[00:01:13] How the elections are going in our huge country, we will find out in a live
[00:01:16] broadcast from the Central Election Commission and from our correspondents in Crimea in
[00:01:20] Donetsk, how the new regions are choosing, despite
[00:01:24] the attempts of the Kyiv regime to disrupt the process. Our
[00:01:27] guarantees are working at these minutes.
[00:01:42] In two regions of Germany at once, the ruling party has
[00:01:45] fewer and fewer chances to stay in power.
[00:01:49] Unpleasant news for Macron: Trump colored the French lands in
[00:01:52] North America in the colors of the USA, and at the very
[00:01:56] moment when the leader of the Fifth Republic was there.
[00:02:00] Water up to the waist on the streets, in stores, in buses in
[00:02:03] Sochi, a flood and what kind of cyclone is approaching
[00:02:06] the capital region, what should
[00:02:08] we expect?
[00:02:18] And we start with the main topic of the elections to the State Duma. It has just
[00:02:21] become known that the turnout has exceeded
[00:02:24] 50%. And more than 3.5 million Russians have already
[00:02:28] voted online.
[00:02:30] And today it became known about new losses among employees of
[00:02:33] election commissions. Tragic news came from the Kherson region,
[00:02:37] where a Ukrainian drone hit a bus. The Investigative Committee has already
[00:02:40] opened a criminal case on terrorism. The Central Election Commission is
[00:02:44] live. My colleague, Tatiana Remizova, is coming out right now.
[00:02:47] Tatiana, hello, how did they react to this attack there at
[00:02:51] the Central Election Commission? Evgeny, hello, the Central Election Commission
[00:02:55] expressed deep condolences to the relatives, friends, and
[00:02:59] colleagues of Olga Demyanenko. And here at the CEC,
[00:03:02] a minute of silence was announced
[00:03:05] in memory of the deceased. Olga Demyanenko
[00:03:08] worked in the election system since 2023, was
[00:03:11] a member of the 220th precinct election commission
[00:03:14] of the Nizhneserogozhsky district of the Kherson region. During this election
[00:03:18] campaign, she actively participated in the project of targeted informing
[00:03:22] voters, in conducting early voting, went around many
[00:03:25] of her neighbors, fellow citizens, and compatriots, honestly, responsibly,
[00:03:28] and bravely fulfilled her
[00:04:39] duty. Tatiana, in the Far East, this
[00:04:41] voting
[00:04:51] day, it seems, is already coming to an end. The polling stations in Transbaikalia
[00:04:55] and Yakutia have just closed. What is known about voter activity? Katya
[00:04:58] Minus? News from just the last few minutes,
[00:05:02] indeed, the turnout across the country has exceeded
[00:05:04] 50%. Voting is quite
[00:05:08] active. As for remote electronic
[00:05:11] voting, on the federal platform, more than
[00:05:14] 3,300,000 voters have already voted, and this is
[00:05:18] 83% of those who applied for
[00:05:21] this form of expression of will. In Moscow,
[00:05:24] more than 2,800,000 people voted remotely, that
[00:05:28] is, a total of more than 6 million made their choice
[00:05:31] electronically. This number, of course, will grow.
[00:05:34] There is still enough time to come to the polling
[00:05:37] stations in person and make your choice electronically. Despite
[00:05:41] the difficult international
[00:07:12] family tradition, but we continue to monitor the voting
[00:07:15] in real time, here at the information
[00:07:19] center of the CEC of Russia. Evgeny, Tatiana, thank you,
[00:07:23] the elections continue, stay in touch, my colleague
[00:07:26] Tatiana Remizova had the latest data from the Central Election Commission.
[00:07:30] Another attack aimed at disrupting elections in the border areas in
[00:07:33] the Zaporozhye region, there the AFU struck a school where a
[00:07:37] polling station was located. The left wing suffered serious
[00:07:40] damage, walls collapsed, windows were broken. This is an
[00:07:44] active school, about 200 children study there, no one
[00:07:47] was injured, there were no people in the building at that moment, early voting took place here, by
[00:07:51] the time of the attack, it had already
[00:07:54] ended. Despite the tense situation,
[00:07:58] residents of the DPR and Novorossiya actively participate in the elections, they are taking part
[00:08:02] in them for the first time, the intensity of the AFU strikes on election day
[00:08:06] has greatly increased, and despite all this, people come to the polling
[00:08:10] stations and cast their votes. A report by Vitaly
[00:08:14] Starushchenko. Cities of the Donetsk People's Republic
[00:08:17] Enemy UAVs attack daily. In Gorlovka, on the second day
[00:08:21] of voting, a passenger bus was hit. 12 people, including
[00:08:25] two children, were injured. As we can see, the drone hit the
[00:08:29] front part, pierced the metal through and through, everything around
[00:08:32] is riddled with shrapnel. Natalya Klyueva and her daughter were sitting next to
[00:08:36] the driver, going for a medical examination. I
[00:08:39] didn't even feel that I was injured.
