continue to trade blows over the disputed territory of. reports of strikes on the region's capital. throws its full weight behind. the president. will continue to stand. by all means and with all its heart immediately. the region will return to peace. with bella ruse still.

the french president meets the country's exiled opposition leader raised and maybe a. second. trump joe biden. said the 1st us presidential debate. you're tuning in from across the world are welcome to moscow and to r.t. international my means you know. hostilities between armenia and azerbaijan continued into a 3rd day and what's the worst flare up of an old territorial dispute since a truce was agreed a quarter of a century ago violence between the nations on sunday with both laying claim to the nagorno-karabakh region.

reports claim that they're helping earth strikes in the disputed area our correspondent in dorset donna who is currently in the capital of nagorno-karabakh a raid sirens have been sounding across the city on locals have been and bites to take shelter. instapundit the capital of the disputed nagorno-karabakh region this morning began with the sounds of explosions and air raid sirens an unmanned drone was shot down we saw the famed smoke above the mountains which are right behind me the military has told me it was a small drone but size is not of the essence here apparently such small you avi's actually even deadlier than the large ones because they are designed to specifically eliminate large groups of people they're designed to target personnel not vehicles or machines that's how yet another day of brutal fighting begins here in the gorn a cab back there are no signs that the intensity of this fighting is receding on

the contrary the armenian defense ministry has said that its army base in mania on armenian soil came under the attack of the as are by joining forces if this is indeed true this would mean that this conflict has spilled beyond the borders of this disputed region and now in tangles armenia directly and this could be the beginning of the escalation of this conflict into an even larger and more deadly war. surprise john for its part strongly rejects the claim that it by all means armenian territory let's show you some footage from the. city tar tar close to the nagorno-karabakh region the nation's defense ministry claims armenian shells hit civilian targets on a local court building along with some housing was left damaged too meanwhile journalists are still awaiting permission to enter and report from azerbaijan among

them and our senior correspondent morocco's the. another day and there is still be no response from the zip by johnny site to all the journalists and correspondents and media outlets that have. followed requests for entry to as if i john to be allowed to work and to cover the conflict from the as if i tried inside so far they have been ignoring every request and nobody's been able to get a non-so we've heard directly excuses about the wartime emergency said about john we've also heard directly fuses about new flights going through is that by john but there are flights from here from istanbul for example to but to with regards to what is happening on the ground there has been unfortunately more escalation parable videos emerging from the conflicts are very difficult to verify for now but showing countable number of vehicles tanks armored personnel carriers destroyed. videos showing infantry being shot down corpses lining fields there's also

beat unfortunately an escalation with the weapons that are being used now we're hearing reports of. multiple rocket launchers systems being deployed to the combat zone i mean ia coming out saying that about john's actions and leave them no option but to deploy long range much more powerful weapons. casualties of course also unfortunately mounting is headed by john has just come out saying 10 civilians have died 30 have been killed in what they claim was meenie and shelling the. yesterday said that in the 1st 2 days of combat. $86.00 soldiers

have been killed hundreds hundreds more wounded we're also seeing an escalation on the diplomatic front there is growing outrage among the international community and the global stage leader after leader nation after nation call in both sides to deescalate but of course getting them to stop shooting is the most difficult part noticeably absent though from this chorus of international leaders are calling for calm calling for deescalation is turkey edouard has firmly backed the head by judging side laying the blame for the conflict entirely on the armenians. azerbaijan talking once again condemn a media who attacked the soil on sunday turkey will continue to stand by his friend and brother in azerbaijan by all means and with all its heart it is time to bring an end to the regional crisis started with the occupation of new goanna karabakh

when some media immediately leaves the territory it is occupying the region will return to peace and harmony russia also trying to mediate a cease fire station of hostilities after vladimir putin's telephone conversation with the leaders of both sides i mean and this is about john the u.n. secretary general calling the by johnny president aliyev yesterday imploring him to cease hostilities if imploring him to return to negotiations angela merkel among the latest leaders to to call both sides again asking them to do the same to stop shooting into the return to the goshi ations the u.n. security council session has also been set to discuss what the international community could do to bring this violence to an end. speaking from istanbul nagorno-karabakh meanwhile is one of several border disputes remaining from the collapse of the soviet union the republic seceded from azerbaijan in 1988

