cnn newsroom. i'm paula reid in >> washington >> tonight in russia, president vladimir putin is proclaiming russian unity after polls closed in a three today presidential election, with no genuine opponent running against him. putin is expected to win, keeping him in office until 2030 and continuing as russia's longest-serving leader since soviet dictator joseph stalin cnn's matthew chance is in moscow matthew, what else did putin have to say tonight >> well, it was a, an extraordinary post election sort of makeshift press conference, ad hoc press conference that he gave two members of the press, the local press the foreign press as well. there were members, they're asking various questions. he just finished giving his thank you speech to volunteers and to supporters in the auditorium, saying that the election victory, that the
3:02 pm
final results hasn't come in yet, but the election victory a represented essentially, and i'm paraphrasing him here. a mandate for his continued work in the country, which we take to mean the continued special military operation, the war in ukraine, which you made several references to as well. then there was this q&a session in which he spoke about a range of topics including a lexeme felony. he mentioned the late russian opposition leader by name, saying confirming a story that has already been put out there by members of the opposition that in the days before alexey navalny died last month at the vladimir putin was come to by somebody he knew, not a member during his administration and it was suggested to him that alexey navalny be swapped as part of a prisoner exchange deal, which he said he agreed to immediately before that person that even stopped speaking on the condition he said that he
3:03 pm
never came back. and so he made a sort of off-color joke about the fact that he wanted to get rid of alexey navalny as soon as possible. but then he went on to say it was very sad that alexey navalny died in prison. he said that other people have died in prison as well. and it was instead it happens in the united states also. and so there was a bit of back and forth about that. he also putin i took a moment to sort of side swipe and sidestepped the criticism of this election in russia, which many sort of, outside observers have said is not democratic because the opposition were not allowed to stand and it was essentially choreographed and orchestrated. and so there was an absolute certainty that vladimir putin would win. and he took a swipe at the us presidential campaign as well. and us presidential politics as well, saying that it was, it was shameful and laughable that a candidate in the presidential debates, in
3:04 pm
the presidential campaign in the united states? should be targeted by the judicial system. he said, at least in terms of the electoral process, electric electoral procedure in america, there was no democracy in the united states. and so a very kind of slap of american democracy. they're given by vladimir putin. and so, yes, it was a surprise you kind of speech and q&a session from the newly re-elected russian president to members of the local press well. despite the lack of any real opposition on the ballot, there were some acts of defiance at the polls. what can you tell us >> yes. the were and that's something that i think i think has been very surprising to people who've been watching this. not least because russia is a country where expressions of dissent and have very serious consequences. and so when you see people coming out
3:05 pm
and disrupting the election or attempting to or supporting the opposition in some way is extremely risky and extremely unusual, but for the course of the past three days and that's along the voting has been going on for here. people have been sort of pouring inke and green dye into ballot boxes to try and ruin the papers. the voting papers already inside, according to election officials, have been a number of arson attacks against polling stations across the country earlier today. there was an extraordinary development where members of alexey navalny's team, who now of course based overseas, had called on voters in russia to all and supporters of the opposition altogether at once at 12:00 midday, midday against putin, they called it to come and show their support for the opposition by turning up at polling stations all at the same time. and it kind of rolling process protest across the country. obviously, a polling station in moscow, it
3:06 pm
was nobody there at ten to mid day by 10%. there were about 150 people there. and so it just gives you an indication of the degree of frustration in russia at the political, what the diversity of political opinions that people could vote for in this presidential election, as i say, it was a abed cert that vladimir putin would win and the results that have come out show that he's one with a landslide, some 88% or thereabouts of the number of votes cast were that were cast for vladimir putin matthew chance in moscow. thank you now protests were also seen outside of russia. here in the nation's capital, protesters gathered out sunlight of the russian embassy today. and then berlin protesters there were joined by prominent opposition figures, including the wife of the late alexey navalny and she arrived to vote today at the russian embassy. there, cnn's frederik pleitgen is live in berlin for us. what is the latest
