you mean over the top here because you spend less when you opposable i'm going. to flow but not for the room. was a small even later one you would assume that if you ask any politician any presidential candidate around the world if he or she would be happy with that kind of disappointing result you'd expect the answer no in a vast majority of cases but saying yourself told me in an exclusive live interview a few hours ago she doesn't see it that way course it's not the result i would dream about but my campaign was not a result my complaint was about talking truth on the distinct channels of federal t.v. in russia this result is higher than of any other liberal candidate and that makes the platform for rhenish and if we take your result the result of good for you beats me and mr t.

tough as well and add them together still i think that's just under five percent so is there much room for improvement here and are you hoping to improve in the near future education is the most important value of my program education of russian people of telling them truth about the situation they leave in trying to make them and just stand the collection between their level of life and corruption that is there in the contrary the only real way to make this five percent growing to fifty one percent is to make people understand this connections after the debates with alexy nobody that you're just a few hours ago are you confident and that kind of future for a so-called united opposition bloc i'm very disappointed by the discussion because i came there to discuss all future six years with putin and how we will fight with me but in stand we were discussing k.v. in my insta. which is ridiculous to my way what is your maybe adjective or you

adjectives that you can use or some other words to describe this it's a success of freedom of speech and this is our most important success during this campaign was the vote itself mean we should be realistic about this huge amount of support of putting this result well maybe it would be not seventy five percent but sixty eight or whatever the steel we should meet that the majority or now really want this president now not all votes is a broadway able to cast their ballots in ukraine russian citizens were blocked from voting by local police and russian consulates in several ukrainians to see if there were also planets have they gave russia's presidential election all over ukraine for example anti election protesters exit russian consulate general building in yes there were also protests in kharkov. and we contacted several international

organizations asking for. the organization for security and cooperation in europe called back to west but simply said it's a matter of bilateral relations between the two countries. so under forty thousand observers were ensuring that ballots were cast without any problems and that the voting procedures were properly conducted over fifteen hundred of the observers of foreigners which is a record for the presidential election in russia we had two of them in here tonight to give their views the vast majority of poles set up with cameras to stream everything online easy to do these days comparatively previous were using them to monitor any possible violations in but there was least one says this video shows members of the electoral commission stuffing ballot boxes probably this took place in a city near moscow the central electoral commission is the employees involved and said obviously those ballots cast no particular bow. it will not be counted we discussed

the election with us a observers that came in the studio here as well european ones and whether they witnessed themselves any violations i can say that they didn't see any violation maybe i was too short a time there but i don't i don't think that any by the asians were visible so we wanted to see how it works we were particularly interested very much in the transmission lines which you so i see here all the very high level we. can follow and to introduce the system so this was it was it was worth what we were very much interested in we have some team in moscow in cologne. sent. rust off and. the return is everything was normal everything was normal we discuss about the process in the putting station and everything is neat little bit like in france for example even maybe more because for example i saw in many places some care out to control we don't have that in france and. if you if you can accept.

some private impression i never saw so many. young children for the family who are voting no it was honestly a clear entry and. in my opinion. well we spoke to several experts on the outlook for president putin's forced term in office they told us modernization of the country and maintaining russia's leading role in the world will be among his priorities he has a powerful mandate it is not entirely clear what to be planning to do we had the state of the nation speech in the first two thirds on domestic social policy economic policy echoed many of the concerns of the liberal you're foremost with it is not a mobilization agenda so while he talked very tough recently the western economies with reaction i think there is a plan quite clearly for a modernization agenda that's quite important we've already announced decreases in

the military budget and i think he wants to emphasize more education health care and infrastructure development those are areas that need to be addressed special out in the regions and i firmly believe that's going to be one of his agenda items as well he wants to bridge the gap i think bridge the gap that special with the e.u. and promote it continued growth and improvement in relations and also with china as well looking forward to it thank you rather surprising next six years where a lot of what has been built up will be coming together economically diplomatically russia will be seen as being defined as a professional player on the growth of the magic stage rather than something like the reruns so barbara. will communist party candidate pavel gruden in who's also the boss of a former soviet farm is set to finish second overall artie's kellam open followed