[00:08:42] I just saw that my child, mom, mom, and then I only paid attention
[00:08:46] to myself, despite everything, residents come to the polling
[00:08:50] stations and cast their votes. The situation in
[00:08:53] Gorlovka, of course, is restless, we all know about it, but
[00:08:57] despite this, of course, we are going
[00:09:00] to vote, residents of Mariupol also feel part of a large
[00:09:03] family, they went to vote even after being left without electricity after
[00:09:06] another AFU strike on the republic's energy system,
[00:09:10] thanks to the fact that Russian troops are moving the front,
[00:10:25] more than 600,000 people and some cast their votes
[00:10:28] remotely from Sevastopol our correspondent Yana
[00:10:31] Shcherbaty. People go to the polling stations of Crimea
[00:10:35] with their families from the very opening. I think about the future
[00:10:38] of my grandson, the future should be good, kind,
[00:10:42] peaceful. Well, as always, everyone wants a bright, good
[00:10:46] future. We will hope that they will justify our
[00:10:49] trust. Civic duty, civic duty. May
[00:10:53] everything be well with the state. Half of the voters in Sevastopol have already
[00:10:56] cast their votes, a little less in the neighboring republic. Polling
[00:11:00] stations in Crimea and Sevastopol opened today on schedule exactly at 8:00 a.m.
[00:11:04] without any incidents, but they are ready for any provocations on the peninsula today.
[00:11:07] In addition to enhanced security measures, each polling station is equipped
[00:11:11] with uninterrupted power supply. Election day
[00:11:14] in Sevastopol today began with air raid sirens, another air
[00:11:17] raid alert, but Ukrainian drones are not capable
[00:11:20] of breaking the will of Crimeans. This is especially important
[00:11:24] today, they are just.
[00:11:55] security and those who come to us
[00:11:58] to vote. Problems with communication will not prevent voting.
[00:12:02] The Internet works with interruptions during air attacks, but everyone
[00:12:06] will be able to make a choice, even despite the difficult conditions. This year,
[00:12:09] since there are problems with communication, with the Internet, there is
[00:12:13] such an innovation: a person who registered
[00:12:16] earlier for electronic voting can
[00:12:20] contact us at the polling station and vote directly at
[00:12:23] the polling station. If you haven't managed to cast your vote yet, there is still
[00:12:27] time, more than a thousand polling stations on the peninsula continue to work, as throughout
[00:12:30] the country, until 8 p.m. Yana Shcherbaty, Andrey Terentyev,
[00:12:34] Irina Podasyonova, Vesti, Crimea.
[00:12:37] And in Karachay-Cherkessia, the elections for the head of the republic have ended. According to
[00:12:41] the results of the parliamentary vote, Rashid Temrezov won
[00:12:44] there. All 48 deputies voted
[00:12:48] unanimously for him. This is already Temrezov's fourth term in this
[00:12:51] post, he has headed the republic since 2011. person,
[00:13:25] while in
[00:13:28] Moldova, the authorities allowed only one polling
[00:13:31] station to open. In Thailand, you can vote in Bangkok
[00:13:35] in resort areas, including Phuket, more than a thousand
[00:13:38] people have made their choice. Polling stations are open in
[00:13:42] North Korea, where MGIMO students,
[00:13:45] who are undergoing internships at Kim Il-sung
[00:13:48] University, are voting. In Kazakhstan, eight polling stations are open, two of
[00:13:52] them in the capital, the situation at them is lively.
[00:14:38] Strikes on airbases near Kyiv and ships in the port of Odessa, what is happening in the SMO zone,
[00:14:41] why Mers is anxiously awaiting the results of today's elections
[00:14:45] in the regions of Germany and how Trump and Macron will divide the islands in
[00:14:48] the Atlantic, what happened, in a couple of minutes we will return and tell
[00:14:52] you everything.
