Bothers counting in the russian stay do. My election is well underway and the results are continue to trickle. And its 5 oclock in the morning hain. Moscow and over half of the votes have been counted on giving us a rough idea of the makeup of rushes. The house of parliament. So its now the part is currently said, this is how the pass is currently stand, fast united. Russia has 46 percent of the buzz, the communist party of the russian federation, which generally come 2nd, have gained just over 21 percent. The liberal democratic policy of russia has just over 8 percent, just russia, which recently much was 2 smaller policies is next to 7 and a half percent. And new policy. This election called new people has 6 percent, which is enough to hand that seats in the parliament. And these results are not, of course, final. And also they are only for half of the 450. 00 contest and seats, as russians also voted for individual candidates, as well as parties. And heres an explain a for you the with the, the so throughout the weekend and the week he has been broadcasting from the very heart of moscow and his special Election Studio is Daniel Hawkins and Saskia Taylor braved the wind and the rain to bring us all the latest on the elections on the final dev. Voting and here are some of the highlights the, all the halls are moscow. And if you paid it shooting in throughout the week, you know, were on our roof to the best view and theyre not the best weather. Were going to bring you the coverage of the 2021 russian parliamentary Election Counting is now well underway. All across the country and my goodness isnt a big country. So can you just take a long time want to go. We also know that the whole process works differently in many, many countries, which i know welcome to the c to follow 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 hits that you put an observer italian elections as well. Whats been your experience here in moscow in russia . How do the elections compare . What have you been noticing . Weve been around 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 say that 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 a 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 robber, sorry. Did you. And they said, while we think may be watching, sorry, of 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 said 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. If they go past time of 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 be saving the 5 Bullying Stations. We had a very big experience about the 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 to the action of the past few days, this toodle colgate. What were looking for, 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 the boxes, just a while activate both but cool thing. A bit more of a commotion was a recount. I one Polling Stations from 7 minutes giving police the flip before it was finally cornered. Believe it or not, it has actually been brought along by a vote for support. Just goes to show you. Theres nothing, not even a pat recruiting that can stop you from doing your right to vote and your duties at the end from for 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 exactly thought that you wouldnt expect to see or hear out a rough set of bucks. So that was something you wouldnt expect to hear out of russian lesson. Thats exactly what famous french actors are all just said, well, coughing his boat. Now it was quite big news. What happened was grand russian citizenship back in 2013. Hes has 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 parties. Like i said, rocket record number, its is facing this time to 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 stay due for the next 5 years. As i mentioned earlier, United Russia currently has 46 percent of the thats up to just over 50 percent of the balance have been counted. The policy is now close to the results a to treat during the previous 2016 elections. So youre not rushing the routing part hazel, so the largest in the country its chairman, is before the prime minister, as well as president to be treatment effective. The policy supports the program of the current president , and among his goals is trying think russia sovereignty. It can only could john to include support for domestic industry with an emphasis on high tech sectors. Hes konstantin roche, gulf reports not from united rushes have. 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 results 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 parliamentary 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, and were looking at 131 sees a preliminary number of United Russia 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 day, 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 occurrence on my case. So i need the presenter united. He also said that regardless of the outcome, the party 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 finance or the tech joint symbol i with american lord not with rushes, one operating in our country is wrong and well change that. We have a Draft Bill and, and grounding those id giant, so speak, have representation in the russian Federation And Bear responsibility under russians law. If they break those doors, particularly if they spread information that deemed extreme is by rational authorities. If they support such groups that will be held accountable. In fact, this influence is not that huge, but in big cities, it affects the Voter Turnout among you. For us, every Volume Account and we dont want to hand our electro feels to the id in the operating on the u. S. On united, russia, which supports the Kremlin Latimer who has been the country dominant political forrest and foundation, and the 1001. 00 whatever the parties are. Indeed, already pub learning, the waned in the year. Actually, pretty much like born on to that United Russia has completely taken up and already live in choosing some of the countrys most popular legal personalities. Black, she began to like the fact that its showing foreign minister, elaborate 3rd on the lead, by the way, the new comic and politics and hes present new came to prominence and early 2020 of the doctor of russia made several of wireless hospitals soon. Well see if the approach has paid off and as i said, United Russia is leading a few preliminary result. But its still unclear if they will manage to repeat their previous success and completely dominate the duma. And you come to the russian political landscape. Looks like it will make it mark in this election. The new People Party currently has just under 6 percent of the vote. That still over the 5 Percent Threshold are required to enter the countries low chamber parliament, the state demon. The new People Policy was found and jesse are guy, its considered to be sent right. It pleasure to fight against bureaucracy in the country and stands for the mobilize ation, political institutions. The policy promote social justice and support the development of modern technologies, science and education. Our correspondent Egos Donna has been keeping an eye on the part. As a result, we are very likely to see a new party on well on the political landscape of russia and its been new People Party could very well add to the existing full parties currently represented in the lower house of the russian parliament. And, well, what better way to find out about the Parties Policy than what they are all about after all, even in russia, not that many people might know about them since they have only been form just a year ago. Store we choose to if you could give a problem with 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 party taking part in the federal elections for the 1st time. We feel tremendous support. Its a huge responsibility. What is especially encouraging is that russians across the well voted for our party. Its amazing not to pre smoothly via chicago read. What are the 3 main things that you should know about possibly allude to me and somebody me and we represent the most in 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 our top priority, and wherever we go, its enjoy people support. So we start, donna, changes for you, the advisor to the head of the new people, party, the time not to send, not the biggest stories of the week and the United States this week. Acknowledge that late August Drones trunk and ive got his don killed 10 civilians including 7 children and not a single Terrorist Washing had