Longer has covert 19 and is not a transmission risk. Nigeria dissolves a Controversial Police squad accuse the brutality after days of angry protests and Turkish Cypriots go to the polls to select a president amid tensions over Gas Exploration in the Eastern Mediterranean. Hello a fragile cease fire between armenia and azerbaijan is under threat following attacks from both sides in the conflict over nagornokarabakh new fighting has killed at least 8 people and there is a search for survivors birdied beneath the rubble Officials Say the 2nd city of ganja was struck by missiles in the early hours of sunday morning military officials in a gorno karabakh have denied attacking the city saying they are observing the ceasefire meanwhile armenia is accusing as a riff or says of shelling the regions largest cities the panic hurts both sides accuse each other of violating the humanitarian ceasefire which came into force on saturday the deal allows them to Exchange Prisoners and recover bodies hundreds of people have been killed since fighting flared up 2 weeks ago so because of a glue isnt just a fear in azerbaijan she says the government is calling the ceasefire violation a crime. The top officials call that as a military a military crime and the International Community should respond this thats what they said and when i asked the other day how consulted with russia about this violation of the cease fire to the assistant of the president of mentally of. His assistants. He told me that they have already contacted and theyre waiting for to hear from the russian side as well the cease fire was mediated by russia actually it was expected to kick off properly but it didnt yesterday after the cease fire was in force just a couple of minutes later maybe 15 minutes later we heard from both sides that the cease fire was violated this side on the survey john sides along with again german get over it was also targeted by several missiles and they told us in the area both the officials and the civilians told us that it was targeted by 9 rockets last night but on the other side we are hearing that is the pernik air it was also under fire over the night so the both sides accuse each other for violating the cease fire however they dont stop attacking each other either Bernard Smith is in gores armenia or he says officials are evading any questions about violating the cease fire. The accusation about the shelling of ganja was port to being a go on a car dock president in a press conference earlier today and he didnt specifically answer the question books. He did say that if in the next one or 2 do days we do not feel as ery readiness to resolve these issues peacefully i will 1st apply to his area thora teased to International Authorities and armenian authorities to recognize the independence of the golan oconnor a box that is an extremely unlikely prospect it is recognised as a azerbaijani territory also today the armenians have released an updated list of the soldiers killed now 429 soldiers killed and when they released the list they released the names on the dates of birth and you see that the dates of birth of nearly all of them are between 2000 im warm to 2002 so a very young man being killed in these last 2 weeks does not release details of the numbers of his soldiers killed but you can be assured that there are casualties on the as ery side and ill be of a similar age and when you see these lists of casualties you perhaps get a greater appreciation of the enormous pressure the leaderships of both countries are under not to be seen to making concessions that will cost them to the other side tsar to news the spokesman for the International Committee of the red cross delegation in the armenian capital youre avan she says the terms of the ceasefire can only be accomplished if it serves the needs of both sides and can be maintained. Where are actually in regular discussions that the size of the nature of our involvement however far now the date for the operation to begin is the hounds of the size and the are International Committee of the right cross stands ready to facilitate. And support the sides in their obligation to manage terrible occasion to release that the detainees one had thought of the other to return the human remains that the fatherland can. Bury and often when for now however we have been hearing reports about shelling continued on both sides of the line of on top unfortunately which does not allow us. All in any kind of humanitarian medicare and operation the nature of our interaction weve started this is actually confidential sold bilaterally were discussing both our concerns and also the possibility is to. Move swiftly to the process actually however what we can confirm now is that the decisions of political decisions are in the hands of the sides not the i. C. R. C. Just over a week after the u. S. President announced his tested positive for a covert 19 donald trump has now told fox news that he no longer has the coronavirus in that same interview he said he believes hes now immune to it lets bring in chris and salumi joining us from new york so what more we learning about the president s health and his condition. Well hes suggesting that he is free of the corona virus that hes tested negative but thats not exactly what hes saying and that has a lot of people concerned what he did say is that hes not a transmission risk its safe for him to go back out on the campaign trail and to attend Public Events hes echoing wording that was used by his physician dr Sean Connelly in a statement on saturday that said that the president does meet c. D. C. Guidelines at the centers for Disease Control guidelines as to when it is safe to come out of isolation but again the president and his doctor have been carefully avoiding the word or the phrase tested negative that is not anywhere in their statements that he actually tested negative for the coronavirus and that has a lot of people suspicious recent polls one of them in particular from a. B. C. News shows that only 62 percent of voters actually trust what the president says and particularly when it comes to the coronavirus theyre very suspicious and not satisfied 2 thirds of