And the communist nikolai had a total of whos been a member of the state do most since 1994 also leading the the Parliamentary Committee on Russias Arctic and far eastern development. Well, we now joined by a very special guest here with our studio audience and national elizabeth, one godaddy. You go to your one of the many of the see one of the Many International observers. What are you seeing so far . Is it looking legit . Good evening, rory, it has been totally transparent. No complaints on my side. I went to the civic chambers this evening or this afternoon, and the cameras on nova, with about 20 volunteers watching all pulling stations in russia. And the fact the 20 individuals are what almost 20. It could be slightly more watching all of us russia. Its effective, its efficient and im really impressed. Have you seen any areas where russia could improve on the election process . Any complaints from you . Perhaps . Um no at day one was a little bit worried when i went to the fast to pulling stations and i was just absolving elderly people voting and i had to ask my guide. And she told me the reason that youre not seeing young people there is because its a friday day of school and more so she added, but based on where they can do the electronic voting. Thats right. And i was so impressed. So you can be on your busy day like she was and i asked her when is she going to what she reminded me again, elizabeth, we have an up. I can book anytime amazing to hear with you. I can vote. So i mean, those are the things that i feel like i would call you back home. Yeah, yeah. We in kenya, we have so used to long pauline lions are the pulling station. I mean, if you have enough, it cuts the long pulling legs, but we have back home. Yeah. So yeah, for me, im just impressed. Is there any way that youve seen that anyone could try and stuff valid boxes or try on the, legitimize this election process . Honestly, i dont think so again, all pulling stations specific rooms have all the steve to cameras. I can tell you the portable model of boxes that ive taken home, most people who are disabled and unable to go to the police station. I was fortunate enough to actually see one be brought back with the votes costed, and the lady cut the seal right and took the volts out and fucked them in a sealed. She filled them and put them in the safe with your position as an International Election observer. When you hear about shelling or a tax on civilian areas, when people are trying to cost a vote, how does that make you feel and, and, and could you, could you be those of a, 1. 00 of those regions to try and help with people that people are trying to utah prospect election or transparent election, then im going to bomb the military. Theyre going to cause some disturbance with the civilians who actually supposed to be the ones costing the volt. Yeah, yeah, so this is expected, but i think the russian spirit is strong and that, but youre optic. The fact that this happened on day one and you still have people going out to vote on day 2 and probably will. The, the date of the 3 eights speaks, positive positive. Yeah. About the russian. Its very, it tells you something you talk about the russian spirit. Is he something about the resilience . Yes. Over the russians on the um, i want to tell the african the does the time to open. The eyes of health might not be coming from the west and might be coming from the beast. The folding stations are going from 8 am to 8 pm, and basically in the next couple of hours following stations reopen and rushes far east, i so confusing because theres so many times on here. So anyway, 11 time zones, and thats what it is. Now, admittedly, that help you know, a couple of trouble makers who have tried to solve the voting process, we can show you some footage, apparently a, some employees that upholding station prevented a woman from pouring green dye into a ballot box on friday. Several similar cases store a total of more than 200. 00 pallets ruined across some 20 regions of the country. All the perpetrators, the thing they will face up to 5 years in prison because you cant do that. The state property. Now election, Officials Say the suspects were apparently blackmailed by people that allegedly, as they say, the Election Officials are blaming ukraine and some weston countries. Now of course, the vote is also being in full swing in the newest and baffled russian regions. Despite the constant ukrainian threat of shelling and one pointing station is that all she recently came under a drone attack with no casualties reported. So kia did shell upholding station in the neighborhood of Southern Region on friday. I know this saturday, are you crazy and striking that same area killed one severely and then wounded for others according to local russian officials. And yet, despite all of that, the russians are still going out side. They are still going to the polls. I mean, it really tells you something about the resilience of the russian people, the determination, because at the end of the day, no matter where you are watching us from. If you been living in russia for any number of 1015 years, even in the past 5 years, you have been on the basing and of anti russian rhetoric or across the western media and political landscape. We felt it here. Were living on to 50, you know, more 1000 sanctions, certain western professional partners have been trying to destroy this country for years. And whats happened. Russia is now surviving and striving, and frankly, economically speaking as well, is doing better than its ever done. Now, when it comes to the newly liberated russian territory, is what about the big town of, of difficult, that was a, a big frontline hotspot . It was a lot of violence happening that, but its been liberated and people are focusing as all his old roman colored f. Now reports the only thing began in the reason that liberated city of, of dave, the people here, most of them are still living in the basement because the town was devastated vice battle in the recent years. Right now we dont want to be home shelter, square, and election permission setup voting both. So people can exercise their right now. All of these local residents, they used to have you create in passports, but since for the duration of our data, global storage is made. Everything possible for them to get their russian documents as soon as possible. And now they will vote in their 1st ever russian president ial election though is i am happy to go vote, but i will have to wait a bit. So they told us to stay home and the people would come help us cast our votes. There is so then ill come home and vote again. Okay, im just getting the vendors and the shortages. Im glad to be here. We didnt even expect to vote. The main thing is that we all roll together, but its also hard to explain all the good can be in this tiers. The past 3 weeks have already made it easier and we hope things will get even better. After were missing some really t or dropping things in the town of have days ago, which was devastated by battles were now heading to the net square high will be taking part in the russian president ial election. But right now we received the news that there are drones ukrainian jones flying right above us. So literally from here as soon as possible, the funds that we have made, its back to the mask safely from of the homeless leads and ask, its not as dangerous as it is over there, but were just about 17 kilometers away. So, but right now i can take this off and go and cast my both the. Ill leave this here, got my passport, the microphone look good, look presentable. Lets go on both. The, obviously