for one territory these 2 weeks of conflict have only inflamed old antagonisms. for more i'm joined now by amanda paul senior policy analyst at the european policy center and brussels she focuses on issues related to russian foreign policy and their phone or soviet republics and eurasia amanda thanks for coming in today or going back and forth how much of a truce is this really. i don't think it's much much of a truth at all i mean i was it's already been mentioned the ceasefire agreement has been broken and several times. so i think we have a very dangerous situation on the ground and we just saw a report about people from the regional capital returning home to assess the damage caused during this 2 weeks of intense fighting how big is the humanitarian crisis caused by all of this. i mean 1st of all i don't think that
9:10 am
anybody should be returning back to their homes because. the situation is still ongoing and the humanitarian crisis is massive not just from the fighting these days but i mean when we go back to the original war. in that in the early 1990 s. the humanitarian crisis that was it was massive as well we know that nearly 1000000 other by chinese would have placed along with armenians any civilian. that's lost is a tragedy and they should be avoided at all costs. you say this is not much of a truce where does this leave efforts to find a peaceful solution to this conflict well i think we're in a very difficult place because the efforts of president putin i mean it took 8 or 9 hours i believe to get this temporary truce i've already been you know smashed
9:11 am
basically within 24 hours i can see that president putin is doing diplomacy around the place he had a conversation with president rouhani of iran because it's obviously urgent that a new more concrete cease fire. is put into place but i mean i think he's found out that by johnny site i mean there was a lot of negative sentiment from the population about the ceasefire because they believe. that it was just something that was going to stall letter to recuperate the lands that they have lost so there needs to be something concrete that that's agreed that would guarantee. that either by john is going to be able to get some of its territory back some sort of timetable or at least some sort of internationally agreed document ahead of this amanda paul senior policy analyst at the european policy center and brussels thank you very much for your insights thank you.
