In an emergency parliamentary session the president a new going or karabakh declared martial law as well as military mobilization from innovating. Most of all the people of nagornokarabakh want peace weve already see it the responsibility for any resumption of the war will rest with the government of azerbaijan today tomorrow and in the future Russias Foreign Ministry said the situation has sharply deteriorated and it had reports of an tin shelling from both sides the kremlin along with the e. U. And france a calling for an immediate ceasefire frequency of escalation even if they are controlled are suggesting we are really entering a very dangerous. Where it can definitely get out of control especially when new players regional players are being dragged into. The disputed sound of the 1991 collapse of the soviet union when i mean in cypriot ists sees the territory. 30000 died in fighting. In 1900 ceasefire was agreed but talks to resolve the dispute stools. Nearly 2 decades later tensions rose again in july with the worst fighting since 26 being the last year or so the armenian leader nicol question has been no longer want to negotiate according to the people like me had been trying to bring together between azerbaijan and armenia and he said theyre going to is always going to be part of armenia that has really saw very severe negative emotions in azerbaijan. Has repeatedly valid to recapture nickel and karabakh by force and i mean he has vowed to defend the territory well it is disputed which side moved on sunday morning its clear that both remain determined to claim nicol no karabakh as their own shallop ballasts aljazeera well lets talk to robin forester walker whos following the story from tbilisi in georgia any clarity and i know thats difficult and one of these situations on the clarity of what led to this and who started it. Im afraid the answer is no. In terms of clarity its so difficult when when there is as much an information war is as a military one going on on the ground take for example azerbaijan shutting down the internet in terms of access to social media claims and counterclaims both sides saying the other one started it this morning what we do know is that there had been. Claims of a military build up on the is very side by the armenians in the days running up to this. Bellicose rhetoric from the president at the u. N. General Assembly Last week and i think a lot of observers people who know the reason well have been looking at whats been going on saying that the International Community has had its eye off the ball its been clear that since july when we saw that peak in that outbreak of violence in july 17 dead. The situation had not gone away and those talks to the International Peace talks by the u. S. By france by russia have really needed to kick starting the him i mean its that they wanted to go back to the table but azerbaijan always saying its correspondent then was saying in that report that nagornokarabakh had to be returned to as a territory so he controls so this looks like the is aries wants a war over Nicola Karabakh but claiming all along that armenians are responsible its a mess in terms of understanding whos to blame but what we have on the ground now is increasing numbers of dead 10 military personnel i mean is confirmed on their side all they care about administration saying 10000000 dead and he is very saying 2 words 12 plus civilians as well who casualties today thats already reaching those figures that we saw back in july. Place over a number of days so its a serious escalation today ok thank you for that robin foresty walker following events from tbilisi. Just a bit of background for you both armenia and azerbaijan have been locked in this territorial dispute for decades which emerged out of the collapse of the soviet union that was when armenian separatists seized the territory about 30000 people died in that fighting in 9094 there was a ceasefire agreed but theyve been several instances of fighting since as robin was referring to april 26th game for example when about 110 people were killed in the most serious fighting in years and then that most recent flare up in july earlier we heard from a c. E. O. Who is the assistant to the president of john and the head of Foreign Policy department at the president ial administration he says as opposed is in gauged in quote full scale war and its aim is to recapture territory occupied by a media. And we have seen also this scale up before what happened along the way are mean you need to live into a whos out of the border of 2 countries but armenia cuba can see billions of azerbaijan another question on force of the ozone warning again and a deliberate manner of the persian civilians and my president is a United Nations you know. What they are concentrating the troops to prepare it and we did. It happen today so your scripts are improviser army news from to action and aggression and our civilians are becoming targets or mean our own forces and we are going to want to move in other words units on the i thought it is of my job and therefore i was in our forces to in wisconsin action some counter attacks to repel armenians provocations and 1st acts of aggression and these which are an import armenian to peace because of this whole negotiation process is also failing because of the deliberate and destructive aptitudes of armenia conflict we dont have enough real negotiation buts and you can buy or things which are unimportant here 1st is an interest you to consider or possible to civilians who are living in close proximity to one conflict is an intent to ensure the variation of jobs a quantum on our musical question last month also to yours so the Un Security Council resolutions demand immediate unconditional israel army and troops so quiet that it is a cause of which are so quite simple implemented by armenia and they continue to talk of the chances and also listen if you choose an idea peace they have a right to return back to the assortments because of armenians location to convert them back. What were going to hear from the other side now. Is the foreign minister of mania on skype from foreign minister thank you for your time you heard there quite cleary clearly the a series saying that they wont stop until they their words liberate this territory theyre saying full scale war do you consider yourself to be in a full scale war now. What we have been hearing is exactly the choice of who all at the expense of the Peace Process that great goal of the peace negotiations but as i got you on the massive attack. In a pretty mouth in the previous i managed across the entire perimeter into wealth ringback even where i had contact between a surgeon and a corner about this morning being approved or the interactions or is that what you are. Looking for that are not Similar Solutions and aggressive manner it would be military square been consistently insisting that harder than a corner. Is a security or weak and they have once again little we have to care about the security or. The people who are going to grow up in our own but the expense of their freedom their security against this aggression and their aggression it is our preplan are not just part of that war dont make maps it support terror we share that its military presence and which is showing its new natural aggressive unit that will support support aggressive approach. Which is very very so thats a thats the opposite principle which i suppose you know thats what we should as it was. Also an escalation which they say you start that they actually say you attack 1st at 6 am but ill before. We did i totally reject this absolute leading information which is a matter that because i was young we had no into a chain of doing anything which would bring to emasculate i mean it has been there if i am going to his position that they said who shouldnt bring the people using mace 330. 