6:01 pm
armenian prime minister nicholson young step down. and this comes in just always up, the russian peacekeepers mediated a truce and they're going to cut a box of the following. but cruise minutes, your operation in the us, the by joining beach in the for must go to the world. you'll watching all the international minus p to scotts, and these are the top stories. this our the defense ministry of us the by john has expressed is condolences of the desk of russian peacekeepers and then a gordon, a kind of box region. but q says as a by genuine rational saw it is a now of the seems to investigate the incident which a group of russian service men were shot dead by on known assailants while on duty . on september 20th, during their return from the observation post of the russian peacekeeping contingent in the area of the supplement. the junior tug a call with russian service and was filled with small arms. as a result of the shilling, the russian service men who were in the call with killed russian and as of
6:02 pm
a journey representative of the investigative bodies a working on the spot to clarify all the circumstances of the incident. while the attack against the russian peacekeepers came moments after the ethnic armenian side, and they'll also be just side, effectively agreed to a cease fire deal. and the attack in which this took place was in the village of john, you outside, which is effectively in the center of the conflict as it stands. it's a highly heated environments, but of course there was the guarantee of a ceasefire. so these, this attack came as a bit of a surprise. of course, tensions were high. the fact that russian peacekeepers were target, it could be the surprising element here. in fact, we did hear from russian officials on the matter of course went into detail about the attack, saying that there was shell fire. the for ministry did issue a statement. in fact, the spokeswoman for the ministry money as a hold of a commented on the matter. and let's take a listen at what she said before we continue pressed and piece. do the following. brushing peacekeepers who is always took
6:03 pm
a blow for the sake of peace in the region. the dog, in gratitude, with which the unscrupulous tried to question their activities, will not overshadow their feet. but it will fall on this lenders within 2 enough she, there's been a similar case in 2020 during the 2nd quarter about war and events that took place during that war, which resulted in the shooting down of a russian military helicopter. uh, but in the instance, the opposite page on the side essentially issued a statement saying that they uh essentially shut down the helicopter. that it was a mistake. but one of the most important factors in this case would be that the announcement came almost immediately after the incidents. there has been no mention about who the ones who was involved in this incidents, nobody taking responsibility for the attack. so it's pretty harsh, pretty quiet, but investigators are carrying out their investigation. and when they learn more, we'll have a better idea as to what really happened there in the region. there wasn't peacekeepers were killed just hours after the ceasefire came into force. i'm,
6:04 pm
can you tell me a bit more about that deal, please? they were expected to put an end to the hostilities and lay down their arms. and that was an important points that the other major, the presidents a how do you have made and his address to the nation tonight in this address, president of the, of the underlying the fundamental issues and concerns that it has. and moving forward to the most important thing would be to adhere to the rules of the agreements that was broken by russia. and that much of the developments will be undertaken and overlooked by russian peacekeepers. and potentially speaking could lead to a roadmap that could see peace in this region. so all day today has been effectively a back and forth between different officials essentially claiming their concerns about the issue. we heard more from the ethnic armenians about what they expect in the current situation. the actions of the international community directed at ending the war and resolving the situation or insufficient. considering all this,
6:05 pm
the authorities of the republic of arch soft accepted proposal of a ceasefire made by the command of the russian peacekeeping mission. so essential the statements. it's clear to understand what concerns of both sides have to ensure that these concerns are heard. and that there's a roadmap to ensure that there's a long lasting peace rush, a brokered a deal in 2020 let's not forget and essentially use the same peacekeeping force that is in that region today to ensure that the 2 sides get together and meet to discuss these concerns and that meeting will take place on thursday. they will assess essentially discuss most of what they deemed to be important. as i mean, johnny presented did also mention in a public address to the nation. that there are some fundamental steps that need to be taken. the fact that to this operation ended so quickly did come as a surprise because present it to them all. the of says that if the armenian, the ethnic armenians within the region did not retreat, unclear the area that this operation would have continued for as long as possible. so one of the most fundamental things is for the epic,
6:06 pm
