here's one now. so you should be seen here and a whole lot more you're saying if you don't take that advice easy going to do it yourself. this is what's left of the round that in this backyard it's really. the conflicts between armenia and azerbaijan takes a brutal toll on communities in the disputed region of no one a car bomb arctic reports from the area. hostilities are now into their 5th day there with the 2 nations rejecting calls for a cease fire we hear from civilians on both sides of the divide who say they don't want war. as an armenian i do not want to talk about who is right or wrong but i would like the issue to be resolved through negotiations i don't like what is happening many people i know are now going to the front line we don't want blood to be sure. also this hour the kremlin alleges that the next day the only works for

the cia after the opposition figure accuses vladimir putin of poisoning him and his 1st interview since coming out of the coma. you're watching are to international coming to you live from the russian capital where it's just turned 6 pm welcome to the program. armenia and azerbaijan how both rejected calls for a cease fire and ruled out peace talks as hostilities over a disputed border territory and to their 5th day now these are the latest images released by azerbaijan showing the destruction of armenian military vehicles in the region both sides have released a string of videos to back up their claims of tactical victories in all local reporters are being caught in the crossfire a cameramen from an armenian t.v. channel was severely injured during. shelling these are pictures of his car 2
11:02 am
french journalists were also injured while covering the conflict and are being treated at the hospital are reports now on the impact on local communities. nagorno-karabakh is sandwiched between the territorial ambitions of armenia and azerbaijan but as commanders in chief are deploying platoon after platoon to the frontline it's often civilians who end up in the crossfire on both sides or in a small town in the disputed nagorno-karabakh region the front line is about 5 to 7 kilometers that way and thereby johnny shell flew from over there and made this crater and well there was a bus staying right here has already been cleared the debris and it was bustling with people as a result because of the strike this strike killed 2 people and 5 more were wounded all of them civilians this is no military complex it's just a building just a house we're live in in fact i'm being told that these these areas are being
11:03 am
shelled relentlessly even though the closest military position is about 3 to 4 kilometers away that way but what you're hearing right now is them firing in fact we could hear just minutes ago a u.s. v and sometimes even see it as it was making circles above us it was not an armenian it was an affair by johnny one so this is one of the places where it is as hoarse as it gets in the going to care about their own many places that have it worse than the town of martinique within the 60 minutes that we were filming there we had artillery infantry drones all of them had their deadly say. it would be a new movie the. air raid sirens and the buzz of drones have become the terrifying sound. to this war in the gorn i care about and this from plane town has
11:04 am
enduring booms all calibers this is what's left of the round the world and this backyard it's really. well i'm being told it's about $160.00 millimeters in caliber which makes it truly formidable project and you can see the amount of damage that it did here for instance here used to be the gates well there are now completely gone both sides are ready to fight to the bishop around both sides of the fervid support of the populations sharing an underlying belief that it's them fighting for the right cause and not the enemy with all the horrors that have already haunted this land this war shows that the your grievances have only deepened because dawn of reporting from the greenock arab or. i'm going to karbala is one of several border disputes remaining from the collapse of the soviet union
11:05 am
they are broke away from azerbaijan in 1988 and declared itself independent however the enclave mostly populated by armenians is not widely recognized as an independent state turkey meanwhile has expressed angst support for azerbaijan and the conflict but who insists that support is limited to diplomacy although are many alleges that the turkish air force is directly involved it's more on the escalation here's our senior correspondent ryan garcia for porting from istanbul. well there's been absolutely no lol in the fighting continued overnight raged i would say every few hours we're also seeing casualty numbers both military and civilian car it seems to be getting worse and worse and the escalation seems to be escalating itself and this is all despite tremendous diplomatic pressure for both sides to take a pause to take a break to anything you know give talks and charts despite everything the
11:06 am
international community is doing the violence seems to be getting worse on monday but we have only one condition that armenia leaves our lands completely and immediately this is family that is the armenian government complies with this the fighting will stop there will be no bloodshed there will be peace and peace will come to our region. i believe the armenian army can secure a country in the self-defense forces of the golden corral bark or successfully protecting their region from a political standpoint i believe it's very important for us that international partners know how and who started this military action. one of the one of this rhetoric though it is in stark contrast to what ordinary people think here in istanbul and get it out of mean you. people know off the so many years of escalations of flare ups that peace doesn't come through war and