3:07 pm
>> hi there, paul. any we actually follow alexey navalny's widow, yulia navalnaya, as she was making her wage at trying get into the polling station inside the russian embassy here in berlin. and it took her six hours till she actually got inside because there were so many people who came there, many of them, of course, taking part in matthew was just talking about that call from the russian opposition made today against putin to turn up at polling stations and then go inside and vote for anybody. but vladimir putin, that was sort of the name of the game. there were actually a lot of people who apparently were pro putin, who were also standing in line there, but there were also a lot of people who openly showed there descend to the russian leader. of course, yulia navalnaya, was one of them. she, after she waited in line for six hours, she finally got it. and then when she came out, she said that when she was inside, she wrote the name navalny on the ballot that she had then filled out and she said she did that because she
3:08 pm
said that's the most prominent, the most important, the strongest opponents towards are for vladimir putin had died in prison. obviously her late husband alexey navalny, she was then asked about vladimir putin and if she had a message for vladimir putin and xi got pretty aggravated when that happened. i want to listen into what happened stores which ascii for message from me or from somebody for mr. putin. there is there could be no end in negotiations and notching with mr.. because he is a killer. he's a gangster, he's the person who brought my country to the war into everything, just stopped asking both messages to mr. putin. thank you. >> so as you can see here, there are a lot of anger toward vladimir putin calling him a killer and a gangster and why the other things that we also saw here in berlin, which you were just also showing their from washington dc's, there
3:09 pm
was a protest outside the russian embassy as well, calling for further support, military support for ukraine, a calling and also to not view this election that took place in russia as a legitimate ones. certainly, big number of people turned up here in a berlin. and again, it took folks six hours to actually get into the embassy because so many people showed up fred pleitgen. thank you for more on russia's elections. i'm joined now by cnn national security analyst, and former cia chief of russia operations, steve hall. steve with putin winning another term. what does the future look like for russia? >> you know, with putin in for essentially as long as he wants to be paula, um, it's it's it's not going to look good. i think, especially for oppositions. opposition is sir, people who want to try to be an opposition to put an inside of russia. and that's because putin has managed and indeed before putin as well, two condition the russian population to access at all manner of things to accept
3:10 pm
horrific numbers of dead young russians on the battlefields in ukraine, to accept a very low standard of living in comparison to many other nations in neighboring europe they've been conditioned not to be able to actually significantly in meaningfully protest and that's why you have the whole sort of stage drama that we saw today, which is referred to as the russian election. so if you are somebody who wants to be an opposition or lead an opposition to putin right now, it's not going to go, it's not going to go very easily. it's not going to go well in the next couple of years, i would say and just heard putin call navalny by name in his speech last hour, breaking with tradition so what do you think the future looks like for russia's opposition? >> yeah, like i said, not not good and it's very fascinating to me that, that putin actually use navalny's named because that's something that he has avoided doing. i think it shows how high putin is riding right now. not only vis-a-vis the lack of any meaningful
3:11 pm
opposition inside of the russian political system. but in terms of how he sees his future, you remember at the beginning of the ukraine war, there was a lot of question as to how badly it was going for russia and how long they were going to be able to hold out. putin's position was, look, we're gonna be in this for the long haul. we're going to be in this until the west loses its political will to fight helped the ukrainians fight back. we're gonna be in this over the long haul until the russia, until the west, sort of forgets or loses, loses focus and goes on to other things. that is a strategy that now looks much more successful than it did during the early days of the war. so i think putin is riding high today, not just because of his so-called air quotes victory, but also because he is really consolidated his position >> us, as you know, in many other countries have placed tough sanctions on russia, vladimir putin, and many of his closest allies since they invaded ukraine over the, over two years ago. but his grip on power remains. why is that
