has been a very very colorful election campaign with candidates giving blood tests to test for drugs so the debates on friday in the country's biggest stadium so this is just part of that excitement tension that we've been seeing of the past weeks. in a debate last week selenski said he would seek to break this system what exactly did he mean by that. so solecki is pitching himself as the face of a new generation someone to really do away with the corrupt status quo after all poroshenko and to machine code for prime minister who came in third place they've all been told at school scene for twenty thirty years and he is someone who on the one hand is known to everyone as a star of t.v. and comedy so he had no problem getting people to recognize him but he quit some of his not associates with all that baggage and all the disappointments of ukraine's politics and ukraine's failure to live up to its huge potential of the past years so that is really his ticket not going to too much detail the policy his critics would say promising all things to all people in the hope of attracting a wide coalition of voters and seems to have come off earlier on in the political

season a candidate who was very supportive of russia did not quite make it to the next round what links if any does the lenski have with russia. so having a bit of trouble hearing here but the thing about the let's get it really appeal to voters is a positivity campaign was not about the war but standing up to russia and it seemed like a look basically like a lot of more hard work ahead for ukrainians bring that in that livingstone that support the army and basically sit out this conflict with russia solecki came in with a new tone using social media or all of the conventional campaigning trying to tell people they have a chance of changing things in a hurry and improving their situation fast that something that appeals to should with younger voters but not only and it seems to really appealed across the country i'm going to ask you know the question nick i hope you can hear me what does this mean now for poor shango he has lost to a political novice he's out of office what does this mean for his future.

well definitely there's a lot of nervousness as well as to what's next in store for him. potentially of see you there is always a possibility that the judiciary under a new president could look into his business dealings definitely there have been lots of accusations from the selenski camp about pushing those not him so much personally as his closest team and their involvement in disposability dubious government procurement contracts for defense having said that apart from an affair which the president who was overthrown by the modern revolution and who is now in russia all of ukraine's other post-independence presidents are in country and have more or less basically enjoyed immunity but it is difficult time for him now what his future will be we do have a parliament elections in the autumn so potentially pushing through much try and stay along and make sure his party stays in parliament but the extent of this defeat is really shocking this is something that how we haven't seen ukrainian

politics before and this will be definitely a tense night for petro poroshenko and its allies nic let's try this again i know it's very difficult to hear me where you were lots of celebration. but if you can tell us what is the link that people believe zelinsky has with russia. there are different levels of this on the one hand he is someone who is a russian speaker of his native languages russian rather than ukrainian and has used russian in public appearances something that was a bit of a taboo in ukrainian public life but it seemingly something that goes down very well with many russian speaking regions of ukraine in terms of russia's top politicians he has kept a significant distance that there was another candidate who actually traveled simic the russian prime minister video and other top figures in the election campaign he only came in fourth place so actually in modern ukraine following crimea falling don't pass being seen as too friendly to russia is definitely a bit of

a political to boot but he is a new figure he maybe could bring some new energy into direct debates of the kremlin where basically pushing through and putin are at loggerheads and don't seem able willing to talk to each other direct or even in. formats including european powers so the hit there is that potential for a new start but he's not in every hurry to show himself as a friend of russia he there were there was some criticism of the fact that some of his films had been shown in russia and there was some financial relationship there but there is no suggestion here that he is a direct candidate of russia more a problem for him or his links to. a ukrainian all agog who's currently living out of the country who used to own the country's biggest bank and who is one of his biggest enemies speculation there that as a let's get presidency there could be preferential treatment for calm with his businesses so that really has been the main thing the main allegation he's been having to deal with in the past because now you are in the room of course at this

event when the actual election results came in can you tell us a little bit more about the reactions in the room and specifically if you might know the really the reaction that selenski himself that. i'm sorry the line is a bit difficult again but this was an extraordinarily brief appearance here of a high. just as we start the show he was walking past the exit poll came out and just literally spent no more than two or three minutes thanking his team and his coaches there was no detail what his next steps would be no further. where he was going to take his first days with the transition period this is something that is the criticized by journalists in ukraine time time again this is someone who isn't open to difficult probing questioning from journalist someone who prefers to talk to people directors social media in an environment he can control without being questioned or put under pressure and seemingly this is the pattern is going to continue this was an extraordinarily free briefing and just as soon as he

basically had appeared on the stage he was gone again and i'm not even sure we're going to see him again tonight here at this election. thank you very much nic connelly for keeping us up to day nic thank you. now to some of the other stories making news around the world more than seventy thousand people gathered in st peter's square to listen to the pope deliver his traditional easter address in his annual irby obree speech latin for to the city and to the world francis offered a pardon for sins in a reflection on the world's war ravaged region. tripoli's only working airport has reopened after being hit by her strifes airport had been shut down amid two weeks of fighting for the libyan capital forces loyal to strongman khalifa haftar have been unable to break into the city defended by libya's internationally recognized. egyptians are voting for a second day in

media outlets barely report on the issues focusing instead on the numbers of demonstrators the catalyst for the protests was a series of incidents last november which included the beating of an opposition leader. the opposition believes his party paid the attackers the christians around the world or attending church services and praying our next report comes from poland where one priest has found a novel way to encourage people to pray and the day of the year. at first glance woods looks just like any other place you paint up park your car it's fairly cheap and only charges seventy five cents an hour. and this is a private parking lot so you have to pay for it. the first start roche's up or i'd teach. this is also a private parking lot but it's free with god's blessing you can leave your car in the parking lot of the parish of st mary of the perpetual help.

whenever i park here i never forget to pray the rosary is part of our daily life so you can easily to attend how mary used to you go home yesterday had no need to get what i got. the priest does not charge money he requires you to pray in order to park here but parking your car long term comes with the morning the price goes up. in minutes and i charge ten hail marys and for every additional fifteen minutes ten more hell marys. whether stealing your car or later in church motorists can pray where and when they want but no one wants to pray on camera even here in catholic poland. top should end up as a sacred truth that applies to everyone who parks here after all this parking lot belongs to us the church and the priest built it so everyone who parks here should

come inside the church and pray properly and very. much. if someone refuses i say to them don't you even want to pray for your own parents but no one checks sometimes people make jokes and ask where do i kneel then i say you don't have to kneel here. for a priest this parking lot attendant in some cities you have to pray just to find parking and you have to pray after you found a spot. to sudan where the country's ruling military council says it's committed to handing over power to civilian government the military leader general abdel fatah says he will respond within a week to demands for civilian control televised announcement came after further street demonstrations protest organizers have put forward a list of candidates including some military representatives the army has been in control since ousting sudan's longtime leader omar al bashir ten days ago. to the