11:07 am
medical needs not as an armenian i do not want to talk about who is right or wrong but i would like those issues to be resolved through negotiations not force them. into i don't like what is happening many people i know are now going to the front line we don't want blood to be sure we want everything to end peacefully but i am afraid there is no chance to talk about peace at the moment we must reclaim our lands. world. i fought in the 1st war and in 2016 nowadays people go to the front line to win the shelling will come down then we will be needed there we used to it this is our homeland we have nowhere to go the losses booth sides suffering though we can't verify everything that's impossible for now tremendous so the perhaps the sheer magnitude of what is happening will force both sides to take a pause and to reconsider the approach that they're both taking but for now that
11:08 am
seems a dim concept because the president of carabao has warned his citizens the people of calabar to prepare for a prolonged war in the said about johnnie's side has as we mentioned earlier obviously set its path and that path is to reclaim carabaos by force and there's an alarming new element to the conflict russia and france both say there it indications of extremist militants being brought in from the middle east to fight and karl buck we go live now to our to go for more of what can you tell us about what's being said. jacqueline good evening well they aren't just some kind of media reports this is the president of france and then also russian officials saying that they do have the information from the intelligence that armed fighters from syria have joined the fight and are actively taking part in whatever is going
11:09 am
on in the nagorno-karabakh region so let's listen to what exactly the french leader had to say. today we have information with certainty that indicates that militants from to how does groups who left the field of combat and syria to rejoin the field of competent care of. shortly after we heard this from emanuel macron the russian foreign ministry said that they have this information too and that is actually a follow up to their own statement that came out on wednesday when russian officials warned of mercenaries being transferred from syria and libya to fight in a car conflict but the officials in moscow are a frame ng from pointing out who the foreign fighters are fighting for but the government of us there by john i can tell you for sure are saying that there's
11:10 am
absolutely no way that these fighters could be somehow taking part in the battles together with their army however earlier we heard from armenia they were making accusations against both coup and allies turkey that they were using some kind of outside force now in a rare display of unity that doesn't always happen in many international call flights on thursday a statement came out a joint statement by the leaders of the u.s. france and russia in which the president's called on both sides armenia and. by john to come back to the gauche eating table without any preconditions preconditions sorry and to lay down arms now immediately that. immediately reaction to that came from the turkish president on who is a supporter of who in this particular conflict he was not happy with it and he
11:11 am
actually said that the trio failed in their attempts to calm down the tensions and actually that they've been failing for decades. the fact that america russia and france known as the minsk trian looking for a ceasefire in the face of these negative development just because they have been equipped to this problem for nearly 30 years is unacceptable. mr erred on is following up on that by saying that the occupiers must leave immediately and only in this case peace can be reached and by saying so he is clearly sending a message to yvonne so that's a completely different approach from the turkish president we know that the turkish side has been supporting us or by john in this from the very outbreak of the conflict. thank you for bringing us that report. earlier my colleague
11:12 am
you know neal spoke to a political analyst focusing on the region who says the situation is even more complex than it 1st seems there are many organizations not to believe i don't think it is real. media or dorky me they're all frustrated by german or even believe that it is mainly i suppose the initiative belongs to a certain financial for financial firms related to the muslim presence in and out of the meaning of the. we've seen over the last number of days statements of support from for azerbaijan how far do you think turkey is willing to go to help itself well you should understand the situation the throne the chair of the gun the shaken but too many forces inside talk of the gun party now wanting to replace him and he's fighting for at least so if the military
11:13 am
fortune would be on the sort of bridge on the side of the gun to get the glory of her computer over there are many like in store for camilla that you would cause big greek concur so that is if may be true for sure i don't want to sort of the journey but if it means we have begun to lose nothing because of its beauty but it's got a budget and we have motivations. russian opposition figure out alex and of all me it says he plans to sue the kremlin spokesperson for accusing him of working for the cia to meet her past made that claim after the ball made gave an interview to german media accusing vladimir putin of poisoning him participator albert reports from berlin. alexei navalny used this interview to the german news magazine. the german people and in particular angle america for the helping to receive german chancellor visits at mr secretly while he was in the shot at