initially claimed was trying was necessary to prevent an attack on Campbell Airport in the final days before american military withdrawal. O. Busy O O. Busy busy the. Busy me on friday i told us commander admitted the Drum And Strike was what he called a mistake marine corps. General Kenneth Mackenzie apologized and acknowledged those killed and was a residential area of campbell when not associated with a terrorist group. I says, kate, i am now convinced that as many as 10 civilians, including up to 7 children, were tragically killed in that strike. Moreover, we now assume that it is unlikely that the vehicle and those who died were associated with Ices Cake or were a direct threat to us forces. There 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 tried to justify these as strike say that they saw him this Vehicle Year and Isis Compound that they saw him looting containers, which turned out to be water 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 know, no or wont tell us. I dont, i dont know because were doing 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 terrorists 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 sob 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 had to go to school, did 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, the republican arrived for blood while the democrats tried 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 victims of dance August 29 Striking campbell were 2 Girls Bus H to the man who was targeted, turned out to be an Aide Worker. Us forces apparently thought he was loading bombs on her truck, but those tend to be water bottles. His brother was among the Grieving Family members, her shad best stories with us in our special Project Cold and had voices. You can watch it in for at any time on on c dot com. But he is a preview. Saw thought the sandals belong to milly. 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 ices. Stupid thoughts without any proof, without any investigation. They killed our children and we will never forgive a former pentagon security list. And the next Intelligence Office i gave was 5 years 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 it. The kind of gotten really had no choice but to look into it. So the general takes responsibility and theyre going to offer compensation. 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 will continue to watch f can 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 terrorist, it kills by alienating entire populations who say all United States is doing is murdering innocence. We have a person who is not properly trained, looking at his screen under great pressure from his commander in chief to be seen as 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 the result is we fire missile, we do a building, a car had nothing to do with isis. United states should not be employed, Weapons 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. It is kill thousands of innocence the same way this happened with bad intelligence. That information and political pressure to be seen is doing so and on top of some uncomfortable questions on the butcher to Credit Strike the us secretary of state also came in for more criticism from us lawmakers during the week with focus falling on the bond and administrations handling of the withdrawal . I dont know how its possible if even 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. Then 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 quick, but you didnt get every one of them out. This administrations bungle pull out from afghanistan, just maybe 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 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 tread for power. So he can blame trump. I dont think its, its really valid. In this case. Frank, for the 1st time hump has recorded ambassadors from the us and australia. Its a declaration of outrage over a new pacific Security Box involving Washington And Camber place. The u. K. Brittons new for the secretary has defended the parks while the french foreign minister dealing out and direct was for the tree old nations that has been lying deeply. Hes a major breach of trust. Lewis, medical feelings are not going well, really, theyre not going well. It means that the crime, 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 you agreement has called all case the 3 nations, all Shad Dave ho strategic areas including cybersecurity and nuclear defense. Onto the turns as training will acquire a nuclear Power Submarine Fleet with the use of american and british technology and its man, this cropping of the multi 1000000000 year a Submarine Contract between Cambra And Perez charlie dimansky has been taking a closer look. Oh, that was the wrong thing. See us down to their 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 relationship who 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 an acceptable. So in this problem, over the loss of what was known as the you of the century, supply that fleet of submarine to a trade in. Its now thinking event less. Right. And then to get together with the trailer and the us have been told relations have sunk so low from to recall that some passages from both countries. I understand theyre disappointed and that thats very, very clear. And well 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 Benito Alliance can invite Nato Isnt working as it supposed to be. That was initially supposed to be working. It is, there are alliances within the alliances and this because prove today that there are these, there are no more, there is no more alliance. I think that they have to be reviewed. And if for australia and the us and u. K can backstab a country like crap. I think this should give a strong signal to parents that once again is gotten nothing to gain with an alliance. Any cross have been chatted on the side of the atlantic, but this deal could have much wider repercussion showing it, had slammed it to just think it was a can to the whole rule. May all you should you the us on the street should follow the trend of the times. Respect the common aspirations of countries in the region, discuss the outdated cold war 0. So mentality and narrow minded duplicate section. The view chinese developments in a correct way and stop interfering in china, internal affairs when they dont wait for the could be a freely to ignore me. It takes some tension between the us and that you trust and it should need to come in those pacific is where i didnt want to foreign policy to be focused. Joiner is im likely to take that sitting down at the sky. Ill see Paris Angie are out today the Moon Use about 30 minutes off next states worlds apart with host oksana boy, can i join me every 1st day on the Alex Simon show and ill be speaking to guess in the world. The politic sport business. Im show business, ill see you then. Me the me, the me a Hello And Welcome to the slow divided administration still and some retrain. Use with charles from garrison as a fact. Some american allies adjusted on seeing it as a total failure. One of them is india. We are having inductors, billions of dollars in afghanistan, economy, and much diplomatic capital in supporting its secular forces. Now have to wear it. Taliban had new Jelly Loss they came, or dr. Simply need to change tack. Well, to discuss that, im now joined by robert chil, any professor of strategic Studies Center for Policy Research in your dowdy professor. Chil, any is great to talk to thank you very much for finding the time youre fighting me. Now. Ive heard some prominent indian thinkers including india, the former foreign secretary of all of our and we had the show just a couple of months ago characterize the current situation and as the worst of all possible scenarios for india. Do you agree with side . So i can negative portrayal of things as to what has happened. President job either longer has song the greatest victory for terrorist in the modern history of global gardens. If you will consider what happened in syria and iraq, isis established. So color, sharpen the color that are good Protocol Vacuum vertical market printed by the c. S for war against president of syria. And that was the northern part of city. Coming on, governor me, thats how i rose and created a cognitive, but not the feel. The thought of on how did you know that he again was mike as far so this being a huge post lot. Yeah. This across the world. And this over the quote unquote base
