8:02 pm
general elections. both is a choosing new collective presidents and parliamentarians, the polls the scene that's most important since the end of the war. in 1995, the dayton peace accords ended the boston war and 1995 and established this system of ethnic quotas. within many levels of government and the agreement name supposedly her governess, 3 main ethnic groups as both next croats and serbs as the countries constituent people. those who split the nation into 2 so called entities, the federation of bosnia herzegovina and republican substitute, the federation has predominately both and the i concur at 12 republican subscript is so both entities have their own prime ministers and parliaments linked through a week central government, a tripartite, the presidency is made up of one both at once and one crew out their share, a 4 year term rotated every 8 months. boise is main house of parliament uses a system of proportional representation. 28 members are directly elected by voters
8:03 pm
in the federation. and the remaining 14 are elected by republican service. go as a bank joined us now live from, sorry over. so i said, polls of close. i was looking yes. hopefully you can hear me over the church bells ringing. so we've heard from the total commission. they've said that there's only been one major incident that was in the republic of sca we're already crossed by that's going to affect it. and the polling station was closed for the day and 5 officials were arrested other than the vote of gun. absolutely fine. we don't have a number yet in terms of no turn out. as you said, this is a complicated political system and we've been speaking to people in stereo and is a mix between frustration at that for the kill system and how it holds the country
8:04 pm
back. many people feel that it hold them back and also the fact that many people don't want to vote. we've seen over the years, a motor turner has been decreasing diverse post boy action turnout was around 80 percent an hour. and the last few years has been around 50 percent or so. yes, there is a considerable amount of frustration at the system. but also there is a certain amount of tension in the run up to these the elections because of some of what the politicians have been saying, especially from republic services. i mentioned earlier that this is being perceived is one of the most important elections since the end of the war back in the 1990. why is that? that's because of mill road, doug. it's now he is the leader of the republic services. the president is currently, but he's standing for the president of the separate entity republic service guy that he is a separatist. he's made some very strong statements. he said that he wanted to
8:05 pm
withdraw from institutions in this country. people have been worried about the militarization of the police in republic serves guys also a close ally of moscow. he went to steve room for a russian president vladimir putin. he supported the war in ukraine and he is also said that he wants to leave the country now that has alarmed the number of people as well as western leaders because that could cause a conflict. but that's expected from separatist in republic services. the other concern is that if a president is elected from the crotch or the crook, arkwright president is elected that the separatist now that gives their presidency 2 thirds. so 2 of the 3 presidents with have control over key institutions that are separate checks. so that is concerning a lot of people. yes, the war ended 27 years ago, but the shadow of that war, those ethnic and religious divisions still exist and people are frustrated with the system. but right now that doesn't seem to be
8:06 pm
a viable alternative. put forward by anybody or, and i said leave it at the moment. thanks very much for back to after break the in, sorry, over voting also underway in brazil in elections. why the scene is most important since the restoration of democracy in the 1982 front runners have cast their votes for president. loosen nothing really to silver has been polling ahead of income, enjoyable scenario by double digits around a 156000000 people are eligible to cast their ballots. that is the largest number in brazil's history the last 4 years ago. i couldn't woo because i was a victim of ally. now i'm here voting that the recognition of my full freedom and with the possibility of once again being the president of this country. what matters is the voice of the people. what's matter is that clean elections and thought problems made the best. when will you recognize the result of the election?

8:15 pm
they are still long way north in southern chad. central african republic, dia, congo, ethiopia, nigeria, less so. but certainly those rains are a long way off into this. a hell that's true for the next 2 days. they do spread south into angola, but generally speaking in southern africa, we're seeing some spring war to snot everywhere. and kate times on the 20 degrees. but look at johannesburg and have alone in southern botswana. these temperatures are on the way up and 4 butts, one as capital alone. we may be touching reco values by the in the tuesday. the record is $38.00. ah frank assessments, if the united states now that you're running a good program was there to deal with deal by no informed opinions. i believe that armenia and those are very generous, should have bilateral negotiations. we've been calling that for many times.

