[00:01:24] Today is the final day of voting in the elections for deputies of the State Duma [00:01:28] in a number of regions. The election campaign for regional and [00:01:32] municipal executive authorities is also underway. According to the Central Election [00:01:35] Commission, voter turnout for the State Duma elections has already exceeded [00:01:38] 45%. In thirty-three regions, electronic [00:01:42] voting is available, and over 6 million Russians have already voted [00:01:46] online, half of whom are residents of the capital region. [00:01:49] This year, for the first time, residents of four regions of Donbass and [00:01:53] Novorossiya are participating in the Duma elections. [00:01:56] Polling stations abroad have opened, according to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. [00:02:04] In the elections for deputies of the State Duma of the ninth convocation, [00:02:07] 380 thousand observers are working, most of [00:02:10] whom were sent by parties. More than a thousand international [00:02:14] observers are also monitoring the voting process. The most [00:02:18] representative, the most representative, the most representative was [00:02:21] the mission from the Commonwealth of Independent States, as stated by [00:02:24] the Deputy Secretary General of the CIS, Ilkhom [00:02:27] Nematov. Again, yes. 207 people, [00:02:35] these are representatives of CIS [00:02:38] countries, CIS bodies, the Interparliamentary Assembly [00:02:41] and, naturally, the Interparliamentary Assembly of the [00:02:44] CSTO and the Union [00:02:46] State. [00:02:49] Well, now we have a live broadcast from the Central Election Commission. [00:02:53] During the current election campaign for deputies to the [00:02:56] State Duma, she took [00:03:00] an active part as a canvasser in the [00:03:04] Informuik project. She visited [00:03:06] many of her neighbors, [00:03:09] fellow citizens, [00:03:12] compatriots, [00:03:15] honestly, responsibly, and bravely performing her [00:03:18] duty, she conducted, participated in conducting [00:03:22] early voting in the [00:03:24] territory of the Kherson region. [00:03:28] Her [00:03:31] daughter, Petrovna, [00:03:34] is also a member of the precinct election commission. [00:03:38] Well, as I said before, and I will repeat it [00:03:41] now, the vile, [00:03:44] cowardly Banderites [00:03:46] in diapers, [00:03:48] who are afraid to fight [00:03:50] like men, for real, [00:03:54] that's why... [00:03:56] strong [00:04:51] in spirit, our colleagues [00:04:54] continue to work, and her daughter continues to work, therefore... [00:04:58] but we continue to work with you, [00:05:01] today is our final day [00:05:03] of voting, soon [00:05:07] the polling stations in the Far East will close, [00:05:10] and at 9 [00:05:12] PM Moscow time, the last polling [00:05:16] stations in the Kaliningrad region will close. [00:05:19] Let me give you some statistics: [00:05:25] at the moment, across the country, at all levels [00:05:28] of elections, more than 45% of [00:05:31] voters have voted, [00:05:33] but there is no news here, you can see all of this [00:05:37] at any time of day, [00:05:40] in online mode, you see it all, [00:05:44] so everything is brought [00:05:47] to your attention. [00:05:52] As for remote electronic voting, [00:05:56] over 3,300,000 [00:05:59] of our voters have already [00:06:00] voted [00:06:03] on the federal platform, and this accounts for [00:06:06] 83% of those who submitted [00:06:10] applications. [00:07:27] already exceeds 6 million. Well, I would like to draw attention to our experiment, we are very proud of it, because we are already receiving [00:07:31] grateful feedback from our colleagues, [00:07:34] and I want to tell you that [00:07:38] residents of one of the settlements of the Nenets Autonomous Okrug [00:07:42] were able to use remote electronic [00:07:46] voting using new generation [00:07:49] satellite communication by [00:07:53] transmitting data through [00:07:55] a low-orbit [00:07:58] satellite system from the Russian aerospace [00:08:02] company, which I now call [00:08:05] Bureau 1440. [00:08:07] I want to thank our colleagues [00:08:11] and [00:08:14] partners for their understanding, for the fact that all this [00:08:18] time we have consistently worked, and [00:08:22] this is an incredibly important project, an incredibly important one, which [00:08:25] will really allow us to reach the most [00:08:29] remote areas where there is no internet [00:08:32] to ensure voting with minimal [00:08:35] costs, [00:08:38] where usually this requires enormous resource [00:08:41] mobilization, time, and effort, and [00:08:45] finances, and so on. And this [00:08:48] is a great victory for us, a joint one. The voting went very [00:08:52] successfully. The residents are very happy. I [00:08:55] want, I ask you, please, show [00:08:59] the video, and then [00:09:02] the chairman of the election commission of the Nenets [00:09:06] Autonomous