And it took 3 weeks for washington to acknowledge what is now called a horrible mistake. Also, initially for claiming a terrorist happened heads for the 1st time france, recall that somebody from the us and of training, accusing them of lying and sobbing security also including the u. K.

Giving us a rough idea of the makeup of russias low half of parliament. And this is how the part is currently stand. United. Russia has 46 percent of the both the communist party of the russian federation, which generally comes 2nd, just down to 23 percent. The liberal democratic fancy russia has just over 8 percent adjust russia, which recently merged with 2 smaller policies, is next on 7 and a half percent. And new party, the selection called new people has 6 percent, which is enough to handle seats in the parliament. And these results are not final, of course, theyre also only for half of the 450. 00 contested seats as russians also voted for individual candidates, as well as policies and his and explain the, the. So throughout the week, he has been broadcasting from the very heart of moscow and its special Elections Teeter and Daniel Hawkins and sounds good taylor brave, the wind and the rain to bring us all the latest on the elections on the final their voting. And here are some of the highlight, the, all the halls are moscow and if you paid it shooting in throughout the week, you know, were on our roof, the best view and theyre not the best weather where were going to bring you the coverage of the 20. 21 russian parliamentary Election Counting is now well underway all across the country and my goodness visited the country. So if you just take a long time want to go with, we also know that the whole Election Process works differently in many, many countries over time. Welcome to the cedar, followed remotely, a member of the chamber of deputies of the italian parliament who was among the international observers here at the russian state election. Thanks for joining us in the program. Today. Were not gonna keep you long preset. Its cold, but you get to get your, your insight here that youve been an observer, italian elections as well. Whats your experience here in moscow in russia . How did the elections compare . What have you been noticing . Weve easiest around the 20 Police Station by what i saw, everything was working pretty good and my country, you know, we have a long tradition about selection from the recycling war. So we have a kind of for more action system. We dont have scanner, we dont have the opportunity to vote by them by, by the web buttons. And lets save at going around the world. It could be also interesting for us if you want to find a way to, to arrange it in a more modern way our system of election. So now, i mean, we know there are few absorbers this time round because of an international for example, the united nation said that they were, they were going to be sunday an arrest the rather, sorry, did you. And they said, while we think may be watching, sorry for being difficult, how did you fly from your experience when you were in the Polling Station . Did you feel that you were welcomed in . Oh, yes it was here was good. I can see i eat. I was able to talk to the president of a Police Station everywhere he was going to understand of a problem. So to understand the eager. So thats putting spatial so everything was fine. First time at elections and russia, know if to the 2nd one because they was here almost the little bit for one year ago for taishan virginia. And the last time we were able to visit David D 5 pulling station, we had a very big experience about Bullying Station in moscow. Near i shop. All right, paula grimaldi, member of the italian chamber deputy. Thanks so much for your time. And of course, its not just the old new russians. Youve been keen to get a reaction of the past few days. This cute will call it what will along to the Polling Station with its owner. All that he goes, i mean, have you ever seen a key school . The pop wasnt the only 4 legged friend to visit the part of boxes just to hear while up to baseball. But cool thing. A bit more of a commotion was a recount. I one Polling Stations 7 minutes giving police the slip before it was finally corner. Believe it or not, it has actually been brought along by a vote for support. Just goes to show you nothing. Not even a pat recruiting that can stop you from doing your right to vote and your duty. The end for me to flip this one. Mine was the last or decided to make a grand entrance to show rocky turned up in a deep Sea Diving Outfit designed for the navy. Despite an obvious lack of ocean, you made a flash of the stuff. So i thought its actually thought that you wouldnt expect to see or hear out a rush. So that was something you wouldnt expect to hit out of rush election. Thats exactly what famous french actors. Yall just said, well, coughing his boat. Now it was quite big news. What happened was grand russian citizenship back in 2013. Hes had quite a few elections to vote and youre told john that he likes the fact that there was so many candidates to choose from 14 policies. Like i said, Rocket Record Number that is facing this time. So the buy from us from a very rainy, very what, but very useful on the left must go from off the top election. And were now starting to get a rough idea of the makeup of the State Duma for the next 5 years. As i mentioned earlier, United Russia Party has currently currently have 46 percent of the vote. Thats after just over 40 percent of the ballots have been counted. The policy is now close to the results it achieved during the previous 2016 elections. So United Russia is the ruling party, also the largest in the country. Its chairman is the former prime minister dmitri me divided the party. Suppose the program of the current president and among the goals its trying thing russia soverignty, it can all make agenda English Support for domestic industry with an emphasis on high tech sectors on hes constantly wash call for both. Now from united Rushes H t. Everyone here seems to be in high spirits and youre going to see the stage over my shoulder were one of the party leaders hadnt just congratulated the audience with a quote unquote clear victory. However, at this point, it doesnt look like beat, overwhelming victory as it was during the last election. Were looking at the preliminary result here that show United Russia with a 38. 