this is the plaintiff. the protesters in your van surround the main government building as they rally against the prime ministers to render of newborn a per box of locals, accusing the leader of treason, meant safety concerns over people living in the region. i know many people there who want to leave and can not implement that, right. they are staying there at the cost of their own, their relatives and their children's lives. the current discoloration and the boy in the car both occurred the time when our menu was conducting joint exercises with the united states on its territory presses deputy envoy to the un says the armenian prime minister's decision making on the crisis may have been influenced by western powers, the hungry accuse is the west of double standards for seeking peace to us between

armenia and as are by john and walter poole, long in the conflict, a new crane. we discussed the topic with our panel of gas. well, we saw it in ukraine because moscow worked with target scanning back and advise you on we're looking to the series for oil and, and other energy coming in from the caspian sea. so of the drums, just pre on flight lines and very interesting. some deals thread that you called what support and what the west thinks is not my problem or wanda is president dismissed his criticism for his plans to run for a 4th term. same lawanda will control its own domestic affairs, the life from the russian capital. this is our t international. i'm rachel ruble. over 80 people have been arrested so foreign

protest and armine, marked by the siege of the main government building in near the end to end the nearby streets. here's our t corresponded roman customer of what the latest on the rally again, against the government's recognition of the garner car box as part of as or by john . we are right now in the republic square, which was at the, at the center of everything that's been going on on the last 4 days. at the moment the older roles leading up to the republic square had been blocked off by the protesters. if you can take a look out here, there are police in the high numbers and there preventing the crowd from blocking one of the rolls. now there are so little 6 rows around me leading up to the square, and the police have managed to the block. just one of them. the crowd had dispersed to jason sweets, according to the opposition. they said that they need to block all of the speed fit into your body in order to make their voices heard. of course of what they're trying to do is to remove a prime minister. nicole pushing out of rome, power,

steel position and actually forms a complete as we move in 5 minutes to the goal. bush, not himself said that he refuses to do so. now, earlier in the day, earlier this morning, there was anything on the cabinet ministers. this is the building where it was held, the processors tried to prevent the prime minister from leading, however, use a side entrance and actually left. now the police are also in high numbers defending the building itself. now there are no, if we arrive year at the moment, but they all ready for anything. all of the year is in the back. now the opposition said that's a very calling on people to block the roles and they're calling on, on all the processors to join up here on the republic square at 6 pm, a local site. and now this was a echo from the opposition all throughout these 4 days. and of course some violence

ensued. so when people got here usually starts about 8 or 9 pm parents, of course, the 4 days that's fast for not without casualties as both the processes and the police have received. the various degrees of injuries will be here on the public square covering the events and bringing the latest estimate is available ethnic armenians make up. most of the population of non garner car box, which for decades was disputed between us or by john and armenia following a spike and violence in the region. it now belongs to bach, who under the cease fire agreement reached on wednesday. however, the reunification process is yet to be organized as the 1st talks between the girl car bach and as or by johnny representatives. wrapped up on thursday with no concrete deal signed you as a by johnny side handed over its plan, and parties have agreed it to hold another meeting soon. a one issue of concern for armenians as the opening of the latin card or our road connecting armenia and the

corner car. buck and still partially blocked by us or by john. however, push in in it says the relocation of local residents to armenia is not the main priority for your van, which and says that local authorities should insure inhabitants can continue to live in their homes without fear. but soon, the republic of armenia was prepared to accept around 40000 families, but we don't want to talk about it. why. i want to be very honest and clear because we think the domain names in the going, the camera back should live in the homes of homeland and be since and secure condition symbolism. so today my assessment is that there is no direct, right to move, going no camera back, civilian population, get the most people protesting, and the armenian capital affairs are compatriots won't be able to flee in a garner car back end. it could be in danger. you can lend me 500. well if i'm here with one demand chunk, it's open the 2 minutes and quarter doing one. i'm so the hour come back to you.

