10:02 am
victims relatives have traveled to the hague to hear the burden. a few kilometers north of chevron. it's the genocide, memorial and cemetery on are the victims of the $995.00 massacre. sure. so none of its lost 23 members of her family, including her husband, his last words to her take care of our children. when you get lobby broke up in the early 909 keys ethnic tel existence rapidly dissolved into ethnic conflict. for the governor became one of the most physically contested territory. a serbs crow at some bog. next vide for control. in july, 995, bosnian serb general radco melodic enter. trevor and it's in the following days, at least 8000 pas nack muslims were slaughtered. mostly men and boys.
10:03 am
the remains are still being identified by forensic scientists today using d n. a analysis. melodic went on trial at the u. n. tribunal for the former yugoslavia. and in 2017 he was found guilty of war crimes and genocide for having committed these crimes the chambers, censuses, mister, outcome, luggage to life imprisonment from aladdin, challenged his genocide conviction. and the appeal verdict will be the last in the case against him. 60 kilometers from sarajevo in his home town of colleen, a vic melodic still revered. as a hero of you, held by many bosnian serbs, he's an honest man and honest commander who only defended his people. nothing else . i think he deserves to be released because he's not guilty of anything yet to
10:04 am
those who lost loved ones in the genocide hope the final ruling will confirm a lot of guilt for them. it's a question of justice, not just for their families, but for all human kind of spring in catalina listed here. she's a researcher with the global and european studies institute lights a university. thanks for being with us this morning. dr. research. what are you expecting from the court today? if you think mr. melodic has a chance of winning his appeal? and thank you. one cannot really predict the legal verdict, but i do not expect that. you know, the significantly alter the child chamber decision from 2017. as a matter of fact, it is widely expected that the appeal chamber will confirm the law that she was guilty on the charges of genocide and plenty. so terrorizing civilians in,
10:05 am
sorry abel, during the 3 years long seas and uphold the lifetime as we saw in our report, the mulatto is revered by some of his compatriots. they see him as a hero. what do you make of that? oh well, it is true that suburban, its largest roll instrument, its has remained contested memory and serbia and in the region despite all the number of verdicts detailing the atrocity and the responsibility of luggage and candidates for, for that matter. but the public in serbia has never given the fair presentation of what was happening there. and in july 1995, i lived in belgrade and then public was occupied, celebrating the 1st major sports story. it was
10:06 am
a peon basketball championship. and then you love the one in greece and media report the not the details on both the own war on atrocities. instead, it was just another big story and think the war. and that is how it remains. still . as you say, you've lived in serbia when luggage committed the atrocities there in scrubber needs. in an earlier interview you told us that most people are including yourself didn't, didn't realize what was happening. you just explained what was on television or people there today aware of what happened. do they recognize this rubber needs to mask her as a war crime? generally i think there is awareness that trusty was committed by the genocide charge is highly contested as a political charge and mainly population would say that it doesn't amount genocide . instead, when talking about genocide a 3rd, yes, you would probably hear about, you know, what's in the 2nd world war atrocities. again,
10:07 am
so rather than flying genocide, slow traffic to the war in ninety's. and just finally, the conflicts surrounding the breakup of the former yugoslavia they involved ethno nationalists movements that linger on in the balkans today. how dangerous would you say those movements are nationalism and these movements have been dangerous and they flourish during the war, and they've been static part of regional politics the last 3, the decades. nevertheless, there is a disturbing trend of the rise of radical right mainly connecting through social media where anonymous users are celebrating genocide in bosnia and certainly in law . did she cut it into heroes inviting for acceleration of violence. terrorist under brave it in norway and branch on current in new zealand were inspired by a radical rights and the one side of the law. and this rise,
10:08 am
the practical rights is by no means some damage to welcome it is really connecting islam of public extreme is beyond europe. dr. rich rich, thank you very much for talking with us. that was dr. cover in a research of lights. the university come on, harris is on her 1st foreign trip as us vice president. her mission is to address undocumented migration to the us by tackling root causes, including poverty and political oppression. harris is now arrived in mexico city for talks with president andrea manuel lopez open the door. she travelled from guatemala, where she offered a message of hope to the people of the country, but discouraged them from trying to travel to the u. s. at the same time, i want to be clear to folks in this region who are thinking about making that dangerous track to the united states. mexico board or do not come
10:09 am
