1:02 am
military rule train president gabrielle burridge. cast his vote earlier on one of the 50000000 people eligible supporters of the new constitution claim is one of the most progressive in the world. but to so many julians could reject the constitution holes just before a 2 week blackout showed the no vote ahead by nearly 10 percent anyone remaining in line a polling place will still be able to cast their ballots in the compulsory vote. so what is it then about the proposed new constitution that they don't like? well, it recognizes 11 indigenous peoples offering the more autonomy, especially with judicial shoes. some critics object to their saying, it turns historically marginalized, indigenous people into a higher cost of citizen. it would also legalize abortion, give y to protections to the environment, drawing criticism from many in the traditionally conservative country. about 40 world renowned economists, some political scientists of back the constitution. but many of those riling against the changes,
1:03 am
say moving away from the current free market model will destabilize the economy. so if more let's, let's go live to i last america at a till you see a newman in santiago, tell us more about why this vote is taking place. hi marian. well, the role of his just said have close just a few seconds ago. and in fact right behind me is one of those. this has been the election where the largest percentage of julians have ever come out in vote voted it is mandatory. yes. but it's also an indication of just how much julians believe that a new constitution has the power to really change their lives for the better or the worse in this case this election or rather the notion of rewriting the constitution that dated back to the 1980 constitution written under the penal shane dictatorship came in 9 in 2019 would surely underwent an enormous social upheaval of social
1:04 am
explosion as it was called people. it was very violent at times, but the vast majority of julian said that they needed a new social contract in this country because of the social inequality that existed here. and much of that they believed was linked to that constitution, which is very, very free market. very pro private enterprise, private property and did not really guarantee the things of this getting constitution if approved, would guarantee tell, had to change and question's abortion. you mentioned also absolute gender parity if it was written, in fact with gender parity. the 1st constitution in the world where 50 percent of or more, in fact, of the delegates were women. and so there are a whole array of, of articles in this constitution that are groundbreaking, not just for this country of this region, but perhaps also of the world, which is why it's drawn so much attention and interest. but it's also been criticized from going to far in some cases for being
1:05 am
a to not being specific enough and leaving too many things to, to open to interpretation. particularly what you mentioned about the rights of the indigenous people. so it's going to be very, it's very difficult at this point to know which ag will win, especially because so many people are voting more than ever before. and this comes against the backdrop of rising inflation. cost of living challenges we see in many of the countries around the world in a slot a shops slow down in the economy there. how has gabrielle borage approach this? what is he said about this service referendum? well, the problem is that nobody had bodied is one of the biggest supporters of this record of this, of having a new constitution and he supports this version of a new constitution. remember, there was a another referendum over a year ago, or 2 years ago. i'm sorry, where jillian said that they wanted a, by a wide margin,
1:06 am
80 percent of those were voted say they wanted a new contribution. but what kind of a constitution, what it would say that's really been the problem. how much change not the fact the chileans want some sort of change and guardian body to mandate or of his presidency as being associated with this constitution so closely that if it is rejected, it will certainly weigh heavily on his popularity. and it will also be seen as a litmus test of his support. all right, thank you very much from santiago where the poles of now close our latin america to thank you is seen human. we are getting reports now from canada that at least 10 people have been killed. another 15 injured in a series of stabbings and saskatchewan province. now police say there may be more victims who have transported themselves to various hospitals in the area. these stabbings happen in multiple locations in the province. there are 2 suspects who remain at large. so this is

can the german government provide more arms, more munitions to ukraine than it already has done? the point here is the defense ministers say, well, they're getting to the point where there isn't much more that germany can offer ukraine in the form of weapons without prejudicing its own defense needs. then there is another suggestion from the ukrainian side, at least, that germany be more considerate of the idea of this idea of a ban on visas for russians coming to the european union. we know that the german chancellor is not really in favor of that sort of option. and then there's one other thing to consider in this visit over the course of the last 678 months. there has been some suggestion in some circles of a fall out as it were, of relationship between the governments, between the shots, government and the density government. because of the way that mister shots
1:12 am
believed that the german president had been handled not being allowed to go to care for mister shots was then saying he wouldn't go either. now there's very much more emphasis on the 2 countries coming together. and the friendliness between the 2 countries, given the amount of aid that germany has already sent to give or ukraine's president is saying, his forces have taken to settlements in the south of the country. one in the east has been fierce fighting in the south. i keep is trying to cut off thousands of russian soldiers and we take ground and a counter offensive. officials say it's not going to be a quick operation and they're asking ukrainians to be patient. meanwhile, civilians near the front lines are taking cover. gabriel alexander has more from keith it's sunday in the southern ukrainian city of b. goliath usually a day for people to rest. but there is no time for that now. oh, clean up a debris after the city came under russian shelling the night before. a medical
