Both candidates accepted the channel's invitation and agreed to the rules and format of the debate outlined in the letters sent by the channel.
Journalists write that according to the rules, the 90-minute debate will include two commercial breaks.
Both candidates will perform on the same podium, and their places on stage will be determined by a coin toss.
Microphones will be turned on during the broadcast only for candidates during the speech.
In addition, opponents will not be able to use the prepared notes, but they will have a pen, notepad and bottle of water at their disposal.
During the debate there will be no audience in the hall, and candidates will not be able to communicate with representatives of their campaign headquarters.
