no it's because yes that requires. the most vulnerable are abandoned on the streets to become the invisible clerks. in the headlines this morning possible peace in the making armenia and azerbaijan agree a ceasefire of the disputed nagorno-karabakh region after more than 10 hours of talks here in moscow. a cease fire is announced from 12 pm on the 10th of the 2 but for humanitarian purposes. pre-election chaos the 2nd u.s. presidential debate is canceled after donald trump refuses to participate online claiming he's cured of covert 90 democrats though claim his health makes him unfit for office. and frustration boils over new restrictions to to cover 19 spark mass protests in many countries. people. as they grow up as they become 30 or more tired or weary they become isolated they become alienated

do not have a useful behavior becomes a very high cost and so less life place to actually go and where i'm asked. for good morning from russia this weekend live from artie's world news center well as kevin 0 in here with the latest for you for the next 30 minutes good to have you company by the way so 1st a breakthrough weeks of bloodshed may be drawing to a close this breakthrough has been reached in the fighting in the contested nagorno-karabakh region we've been talking about so often of late as warring armenia and azerbaijan have agreed to a ceasefire the foreign ministers of both nations held marathon talks here in moscow on friday. a ceasefire is announced from 12 pm on the 10th of october for humanitarian purposes to exchange the prisoners of

war and other detained persons and the borders of the killed in line with red cross principles the specific parameters of the ceasefire will be agreed later. well with russia serving as mediator it took 10 hours for the 2 sides to come to terms the discussions wrapped up in the early hours of saturday the talks were held in a fully closed format neither here nor azerbaijan gave a statement to the press afterwards russian president vladimir putin earlier called for an end to the hostilities which of course huge damage and civilian casualties as he goes down off he's on the medium border again this morning morning to you. almost a breakthrough in the sun to come out it's a clear sky it's been very gloomy where you've been for the last couple of days we've been reporting back every morning so maybe a new start what is the response to the news there the relief for war. well indeed kevin it is quite symbolic here it's the 1st lull in the fighting in

this latest escalation since the beginning of it and to say that here on the armenians out of the border everyone is relieved would be a severe understatement everyone every refugee every citizen of this small town we've talked to they've all been asking us what is it like in russia what is moscow saying what's more still doing when is this all going to end some have been saying that well at least we hope the fighting won't come here because this town is really really close to the border with the disputed region finally it has come and this is indeed good news for everyone for both sides but still the peace is very this peace this truce it's very very fragile 1st and foremost it's not indefinite as you've said it will only go on for 72 hours as of now and it is done for humanitarian purposes and for this truce to hold well the 2 sides have to find a lot more common ground than they have right now because the talks have been so difficult it was clear that they haven't been easy at all they have been they have

lasted for 10 hours and the foreign minister over there by janet least once had to leave the site of the talks in moscow apparently to go to the azerbaijani members. 2 to 2 the higher ups to consult with them so this is the level this is the level of decision that was being made in moscow. in moscow tonight so really really difficult and that is because both sides this topic of not going to cow back both for armenia and azerbaijan is very very sensitive a both sides feel very passionate about these lands about these cities and so the armenian forces are ready to die every every every man every woman is ready to die for nagorno-karabakh and the same goes for sarah by john so both nations are very very sensitive about this topic so hence the difficulty in talks but so far this truce and here's how the armenian prime minister. talks about.

intentions when it comes to settling this conflict in the back prior to the talks have a listen. we are committed to peaceful settlement of the curb of conflict and are ready to resume the peace process in accordance with the recent statements of the presidents and foreign ministers of the co-chairs always see me as group. talking about symbolism just to give you an idea as to how difficult these 2 as they started as they are by john started bombing the city of step on the capital of a cow back so there was no level in the fighting even for the talks so there you go when it comes to the position of official baku and as they're by john we're still to hear from them after the talks but prior to them they were very very adamant that they on backing down. is azerbaijan

everyone should know this including those in charge of armenia today and i tell them again that if they commit fraud again after the moscow talks they will regret it we will take back our lands peace. or through war unequivocally we want to organize it peacefully let's do it peacefully we are giving armenia one last chance one last chance. so one last chance this is what he said and this apparently i mean it took this chance along with desire by john as well so we'll see how it fares from now on and later in the day in fact we're waiting for approval from the foreign ministry and later in the day hopefully we will be traveling to not going to cow back and i will be bringing you all the latest from step on the cat and villages around it already go more for you later and go as so many of the more reaction to terror experts and legal analysts have had to most of believes russia's role has been crucially to resolving the conflict