[00:15:00] a lot of events on which the future
[00:15:02] depends,
[00:15:05] aviation, gasification, Russia, possessing
[00:15:08] the world's largest gas reserves, observes European
[00:15:12] leaders calling it unbearable,
[00:15:15] suffering from the consequences, fuel
[00:15:17] prices,
[00:15:21] we again felt the bitter price, but they wanted to make it unbearable.
[00:15:26] The lives of Russians will suffer, a boomerang will return everything, what
[00:15:29] other advice, to press the button, we
[00:15:32] turn the valve, it should have been heard a long time ago, just
[00:15:36] press the button.
[00:20:09] This is Vesti, we continue the broadcast: Russian jet drones
[00:20:13] have been spotted over Kyiv and the Kyiv region at these minutes,
[00:20:16] loud explosions are reported at Zhuliany airport at
[00:20:20] Vasylkiv airbase. Authorities recommend residents to close windows
[00:20:24] and limit their time outdoors due to smoke and fires. According to
[00:20:28] our Ministry of Defense, last night Russian military struck warehouses of the
[00:20:31] Firepoint company in the Ukrainian capital. There, militants
[00:20:34] stored launch accelerators for UAVs.
[00:20:37] and also in the city a high-voltage
[00:20:41] substation was put out of order.
[00:20:47] in the Black Sea area...
[00:20:50] to destroy vessels carrying weapons, ammunition, and fuel to Ukraine.
[00:20:54] In the Odessa region, a new modification of a drone hit precisely an
[00:20:57] automobile bridge, through which the AFU transports
[00:21:01] military cargo. The superiority of Russian long-range
[00:21:04] strike weapons does not leave the covers of world publications. According to
[00:21:07] the Financial Times, as a result of missile strikes in Ukraine,
[00:21:11] the entire steel industry has been destroyed. On the ruins
[00:21:14] of the last plant in the country in Kirov in Krivoy Rog, the director
[00:21:18] of the enterprise declared to the British readers and viewers the difficult
[00:21:22] news, according to him, the restoration of such capacities, if it is
[00:21:25] possible, will take
[00:21:27] decades.
[00:21:30] elections are being held today in two regions of Germany at once, residents
[00:21:34] of these territories are actually deciding the fate of the chancellor. In case of a new
[00:21:38] crushing defeat of the CDU party, the chances of
[00:21:41] Mers retaining power will be few. The mood of
[00:21:45] voters is influenced by record fuel prices and the escalation
[00:21:48] of military hysteria. And now with us live from
[00:21:52] Schwerin, this is in northern Germany, is our European correspondent Anastasia
[00:21:55] Popova. Nastya, hello, how is the voting going and what are they
[00:21:59] saying?
[00:22:02] Hello, well, behind me is that very Landtag, it is
[00:22:06] the parliament of Mecklenburg, Western
[00:22:09] Pomerania, and here, in fact, for seats,
[00:22:13] parties are fighting here, here are more than 70 seats and about
[00:22:16] a third plans to be occupied by the opposition, the alternative for...
[00:22:29] The sky over the city cleared, it was blue, and he perceived it as a good sign,
[00:22:33] the color of the party is blue, he said that perhaps this will
[00:22:36] help them, after such a long election campaign
[00:22:39] to take a large number of seats, in fact, what they are going
[00:22:42] to the elections with, against Merz's policy, against
[00:22:46] further escalation, against pushing the country to war.
[00:23:20] completely,
[00:23:23] but it's not that simple, the Social Democrats have a fairly strong
[00:23:27] candidate here, the current premier, she, of course, also
[00:23:30] tried in every possible way to distance herself from Merz, and at
[00:23:34] the same time gave hope to citizens
[00:23:37] that changes would still happen, they remembered here
[00:23:40] that she at one time advocated the preservation of the Northern
[00:23:44] flows, but then the conjuncture changed,
[00:23:47] she was forced to take another position.
[00:24:10] Many people came up to me and said that they hoped for a favorable
[00:24:13] outcome, that they supported me, and not only traditional
[00:24:17] SPD voters, for this I can only...
