>> reporter: at the fish market, the wide variety of seafood is overwhelming. almost as overwhelming as the unprecedented number of candidates to choose from in this presidential election. >> there are nine of them, says this voter. they include three women, independents, candidates from the far left to the far right. in the lead, two women with a shared history. bachal bachalay. their fathers, air force generals were close friends. the military coup divided their families and chile. one, matay joined a dictatorship, the other died at the hands of it. >> even though we did have a childhood that we share, we represent two different products of country, of society. >> the former socialist president has a double-digit lead over her conservative rival. the only candidate who believes

chile does not immediate major reforms. >> to do tax reform, my adversary is proposing will ruinous, she told business leaders. but the demands of the street, from free quality education to a new constitution to replace the one left by the former dictate offership dramatically changed the in caseses political agenda. chile's currently constitution does not allow the government to unilaterally call a reverender. to try to prove the public supports a new constitution, unprecedented movement is underway calling for voters to mark the top right-hand corner of their ballots with the letters "ac" which stand for constitutional assembly. the candidate who will most certainly win will have higher corporate taxes for free education, public health and pension funds. >> another candidate, who came

in a close third in the last presidential election says the generation of politicians won't deliver. >> when she was president, she and her team blocked the vast majority of the reform she proposes today. why? because her generation was traumatized by the coup. they were held back by fear of confrontation. >> widespread. so perhaps the biggest uncertainty is how many people will actually participate in this presidential election in which the first time voting is not ma'ammed tory. lucy newman, al jazeera, sant iiago. >> let's look at some of the issues dominating campaigning until chile. it is renowned for its education system. students away it is unfair. now, they say

office with 84% is probably grown and they would like someone to carry out those major reforms. >> she may be seen to be the right person to carry out the reforms. but what about rivals? what are they saying about her proposals? >> well, her closest rival, evelyn mcday, is simply saying that chile is doing all right. it needs a little bit tweaking here and there, but fundamentally, why change a system that works very well? many chileans would disagree with her saying chile is not working that well apart from a tiny elite. the others, pretty much the other candidates, nine candidates all together for the about the see have pretty much variations on that theme t quite how much should chile's constitution be reformed? this is a constitution, pretty much left over from the military dictate offership hasn't'

changed dramat click since pinochet changed 20 years ago. it's how much that constitution should change, how much what on the surface looks like a health bey economy should be messed around with. >> intriguing. daniel thank you for that. reporting for us from the chilean capitol of sant iiago. >> the french president says he will continue tom oppose a nuclear deal with iran until he is convinced it is not pursuing nuclear weapons. speaking in israel at the start of a three life day trip. it is thought france was involved in blocking a final deal to ease sanctions during a summit of world powers last week. >> france will not stand by and watch the proliferation of weapons will maintain position and sanctions against them. >> and it joining us now from jerusalem, mike, we do know that

president net en netanyahu and ilan have been holding a news conference. what's come out of that press conferen conference? >> its centered on the issue of iran. both leaders making very clear their belief that pressure needs to be maintained in the words of therictionisi prime minister benjamin netanyahu not only must pressure be maintained. it shut be rach edited up. he insists sanctions must be continued to be applied and more should be introduced until and here he made clear israeli bottom line. he says iran has to destroy all its centrifuges and heavy water reactor. francois holland was on the same page to a certain extent. he said negotiations are far better to any force. he said progress has been made in these ongoing negotiations in recent days. he said it was not about

blocking any deal. he had just been thanked by prime minister netanyahu for his role in preventing the deal from going through recently. he said it's about getting credible guarantees from the iranians that they will not pursue nuclear weaponized technology. a slight subtle difference in the approach of the two leaders. but generally, they are both on the same page. they insist that more pressure should be exerted on iran while these negotiations continue. >> i find that interesting, mike, israel had been for some time the lone voice against relaxes sanctions against iran. now netanyahu has found an ally in olan. how did that come about? >> one must make clear it wasn't only is real vocal in the deal negotations saudi arabia and gulf states un comfortable and made the discomfort clear. on the issue of francs, it is

interesting. sfranings does have close relations with israel. it importantly has very close relationships with states such as saudi arabia. i am not suggesting this relationship in any way clouded the frefrmth opinion on the iranian deal. however, that is always in the background. the position olan is taking and he was very careful in positioning himself, insisting negotiations are good, they must continue, insisting force is an unacceptable option and insisting, too, that a deal is possible if the guarantees put forward by the iranians are sufficient. he did not go into the details of what guarantees he needs. however, he did make very clear that negotiations should proceed and france may not be as inflexible in terms of meeting a deal as certainly a country he like israel or indeed saudi arabia might be. >> mike, thank you for getting us up to date on that. mike hanna there speaking to us

union. before that happens, the eu wants serbs living in northern kosovo to integrate with the rest of the country. a good indication of that would be their part isation in the election. so while serbia's government and belgrade has encarpoolinged them to vote, hard liners who have refused to recognize kosovo's independence have tried to thwart the election. more. >> under the watchful eye of the police force, these people are once again casting their ballots . >> last month, masked men entered the bombing station, destroyed ballot boxes, smashed wind otherwise and injured election commission members. while their identity isn't known, fingers were pointed at the anti-election campaigners dubbed serb extremists by belgrade. those who boycotted the e elections rejected the allegations. >> it would be political madness. why would we destroy ballot boxes when at the time, only about 2% of the people voted.

we were getting ready to start celebrating. all of the facts are suggesting belgrade did it. >> they hope it will will smooth their path but it appears to be reluctant backing as the prime minister was keen to point out when he addressed voters on friday. serbia can't help with tanks, not because serbia doesn't want to but because they aren't allowing us and because we can't win in this battle. today, we can win only by strong political connections and making smart choices. >> that's why you need to grab power here because of a strong election campaign led by belgrade government, the situation here is way different than comparing to just two weeks ago. many more people are voting, and there is no boycott campaigners to heckle them. >> the government is determined

the election will be a success. >> it is important to get the problem of the north solved because it has become a pebble in the shoes of kosovo. kosovo cannot represent itself as a functiona state without the north of the country and without the serbs. >> if the elections are a success, it's only a resolution in the north of kosovo crisis. deep division remains. it seems this is only the beginning of a long and uncertain journey. >> a bloody uprising which triggered the downfall of agrees 's former military dictator ship has been commemorated in athens marking 40 years since the revolt. the report now from the greek capitol. >> they weren't born when tanks rolled into the politechnic but