russia's role in this particular conflict is incredibly important and notably because russia has a good relationship with both countries yes russia has a military alliance with armenia but russia has entered into agreements engagements of both advisor on and our media so azerbaijan serves a closer relationship with turkey russia has been able to broker deals between both countries in and of course russia is. definitely the most powerful country most influential country in the region and so that's why it's important that russia is involved in this that moscow is leading these peace talks and especially the involvement of the minsk group france united states and russia agreed to be involved in these talks in moscow i think it's good it puts that pressure on it puts a pressure on at least both sides. well since the decades old conflict escalated nearly 2 weeks ago the fighting only been intensifying till this weekend there are conflicting reports on both sides about casualties and videos have been released on

a daily basis showing the destruction inside the disputed region and its surrounding areas for a broader picture let's go to. a good morning or add so much bloodshed again of late is this may be the end of it for good what's the prognosis was being said there obviously relief this morning but the question is this going to last as pows . well there is no telling at this point this is a conflict that has dragged on for 30 years with and less escalations and flare ups and renewed violence susu certainly you know there is there is ground there is space for another escalation until unless they they really go into this into the these negotiations and at least attempt to make some progress attempt to lay the groundwork for a peaceful a permanent peaceful resolution because look the international community had made very clear that they have new patience new tolerance for this conflict especially

now it was too violent it came at a completely wrong time if there is a right time and the international community was adamant that this should stop we had calls coming into both sides it will mean the end as ever john will from all over europe the united states asia all manner of states and leaders calling them begging them to end the violence before it escalated beyond all control before they reached a point of no return there were however a few exceptions a few countries that did take sides that according to one french president macro turkey for example egging as it about john on with its quote unacceptable and diligent rhetoric. so. the men's group until now has not shown any real to resolve this problem the solution to the

issue which is turned into going green so to speak because a very nice uncompromising and spoiled attitude for nearly 30 years is for the occupation. sorry turkish president as the one who had insisted that his side turkey supported as it were john only with only. morally moral support other countries and other nations accused her give sending geologist from syria to is it about john to fight for is it about johnny forces this this caused a huge uproar among the international community canada for example also battling the export of military technologies to turkey which is a nato ally saying that it had received worrying reports of turkish troops targeting civilian civilians in karbala in the jury during the. course of

the conflict. as i said for the world as a whole now this conflict was soon quick to violent the videos from the front lines were absolutely awful the use of cluster bombs confirmed by amnesty international the use of cluster bombs on cities and towns 3 was completely

unacceptable to the international community and the grounds of the space the potential for regional escalation where other countries were pulled into this war despite nobody really wanting it to happen nobody seeing any reason for it to flare up now that potential was all too dangerous so the pressure result out of both sides to maintain to abide by the cease fire and to finally after 30 years make progress in permanent peace talks in deciding the future of care about between themselves in a nonviolent non estimates henri way and we're going to have a city correspondent rudely but ship it later as well reaction comes into this it's our main story today folks are helping us cover it can see of the sort of some other news this morning the 2nd u.s. presidential debate that was for this thursday is now officially cancelled after

the 2 candidates teams couldn't agree on a new format the democratic side on the debate commission stressed it amounts. should be conducted online but trump who says he's now cooed of code 90 refused that option on the tried to reshow julie event trauma's health is the latest sticking point for democrats in congress to who think it may be grounds to remove the president and caleb maupin the latest. nancy pelosi is known to be one of donald trump's biggest and most loyal fans she's on record telling us just how much she loves him right. well she's so concerned now about donald trump's health that she's introducing legislation if a president suffers a crippling there's a culture mental problem and his on end of the man match on able to discharge the powers and duties of his office and transfers his powers the 25th amendment of the

u.s. constitution enables the president to be kicked out of office if he is rendered to be mentally or physically incapable in order for that to happen the vice president and most of the cabinet needs to meet and declare the president to be unfit to lead the democrats are now looking to set up a mechanism where as congress would have a more of a say when it comes to the president's health nancy pelosi maintains this is not about this is not about president trump he will face the judgment of the voters but he shows the need for us to create a process for a future president the president's allies say that this is yet another attempt by the democrats to push trump out of office. i wouldn't put it past speaker pelosi to stage a coup says already weaponized impeachment what's to keep it from weaponize ing the 25th amendment who can forget last year's failed impeachment proceedings i'm

