10:01 am
northern pakistan. also flooding in the big apple heavy rainfall in new york city, submerges streets and brings transportation to a grinding halt. the we start with what looks like a growing crisis on the border between serbia and northern coast of the us government as war and the serbian government to stop building up its military forces in the region. tensions re ignited last week after 12 hours shoot down to northern coast of o 3 ethnics or a gunmen were killed. so was one coast of our police officer, the nato peacekeeping force and northern coast and most as its increasing its presence. their serbia denies accusations that it was responsible, blames the unrest on coast of those policies towards its ethnics or minority. i was good now lacrosse because i had a long phone conversation, not an easy one with us secretary of state anthony blinking regarding the situation
10:02 am
and costs of us. there's a few things we agreed on and a few things we did not agree on. we did agree there's a need for the escalation and a greater role for nato peacekeeping forces. there are lots with what i would say to president, which is just stop messing up with coastal coastal is going to defend its freedom, its independence, and it's a vanity. at any price. there is no way back, kosovo is a sovereign country and it will be so forever. the disputes around and goes to low a centuries old, but it worse and in the 1990 is after the breakup of yugoslavia coast of those predominantly ethnic albanian when ethnics are minority and 1998 ethnic albanian arm groups launched the rebellion to end. disturb you and rule that lead to a violent response by serbian forces. 13000 people were killed. a year later, nato intervene bombed serbia and forced it to pull out his troops. since then, international peacekeeping. peacekeepers have been present in kosovo with about
10:03 am
4000 nato soldiers, and 2008 kosovo, declared its independence. move rejected by serbia. helena, even office and associate research fellow at henry jackson society. she joins us from the serbian capital bell. great, helena, what do you make of the serbian military build up that has the us and nato concert as well? i think this is sort of expected, i think even if we think about previous rounds of escalations, usually when they happen president booted would be inclined to increase the military presence in the region. so i think it's pretty much consistent with what we have both seen before. in previous rounds of escalations. okay, so you're saying this is par for the course. each time we look at an incident like the one that occurred on sunday and a flare up of tensions in northern coast of oh, you know, the question is pretty much the same. is that, are we looking at a, at a, something that's gonna remain local or does this raise questions about the wider
10:04 am
relations between bill grade and kosovo, made maybe intervention by bill grade etc. rates. the incident that we saw last sunday and the significance of it? well, i think that for as long as the escape or troops which are nato peacekeeping troops based in cost of, of course, on this k for is present and cost about i don't think that we are likely to see a lot more between. so it'd be uncomfortable or a rupture ukraine scenario where serve you potentially invades possible. i think both of those scenarios are exceedingly unlikely because k force presents there means that both sides are severely the turns from escalating this beyond repair. but also at the same time, it means that if an item of decides was to escalate substantially, k for and the international community more generally would be able to respond quickly as quickly. so i think that these escalations really do not have a potential to become a war, but they never the lives do make the situation quite have staple. and of course, lots of people in north of comfortable, particularly, extremely difficult. all right? speaking of k 4 and 4 of yours, by the way though, that's the name of the nato contingent of nato troops in kosovo,
10:05 am
the serbian president, we heard him a moment ago say that he agreed with the us secretary of state anthony, blinking. there is a need for a greater role for k, for, for the nato forces. what do we mean? what is serbia want here? the only thing basically, the idea is that instead of costs about police being in charge of insuring security in the north, which is currently the state as quotes or believes that having k for as a sort of international security as also someone who was seen as independent and impartial would be way more functional for the north of cost about this is our new proposal. there have been certain diplomatic forces, claiming that this was a discussion already of the un general assembly 2 days ago. the prime minister of all the albany also came out in support of this. so the idea is, let's not have cost of ours or service in charge of best, but instead, let's have case. busy let's have the international troops. let's have someone who is impartial. and of course this is a non starter from the point of view of the coast of all authorities. because if
10:06 am
