rand or our lands with one signator. we demand the prime minister quits establish a transitional government and hold elections the trying to twist it saying that they want to hold the elections but people don't it's not true passion has already proposed early elections but never fulfilled the promise it was done to calm down the streets only if he wants early elections he should set a date elections will eventually happen but without question i think he has no other choice but to quit another contentious issue that is still a source of a lot of tension right now is the fate of on a guest very on the head of the general staff of the armenian armed forces he and 40 top armenian generals. basically defied prime minister nicole accused him of being incompetent and said that he's dragging on the country to the brink of a war for that they were accused of staging a military coup and now we have contradicted information so we have this statement
11:31 am
from the general staff of the armenian armed forces and it says that on a guest on is going to stay in office seize not going anywhere he's going to carry on doing his job but. according to the prime minister and he's team the order to dismiss on he goes through on is valid and it comes into force tonight actually it already have come into the fore so this the situation where we can see a lot of tension we don't know how is going to play out and it's free much wait and see approach so both intense political negotiations and the on go and protest on a year of on street so let me give you a look what's going on here so everything that you are seeing right now makes the situation very volatile and on predictable in armenia. that's a news break down for this hour and that's all for me as well but we're not going to. we'll be taking over at about 30 minutes time thanks for joining.

11:46 am
inflicts a terrible toll especially on innocent men women children. today i stand with you and acknowledging the suffering and sacrifices on all sides of that conflict i also know that there are remnants of war continue to shatter lives here in laos so today i'm proud to announce a historic increase in these efforts the united states will double our annual fund to $90000000.00 over the next 3 years to help laos expand its one. of the. has. an insane and somewhat. i mean. no.

they have been our guide about how much that family have been and i mean not afraid of the fire and their lives in and out they run and you back in and. as a full moon tonight. you may get so damned our ticket man the man. who funds his government out on that but the us and. this morning i'm not so common that every man with the dew on the canal. president obama just made history by being the 1st sitting u.s. president to visit laos obama has so far refused to issue a formal apology for the secret u.s. bombing campaign in laos during its war on vietnam the u.s. secretly dropped $270000000.00 bombs on laos in part to cut off north vietnamese supply routes again margaret this plan $90000000.00 or so to help clean up and
11:50 am
detonated bombs still in the country what are the details this is $90000000.00 over 3 years to clean up what's called unexploded ordinance these are they look like little balls little kids pick them up and often become victims of these bombs that were dropped nearly 40 years ago in a war that this country was never technically a part of up to $80000000.00 of these failed to detonate and just one percent of them have been cleared obama's $90000000.00 for bomb clearance in laos it's not enough we bombed allow so much it is officially the most heavily bombed country per capita in all of human history the $19000000.00 obama pledged at 1st sounds like a lot numbers that everybody talks about that you brought up that are accurate as far as we know that we also know that that is the low estimate of that large numbers of airplanes that were sent to do bombing runs in vietnam for example came
11:51 am
back over lost to bases in thailand and on their way back would randomly drop their loads and we have no records wants to wherever those lows that were dropped so we don't actually know how much was dropped in the 1st place we know it's more than the numbers that we talk about experts say the president's visit shows that the u.s. is trying to make friends with countries near china to help balance out that nation's growing power in the region because of the problems and because of the lack of clean up because of the lack of recognition it continues to kill people and trouble this very undeveloped country there are fields that can't be plowed there is land that can't be developed there are children who are walking or. and you weren't even alive during the vietnam war you are missing arms and legs and limbs when we are able to come here and show respect for their culture recognize. our history. and. your point towards a future in which we work together we will actually have more influence we'll be able to promote our ideals more effectively that's part of what we've been able to