3:12 pm
>> it's because that's his emphasis. everyday, putin wakes up and thinks, okay, what are the threats to me personally? what, what are the threats to putinism in russia? and how can i demolish those threats? so in the case of the navalny, it's well that he's a guy who's got to be killed. he's a guy who's got it ago. he's a guy who's got to be off the scene. any of the any of the protest groups he expends enormous amounts of resources with his security services inside of russia to make sure that they are repressed, to make sure that anybody who is going to threaten he, him and his in his system inside of russia is eliminated and so that is why right now, because he's been so successful in doing that, that again, the future for him looks very positive >> steve hall. thank you. >> sure >> and in the last hour, president biden spoke from the white house once again, strongly calling for a ceasefire in gaza and the dire need for palestinian statehood. your, in the cnn newsroom the
3:13 pm

3:18 pm
house by the iris prime minister was the conflict in gaza. and that was top of mind in the president's remarks today, where he recognized the concerns held among the irish people about what is unfolding in gaza. and also called for an immediate ceasefire. take a listen >> hi, agree about the urgent need to increase humanitarian aid in gaza and get the ceasefire deal the hospital is home and move toward a two-state solution, which is the only path, the only path for lasting peace and security >> now the biden administration has been working on a deal that would include a temporary ceasefire so that humanitarian aid can get into gaza. and so that hostages held by hamas can be released. but the iron, but in a particular has had a support for the palestinian cause for some time now and in the iris prime minister in his remarks following president biden talked about that at
3:19 pm
length, saying that the irish people see parallels in history of oppression with the palestinians and saying that the irish people were quote deeply troubled. so this really loom large over both of their remarks. and what is otherwise usually a celebratory occasion. now, the two also talks about ukraine and standing by ukraine in its war against russia. but again, at the end of the day, this was a celebratory time here at the white house marking st. patrick's saying, and the two also talked about their economic cooperation gen. and their friendship over the years, especially years, decades long, diplomatic relations and doing all of that as the people in the crowd sits on none other than guinness, paula priscilla, thank you. let's talk more about this with cnn political and global affairs analyst and axios politics and foreign policy reporter barack ravid enjoys me now from chevy chase, maryland. >> our >> first what do you make of netanyahu's comments today that schumer's speech calling for elections in israel is
3:20 pm
totally inappropriate >> hey, paula i think i heard what you said and i saw dana bash is a great interview with him and you know, it was kind of funny and i think former speaker pelosi mentioned it afterwards, that netanyahu is complaining about interference by the us. and these rarely political scene, political system when i'm old enough to remember him coming to congress here in 2015, giving a speech against the wishes of president obama. and i think it just shows you how much these rarely us relationship how much it's intertwined, how much it's close, and how much it is impossible for each side not to really interfere in the others. >> political system netanyahu
3:21 pm
has repeatedly said that the israeli people are behind him, but thousands of israelis protest, sit around the country last night calling >> for the return of the hostages and for the resignation of these government. should netanyahu be worried? >> well, i think he is worried very much. this is why he's doing every effort including in the interview today, to push back on any suggestion that israelis want election even though you see it in all the polls and just the polls that we were published in three different israeli the tv channels, just a few days ago show that if elections were held today, you would have been defeated. he wouldn't lose. you would have been the fit. and he knows that very well. and this is why it's trying to, as best as he can push back on any assertion that early elections should take place netanyahu told cnn today that israel will keep trying to secure a deal to get the 100 hostages back in exchange for a
3:22 pm
six-week pause in fighting. >> do >> you think is real is really trying to reach a deal with hamas? >> well, i think we will know very, very soon the security israeli security cabinet is actually convening as we speak. i think it's the third hour that it's been convened to discuss exactly that. what kind of mandate to give the israeli negotiation team that is going to morrow to doha, qatar. and how much rope the cabinets willing to give them if the cabinet gives them enough rope, i think it's a signal that the tenant wants to do. if the cabinet did not does not give them row i think it's a signal that netanyahu wants to drag this on. continued talks, but not really pay the price that is part and parcel of every hostage >> the leader or the who says he has quote, gravely concerned after netanyahu approved plans