11:14 am
a hospital. in berlin in the interview mist in the valley pulls no punches about who he thinks is behind his alleged poisoning he points that finger of blame firmly at russia and directly at president vladimir putin the kremlin has responded to this kremlin spokes person dmitri peskov saying the claims made against me of britain against russia were unacceptable and also accused foreign intelligence services of working with mr novell me i claim that putin is behind the crime and i have no alternative versions of what happened i don't say that to flatter myself but on the basis of fact the most important fact is normally chuck the order to use a manufacture it can only have come from 2 men the head of the f.s.b. or of the foreign intelligence service the s.v.r. government and western intelligence services are working with him in particular the cia we believe his accusations against the russian president are groundless and
11:15 am
unacceptable his interview reveals that he thinks he's as important as the leader of a state but the real rivals at that level are quite different people germany says tests that were carried out show traces of novacek were found now the same type of tests that were carried out on alexina violently in the city of almost skin russia where he 1st received medical treatment well they showed no sign of any such poisoning alexina valise team sent acquired a bottle from a hotel room that he'd been staying in in the siberian city of tomsk this bottle was then sent with other things here to germany where tests were carried out on it and not is where the novacek was found now there's a lot of questions about how that bottle got from a hotel room to you here in in germany and how those tests were carried out all of those remain unanswered it's important cause because the whole idea that he was report that he was poisoned with novacek nerve agent hangs on the results of those
11:16 am
tests now the russian prosecutor. has sent 3 requests to berlin for the sharing of information relating to those tests and others that were carried out all mist in the valley so far all of that has fallen on deaf ears but it is not to be used that we turn to the o p c w which unfortunately was playing for time and then told us we need to go back to berlin can you believe that when we were 1st appealing to bill in it directed our communications to the p.c. w this is a vicious circle it is illogical absent and everyone understand it or go back to the interviewing alexei in the violently says the russian made attempts to keep him in the country once he was in hospital in siberia i think they were determined not to let me out of the country which is why they publicly stated that i was not fit for transport they waited for me to die in my eyes the chief medical cost bittle is worse than the intelligence officers who kill people for them killing is at least
11:17 am
their job or previously russian foreign minister sergei lavrov it said that the very facts alexei navalny was alive right now was down to the quick thinking in the professionalism of the pilot that made the emergency landing the power medics that arrived on the scene at the airport and the medical professionals that gave him treatment in hospital in the siberian city no one is supposed to children so the impeccable work for pilots doctors and paramedics is presented as a lucky coincidence they don't even admit that we acted in a proper way our western partners look at us with arrogance because we dare to doubt their correctness and professionalism that's why they doubt the profession is move our doctors and investigators alexina valley was discharged from hospital here in berlin last week he had spent 2 weeks in an induced coma and is currently undergoing physio therapy following that he has said though that he wants to return to russia as soon as it's possible. german journalist and author thomas fassbender
11:18 am
told us not only his claims appear to be based on a series of assumptions. if you look at these argument it is interesting it's not an excuse ation by any proof it's an exposition by conclusion his arguments goes the way that there are only 3 people who can approve of the use of the not shock nerve agent which joined the heads of the 3 secret services in russia and that they would not do anything without the approval of mr godin interestingly also in the same interview you mentions the possibility that not 3 people but he may have access he calls it much worse even with with some reason probably but this says that all he has is this one conclusion there is no further proof. your secretary of state has just concluded a visit to the vatican where he was hoping to meet with pope francis the holy see
11:19 am
did not decline that request saying the pontiff does not meet with politicians during election campaigns my pump i had urged the vatican to join washington and denouncing violations of religious freedom in china 2 years ago the hooli sea reached an agreement with the chinese communist party hoping to help china's catholics yet the chinese communist participle use of the faithful has only gotten worse the vatican in dangerous its moral authority should renew the deal. was referring there to a deal between the vatican and china which ended a long running dispute over the appointment of bishops under the terms the catholic church agreed to recognize several bishops backed by beijing it was seen as a 1st step and reception relations between the church and china which were severed back in 1951 response to criticism from the u.s. the vatican has defended its 20000 deal with china saying a direction has been marked out that is worth continuing international relations