it's can safely lever it's. uh, if i know many people there who wants to leave it and they cannot implement, that's right. where they are staying there at the cost of their own. their relatives and their children is like senior. if i'm not worried about these, we're not talks about forced meetings. for people who don't have any choices or alternative, and i don't know how knowing they would be able to maintain their position or didn't t. is there any possibility for a people under blockade to keep their dignity an event, to try to suggest something auto on them? during a un security council meeting, the russian deputy ambassador to the un, so the outcome of the new guard no car box was pre determined, given the armenian prime minister statements on the regions of status. 2 european counterparts also adding the crisis coincided with the countries of joint exercises with the us. the framework for the current barometer is something that gordon a car box settlement was said by the recognition, by official year of on in october 2022 in may, 2023 at summit's,

under the auspices of the european union. often to go in a car or bulk as a part of the territory opposite. everybody's on the same time in statements following the results of these you summits, which you have on also assigned the topics of the need to properly ensure the rights and security of the armenian population of cardboard was unfortunately simply, i'm it said, let us know that the current discoloration in the going a car about occur the time when our menu was conducting joint exercises with the united states on its territory. as or by john's foreign minister has brief to the un security council on boxes. the successes during its operation and they're going to car box r t correspondent that caleb mountain has more now back who was represented by its foreign minister. and he showed photographs of military presence on azerbaijani territory and talked about the over 2000 land lines as well. here's what he said

before, the council, the armed forces of his everybody's young lawyer, local gone, took the measures for the son of these illegal on formations. and can utilize the immune and threats both to safety and security of otherwise, any civilian and military personnel. the content that i'm interested is limited in proportion to the threat posed to so we're going to into to integrity officer by john as well as safety and well being before with citizens. now the representative of our media focused on these humanitarian plight and civilians were caught up in the conflicts. here's what we heard before. the council, when hearing from the representative of armenia was then 10000 persons became, became forcibly displeased, including women and children and elderly, who stay in the alternator without food. another means for subsistence. thousands of families have be separated. people are still starving due to the cvt shortages of foods imposed by the ongoing 10 months located by the russian deputy ambassador

dmitri poll janski's spoke about the recent death of russian peacekeeping forces that were in the country. and besides that, any attempts to blame those peacekeeping force is where the conflict and the problems. there is completely unacceptable. cecilia, new jersey, fortunately, russian peacekeepers have once again taking a blow while carrying out their duties. some of them were killed. dr. coming under fire with taking note of the readiness of the odds are by johnny side to conduct an immediate investigation into this tragedy. and bring those responsible to justice. despite the difficult situation, the russian peacekeeping contingent continues to fulfill its assign tasks and do everything possible to protect civilians. now many other council members spoke before or the media and a common same was protecting civilians and humanitarian concerns about those who might get caught up in the fighting. furthermore, there was also an emphasis on respecting the territorial integrity of as or by john,

which is a un member state. they will mauppin artsy new york. meanwhile, the hon gary on foreign ministry has highlighted the strikingly different western narrative is on the complex and the garner carbone can ukraine, brussels america, and the whole international community demand a ceasefire and negotiations on the clashes in the gore know care a back only hungry demands the same regarding the russian ukraine war. how is that going? let there be peace in ukraine to western officials took the diplomatic roots in the new car, no car by complex calling for peace talks and the cease fire. another stark difference and the 2 approaches is the harshest sanctions immediately imposed on moscow. while e officials are only now considering the possibility of sanctions, onbox us, assistant secretary of defense, mera thailand has even done further or confirming the us has turned refrain into

a laboratory from military innovation like washington's previous wars and a rock and the scanner stem cell. this, when our forces were in iraq and i've gotten assign just how much innovation was happening because they weren't able to take certain things, put them on, on the battlefield and figure out how to make certain shifts and then apply them. and that, that kind of cycle is, is so critical. so obviously ukraine is a laboratory of learning for military innovation to earlier. my colleague nicky aaron spoke to a panel of guess who said the west has interest in both armenia and as or by john, which include the energy sector. and that is why they were in favor of peace talks between the countries. we saw it in ukraine because moscow was the target in the case of um, in the case of uh, armenia and azerbaijan, at least from the united states point of view. and i'm, i'm sure the you, the west is very friendly with, with both countries of us has interest with our media. after all, we have a huge,

