entered a 4th day with armenia and azerbaijan again accusing each other of violating the truce amid a series of shelling attacks on saturday the 2 nations however which border and europe agreed to lay down their weapons and exchange prisoners and those killed in the fighting in the nearly 700 on exploded munitions have been find in the disputed enclave on the armenian prime minister has warned of a potential humanitarian catastrophe the government for its part reported several of its own region shelled baku also accuses or many of bombarding the 2nd largest city in the country killing at least 10 people and entering doesn't we're looking here at the aftermath of that attack europe denies the claims a conflict stretches back more than 3 decades although the region is populated mainly by ethnic armenians it is legally part of azerbaijan. meanwhile armenia has launched
2:03 pm
a criminal probe into turkey's alleged use of syrian mercenaries who you're about say they're fighting for us or the claim has been backed up by russia and by france which both describe the fighters as terrorists our correspondent in the a patrol spoke exclusively with the army and president are men circassian the full version or throughout the day here on our teachers for an hour here's a preview. in and of course through 3 is the one the broad. islamic militants terrorist was a bug of course as you were usual turkey was doing you need an excuse why on earth you are going to go to one of the excuses why there is are a big brother's well doesn't work in the new world because you were at the rather go up to central asia mongolia to the north of china are you are you are you ready to into if you were in the problem that you were. i think roger's will get there may be yes use if i look at border in turkey i mean 360 degrees to you that turkey
2:04 pm
has problems with the problems in egypt it has evolved to leave via oil is it that they grow theirs or something else it's a different story that's one second they were speaking about to kick a fighter is absolute nonsense 3rd one there was speaking about the pipelines that are running from bug to to the b.b.c. as an oil pipeline it's what i'm saying they're referring to this because. the motivation was that armenians world will hit them and we're here to protect them i'm sorry where is the logic if i mean it had to hit that pipeline and they should have hit that 20 years ago 20 years ago that when they were starting to build the bio plant a popple a couple of shellings would stop the pipelines being built armies didn't do that and they didn't do that more than 20 years no shelling and no one bullet was fired
2:05 pm
armenians allowed the armenians allowed the budge on to build the pipelines to sell their oil and gas and not only theirs but from spin and also from from the central asia make billions of dollars and they use that billions of dollars in buying billions of dollars of worth of armament and they use that against gordon to cut a buck and that brings 2 to a conclusion billions of dollars so that's money in turkish support bonding enters your support has created and with money enter your support you can come over any more the rid air defense system that they're going to cut above had r t speaking to the armenian president another of my colleagues neil harvey talked to a spokesperson for the azerbaijani ministry of foreign affairs who told us. on turkish involvement in the dispute. at this information and on occasions about tookie support was a partial let me also make it clear that yes turkey and azerbaijan we have
2:06 pm
a good cooperation in various fields including the military spheres this is something that has a by chance has with the other countries as well but it doesn't mean that to us he supports us that watch out on that last route 1st of all get the support is more also for us we have been witnessing this before all the time and currently as well but currently it's as if a johnny army fight against the illegal presence of the army of armenia on our own soil ameena claims that took its fighter jets a been involved supporting as a body show on what's your response to the paper news that our media has been spreading even before the escalation in the region well if you ask me the question why 1st of all we don't need any fighter and militias on our soil because we have a large strong and professional army which is able and capable to defend its its own integrity when it does not like it and i for this it's kind of an uneasy
2:07 pm
situation because of the underlying problems what about that in allowing the people of the disputed region to decide their own futures what about the claims for independence that would make up our surroundings because raise our children who supposedly just this is a part of the international recognized centuries of us that let's not 2nd about the armenians living in this century and their rights representation of sufism nations does not mean that for secession census emanations does not mean independence so what we say of course we can grasp of that of a nation with being that has its own integrity of azerbaijan if every group of people would declare with claim that they have their life their nation can you imagine what kind of russia will have what do you see russia's role in peace efforts between us about john in armenia russia is a big player of course there russia's role as a many a considerable. i also have been between the sides between the bridge and are we now find
2:08 pm
a peaceful settlement. but unfortunately we have to say that i mean you know. 2 cease fire ignoring that the. united nations security council resolutions as well as the new worth listening to other international. 6 organizations and we want to see more active role of russia in the crimea. region because. health care systems in europe are being pushed to the brink with record coburg 19 infection rates being seen right across the continent in france medics fear they're not as well prepared as they were cheering the pandemics initial spread. and. we don't have any nurses back in february march we had an enormous amounts of volunteers the 2nd serious point is that we had help from other regions in march and april to today those regions are all in the red zone with therefore not able to receive that same assistance so we have beds for additional kovac 19 patients but
2:09 pm
we don't have any staff to manage them and a new survey has confirmed exactly about it following dealt with the pandemic taking its toll that many medical workers want out of the profession they are to show dubinsky picks up the story for us as the cause they make rears its ugly head the 1st sign of real strain was on hospitals downs were posed people wanted to show their appreciation and so started the class ok. now is the pressure on hospitals and stuff and getting all the coughing in the world isn't enough to boost the morale of traumatised medical staff and we're still having his bearing that more than a hole for us is suffering. and many say they are ready to quit it's.
