at the amount of money that is being spent on russians, inflammation. and when you put against it, how much money we are spending on come from russian is inflammation. russians are spending us like big time and we are not talking $10.00 to $1.00. we are talking more like several $100.00 to $1.00 that was younger. kolinski speaking with this earlier turkey is holding elections this month and the poll suggests that president, richard, how you appear to one is more vulnerable than ever after being in power for more than 20 years. he's being blame for the countries chronic inflation, which now stands at 50 percent. and for his government slow response to february's devastating earthquakes, more than 50000 people were killed. hundreds of thousands of buildings collapsed over seriously damaged millions of people were left homes, idea, money, and air to one electoral stronghold and one of the cities worst hit by the disaster d w's corresponded. you'll johan reports. now

a future that they will get the real help. they need and not just empty promises during an election campaign. were joining me now is osler, i didn't touch, but she's a visiting fellow at brookings at to washington based. how but policy think tank, it's good to have you on the program. let me start by getting your opinion on president air to once a botched earthquake response. is that response? is it going to be the deciding factor in this election? good to be here and on the well, i think your reporter touched upon one of the key issues in the selection to slow response to earthquake, but voters are also reacting to turkey's terrible economic situation. sometime last year, we turkey had triple digit inflation. food prices are officially inflation around
9:16 pm
50 percent, but unofficially, you know, by independent watchdogs, it's measured in triple digits. so i and then you how you also have the fact that everyone has been empowered for 20 years can no longer connect with younger people . he's offering a particular vision for turkey. make turkey great again, very much focused on turkey's home growing defense industry tanks and new aircraft carrier, you know, military might. but then again, you also have a segment of the population that is seeing a disconnect between what president ardon is offering in the news. a new imperial vision and their daily lives is effects young people, this effect secularists, but increasingly urban middle class from all different ideological backgrounds, including some conservatives, urban conservatives for a disgruntled unhappy about the direction of the country,
9:17 pm
held out whatever happened this election president ardon, whether he wins or not, he is facing an anti ardon majority, and i think this is an important point. okay, that's an important point to the person who would like to replace or to one. describe him for our audience, for people, perhaps you don't fall with turkish politics. oh, so i used to be a journalist and had the opportunity to get to know both men and no to a man can be part of the report. and kim, i coached r o lou is a, is a soft spoken former, as in former civil servant used to be work at the read the head of the social security division. he is 74 years old. sort of a thoughtful social democrat. not a man who is known for his machismo or his sort of tough for tactics when it comes to politics, but he's not positioning himself as the next down to one. and i think that is also
9:18 pm
very important. he's basically saying, look, i am a transition figure, i uniter. this is a big tent. this is a big coalition, and i can guide this county until we return to rule of law and democracy. the big point, the sales pitch of the session is democracy. what it sounds like, you're just, you're describing him as maybe turkey's version of joe biden, who promised to take the united states out of the trump error. is that what he's doing? i'm going to take you out of the year to one error. that's exactly what it is. that's exactly what it is. he is leading a coalition that has different political parties. it's a coalition of 6 parties and is externally backed by the kurdish party pro garnished party. so you have people who come from a different ideological strains and he's basically saying, i am a uniter,
9:19 pm
this is a big tent, it's turkeys you by the moment, or we're going to see whether it's turkey is ready for is joe biden movement. and i think the and on a different level, you know, opposition parties have agreed to bring the country back to law and parliamentary system. and as such, a good girl who is a transition figure, let me ask you before we run out of time quickly. if president 01 loses, will he accept defeat? i think it will and some analysts or journalist might tell you he never will accept defeat. i happen to disagree with this, although i don't have the crystal ball. obviously if it's very close neck and neck, there will be a contested elections and you know, present on might ask for a recount into a ball sanara or don't know if this is
9:20 pm
a significant enough lead one poor percent or 2 percent or even bigger for the opposition, president, i don't, will accept it will accept it because he's a man who's built his entire legitimacy on elections the ballot. i think he came, he would not be able to mobilize a sort of a bureaucratic response to defy the balance of the results. so we will definitely be following and see what happens when those results come in. i mean taskbar, we appreciate your time and your insights tonight. thank you. thank you. the president of robert balls governing body has demanded that european broadcasters pay a what more for the tv rights for this years, women's cup woke up in australia and new zealand. then they have offered so far gianni and 15 of threatened that otherwise they will not be able to televised the tournament in the continents 5 big its markets, england, germany, france,
