on any charges stemming from his time in power. as you rightly point out, if convicted musharraf not only faces the possibility of life in prison but also the possibility of death. now musharraf has plead not guilty to all the charges that he is facing and also in a passionate speech in the courts he said he served the country for 44 years in the armed services and a true patriot and all the charges against him are politically motivated. >> reporter: he asked if he would be allowed to leave the country and the court is due to reconvene any minute now to decide on that plea. >> that's right, prevent musharraf submitted a plea requesting to leave the country to visit his mother who is 95 years old and currently in a dubai hospital in very bad condition and he also requested

u.s. and australia landing exercise which has been carried out on this southeast coast of south korea on this beach and a couple of others which 13,000 troops were involved and we went aboard a ship in charge of the exercise and spoke to the senior u.s. marine in the region and he said this was simply a matter of it being good timing militarily to carry it out and evaluated the potential risk of north korea seeing this as a provocation but the advantage was such they have to carry it out at this time. >> japan and north korea have held high-level talks and they were us spended when they demanded information about citizens abducted by the north and they hopes it resolves the situation and relations will improve. turkey's prime minister has declared victory in local elections with nearly all the

elect a new parliament. supporters of the justice and department party will be hoping this victory is the first in that set of elections, that will further empower their prime minister erdowan and the governing party, i'm with al jazeera. let's discuss this further and joining me from is istambul and this is regarding his popularity, are you surprised the resent scandals and corruption and his attempt to clamp down on twitter and facebook and youtube have not had more of an effect? >> well, i am disappointed and i also am to be honested ashamed of this result. they were serious corruption charges. and then the government is

following a very reckless policy, and lawless and lawlessness and he is polarizing rhetoric. and planting seeds of conflict in society. and many other immoral acts committed by the governing party have not passed 45% of the society and then they have voted for erdogan and i guess turkey is under going a deep moral crisis or political crisis and economic crisis, a deep political crisis. >> it's being asked why couldn't the opposition republican people's party get more votes, is it because they are less well resourced than the ruling party? >> well, those such claims, i have followed the elections and

there were hundreds of reports from all over turkey that the ruling party attempted to rig the elections. and then the people, there is an explanation for that. i mean, this is -- i don't just disregard this. but there are certain things that are so abused. i mean, if you listen to any speech he is furious and polarizing and dividing the country and he is really pushing the others who do not vote for him to other edge and then the 45% of the people in this country are happy with this. it is unexplainable to me. i mean what kind of a society they want to lead. a society that is always polarized and always intentioned. i'm really speechless and don't have an explanation and i'm disappointed and i cannot explain, i cannot recognize

these people. >> he hinted he may run for president. if he does he may well significantly increase the powers of the presidency. >> well, for that he has to do some constitutional changes. his party does not have that power in the parliament and i don't think that within the time limits he will be able to do so. but there is also the other question, what legal checks and balances are available right now in turkey? i mean, even with the existing power of the office, i guess he will be able to manage the office of the prime minister probably because he will appoint someone who is just going to be his puppet. >> thank you very joining us and we are live from is --