me do not come. what is the disagreements that present lopez over a door and us, the vice president, come on, the harris will discuss on tuesday is how to was the old the migration crisis. mexico has been pressuring washington to increase investment in central america to curb the tide of migration from their d. w. a reporter, utah site is traveled to the city of tupper trula in southern mexico, near the border to guatemala. it's one of the key arrival points for undocumented migrants from central america traveling north in the hope of reaching the us. danny rios travelled from honduras to mexico with her 2 daughters and 2 nephews. they've just been detained at a checkpoint in tampa, tula, and don't know where they will be taken. illuminate. they arrived last monday. we've been hungry and slept in the park because we had nowhere to sleep. just
10:10 am
trying to hold on. none. august sanchez has been running a shelter for migraines and half of july for 3 decades. she's noticed that since you as president joe biden to power more and more women are arriving alone with their children. you know, sometimes there's a bottleneck in the north and a bottleneck here. we don't know what to do, but people are still coming in. a bite. migrants are forced to seek asylum 1st and mexico before they can continue their journey towards the us. the authorities estimate will receive about $100000.00 silent applications this year. that's more than double the number of last year. the paperwork used to take about 20 days to process. now, it takes months. left thousands of migraines from haiti and central america stranded in top of chula struggling to survive several and g. o say it's part of
10:11 am
a deliberate political strategy to dissuade the migrants from leaving their countries. the refuge agency says governments need to do more as a one my, your we are calling for a greater effort from all countries. if worse, there's not just one country that has to deal with this situation by you get to pick up. we're seeing it across the region and all the leaders have to be involved in custody. danny and her family spent all their savings to flee the violence in their neighborhood. and his father was recently killed by gang members. so new people who killed the boy's father are threatening us to we don't want to go back to 100 know locked in this then and worried about deportation. they feared they've invested everything just to end up back where they started. or more of the speak to liz shook her. she's the u. s. policy analyst at the homeless
10:12 am
foundation here in berlin. so liz, this is harris's 1st foreign trip, as vice president. what do you make of it so far? well, this is a huge moment for her. she is a coming from the congress to set it background and didn't get a patch or foreign policy chop, and she needs to do it very wisely. so kind of what i'm hearing coming from you ministration. modest expectation, but a strong foundation. so they're not looking for her being the migrant policy or our relationship with immigration. but that thing in place that moving forward will be by new ministration and taking this very seriously. and by president harrison, the right person to leave that now come on, harris is telling would be migrant rather bluntly do not. com. that's quite a turnaround from the welcoming tone we heard from the bio ministration initially. isn't it?
10:13 am
i'm not sure i would phrase it like that. you can both be more welcoming than the previous administration. also more focused on human rights when they do arrive in the country. but as the last segment showed that uptake in migration and not only is that for 90 days, but this is incredibly dangerous. the loss of life and the danger that they're putting women and children and it's kind of uncomfort, we don't really even know the scope of it. i think it's prudence to kind of go to the source and say, this is both not an easy track and will not be an easy arrival. so don't just assume because it's the by new ministration, that much is going to be different than, than the past decade. but that change and administration indeed served as a, as a pull had a pulling effect on migration if we could say that. but aside from telling would be migrant, you're not wanted in the us on this trip. what incentives is the vice president
10:14 am
offering for them? stay at home. i think that was the rest of the, at the actual rest of the trip into lay those foundations. not only met with government officials, she met with local and g o. she held the people on when it's empowerment. talked about 500000 vaccines, delivered to guatemala, from the u. s. so she's talking about these long lasting foundation she want. she mentioned several times offering hope. so how can we go to the root cause and help with economic stability, reducing violence and helping folks not even have to take the journey in the 1st place. we talk about those factors driving latin american migration to the u. s. poverty, gang violence by governance. these are huge problems in central america. what's the by the ministrations policy approach lives to those issues? is there a robust policy in place?
10:15 am
i think that's what's being rolled out and i think they're taking it very seriously . and the chairman of the hispanic caucus in congress representative group has talked about, he's really pushing the administration to go to the root cause. and i think that's really not the very they're going to be for from the internet that are very unhappy with what she said. and i think they know that they knew this was a risky thing to say. but they believed that a whole mystic approach that targeting there has been stability, economic, political, and violent in the, in central america for decades now. so it's going to be a massive overhaul. so this is not a one trip lamps that will fix anything. but how do we build a sustainable future because they are neighbors? and so i think you're going to see a really strong lasting foundation of policies being rolled out. but it's thank you so much. that was live, show us policy analysts with the homeless foundation. thank you,
