The networks exploiting the racial discussion. You can watch them democracy is there is an agenda. For tension and the a. B. C. Tried to jump. Live from moscow to the World International my names you know youre very welcome to the program. All votes are counted following a week of polling across russia to decide on a raft of wide ranging amendments to the constitution the Electoral Commission the final results a few hours ago with some 78 percent voting in favor of iran 70 percent taylor was following developments for us. Now this really was a vote of the fos time people were in mosques and gloves the fos time they were using disposable pens wilson threw temperatures sconce fencing online for some so with pot about how thing now approved the amendments on the people having given barack proof will they will come into force as soon as flag to make signs a to create as for the voting process itself while that was a situation where security footage allegedly caught a woman stuffing the ballots now that counting in that area of moscow has been suspended pending an investigation otherwise the central Editorial Commission says that it found no irregularities but you know that commission itself did actually come under a bit of criticism to produce take the preliminary results while searching with still fun to way now what they say that they did this in the interest of transparency that the situation in the far east which is of course several hours ahead for example most was already clear and that they wanted to be a reliable and constant source of information which of course they have a legal right to do so there was so many amendments on the table 147. 00 in total that its difficult to decide what it was that ultimately secured public but undoubtedly its the package of social amendments that house particularly white appeal im talking about things like adjusting pensions in law and with inflation and showing that the minimum wage never ever fools below the cost of living as well as giving additional Financial Support to low income families these proof because they have such a tangible impact on peoples day to day lives but that is not to say that this was an easy decision for anyone old that it was without control to see a few amendments proved to be particularly polarizing and one that paints a lot of media traction was considering the socalled zeroing out of president putins previous tubs paving the way for him potentially if he wanted to do so run again twice as president. On top of this some of the more conservative amendments prove to be divisive such as defining marriage solely as a union between a man and a woman reiterating traditional family values as well as mentioning goal despite the fact that russia is officially a sect or the nation but let him the people themselves and what they have to say. The worth of food how could i not vote its our constitution with amendments we came because we agree with the amendments and thats why i came with my husband whom. I dont like the. Number of president ial terms it was a key before so there is increasing in my mind because an old other things this is the only these people who feel. Like this moses the hope for the best all the time and then with a new god into health care i endorse and the pension age well i guess everyone is against this so yes this 5050. It was a bit of a mixed bag in terms of reaction and people decide to show that disapproval not just at the polls but also protests peaceful ones but it in the capital and also in the us and petersburg but true to 20 or 20 fold it was safety fust. Rate its not. Honest and ultimately many who put a tick in the yes box with dogs but the rush of 9293 when this current constitution was born was full of political and economic instability it was still finding its feet after the collapse of the soviet union and that russia is not the same as the russia of 2020 that almost entirely Different Countries so i think this is yes to the changes was born from a desire for the countrys top document to move with the times to set russia on a new course and shape its future as envisaged by russians now today a not as in visits by russians always thought to years ago. And just picking up on not much talked about amendments saskia was going through the reset of the current president ial terms it means blood him or putin could potentially run for another 12 years after his current term ends an issue thats been bothering western media so much more than any other of the proposed changes hes the longest serving russian leader since the dictatorial days of stalin and should he decide to run again its looking like for the 16 years you know for much of us many of us observing this from around the world thats what the russians are voting on today do they want putin basically forever or do they want Something Different there is this feeling that it doesnt make any difference your vote counts for nothing theres nothing that can do if you wouldnt like to see him stay on in power some observers told d that you can just see from the results from the Central Action Committee where people went for the right to vote for him terribly that turnout was about 30 percent and where people were made to go to the to cast their ballots and that turnout was about 70 percent thats just not normal maybe at our truck slid by the easiest mess. A truck could message is all the president want to stay here for 20 dirty seats and sometimes they are not so many and its starting complex framework Legal Framework like a constitution to find what really is important because for the future of the country and for the society the normal People Living in russia i found in the pl many many points where you look in the social reforms like theyre all