the voting for the party's h q. we did hear from the communist candidate in the aftermath of preliminary results and he seemed somewhat disappointed when he spoke to the media yes it's obvious that the vote counts and the whole election procedure was not. when all the votes will be counted we'll make a decision one thing is clear despite all the that's being thrown a bounce we process election with dignity i want to thank all the people who voted for our program i hope that the person who when will make the relevant conclusions we need to change the economic and political situation in our country and turn to the left when good done and was named as the candidate it was noted he was an interesting choice now he is the head of the lenin farm co-operative which is a cooperative farm that produces strawberries among other products and it provides a much higher standard of living in wages for the workers in it and furthermore it provides health care and education for the children of those who work at the lead

and cooperative farm now as we wait the final count it is interesting to note that rudin and did promise that if you did not receive a solid fifteen percent of the vote that he would actually shave his mustache is iconic mustache a key part of his image so i'm sure that his supporters are anticipating the final results and seeing if that solid fifteen percent will come in or not. well the last votes are still being counted and turner appears to be higher than expected let me putin's campaign chief says that rises to to the u.k. and its ranch into the poisoning case artie's longer correspondent pretty boy has the details. now percent higher than we expected thanks to great britain another time to count the russian mentality we want pressure became time to mobilize every time russia indiscriminately founded leave blame the one thing

russians do is unite around. that's why thanks to britain it contributed to turnout we didn't even dream of there hasn't been that much talk about it to be honest because it's been overshadowed by an altogether more dramatic affair the script piled poisoning and the high tensions in the now the diplomatic standoff between the u.k. and russia and just what putin's campaign manager was saying there is that that may have galvanized the vote in russia well it looks like it may have galvanized the vote here in london as well there's a huge russian population in london and the turnout at the russian embassy where you could cast your ballot was also much higher than usual there were queues of up to one hour for russians head to cost their ballots around two to three hundred people according to some estimates lining up on the pavement outside the russian embassy just waiting to get in and cast their vote and that enthusiasm could have

something to do with the way that this script out poisoning has been covered here it's been weighing heavily on the minds of members of the russian community in the run up to the vote they've been talking about it a lot there was also a protest outside the embassy the exiled businessman and putin critic you can he was out there greeting those keen to cast their ballot with banners and t. putin clearly he's not keen on a large made putin four point zero the newspaper coverage here in the u.k. has been. it's been very critical of putin it's very much conveyed the message that his reelection was inevitable in the run up to this vote it hasn't taken out many column inches in the sunday papers this is page seven of one of the broadsheets and it's talking about putin's reelection as president being inevitable

there's another one here also page seven talking about the russian state mobilizing to ensure a huge win for putin so a lot of articles now talking about there being pressure exerted on the people of russia to vote because vladimir putin putin needed a high turnout in order to ensure legitimacy for this presidency to look legitimate but really most of the papers have been focusing on this you've got something like this may stands up to putin the diplomatic fallout the tensions over the square power poisoning and all the sorts of perceived threats coming from russia as a result you can see caricature up on your screen of the way that vladimir putin has been presented in the press have really quite vilified almost unanimously hair and this kind of new cold war rhetoric over the spy poisoning may have galvanized

the people or the russians in london to go out and cost that vote. well as we heard earlier the youngest can do that is thirty six year old hassan your subject it's her first foray into politics well vladimir zhirinovsky is the oldest the first time the seventy one year old run for president was back in one thousand nine hundred ninety one in the soviet union and here's a look at what the twenty eighteen candidates were doing back in the early ninety's . the red superpowers days a number of changes in the air. some of the future candidates seize the opportunity to start testing out the political waters and the crumbling states. well this man needs no introduction although he did back then with his spine days behind