5 percent of the vote. Another Exit Poll suggests its close to 45 percent, but anyway, its a decrease. As of now its a decrease from the last Parliament Election in 2016 when the party gained 54 percent. Not all of the ballots have been counted yet, and the numbers may change. Also, you have to realize that United Russia is leading in many constituency elections across the country, which will help the party to secure ex, received in the lower parliament. I retain a simple majority of please simple majority to be accurate. Were looking at 131 c, a preliminary number of United Russia, the candidates leading in their constituency as if now. Anyway, it seems that for United Russia to repeated success and have a super majority in this may do much 2 thirds of the seeds, which allows the faction to pass legislation without looking towards the opposition. Well, this is a tall order many way on the side. Now we had a chance to exclusively talk with the current on my case. So i need the presenter, United Russia. He also said that regardless of the outcome, the already going down on the african american joint operating in russia. Theres some good media influences growing by the year and especially when it comes to young people. I just kind of course the to be john from the live with america. Lord, not with one operating in our country is wrong. And well change that. We have a Draft Bill and, and grounding those id giant, so to speak, right . They will have representation in the russian Federation And Bear responsibility under russians law. If they break those doors, particularly if they spread information that seem to stream it by rational authorities. If they support such groups that will be held accountable. In fact, this temperance is not that huge, but in big cities that affects the Voter Turnout among new for us, every Volume Account and we dont want to hand our electro feels to the Industry Operating under u. S. On United Russia, which supports the Kremlin Latimer who has been the country dominant political Force Foundation in the 1001. 00 or whatever that party is indeed already pub learning. And the waned in the year actually, pretty much like the engine born on to that united. Russia has completely taken up and already lit and chosen some of the country, the most popular political personality black. She began to like the fact that its showing for Minister Laugh or whether its on the leg, by the way, the new comic of all the things that hes present going to prominent early 2020 of the had dr. Rushes made several of wireless hospitals to well see if opposed to speed up. And as i said, the United Russia is leading a preliminary result. But its still unclear if they will manage to repeat their previous exams and completely dominate a new comma to the russian political landscape. Looks like itll make its mark and the selection, the new people pass. It currently has just over 6 percent of the vote. Thats over the 5 Percent Threshold required to enter the countries low chambers, parliament, the State Duma. So the new People Policy was found interest the air ago is considered to be sent to rise, pledges to fight against bureaucracy in the country. And stands for the modem is ation of political institutions. The policy for my social justice and support. The development of modern technologies, science and education, our correspondent eager donna has been keeping an eye on the policy results, brings the heart of the political life of the whole country of russia. This is one of the most upscale and friendly places of the russian capital. But today it is hosting the sort of the after party for the parliamentary elections, this political Experts Analyst as panels of guest happening as we speak. And of course, candidates here as well. But as you were saying, the ones who are seem to be definitely celebrating, they will be celebrating tonight, at least. If the preliminary figures dont change and dont waldrop too much for them is a new party, the new people, this is their name and they could very well add to the existing 4 parties currently represented in the lower house of the russian parliament. And well, what better way to find out about the parties, policies, and what theyre all about after all, even in russia, not that many people might know about them since they have only been formed just a year ago. But still it hasnt tampered them from already. They seem to be bagging just just below 7 percent of the votes, but without any further ado, im being joined by the number 2 of the new peoples party store. We choose to cut pertaining to how are you feeling at the moment and what do you think of the preliminary results . The even the preliminary results are quite impressive for a new policy taking part in the federal election for the 1st time. We feel tremendous support. Its a huge responsibility. What is especially encouraging is that russians across the world voted for our party. Its amazing. Know if i need to 3 as lovely via chicago. What are the 3 main things you should know about . Your pot eluded me and somebody, me, and we represent modern russia countries driving 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 top priority, and wherever we go, it enjoys peoples support. So we start, donna, changes for you, the advisor to the head of the new people party. I will be standing by to bring you all the latest as to how things unfold and how the figures change. The time now to some of the biggest stories of the week and the united, the United States this week, acknowledge that a late August Trans trunk and ive got a son killed 10 civilians including 7 children and not a single terrorist. Washington