armenians to lay down their weapons and ensure that whatever happens from here for, from here on, is done. so with the coordinate coordination of the russian keep facing force or yvonne has accused us about john's military of opening fire on a 1000000 troops in the countries east. less than 12 hours after they're going to car box. these 5 came and so forth. have a q has denied the allegations and natalie of the medium, 5 minutes to nicole, pushing young said he, the learned about the sci fi it from social media is definitely it did not take parts and it solves which led to the agreements on the going to cut it back, but it just supports its provisions. but not everyone in media is happy with passion young's position as all these room. acosta reports from your, as we are on the republic square here in the capital of our media in a year and long where protests are taking place for the 2nd day in a row. and if you a few moments earlier, the crowd here storm the, the government building, once again,
6:07 pm
it was reminiscent of the events that were happening on tuesday evening and quite a few people were injured. some police man were injured as well. and i found myself in the midst of this conundrum as well. so let's take a look at what was happening. fiber single free, full initially. but the situation had exploded in just a few seconds. processors began to roll rocks and the bottles add the police and people began to say or make this, the government's building the as we continue for about 5 to 10 minutes. right now there's a, there are additional units here for testing the building. the police are trying to push the people back, but so they all relentless, more people are trying to make sure the change is very,
6:08 pm
very explosive out here. it was indeed a very intense situation a few moments ago, but now everything is really call them. now, following nevada, a few people were detained. a couple of police band needed to receive medical help . they're now in the ambulances. but the injuries, as i understand, are not very serious. have take a look at these police. they have cords involved and government building. now there are 3 lines of police and people try to storm right through them. and of course they obviously they did not succeed. and then to repeat myself, now it looks that relatively come take a look at this square root puppy square in that you get him on. if it's so full to capacity, you can see well up to 75000 people. now about an hour ago it was near to full, but at this moment i can see that most of the people have already left the square of according to my estimations, a half or maybe even 3 quarters of the crowd have left out the most diehard
6:09 pm
supporters right over there, and this is exactly what was happening on tuesday as well. they continued storming the government building, but so once again, it's relatively quiet to add the moments. and of course everyone is hoping that's of light and so will and not start off again. and people will be able to go about their business. now, one result of this process has already been announced here on this stage that was the set off, and is the fact that the armenian opposition. and now, as the creation of the national can be designed to remove prime minister nicole pushing down from power solely after the si, fi, it was broken, the russian and armine leaders spoke on the phone and present. present, welcome to trees, which was broken with most goes help. the also said the roof is peacekeeping. mission is working closely with all sides,
6:10 pm
trying to de escalate sanctions and keeping civilians out of harm's way. i will inform you about this view of the as a by janet care, back and as a bridge and meetings. settlement r. peacekeepers are working very actively with all parties involved for the conflict. do never seem to protect the peaceful population. more than 2000 civilians have already been accommodated at our main base. more than half of them children. we are in very close contact with all parties to conflict with the for the some the one step by the kid. and by cool, i hope that we will be able to achieve the escalation and a peaceful resolution of this problem is undergoing a car buckles are to say at least 200 people were killed, the more than 400 injured as a result of the as a by johnny military operation as present present, pointed out during the 24 hour conflicts, or some peacekeepers in the area helped to evacuate more than 2000 civilians including children. all of them have been provided with medical treatment supplies
6:11 pm
and temporary shelter. the footage of problems the front of kids at board showed the sides fitting up with people trying to leave the area that displaced the residence reports. and they came from all over the region and are going to come back was previously disputed by media and as a by john, for decades after the collapse of the soviet union. the area many inhabited by ethnic armenians proclaimed independence, which was not recognized by but 2 millions made territorial gains of to winning a war with us advise on in the early 19 ninety's boats in 2020 as a by john launched a minutes you operation and managed to regain much of the ground that mean you probably minister nicole pushing and basically i mentioned that you have on has no claims to go on a car box which is recognized as now as positive as advise you on this like what's on ritual. you see these 86000 square meters, including the going and got it back, but it should be measured. our position is that the question of rights and security are for me. and so, you know, go on and cut about must be discussed between but who asked about
6:12 pm