announcing the house of representatives moving forward with an official impeachment inquiry and directing our 6 committees to proceed with their investigations under that umbrella of the impeachment inquiry the president must be held accountable no one is above the law now nancy pelosi failed to remove donald trump in 2918 but apparently she has another plan up her sleeve she was sitting on it until just the right moment some of mention the possibility if they try to push through a nominee in a lame duck session that the jew in the the house could move to impeach we're not ruling anything out of protecting our democracy requires us to use every arrow in our quest for nancy pelosi makes no bones about the fact that she's been trying to remove donald trump from office all along she's been looking for any potential opening all i hear from the press is that i'm moving so swiftly to such a blur going by this is then a couple of years 2 and

a half cynthia and michelle investigation a matter of what he says or whatever headline he wants to carry around here impeached ever so with the election in less than a month we've got democrats possibly using constitutional maneuvers to try and remove trump from office just in case he wins at the polls that does not sound like a position of confidence but then again with so much fear about contested results this november nothing in american politics seems normal these days what she proposes is a new legislation to set up a permanent 17 urson commission to try to evaluate whether or not residents mentally ill this is something that they are made of this representative before the election but it certainly is not going to pass in the senate and. always present truckin scientists so until last they tried everything else they can do to try to remove this it seems to me some think that you put it in the news cycle today on

friday last weekend this to me isn't your missed waste of resources and energy so the stuff is being carried out at a time when the speaker refuses to engage in real negotiations about stimulus which is critically important to all americans. take 17 moscow times sunday morning good morning this is a head a recent study says that british such isn't the trust in the government there is plummeting hitting the lowest point in that case guess kopeks not help we'll find out more after the break. join me every thursday on the alex simon show and i'll be speaking to guests of the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then.

again morning there coronavirus pandemic just won't let up will it as covert cases surge again a number of countries are bringing in new restrictions now the u.k. france sweden italy and the u.s. are among those have already introduced tougher measures israel too is now going back to a nationwide law some european countries new measures are being imposed on bars gyms and restaurants restrictions on large meetings outdoors or again in place or completely banned companies are being told to send many of their employees to work from home as well and there's been a lot of anger of course with the covert 1000 measures around the globe with many people lashing out in violent protests over it the stress related to the restrictions has driven some people indeed to blows. so.

you can be. a long year isn't it well the world health organization is expressing alarm now with the service saying 93 percent of countries worldwide of disrupted or halted mental health services over it so much has been kind of put on hold on to the backs there it's the 1st data showing the dreadful impact of covert $1000.00 globally on mental health care the report stresses the urgency of increased funding we discussed it with a regional director of the w.h.o. . people as they grow. as they become fatigued or tired or weary they also under the measures that have been implemented by many member states by many countries have become isolated they become alienates and they feel lonely in many situations so in that situation they're more likely to

feel a very high cost of the measures that they're being asked to perform so i'm not saying that family members for example are not going to social gatherings do not have the usual behavior becomes a very high cost for them and so then less likely to actually go and wear a mask to practice safe. physical distance we're very concerned about that see here in the european region because we feel it could be contribution of course soon a resurgence to a rise in transmission of 19. and in the u.k. people getting disillusion to trust in the government has fallen to its lowest in decades in britain according to major pola the findings of british social attitudes are the only 15 percent of the 3000 said they had faith these days in westminster there's also represent the mood than in 2019 but according to people the streets of london not much has changed since. trust in the government seems to be going down

rapidly. i would say for the past 10 years maybe if you're going to do what you're going to do is show you. what i've lost a lot of respect and i really put toys seems to me like someone stood in the cabin in the dark with ideas on it and it just kind of throwing them and then it's just like last minute so it's going to give you something for everybody so it just seems the doing things have personally. very focused changing their minds quite often. a political commentator idol darwish told us how the coronavirus planned there was only worsened the negative feeling. people like a more decisive government this government is elected with the deputy the more the over issues like regs it becomes the grown up lawyers come to court with and they don't seem to be giving massive age and that this imply their corner of me is in bad but we can see the government now is pretty today is taking some steps right to