had initially claimed a trial was necessary to prevent an attack on Campbell Airport in the final days before americans military withdrawal. O. Busy O O. Ringback the me on friday at top us command admitted to the Trans Strike was, will take, hold a mistake marine corps, general Kenneth Mackenzie apologized and acknowledged that those killed and was a residential era of cobble, were not associated with the Terror Group Isis K. I am now convinced that as many as 10 civilians, including up to 7 children, were tragically killed in that strike. Moreover, we now assess that it is unlikely that the vehicle and those who died were associated with us is take or were a director at to us forces. That was a mistake. And i offer my sincere apology. Americas last drone strike officially of the, of the afghan war, turned into a terrible tragedy where we heard them try to justify these as strike say that they saw him this vehicle in Year And Isis compound that they saw him looting containers, which turned out to be watered containers into his cup. We found that very quickly that what the United States said and more people were reporting on the ground. The witnesses and the Body Count that they didnt fit with the american narrative. The guy, the biden administration drone was the, an Aide Worker. Or an Ices K Operative the administration is of course, reviewing that that strike. And im sure that a full assessment will be, will be for you dont know if it was an Aide Worker or an Ices K Operative. I cant speak to that and i cant speak to that in the setting in any event, so you dont know or wont tell us. I dont, i dont know because were reviewing. Well see you think youd kinda know before youre off, somebody with a predator drones. And the thing is, is there is blow back to that. I mean, i dont know if its true, but i see these pictures of these beautiful children that were killed in the attack. If thats true and not propaganda, if thats true, guess what . Maybe youve created hundreds or thousands of new potential terrorist from bombing the wrong people. We also had just recently that the she, i apparently warned that there were children in the vicinity as the me saw was being lot will though and is unclear whether this is really true or merely propaganda. Because, you know, given current rates of technology and the technology, the United States has had for many years, it is difficult to imagine them launch it myself from a grown without seeing what they were aiming at, what they were firing at 7 children were killed during that strike, some of them were playing around the car. One of the parents was, was parking the car and several more were inside the car when it was struck by us mesa paid to go to school with a terrible tragedy. It says it will try to try to learn the lessons that ought to be learned here. But ultimately it says, our ability to strike in a dentist on against future targets remains. Im diminish, so dont take this as a sign of weakness. That is what they said. This is an evacuation in the war that left the pride of the american people, the america american military and the american nation. Deeply wounded, ultimately the by the administration will have a very, very tough few weeks ahead of them. The republican arrived for blood while the democrats are trying to carry out these investigations, and im such a way that they dont hom president biden, but many of them will, reggie publicly admitted that may be impossible. The youngest make sense of that August 29th strike in carmel were 2 girls, both h to the man who was targeted to turn out to band aid worker. Us forces apparently thought he was learning bombs on her trunk, bows 10 down to a water bottles. His brother was among big Grieving Family members who shared their stories with us in our special project and had voices. You can watch it in full at any time on R C Dot com. But he has a preview. Saw the sandals, belong to melinda. She was very close to me. I looked her so much. She always told me to buy Ice Cream with us military forces conducted and unmanned over the Horizon Airstrike on a vehicle known to be an imminent Isis K threat. On the morning of the bombing, she came and kissed me and said, good morning father. It was her last meeting. I will never see her again. I say, Isis K lived in this house in this house with these children, members of ice, this stupid thought without any proof, without any investigation, they attacked us and killed our children. And we will never forgive a full pentagon security analyst, and an Ex Intelligence Officer gave us to have use on the us apology. And the deep underlying issues it reveals. It is a little unusual for them to admit to a mistake. They used to be bombings all the time in syria and northern iraq. They hardly ever admitted to the kind of gun really had no choice but to look into it. So the general takes responsibility and theyre going to offer compensation that doesnt bring back the lives of children and the adults who are killed. And it also showed they didnt have good intelligence. And it really throws into question the over the horizon concept. That pentagon says it now has, and well continue to watch f can a stand for any potential terrorist attacks out of isis or, or al qaeda. It clearly shows that this over the Horizon Approach is inadequate. It makes more terrors, it kills by alienating entire populations, who say all the United States is doing is murdering innocence. We have a person whos not properly trained, looking at a screen under great pressure from his commander in chief. The scene is striking somebody and hes looking at something that he doesnt understand or she doesnt understand and decides to make a decision that yes, this could be a threat. And then result, we fire missile, we do a building, a car had nothing to do with isis. United states should not be employed. Weapons, Ap Hazard Lee in a manner which ends up killing thousands of innocent civilians. Remember these last 10 or just the final exclamation on a program is killed