00 on the street on the basis of a compromise we wouldnt do anything that would be against our. Intentions toward us as im as im saying the whole point is about the seat. Clark competitor its very current very resolute to defend themselves i mean remains at their resolute jarrett or their security. To go back to my sorry to interrupt this kind of stop this aggression and come to their senses we come back to the peaceful protests sorry to interrupt your foreign minister but in my original question i asked you are you in a position to actually stop them if they say they are going to go to full scale war and liberate this territory what position is armenia in to defend now going to about who you found every single inch of their land and all their security and i mean you will be together until they stretch of course has been there are you here in the parlance of the other general government and the end of the regime the latest being as United NationsGeneral Assembly and brought this into practical implementation once again once again they would be a pharmacy you talked about negotiation about stepping back from the brink here how would you see that happening who would be the broker how would you step back from the brink here. There is an established form of the negotiations they seem to nationally recognized the full model which includes maybe always see a need to go chairmanship comprising russia the United States and france where in Constant Contact we are going to share creditors at all levels and were working towards the ways in which we can bring the whole situation back to normal to fully go through a process work to me to address whatever this shouldnt be confused with our we saw all in that were not proud about it you know i mean you have to defend ourselves in or were not good about it and you know me or the resolution has to be based on a compromise it maximalist position that has been calling out bottle all the theists has no no. Any room for. Negotiation in the negotiating process the Prime Minister or me and thats been consistently insisting that any physician should be acceptable to the people on the edge of the people that were going to write about and to the people are going to compromise basically not a solution where you dont need a dangerous theyre already declared well Just One Party that is totally richer than they were there has never reciprocated never reciprocated our coal for compromise solution but they have been operating for solution. And what we do we see now is the manifestation of this consistent with. The established mechanism which you talk about for discussions which is already in place can that bring in others weve got russia weve got iran weve got france all about a deescalation calling for deescalation immediately but youve also got turkey which squarely backs these areas and seem to be in more of a fight how much can the current mechanism deal with any further threat from any other player as well. A clarification doa seems means a group called chairmanship magnets is a cochairman ship of 3 countries comprising russia the United States and france but we need this negotiations if i say i do not use so you know determined to put the blame on arming it and im calling on as a budget to immediately accept the investigative machinations and the Risk Reduction machinations and also beijing i can use force if i about nations we have been insisting upon what so many of us and they have been rejecting it exactly to cover their intentions their better clothes and aggressive intentions and i dont have to engage in a blame game as theyre doing now if they want to be easy if they want the escalation they should have agreed and they can agree now on the mechanisms that we should strengthen the ceasefire and strengthen our. Production so this is our call again but this was totally rejected as a runner and this blame game that they are proposing that theyre trying to impose on us now to reject it theyre all responsible for what a dire situation that were having. And its knocking down is the foreign minister of a mania foreign minister we thank you very much for your time. Plenty more to come for you on this news on the table of how we will ask if the u. S.

Fronto of the news in a prisoner swap deal has been finalized between yemens government and the hutu rebels the u. N. Special envoy to yemen says almost 1100. 00 prisoners are being exchanged immediately Martin Griffiths calls it an important milestone with compromise on both sides the swap deal was 1st agreed 2 years ago but its repeatedly stalled and is only partially been implemented 1081. 00 individuals would and indeed will represent the largest relief. Operation during the history of the conflict in the peaceful negotiations can succeed and they will succeed in bringing relief to the yemeni people and Building Confidence for the Peace Process. Following developments for us on this one hashem Martin Griffiths is talking like this is a big breakthrough whats your take on it especially from the start of the welcome or just been in touch with her thiis and with the government officials government Officials Say well the announcement is something the implementation is Something Else therefore they say they are going to wait to see the agreement implemented for them to be able to say ok finally we have some sense of a progress the whole thing is told me that they are looking into a few details before finalizing the whole thing it seems that the biggest challenge in the coming day days would be narrowing the differences or building bridges between the government and putting in play into place the logistics for the transportation of all the detainee of the prisoners from the north to the south where the Government Forces are station and vice versa towards her the territory. It is a Development Though isnt it hashem i mean there obviously at the talks in switzerland the u. N. Talks theyre trying to solve some very longstanding issues a war thats gone on for years but Something Like this does it help. Well it will definitely try to get a debate about how to move forward same talks took place in 2018 in sweden when the when the United Nations on voice martin gryphus were who was hoping to start a genuine political process that would put into place demarkation zone in and her data and the fighting in ties convince all the parties to start broader political talks now that political reality in 2018 doesnt exist in a more because what happened in between is the other secessionists in the south have taken control of the south president is more marginalized more isolated than ever he controls only very few areas in the south from his exile in saudi arabia her things are in control of much of the northern part of yemen the country is facing further disintegration more than 80 percent of the population is humanitarian assistance including 12000000000 tilden and many people have lost hope the International Community will be able to solve the crisis in yemen were talking about a very somber political reality in the country.
