and this will be the feature of the region as about john is very keen to develop connectivity and to open up the region. and i think we will see more more of this connectivity piece, building discourse. but at the community level, i think the national tensions and ethnic resentments, unfortunately, will remain as a result of what's happened in these 2 weeks. when you say ethic resentment, intention, what would that look like? a talking about classes. are you talking about military military, anything, border operations or you just talking about 2 groups of people who simply do not like each other. a web attention, the bows. what we will see, i think, you know, media is but a car back on union, diaspora,
10:11 am
the internal diaspora will know for them in the country and will become the hold of a memory, the median memories of car assuming that there are as about johnny refugees were displaced from sophie's told me that in the late 19 eighties and they to have a memory about media. so i think we will see a whole new phase of memory was between the 2 nations. in terms of classes on the ground as a by john has a huge, with a tree advantage that there are pockets of media. that's a web as about johnny polls as a cover lead, located following crashes, since the 2020 goal. so i think the, it's very important that talks indigo. she ations do continue with the interest state level in order to regulate this. but you know, collection has become normalized in this conflict. unfortunately, lawrence boards associate fellow with the russian you ration program at chatham. alice, thank you very much. thank you. are medians living 11 and have protested outside

10:15 am
during this campaign, a real position as continued to be critical of the system in east? what to me as we indicated that it is an absolute mona key of things. so i to the, so it has been in power for 57 years. and critics say that the unlimited freedoms in this country. but you know, when hearing from the king from he's government, from the cabinet. they've said that they are, he has limited powers that are governed by the constitution, and this is why we have a process like the one we're seeing today, these parliamentary elections. we would, people can come out and vote for parliamentary representatives. but the opposition, as at some point, also call a hold of the foss, a sham, and saying that people who are elected to have to tow the line and that they want fall more democratic freedoms. and one of the things that also has contributed to some of the frustration is the economy. at least 60 percent of the people in this
