with all the latest details from the place the white presidential candidates are fighting for the kremlin states you. and in other news this week more than one hundred suspected mercenaries are caught fleeing war torn homes as fears of foreign interference in syria escalate. and e states sign up to tough budget rules to stop overspending by europeans value against cuts imposed to save the single currency. forecasting live from moscow this is our tease we can use it here but first russians are going to the polls to choose their next president thousands of observers are monitoring the vote and thousands of newly installed web cameras are trained on the ballot boxes across the country. yes polling stations across all of russia's nine times and so open toilets no totalities. lexy yeah how has the turnout been so. well it's a relatively high turnout compared even to the previous presidential election in two thousand and eight in fact some regions in the far east are registered more than fifty percent of the voter turnout one region even registered as seventy percent turnout which is certainly

this is what the opposition promised the kremlin after december's parliamentary elections they claimed the vote had been raped in response the authorities decided web cameras at all ninety eight thousand polling stations would solve that problem it's cost russian taxpayers over three hundred million dollars doubling the nischelle cost of the vote now it's officially the most transparent and the most expensive in the nation's history but not everyone's convinced. cameras on changing anything there will always be discontent it was honest before even without cameras i don't think it will make the vote more transparent it's only made to please the opposition. that there was no sense installing them too many people are voting and there are too many polling stations it will make things more complicated. one of the main concerns about the c.c.t.v. system is whether it can serve a country as vast as russia hacker attacks on the website in charge of broadcasting shortly before the vote only added to concerns but these young people claim they came up with a strong alternative the phone and table

i'm at real research a lot in moscow but the long and hard fought race for the kremlin is over with prime minister vladimir putin now set to make a return to the presidency after a landslide election victory but expectations are now greater than it any other time with serious national challenges still ahead compounded by a public more politically acute than ever before. he got a chef he reports. it was one emotional night for. you we would we. i. mean we have you on. but the prime minister may have justified his cheers about his strong wind but no one would be surprised if it was caused by the joy of victory i it was hardly a shock as clinton had been the elections clear front runner but eventually result of almost sixty four percent stunned even those at the helm who would never think of such a high result so it's even higher than we predicted for ourselves and shows once again actually proves that organize a political figure number one in this country and he's potential is yet to has yet to be open told her that but it's no time to party now many experts believe clinton's real challenge