a care list on patient mr. pushing on to a straight those to come into median government recognized arts on his part of a 0 by john post on the i sort of the go there. meaning government position is old . i mean, government recognizes as anybody, jones territorial integrity when talking about she, yes, i sent him. what albany is? i have said i have clarified. i find it difficult to give a more specific answer. but listen, peacekeepers were deployed to now going to car box after the before in 2020. yeah. but it has now cues to must go. not doing enough to maintain stability to come is denied this well calling the situation in the region and send them out to us by john a mind. thank you appeared here, we do not accept reproaches against us, especially after the official decision of the union side to recognize turner by his part to preserve by john the euro. we are now talking about those are by just actions on each territory. despite the accusations, we can send it to work with their mean insight. let's be also very honest about the
6:13 pm
situation in armenia in politics, one should not only be careful in picking, it's an image, but also offense. and in the past 5 years, uh, punch in your own government has on target and i is not the only registrar about also it on in the region. the goal of questionnaire and government from the beginning was to give up not going to cut up off to as a bitch on to alienate your on and the restaurant from the region and to keep out the russian presence from the region. so accordingly we see the consequences of this. so for the policy approach of shifting the strategic relations of uh, you have on toward the west of for the past 10 years to 20 years, every armenian government was involved in the negotiations between as a bit john and armenia to the mediation of restaurant or the western powers here, this government abandoned the armenians. i've got out of this uh, this government doesn't want for the, i mean, and so i've kind of a to be a to come and live, you know, i mean, i'd be close to our maintenance. i've got
6:14 pm
a probably a 120000 r face. now we 2 options one to stay and live in, in their homes under the positive jurisdiction or tool. they wouldn't move and displace from their homes and from their territories to armenia. but does question . yeah. and want them to come to armenia. no, because they do this 120000 people the know that pushing and abandon them. so if the government, the united, so in the event is not ready to defend the armenians in hot sauce, they should only blame themselves instead of blaming regional powers and international powers. you have to be, it's, the government must take responsibility and defend its own people. and not expect most or to hold on or any other power to come forward and had of course, as always, will be keeping you updated on the developing situation in a going to cut it back on a and also in our web sites, all the dot com you can always find more in depth coverage on the drums and moving onto the news. now,
6:15 pm
a violation of basic norms on principles repeatedly demonstrated by western countries, increases the risks of the global conflicts. well, that's at least is according to the russian form. and assistive good level to adjust the un security council on ukraine. so then you post our country and you called midway. unfortunately, since the end of the cold war and the collective west led by the united states as arbitrarily given itself the rank of master of the faith of all mankind and driven by an exception that wasn't complex, has increasingly ignored the legacy of the founding fathers. today the west refers to basic norms and principles, selectively case by case soley, according to its own selfish geo political use, this inevitably leads to the undermining of global stability, exacerbating existing tensions and igniting new ones. the risks of global conflict
6:16 pm
are growing. well, all eyes were on the russian foreign minister survey lab, rob, who gave remarks laying out the roots of the conflict in ukraine and exposing the facts that western media refuses to acknowledge. here some of the remarks of gay before the council laying out the truth of the situation. she wouldn't have anybody gonna show up on you. and today we here only slow goodness in the rhetoric of our opponents invasion, aggression annexation, but not a word developed the root cause of the problems about how for many years they supported the neo nazi regime in kia a substantive conversations based on facts and respect for all the requirements of the un charter is being avoided by the west. apparently it has no arguments for an honest dialogue. there was a strong impression that western representatives are afraid of professional discussions that would expose them as demagogues. today, when we discussed effective multilateralism,
6:17 pm
we should not forget the numerous factors of the west is consistent rejection of any form of equal cooperation that you'll set for rails assertion that europe is a flowering gardens and surrounded by jungle. is your neo colonial syndrome. despising sovereign equality of states and the task of strengthening the principles of the un charter through effective multilateralism. now prior to lab rob speaking, we did see the un security council roll out the red carpet for the ukrainian leader vladimir zalinski, and they made a big point to highlighting him. and in doing so, they violated the rules and procedures of the un security council. going against the standard manner in which these operations and events are carried out in order to allow the ukrainian leader to grandstand before the world and make is case, well, prior to zalinski is speaking,
6:18 pm