2:10 pm
conducted by the national order of nurses 57 percent of respondents said they were exhausted all 37 percent said the covert crisis had made them want to change jobs. this summer saw wave of layoffs and it became clear that the government will continue reducing hospital beds the thing is the government shot health workers in the back by refusing to admit that 31000 staff were infected with over 19 due to the lack of masks and medical robes many young nurses considered quitting the thought to themselves i won't work amid a staff shortage on a lower wage in terrible conditions risking the lives of patients i'd rather leave while i still can and many other moved abroad for example to switzerland or luxembourg where the wages for nurses a double worthy opened up their own practice where they themselves determine how much they work and get paid it comes as the french prime minister issued this
2:11 pm
warning the french thought too quickly that this virus was gone the reality of the 2nd wave is here they could be no more slackening. is the country facing problems with a medical right it's one of the u.k. prime minister was raving about the fantastic n.h.s. we will win because our n.h.s. is the beating heart of this country it is the best of this country. it is powered by love. so under the caution they were thinking of throwing in the towel last month more than 2 thirds who responded to a survey said they planned to quit the n.h.s. because of how close it had been handled many said they would this illusion and exhausted but there were other reasons too. 65 percent said
2:12 pm
a lack of personal protective equipment was a factor while 54 percent cited the inability to speak out. when we were left to work without the necessary equipment with patients who do not have covered one scene we could be the ones passing the infection to them for example university hospital centers knowingly told staff who tested positive it's nothing serious continue working when employees throughout france are asked to avoid any contact with people for at least 7 days at the same time nurses are told nope nothing serious continue no we disagree it contradicts our professional ethics because we are in danger in patients we will not put up with this when nurses are told to do more work extra hours work during the weekends it exhausts them and exhaustion leads to mistakes at work we don't want just because of fatigue because our management is exploiting us. medical staff have been vocal about the demands
2:13 pm
of this pandemic and while in some countries governments have put their hands in their pockets the bump up pay packets it's not nearly enough protests demanding more funding for health care and a better working conditions have sprung up across the continent thanks and praise from medical staff who have worked throughout the pandemic is always going to be welcome but medics want to remind people and a government that they owe no more for a cause and do less things turn the right. your playing countries could see a whole city of top business is technicians and many more leaving the service. so let's see what's going on. hospitality firms in the u.k. meanwhile are preparing a legal challenge against the government's latest coronavirus restrictions the rules include closures of pubs and nature businesses in parts of the country prime
2:14 pm
minister boris johnson has defended the new measures after a spike in cold cases. were not minor in this in the sense that i think they've closed the bars in paris and. berlin they've got the 1st few since she's 19 you know and so you know the. across europe and elsewhere you can see people tackling this in. very similar ways over a 3 tier lockdown system has been ruled out for england what the country split into risk levels in high risk zones people from different high schools are banned from mixing indoors in very high risk zones that rule against mixing applies both in the wars in addition pubs and gyms have to close the city of liverpool is bearing the full brunt of the restrictions but there are pushing back we heard from a spokesman for the pub invest group in the city he say's the government has deliberately made the rules and possible to fall. it seems to be
2:15 pm
a bit. many. that basically they are policy to push the blame onto our. hospitality treat the blame onto. the people set in the absolute truth. the government has worked with and hospitality to the best place we could the boy did a lot of these problems and now i think people's competence is more and more not because the rules are so on even you know on the hearts the hard to set to now the gate because of these rules are fast. food. abuse from the public who don't necessarily understand the rules that they have to. overnight 2 more statues of former presidents theodore roosevelt and abraham lincoln having toppled in portland amid riots and vandalism across the u.s.

