less available, we will have a lot of shootings that we certainly wouldn't have the number that ah, the ah, britain and the you condemn russia's parliamentary elections. as the few remaining votes accounted 6 deaths and multiple injuries and the shooting that a university in central russia. the alleged attacker is under arrest one student describes what he saw. my friends and i was standing at the parking lot near the entrance where the gunshots john and sold a shooter, spending 20 meters away with his shotgun. the suspect was arrested by a single police officer who entered the building after we heard about the gunshot. he risked his life trying to stop the man who also find out if i run into the
6:01 pm
building and small person coming down the stairs, the young man pointed the gun at me and find the show. it's tough to that. i fight in return. i run close to and pinned him down. i took away his gun and munition and allies apart from the council, top level defense meeting with britain and threatens to torpedo the use free trade agreement with australia up to washington, london, and cambra, st. packed the sort of major french defense contract taken over by the united states. ah, i live from moscow. this is the international. i'm calling bray with the world news this out. so it's just seems that russell phobia is on the rise again. the u. k. and the european commission dismissing russia's state duper elections as an democratic while alleging suppression of opposition candidates. as of now, just
6:02 pm
a small fraction of the votes, remain to be counted. what we have seen in the case of russia over the last few days in terms of do my elections and also regional elections is that these elections have taken place in an atmosphere of intimidating critical and independent voices. and these elections took place without credible international observation. and we taken all of our independent and reliable sources reporting serious violation during the world. the doom or elections represent a serious step back for democratic freedoms in russia, the measures taken by the russian authorities to marginalize civil society, silence independent media, and exclude genuine opposition. candidates from participating in the elections undermine political plurality and at odds with the international commitments that russia have signed up to. united. russia has almost 50 percent the communists per readily in 2nd place. have 19 and the liberal democrats, 8 percent adjust russia,
6:03 pm
which has merge with 2 smaller parties also has around 7 and a half percent. a new party and the selection new people has just above the 5 percent threshold needed to have a presence in parliament. but these results aren't yet final, they only count for half of the 450 contested seats. as russia also votes for individual candidates, as well as parties. over the course of the 3 day vote, western media ramped up their attacks on russian democracy using any opportunity to discredit the duma vote. here's some of the reaction we've been hearing 2 attacks on the process. this is something that doesn't have to do with the election. so know these are osha phobia that you have in the world. now it's deep inside people of people and somebody's minds they the they want to feel like the so even before starting they are thing. oh, the elections are rig there is a, there is a problem. so i come here as an observer. lots of, of the observers were coming here so we could testify the process. we could be everything working. so i really didn't get gender. this is a problem of agenda,
6:04 pm
even if you have the most transparent elections, the vast selection is ever with them. observing people and changing. i think we should question this kind of agenda, this kind of strategy there is in the world towards russia. i think obviously the west is always a bit nervous with russia and when it comes to elections that shows up. it's certainly not very diplomatic. just i think if one wants to judge the fairness of elections, one should got the maximum amount of information in rob, rob, it seems that this, that hadn't been done. my view is there i elections in russia. that is for the russian people to determine what form of democracy should exist at this country and which parties should govern it. it's not really a matter for the european union for meeting the west elections,
6:05 pm
especially elections in russia is a political process with about the fight for power and not only domestically, it's about the 5 to power internationally. many of those organizations don't hide pretty strong disregard and dislike for the leadership in this country, and therefore they, they use any opportunity to discredit whatever happened here. everything is getting wider and more representative, but obviously they will always be some people who don't like what's happening here simply because they, they see russia as as an evil force. i'm sorry to say that the western partners who are committed to democracy are actually trying to use money today to discredit our elections and democratic procedures. in fact, by lowering the confidence the russian people have in the institutions of democracy . this makes us very sad because we're ready to develop democracy. we're building and developing modern processes and technology. well,