3:23 pm
for a major offensive in rafah that includes evacuating 1.4 million and gaza citizens the white house though says it has not seen a credible plan to protect those civilians if it moves into rafah. do you think netanyahu will really go through with this? >> well, it could happen sometime in the future. i don't see that happening in the next i don't know. three to four weeks. any operation rafat will have in it. a preliminary stage of evacuating people from rafah. this just this process will take three weeks. and right now, israel does not have enough forces in gaza. it will have to call in the reserves. again, the same reserves that the early discharge you want to call them again. this is also a process that takes time. >> right now. they have in gaza something like between three for brigades. this is not close
3:24 pm
to enough the number of soldiers you need for such an operation so i think netanyahu talks a lot about an operation raffa it could happen down the line, but i think that right now, what you see when he speaks about it is mainly a way to both pressure hamas to agree to better terms in a hostage deal, and also to pressure biden and the qatari and egyptian mediators to put more pressure on hamas to compromise but do you think that rafah operations could be a breaking point for netanyahu's popularity, both in his own country and around the world >> well, you know, in israel, the majority of israelis have no problem with an operation rough around the world. it's totally different or maybe totally opposite sure i at least from what i hear from us officials, if israel goes into rafah in a way that is not at
3:25 pm
least without showing the biden administration a credible plan to protect civilians there. and honestly i haven't met one us official. the things that such a plan is even possible. >> okay >> so i think this will get us to a real showdown between ateneo and biden, between the us and israel. and we'll just, i think exacerbate the current crisis, didn't you is also is already in with the biden administration let's talk about the biden netanyahu relationship where do you see that going forward >> no, we're good >> i mean, i think it's obvious that you know, those to have known each other for 40 years. sometimes when, you know, charged for 40 years it doesn't mean a good thing because, you know exactly when he's trying to manipulate you and it's trying to fool you. >> it works both ways. by the way. so i think right now,
3:26 pm
those two leaders who know each other very well know that they're not in good terms. and the differences between them are wide and the gaps are huge. >> and >> if there is a hostage deal, i think maybe there is some sort of a way they can >> i don't know menn relations, but if there's no hostage deal and netanyahu goes and operation raffa this will be a total break between those two. >> or aquavit. thank you. >> thank you very much. >> and former president trump is once again putting republicans on the defensive as they're being asked over and over to say whether they agree with trump. said some migrants aren't people, and that the country's auto industry would face a quote, bloodbath if he loses in november. your in the cnn newsroom we deserve a real king because if he cannot

3:32 pm
>> here to talk about that. and much more democratic strategist, where you're cardona and republican strategist, alice stewart bowles, cnn political commentators and co-host of the podcast mike's from left to right. thank you for being with us. all right. alice, i want to start with you. the trump campaign's says the bloodbath comment was just about the auto industry. your reaction? >> i believe it look, you have to look at their two definition. there are several definitions of bloodbath, but one of the definitions of the word bloodbath is a period of disastrous loss or reversal. that phrase is used all the time we're talking about the economy or the stock market. that's the context. i truly believe he was using in this case. he's talking in detroit, he's talking about the auto industry and he was making the case. and of course, i'm not surprised democrats took it out of context. he's making the case of what about china in if they're going to build huge manufacturing facilities in mexico and think they're going to send these cell, these cars up america if he's president, there will be a 100% tariff and
3:33 pm
they are not going to have the economic result that there are currently getting with the biden administration and also the campaign made the point quite accurately that joe biden's electric vehicle mandates are killing the american manufacturing industry and they're making the case that under the biden administration, that's not great news for the auto manufacturing industry, and that's an accurate statement? >> yes. oh, flesh, your whole look of course. i don't buy it. and what alice is saying he reflects every single kind of pretzel that republicans are bending themselves into trying to dismiss it, spin it, or try to embrace it. but the fact of the matter is paula, donald trump has a history of this dark, violent dangerous rhetoric, and we already saw the result of what happens when he uses that rhetoric, because even though every single republican that is asked is going to try to spin it and