9:21 pm
spain and italy. women's football has been growing wildly in popularity. but according to v for president johnny infant tino fans and the top 5 european markets might not be able to watch this year's world cup unless broadcasters pay up . he called their offers for tv rights, a slap in the face of the players and all women world wide broadcast, especially public broadcasters, funded by tax payers. money should put their action behind that was because they rightfully criticize a football organizations or either sports organizations for not paying equally. women and men are not having the same prize money. well, we need to generate these revenues and they should help us because otherwise we'll simply not sell these rights at these undervalued prices to them. and her, well,
9:22 pm
the european public will not be able to watch the women's world cup, which after the success of the last tournament in france after successful, the euro would be really, really a pity. in the past tv rights for the women's world cup were bundled as an extra with the men's rights. but infant tina said, fif and now needs to earn more from broadcasters. in order to finance the money. it's committed to players and teams, which has tripled since the last world cup. if an agreement can't be reached, it could be a real blow to the women's game. just when it's more popular than ever. question for you, what is the deadliest animal to humans? not talking about wyant's bears are great. why charge? no, i'm talking about the mosquito. the diseases that mosquitoes carry kill hundreds of thousands of people every year. now, a promising method for fighting transmission is ramping up for launch in brazil,
9:23 pm
and it involves a surprising starting point. breeding billions of mosquitoes then releasing them into the wild to help prevent the spread of viral diseases the insects can carry. at 1st it sounds counter intuitive, but that's exactly what the non profit world mosquito program is planning to do. soon. in brazil, on a large scale in partnership with a research institution called feel crews. the idea involves infecting mosquitoes with a bacteria known as well. bach yeo, this bacteria, when it's in the mosquito, prevents viruses that cause disease and humans from being able to replicate in a mosquito which they need to do to be able to be transmitted between people. voted legal law dandy chicken grim yes. yellow fever, they're all impeded by the presence of this natural current directory. cultural back here. a number of studies have shown that releasing will vakio,
9:24 pm
infected mosquitoes into existing wild populations really can significantly lower the transmission of dangerous pathogens. like those that cause, dang, yay or zika. and the method has advantages compared to others. you only have to do it was if you using insecticides, for example, you have to spray them ever get to control the mosquitoes that are method you do it once. and then the bacteria stays in the mosquitoes and maintains itself, and so you get ongoing protection for people without the need for reallocation. it's a tutor that's present in almost 65 percent of the effects of the words. so it's a factor that's already in the environment. that's because more vakio, infected mosquitoes also pass the bacteria along to their offspring. so in theory, at least this system is self sustaining. the technology has been deployed and around a dozen countries over the last 10 years with promising results. in some places,
9:25 pm
it's dramatically lowered transmission of viral diseases without any apparent adverse consequences for people or the environment. but in brazil, there are still some open questions. if we see indonesia, the, the, we see a very significant reduction on it for a mission, but we don't see the same in the real regarding banking and shipping when it was mission. so understanding why these strategy works less in real in brazil then in indonesia, i think it's critical. brazil has one of the highest rates of infection for dangly fever and the world slated for completion and 2020 for a major facility there will breed will back year. infected mosquitoes on a very large scale to slow transmission of the tropical disease that will be dispersed from cars, motorcycles and drones. with targeting and production level of $100000000.00
9:26 pm
mosquitoes a week, which is the equivalent of 5000000000 to year. and that's just sort of numbers, we need to be implementing programs across multiple present in city, single, tennessee. but even if the method proves effective country wide in brazil, experts one that on its own, it won't spell the end of all mosquito borne diseases and other measures like vaccine development will remain an important piece and a public health care puzzle for many years to come and finally, some of the biggest stars in fashion and entertainment gathered in new york for the met gala this year honoring the late fashion icon. karl lagerfeld tindy's sported looks that reflected his aesthetic actor jared letter dressed up as the designer's cat's meow and retired in his star serena williams. there she is used for a moment on the red carpet to announce her 2nd pregnancy. busy lady annual ball as