this for you here in, in the united states of armenians and, and, and, and in baku and azerbaijan, we're looking to, uh, to the series for oil and, and other energy coming in from the caspian seas. so this is a dilemma, so there's going to be talk of a peaceful, a calls for a peaceful talk a and, and that. but you can be sure that the us, once the war and its way into our media, this is a potential powder keg that will just coincide with the regional tensions that we're now seeing as a result in ukraine. western officially, it was a very vocal about pace talks between on media and as the by john. well, only a few officials quote for negotiations between moscow and keir. why is that? what do i leave here now? another by john is that there is this travis gas piano pipeline, which is the main factor for, for the movements. and i saw

a very close and traded very so peace, the gate of geo political events going on when these auditory separation started the trans caspian pipeline. using the very interest things to deal strategy, call hot spots because it's fave or all the main players, including european union. and that's also so is that what i see? the main factor? why? the why the waste was we in the sink, the feasible solutions, but they were not calling the shots here. the west at this moment, could not face a 2nd front of the facilities in the east, and they came out to a very strong b for a cease fire for peace and all that. now if we did not have the ukrainian crisis, i very much doubt that they that they would have come out in such a strong way for

a piece as i did as, as they didn't know they could not afford at this moment to have a 2nd front on, on the east that's, that's, that is what i think the western opinions are not my problem. that's the answer. rwanda's incumbent president gave to a french magazine when asked to comment on how the west might respond to his decision to run for a 4th term. next year, i'm sorry for the last, but what the west thinks is not my problem. people are supposed to be independent and should be allowed to organize themselves as they wish. i am happy with the confidence that the one does have shown in me. i will always sell them as much when i can. yes, i am indeed a candidate constitutional amendments allow, could dominate to run for 2 more terms of 5 years, age potentially staying in power until 2034,

to go. my husband that considered the countries the fact the leader since the end of the civil war in 1994 winning a free presidential election since then with overwhelming support. meanwhile, and a recent report, the us based watched on freedom house criticize rolanda, is government policy, noting that the president is not freely elected. the government policies largely said and implemented by the executive branch with the security and intelligent services playing a ball for roll and the president is not freely elected. they're wanting patrick from party, has ruled one without interruption, since 1994 banning and pressing any opposition group. this would bound to serious challenge to its leadership. we discussed the 2024 rolanda elections with africa analyst, albert without some boar. he says people are happy under the konami government and are concerned with what the west thinks election is in the country. it is routine,

the people of the country. so whatever, even people of other kind of mars or jupiter, think about what's happening on the, on this plan it's, i mean it's, it's ridiculous. i mean, yeah, because if you say what the west thinks that by that inc price that we are suppose to, to, to, to report to the west. i mean what, what is and being independent to the run that was never come to me by the way. it's one of those 2 countries on the, on the continent, maybe with a joke and brandy that we would never economy. so why would we be economy today? what ever we see progress in, in, in everything, whether it's infrastructure education system, uh, was creation. everything. people are very much aware that its thoughts are really due to the new 3. what is 1st term?

so for us to me, so after one term, a 2nd term the we only see progress and we sleep at night. we have secure it is a good news for why that, that for the means for while i run that fee is good, that he didn't see a buy. i'm gone because it would, it would definitely uh, something a time that people would feed and not very comfortable because they have seen the difference. the un peacekeepers must leave the country as soon as possible. those are the words of the president of the democratic republic of congo at the un general assembly. he ordered his government to overseas our withdrawal, which is to take place by the end of this year as he lives on the proving. it is deplorable that the peacekeeping nation deployed in one form or another for 25 years. and the democratic republic of congo has failed to cope with the rebellions and conflicts which are tearing apart the democratic republic of congo and the