amend that i suspect with. actually except lloyd that there's a problem that next week in the house of commons the promise of course is on wednesday so these questions were about. the action and the dealing with the epidemic of the 19 but i think it might actually be exploited live out my exploit that. almost a quarter of americans say they have less than 3 weeks money reserves left meaning many could run out before november's presidential election a survey is firm and president trumps announced on tuesday they'll be no coronavirus stimulus talks with democrats until after the vote there is not only in the us where the pandemics widen the gap between rich and poor as donald quarter reports this morning. over a 1000000 people across the globe have died from coronavirus related causes says billions more continue to struggle with the pandemics economic consequences things

are looking up for the world's billionaire minority for the 1st time ever their collective wealth has surpassed 10 trillion dollars billionaire wealth equates to a fortune almost impossible to spend over multiple lifetimes of absolute luxury anyone accumulating riches on this scale could easily afford to raise the pay of the employees who generate their wealth will contribute a great deal more in taxes to support financial public services and all the while jobs are disappearing at an alarming rate the super rich could have been richer while millions of people around the world lost their jobs doesn't. coincidence that's how the rotten system works might be time for governments to step in right well they already have in fact they're helping the ultra rich get even richer thanks to a loophole in the us as coronavirus relief package the wealthy ended up getting around $1700000.00 worth of handouts and another $133.00 large companies received $5000000000.00 more from the treasury as for the u.k.

over $12000000000.00 of government stimulus has gone straight into the pockets of corporations for the rest of humanity it's unfortunate because extreme poverty is only getting closer to home between 88000000 and 150000000 people could fall back into extreme poverty as a result of the pandemic with an additional increase of between $23000000.35 in 2021 potentially bringing the total number of new people living in extreme poverty to between one $110000000.15 the world bank defines extreme poverty as living on less than $1.90 a day so as the ruling class continues to collect the billions of dollars in government charity you have to wonder how exactly society is benefiting as a whole from this degree of inequality it is a manifestation of capitalism it is how capitalism handles up and down that you can see a disproportionate impact low income workers have been laid off fired run into

unemployment much more than middle and upper income workers capitalist employers are keeping their jobs during an economic downturn but laying off millions of american workers so you automatically if you react to a pandemic that way you worsen the inequality it's the capitalist system and it's operation that is in fact the cause of this growing obdurately for which there is no excuse possible. you know the headlines this morning the u.s. has slapped more sanctions on iran further isolating the country from the world's financial systems washington claims the move is to stop around sponsoring terror activities and developing nuclear weapons to iran denies those allegations and says the restrictions will only hurt the iranian people themselves that made covert 19 pandemic us regime was to blow up our remaining channels to pay for food and

medicine iranians will survive this latest of cruelty but conspiring to starve a population is a crime against humanity culprits and enablers who block our money will face justice and iran knows where they live been put on notice of us around with us if you do something bad we're going to do things dear that have never been done before not very presidential language there surprise surprise from donald trump the new sanctions freeness the u.s. assets of 18 iranian banks which hits almost all of the country's financial institutions it also places secondary sanctions on firms that do business with those banks and although washington claims that instructions don't apply when it comes to basic necessities critics say foreign banks will be scared off from getting involved in humanitarian aid to european countries have reacted against previous u.s. sanctions in september the foreign ministers of france the u.k. and germany known as the 3 agreed between themselves to resist u.s.

demands to restore all u.s. sanctions on iran washington did try you may recall to snap back sanctions on iran unilaterally but since the trumpet ministration walked out of the nuclear deal it cannot do so world affairs journalist thomas fassbender told us he believes the sanctions are not just about targeting a rant but sending out a wider message to the rest of the world too. even if there is some mechanism in place that would still allow medical or humanitarian aid get into iran. any foreign company any friend bank that is dealing with iran that is involved in that in such supplies they will have to 'd apply they will have to wait for a full licenses for cruel that's. from a practical point of view that can be no question that this will impede aid and support getting into the country it is a political move by the us the us are gambling on using their economic might

their power over the global financial infrastructure to all pacify any potential opponents from russia china iran been a source. even germany's or a us sanctions now and would see what as well e to. we will indeed bus it for now for the newsroom on any social media that we got up today for us got you covered in the last stories of the we're talking about i'm kevin i'm back in 30 minutes for me in the team have a great weekend. the lockdown has shifted the way people relationship with their bosses and their companies and how do you account for costs down to the granularity of toilet paper and the only industry i know where oil and paper costs are incorporated in the p. and l. on

a monthly or weekly basis is in the prison business. just . as. it was because i wonder why it was. but there are also friends that the us are still slow but the soul to do something . which. should. be about the basic.
