well, we're going to watch the headlines this hour. more scope continues to send peacekeepers the newborn. i carried back region to monitor a cease fire agreement between armenia. and there's a big ol correspondents on his way to the city of panic at the russian mission will be a base. meanwhile, armenians who have been living in areas due to be handed over to back a wonder the deal burned their homes rather than leave them to the enemy. we had a good life. now we are tearing down the houses. we built ourselves. i know one thing for sure. i wouldn't even want my baby to find himself in a situation like this. it is very hard because we do not have any other choice. and despite donald trump still contesting the u.s. presidential election, joe biden is already picking his team for the white house. but his lineup could feature many controversial faces from the backers of disastrous wars to those

linked with the arms industry. and we speak to the head of a top israeli hospital that has ordered russian sputnik. the vaccine is the cove, the jap goes through its final phase of testing. we do actually look, she will i welcome. good afternoon. you're watching r.t. international. she's gone to a clock care in moscow. now russia has started to send peacekeepers to monitor the cease fire between armenia and azerbaijan. brokered the deal a week ago, stop the bloodshed in the disputed region of nagorno-karabakh. well, these are some of the latest pictures of the quitman. hundreds of

a cotton personnel landing in armenia. the mission will last for 5 years with an automatic extension if it is required. the traces are already allowing some refugees to return home and overnight, almost 500. armenians came back from the capital, yet a van to the disputed regions, largest to cities. to panic it and russian peacekeepers did oversee a convoy of 1000 buses. full of people, a lot is not a gas, is on the way to the peacekeeping mission in the region and sent this report. while the peacekeeping force that is supposed to be stationed in the garden, has almost been brought up to the full strength. we witnessed this morning get another very large convoy of russian peacekeepers making their way to their god. look at our back with aside from their 2000 about 2000 peacekeepers, the russian side has also published a detailed map of what the area of the garden will look like. the operations of the

russian peacekeeping mission, they'll be in the observation, post monitoring stations in the northern area, married in the southern area, and 7 in the aegean sea corridor, a thin strip of land connecting me near to the pro armenian either there's a lot of anger with the way the war turned out, there's a lot of sadness with how many people have died. and the ultimately people are just thankful that it is concluded, i really hope is with russians. they are our saviors need. the us new europe helped us, the international community was signed in throughout these times. in our prime minister sold this land. it was only the russians who came to say this, but our nation has lost everything. nothing's left. i beg lasher to help us to let the rest leave well on our lands. it's painful, of course, but we see russian troops are coming. hopefully they will keep the peace. the russian p keeping mission in step by the carrot is acting as

a sort of mediation headquarters that is organize a communication between the 2 sides if it directly between media. and i said about john, they have already organized, for example, in exchange of the remains of soldiers who'd been killed and whose bodies both sides were unable to collect. things are being very differently on the, by johnny side, out of the there isn't quite the sadness that the reason the armenian side, they've made tremendous gains areas that they believe are historically. there's the recognized internationally, as i said by john in people who had been forced to evacuate 30 years ago. and now overjoyed that they're heading back to whom the been unable to return to for 30 years in peace. i'm so grateful to our soldiers and our president who will return there with great pleasure as this is our last and then use about the liberation and

prospect of return has put behind all the hardship you had for all this year's winner have you? me now, i'm so happy that our lands are liberated and grateful to all who made this country . i'm so joyful to return to my land well waiting for a signal from the government to return. we're already packing up our stuff. over the course of this 6 week conflict that had been many attempts to establish a ceasefire. international attempts by russia by the united states could also pressure from all over the world. and nothing seemed to hold until the 10th of november when russian president vladimir putin help mediate this latest ceasefire, which was signed by the president of us here by john the prime minister of armenia and which is held there is however, an enormous amount of work to be done, there is an enormous amount of uncertainty about the, the 10s of thousands of refugees that have been displaced from their homes,

from their villages over the course of this conflict. uncertainty about their future where they'll return to if, if they'll return to their homes at all with there's also a huge amount of problems with the humanitarian situation in the god they care about. there is a lack of basic medicine. there is lack of services. heating, very cold temperatures will boost of this is now the priority. stablished livable conditions a big thing. sure. sure people have somewhere to return to where audacity of their will to remind you under the peace deal, both sides will hold on to their current military positions and that gives armenia control of the disputed regions. capitals, the panic it as a began gets the 2nd largest city shushi, which it took just before the fighting ended. armenia will also have to hand over to 3 other districts in the region, but meanwhile, has extended the deadline for armenia to pull out troops and civilians. from those