on the 3rd itself independent however the enclave predominantly populated by armenians is not widely recognized as an independent state with more background on the history of the conflict has probably bucko. it's the latest flare up in a conflict that straggled on for almost 40 years in the. nagorno-karabakh is in the south caucasus it's internationally recognized as part of their by jan but is controlled by ethnic armenians and backed by armenian forces as a result the remote region has become a defacto breakaway republic. the near 40 year old conflict stems from the way the borders were redrawn during the breakup of the soviet union with both on media and azerbaijan claiming nagorno-karabakh as there are. in the early ninety's

hostilities between the 2 neighbors led to a full scale war that killed more than 30000 civilians and ended with a russian brokered cease fire in 1994. since then there have been regular skirmishes in the area but the latest flare up has been the most violent in the last 20 years the conflict has international ramifications russia has traditionally supported our media and provided weapons for its military while azerbaijan is a major oil exporter to here and that is backed by turkey. doesn't sound from the rhetoric that's coming out of the of the saud that leave the saudi particularly king to talk. and you know this would be a problematic conflict even without outside forces potentially being drawn in

on both sides the escalation we're seeing today is a bit of a mystery because it seems to have blown up out of a blue sky. but obviously the conflict itself goes back to the ninety's initially and also of course to the drawing a bone dres between azerbaijan and tell me. during the soviet period and previously what you had in this situation is a situation where nagorno-karabakh was effectively the independence of as a by. menial obviously to help their fellow citizens as they saw as in nagorno-karabakh during the conflict in the ninety's even if you can't come to a final conclusion about who who gets what does of the pie as long as people aren't being killed then that's that's good and you know for many years that has been the case here and certainly no longer the case. another of the headlines stories today the u.k. and canada have slapped sanctions on the bella russian president alexander lukashenko

his son and 6 other senior government officials the measures include a travel ban and the freezing of assets the british foreign secretary said the restrictions have been introduced to uphold democratic values and put pressure on those responsible for quote repression in belarus following the this bitter election meanwhile the french president has promised help to the bell russian opposition leader and money will micron's pledge came as he met with svetlana taken off for the 1st time this tuesday r.t. sharla dubin ski has more on that from paris. well it's understood during that meeting which took place in the lithuanian capital that suspect land there to fend off sky asked for support for fresh presidential elections in belarus and she asked for united european support for change in the country now following the meeting she said that france's president had agreed to help.

with the fish and serbia of the just for. you know football for this political crisis in our country will do everything just to her to release all the blood from the bridge and well this of course follows a disputed presidential elections in belarus which of seemed widespread protests in the weeks following that some say that she was the spark behind some of those protests there will be a question if perhaps president macron is the right person to mediate in this situation given that he has made his views about belarusian president alyaksandr. very well known and on the one hand president machen has talked about the fact he doesn't want to see foreign interference in belarus on the other hand he says he has supported or does support the idea of sanctions on the country. opposition is very clear that we do not recognize the election of president lukashenko and

therefore we don't recognize his status as president elect. as soon as possible and i hope we can take the necessary sanctions but also reading gaijin indispensable mediation there are diverging opinions on what's happening in belarus for example russia has given its backing to the new term of. president putin saying that the changes that have been put forward to the constitution reforms in the future have been outright rejected by opposition leaders the e.u. my. meanwhile says it doesn't support what's happening in valerie's it in fact called the inauguration of president lukashenko being something that was lacking any democratic legitimacy it's also described the protesters out on the streets as being brave didn't it to have suggested that it wants fresh elections now president matt corn has said president lukashenko must go he's been pretty clear about that