the wild ninety one pitch and some petersburg or rather leningrad as it was back then working as an advisor for the northern capitals mayor anatoly sobchak if he were usually able to restore the future relationship. and he's got some harsh words for the commies and you can surely do this to you it is what you would not order to it is all the same the insurance you know the free expression really looked at there was a resolution to be there you know you. don't you do it you're. just a little. over to the minute if to leave. it there are lots of pictures of putin and his boss anatoly sobchak from that time do they are walking and laughing and posing with a gun and if the name subject sounds familiar you've just it he's the daddy of another nominee trying to get into the kremlin this year back then sr is your average politician is kid giving his thoughts on cultural events in the city to

gushing reporters. latest opinion lack of a turn. in a prestigious school and playing with putin's daughter in front of the cameras. these two future nominees are at the epicenter of political life and their careers are really taking off but in three years eleven is you're not going to political nobody to presidential candidate but he said yes me on the floor also gives a very short enough word to stay on for news a number of us government on a number of machine the international anxiety over that kind of rhetoric will come a bit later with the first big win for zhirinovsky party at the time economist grigory yavlinsky is a lot more of a media darling he's best known for his market make of a plan to introduce the soviet economy to such radical ideas as private property and the free market all in just five hundred days but no action is taken and he quits deciding to go it alone in the world of politics. yavlinsky was actually

inside the white house during the failed coup attempt when communist hardliners tried to overthrow the reform minded gordy. one of our future candidates still is totally clear of politics in the ninety's the communists dark course have all demon at this point he's quite happy to run a state farm named after lenin he'll go on to make millions. about him it appears he is already receiving congratulations from world leaders so far the heads of serbia bolivia and venezuela have sent messages but artie's washington correspondents miracleman says the reaction in the us media has been skeptical. russia's election has finally come to an end with president putin winning over seventy three percent of the vote and the communist party candidate winning second place now there are many russians who voted in the u.s. and they expressed concern over the process in the us and we start off with the

russian ambassador comments who said that he had hoped that the u.s. would take interest in the various acts of provocation that took place during early voting in the u.s. and he also said that some people even received threats but upon receiving word of president putin's when both the mainstream media and american politicians attempted to deal of russia's political process well the washington post called sunday's vote in the new york times wasn't so far off calling it a hollow election and even compared it to the soviet days where there was just one name on the ballot c.n.n. did the same going as far as to compare him to joseph stalin but no reactions from the white house yet but several tweets from your favorite anti russian officials senator mccain took to twitter to discredit putin's victory calling it a sham and going on to say quote the u.s. stands with all russians yearning for freedom which is interesting because prior to the election putin managed to maintain over an eighty percent approval rating but

despite running against multiple candidates representative adam schiff said that putin only won because he banned his opponents from running a saying quote it's easy to win when you bar your opponents from running but besides the usual is a whistleblower edward snowden had some words regarding a ballot stuffing that allegedly took place saying that it's quote an effort to steal the influence of one hundred forty plus million people snowden also urged russian citizens to quote demand justice demand laws and courts that matter take your future back and just a little reminder edward snowden was granted political asylum in russia and that's where he's been ever since now i'm sure that the west will continue to react to putin's victory and we'll be bringing you more of that. well commentators we spoke to earlier told us whether the western media is painting an accurate picture of the elections presumptive when. all the authors had been sure that we did well we saw

the major question was what is next because this is his last tour and everybody had been interested he didn't want to issues he will always do it he's lost or whether he will go for the c. research for whether he will be more active with the foreign balls and things like that so almost all of the foreign media concerned about the future of the western press does not want to say that the russian people support president bush in europe which they do not want to see that is the most popular politician in russia they do not want to say that just foreign policy robust foreign foreign policy. that acts in support of russian seven rights of russian rights around the world instead the focus is on we solicit peculations against russia the focus of what is on provocation such as the so-called. if there has been reaching in the great britain and in the west in the west during the last week i think the american media

