a twenty year sentence for war crimes and crimes against humanity even and he was about to go to prison for what would probably be the rest of his life the judge confirmed a twenty year sentence and then this. i'm not a war criminal i oppose this conviction. stop place police adult confusion at first and then an attempt to move on to other business. interests that judge was dealing with the next case calls from within the court the convicted military chief said he had taken action. i have taken poison gradually his claim is repeated the potential gravity of the situation sinks in and court officials move to halt the proceedings and take him for medical attention. ok.

we spend the. spend at least the curtains. more from the vest that tercel it sure is director of document a civil society organization in zagreb that's been tracking war crimes cases related to events in the former yugoslavia welcome to day w. what does it say about the court security arrangements that a war criminal can take his own life there. of course because you are but in situation when you know that on december twenty first who are going to close. your all investigation make sense but not have lasting consequences do you see this as an act of defiance on the part of slower than probably his refusal to accept that he's done anything wrong. i believe that he remained

really. committed to what he believes in all door to get that he committed suicide and i really regret. that this appeal verdict. and. giving a chance to all of us to think again in which part of actions croatia have been involved in the france in bosnia and herzegovina any leech part of actions. one sentence today has been actually crimes that happened. it's a missed opportunity. now these are events that happened more than twenty years ago twenty five years ago in fact in your organization to work something out of the dialogue in that region as a way of coming to terms with the horrors of that war has that been difficult. it's very difficult yes the wars have been very complex immigration in

bosnia-herzegovina and of course well in the one country it's a simple story of aggression and aggression have started from the sides of their own sort of b.n.c. leadership slobodan milosevic the others but eventually incites. force of the chance there have also been parts related to the civil war elements and it's very difficult to face the complexity of events so is that instead of saying that for example concerning korea was now canceled the now there are the first aggressive involvement also came from serbia but then after the meetings between then president was when and then president milosevic encourage orders of war and meetings between. their leader or scared to boston a month or bobbin and recently sentenced courage each eventually

depart which they have taken to have been not in direction of. against war but eventually splitting boston and it's that divines who had been sentenced the day for which and others are. held responsible for. it all just crimes of torture appealing inhumane treatment crimes against women indeed i want to you could have a brief for then on the of the work of the tribunals itself that today was that its last set of verdicts it's been in operation for twenty five years i want to briefly if you would tell us if it be suspended exercise it's been worth it. it was very important. surest i'll talk to you banal established afternoon and can talk your thoughts if you're indicted all together of one hundred sixty one

persons and all have been actually drop us a little car or at least look at that and they have been processed but all the verdicts all the councils have not managed to. stick to the highest on the rise but you know past perfect humans are it's our product so it's not always perfect better term so much helpful. we must leave it no more smash thank you so much for joining us we're just director of documenter. several leading british politicians are demanding the government revoke an invitation to u.s. president donald trump after he retreated a series of inflammatory anti muslim videos the videos which have not been verified purport to show violence being committed by muslims and they were originally posted by the leader of an extreme far right group with a previous conviction for

a hate crime civil rights groups have condemned the tweet saying the president was again fanning anti muslim sentiment as a presidential candidate and mr trump called for a ban on all muslims entering the united states and said he considers closing some mosques in the country. as a trump has also said the united states will handle the latest a ballistic missile test by north korea china has voiced grave concern and course the talks to resolve the issue jani and claims its latest test launches a new type of missile some experts believe it's capable of crossing the u.s. mainland and reaching the east coast. north korea triumphantly claims it has become a global nuclear power after a lull of over two months it has fired another intercontinental ballistic missile this one flew much higher than previous ones before landing in the sea of japan.

state media announced the news in a special broadcast it said the launch was a complete success and that the new missile represented a giant leap forward. and well pyongyang claims this brings the whole u.s. mainland within its reach a direct challenge to president donald trump but this time his reaction was more muted than before after meeting with his secretary of defense trump refrained this time from issuing threats but i won't tell you that will take care of it when you have general most of them with us and a lot of discussion rather. it is a situation that we will handle. north korea's immediate neighbor was less restrained within minutes south korea responded by firing missiles into the sea to demonstrate its ability to strike pyongyang's launch sites the south korean

president said the international community had no choice but to continue applying pressure and sanctions against the north. you know. this action does not only increase tension on the korean peninsula but gravely interchanges international peace and security we strongly condemn north korea's reckless behavior. seoul has warned the situation could spiral out of control the united nations security council will hold an emergency meeting to discuss the situation. more on this from maine foster carter he's an honorary senior research fellow in sociology a modern korea leeds university in the united kingdom welcome to day w a president trump said on twitter that additional major sanctions will be imposed on north korea is that what we need now. no not really in my view i mean no doubt they are merited north korea has been breaking international law with its

missile and nuclear tests for a decade now now but we're piling on the sanctions the sticks are in place what we don't have is the carrots or any kind of a diplomatic process i do think that it will need to come to talks and china for sure is of that opinion so sanctions alone no not enough so there is a meeting of an emergency meeting of the u.n. what options do they have. very little i mean this is really hold groundhog day aspect to this is that we seem to go through the same size motions over and over again and there is a certain impotence i mean the there will doubtless be a condom nature or a resolution the sanctions that president trump professed to presumably you know after all american ones i will have to see what comes up that but there is there is a sense of great. but also of impotence that we know so far absent

a diplomatic track no one has found a way to stop north korea particularly under its latest lead to kim jong un from forging ahead with this very dangerous weapons so a given that given that we go through this cycle time and time again missile recrimination then the next my style should we not just now say north korea is a nuclear weapon state and take it from there. in my view that is the reality. i think the facts are facts it doesn't help to them i have them on the other hand i understand the reasons why many people will state that just don't want to there is supposed to be an on perforation treaty north korea did sign it of course there are other nuclear sort of known recognized states in the world like israel india pakistan all with much more powerful new girl shows but they never pretended so to speak and never joined the n.p.t. in the first place well scripted and left so it is seen from a sort of you know county and universalistic going to be seen as

a very grave blow to the global anti-nuke the effort to recognize this but facts are facts and i don't think there's any going back so somehow this conundrum will have to be faced hayden foster carter thank you so much. this is day dubliners live from berlin still to come pope francis calls for religious and ethnic tolerance not a mass in million dollars but will his words have any influence on the country's treatment of its range of population. now european union negotiators say britain is on the verge of agreeing abraxane vellum that is very brechtian bell and it's very close to the use terms exactly exciting stuff a breakthrough could be look at you joe wilson is that thank you i do my best