them according to this poll not satisfied with the way hes handled the pandemic so its not surprising given that the president seems so eager to get back out on the campaign trail which was a big part of what he talked about in this interview yes so what do we know 3 weeks away from the from the election kristen so what do the next couple of weeks look like for the president s in terms of his campaign rallies. Thats right 3 weeks away from the election a little bit more than that and as of monday it will be less than 2 weeks since he announced that he had coronavirus and yet on monday you will be at a rally in florida very important state for the upcoming election doing what he loves to do best and standing in front of crowds again looking to change the energy and the picture in the discussion around the Campaign Around the election the president will also go to iowa and pennsylvania and interesting that these are also very important swing states and polls have shown that joe biden the Vice President democratic candidate is pulling away from the president this is been happening since that debate that was very contentious and. Some said unpresident ial since his trip to the hospital for treatment for a coronavirus the Vice President seems to be pulling ahead if you believe the polls which of course are just a snapshot but given all of that he again is seems very eager to return to the campaign trail and change the discussion a bit back towards the economy which is the number one concern for American Voters right now and has suffered tremendously because of the coronavirus and interesting lee voters do seem to trust the president more on him dealing with the economy that is his strength so hes going to want to play to that strength get out there try to allay the fears but the question is does this come across as reassuring to voters who are very unsettled right now or is it seen as cavalier because you know of his age and the fact that so many people are still dealing with this terrible pandemic and the effects of it and more than 210000 americans have died from it all right chris and so on and we thank you very much for that update from new york. Be had if nigerias police says that and elites anti robbery unit will be dissolved immediately this comes after several days of protests across the country demanding the complete abolition of the special anti robbery squad demonstrators have accused the group of murder extortion and disappearances lets speak to a rough son johnny whos the executive director of the Civil Society legislative Advocacy Center hes joining us from a boozer for reaction to this news i suppose you must be pleased with this directive. Yeah well this is. A Relief Development but i think its fundamentally a shock to all of this petition of nigerians because once they really want accountability on those. Who have more the poor have. To have brutalized nigerians because this band in the needs without. You know sanction against those who perpetrated this act it to mean that when the spark to another unit they could look at this atrocity so what. For of course and to disprove the brutality that units of the police had been carried out against nigerians but most of the mentally nigerians are looking for fundamental reform in the police under skillets generally because of that to do it duration of this quality in the country these 2 months. Is curity in the country criminality could not in but do tree and all sorts of criminal activities both within and outside the school to actually fix in d. Progress of this country and therefore nigeria for skill to reform what rights rights you know ok ok let me just let me just like let me just stop you for just a moment sir let me ask you 1st about this issue of accountability that you were pointing out a moment ago nigerias chief of police has said that a team of investigators including Civil Society organizations and human rights bodies would be set up to investigate these abuses these alleged abuses by sars so isnt that a step forward when it comes to accountability. Well what we expected to do was the limitation of decisive forward that was there before that was conducted and government abandoned the city for it if they had implemented a commune dish and on that to before it probably will probably end discussion of atrocities that has been going on what we can see in an attempt by the government to try to douse detention that is already growing in a green on in the country so that it will not have. Into arab spring other ways you know if there is. Committed efforts to reform this you know you need. It limited right we welcome that development to especially from the National HumanRights Commission ok and youre telling me just a moment ago committee to see how do support can be just a moment ago you were saying that the theres an urgent need to reform the entire Security Apparatus the Security Architecture of the country how are groups like your Civil Society groups going to push for that and do you think there is the political will for such reform in the country. Well 1st of course it is necessary for the Political Class in nigeria to respond to this because they cannot govern without peaceful and prosperous nation the country is already suffering from a lot of insecurity a lot of. You know insurgency a lot of criminality going on that will take the best of us from coming to invest in nigeria it didnt take in a drastic measure to do with insecurity in the country secondly weve also. Been advocating for ditto reform in this. Country because right now theres no synergy theres no proper coordination among the Security Apparatus in the country and that is way they have not been able to successfully do with issues of its agency so the issue is has to do with the corruption this so whats corruption in this getting that need to be dealt with clearly. You know spending a lot of money in the name of security boards and they are not providing any security for nigerians right so we need to continue to advocate for total reform in this committee in the country ok we thank you well have to leave it there we thank you very much our rafsanjani for speaking to us from a boozer.
