9:04 pm
. i think the most important issue right now is our economy. i hope we can fix it. have come too far so we can retain our democracy. the unemployment rate is an all time high in iran and inflation. at more than 40 percent in vienna, members of president has found ronnie's team are in talks with the united states and other members of the un security council to get us back into the nuclear deal known as the joint comprehensive plan of action, j. c. p. o. a and they're hoping a positive outcome would deliver the results that people want to turn out as a major issue for official here who hope they can rally electric. that compared to what has on monday was elected a years ago. the next president may prove not so popular when he takes office in august. sources safari out 010, live down to us. a big into ron. observe is have been predict thing
9:05 pm
a low turn out into selection. what is your sense of how voting is going? where you are where in the sense of fair on a posing station is set up in a culture of a shrine. now we've been here about 6. i was when you 1st arrived there were many people here we thought ok, it's the hot temperature, very high. maybe they'll be more people when the sun begins to effect and that did happen. there were hundreds of people at one point in the courtyard courtyard of destroying. but here's the thing, not many of them voting go more people visiting the shrine than the voting and those ballot boxes behind me. i've been here 6 hours. the number of ballots have not increased that much in that period of time. now this is the size of the iran, it tends to be more conservative in the heartland of the conservatives, and he's here in ron. and the voter turnout doesn't look like it's great here. once you hear one of the parliamentary candidates, because this one parliamentary feat that's up, he came over to us and asked us what we thought we thought we said, look, we haven't seen many people vote. and his response was,
9:06 pm
it's like that everywhere. now thereon, isn't iran b r 59, eligible voe, a 59000000 eligible voters across the country. so we can't predict or speculate, but it hasn't been great. but as expected, the polls do suggest that there will be a lower vote to turn out the nose. countries ever seen was back in 1993, which is 50.5 percent of some of the polls suggest could actually be lower than that. but we'll, we will soon get an idea off turn out. not long now, before the polls close, i said, what are the main issues that people have been talking to you about? people have turned out to vote. what is their sense of what they want out of the selection? but pretty much every single person that we've spoken to, not only the fact that they're on across the capital and also the country what they've told us again and again, if the economy, unemployment is high inflation, it's high. people want to have
9:07 pm
a better standard of living. young people tell us that the price of daily goods has gone up. people just want a better life for the husband, ronnie, and he government have blamed us sanctions, but many people don't buy that base. they feel that there's been mismanagement of the economy just the 2015 nuclear hasn't exactly worked out. former president, donald trump pull the us out of impose sanctions against iran. but there's also underlying issues that the next president will have to address. and that is the economy. many people just want a better standard of living and even people that did come to vote here, many of them actually, all of them that we spoke to. they actually did vote and spoke to us told us that they voted for abraham. what they were asking from him is they want a better economic situation for the country. i said bag that person to her on thank you. let's look at who controls the levels of power within iran's political system. the candidates were all approved by the guardian council, which is a 12 member constitutional vesting body of conservative clerics and juris that
9:08 pm
reports to the head of the state. i itala holly, how many the supreme nita is appointed for life by a democratically elected body known as the assembly of experts. now the head of the government can serve to 4 year terms. the current president has sandra honey beach abraham racy 4 years ago. he and morrison resides, are considered to be hard line. conservative candidates. the former central bank governor of the nasa nazi is considered a reformist, the revolutionary god is a powerful voice in the country. but it's officially staying out of the presidential race, not supporting a single candidate. let's go to how many miss, sorry, who is the professor of political science at the university of 10? ronnie joins us from the vice skype. many thanks for speaking to it again on al jazeera. let's get a little bit of background. now, this election started off with
9:09 pm
a huge number of candidates, but then, by the end of it, there were only just 4 explains with what happened there. well yes the, the, the, the actual performance of the guardian council was very controversial, even within iran because in the past 24 years elections in iran have been very comparative. essentially, all, all presidents in the past 24 years were under dogs during the actions. and as a result, in the past 24 years, all of the actions had a participation of over 60 percent. the previous of action 4 years ago, how to participation rate of 73 percent are now this time around. the guardian council acted much more heavy handed, the and they actually disqualified my mood. medina, jordan, which was expected. he was disqualified as well, 4 years ago. but the disqualification of former problem and speaker id barring

respite. until then, you see a pick continues to be at a cross votes mohammed out the wall, just either vicki in the somali region of early elections have been called in on menia. but whoever wins will have to deal with a national psyche deeply wounded by defeats in a war with us by john last year. the 2 sides forward over the disputed region of nicole and come back. i'll just, there's warri challenges in the capital. he sent us this report. the fighting may have almost completely stopped, but if i, aman and amena the war is not over the 19 year old son hamlet, isn't home yet. and this there sure is him being captured by azerbaijani troops last october. since then, they've heard nothing by john denies holding him in consulting they said, during these months we've seen too much pain. we've lost our faith in the government in the elections. i won't participate, i will not vote. we're far from politics and all we want is our children,