Okrug, Ivan Ivanovich Makarov, will contact us. [00:09:08] Please. [00:09:12] We had [00:10:29] a satellite [00:10:35] communication session. We had been preparing for this for a long time, and the colleagues who came from [00:10:39] Bureau 14:40 worked the day before, and [00:10:43] not everything went smoothly the first time, but in the end, [00:10:46] we managed to vote, and adults were happy, [00:10:50] they were happy just like children about this [00:10:54] fact. Because, well, I am not very [00:10:57] strong in space ballistics, using residual knowledge, [00:11:01] so to speak, of school physics and astronomy, but to me it [00:11:05] looks - how to say, not just cool, but [00:11:08] super cool, when our Russian [00:11:11] domestic proprietary satellite communication system helps [00:11:14] us to vote remotely in elections - during [00:11:18] the federal election campaign, for us, for our region, this is [00:11:22] extremely important, and not just... from the point of view [00:11:25] of participation in elections, but also in all other [00:11:28] sectors of work, including in [00:11:31] medicine, and in [00:11:34] reindeer herding. We have vast territories, you [00:11:37] know, this is our specificity, the specificity of the Nenets Autonomous [00:11:41] Okrug, a large part of [00:11:45] the region's territory is classified as hard-to-reach. [00:11:48] We have almost a third of voters living and [00:11:51] working in these territories. Here, [00:11:53] even stationary internet is not yet available everywhere. Out [00:11:57] of 24 settlements, nine are not even [00:12:01] provided with stationary internet, but [00:12:04] we see now, that before our eyes, [00:12:08] over the last 3 years, since 2023, [00:12:10] we have been working with remote voting, this is already the fifth campaign with [00:12:14] DEG for us, and we see that our [00:12:18] voters are interested in this, this is visible both in [00:12:21] the number of applicants [00:12:25] for remote voting, and this is visible in the [00:12:28] turnout and the number [00:12:31] of people who [00:12:33] voted remotely in every election. We [00:12:37] understand that, of course, most of our remote voters are [00:12:40] urban, where there is stationary internet. [00:12:43] Rural voters are a little bit behind [00:12:47] in this regard, but precisely because there is [00:12:51] no such full-fledged connection, and here it is not just... [00:12:56] a full-fledged internet [00:12:59] satellite connection, which will work, among other things, in hard-to-reach areas, where [00:13:03] in principle, there are no [00:13:06] settlements and no infrastructure whatsoever. [00:13:10] Yes, I thank you, respected Ivan [00:13:14] Ivanovich, yes, I wish you a successful [00:13:17] election. Thank you. [00:13:21] This was a live broadcast of the briefing by the chairman. In the morning, his vote in the elections [00:13:32] for deputies to the State Duma was cast by the chairman of [00:13:35] the LDPR, Leonid Slutsky. He came to one of the Moscow schools, [00:13:39] at this polling station, the politician has been voting for many years, [00:13:42] together with Slutsky came his eighty-year-old mother. At [00:13:46] the polling station, the politician was met by the public figure, grandson of the former President [00:13:50] of France Charles de Gaulle, Pierre de Gaulle. [00:13:53] Vladimir Putin stated this, congratulating [00:14:57] the newly elected president on Republic Day. The Russian leader [00:15:01] noted that bilateral relations are developing in the spirit of good neighborliness [00:15:04] and alliance. Cooperation is proceeding in various directions, [00:15:08] including strengthening regional security and stability. [00:15:11] This work, according to Vladimir Putin, will [00:15:15] be [00:15:15] continued. [00:15:20] Russian troops carried out group strikes on targets in the rear of the AFU. The [00:15:24] Ministry of Defense reported. In the Kyiv region, a Firepoint company [00:15:27] warehouse in Boyarka was hit, containing [00:15:30] components and starter boosters for long-range drones, [00:15:34] a large fire broke out. In the port of Odessa, [00:15:37] a sea vessel with military equipment arrived. In the suburbs, [00:15:40] a New Post logistics center where incoming defense [00:15:44] cargo for Ukraine was distributed. In the port of Chornomorsk, [00:15:47] two Geran-4 series drones hit a tanker, which was [00:15:51] used to deliver cargo in the interests of the enemy. In [00:15:54] Konotop, Sumy region, Right company warehouses with [00:15:58] weapons, military equipment, and drone components were hit. In [00:16:01] Zaporizhzhia region, the bridge in the Kamysevakha area [00:16:04] was severely damaged. The AFU used it to deliver weapons. [00:16:14] Ukrainian publications also reported explosions in [00:16:31] up early and waiting for the whole country [00:16:33] to wake up. [00:16:37] when there are opportunities, you can't wait.