districts, thousands of residents, there are fleeing their homes though an even burning them down so as not to leave them to the enemy. they explained that painful decision and we had a good life here. and now we have what we have. now we are tearing down the houses, we built ourselves. i don't know what will happen next. and i don't know what to say. what can i see? it's hard to speak about it. i know one thing for sure. i wouldn't even want my enemy to find himself in a situation like this. i've lived here for 20 years, and now i'm a refugee. we are taking down our houses. i don't know where we are going. i had little build in my house for 12 years. now i am taking it down. it is very hard, very hard, but we do not have any other choice. but as well as keeping the peace moscow has undertaken to safeguard religious buildings to you with a christian ministry, one of the 1st to come under protection.

the chimneys on the basement. i don't want to believe that we came here to say goodbye. there are no such armenian castellan center where else when need to save them. they s. just not substance. i came here not to say goodbye, but for an ordinary visit. i'm sure that in a week a month or 3 will come back to daddy bank again. it is ours and we will not give it away

each combo. there was a lot of restoration work done and that have police told upon stolen with my own hands. i have cared for it as i would care for my own child. i still do not believe that data has to be surrendered to the assyrians by washington is threatening further sanctions on tehran in a statement to mark the anniversary of iran's 2019 anti-government protests. the us state department has pledged action against the country's quite agents of repression. the ring regime tried to hide the evidence of his brutal crackdown through censorship, intimidation,

and still refuses to allow independent investigations into the killings that perpetrated. the united states will continue to promote accountability by announcing further actions against the agents of repression. later this week to bring a measure of justice to the iranian people, the longest suffering victims of the islamic republic of iran. meanwhile, the outcome of the us presidential election remains contested nearly 2 weeks on from the vote. donald trump has repeated and came to his one by joe biden, has declared himself president elect saying he is ready to take over the white house after inauguration in january. but until then, some day fear that trump will actually use his final months to toughen foreign policy in a prank or as more america's in for a chilling thriller called the lame duck president ready to bite. and it's getting worse and worse every day. we're hearing stories that are horrors, but it'll probably go through the legal process and wait, conducts bite. certainly. if the ducks last name is trump,

what if the man who's been slagged off as the worst president is america now has something in mind that would make the same folks call him the most disastrous, lame duck president and u.s. history. those easy, good old times when the incoming george w. bush administration only had to deal with a few pranks after the clinton people left be yanked off the w.'s of the white house keyboards. it cost a few $1000.00 to repair that. if only in 2020, the dems could get away with such harmless banter. donald trump's opponents are in fear. the media are showing this story over and over. they're loving it. maybe it's their last chance to get a piece of the trump hating pie. but hey, seriously, people as important as the former head of the cia are super worried. he's like a cornered cat tiger. and he is going to lash out mr. brennan, even once mike pence to suddenly turn his back on pows and save america from the

wild, lame duck. i think they would seriously consider booking the 25th amendment and pushing donald trump out. all right, well after the obama administration, here's some of them in november 4 years ago ahead of trump's move to d.c. began doing everything to turn his white house, stay into misery after they planted the russia gate bomb under the oval office chair, to play on his nerves throughout the whole term, what should you expect if not revenge, contacts between president elect donald trump's advisors and russian officials. he's alone in being unwilling to accept the view that this was done by the russians . trump is already act like a russian with one phrase on their mind. that is, he's got nothing to lose. pundits are trying to calculate the likelihood of spoiler moves. after all, the lame ducks already caused a stir at the pentagon. president travels purging the top ranks of the pentagon, 48 hours after the election was called for joe biden. president trump is just fired

. his defense secretary sell his big news when the secretary of defense is fired and that is what the president says he has just done to the now outgoing secretary of defense. so watch now to try to pull out of ghana stand all of a sudden or start operations against iran, even without triggering world war 31 of the angry doc groups. the final hopes for the revival of the nuclear deal with iran by throwing new sanctions at them. could he stunned the dems by pardoning julia? so it was him who helped shine the light on the d.n.c. emile's 4 years ago. right. what if another trumped twitter rant causes a new wave of street unrest? what if you reveal something classified and dodgy that would hurt america? although some would say he's the kind of president who has more to hide than to reveal. anyway, lame duck thriller, bring it on well,

despite the controversy still surrounding the election, joe biden is working fast and has already made keep aches for top posts, but as one who explains that doesn't necessarily mean new faces. the votes over, but not yet official. and so biden is gearing up for his move into the white house and his message to the world leaders. big changes are afoot in washington. i'm letting you know that america is back. we're going to be back again. so what does the return of the old america mean for the rest of the world? here's how the administration could look. while it's an inclusive lineup with several new faces. the candidates are heavyweights of american politics. let's take a closer look at c.v.s. . the hands down favorite for secretary of state is susan rice, who served both as national security advisor and u.s. ambassador to the u.n. under barack obama. a strong advocate for the intervention in libya and u.s.