11:20 am
analyst victor gao thinks washington's attempt to pressure the vatican is misguided . the model is secretary of state i all say the wrong thing and try to interfere in the internal affairs of the holy see but also all the timing is very suspicious a very sensitive right now and this is really troubling to see the secretary of state on the united states not doing diplomacy but actually becoming a warmonger and the rumor monger in the world very much in the same footsteps with his president and we can see that washington is regrooving its moral leadership suffering from a seizure of the hysteria extremism and hopelessness whatever your college and or it wants to do whatever you can to practice the being syndrome to watch the kneecaps of china it wants to see china as an enemy and it
11:21 am
wants the rally the whole world behind it but they too are not succeed because china is now a very significant force called global growth. their opinion is taking legal action against the u.k. operates plan to override the brics that divorce treaty that comes after the house of commons passed an internal market bill which directly directly contradicts the withdraw agreement here or does this alley has the details. the u.k. government have introduced this internal market bill it's still in the draft stages awaiting to be truth into thousands of normal essentially what it would do is by admission of the huge government itself is go against the withdrawal agreement that was agreed by the 2 sides at the beginning of this year and do much of the hard work done by negotiators on both sides of the e.u. commission have now put the u.k. on notice that they could be facing legal action as a result of this latest measure as you know how we had invited our british friends
11:22 am
to remove the problematic parts of van draft internal market beyond the deadline lapsed yesterday because the problematic provisions have not been removed the and therefore this morning the commission has decided to send a letter farmer notice to the u.k. government this is the 1st step in an infringement procedure this bill challenges some of the most important parts of the withdrawal egremont in particular to do the northern ireland protocol of course the border between the north and the republic of ireland is hugely important to the stability and peace of the island of ireland and yet there are those on the european side who say that this could threaten the good friday agreement this could violate the integrity of the single market this bill that is but also there are some again even within the british government the northern ireland secretary now themselves admitting that by
11:23 am
doing this the u.k. governments are violating international law these guys great international law in a very specific and limited why we're taking the power to disappoint or you know a concept of direct effect the strategy and behavior of the british government was one of brinkmanship was one of threatening to crash out as she you know if if you don't if we don't get to know graham and we like ok our housing on you that sort of thing trust has. eroded. tension has been created doubts are being created and that's not conducive to solid accorsi actions we are less than $100.00 days away from the end of the so-called transition period and both sides and i should be really at this point trying to negotiate a deal to avoid a nodal outcome that many economists say would be disastrous for both sides not least the u.k. and yet who we are with one side threatening the other with legal action this is surely not how a negotiator is hoping to be going at this very late stage. that's

correctional institutions throughout the united states people think that you know you have a right to a trial and everybody goes to trial and there's the good prosecutor and the defense attorney and they battle it out that ain't the way it works the way it works is the prosecutors stack up the charges and you have force you to plead guilty to a lesser charge to keep from doing life or double life or triple life people don't get trials what they get is a deal people suggest that anywhere between you know 3 years 10 and 15 percent of people behind bars could be innocent of the crimes which they were charged michelle alexander is a civil rights lawyer stanford law professor and the author of the new jim crow one of the most highly acclaimed studies america's criminal justice system the reality is that thousands of people. every year and the united states wind up

pleading guilty to crimes they may not have committed because they're either or railroaded by police officers who give them false information or horrors confessions or because they're afraid of facing you know harsh mandatory minimum sentences and believe that you know the best chance is to just take a plea. every general you don't know anything about you know the president the politics in county jail you don't know anything so they put you there with these people in this is how they force you to take deals the u.s. justice system is like any justice system in the world a system where 95 percent of the cases are resolved by plea bargain it's no longer trial system it's a plea bargain system the whole purpose of plea bargains from the perspective of a prosecutor raises his conviction rate so prosecutors typically have a high 90 percentile conviction rates including those plea bargains. because of