[00:24:41] His rating dropped to 14%, the party has 18%, and here
[00:24:44] in this state it is very noticeable, because
[00:24:47] his party risks not even getting into
[00:24:50] parliament, if it does, it will only get a minimal
[00:24:54] percentage, from five to six, for him this is of course
[00:24:58] a serious defeat, at the same time elections are taking place in Berlin, and there
[00:25:01] again the chancellor's party is suffering
[00:25:04] a defeat and most likely will take second place, for him this will of course be
[00:25:08] a strong blow, but how much should we expect him to resign, unlikely,
[00:25:12] although more than half of Germans believe that Merz should leave before
[00:25:15] the end of the year, but they haven't found a successor yet, so now
[00:25:19] around 5 p.m. he should gather his cabinet and decide what to do
[00:25:23] next.
[00:25:25] Nastya, thank you, how everything changes, right? My colleague Anastasia
[00:25:29] Popova was with us live from Germany, where elections to local
[00:25:32] parliaments are being held in two federal states today.
[00:25:36] New territorial disputes in the USA, according to the map published by Donald Trump,
[00:25:40] very soon disputes will break out not only over Greenland,
[00:25:44] but over French lands. On social networks, the head of the White House completely
[00:25:48] colored North America in... regional
[00:26:45] security and stability.
[00:26:49] Now we will return to the main topic of the elections to the State Duma. The counting
[00:26:52] of votes has already begun in almost all regions of the Far
[00:26:56] East. In Kamchatka, the turnout
[00:26:58] exceeded 46%, in Primorye, where about.
[00:27:41] how did it happen that guerrillas in flip-flops control world oil
[00:27:45] supplies?
[00:27:48] where did the Houthis come from and why no one could conquer
[00:27:52] Yemen, this is a war in which Egypt suffered
[00:27:55] the greatest losses in its history, in the USA
[00:27:59] they are shocked by diesel prices.
[00:28:02] American energy independence ends where
[00:28:06] the world market sets the rules. What do I
[00:28:09] think about gasoline prices? It's awful! European
[00:28:13] self-shooting, how the EU deprived itself of energy and
[00:28:16] economy.
[00:28:21] millions of people have to choose between food, housing and
[00:28:23] travel. What next, at what oil price
[00:28:26] does Moscow leave? I really want to tell them, let's better
[00:28:30] live in peace, otherwise. because we will also have
[00:28:34] to answer,
[00:28:37] oh my goodness, we are cutting Ukraine off from supplies from
[00:28:40] Europe.
[00:28:44] Russia has done it, Russia has made a technological breakthrough,
[00:28:47] rare footage of S-300 at the front, just press the buttons,
[00:28:51] that's it, the missile
[00:28:52] is gone,
[00:28:56] the shield of Russia in Grigory Vdovin's report. One
[00:28:59] launcher - four missiles, but there are many
[00:29:02] such launchers here. Who stole 27 billion dollars
[00:29:06] of Western aid, a cosmic
[00:29:08] deficit,
[00:29:10] Western leaders - this is all one team, they want
[00:29:14] money, the escape of Prosecutor General
[00:29:18] Kravchenko and his young
[00:29:19] wife,
[00:29:22] how Zelensky almost destroyed Kyiv, he demanded
[00:29:26] to blow up bridges, he demanded to blow up metro stations.
[00:29:30] Mecklenburg is selling off Merz. I was elected
[00:29:33] for 4 years, who does Lubmin choose, where
[00:29:36] is Nord Stream idle? Those who vote for Merz should be brought
[00:29:40] here for excursions, and then they are surprised by the amounts in
[00:29:43] their bills. Secret nuclear walls
[00:29:45] of China.
[00:29:50] The Motherland needs not only a sword soaring in the blue sky, but also a shield
[00:29:54] hidden deep in the earth. Beijing for the first time showed its
[00:29:57] arsenals. It was built at the order of Mao
[00:30:01] Zedong in case of a nuclear strike, a report from
[00:30:04] the Middle Kingdom and the main results of the elections to
[00:30:07] the State Duma live on air.
[00:30:10] Vesti Nedeli, Sunday at 8 p.m., don't
[00:30:14] miss it.
[00:30:19] Vesti continues to follow the developments in Russia and abroad,
[00:30:22] so stay with
[00:30:23] us.
[00:30:39] Hello, we again have the main stories that
[00:30:43] happened nearby, my name is Yaroslav Krasienko, this is the week in
[00:30:46] the city and this is how our correspondents
[00:30:49] saw it.
[00:30:55] The operation lasted about 6 hours,
[00:30:59] under the mask of a surgeon, what is happening with...
