9:03 am
peacekeepers making their way to the gold make a buck 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. you know, 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
9:04 am
has lost everything. nothing's left. i beg, lusher to help us to let the rest lead well on our lands. it's painful. of course. we see russian troops are coming. hopefully they will keep the peace. the russian peacekeeping mission, they kept, 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 the 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 made tremendous gains areas that they believe are historically. there's the recognized internationally, as they said by john in people who had been forced to evacuate 30 years ago. and
9:05 am
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, he will return there with great pleasure, as this is our lead and then use about the liberation and prospect of return has put behind all the hardship we had for all this years. and want to help to 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
9:06 am
and which is held there is however, an enormous amount of work to be done. there is an enormous amount of uncertainty of 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. stably livable conditions a big, i'm sure. sure people have somewhere to return to were aghast. if there were just remind you. then last week, armenia and azerbaijan signed a peace deal ending 6 weeks of fighting over the nagorno-karabakh enclave. both
9:07 am
sides will hold on to their current positions and that gives armenia control of the disputed regions. capitals, the penikett as a bridge on gets the 2nd largest city there, shushi, which it took just before the fighting ended. armenia will also have to hand over 3 other districts in the region where black, who has extended the deadline for armenia to pull out its troops and civilians from those districts, thousands of residents, there are fleeing their homes, their own, even burning them down. so as not to leave them to who they see as the enemy explained that painful decision. and we had a good life. 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, but 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. now i'm a refugee. we are taking down our houses and i don't know where we are going. i had
9:08 am
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 that washington is threatened further. sanctions on tehran to mark the anniversary of iran's 2019 anti-government protests . the u.s. state department says it will take action against the country's quote agents of repression. the reigning regime tried to hide the evidence of its 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 repeatedly claimed that he was the winner or joe
9:09 am
biden has declared himself president elect saying he's ready to take over the white house in late january. but until then, sunday, fear that trump will 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 horror stories, but it'll probably go through the legal process 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, yanked off the w.'s of the white house keyboards. it cost
9:10 am
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. and november 4 years ago, the head of crumbs moved to d.c., began doing everything to turn his white house, stay into misery after they planted the russia gay bomb under the oval office chair, to play on his nerves throughout the whole term. what should you expect if not
9:11 am
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, always 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
9:12 am
the revival of the nuclear deal with a win by throwing new sanctions at them. could he stunned the dems by pardoning julius? it was him who helped shine the light on the d.n.c. emile's 4 years ago. right. what if another trump 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 them to reveal. anyway, lame duck thriller, bring it on. well with the fallout from november, the 3rd still unraveling joe biden. isn't my sting much time his new administration is taking shape as the democrats look to fill the top ranks of the white house, but it's down who can snag explains some of the names might be very familiar. 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. that
9:13 am
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 the 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 after accusations 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 the time i relied solely and squarely on the information provided to me by the intelligence community. and rice
9:14 am
was one of those who had 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 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, i 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 and escalation of u.s. involvement in syria. she's also a hard liner on both russia and china,
9:15 am
for our oil once said 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 long standing traditions. moral would no doubt be successful, bringing his plans to fruition in the new biden administration. we need to make iranians pay a price in syria. we need to make the russians pay a price. the only thing i mean, you 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 expect the
9:16 am
adjustments to the world's largest military budget with an economy heavily disrupted by a 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. the advice from boy his advisors is certainly clear. and with many on his pentagon transition team working for think tank, sponsored by nato government, such as the u.a.e. and qatar and laws, all his wife actress. why wouldn't it be fun is running mates 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
9:17 am
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 i hope will 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 4 years of america coming to an end, while baden's intent to rejoin some international agreements and institutions will leave many optimistic. this will be tempered with strong caution. as the hawks in
9:18 am
his administration arrive back in town and hawkins than i'm nations in the asia pacific have joined forces to form the worlds biggest trade blog. the newly forged group is already the 2nd in the region, which does not include the usa called the regional comprehensive economic partnership. the trade deal was signed by 15 asia pacific economies, including china, south korea, as well as japan. and it covers a huge market of over 2000000000 people, which does account for a 3rd of the world's g.d.p. when negotiating to form the new bloc did drag on for around 7 years. donald trump's president talks, did stall, as the u.s. declared, the idea of protectionism. a new block sets that reduced tariffs while over the last few years the united states has tried to increase them. so let's get the views . now. if jim rogers is a financial commentator, well versed in all of this,
9:19 am
jim. good afternoon. a massive new trade block is being created. how will this boost growth, do you think in the asia pacific? well, andrew, yes, you're exactly right. mr. trump is making china great again. you know, he dropped out of the t p. p. he left asia and now our china and other asian nations are putting themselves together. this is one of the largest trade blocs in the world, if not the largest, certainly by population. it's great for asian, it's great for china's not good for the united states. how much she think the united states will actually suffer then as a result of this? well, it's lost opportunity. i mean, we're not that it will take us. it's going to lose any money specifically because of this. but when you see the chinese and the koreans and the japanese making free trade agreements with each other, those are a very, very, very big economies and nations a big, i mean there are 15 nations here, most of which are very prosperous and successful. and now the u.s.
