11:20 pm
hello again as the spot clock is the kremlin just one in the morning this is a rather chilly march morning when should be going to the pool hall marks the day off to the big vote below from covering over the nicaea remember that special coverage of what's going on with the presidential election continues live from this great vantage point in red square right next door to the crowd in the state of russian power yes the polling stations have closed across russia and must be nuts to purse sized election spawning even eleven time zones across the seventeen million square kilometers of territory and i'm going to logistics the people who
11:21 pm
are most of the vote so i've already been counted here all the preliminary results if you're just joining us i'm in first place surprised at results given the amount of the. approach it with seventy six percent a full time to go back and twenty twelve probable do from with coleman to be in the second with twelve point five percent good place to look good measure and all that through all the political scene for me l b p the liberal democratic club the only six percent so called normal the vote counted people had to have that seat with a h.q. to address the crowd of supporters that i'm approaching gave a speech like homesteads that mocked for years that since crimea as we unification it with rochelle correspondent just going to go once again not to be crass. but it was march eighteenth of course is an important day for a number of reasons here in russia say of course of the presidential election but it's also the anniversary of the reunification with great media it was four years
11:22 pm
ago today that the treaty was signed green card mia back under the umbrella of the russian federation and this concert was organized commemoration of that just a stone's throw from red square star after star came on stage and sing a famous dogs with everyone singing along and danced. but of course the main event was president putin himself he came out just after it was announced that he had officially one and this is the first time he spoke after that announcement the crowd was extremely excited to see him and he of course came out on surprising with a huge smile on his face but he had a very good message for those who are here talking about unifying russia even coming together with those who may have voted for other candidates he also talked about the the work that needs to be done going forward for now and he also thinks everyone for coming out despite the cult's night but nobody really seems to mind among the dancing the singing and drinking hot tea that's being sold around the kid square and the square has been packed tonight i can't tell you to go that is but there are thousands of people packed in the square enjoying the concert.
11:23 pm
and that's where of course not too far from where i was done all that went up. to russia russia they said after speaking to the crowd there is celebrations of crimea as reunion with him went to his h.q. what journalists were eager to ask him about the challenges he'll face in his next term because. latin or putin has just made an appearance here at he's headquarters and then held a short press conference and the first question he was asked was about the screwball case about the poisoning of a russian over a former russian double agent in great britain and the blame for the poisoning is being widely pin the only russia and even putin personally his house lattimer putin responded to those allegations. the first thing that comes to my mind is that had this been a military poison the people affected would have died immediately this is obvious
11:24 pm
the second thing is that there are no such substances in russia we destroyed all our chemical weapons as monitored by international inspectors and we did this first unlike some of our partners who promised to do the same but didn't fulfill their. promise we are ready for cooperation and general i think anyone with common sense understands that it's nonsensical for russia to do such a thing before the election and the world cup it's just crazy is another announcement that came rather unexpected from vladimir putin was when he was asking a question whether or not whether he will be planning to run the six years from now in the next presidential election well it's a long long time from now of course but what lattimer putin did he hinted that this could be his final term as the leader of russia have a listen but yanukovych at the moment i'm not planning any constitutional changes with skates because i was more than just do you think you will be in the
11:25 pm
presidential seat until twenty thirty or that of course if you change the constitution if you don't have to really through this mission which i think what you're saying is laughable i'm not going to stay there until i turn one hundred so there you go he also talked about he's a cabinet appointments about the potential shifts in the russian government he said that all of those will be announced after the inauguration now in general the mood here remains festive of course and we talked to some of the complaint coordinators and off camera they told us that sort of they've been aiming at the victory from the outset but the intrigue and the challenge for them was to have lattimer putin pass the seventy percent support mark and judging by the results we have right now they succeeded it was a job well done on their part now also of course in terms of voter turnout the these elections have been spectacular not only the whole of russia voted the cross
11:26 pm
all eleven time zones but also we've seen huge queues of people abroad in italy the czech republic thailand and many many other countries around the world to even cosmonauts at the i said there you had their chance to cuss. which the course so. the largest in russia's history but certainly closer to the top mark and right now we doesn't look like there is a force the town scope lattimer putin from spending the next six years as russia's president. all of the presidential candidates have cost that palace today and here are some of the highlights from. the a leisurely. little earlier looks. a
11:27 pm
little early. for lips a few thank you. to be completely. honest and one hundred forty five countries the old out of bounds the globe russians were able to vote in local embassies and consulates there was no peace for some people but i mean patiently waited to have the best day and best at election to some voters who come from a whole world away right above our heads who fought one russian cosmonaut in orbit didn't want to miss out so to just select a person. who is safe to say one hundred percent turnout on the international space station go around the on a few unexpected voters from our course to check with. such
11:28 pm
and such. feats. the. course. russian citizen there lived here for a was he was in his boat earlier on we like to get the opinion as many different people as possible we've bought you experts now we've got observers nobel all concho american businessmen in moscow is lived there for a long time there i say works you don't look that old so you look at it look here since the one nine hundred seventy s.
11:29 pm
you've seen the companies go into this place the elections that have come and gone but let's talk from the russian federation has set up these presidential elections what do you make of this this set the build up to it the vote and the result in a nutshell i think it was largely expected but one thing that i haven't heard too much of is that yes he ran a slip which in ran as an independent but it's also his legacy time so we're looking forward to or think or rather surprising next six years we're all a lot of what has been built up will be coming together. economically. diplomatically. and i think that russia will be seen as being defined as a professional player on the global fabric stage he or. something like that we're off for so whilst we're expecting any major economic changes in fact putin
11:30 pm
doesn't share this small town are well major so it's a loaded word economic change it's positive economic change yes within the parameters of the global economic system i think. you know what one can predict everything but it's fixed. trend toward two dollars ration will continue and not just russia but russia soon the flagship of this. we've been doing business here now for decades is this the toughest time since you've been here to do business as a foreign business when you get your trip so many sanctions going on russia's heavily under sanctions relationships a rocky strain between america and russia don't even talk about britain at the moment as a businessman how does it make you for straighted are you hoping for better or for a straight as you're over your people who've been doing business in this market frustration. part of why are so one gets over the.