the turn out here in damascus. Theyre quite high. You can see all these people came out here to load, so i guess ill take my place in line right now. The best part is can secret. Im sorry, the vote for for thursday and vote for the future. And simple is obviously for security and peace for all of us through the historic moment. The voting for the president s health, russia here in has done this, people have voted for the 1st time in the president ial and it started out on. So the great and voting will continue for the next 2 days. And of course well be here to cover room on a call for of hard to use. So thats for public stuff. But meanwhile in the try me and said you have a separate stuff. All the which of course were united with russia off to a referendum about a decade or so ago, low close. Theyve been out all day today, causing the votes yesterday as well. The 2nd time inside the russian citizens in that strategic Southern City of voting for the countries, the president and the foreign minister of russia. So get a lot for office hail the election day while also say the crimea the pulpit in. So theres not just a part of russia, it will always be a part of russia, which you will remember that disturbing a terrible spring when neo nazi ceased, how him, key of as a result of a bloody included tom. We also remember the notorious friendship trains which way equipped with the ideological follow as have been dare to suppress the inhabitants of the peninsula who did not want to give up the values that culture, that history and the centuries old traditions of the ancestors. The subsequent ends the crime in sanctions, the undermining of power lines, transport, energy and water blockades. Only convince crime means theyve made the right choice. The issue of ownership of crime, the answer basketball is closed, the peninsula is an integral part of the Russian Federation. Them well, however, the french president s are manual macro and whatever you will say about that very little now. And hes being really just going off the rush. I mean, not just ever since you crane kicked off a couple of years ago, but hes really just being lambaste thing. The Russian Federation. Also, the New Territory is also the crime. Then of course, i mean emanuel macro and hes got to be in his bonnet. These days, what can you do about it . Hes been saying the crimea should be seized. He said, sees crimea, take it away from the Russian Federation, and then that will be peace and stability that well, lets see what the people have cry me a thing as our correspondent audience, donal code. It does some good investigative like walk. Its been 10 years since crime, it took its fate into its own hands, voting to become part of russia and the peninsula has undergone a dramatic transformation all despite the western. Nay sayers who did everything in their power to see where unification fail. Once he grabbed connie, a pretended deployed move, a move ocean forces in the peninsula, turning the territory into an armed camp from which to threaten the risk of you crazy. We will continue to hold russia accountable until it returns full control of premier to ukraine and completely withdraws its forces. It is also important to acknowledge that the situation and economists republic of crayton year and the city of citrus, the pope, has further the terrier agents. A new crime is most grandiose project was likely the crime in bridge. Russias vital artery of transports through the curt, straight, a similar accomplishment was the construction of the to read the federal highway which sides grand opening in 2020. These are just 2 of many new pieces of infrastructure across the peninsula. And thats done wonders for people. Standard of living. Is it misleading it will do . A lot has changed over the years. First of all, we feel supported like ukraine has 10 sylvester pole into the backwoods. And now that the city is blaming you will do take a look at what the odds we have now. I teach you, we have an excellent tool to supply. Right. Do you understand here is i have received the russian citizenship. I have my own business. I bought an apartment and my daughter grew up here as a russian thought to us. We can see for ourselves what has happened in these 10 years. Pardon me, are officially left ukraine and joined to the Russian Federation in march of 2014. After over a whopping 96 percent of the population voted to do so in a historic referendum. Its a come as little surprise since both ukrainian and russian statistics show that russians have long made up the main Demographic Group on the peninsula as lot of airport and mentioned in his 2014 cry me a speech. Many of the seeds of chaos were found decades before. Like when former soviet general secretary, Nikita Khrushchev arbitrarily transferred crimea from russia to ukraine. It became clear the russian president s that in action would be a betrayal of his own people. A simple, somebody told us that those who resisted the push were immediately threatened with reprisals and punitive measures. And the 1st in line was of course, crimea, russian speaking crimea. Thats when the residence of creamier and say were still flu, appealed to russia to protect their rights and their lives. Of course we could not fail to respond to this request. We could not leave premier and its people in trouble. Otherwise, it would simply be a betrayal. It was necessary to help create conditions for a peaceful, Free Expression of will, so that the crime means could determine their own faith for the 1st time in history. But even after crimea returns to its motherland, struggles continued to persist like keeps blockade of nearly 90 percent of that potential as clean water supply. President s lensky, who thinks crime, he actually wants to come back to ukraine, was making jokes about the water situation back in 2015. What was the, the, just the 1st thing, you know . I paid, you cut out what was the see shows the notes of the video. So what seconds then there were the blackouts that would run for months on end, caused by kia backed extreme is to sabotage to power lines running to crimea. It was only after russia was able to commission to new power plants, but the Energy Problem was solved in 2019. The whole country helped us in the shortest possible time and energy bridge. A new power plants were built, as well as an upgrade to the existing Power Generation facilities. Today, for the 1st time in history, crime, me and not totally has ceased to be a region x bearings and power shortages, but can also supply surfaces of electricity outside its territory if necessary. There were new sanctions as well that the west targeted specifically a crimea, but that didnt stop countries like italy, greece and france from continuing to cooperate with the peninsula. On top of that, the republic is heading towards its 2nd president ial election in russia with a new generation of young people heading to the pulse. So the since 20 fold same Political Activities in crimea has appeared because before 2014, there was no use political agenda on the peninsula. Only up to the cabinet. Part of the Russian Federation did young people in crimea actively begin to be interested in politics. Mentors began to appear assistant and Guardian Young people. I think it is the duty of every citizen to vote, and every vote is important to the crime in us. Hold the same opinion. I see only a positive direction for the development of brian me and ill use as i am representative of use. I think the torres mode develop very actively and try me as well as the republic as it was, and miniature. And that you can find everything here. But despite pressure
