these days such bills slip through and even pass the first reading at the state duma, the liberal democratic party did not support this bill in the first reading, and i hope that other parliamentary parties will support us in order to the second reading, in fact, was not at all. we must cut our e, outdoor advertising industry fine professional professional people who work in this company and not create any designs that are not at hand for those who live in russia. uh, this is what concerns outdoor advertising now. this is a very, uh, sensitive, uh, question. well, the state duma alexander is probably our audience. it's good. uh, they know they are actively discussing another hot topic. various options for tightening legislation in defense of traditional and family values. the ldpr has always put forward. this topic, as one of the key ones, one bill proposes to ban showing russian films in which there is a scene that romanticizes makes romantic, and some uh relationships of the same sex about a childless lifestyle, another bill proposes to ban. uh, such propaganda in literature, the third bill edit

who there may be more people had one fought for the liberal democratic party. the assassination was a shocking incident. so i think people, husband, he thought, but i hope they can vote based on their own decision. a surge of support will help prime minister for me. okay. she does strengthen his grip on power. generally speaking, his polls are quite high. ah, but so one thing which is a dogging him is the rising inflation and cost of living as it is monica in many nations of world. if though the results tonight are act or above expectations, then i think we can definitely say that key she's position will be secured for quite some time going forward. it may even see the l. d. p and his junior coalition partner comb ito, controlling 2 thirds of parliament, which would allow them to take the 1st steps in amending the constitution. one of our best goals had been to revise the country's pacifist constitution, which forbids japan's offensive military capabilities. meanwhile, the suspect in the murder of obey has been handed over to prosecutors inara, where he will li

andrei skvortsov will continue the ruling coalition of the liberal democratic party and the kumyto party the majority of seats in the japanese parliament in the elections with his last political task shinzo coped at the time of the tragedy, he campaigned for the ldp, which led almost 10 years before the announcement of the election result, a moment of silence in memory of the former premiere. at this post stayed for a total of 9 years. 63 seats for the liberal democrats is the best result since 2013 for the next constitutional democratic party, which is almost four times less, perhaps it was the murder of aba that shocked everyone in japan that caused such a wave of sympathy. on this background. all the country's political leaders stressed the importance of free speech and commitment to combating violence security measures are likely to be tightened due to the ease with which an armed attacker got close to one of the most powerful politicians states. the main change is awaiting the constitution of the country, following the results of the vote, the parliament will receive the required nu

p, itself, the liberal democratic party? and to what extent do you think the political landscape has changed for japan's ruling party with this assassination? in terms of the immediate impact on the election, i don't expect to be a huge impact based on the tragedy that we've just seen. i think there might be some up search and support for the l. d. p. the ruling party that mr. all day with a member of based on sympathy that people have for the party and the last that, that stuff that but i think this will be more people who are planning spoke to the l. d p anyway on somewhat ambivalent about whether they'd actually turn out might push a few more people to actually go to the polls. so we might see a bit of a search in support for the party, but they were already on track to win a majority. mr. casey, there's been doing, we can be well in the polls and the opposition and it's very divided. i think they're about 12 parties in the opposition contesting the election and some of those opposition party that's free and some of the ke

but apparently, the liberal democratic party will cease all his activities on this day due to the killing options. arriving, however, public sympathies will likely be on the side of his political party was seen. so abe's 9 years as prime minister made him the longest serving premiere in japan's history until he resigned citing health issues back in 2020. but he's remained influential in the ruling liberal democratic party for which he was promoting candidates ahead of the japanese parliamentary elections. this coming weekend. well let's get more on this developing story in cross lives now to research fellow at the university of tokyo, thorsten pat burke, thanks very much for joining us. could you describe the mood in japan following the announcement? that's the form of payment session. so up a has died. well, let me tell you, it was a country chalk. it was a, it was the most tragic thing. yes and everything still, because the news for not coming through must imagine that at the moment of the assassination, things are not as clear as they are now. so reports come, came out over, it took yo

