and it's more interesting because this time around is the supporters of president a lot of bravo remember the war lost the election to. 10 years ago and he's refusal to give up power resulted in the country's civil war in which 3000 people died. is. has been acquitted by the way by the international criminal court for his alleged involvement in the crisis and the other candidate was. gone sort of was former speaker of parliament and a very close ally with a lesson or 2 others and what until the 2 fell apart as a result of succession issues now the candidature of a loss and what ties solve has been controversial from day one. he had his 2 terms and he's about running out and then there was an idea that he should run for

a 3rd term eventually he decided to lead former prime minister i'm not going to contest who incidentally died suddenly and that through the ruling party to some confusion eventually i lost in what are and i was just candidacy saying that he's going to run for the time his opponents say it illegally is unconstitutional but his supporters also say that the 2016 constitutional amendment. guarantees him that right to contest in that election he says he had the term of office such a law will start from the the amendment of the constitution in 2016 so that's the stand of us and whatever and right now supporters of the 2 candidates and lot of bible are heading to the election commission to file their people us here and there's great concern about the level of tension the might surround these elections in that there has been tension in the past and sometimes it is spilled over into

the streets how concerned are people that that is going to happen again and in fact it could ramp up as the election gets nearer. absolutely it's a serious concern not only tri borders but also ivory coast neighbors something international community remember i recall was one of the most stable democracies was one of the most stable countries in not only west africa but africa as a whole eventually we saw the civil war 2 of 10 years ago and that resulted in $3000.00 death now when i lost in what i was knew to be idea of running for 3rd term there was violence there were protests a lot of people died in those protest in clashes between opposition supporters as well as the security forces and about 2 or 3 weeks ago when he finally and i was just handed it we saw violence erupt some a few people died compared to what we saw before but again that is a very very serious indictment on the situation there on the leadership there so

that he's a lot of tension there and there is a lot of concern that this could spiral out of control. bringing us up to date with the situation from. thank you very much indeed baltic countries say they're imposing travel sanctions and bellow russian president alexander lukashenko along with 29 other officials that have any a lot going on and estonia said they're likely to expand it sanctions as the protests grow tens of thousands marched through minsk on sunday demanding look at his resignation 3 weeks after his disputed election bernard smith has the latest from neighboring lithuania. sunday's alexander lukashenko 66th birthday this is not the president he was hoping for. were not a herd of cattle or cowards were belorussians that chanting i was. it's 3 weeks since the disputed election that the ballot russian president claimed to win with 80 percent of the vote no one here believes that and they've been

protesting against luka shank ever since. i'm here to express my disapproval at the ringing of the elections and to be in solidarity with everyone he was detained i am for peace i am propellor us but. the protesters have been peaceful from the outset and after initially violently attempting to suppress earlier demonstrations the security forces have taken a step back in the past couple of weeks some protesters are being detained more than 125 according to the government and many journalists of have their accreditation revoked there was on sunday what witnesses described as the largest deployment so far of security forces who blocked off access to some main street. one of the country's largest mobile phone operators said it had reduced mobile internet capacity of the government's request. and tanks roll

down a road close to lucas shank his residence in minsk as protesters headed there. but there seems to be no indication the momentum has gone out of these demonstrations and luka schenker looks no more likely to loosen its grip on the presidency after 26 years. the kremlin says about amir putin called alexander lukashenko on sunday to wish him happy birthday for the 2 man of agree to meet in moscow in the next few weeks a suggestion of the kremlin's a willingness to buck russia's president as the european union prepares to impose new sanctions. bernard smith al-jazeera vilnius. the 2 main parties in montenegro have claimed victory in parliamentary elections and the results give the d.p.'s party a president's where there's a kind of it's a narrow lead but the opposition leaders declared the government had fallen but only if the prediction is a political analyst from montenegro he says an official result will take up to 2

days we have preliminary results stated by the independent n.g.o.s what is very important to mention is that the official state electoral commissions didn't. go out with it believe the results 'd we had claims of week 3 by the position parties and according. to what general said they are the majority of 41 to 42 out of 81 members of parliament. they already announced their ghoulish and. we help the possibly in part with how small per european coalition called united with one action also on an economically get him up tonight and told the public then they are short of one member of parliament to form a majority so preliminary he announced the last night you'll still be out.

way to put hong kong on a course for recovery. the universal community testing program is running from september 1st the government is heavily promoting the campaign which has been funded by mainland china central government at a cost of $20000000.00 the offer was presented as a favor to the city government has released this video thanking my mental storage fees for the hilt so odd choice let me reiterate that this is a 100 percent voluntary universal testing program the aim is to ensure those who want to get tested can get tested more than $140.00 centers have now been set up with voluntary testing to start on tuesday the hong kong government says it's responsible for sample collection but a team of 60 medical staff from china will lead the screening and 3 mine land based or bird trees will process the results china's involvement is being viewed with skepticism by some who fear the genetic data could be used for other purposes we do

not know how the data will be stored how long they are going to retain or if they are collecting the data for testing so what they use it for comparison for this takes we we don't know despite a recent outbreak hong kong has seen a downward trend a few of the 100 cases for more than 20 dies the government says this screening program imes to address a recent spike in community transmissions and also give people peace of mind opposition groups and some in the mirror. community so messed testing is not the most cost effective solution i don't go against testing but i really think that testing should be tackett testing should be targeted to those who have symptoms testing should be targeted to doe's with close contact with a confident cases. as reported more than 4 and a half 1000 coronavirus cases so far this mess testing program may identify more