but presently she has hit back saying if that is president mcconnell's logic then perhaps he too should have stepped down during the yellow vests protests based on the principles of mr himself following his own logic he should have resigned 2 years ago when the yellow vests started to appear on the streets of paris as an experienced politician to an immature one i want to advise mr micron to look around less and instead finally deal with the internal affairs of france well that meeting comes just ahead of e.u. leaders who are also due to meet where the topic of belarus is expected to be high up on the agenda with the leaders discussing possible sanctions against the country an additional note on this after the meetings for atlanta took an office guy said she had accepted her invitation to address the french parliament independent journalist look at rivera he wonders however if france is in a good position to mediate. but you michael cannot play these role of mediator

there should be somebody to mediate if any who is respect by all parties including mr question sorry to say so mediating is something that you can help do from position where he stands now offering after having taken a strong position in support of the opposition. call mediate anymore so i don't see anything happening on the side of europe in brussels already in paris so probably the situation will remain the same and europe will reduce its complaints and support this is the kind of scale full and her friends in the fray now for the coming years as a government in exiles. not long until the 2 main heavyweight candidates center they ring for the 1st round of the us presidential debates both are vowing not to pull any punches on will be hoping to inflict

a knock blow this choose the even kill up and he's been looking now at the contenders. in the year of covidien out with the old and in with the new when it comes to presidential debates there will be no handshake between the 2 candidates there will be no live audience there will just be 2 presidential contenders going head to head in front of t.v. cameras but aside from the staging everything looks to be pretty normal donald trump is revving up his old insult comedy routine accusing joe biden of having poor mental health and being doped up i would be strongly demanding a drug test of sleepy joe biden prior to off to the debate on tuesday night naturally only agreed to take one also his debate performances have been record setting uneven to put it mildly only drugs could have caused this discrepancy now the biden camp is taking down old trump quite literally and demanding a drug test meanwhile biden is certainly not short of

a bargain or 2 he has just compared donald trump to hitler's chief propagandist you know he says sort of like goebbels you say is a lie long enough keep repeating repeating repeating it becomes common knowledge that when it comes to trading blows in the debates biden hopes they will be murder ball rather than physical at least this time now the 1st debate is going to cover just a few major issues you've got coded the u.s. supreme court racism violence and election integrity but can anyone really tell the difference between the 2 major candidates. probably think truth is. yes but really. i'd sit by. and i'm going to say don trump but it could be provided.

it seems to me to be. no. no no no. it's not on the. job are you just crushing polls show biden has a pretty solid lead over donald trump however there's still over a month laughs before the final vote however some media outlets have already called and said there's really no point in even having debates he and his henchmen are a danger with their comments on a danger to our democracy so i don't want to give him you know why bother. you know he doesn't tell the truth he isn't committed to our constitution presidential debates are a kind of american tradition now at this point it's pretty unlikely that the millions of viewers will learn anything new other than some nasty nicknames or a one liner jabs but that won't stop millions from tuning in. art see new york

host of politicking on our t.v. larry king believes the debates will do little to change people's political beliefs it's impossible to pick a winner and debate i do not think that joe biden and biden will fare poorly i think trump is making a mistake by thinking that all he has to do is just go into the arena and he wins the that's not the way it works biden will surely press him the members of the day to day about his income tax is the aggressor let's see how aggressive he is this is not a real debate in that each side i go 3 minutes you go 2 minutes i get one minute you get one minute nobody fact checks as to who's telling the truth and who's not. but it is what it is i remember the kennedy nixon 1st kennedy mix the debate in 1960 the 1st televised debate and i heard that debate on the radio and i thought

nixon won the debate but if you're sort on television everybody was so on meanwhile did you see that nixon look gray kennedy look strong so a lot of this depends on how you look i don't think the public watches this open mind you few of your for biden tonight tomorrow and if you're for trump you're for trump how many people are undecided now that's a question political pundits have asked for years i know of no one undecided in this race sure i think they'll be a tremendous audience for this debate now how much will it count. they'll be polling the next couple days as a vice presidential debate coming in the end i don't think they matter very much i think they're a wash so we'll see what we shall see. staying stateside policing the streets of new york is getting increasingly risky the