6:06 pm

6:07 pm
a year ago. store, we choose to a couple of problems with how are you feeling the moments and what do you think of the preliminary results? the even the preliminary results are quite impressive for a new party taking part in the federal elections for the 1st time. we feel tremendous supports, it's a huge responsibility. what is especially encouraging is that russians across the world voted for our party. it's amazing enough to 3 v chicata or what are the 3 main things that our foreign viewers should know about your party losing me. but it's kelly and somebody, me, and we represent modern russia, a countries striving to employ common sense in decision making. one that takes a rational approach when considering various issues. the main point is that our party is the voice of the russian regions. the regional agenda is our top priority, and wherever we go, it enjoys people's support. are now joined with pavel andre,

6:13 pm
overnight, the evacuation. while i ran to the main entrance, i asked witnesses where the shooting came from. they said on the 2nd floor i run into the building and so on. on the person coming down the stairs, i shouted to him to put down the weapon. the young man pointed the gun at me and fired a shot. after that, i fired and returned, the young man fell down, i ran close and pinned him down. i took away his gun and ammunition and a knife, and then i began administering 1st aid to him. the person suspected of carrying out the shoot. it is now a hospital where he is understood to be in a critical condition. a local correspondent has the details. so pretty little difficult. everything happened around noon according to the various sources between 11 and 12 o'clock and i saw an unknown person came to the universe grounds. i passed through a checkpoint, there is photo evidence that he started shooting already there. then he went to the main building and open the file that followed him, firing a series of shots inside the building was students, teachers,
6:14 pm
university stuff started jumping out of the windows on the 2nd floor. then lower enforcement officers arrived at the scene as well as ambulance teams. the police did everything to stop the attack of attempt to shoot more people. he's seriously injured, unverified pictures published on social networks, medics administering 1st a to the lead shoot. assistance to the victims is also provided by eye witnesses who at the university at the time of the incident, students, teachers, and university. according to the latest information, the shooter is an 18 year old student of former law students. but this information has yet to be verified in the investigative committee, and that a criminal case has been opened and verified videos, understood to show the suspect, leaving his house and getting into a blue master that would then take him to the university. he has a bag with him that may be big enough to hold a gun. again, we can't confirm whether this video is genuinely off the man full to be responsible
6:15 pm
for the shooting. i believe that the shoot purchased ammunition local guns store last month. this video shows the bottom of the suspect reaches the counter. we spoke to the director of an educational center where the suspect to completed his weapons training. it transpired that the direct, his son was also at the university when the shooting happened. denise that he completed his training in april. it's only an 8 hour program for all types of weapons program does not give permission to buy weapons that comes from the licensing department. have the national guards, complaints, understanding senior committee, the national guard that carries out all checks. the medical commission data is also provided that even the examination is carried out by the national guard inspect, you know, to us. you should also understand that this cannot be foreseen. we cannot look into a person's head into his so that's in my child. call me now. he studies at the university as well and was locked in. one of the rooms was when i found out that
6:16 pm
