a 2nd round runoff. supporters of lewis and as soon as silver a celebrating after he came out on top in the 1st po, for the former president didn't get the 50 percent, plus one boat needed to avoid the run of ill faced the incumbent jebel scenario on october 30th cent hardwood she thought really focus with, i know everyone wanted us to win the 1st round, but in my life a belief that drives me and motivates me is that nothing happens by chance. and during this whole campaign with the polling, i always thought we were going to win these elections and we are going to win these elections. and this, this is for us just to pause. things are not good and we need to recover this country. and it's image on the international stage. well, a latin america editor, elissia newman, has more on looted a silver speech. he has said, and it was very interesting. he said, i tell those who may be sorry to hear this, but in 28 days we will be back. i had 28 days to make up for this short call,

which he compared to a football game. he said this is kind of like the extra time when you go back but you know who's going to win or so he says, people here are telling us also that they believe that luna will win in the 2nd round. but it's a very clear, it's going to be a hard election, a hard run over next. and because a did much, much better than expected. were you know that now the polls were wrong, of luna is about 5 percentage points. i head out of his rival, the president, but he thought he was going to be 15 percentage points ahead. that totally what the polls were saying they were clearly white exaggerated, quite wrong. i've been to many people are going to be doing soul searching, know that there he's talking about making alliances. i'm having these 20 a gave to spend his alliance and he's already in a, in a coalition with 9 other political parties. some of them very conservative,

are center, right, including his vice presidential candidate. good article i came in was one to start to rival during other presidential elections. but that's the way politics go. and now both sides, i believe, are going to be trying to find ways to make up the difference and when all out right on it, on the 30th of october, to not a lot of time, the country's going to have to go through this all over again. and that will certainly raise political tensions, and perhaps the level of aggression that we have been seeing during this 1st round of the election. well, speaking out the results were announced, incumbent president, john bolton, are of knowledge that brazilians are struggling with the state of the economy. but he said that turning to a left his candidate like luda, it's not the answer well blows you guess what he does? what worries me, he's present, losing it freedom from brazil, moving to the left eye, venezuela, argentina, columbia, and chile. that's my concern. the 1st victim in these cases is the freedom of the

people and going backwards. we have nothing to gain and everything to lose. we got out we're money or apple or joins us live now from brazilian at money that we just heard president j bolts on aero speaking there. what was he been say? that's right, darren and did clearly where we are right now. nowhere near as lively as the scene that we saw from our colleague lucito in south paulo things have wound down here in the brazilian capital brasilia. we are on the campus of the supreme electoral court, which is the public institution that's tasked with coming out with the official declaration of of the election itself. we've now heard from former president lula da silva. we've heard from presidential seattle even though just up into a few moments ago, president bull sonata was still sort of holding that infer more informal press conference, wasting no time getting back into the campaign mindset. the outline of the many

accomplishments of his administration over these past few years, talking about the political alliances that, that he's making ahead of the upcoming round 2 of elections that are taking place at the end of the month on october 30th president bull. so not a we should know, this is a very kind of an interesting point that he made during this press conference following the results that were announced. president, bull seattle says that he was going to hold off on making any sort of statement regarding the outcome of the elections that took place on sunday until after the brazilian armed forces made their declaration. now, as far as we can tell, this is without precedent, it's out of the ordinary precisely because it is not up to the brazilian mil military to determine the outcome of an election or to determine the level of transparency of an election. and this certainly speaks to a sort of posture by president bull sonata that he's maintained throughout the course of the campaign that he places far more faith in the armed forces of brazil,

who by the way, he enjoys an overwhelming support from the, from the armed forces here in brazil, places more faith in the armed forces than he does in the supreme electoral court, which is again the public institution which is tasked with determining the final outcome of the election. so this is certainly not going to quell and concerns that people have had over a scenario that could involve former president lula winning the either the 1st or 2nd round of the election. and then having president jade will sonata not i'm not accepting the results of that election. so that is a scenario it hasn't played out. but again, with the type of rhetoric that we're hearing, once again saying that he's going to wait until a statement is made by the armed forces not really settling any of those are not not really settling any of those concerns. there are many, as you say, the country doubt faces the 2nd round, run off vote, talk us through what happens next. right. so the scenario that played out on sunday is very much in line with the forecasts where

the poles that we were expecting here in brazil, even ahead of this perhaps the margin between the 2 candidates is, is a bit more narrow than people were expecting. but according to the brazilian electoral law, a candidate needs 50 percent of the vote at the very least 50 percent of the vote plus one vote in order to win outright. in that 1st round, neither president shade bull scenario or former president lula were able to obtain that threshold of 50 percent plus one in order to avoid the run off, which is why we're seeing the 2nd round of elections now scheduled to take place at the end of the month again on october 30th, but in terms of process, in terms of procedure, what we've heard from the electoral court following the closing of poles. following the announcement that the, that the run off would be taking place was overwhelmingly that things went very well. what we expect during a press conference that is scheduled on monday at 2 pm local time here at brazilian is probably a little bit more analysis of do a little bit more specifics on what went well. perhaps what could have been

improved on there's going to be attendance from international observers throughout the course of the night. this place was flooded. i know that it seems very quiet now. it has wound down everything. sort of all the lights are off at this point, but this place was flooded with international press, with media, with government officials, with international observers from the european union, from the organization of american states. and we expect that tomorrow they'll just be there is going to be a little bit more specifics on what's going to happen next. what went well and what can be improved upon direct manual? rapid life is that in brazil monday. thank you. now to the war in ukraine where president vladimir zalinski says his forces of re taken to settlements and her son region as part of a counter offensive in the east. the capture, the town of leman on saturday, is seen as a key moment in the fighting nato. says the victory is a sign of progress. the town is in the awkward region of danielle, which moscow declared as part of russia on friday. out of there was charles dropped

not affect the performance of their task. so as some of its spiers have been damaged by the shelling, but this 16th century russian orthodox monastery remains relatively unscathed, the level of destruction here proved just how fierce the fighting has been. in recent weeks, this russian orthodox monastery has been a place of pilgrimage for centuries. but now the ukrainian soldiers here tell us they fear the priests inside a sheltering what they describe as russian collaborators. the bridge to the monastery over the soviet ski donates river has been blown up on both sides. unlike most of the population of the village, the priests are still here. the world now taco bell, i'm for my to this monastery comes under the moscow patriarch, which from the start has been destroying ukraine from the inside. therefore, we see all these monks as russian agents. so there's

a very high chance they've been hiding collaborators and, and i think some of the few people who stayed and survived the fighting, a sheltering in the basement of another damaged nearby church. because their homes have been destroyed. glued miller's husband passed away in may. her children fled to halt give when the fighting started. i knew you don't, but we're not leaving because this is our land, our mother land. we're even prepared to live in a dog out. if it means we can stay near. another homeless family descend the stairs to the church crypt where they sleep. they ukrainian village lies in ruins on land . vladimir putin says is now part of russia and has vowed to take full control of by any means. cha, stratford al jazeera switzer. he asked, eastern ukraine, funerals had been held in a indonesian, the city of milan after one of the deadliest stadium incidents in history. a 125