he was promoting candidates from depends ruling liberal democratic party. they was the longest serving prime minister in japanese history until he resigned after a total of 9 years in 2020 fighting health reasons. at the time he has remained strongly, influential within the party were now joined live by gregory clark, ameritas, president of tama university and a former australian diplomat. currently in tokyo. thanks for being with us here on our international. so what do you think the motive could have been for? are they being shot? and that is a good question. but he has a very how should we say chicken mish sub history? he's been involved in some serious corruption scandals. but as far as i'm concerned, his rain, the problem is north korea. he was response director is not properly realized. but he was directly responsible for killing a 20 years ago, killing a, an agreement which would have saying north korea sees michelle testing and would have opened up a new, created to an economic age from japan. that it would have completely changed to the politics of

also as a member of the member, as the leader of a very big faction within the liberal democratic party. now shootings are very rare in japan and how shocked at the japanese public and with what happened in our extremely shocked. i mean, i can't really say it in a different way. there's been a lot of reactions coming in, people condemning this type of violence. this is not something that japan is used to at all. they have been very few incidents of this kind of caliber in the past. and the question is also, was there enough security or not, or how could he slip past security? so i think, i hope we'll get to these questions and sonya glasgow in tokyo, thank you. you're welcome. russian president vladimir putin has dared the west to try and defeat russia on the battlefield. he also claimed that he had barely started his offensive, and in the eastern and southern city such as have sun, hooton's forces now dominate. back in june, the occupying administration announced a referendum on joining russia, though when this will take place is on here. but many, harrison residents won't be around to

this could be expected to work in favor, rob the ruling liberal democratic party. and even before this happens, the a l d p in it's our partner, the tomato party was on track to comfortably win a majority. and that's probably going to happen on sunday, but it is a tribute for mr. rob, i, that's a prime minister. kisha has been so defined, you know, saying this, this will not stop on japan's democratic process. and so we're, hopefully the japanese lecture will turn out and show that a clinical violence shouldn't have any impact japanese society in day. thank you very much for your thoughts and craig, mark a professor and also the author of the abbe restoration. we appreciate your time on his knees. alan. if i can, let's move on now. and 2 other world news bars, johnson says he intends to stay on as u. k. prime minister, despite resigning his later of the governing conservative party, he says he'll continue in a k to a capacity until potty members elect his successor. because our growing for his immediate departure, the stage is now set for a leadership race that cou

no one of the liberal democratic party, headed by prime minister fumiokisida, doubted that the rulingld win the elections. strengthened the opposition by securing a confident majority. that will allow the government to freely pass laws, including on the revision of the constitution but the fact that the assassination would have affected the mood of the voters cannot be denied, of course i came to the polling station with a feeling of strongest protest against this murder, because i consider the destruction unacceptable. freedom of speech, the offender 41-year-old yamagami admitted during interrogation that he had been preparing for the murder of the politician for several months. he says that in this way he took revenge on a certain religious organization, with which he was allegedly associated anyhow because she lured a large amount of money from his mother. at first he wanted to make a bomb, but in the end he decided to use a homemade firearm the police took out of his apartments five such sawn-off shotguns. and the neighbors said that they heard, how for a long time something was s

he was really there to support the members of his liberal democratic party. and he had left politics officially on the left politics, but left the post as the prime minister 2 years ago, saying that he wasn't well enough physically to continue the job. however, and he's been very instrumental behind the scenes and was the head of the largest faction within the liberal democratic party. so his support on the campaign trail for the candidates obviously means a lot. and he's word in japan is still very much very important for people. sonya you mentioned before that there's obviously a great sense of shock m of c a around the world but, but as well in japan because it's not a country that has a very high at rate will say of violence like this as shootings are incredibly rare, right? yes, yes. the 3 cases of politicians in the last several decades. this is really something very uncommon. and the only cases when weapons are used here are usually among members of the mafia. groups. other than that, shootings are extremely rare. and like i said that the weapon that h