this beast was studying itself facility. can you imagine how i felt thank god, everything seems to be okay with my child. but all this is very hard for me. of course, i have already brought up all documents on this person, board officials from the russian investigative committee. what among those at the same compiling information on this render attack? here they can be seen photographic evidence and collecting spent counties. eye witnesses were also questioned as forensic specialists examined evidence. kevin, in heard more about the victims from correspondent donald quarter were beginning to see a lot of reports in the media and various media outlets with some initial information about the victims who suffered in this tragic mass shooting. we know that one of the leading medics in the region in which department is located, where the mass shooting took place. it was margarita and house. and unfortunately, she was shot dead by the gunman. she was actually on a tour of the university with her grandchild at the time that happened. so
6:17 pm
definitely a very tragic incident. and we have gotten some international reaction for an officials from sweden and norway have given their condolences to the families that have lost their loved ones in this, in this mass shooting. and we also heard from president vladimir putin. he gave his comment on, on this situation, he called it an enormous calamity for the entire country because you, my condolences cannot drown out the upset of our loss. this is a huge disaster for the entire country, but the law enforces we'll do the best to investigate this terrible crime and find out the reasons for what has happened. both parties will take all necessary measures to help the families of the victims and those injured ones. you'd expect a response that coming from the top very soon on. but of course, president potent spoken about this kind of thing before. it's not the 1st time this has happened in russia's, at least one of my big headlines. it is rare, but he's spoken about it before and they, yeah, absolutely. i mean, i'm sure a lot of people, especially in russia, are watching the tv right now. thinking about probably the last mass shooting that
6:18 pm
took place that took place just this year actually in may in the russian city of cars on back then. the shooter was a 19 year old boy. he was saying things like, he hated everyone around him and he that he said that he was god, he tried to kill himself in the cop car that he was in after he was detained. luckily the police were able to prevent him from doing that. many said he was mentally insane, and the media and people that knew him, the investigative committee has yet to confirm that, but indications are looking that way. let's re revisit those events that transpired in cars on oh, who in
6:19 pm
6:20 pm
another mass shooting that took place, encouraged crimea, back in 2018. that had a lot of parallels to what we just saw in cars on actually just on the screen. the shooter back in 2018 and kurtz was 18 years old, just around the same age as the shooter. and because on who was 19 years old, he was also said to have hated everyone in the school. he went to even, apparently idolized the government from the columbine high school shooting that took place in the 1900 ninety's in the united states. and russian president vladimir putin at that time said that the reason for this was, was most likely a consequence of global ization. he said, and going back to the cause on shooting, not just prudent, but other russian officials as well. this brought them to think more about perhaps tightening the gun laws in russia. maybe that this would be a solution to this, to these a string of shootings. and that has made it up all the way up to the government. duma and the politicians have been talking about it, but it hasn't been passed yet. maybe this,
6:21 pm
this 3rd one could push policy in that direction. okay, how's this for a bit of a fashion flow power a high profile democrats attempt to dress too impressed with some awareness, raising could sure appears to have come apart at the seams. lawmaker, alexandria casio, cortez was white dress emblazoned with tax, the rich, one of new york swankiest events, fancy, looked simply iconic. others, though spotted a tinge of hypocrisy, is all the congresswoman had to say about the dresses designer and its message. and what we wanted to do is to bring that representation here in an institution like the metropolitan museum, the met, sorry. and this is aurora. james, 1st time at the met with a design of hers, a migrant, a migrant woman, a working woman from a working family. but he is the awkward bet the tax. the rich dress designers company has been accused of not paying some of its own taxes. new york state has
6:22 pm
reportedly followed 3 warrants, alleging that designer, aurora james's firm, had withheld about $15000.00 in income taxes. here's how the internet reacted to that. with the alright, let's talk out to legal media and left line all. hi again line. all i know this sounds a little bit like a case of do as i say, not as i do, but i have $15000.00 in back taxes. that road is not the same as the target of this dress, which is the big corporations that send them money on a well tool without paying dues for the but not for me.