themselves as independent or not affiliated with the political party on top of this whole after poll reveals voters want more choices since the 2 party system limiting . democracy. in. iraq with our to international the world health organization has warned governments about using lock downs as a primary control method against the spread of coal but not to. using lockdown as your primary control method lockdowns just one consequence that you must never. belittle and that is making pull people over for. the global economy as
2:18 pm
a whole has certainly felt the impact of luck dawns with one recent forecast suggesting it will contract by 5 percent in 2020 doubts the spiked government's together stumping up trillions of dollars to protect jobs and markets some analysts say the world could be entering its worst recession since the great depression now rick sanchez from r t america has been discussing the pros and the cons of lock down. these lock downs extended lock downs are ridiculous and are causing such economic and mental and health devastation at some point we have to have a conversation about how do we protect the most vulnerable but we've got to get back to work these lockdowns are devastating to the working class and i would argue that those that are are going for extended lock downs are anti working class i got your point but here's the other point here other countries that have been able to deal with this effectively vietnam south korea. new zealand some of them knocked it
2:19 pm
out in like weeks to a month and they didn't do it with a lockdown they did it with an entire list a bevy of things including testing immediate testing knowing who are the people who are isolating them i mean that is how it would appear like this disease right. you know i agree 100 percent they did it with the leadership structure they leaned in on the science they did it with a leadership structure and a government that understood what 1000 was and what type of a threat it was they did it by not acting like oh but 19 was a hoax at the end of the day we do have countries that have far exceeded the level of success when it comes to preventing individuals from contracting kobe 19 and i think that those are areas that we need to look towards in terms of the methods that they use but in each one that you just named they had government leadership that follow and acknowledge the fact that $1000.00 was a threat and developed a plan from day one whereas in america we had a president who completely ignores the threat and decided to keep going as if it would not affect us and acted as though we were somehow insulated because of what
2:20 pm
the united states and we have american blood running through our banks and i would argue if you didn't have these extended lock downs in california and new york that average would be even lower and you're seeing the g.d.p. come roaring back i will point out this i think the shame of it all in the spring is that trump listen too much to barracks and with faulty models including the marine model out of washington state if you hadn't and followed his instincts i think we'd be in a much better place if they were. a lot of people who still hosted house parties and other things i'm from chicago originally i know chicago shut down lockdown for a while yet their cases steadily went up but in large part that was because of basic human behavior and people not following the social distancing guidelines so i think that taking it construct with the other things that we've heard from organizations like the c.d.c. it's very important that we follow all of those things and not look to one as the magic bullet to ensure that people are healthy and say another aspect to this theme the u.s. pharmaceutical john johnson and johnson is pausing clinical trials of an experimental
2:21 pm
coronavirus vaccine after a volunteer felt sick. we have temporarily pools for the dosing in all our covert 19 vaccine candidate clinical trials due to an unexplained illness in the study participants adverse events illnesses accidents etc even those that are serious already expected parts of any clinical study especially large studies the johnson and johnson drug is one of 6 anti covert candidates being tested in the u.s. it's considered one of the most advanced being entered phase 3 trials in the u.s. government has already promised the firm more than $1000000000.00 for doses of the vaccine we heard from peter smith former vaccine safety advisor to the world health organization he believes multiple successful vaccines will be needed to meet global demand. i think there is pressure on all of banks and developers to develop 19 bank scenes as rapidly as possible because of the global emergency that
2:22 pm