in them and also they knew the balance of power would have deserved more than usual but that the its you know the good news is no new that some used to say when your eyes are. I start your project on constitution then i found something very. Good to another headline Stories Police have cleared the self declared autonomous protest zone d in seattle activists occupy the area which became known as chop after police moved out of their precinct building the campaigners had said they hope to create a Peaceful Police free utopia but that peace didnt last too long in the 3 weeks of protests the zone saw 4 shootings 2 of them fake colts reports of assaults burglaries and rape the protesters some armed to where they could face arrest if they did not leave over 30 have been detained Seattle Police released video of some of the violence. Well at 1st the mare wanted to leave the activists alone to take over but she was later forced to take action. How long do you think seattle in those few blocks looks like this. I dont know how we could have the summer globes the deteriorating conditions and repeated gun violence required us to immediately address Public Safety concerns it was clear that many individuals would not leave and Public Safety could not be improved until they did leave quite a change in the democratic merce the solution came after protesters marched on her home demanding Police Funding be slashed a local activists watched the police move protesters on force and so mean a lie so i am outside of the pine street entrance of the shop right now where a bunch of police have set up a barricade and the protesters are now beginning to gather not just. Now but there are blocking the street trying to cause a little bit more awareness and the officers took that as an opportunity to fully enforce their version of law oh yeah no nothing that you know was done by the police came into the shop and ousted the remaining people who were staying there says that of around 32 a rests been sprayed people pepper spray them in their addresses from your perspective what exactly happened basically i was at our. Car and. It all started when bang bang bang screams and. There were a couple individuals who were speaking loudly red megaphones were doing the crowd energized to actually bringing people in off the streets and the cops in a little bike brigade actually charged and targeted those people arresting them individually and throwing them into the back of cop cars far end of chop. Not too long ago there were a bunch of tents in these areas there were people hanging out just living but in 5 hours everyone has been evacuated you know like you had a. Pretty tough. So yeah. My matches. Are burned you know i dont think anybody in seattle did not see this coming ever since the string of 4 to 5 shootings that have. Recently found out that in the last shooting there was a 14 of a 16 year old kid who were killed so chop is actually relatively empty and relatively quiet past couple days but i think that it was. The cops decided that it was time to put an end to it theres a lot of demoralization right now especially in the crowd of protesters because i think a lot of people are taking this is a bit of a loss because baby were. 2 told. This entire idea. Seems to have not only failed but come to an end. On wednesday Hong Kong Mark 23 years since control of the territory was handed from britain to china but the day was marred by violence against the own set of a new security law passed by beijing amid some of the uglier scenes the stabbing video emerges of a riot officer being stabbed in the arm by a protester. The officer was apparently trying to subdue a riot sir before being restrained by a protester then stopped another suspect was arrested earlier this morning around 300 where detained and the protests erupted conscious 9 arrests were made for violating the. Well the new law obliges China Hong Kong to establish 2 National Security bodies both accountable to beijing 4 types of crimes are listed subversion terrorism collusion with external forces which risk National Security penalties can be harsh up to life in prison the law has been condemned by u. S. Officials whove been taking swift action just before it was passed washington illinois but Hong Kong Special status would be revoked and the house of representatives approved sanctioning banks which cooperate with the officials who implemented the Hong Kong Security for beijing say its an intervention into its internal Affairs China has made its own country moves ordering for American News outlets to detail their activities after the u. S. Ordered Chinese Media firms to do the same. The law is a brutal sweeping crackdown against the people of hong kong intended to destroy the freedoms they were promised Free Hong Kong was one of the worlds most stable prosperous and dynamic cities now now weve just another communist run city were its people we subject to the party elites wimps we will continue to implement president trucks directive to end hong kongs special status. Issue concerning the National Security law it is not a human rights issue at all and it should not be politicized or few external forces using the excuse of human rights which are interfering in chinas internal and these are only if you see activities some youngsters going out to the streets if you do not violate the law you would not be prosecuted i think the one country that has rather been damaged by the riots in recent years now the chinese trying to fix it the situation in hong kong i think is many plaited and overly expectorated so that the u. S. Can have a better terms in the negotiation with china but i think for economic interests i think china still be very open to work with the u. S. To make the.