6:23 pm
look, nobody is going to enforce any of this. and remember, her message is tax the rich, nothing about paying or taxes, just just tax them. let me see if i can cut through this. alexandria castillo cortez years ago was sandy cor, jazz who was created out of whole cloth. she became a socialist democrat, democratic socialist, the darling of the left. and she is the most important person. and i want you to understand this in destroying the democratic party. she is to the left of the left of the left, but not only left that we can handle. it's an incoherent left. it's left that doesn't make any sense. it's about shibboleths and instagram's and hash tags,
6:24 pm
but no absolute commitment to anything. she is responsible for causing a fracture, a schism if you will, in the democratic party between the hardliners, if you will, nancy pelosi and others to big money person and his child. by the way, please note nobody is wearing a mask as a big deal here. nobody of the of the of the glamour righty or whatever glitter roddy are wearing a mask. that's all they live for. these people live for nothing but bad cleaning cards and mask then you're going to kill me. but yet look at them. none of them do this and let me also tell you what you're seeing right now. the met gala. this might be the last time you've ever seen this. this is dying on the vine. this is and then that green is. this is the last chance that society gets to put on wearing this aluminum foil. i mean, this is video, but it's still
6:25 pm
a side room and i'm sorry, please are going to say if it either like i say a few people are wrangled by the fact. you know, it's a $35000.00 entrance ticket to get into something like the med gala. but as you say, we're in an instagram generation dresses golf balls looking at it. people are sharing it. it's getting newspaper column inches showed is walking down the street nude. you want to try that. and let me also suggest to you that she is. there are now ethics complaints that have been filed and you know where that's going nowhere . she can do whatever she wants. let me also go back, go back and research the head of black lives, matter, black lives matter. this mysterious organization were all of the millions and billions went look at the the people in that hierarchy where they got their money in big houses. i mean, let me tell you was going to happen. nothing, nothing will happen. there will be no tax enforcement. now. if this were donald
6:26 pm
trump, donald trump incorporated his daughter, his son, his son in law. any any corporate, anything he ever did, he would be, they would demand tax records and it wouldn't, he would be. and david, this goes to show you the double standard. but here's the good news. what you're seeing right now is like looking at a star that burned out a 1000000 years ago, but the light hasn't hit us yet. this is the last gas i was was want glamour. this was the last. you're not going to see this and happen the people by the way, here's something to look at. the number of folks of the big shot, the real a listers who never showed up because of vaccine requirements and the like and who never got a vaccine. you're not going to see that list. look at these people look at that, walking around in the worst pandemic in the history of human kind and their breathing and coffee. while the underlings who have to, you know, open their,
6:27 pm
you get, i mean, this is, this is john. it's fun to talk about, but it just choke, go. well, i know i never thought we'd be in a position where we'd be discussing culture on the wrong way. but here we are. 2021, live better off, or i would like to get to talk to you again. thanks for joining us in the future. thank you. next, the europe in commission president has described the treatment of france by 3 non a you countries as unacceptable not followed australia or abruptly ditching and existing multi $1000000000.00 submarine contract with paris in favor of the united states as a new security pact between camera london and washington was revealed. frances responded with a cancellation of top level events with the u. k as isa riley explains. the french defense ministry cancelling. summit was due to be held a bilateral summit with the bridge. we understand that there were reports of florence, paula, who is the french defense minister, personally called for that meeting to be council. the british side are denying it.
6:28 pm
they say that this is merely a postponement. it's not a cancellation of that meeting. the french side haven't commented on those reports yet, but that it all comes, of course, as tensions continue, higher is losing out on billions in contracts supply. the latest announcement of a new license, if you will, between the u. k. the united states and australia, part of that is the analysis of a multi $1000000000.00 submarine deal. the only snag is australia had already agreed to deal with the french, according to paris and that they have now renee, going on that deal. and some of the was coming out from the french side really harsh when it comes to their view of events, saying that when 2 sides reach an agreement, they must stick to that word. keeping one's word is the condition of trust between democracies and between allies. so it is unthinkable to move forward on trade
6:29 pm
negotiations as if nothing had happened with a country in which we no longer trust. now, part of the political fallout continues as a result of this is the decision by the french government. recall it some back to the, to both the united states and australia and the french foreign minister john eve, ledger the on again outlining the deep sense of anger in paris over these developments. there was a lie, there was duplicity. there was a major breach of trust in there was disdain. so things are not going well between us, not at all. it means that there is a crisis, so we cannot play like this between allies and when you have an ally, you don't treat it in such a brutal and unpredictable way don't. so there is really a crisis to put to play masses, was the wikileaks publishing group have released the number of documents exposing american conduct towards france during the 2012 elections in france.
6:30 pm
and thoughts of these documents show an intention on the part of the cia to conduct infiltration of some of the political parties taking plot. now again, all of this comes against the backdrop of those ties between america and some of its closest allies, already strained between the manner and the chaos in the manner in which may so lead by the u. s. history from afghanistan already many french and other continental european powers, calling for europe to go its own way when it comes to military affairs. and these types of developments with a seemingly the anglo phone world sticking together will do nothing to make those ties any stronger that you news for now, daniel hawkins has your next update in half an hour. ah .
