well one interesting factor here is in the opposition now particularly in reference to numb viney is the journalist and public figure. who has yesterday she said that he could join her campaign if the central election commission accept her or her registration as a candidate for the presidential election so far none has been rather scathing about sub chokri used to be kind of a socialite she was on reality t.v. early on in her career and also she's not likely to have much public sick support still it's an interesting factor to watch it is however important to point out that polls the newest polls show that even if you look at independent polls. putin is likely to win so the biggest goal is to show that these elections are legitimate emily many thanks for the early show in the correspondent in moscow. we're going to catch up with some of the other stories now making the news around the world russian officials say the country has begun establishing a permanent presence at its military bases in syria its own forces will keep the main base and expand the naval facility near the port city

previous conviction can't run for ten to fifteen years after their commission their conviction but not viney has always argued that there is no mention of that in the constitution and that it actually is legal for him to run so he is probably rather disappointed even though critics have been or. observers have been saying that this is expected and we were kind of just waiting here for for the announcement to be made on his candidacy all right so he is the disappointed nonetheless there was a foregone conclusion what role can he still play because he seems to be very defiant. yeah absolutely he has his team is called has said that they will appeal the decision she's been calling for a boycott in a video that was published just after the election commission's announcement which actually shows of course that he had prepared a video of course he said that his headquarters would now be turned into boycott centers that they would be monitoring the turnout of the election and that they would be campaigning against the election he actually said that in fact there will be no election at all if he is

say that someone with a previous conviction can't run for ten to fifteen years after that conviction viney argues that the constitution doesn't mention not so he was hoping that he would be able to run but this was kind of a decision that everyone has just been waiting to happen so a foregone conclusion have we heard from an evolving what's next for him what role can he still play in all of this. well these team has already said that they will appeal the decision and has already called for a boycott of the elections even yesterday when he was putting his candidacy forward officially he said that he calls on other office candidates to pull out of the race up to five days before the actual election so i guess his strategy here seems to be that he wants to undermine the legitimacy of the upcoming elections you know he has been arguing from the beginning that an election without him can't be a legitimate election because he's one of the big opposition candidates as he sees it himself certainly all right emily stick around because i'm going to ask about the other major story that broke where yo

really another option on the stage on the political stage here in russia now there's an exchange of viney an opposition candidate who may be barred from the election due to a previous conviction and then there's a sub shop who herself has said that her candidacy is more of a a protest vote for people and then there are a bunch of veteran candidates who run several times and who are also like not likely to get many votes so it's taken as a given not only that he would run but also that he most likely will win. and we sure are reporting from moscow thank you. want to tell you now about some of the other stories making news around the world poland's ruling a law and justice party may replace prime minister bayada glow in a government reshuffle next week well that's after she tweeted what many interpreted as a farewell statement saying whatever happens poland is the most important thing while the move. securing the pardons future ahead of a string of elections starting next year a man has appeared in court in london on suspicion of plotting to kill british prime minister to resign may prosecu