we're in it sometimes a little bit difficult to sort of compare directly between trials but the truth is that one effective covert vaccine is going to be insufficient to meet the pope will demolish on so we really need a significant now but we've picked it back seems to the certainly place in the sort of global vaccination program of quite a large number of vaccines to be used we need such vaccines in order to be out or eventually right now. russia's foreign minister has urged european nations to die will die in their rhetoric against moscow circle of raf was speaking a day after each new diplomats call for sanctions against russian officials over the alleged poisoning of opposition activist alexei navalny. if the european union does not understand the need for mutually respectful dialogue with russia we will have to stop communicating with them it seems to be very serious now the alleged
2:23 pm
poisoning of alexander valley probably russia's most popular position figure continues deepening tensions between russia and its european partners earlier on tuesday foreign minister sergei lavrov had a more than an hour conversation with the u.s high representative mr burrell explaining to him russia's official position on the incident and this is when he was officially informed about the sanctions ironically later we heard mr burrell saying that the u.s. interested in good normal relations with russia well good relations and sanctions it doesn't really come together very well and now we hear mr lover of making it up slowly clear that mosque is considering cutting off its official relations with the e.u. uta what russia sees as the union's unacceptable behavior an arrogant attitude and also missed a larger of continuous urgent europe of sticking with the international law
2:24 pm
look at how the e.u. council on foreign policy went and the moralizing tone of what was said they accused russia of failing to use not unity to explain what happened to me i will not get into details but there are plenty of ways in which the european union has behaved completely inappropriately in the of on the case all this comes after the european union unanimously supported to germany and france as plan to impose individual sanctions against russians supposedly being involved in their ledge poisoning of a leg say in a valley with a nerve agent we do not know the details yet it is unclear what kind of restrictions we are talking about but reportedly it will target 9 citizens of russia and it will again reportedly include traditional travel ban and freeze of assets this is what germany's foreign minister had to say. we have initiated sanctions against individuals whom we believe to be partly responsible for this violation of international law it is important that the e.u.
2:25 pm
shows unity in such a serious crime we did today all the stars of the longest 20th when alexander virally fell terribly ill while on a plane back to moscow had to make an emergency landing in the russian side of almost can of bali was immediately hospitalized in and the response of condition so he was in a very very difficult situation his family and his supporters immediately started talking about poisoning but the russian medics repeatedly reported that no toxic materials were found in mist in the valleys blah the urine samples but 2 days later he was transported to germany almost immediately after that we started hearing from berlin 1st and then from france in sweden that mr volley was poisoned with a substance from the nabi chalk family and later the o.p.c. w. also confirmed it just saying that that particular service and low belonging to the nova chuck family is not banned and now we have sanctions. the u.s.

2:27 pm
the monuments columbus day is a celebration of white male mediocrity this is a person who got lost and got very very lucky you don't see for it swastikas in germany and for all intents and purposes hitler did things for germany that were beneficial to the germans but were so disgusting in the process that those symbols have been taken down in germany where they've had this true rec truth and reconciliation process i just don't think that we can exercise this from an angle centric lens a referring to it's our history now we might have all been combined or impacted in some sense but we were not impacted in the same way and this goes back to that indigenous idea of free prior and informed consent they were not informed and they did not give consent for these symbols of hate that have been literally etched in stone in something that was sacred to them that can't continue to happen and in some cases yes many of the statues may have to come down i didn't know lincoln had
2:28 pm
ordered the lynching of the 38 per store people who were trying to protect their families and this is an opportunity to understand yes lincoln is. revered in america for so many values that we hope to aspire to and yet we never really tell the story of what happened to 1st native people in america and what's happening to them today and that was brought out in that well not is our last for not for this news are both the programs are just beginning here on our to find out what is showing where you are today after the shores of breaks. the be. one else chose seemed wrong when old roles just don't hold. the old