8:18 pm
absolutely no winner here. the largest party is job. this is the continually frustrating thing for the electorate. the whole situation where by this fragmentation in politics, a real crisis right now, because there are so many parties with small shares that will have to be a coalition here. it will take some considerable time if it works that could fall again. there is a real question mark over the political future of bulgaria. a job is run by boat boy co boris of ah, who is an. busy old hand, he's had 11 years in power. i his a government. busy fell in 2021. after a whole mass of protests against corruption, boris of himself, was arrested a by a carole,
8:19 pm
a pet cove. sir party continue the change which had won the last election. he pet cough was instrumental in trying to get justice for all for corruption. boris off deny point blank. he was guilty of anything and he was released without charge that day after the arrest. so a, his background is questionable in some quarters, but he has been talking about being pro european. he is at saying that he will make his stand against rush. i will join the e u in protesting against russia. i will stand firm, but by no means is it clear as to where this is going in terms of those coalitions a given a little that, what's the, what's the mood leiber well, is one of desperation lea, at short turn out, is like this be possibly the lowest, ever, i'll certainly be very low around about 40 percent is likely. people aren't just
8:20 pm
apathetic. they just don't know who to trust because another major factor in all of this, of course, is russia's invasion of ukraine. and there's quite a lot of sympathy for russia here. a lot of politicians don't admit it, but, but they are singing the tune of russia. there are allegations that the corruption is, is risk. but, but russia is responsible for a lot of the corruption in that it's bribing areas of them. administration at to work in a rush is favor so that the, the public could be forgiven for being apathetic for being frustrated and for wanting change, but continue the change with the party i mentioned before the party that's coming 2nd right now has attempted to to go further and further towards the e you of course when gas was cut from russia it was a big deal. ready and a lot of people, a lot of the public that were frustrated because 85 percent of the energy needs of, from russia. and of course, that was very unpopular. now,
8:21 pm
what we're seeing and it remains to be seen whether. busy or not this joe party will do so, but there was the could be movement towards russia for giving it support in return for, for energy. because a gas prom, the massive russian states, a gas supplier used to a pipe gas to this country. and though have been political moves in the caretaker government has been in control this past 3 months to go back to a gas problem that in the views of many people here would be a catastrophe. it will certainly be a massive issue for the european union, because this country is a member of the you and a member of nato. all right, i did leave it. that meant thanks very much. i you same is reporting that from sophia. k prime minister has admitted she could have better prepared the public and financial markets for a new economic plan. this trust was speaking to the b, b. c. the announcement of her mini budget cause the pound to plummet to record lows against the door. i do want to say to people by,

8:23 pm
2 groups linked to al qaeda and iceland. now he's at the helm of a country facing an insurgency of arm groups according to to, to local media, president for president. but all he dummy, bob resigned under a certain condition. some are some of the conditions that he mentioned. he wanted that the, the pursuit of military operations on the ground, he wanted to ensure that the forces loyal to him would not be sidelined with, with the new arrival of president ibrahim, char, rape. and also he wanted the pursuit of the national reconciliation and the respect of the pledges med made to echo on the west african body, the regional body and the belong either by the government had pledged that they would be returned to civilian rule and elections by 2024, but before that there is a lot of work ahead for colonel ibrahim tory, to try to form

8:26 pm
they just pick them out and they go to. so the, we don't things really the intellectual, i mean, voice whether you're in or american, where they just forget that these we have g main differences, they should for us, how to go to them. so that exist, i mean, the good, the roots of these companies just come up with these, you know, this is due to sort of the whole scenario with, with, with a very modest and b. she's, you know, ideas of, of in ending this war. the problem is with, with the intention of habies and behind him the united states were just pushing them to have all these headaches, in that area. the russian forces are pulled out of a strategically important eastern you creatively man. as part of the russian claimed region of the netscape, the man served as a logistics and transport hope the russian forces. charles stratford is in this via
