the final u.s. presidential debate between donald trump and joe biden is happening today and with the clock ticking the question of social media has raised its head. quite frankly we are moving at a startling pace in terms of of all these platforms and we don't have the laws that really apply to them whoever is pretty gruesome for you somebody who's police say was this is our mainstream media. for us for weeks on the no signs of letting up the dispute between azerbaijan and armenia over when a car apocalypse remains hot our correspondent found himself points to the fighting . they couldn't take us to the frontline and in fact they didn't go either not only
1:01 am
because it's too dangerous but because the commanding officer of that particular platoon didn't want us filming this on the crew but 19 job the people who will save money may have killed one a young volunteer in the astra zeneca trial has died he thought reported case well why. it's just gone 8 am here in moscow you're watching options national i'm with very. welcome to the program. while with less than 2 weeks to go until the u.s. election the 2 presidential hopefuls are set to face off in the final debate on thursday but there's been a slight tweak to the rules moderators will now be able to mute the microphones of the counterfeits off to many dubs the previous event chaotic the choice of topics this time has also raised a few eyebrows as it won't include foreign policy many say this will deny trump the
1:02 am
chance to hit how to joe biden over the business dealings of his son with more and what's in store for us his auto caleb maupin. the final debate between the 2 presidential candidates is set no foreign policy issues are to be discussed furthermore the whole scandal involving joe biden's son and certain ukrainian natural gas companies is considered arguably to be a foreign policy issue so according to democrats it cannot be discussed because after all it's all a big russian conspiracy where we know that this whole smear on joe biden comes from the kremlin we want to emphasize that we do not know if the e-mails provided to the new york post by president personal attorney rudy giuliani a genuine or not and that we do not have evidence over russian involvement just it or experience makes us deeply suspicious that the russian government played
1:03 am
a significant role in this case now the national intelligence director the f.b.i. and the u.s. department of justice all think that's a little bit of a stretch hunter biden's laptop and the e-mails ometer are part of some russian this information campaign let me be clear the intelligence community doesn't believe that. i'm not aware of any russian descent from asian campaign that would involve these e-mails or this laptop so no questions about one of the biggest scandals involving one of the candidates so how else can we make sure the debate is fair to both sides there's always the mute button the presidential debates commission has actually decided that they will mute the microphones during certain portions of the debate they tell us this decision was made out of love for the american people we're comfortable that these actions straight the right balance and the during the interest of the american people for whom these to be their hallowed
1:04 am
so if you are looking forward to probing questions about key global issues or perhaps about the biden family scandals you're likely to be disappointed but at least we have that mute button and a guarantee of a level playing field for both candidates no bias none at all ala poppen artsy new york meanwhile republicans are asking for the twitter and facebook had to testify before congress and that political bias bounce off the platforms took down a link to a new york post article on hunt business dealings in ukraine is more i've got to have now delves into thought and a few control to see if it is often the case that those who trumpet loudest about being fair and unbiased aunt that's cool but things book really seems to mean that they want fair elections new meddling and the president that america wants and facebook wants so today i want to share the
1:05 am
steps that we're taking to protect election integrity and make sure that facebook is a force for good and democracy. part of what facebook is doing is hurrying people to police news and one of the things that they're censoring is about the current scandal so joe biden his son and ukraine which involves alleged meddling abuse of power blatant conflict of interest and a whole lot of money going into the bidens family cowards now if you try to share a link to an article about this on twitter or facebook here is what you get the link you are trying to access has been identified by twitter or our partners has been potentially spammy or unseat in accordance with tweeters you are pussy how does this happen how does that huge scandal get sent to the bidens have a lot of friends and one of those friends who now happens to work is election
1:06 am
integrity police that facebook is a certain anima can do i'm not used to work as joe biden senior policy adviser for europe and eurasia which includes ukraine perseid see when biden jr was raking in a standing sums of money for ukrainian energy company for doing well no one knows what while daddy told ukrainian authorities how to run that country. an american city by senior policy adviser for ukraine at the time also listened to the calls and said release of the transcripts would only strengthen biden's case that he acted properly she helped biden prepare for the conversations and said the old created at a high level if this wasn't enough corruption and cronyism for you adna was also a nonresident senior fellow at the atlantic council which dubs itself a nonpartisan think tank it also provided
1:07 am
a slew of stuff for obama and his democrats administration james jones susan rice etc the point is that the same time it was a devising joe biden at the same time his son was reportedly raking in millions of dollars from this ukrainian energy company the firm also began making payments to the atlantic council $100000.00 in donations so under allen is what this company was paying both biden jr her boss's son and the atlantic council for which she worked and now she's at facebook which previously partnered with the atlantic council and are you at all surprised that stories critical of barton are now disappearing while i will intentionally not link to the new york post i want to be clear that this story is eligible to be fact checked by facebook's 3rd party fact checking partners in the meantime we are reducing its distribution on our platform
1:08 am
breaking the news was ad d. stone a career democrat and as is tradition now a facebook spokesperson you couldn't make this up remember what i said about those who proclaim the neutrality loudest well facebook is and always has been an open transparent and nonpartisan platform where people can express themselves freely. freely are through approval from facebook senses and fracture his election integrity police and chances are a fool of a jew biden staffer aside from earth 3 well you know my colleague mccarron discussed this question of social media censorship on the american elections with a number of august. facebook google and twitter previously vowed to prevent election to ferentz through their platforms to what extent do you think they've managed to fulfill that promise i don't really know what twitter or facebook could
1:09 am