thousands of innocence the same way. This happened with bad intelligence, bad information and political pressure to be seen as doing something. And on top of some uncomfortable questions of that Bunch Drennan Strike the us secretary of state also came in for more criticism from us lawmakers during the week with focus falling on the Binding Administration Handling of the going withdraw. I dont know how its possible if in fact the people in charge of our foreign policy did not see all of these factors and conclude that there was a very real possibility of a rep, very rapid collapse. And weve got the wrong people making Military And Diplomacy decisions in our government. The Washington Post called it a moral disaster. I think its a moral disgrace. You nearly dislocated your shoulder though, patting yourself on the back for the great Job Youve done. I mean, just yesterday you stated we did the right thing by our citizens in working feverishly to get every one of them out. But you didnt get every one of them out. This administrations bungle pull out from afghanistan just may be the worst foreign Affairs Disaster in american history or blink. And of course, he is culpable in many ways, but the department of defense is the, is a big player here. And a tone of the questioning is really political theater and you can, you can kind of watch it on both sides. Its more entertaining than it is revealing. We blame trump for everything. We dont see signs so that i assessed the situation 8 months ago. Lets say in january, lets say at the end of january, when he took power, it didnt seem like he was really assessing what he had been left by the previous administration. And thats the duty of all president s as they transfer power. So he can blame trump. I dont think its its really valid. In this case. Frank, half for the 1st time recalled it some boxes from the u. S. In australia. Its an declaration of outrage over a new pacific security parks and Building Washington and cambra plus the u. K. Brittons new for the secretary has a defend is the parks with the french foreign minister leading out some direct words for the tree of nations. You that has been lying. Duplicity is a major breach of trust and contempt. This will not meddle the feelings are not going well. Really, theyre not going well. It means that a crisis, we are a fierce champion of freedom and free enterprise, but freedoms need to be defended. So were also building strong security ties around the world. It shows our readiness to be hard headed and defending our interests and challenging unfair practices and malign acts. The new agreement has cold. All the 3 nations will shine data on strategic areas, including cybersecurity and nuclear defense. Under the terms of training will acquire nuclear power. Its a marine please with the use of american and british technology, and its men, this cropping of a multi 1000000000 Years Submarine Contract between cambra and paris. Charlotte davinsky has been taking a class and the 4th call that wrong thing. See us done. Relations with this deal were joining together were partnerships are getting stronger. This is what were about. You are you ricocheted right the way through the french government. But its really a stop in the back. A relationship of trust have been built with australia and this trust has been betrayed, was police. We signed an agreement, a strategic partnership, violating it would be the same as breaking a promise. And when it comes to the field of geopolitics and international relations breaking promises unacceptable. So instead of this problem over the loss of what was known as the you of the century, supply that fleet of submarine to a 3. Its now thinking event less, right . And then to get together with the trailer on the us have been told, relations have sunk so low from says recall that some passages from both countries. I understand theyre disappointed and thats very, very clear and work through those issues. Theyre important part of france, particularly here in the pacific, where we have so many shared interests. And so well work through that some now questioning if the Nato Alliance can bite Nato Isnt working as its supposed to be. That was initially supposed to be working. It is, there are alliances within the alliance and this proves today that there or no more, there is no more lines i think that they have to be reviewed. And if for astra and the us and u. K can backstab with countries like crown. I think this should give a strong signal to parents that once again, its got nothing to gain within any try have been chatted on the side of the atlantic. But this, you could have much wider repercussion showing it, had slammed it too, suggesting it was akin to the cold war meal. You should, you, the us on the street should follow the trend of the times. Respect the common operations of countries in the region, discuss the outdated cold war 0. So mentality and narrow minded. And you trying to developments in a correct way and stop interfering in china in terms of when they dont cause way. But it could be a freely to ignore me. It takes some tension between the us that you can trust and it should need to come in goes pacific is where i didnt want to foreign policy to be focused. Joiner is im likely to take that thing down show that people sky, ill see power when use in about a certain minutes time up next door. Not saying to nationally it sound talk, you mentoring the the whos ah ah, me, ah, the war we have become americans. But a warning the feet had become even more important and what is unfolded . Watershed moment. Okay. Down in history books. As a mocking beginning of the end of american preeminence, this is the end of america. Ah, me started my interest, i should say in black americans in the soviet union, the theories was finding this portrait, even though ive gone to grad school, the Masters Degree in russian literature. I speak russian and i had lived over there in the late eightys finding this fortunate was was a stunning development for me. How did i not