involvement in other states. rice was in the planning to replace hillary clinton as secretary of state. she withdrew because ations that she misled the public over the 2012 benghazi terror attack. explanation about how 4 americans died in benghazi, libya by ambassador rice, i think does not do justice to the reality. at that time, i relied solely and squarely on the information provided to me by the intelligence community. and rice was one of those who never let go of trump kremlin collusion. even just a few months ago, she was adamant that russia had its hands all over the election. i almost never say this can but 100 percent chance that russia is doing much of what in 2016, and certainly a lot of confidence seems to be gone now that joe biden is projected as the winner . the likely nominee for pentagon chief is michelle

flournoy obama's former undersecretary of defense who helped persuade the president at the time towards a military intervention in libya on humanitarian grounds. you know, we supported the intervention in libya on humanitarian grounds. i think we were right to do a supporter of the u.s. troop surge in afghanistan of u.s. involvement in syria. she's also a hard liner on both russia and china flower noise. so that future warfare may come in many flavors and with advocates of big bets on new weapons. at the head of the pentagon, america can expect a full menu of delicacies it's no secret. the cia has historically been a pillar of u.s. foreign policy. and one of the picks for cia boss is michael morrell, rose to prominence during the obama years. he's already familiar with the job serving twice as acting director, a man steeped in the cia's longest standing traditions. morrell would no doubt be

successful, bringing his plans to fruition in the new biden administration. we need to make the iranians pay a price in syria. we need to make the russians pay a price. the only thing, i mean you, we make them pay the price by killing killing russians. yes. nothing highlights the agency's prestige better than a director, openly plotting covert assassinations around the world. and if you expected some adjustments to the walls, largest military budgets with an economy heavily disrupted by rampant pandemic, those will probably only go one way. i've met with a number of my devises and some have suggested in certain areas the military budget is going to have to be increased. it vies from boyd as advisors is certainly clear . and with many on his pentagon transition team working for a think tank, sponsored by nato government, such as the u.a.e. and qatar and laws, always one if, actress, why wouldn't it be fun is voting might commodity. this was also

a critic of america's withdrawal from syria. should have blind administration might good on her ambiguous post-election promise to make a return to standing with partners in syria. these firms could be in to make a killing. on the one hand, we're looking at competence. people who are clearly competent in the job that they're doing. now, on the other hand, you can be competently implementing bad policy. and i think that's what we're going to be looking at in the future abided ministration. if it comes to pass, it will be bad policy interventionist policy. it will lead to more wars. joe biden himself is an interventionist. i mean, this is a man who promoted intervention in libya, promoted in redemption in syria. he's a man who voted for the war in iraq in the definitive vote afterwards. and so he's going to surround himself with people who are similarly inclined. you know, the world today doesn't necessarily want the united states to be the dominant power . the world, once united states to be as a friend, a big brother,

somebody who will help them, but not dominate them. abidin is more of the dominating school, and i don't think this bodes well for america's relationship with the rest of the world or for the united states. we simply can't afford to keep doing this kind of aggressive intervention trumps for years of america for stocks. well baden's intent to rejoin some international agreements on institutions will leave many optimistic . this will be tempered with strong caution. as the hawks in his administration arrive back in town to lead to an r.t.d. top level figures are increasingly breaking the time restrictions will tell you the latest to be 9 and shamed. just join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to us on the

world of politics. sports business, i'm show business. i'll see you then world is driven by a dream else. so there is great. the day there's things we dare to ask for help is facing probably his last battle as president. will he try over the generals and bill by his foreign policy pick up where willingly o'collins again,