9:20 am
is not part of it yet. i mean, it's interesting, isn't it, jim? because america was trying to encourage the rest of the world twice like china, but obviously that hasn't happened. you know, it's, it's not just that certainly as an average, as i said, you got korea, which is supposed to us ally, japan and other u.s. ally, you know, most of these comp countries are supposedly close u.s. ally. now they've all made a big free trade agreement with china. as i said, mr. trump is making china great again. so why do you think shame joe biden comes into office? how you think he will respond? well, i hope he's smart enough to try to open things up again with all of asia, including china, trade wars have never been useful or successful for anybody. nobody's ever want to trade war. you know that, andrew, and i hope mr. biden is smart enough to know that too, and try to bring america back into asia and other trading nations. with regard
9:21 am
to this deal of night is a lot of major recording it a coup for china. is that the right way to frame it? i mean, machine is a great deal for all 50 nations that have signed up this started 810 years ago. it's not, not a such. you could explain where all these nations have been working on this a long time. it really, really started with ozzy, our nation's attention and it has been expanded to other nations including china. it's certainly good for china, a coup for china. i would know if i call it a coup. it's been going on a long time, but certainly good for them. though, is this a pretty well to greater integration or is this is far as it goes. i mean, people might look at the european union and, you know, i put that on a pedestal inside. that's what you should be aiming for is that is the last sort of incentive in that part of the world today. what the european union has done. i
9:22 am
cannot imagine something like that would happen in asia. are you going to tell me that the koreans are going to be like the indonesians, like and like us part of the problem and in your way, the e.u. is, you know, as one of the raises under stress, you know, for suddenly to say, for brussels to say to the fans, oh, you got to be like the greeks and further, you know, other people say, oh, you got to be like a portuguese, and say, what are you talking about? you know, we're our own culture, our own nation, our own, whatever i don't, you don't, i cannot imagine that something like that would happen in asia. i think that they have learned the lessons from the e.u. . it trying to put together a free trade zone is fabulous. for everybody trying to tell everybody how to act and to be like people that they're not will not work. ok jim, always good to talk to you. that was that jim rogers, that author and financial commentator, thanks for coming on. thank you. had now

9:24 am
a significant increase in the number of people who taste covered positive. is it possible that israel could stott the vaccinations before the trial concludes? and once it will be rick who lives in israel, has it all to isaac c. . well, we already are wage and put in buying it from them for the people refused. ready we decided to says right por, to apply to power. he's really minister of to submit to ration in order to be just fixing really be bop. of the books in that all tourist might easily minister who 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 up with action products in here with conclusive, going to be the tories in south america. and asia, and they don't break, they are collecting more and more countries. so the interest of would be to shift
9:25 am
the percent of the war to be vaccinated. but do action book should we like to be smallpox and washing out international? that's how the news is looking, as i thought i could have a company, always plenty of stories, as we keep telling you on our website that sets off, it'll come back again over the headlines and more stories in about 35
9:26 am
during the vietnam war there was a secret war and for years the american people did not know millions of unexploded bombs still lives in this small agricultural country. go is the us making amends for that tragedy and help to the people in that little
9:27 am
there's a lot on the bone, but most actual big city, bright lights, you jump, but you know, g.'s and many dangers of the risk of the blade of the right to do it's also a city where up 230-0000 crimes are committed every over the last little bit with the new almost it's still true. there was a police one police officer think every 200 residents in russia's capital cost on law. wish i didn't put the truth that they will not go with the boys soon because of the people who would have to watch them
9:28 am
alone and welcome the cross-talk or 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 off with the neo cons? again, be 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 you know, it's me internet media project. all right, gentlemen, crossed up rules in effect,
9:29 am
that means you can jump in anytime you want. and i always appreciate, ok, i was going to budapest, george trump, maybe if he's not inaugurated again in january would 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 made it in 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 busy 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
9:30 am
and he has a right and the duty to implement his policy. and what we're getting is that they're venting is explicitly just ignoring the instructions from the commander in chief. so we get in afghanistan in which the united states has actually signed an agreement with the taliban, committing itself to withdrawing by early next year. and the pentagon decide whether or not that i'm not going to implement this policy. they're going to condition it on what the military regards as the situation on the ground. even though there's nothing in the agreement with the taliban in which the departure of the americans is condition on the situation on the ground. the only situation that the united states deem as a deal breaker.