[00:19:57] In Germany, [00:20:09] today there are elections to the state parliament of Mecklenburg- [00:20:13] Western Pomerania, as well as to the House of Representatives of Berlin. Voting [00:20:17] at polling stations has already begun. Experts predict [00:20:20] another defeat for the ruling Merz coalition. Our special correspondent [00:20:24] in Germany, Maria Skorodilo, is monitoring [00:20:27] the situation in the country. [00:20:29] This square in the German capital has seen various crowds of people, here at [00:20:33] Berlin City Hall, for a reason, always. [00:20:37] They are tired of the politics imposed from above, politics that serves [00:20:40] the interests of corporations and very rich people, and not those who ensure [00:20:44] the functioning of our city every day with their labor and dedication. [00:20:48] Merz is worse today and... Because [00:21:50] most of our [00:21:58] money goes to the US for weapons [00:22:11] systems or to Israeli defense companies, like in Saxony- [00:22:14] Anhalt now. Then there's no need to be surprised when tomorrow attacks on pension [00:22:17] funds begin. Money will be dragged from there. You can't simultaneously fight [00:22:21] against social welfare cuts and remain silent when Merz and his friends shout about [00:22:24] rearmament. People are tired of the fear of war that the coalition [00:22:27] is literally trying to instill in Germans. [00:22:30] The politics of the German authorities today only destroys the country, the opposition [00:22:34] believes. Merz and his associates sit in power and silence the voices [00:22:38] of all those who disagree with them with military rhetoric. [00:22:41] They hope for popularity, but everything turns out [00:22:45] differently. Accusing Russia of provocations, they hold... [00:22:48] ready to vote for [00:24:20] "Alternative for Germany." The Social Democrats are currently in first [00:24:23] place. Merz's party is maximally unpopular. Only [00:24:27] 6% of voters are ready to [00:24:29] vote for it. Maria Skorodilo, Vesti, [00:24:33] Germany. [00:24:36] The Republic of Srpska and Donbass have similar fates. In 1999, [00:24:39] NATO's operation led to the death of hundreds of civilians in Belgrade. [00:24:43] Today, similar atrocities are committed by Ukrainian Nazis in [00:24:46] Donbass. On how people continue to fight for their rights, [00:24:50] in our documentary film, watch it immediately after [00:24:52] the commercial. [00:25:01] In Vladivostok, they are used to waking up early and waiting for the whole country [00:25:05] to wake up. But when great opportunities arise in business, [00:25:08] you can't wait. A business loan at [00:25:12] Tank is more convenient than you're used to. Find out your approved amount in one [00:25:15] minute. Now no one will say that we're swimming in shallow waters.

Loans without [00:28:29] hidden fees and insurance in the Compare app. Compare [00:28:33] is the number one service for applying for loans online. [00:28:49] For holy Rus, I [00:28:53] pray, [00:28:56] I always pray for my family, my [00:28:59] friends, too. [00:29:40] I really wanted to meet with Russian fighters, and I can tell you, [00:29:43] they are all [00:29:44] heroes. [00:29:48] This is the Russian, Serbian coat of arms, Orthodox brothers, and [00:29:52] Serbian and Russian peoples, throughout history, have [00:29:56] never attacked anyone, and both Serbian and Russian peoples have always [00:29:59] defended themselves, for Serbia, for Russia. [00:31:02] You have to walk on solid ground, on solid ground, Ukrainian [00:31:06] positions were here for a very long time, [00:31:10] until ours drove them out, then the Russian [00:31:13] army came and started waiting for them. This is the territory [00:31:16] of the hospital, or what [00:31:18] is left of it. [00:31:22] It is well known that NATO attacked us in the Republic of Srpska in [00:31:26] 1995 to help [00:31:29] the Bosniaks and Croats occupy part of our territory. [00:31:32] It is known how NATO reacted, [00:31:35] bombing Serbia in 1999. [00:31:39] They took Kosovo and Metohija from us, and [00:31:42] I think this woke up the Russian people so that something similar would not [00:31:46] happen to them. [00:31:50] Here is the city of Marinka, now we can see what is [00:31:54] left of the city. Shells still arrive sometimes.