you look at it from, from their side, they want, would they consider their police obviously to mark their territory and police their streets? yes, although i do think that to this particular proposal, they might be more open to negotiation. i think the broader problems here, of course, is that also is pretty much against anything which costs of those fees as in putting on their territorial integrity into tauriel sovereignty. but i think that paid for his presence and particularly given customs alliance like with made to the general agreement with natal. i think k 4 would be a less problematic proposal from cost of his point of view as well. where does this leave normalization talks between serbia and coast of a to i think even before the latest round of escalation, normalization folks found themselves in a deadlock last round of talks, which was held about 2 weeks ago now. and ended by prime minister could be leaving the talks and abandon and rejecting the e u compromised proposal, which stipulated that costs but my fulfill its obligation from 2013 and begin the
10:07 am
creation of the association of cert municipalities. i think normalisation folks generally have been standing for quite some time. now. mostly we either see certain deals accepted but nothing really implemented in practice. and in the last round, as i've mentioned, no proposal was even accepted. and of course, each round of escalation just makes these normalization talks even more difficult. so i'm not particularly optimistic about their success and potential helena, even of associated research fellow the henry jackson society. thank you so much for joining us today. voting is under way in a presidential run off election in the mall. these it's seen as an important vote in terms of regional geo politics. incumbents. president abraham, sola is closer to india wiley's challenge. and mohammed lees favors ties with china . the opposition candidate. that'd be september. 9th vote, but there was no out right winner and that has led to this run off. tony chang is covering this for us and he joins us now from the polling station and muller and tony. you follow this from the beginning from the 1st round of voting,
10:08 am
leading up to this date, give us a taste of what it's like the hit, the mall, the campaign trail, the. it's been a very long row for these 2 major candidates. the 2 are left standing, campaigning started about 6 weeks ago that you have to bear in mind the most of these is know, like most countries, there are a 188, inhabited island spread out of, of thousands of kilometers. both of these 2 candidates have been trying to get to a bit as many of those places as they possibly can. some of them have historical allegiances, the various parties. others have seen major developments in the last couple of years. something that both found as a trying to take place both. so they've been trying to get out the travel across the country. they say they've been listening to voters and that concerns as well. but also you've got the capital molly with about 50 percent of the electricity is concentrated in this sort of city island state. so a lot of work to do here. we sold both candidates,
10:09 am
come back about 48 hours ago and immediately hit the campaign trip. to be honest, they both looked pretty tired by this stage. but it has been a very long roads to voting day to the fishing boats offload the catch of gillis in tuna outside. molly's central monkey, but it's not just the rising price of fish. that's got people's attention over the past 2 weeks. 2 the presidential elections look as if they going down to the one this fund to solve it. they cannot make performance. they're all consumes. the current administration has lived up to expectations. this new government came into power with lead does to hold. um, people are comfortable that will commission said to a man specifically to look into human rights abuses, did some disappearance as for example, um, but the only hasn't been an outcome. what they have managed to do is keep major infrastructure projects like this on track land,
10:10 am
reclaim from the see the housing and industrial use. those candidates pledge to keep these projects good. the current president using money borrowed from india, the challenger tending back to china. some fear that could lead the multi cold in a game of cheer, politics, us, the president sola has been going back to basics on the election trail. became 7 points behind his main rival in the 1st round of the boat and has a lot of ground to make up for us today. and so the, just the whole, the on the go, a lot of work to opinion polls really does need to decide this will be that the is don't miss pools alone line of votes as q up for this self . the with the president, no one tend to weigh north when every, the accounts across town, the opposition candidates hosting a live q and

10:13 am
civil society structures a strong enough so that they even have a policy does come into about that wants to start trying to manipulate things again that the structures and now family in place for, for them all these to survive relatively intact. and that's what we're hearing to from election moments as we've just spoken to the you. they say, well, this thing and the election stay, everything seems to be above board. the mold is the certainly moving in the right direction. they say there is still a lot of issues to deal with, particularly the role of women in politics and civil society. for the most part, phonology supposed to be going in the right direction. all right, tony chang with voting going on behind you. it is just past 12 o'clock where you are. thank you very much for your reporting will speak you later today. as the lock is loading to elect his fist prime minister in 4 years pro russian former prime minister robert pico is up against the liberal leader. because seneca,