be back in control. oh well come back now. anything is right, a hospital is awarded one and a half 1000000 doses of russia's sputnik favor saying, which is in the 3rd and final phase of trials in 37 clinic has a branch in moscow and is involved in the testing of his 4th slayer spiked with the hospitals to write the russian book seem the he's safe and this is it in india because siri to be deferred one in boxing over the ward is very dense in many countries and russian is only one of them. it looks as russian, oh, i would say i want to 1st to come to the market. i'll be a movie, much dependent on them in all, no ministry in order to prevent it. if we choose from the way we are following up on d. development of just books and a couple of months,

not only that we should be about it about it too. but to proceed to it was invented to get military situation in moscow. we like the idea last month is also a spike in cases if there's not a significant increase in the number of people who taste covered positive. is it possible that israel could start the vaccinations before the trial concludes? once it will be rick who knows in israel, has it all to isaac c. . well, we already have arranged in and puts in buying it from them. ok for the people refused. 'd we decided just as right for to apply to our israeli minister to have to submit to ration in order to the districts in will be part of the works in the tourist. but the usual minister has its executive decision for me out today. what we can do, he's to extend to face truth,

tried and true equal to and to use here he's a and b. are looking forward. maybe even to establish on line a for the action scene here. things that can climb, who you see going to be tourists in south america and to far east asia. and they don't break their collecting more and more countries. so the images of would be destroyed, she percent of the war would be vaccinated, but do action book should we like to be smallpox to me while politicians are increasingly fighting the very anti cabbage rolls they said. and despite the us now facing a new surge in coronavirus cases, california governor gavin newsome is a pit of being caught sneaking off to a birthday party after telling people to stay at home. but he is far from the only high profile figure to set a bad example. and

we're really responsible and we make sure that everyone in our family and our close friends are tested religiously. so, you know, we do what we can, we try to follow the cording to the production. it was the last day of shooting. it was a celebration scene hygiene requirement or it here to the production deliberately put the shoot with many people involved.

and everybody were a mess i think, you know, if you are aware you know, people look up to you or you have access to air the media. i, you know, maybe something was you as a role model you actually, you know, should have you're ever in the middle of a socially distance. you have to wear a mask. i think it's all in those kinds of positions.

you know, to practice in behavior and show the public at your behavior quite like the some other news now and serious long time. foreign minister has died at the age of 79. while it was the country's top 50, not the last 50 years denouncing foreign intervention in syria's civil war, his health has worsened after suffering heart problems. a candidate pledging closer ties to the e.u. has claimed moldova's presidential election. my son do incumbent evil though than you has previously you had previously allied himself with russia. however, bowden is disputing the vote and more take his claim to the courts. police have clashed with anti lock down. protesters made multiple arrests, and rome's central square. italian government is tougher measures in areas worst hit by the 2nd wave of the pandemic. the country suffering tens of thousands of new cases a day. and for nasa astronauts are being taken to the international space station

on a privately owned flight. the very 1st time, the space x. capsule is due to arrive later on month. your security international half past 2 in the afternoon in moscow. that's how things are looking more from us and 30 1 else seems wrong, but also just don't let me get to sleep out. just a cup. because betrayal. when so many choose to look for common ground.

during the vietnam war, u.s. forces also bombs in neighboring laos. there was a secret war. and for years the american people did not know how much it is officially carry back country per capita. human history, millions of unexploded bombs still in danger lives in this small agricultural country. even today, kids in laos full victims of bombs dropped decades ago. is the us making amends for that tragedy. and what help do the people need in that little land on

a low in welcome across soccer, all things are considered. i'm peter lavelle. trump is facing probably his last battle as president. will he triumph over the generals and will by his foreign policy pick up where obama left up with the neo cons? again, even back in control. to discuss this and more, i'm joined by my guest, george samueli. in budapest, he's an author and a you tuber apa gabble. and in moscow, i'm joined by dmitri and she is a political analyst and editor and interest me internet media project. all right, gentlemen, crossed up rules in effect, that means you can jump in anytime you want. and i always appreciate this going to

budapest, george, maybe if he's not raters again in january. be fighting the last battle of his term in office here, and it's with the pentagon. it's with the generals here, and i think it's being under played very much in the media. this is a very serious business right now. he's, they didn't phatic lee clear that isn't ministration will pull out troops from, from afghanistan, possibly also from syria. and it's, i find it quite odd that we keep hearing from the liberal media that trump may resort to a coup to stay in power. well, looks to me that the pentagon and the national security state is committing a coup against trump in the last months of his residency by not obeying direct orders from the commander in chief. this is serious business. go ahead, george. it is extremely serious because he is the commander in chief and.