have done what they have instead done is made a horrifying promise that they can regulate truth that is hard enough to do in a world that is it politics where does information is part of the game i've done you will all aware this big scandal right now is the joe biden son hunter biden the files from his lap top link to the new york post and twitter and facebook have been actively blocking that story do you think that justified in doing that no of course they're not justified it was an absolutely outrageous act i mean they showed a significant bias in going after the hunter biden disclosures and i've read the hunter biden emails may strike me as perfectly valid perfectly plausible so i believe the story and i think that that that twitter and facebook are are deliberately trying to withhold information from the public in a clear effort to swing the election well we know that in contrast to what happened with uninviting story we didn't think about the christopher seal which exploded
1:10 am
across the world we get so used to get creams utterly discredited and so by our own f.b.i. so relieved to be it's crystal clear that whoever is these are operating these are events and our previous companies heavily say was as is our mainstream media less and less and it is pushing down back aggressively right now in ways that i think may very well suppress results and say the 2020 election in this country do you think many ways to be legal changes to restrict the power of online platforms to decide what we can accommodate quite frankly we are moving at a startling pace in terms of all these platforms and we don't have the laws that really apply to them they've made. promises they can't keep and they are trying to . please their user base is based solely on the the outrage of the moment the fact that twitter banned that hunter biden link for
1:11 am
a couple days then reversed it on friday and yet still the new york post can't unlock their their twitter account is exactly all you need to know to show what kind of coherence exists inside of twitter which on this issue is nonexistent i mean we should really be we should really adopt a very strict free speech standard here which does away with us as a ship and poses the very concept but the important point is that the censorship is being imposed on facebook and twitter by the government the government is afraid of these platforms liberals and democrats are both pushing for for increased government regulation and i think it's in the salt on free speech so i think of the of the sheet as much free speech as possible and that means there will be bad speech but the only remedy for bad speech is good speech more good speech and do you think it's
1:12 am
a harming the democratic process in the us you know i think that they are providing a tremendous service in terms of giving us the platform to communicate with each other the problem is them not setting hard ground rules and keeping to them in a way that is actively harming their ability to be those free platforms and the people who are harming the democratic process in the us or the republican and democratic parties. or the faith conflict between azerbaijan and armenia has entered its 4th week in the hostilities so no signs of letting up with the disputed nagorno-karabakh region reporting of shelling in the region on wednesday right from the sun here's donald. the past couple of days have been relatively peaceful in the city asta panic at the capital of the go in a cab back we could still hear the explosions in the sky as the air defenses have been trying to shoot down here by january vs but more or less it has been all right
1:13 am
so right now we head into the north to the northern front line which is one of the 2 remaining major hotspots in the corner a cab back our drivers brother is serving there so he's bringing food and warm clothes as we're going our driver keeps glancing to the right there's only a couple kilometers between our car and does area artillery the road is being heavily shelled. the homely smell of freshly baked bread filling the car seems out of place as we're approaching the front line town so this is where we had to get out the city of the century they couldn't take us to the front line and in fact they didn't go either not only because it's too dangerous but because the commanding officer of that particular platoon didn't want us filming there so that we don't give out the positions but the city of mark the capital it has no rest this is just one of hundreds of craters left all around the city just this tuesday the armenian forces
1:14 am
managed to repel a $700.00 strong attack here now that the as every command knows how students the resistance is they've cranked up the bombardments by an order of magnitude. live on our driver has to unload his cargo here he knows that there will be no shortage of good samaritans willing to pass it on to those in the trenches when there's a break in the fighting of course meanwhile live on and his friends can do more good collecting a new batch of supplies. our friends from russia send us what we need or we buy supplies ourselves and bring them to those who need it. dawn of reporting from the northern front line in the going to care about. the tensions in the want to stretch back more than 3 decades the fighting did escalate in late september the 2 nations armenia and azerbaijan agreed on
1:15 am
a humanitarian ceasefire but since have accused each other of violating it although the region is populated predominantly by ethnic armenians over 90 percent it is legally part of by john on wednesday azerbaijan quaint it took control of several villages in the disputed region and as alleged evidence the country's defense ministry published this footage we spoke to some as a refugee who had to flee their homes in a corner car bomb always thought years ago when the conflict fust broke out. still not enough i am overwhelmed with joy we've been waiting for this for 27 years and all of a sudden you hear the news of liberation i was 25 before the occupation and went to school there my youth was there and now i'm on my way back what do i feel. when we are forced to leave the village i felt so terrible as i was leaving the grave of my brother behind me i was crying when visiting his grave for the last
1:16 am
time as the enemy was approaching. by the time of occupation i had been married for a year and had a young child who left her village with empty hands since then we have lived in but cool thanks to the authorities and our soldiers will be back home soon i have one hector of land saw grow crops and thinking of cattle farming as well i have 3 children and they dream of going back to our village let my internal house with all belongings disappear i just want my land back i need that land. we left our hearts and souls and really our best memories are tied to this city for these past 27 years i have been thinking of when and how we would return almost almost all my colleagues i worked with there we were all scattered throughout the country it was very painful for me as i can find words to express my feelings of
1:17 am
loss. and all the cities liberated but i can hardly believe it i feel doubtful as to whether we will manage to relieve our best days over there like it was before the occupation. was my 1st thing i'll do is restore my house i have so many dreams and desires for when i am back it is hard to express it in words i told my kids a lot but they need to see the place on their own to fully understand my stories leaving food really was the end of the world for me. was 14 all i remember is bombs being dropped on our heads i have been a taxi driver for the last 10 years driving from baquba to villages of food elite controlled by our troops it is some 25 kilometers from those villages to fully itself it is easily visible i really wanted to drive there but it was impossible i'm so happy and grateful to our soldiers that i can make my dream come true the years of displacement will be in my memory forever i do not wish that on anybody.