great lakes region or to protect your civilian population. next to the ration of the withdrawal of the new school is becoming an imperative necessity. the east entering between the new school and our fellow citizens affiliated 24 years of operations in the d i. c. the u and peacekeeping mission has been formally off by the president to leave the country, the official saying that's municipal to not sense just not stay in the just seeing different arguments and save off the progress of the door as long as you and that's when it comes to these documents of figures, offer you any involvement and city presidential elections must now see full ownership of the peace and civilization process of the phone countries, which is exactly what the president has been saying when you call these know codes . i've also been calling for the departure. i'll see you in force over it's the seeds failure to participate in some of the eastern d. i. c, a citizen saying that instead of seizing changes with civilians,

the peacekeepers have only explained the situation to my personal. assume i can, they should leave immediately. so that way you'll have peace and be in a better position to work independently. mano, scope as an enemy to us, for now we don't have any other alternative. and we're just insisting that the un should force its team out over our land in april that they must go, they must completely go. people don't have to put sol with manasseh, and that is why everyone is saying they must leave the country. the peacekeepers have sought to protesters and as the on on civilians moving schools did. this has only boasted the negative facility. many people had already had to offer you in mission machinery, so violent to protest as it gave submission wilcox and the eastern, just the last year with $36.00 people with children in classes, including the peacekeepers. also the loose and backlash, the gain. so you, in peacekeepers is also triggered by the resurgence of the n 23 examples in the eastern d r. c. even though that the seas not

a form of phrase calling me perceptions offered support for neighboring one that i still answer. for instance, i'm in the dsp as the eastern regions back to the defensive, by the entry to city available for the congo. a choose to $1.00 backing the one that not these accommodations at that time. and then french, president and money on a crunch. last is cool, blaming the d. c for the securities in the country is just $9094.00 and it's not francis fault. i'm sorry to say it's incised blunt terms. you have not been able to restore the solar anti neither military, no security, nor administrative of your country. this is also a reality. we must not look for culprits outside this affair. okay, understood, that's a question. to a large extent, pointed a finger from the root cause of all the problems they've been going through to you and has continued to reject suggestions that it's peacekeeping mission that has failed to protect civilians into the see. finding that to the force is doing is off most base and everything possible to fulfill the mandate in

a robust men. but if we need it 25 years, the d. c kept to us mandates off emissions of many say it's failing to do his job. the 3 days that rally organized by supporters of pakistan's main opposition party is underway and the pakistani city of la floor. after starting on thursday. the protesters are demanding a review of the countries agreement with the international monetary fund. also calling for a ton and electricity charges and fuel prices. we got more details from the ground . the head of the main guide, even due to high inflation, people in pakistan are facing a difficult situation these days. in this perspective, yamato swami has announced country wide rallies and sit in protests today. it is in front of a governor house in low, or you can see a large number of protesters in the background there, chatting slogans and demanding a relief in the current inflation. people here say that previous and current governments following the strict conditions imposed by the i m f,

have raised prices on fuel and electricity, which has a large impact on the prices of other items. so the poor cannot survive jamal l. a slimy leaders say that if the government doesn't review the prices, these protests will spread, and a final call will be made to the capital slum abad. well, i didn't know that out at the time has come now these people will rice and then the officers residences and vehicles. you have made the lives miserable people can breed and you almost slaughter him down with your dagger. how can they leave with this inflation? the motor motor cars, the leak last of this country, has not left anything to eat for the poor. they have sold out like countries, water, oil, carpet, and gold, sold everything to the foreign companies and gone abroad. they have taken all the assets with the con, the 500 leak families of the country have controls 80 to 90 percent of our resources. we need accountability of these 500 families. the money must be spent on

pool people. they during has a ques, the us of hacking the servers of chinese national tech giant hallway and conducting cyber attacks against the country for more than a decade. in 2009, the office of tailored access operations started to infiltrate, serve as a qual, weighs headquarters, and continued conducting such surveillance operations. the u. s. had obtained control of a tens of thousands of devices and stolen the suspenseful amount of high value data . the aging, also accused of washington, of having influential tech companies and so, so called back door software applications, used to steal vital data from china, russia, and other countries. when this comes, almost a decade after edward snowden revelations about us cyber espionage aging has pointed the finger at the us national security agency saying at the found the american spyware was used in a cyber attack on