the russian ambassador and eventually got up and had an opportunity to call out the presidency of the security council and the particular country that is acting as the president this month, for how on professional and in violation of standard procedure, their activities have been. this is just literally to move up soon as you would like to warn you that if you have the have a thereby just to find your decision, they'll band in presidency will be tarnished by the blocking precedence of while a team they establish practice within the security council, in favor of one delegation, which has repeatedly shown that supported by the console. so that's the numbers. it is not subject to any law and is allowed all the trying to turn this into stage for a stand up show of one representative. it is obvious to everyone, at least to many that today's meeting is nothing more than a performance. and the band zeroes remarks indicated what has been acknowledged and what was later reiterated in the remarks by lab raw,
6:19 pm
that the norms and rules of international relations seemed to have been thrown out . and that the united states is making it all out effort to isolate russia. politically and economically, however, as the speeches before the un general assembly that have proceeded have in decayed and this effort is failing, the bricks is rising as an alternative trade poll. and despite the fact that many countries around the world would like to maintain a relationship with russia and with other countries, the united states seems to dislike the wheels of history are moving forwards. and at this point, the united states continues to abuse international institutions in the hope of furthering its aim of isolating russia and other countries. but their operations don't seem to be successful. you couldn't, you president phillip, the mid southern sky has addressed the un general assembly and security council, and he's also due to meet with american lawmakers in washington a bit later this week. that's coming to the us house because kevin mccarthy demanded accountability on the countries must have
6:20 pm
a packages to you. clean zalinski elected the congress to see our president. so i think at the clinic i have questions for where is the accountability on the money we already split? what is the plan for victory? i think that's what the american public wants to know. i want to count ability for whatever the hard working tax their spend their money on, and one on. and i want to plan for victory. and then the republican lawmakers, byron donald's criticized upcoming meetings with the ukranian president saying that there's no money for him on capital hill. the y itself has asked congress to touch supplemental funding for ukraine to a continuing resolution. they would fund the us government as a public. and so i propose a bill which excludes funding for kids, but they faced opposition from the democratic party understanding the judge elite a took shiver because they both an insult to ukraine and a gift to russia. with us is already sense almost $45000000000.00 worth of mitch a to you trade since the outbreak of last year's war. but advocacy a little make is in the wide so i will say that's not enough. i don't want to send
6:21 pm
more, don't listen or don't use us as the republicans are making a lot of noise now. but in the end, they would like to buy the book. you'll be aware that there's that, that there's a lot, a lot of play acting, goes on in washington. the way the american political system works is there's, there's a great deal of room for pastoring playing around engaging and all kinds of missed just putting on big shows on capitol hill, etc. so the republicans want to embarrass by and they want to, they want to, uh, you know, raise a fuss over this war, which is not going very well from a us point of view. and they, and they very much once a week in the white house. so that donald trump will be victorious. i in 2024. so they're playing this game. they're trying to harass biden, to raise all kinds of objections. uh, engage in a showdown over the budget,
6:22 pm
etc. but i think the republicans will support age of the ukraine. but ultimately, they'll make a lot of noise. they'll ask a lot of questions, criticize the body administration, but in the and i think they will approve the money because they are terrified of being made out to be uh, you know, week and uh, and it piecing and uh, and friendly to russia. so i think i'll eventually fall into line, but not before making a lot of noise. first on the front of the story were across today, an american tonnes, dentist, spokes person for you. claims manager has been suspended on his under investigation by key if that's of the sarah austin. true though, called for the hunting down freshman journalist. all the statements of surgeons ashton, through you in recent basement, it approved by the command of the 2 df or the command of the a few when conducting military reparations against the aggressor, the defense forces. so if you print strictly, observe the norms of international humanitarian low,
6:23 pm
the come out of the to df will conduct an official investigation into the circumstances of the statements. appropriate decisions would be taken surgeon, sarah ashton, true, you will be suspended immediately pending the investigation. last week, ashton trailer posted a video, the spots oprah on social media assume use. this said she was calling for the killing of russian just next week. the teeth of the russian devils will nash ever harder. and the rabbit and mouthful foam and uncontrollable frenzy as the world will see, a favorite kremlin propagandist pay for their crimes. and this pop of prudence is only the 1st rush's war. criminal propagandist will all be hunted down. well sir ashton too below is a full american journalist who came to create as a volunteer and was eventually appointed as the spokes person of the country's territory. the defense forces, gibbs says he's been suspended for making an approved comments which fell out of line with the norms of international law. well, you couldn't in minutes,
