11:06 am
by watching this event and really this is an annual event in putin's calendar what sort of concerns do russians normally boice in these encounters. well there reportedly already been one an over one and a half million questions submitted and usually those questions terry touch on kind of the issues that are closest to people's heart so often local issues economic things very much focusing on internal russian policy so things like roads things like hospitals things like education this year we're likely to see for example questions about the rising price of oil which people have been very unhappy with and potentially also questions about a looming pensions reform ministers have been discussing raising the pensions age and that's a reform that people say is economically necessary but of course it's very
11:07 am
unpopular and it's interesting because surveys show that actually people most people approve of foreign policy in russia sixty percent of people approve of what's going on in foreign policy in the country but only a third of people approve of what's going on in the actual country now to find out what people's concerns are this year i took to the streets to ask people what they would like to ask of led. putin as he's known here let's take a look. but we're wondering where the root lead even of leggins whether it would be bloody mean of blood to me or if it's you have gained enormous authority around the world you put off foreign policy in order. but when will you put the country in order and you know what my question is we are helping other countries restoring schools there but who is going to help us. which of course i want to know when

11:09 am
journalists and the people in the audience the normal people were hand picked the questions were hand-picked and reportedly even rehearsed in advance last time we saw that there was a new element there were text messages that flashed up on the screen and some of them were very critical for example one of them asked when putin would be resigning but it turned out that even those were hand-picked by the kremlin and it's likely that this time the whole event will also be rather stage managed but there are some new factors that make things interesting for the audience and that we should be watching out for this time putin won't be directly talking to the audience but there are there is the possibility for people to call in. an app that was specially created to make video calls and send video messages as well so kind of giving an appearance of being very modern and the other element is that it seems there's and
11:10 am
more of an emphasis on looking to the regions and finding out what the concerns around the country are and there are reports that putin will even be calling governors during the show. always thank you so much really sure when they're in moscow as president russia russia's president vladimir putin gets his nationwide q. and a on their way. well retired jamaican sprinter usain bolt is trying to kick start his career in professional football having already practiced with bruce dortmund earlier this year bolt has now played in a friendly game in norway for a club side strong set wearing the shirt number nine point five eight his world record time for the one hundred meters the thirty one year old had the best chance of the game against norway's under twenty team despite polls best efforts and some decent touches of the ball his team ended up losing the friendly one nil.