a chinese university last year. washington has not yet responded to these allegations. we spoke to independent political analysts, john paying, who says the cyber attack was carried out by the us as part of a hybrid war, confirming students revelations about the attitude toward laws and the country. the visa tags are part of a, a hi brittany rule that the lawless war state is waging exactly that kind of state but snow didn't. edward snowden, wanda's west, was coming to be in the united states. so it's, it's, it's part of that, that approach, not just the china, not just the russia, but defend or full anyone that standing there path. so they involve a tax on cultural, political, and information space on the economy on energy, food, public health. so the best defense against this has to be systemic and echo system wide. but this has been provided all spurred by dividing administration,

which forced the chinese information technology to, to begin to the couple from us technology and u. s. company which turned out to be literal victors willingly on not of the us security state. the u. s. has established a new advisory group and the homeland security department made up of at top experts to help tackle foreign and domestic threats. some of the groups members have chosen by the, by the administrator and are those links to white washing the 100 by then case, and disseminating this information about russia. archie is rachel blevins, has more on the story. the united states department of homeland security is creating its own homeland intelligence experts group when it comes to the more than their doesn't special individuals who were chosen. we 3 stand out for the recent work trying to discredit the inter ms hunter binding laptop story. the so called

spice of light form a ca, direct to john brennan form and national intelligence director. james clapper, and former c. a senior operations officer pulled, colby will sub on the department of homeland security. he's recently announced homeland intelligence experts, group panel. so what else do we know about these 3 spots who were chosen as experts by homeland security, other than the fact that they are willing to use their title to lie to the public? well, let's start with john brennan, he became the director of the c. i a, under the obama administration in 2013, he was heavily involved in us policy and ukraine, making a trip to key a in 2014, to establish intelligent sharing. in the aftermath of the us back crew brenet went on to be at the center of russia gate so much so that when his hand written notes from the meeting with obama had of the 2016 election were later declassified, it was revealed that he breached the president on hillary clinton's plan to ty

donald trump, to russia as a means of distracting the public from the former secretary of state's e mail scandal. an exchange discussing the us presidential candidates hillary clinton's approval of a plan concerning us presidential candidates. donald trump and russian hackers hamper and us selections as a means of distracting the public from here use of a private email server. john brennan now spends his days working as a national security analyst for nbc news and m s and b c. then there's james copper, he was confirmed this director of national intelligence and 2010 also under the obama administration. clapper was also at the center of russia gate. and in 2017, he tried to compare it to the watergate scandal that brought down the nixon administration. i lived through once a gate. i wasn't active duty then in the air force. i was a young officer. it was a scary time. if you compare the 2 was a gate pails really my view compared to what we're confronting now. however,

special council robert molar went on to declare that there was no proof of collusion between trump and russia in 2019 clapper was also mentioned in the 2018 house intelligence committee report, which suggested that he which information from equipment funded still thought the a to cnn, while an office, notably james copper, then went onto work as a national security analyst for cnn. then there's paul colby, he's largely kept a low profile compared to his peers, but his 25 year career with the c. i a included work in russia. and when he does speak out, it's often about whether he seizes the inner workings of russia. however, his predictions are always the most accurate take. for example, this one published on february 23rd 2022. there is no threats from nato against russia. ukraine certainly poses no threat if a full scale war were to break out. and ukraine, i think, well,

there would be an initial patriotic surge to support troops in action once the true cost of that, in terms of casualties. and what it means for russia, for the next decades, could mean the beginning of the end for colton. so what can we expect from this group of homeland intelligence experts? well, the planets for them to meet at least 4 times a year to discuss a wide range of ongoing national security concerns that include terrorism and emerging technology. as for what power these experts will have over determining us policy that still remains to be seen. and homeland security has recently been busy finding threats to the us with a humorous, deep fake a i generated clip by archie, mocking western sanctions making it into washington's latest threat assessment report. the report states that russian agents have influence to begin using new artificial intelligence tack in their activities. first, a warning you may find the following images hilarious.

no, no, no. that's nonsense. we need some fresh ideas. betters stronger and effective. the i'm so tired news .