n.y.p.d. says more than $7500.00 officers have been injured in the line of duty this year alone now it's up almost 50 percent compared to last year many of the injuries were sustained during recent police brutality protests and unions say it is politicians who should shoulder a lot of the blame. the chaos that politicians are encouraging on the streets is putting cops in hospitals every new york at least off their elected officials how cops can protect them when we can barely protect ourselves in one of the more bloody incidents a number of police officers were attacked by protesters on the brooklyn bridge in july 1 required emergency surgery after suffering blows to the head in another case in june an officer in the bronx was the victim of a hits and run on in the same month a molotov cocktail was thrown on an n.y.p.d. vehicle nationwide protests 1st gripped the us back in may following the death of

george floyd over the summer in frequent violent clashes between blocked by smarter protesters and officers national police association member steve palm percés elected officials should be held to account for the spike in injuries incurred in the line of duty. obviously the increase in the riots that have been occurring across america have definitely increase the odds of a police officer getting injured and then the black of consequences for people attacking police officers there essentially many of them are getting away with it part of the problem is that we have you know governors mayors city leaders county leaders who are essentially ordering officers not to enforce the law or they're implicitly setting the situation where officers don't enforce the law or because no charges are going to be brought against you know the people they arrest you know you're just going to have that cycle of violence because the officers are not the they're not equipped to be able to stop the violence they don't have the authority to do it was the leadership gives it to them and so when you have something like

this though it's give somebody you know a jumping off point to go and decide that every police department in america is you know needs to be reformed i don't know of another occupation where somebody makes a mistake or does something outwardly you know wrong and they don't want to change the entire institution i remember last time you know it teacher did something wrong they wanted to you know reform teaching in america and seen that. an all too familiar scene there while face mosque gloves are designed to stop the spread of the coronavirus it seems they could be doing the opposite when through in a way that is the warning from local authorities and which claim curtis dispose of the p.p.a. he could pose a health hazard not only does this blight local areas but it also risks spreading infection face masks gloves and other forms of personal protective equipment designed to protect people from infection but poor disposal risks doing the opposite. earlier the world health organization also spoke out saying and proper

disposal could lead to a certain transmission and it's not just health concerns or by p.p. that have been mounting but also environmental ones a report by british researchers claim the daily use of a facemask by every u.k. citizen would eventually create almost $70000.00 tons of plastic waste professor lawrence young from the university of warrick believes reusable p.p. is the only solution appropriate disposal of face marse and other p.p.c. essential to avoid any increase in transmission and so it's really important that people take responsibility to dispose of their face masks gloves etc in appropriate way spins and do not litter the streets and other public places with potentially contaminated face masks and gloves and also highlights the important use perhaps of cloth for a small slow washable because washable face masks will be much more easier to deal

with they would washing will destroy the virus and it's a much more environmentally friendly approach in your own home you can dispose of these in your normal black bag on the local councils certainly in the united kingdom are happy to take those away in and deal with them really if you're out and about disposing of facemask in little bins is perfectly ok but if they do happen to fall off or you decide rob the irresponsibly just to ditch them in a road or in a public place and that is a really really socially irresponsible thing to do. washington house for a beer e.u. and its top diplomat you separate out for acting without its approval in venezuela . this will make relations with the e.u. bureaucracy more difficult it's not useful to have burrell's office working on its own it's fair to call it cowboy diplomacy the e.u.

in the past few years shows chorus of the negative response of the united states with regards to the possibility of opening a dialogue it's kind of like lego movie that shows some time birthweight who only established that there are rules that they are willing to follow and everybody fell so definitely i don't believe that their approach that right now being taken by the u.s. government it's the appropriate one i believe that dialogue the best way to deal with us he do ation like the one that venezuela has there's a possibility that there will be protests after this election but at the same time right now the government the stronger the. longer it's big cities of. athens on monday to protest against the visit of the u.s. secretary of state my pump it was in the country to discuss tensions between greece
