a story of the opposition candidate rejected on monday. the worst thing is the growth of the film we don't agree with the results we have absolutely contradictory information we have official protocols from many polls stations where the number of votes in my favor a many times that for another candidate. we're gathering proof or falsification and we have people who are ready to confirm fraud at poll stations. in the. story it's on the board. others had already demanded a different narrative on sunday night. and this was the capital minsk after the big result was announced. they knew they were taking a risk the president had warned them. that just follow the
6:08 pm

outsiders were not impressed by the russian democracy. but obvious that since 25 years we haven't seen tree and elections until i was at all but i think not any election before has been as much fake this one i think that it's a clear fake election that you cannot call an election. feel sorry to use we're not ruling with consent on sunday night the gap between look at shanghai's reality and that of many of his people would seem to be widening. for more on this let's bring in belorussian journalist and analyst friend of the at sharjah phrenic welcome to the show the election commission says look i think a one around 80 percent of the vote how credible is this result. it's ridiculous it's impossible and this elections are unprecedented and time so harmful such occasions we didn't allow international observers neither russia nor
6:10 pm
western and they arrested the majority in the form of servers some of service were just trying to count them out of the. number of voters for a visit in the stations and even the police of service weird to think so the police complaint is is a circus in and don't have anything in common with the real elections and i'm understanding that people who are protesting the right now in minsk in the regions because they feel cheated so they if you upset and they feel frustrated. at let's talk a little more about these people that took to the streets all over bellerose to protest the election results what do you make of the way the police have responded to the demonstrators. i think aloose did use on proportional force the words protestors most of them were peaceful they didn't bring any weapons and they didn't talk with the policeman and the result police did use water cannon
6:11 pm
so guns. didn't use gas or spray grimly it's more than 50 people are wounded in jordan several of them are in critical condition right now and more than 3000 people tain't that's unprecedented in those history and and i think the question please must be really scary here to him when he behaves like a priest know the real of we know of popular votes of wouldn't behave such. as such harshly towards his or her opponent and today actually look i think a vowed to crack down on those challenging their results but does the opposition in valerie's have any choice but to simply accept the outcome as announced by the government. i will never accept a who's lost due to woman he doesn't like women if he doesn't believe whom and become the fall of tissue or his major opponent is 37 years old room and. language