9:21 pm
to my fax last week, as a by john returned 15 armenian military prisoners. in exchange back, you received a map showing land binds in an area they won back in last year's fighting. although the numbers are disputed as a by john still hold 60 to perhaps 200 armenians, it calls terrorists prisoners of war, just one of the damaging consequences of armenians military defeat. losing war psychologically puts a society in a deep advantage of situation. but society feels more stressed when imminent, humanitarian problems are not being result for for the society. officially, nearly 4000 da meanings were killed or disappeared when either by john took back territory last to armenia. during the 1st war, however,
9:22 pm
disputed new going to kara back, which ended in 1994 on this hillside overlooking year of and you really get a sense of armenia is loss. this is the main military symmetry that each of these soldiers fell in last year's war. many of them barely after that teens. so armenia is morning, it's sons, it's brothers, it's father's. but it's also morning, a sense of itself as a country on the new borderlines russian troops keep an uneasy truce. and armenians have been displaced from their homes like as by johnny's were nearly 3 decades ago . didn't i miss my house every day? i come here to gather time. i look at my house and i cry. you blood, graham, the crisis has triggered early elections. do this weekend. candidates are blaming each other for the defeat. but this analyst says the real problems, years of military over confidence and squandered internationally mediated peace
9:23 pm
negotiations are being ignored. the absence of a diplomatic strategy, the failure of military lessons learned. none of these are being addressed by any candidate, neither from the opposition nor the government. no one has been able to articulate either what they would have done differently or what they will do differently if elected armenia will soon have a new parliament. but how and if it can bring this country out of its trauma, is far from clear. rory helen's al jazeera yerevan war violence and human rights violations drove another 3000000 people from their homes last year. even as the pandemic shop board is restricted movements, according to the us, the total number of displays people has risen for 9 straights years and reached almost 82 and a half 1000000. about half of them are children. more than 2 thirds of all refugees come from just 5 countries. those are syria, venezuela, ghana stone, south to dawn,
9:24 pm
and me on more. all countries where conflicts are currently on bang and tacky host, the largest number of refugees, about 3700000. most of them from syria, columbia is next taking in more than 1700000 people from neighboring venezuela, mozambique t grey in ethiopia, and africa, broads. the hail region are among the leading sources of new refugee movements due to conflicts, the impact of climate change. the un says governments, particularly wealthy ones, need to do move. why are these people moving? they're moving because of economic reasons and this will require massive investments in their countries of origin. but they're also moving because of violence and insecurity perpetrated by gangs in the community in the homes. and these are reasons to recognize people as refugees. but also these are
9:25 pm
causes that need to be addressed in coordination in partnership with countries in the region. i speak to paul dobson, he's a journalist with venezuela analysis. don't call me joins us lie from merida and venice. what? via skype many. thanks for joining us on the program. you actually have some issues with this un report. what are they? yes, molly, when i think firstly, we have to applaud the efforts from the united nations in bringing this interest, this topic back to the forefront of the global interest. because obviously there are millions of broken up families across the world, which, which are heartbreaking, i think, is completely disingenuous to bracket they 5 countries. you just named into the same category, the causes of the migration and the displaced persons on the refugees coming out of syria coming out of south africa. that my in my a completely different to the causes or the venezuela migration. and the 4w5w
9:26 pm
people have left and that's why not they are categorized the refugees by the united nations. they are displayed and people have predominantly done left the country due to economic reasons. so i think to, to, to bracket all of these countries into one group and really overlooks a lot of the subtleties of the causes behind the migration. in each particular case, when we look at venezuela, for example, any call on regional government to take further policies to address the migration really have to stop by looking at us functions again, spend this way. now. we can one of the main drive in practice, which are for people to leave the country. as you say, the number of venezuelan refugees and migrants displaced 2nd only to syria, that's a huge numbers of people. why is that not been new? focus on it more when as of it but it's also worth pointing out to this point. marlene that in the, the 2020 report from the united nations,
9:27 pm
which estimate the 3000000 global increase in displace person. any 300000 of a, 3000000 archie venezuelans according to that data. so we can really see head of the increase in venezuela and migration in the parent. 20192020. any count for about 10 percent of the global refugees or displaced movement, basically a much smaller percentage than in previous years. so this kind of paints a picture to some extent. but the flow of the way the migration out of an wally is decreasing. it's reducing the some extent and when we compare it to the other countries, again, we have to go back to the course at the economic courses because it's been a wayland or not fleeing a war. venezuelans are not fleeing violence, spent as well as not fleeing persecution. at the united nation states in the same way that they are in my intimate in palestine and syria. and then i got done pulled up in journalist with venezuela analysis dot com many thanks for your time. still