3:34 pm
pretend that it really had nothing to do with a real bloodbath his cult maga supporters and followers totally know exactly what he was telling them. they demonstrated that on january 6. and the only thing that trump said is come to the capital. it's going to be wild. we have to take back our country. imagine what will happen when he loses after trump says things like it's going to be a bloodbath. if i lose that is dangerous. it's irresponsible and he should not get away with it. and certainly republicans should not be trying to dismiss it, but even answering questions like this cannot be helpful for republicans in terms of their own election prospects. >> and this >> is many in the liberal media would rather focus on this. then talk about the how poorly the economy is and how bad things are at the border, and how public safety is not good in many cities across the country. and my dear friend maria, do have to push back on the fact that what is dangerous is when democrats take things out of context, he was talking about the auto industry. he
3:35 pm
wasn't talking about january 6 and believe me i have been a country you and i heard it. we have had many conversations. i disagree with everything he had to do with january 6 and questioning the integrity of our election. but in this context, that's not what he was talking to alice. >> do you really think that his followers, even, let's give him the benefit of the doubt and say, okay what you are saying is what he meant, you know, his followers are not going to take it that way. he as a prospective president, should understand that this is where the massive failure is for him and for republican followers and elected officials who understand just how dangerous that is. >> r, let's go to the other comment that he made that has a lot of people talking. he was quoted a lot about talking about migrants. let's listen to what he said >> if i had prisons that were teeming with ms 13 and all sorts of people that they've got to take care of for the next 50 years, right? young people, they're in jail for years. if you call it for
3:36 pm
people, i don't know if you call up people in some cases than not people in my opinion, these are animals. okay. >> were you wanna start with you this time, your reaction >> that is again, par for the course, for donald trump, who was the most anti latino, anti-immigrant, xenophobic president that we have had in his street. he's doubling down on that kind of anti-immigrant xenophobia. this isn't the only thing he says about immigrants. he thinks my blood the blood of my family and my community poison this country. that is something that democrats are absolutely going to use to continue to make the contrast between what joe biden has done as he gets up every day we for the latino community and what donald trump has done and has said he will double down on ripping babies from the arms of their mothers. mass deportation camps, similar to operation wetback, those are not things that are good for the latino community and disastrous for the country. and we will continue to make that contrast >> agree with maria on a part
3:37 pm
of what she's saying in terms of the language and the rhetoric that he's using in this example is just not necessary and he can make the case which he has been doing based on the facts alone. he can make the case that we need to do something about the border based on the fact that joe biden has not done anything right out of the gate. biden comes in and reverses trump policies to the remain in mexico, as well as building the wall and what has happened three years later, people across the country are saying, we have a massive migrant surge at the border and something must be done. democrats in large cities, new york, chicago, denver are saying, mr. president, you need to do something about the crisis the border. so i do think that president trump, former president trump can make the argument for his policies with immigration and securing the border are much better for this country than biden's. and it doesn't necessarily need to have such toxic language see, this is where we have our podcast. >> and i love the unifying
3:38 pm
factor is a love of st. patrick's day. patrick, ladies, thank you so much for joining us. thanks. follow-up. >> and fox news now facing yet another potentially explosive lawsuit with a network accused of putting a tv crew in danger. shortly after russia launched a full-scale invasion of ukraine and getting two people killed in the process. your, in the cnn newsroom vegas the store you send city 109810 on cnn >> unnecessary? no. >> neither is missing your daughter's competition to do payroll with pay con employees do their own payroll. so you don't have to, ms your daughter's big day time to shine get pay calm, and make the unnecessary unnecessary