6:24 pm
you don't specify which comments you got to go through any trouble. i sent you a head cold for the hunting down of russian jew unless i'm bringing them to justice . should also posted a list with the names of foreigners who had gone through don't boss. we spoke with joe oldman, host of the conservative daily podcast. besides the scandal slipped under the radar in the west. i don't think it got picked up by the main stream media right away. it got picked up by the alternate media. i know i did a mess. i did a story on, on the 15th, 2 days after the posting, but i think the, the, the thing that the brought the news media to the attention of having to talk about it was that it got widespread spread like wildfire that here is this mentally ill individual, this, this american that has counted working with the fbi, i am working with government apparatuses in the united states now is the spokes person for ukraine. and now calling for the death of, of journalists which, which is a violation of international law. not, not that the united states and or ukraine is gonna follow anything related to
6:25 pm
international law, but it just, uh, i think that's what put it in the spotlight now. everyone's talking about it and, and now they had to do something because it was a, it was a blatant disregard for, for, for, was calling for the death of journalists, frankly, is just a warrant. and finally, the international court of justice is holding a public hearing on a ukrainian legal case against russia over some of the 2 operation must go, says the case to be scrapped and has defended the minutes. reparation as a measure to prevents what's the cause of genocide in the don't boss. but the key of has this piece of the claim and is demanding will reparations. from moscow, we discuss this with vs deputy. you and boy. maria is about it was for the sauce all these hearings were ready for the match. so the be expected that so he would include the police aside, the key. we all use those hearings in order to propagate. let's go narratives
6:26 pm
and they are holding. doing so they're using the platform all day. i subsea into good for a certain story is regarding of course, uh the quote will come down to the show. me tried to say it was bought by russia. they continued to try and save as the incident was somehow computed from russia. they continue with the oldest stories, even constantino's criminal style in china, which is older and you, well, no, that's uh, even according to us, compressed uh, was so wonderful to print a great feature. all these, all these proceedings is that your brain has involved with a number of listing countries to participate in these proceedings as 3rd party is an today actually was the days around a menu around have made statements before the courts. this is the president of move, which has never happened before in the history. all the courts rush, i was a guess,
6:27 pm
the factual roots thing. that's a really is the pressure on the courts. it's not and normal procedure you mccain here to challenge the jurisdiction of and costs over the skis or we don't see any bases for any legal basis for the to was dixon in the sports. because your brain a lot of using russia all genocide, actually you graham is trying to stay and that's your restaurant. you the king special leanings front ration and the also we can find the dpr um that you are on the basis of the genocide convention. and this is our stuff for the convention does not regulate such method us as a user for us or any kind of issue as it related to that. we've given you some of the states. it is well known that those issues are regulated by the united nations child. the general international law issues of self defense are involved and the
6:28 pm
issues of self determination. but the genocide convention has nothing to do with these issues. this is quite clear and there's a stablished not only in the tax, but we're going to buy somebody also in the decisions for you. this is gonna solve this cost. so we came here to the single position before the costs, and we also told me not to proceed to the the case about taking the decision at the stage and dismiss the proceedings brought by imprint. well, those are the main stories for this solid. do you head over to all websites uh. com or our social media pages for mall be discussed, and thank you very much, a vehicle in the
6:30 pm
the hello and welcome to cross talk. hall things are considered on peter level as kids counter offensive grinds to a halt. nato says the west must prepare for a long war nato's goal. according to woodside smelt and birds is russia's military defeat. this is a policy choice, introduce ukraine, paying the price for such a craving decision. the cross talking nato and to crane. i'm joined by my guess, daniel mcadams, in lake jackson. he is executive director of the wrong paul institute for peace and prosperity in washington. we have them are we own, he is a political scientist, author and radio talk show host. and in brunswick we have bruce gag. now. he is the coordinator of the global network against weapons and nuclear power in space, right? jumping cross top roles and the fact that means you can jump any time you want. and