. is in a very much of a cold war mindset it's a little frightening to me it's partly frightening because many of the people who were so critical of the cold first cold war are now the cheerleaders for the second cold war so if you turn on the american media you don't see what i consider more balanced portrait of flattery or putin. well meanwhile there were a variety of emotions on display at the poles with quite a range of characters coming to cost the boat from a one hundred year old french heiress to cross to tearful children hoping to meet the candidates. was. a short.

cut. to. the woman. for more on these election stories and plenty about the news think website. for the latest headlines at the top of the hour. i don't. want to do as you

know but i live. i missed almost no. no no. that had four of them but let's run through ten of them. now. and then yes we did one you know that one man and your you know enough for you. how is that done. with because that means he didn't seem pretty high. most of them one thing about being targeted by this more the boys so this is when they deal with.

maybe you don't look to me yes or. are you. as on mine. again you. just then. you know. i don't know why i moved the problem that big people being equal to all because someone come on to the know me this in these in these i have need i go to have school fees. and they take the kids. welcome i give them a good for the middest mean i was been welcome they go get ahead like i

tried to the five am where your nephew can get ten. still. say that's a new word about it was. you know was the only thing that we. didn't know how much did you know why you ask. god to. let you know how. it is. that is what we do we see you know this money was. the best idea. and this is what is that it. was and that was it and he met that yes that was a no no. yes and i don't want to one's. too close enough ones are let down

one mother tonight stop the definitions you know i'm bad and me. when seeking out a new. south south. i want to go why me. and their assets got to get so many i'll just mind you count. on it is truly we come once and we lose only to our last and it is mourning because this is too hard the kind of work i know that my mother loves you that. if i did that one of the i really wanted. you to give up that. rises up and says there was no need. to see it it would be the data to support it to me just.

how. close the young would be to one of the boys he was going to let me know when i beach. south well now i do. not know no i think. i do want to know what i need to know me or you don't know me as i went in for my fun for right now we have we've heard quite a number of leads and believe that one of them either you know is that when a young man you seem to take to the by it's a very hates you he's too leaps with. you feels like he's clist. you feel. that michelle's are not the young ladies who are like the house for many partners in their lives so they tend to think that this was a practicing secondary infertility so best deal intoxicate it feels when you snip

to me that's for sure according to the young man it feels like just a little five should be little bit communities or. some of the people who believe that when a stick to the shore and you walk past me walk past by us for sure if you go and sleep with another grand lake the cost is quite. i want to pay them a good scheme you get what you did you get. what you pay for that they did he get you for that he get. you. i guess because you have been like that. was. my next guest doing it for me i love this that you know

better than when you first know he took you find it he's going to help keep going to play he's going to eat you out when he's young will let you go no one and i. know. like india. was between fifty to eighty eight to find one flavius she can only do the job on stilts the one place then you must know of the physical scars and it can be to keep you from. what was yes out. was. i did do you think you know i'm sorry i'm sorry. you

you. feel . when you talk of whole total control we still have blocks books we have young women or ordered ladies or that old grannies can march for though because of insecurity and begin to believe about point. this out there is so many cases when you. ask you think that's what god may do to you some people say oh i was i was a have been betrayed by six people by the people. and school later. my love days are two there's a very. good chance that if they did that it. was

difficult to prove. this and they were always where you're sure that it. was that they will still say to me as it should to me it took years. to play around with generalistic and wonder if this there should be a book. extolling coming. mostly not the fact that their front seat was there so it's just i don't believe that i'm actually still. looking for the first folio is a great christmas present it's a trip to the. paper today people think they think they're one of the world are full of yeah i. think this is due to oral culture live below i don't live again i must of been

there life and come from this one skin businesses that they do and most of them depend on the dental and dump sites and also almost all be made using part of. the founding. self may be engaging in crime or even other. places that are not. suffer terribly may be. you know. i mean by the least they're. fascinated. by.
