9:03 pm
this one special police to leads the area. the special police currently deployed inside and outside the municipal building should withdraw with their armored vehicles. this is a city municipality, not a police station, not lots of option that has a lot of fun. in the posts of its peace keeping troops placed barbed wire around the town hall to protect it from hundreds of angry privacy. clashes of the latest and a string of incidents which added to growing regional attentions brushes, foreign minister sick. i love ralph wound up interruption in the balkans. it is, it is too much. so it was a big explosions as brewing in the center of europe, in the very place where in 1999, nato carried out aggression against logan flavio 2 floats. your best loaded stuff to the situation is alarming. but the west has set
9:04 pm
a course for the total subjugation of every one who expresses their own opinions. it goes with soaps, name, neighboring sylvia has now put its military on high alert. costs a vote declared independence from downgrade in 2008, but downgrade refuses to recognize the cost of, of suffering. take the us and a, you know, stooping up, if it's to resolve the dispute, fearing through the instability as rushes for rages in ukraine. and i'm drawing now by 4 in beaver. he is a professor of se european history and politics at the university of glass. welcome to the w. now the conflict between ethnic serbs and kosovo. albanians is deeply rooted in the past. why do tensions persist to this day? and what exactly triggered this new violence what i mean, the co, uh, reason overall is of course that serbia still does not recognize costa was independence and has a strong control over the serve community in the north of comfortable through its
9:05 pm
political party and power structures. now the particular trigger now is that the serbs walked out of comfortable institutions at the end of last year over a name plate disputes and they haven't returned no and response cost of organized elections, but they were boycotted by moses serves. so the mayor is elected in the northern municipalities, are albanians, and don't represent the local community. so many serves are understandably kind of alienated by those mayors. but of course, the other side, it's been from belgrade side that this boy called has been instigated against in these elections. and so there's really no credible authority in those municipalities at the moment. and when christie know, when the best way they will forward to them because of what tried to install those mayors received his violence, which to some degree seems to be locally grown and to some degree seems to be also provoked and encouraged by bell. great. mm hm. let's look at the role that the serbian president learning center, which is a play here because he is performing
9:06 pm
a delicate balancing act between appeasing hardline nationalist supporters at home and courting the interview. he has now warrant that is military won't stand by and those are his words if the serbs are attacked in kosovo. what role does the serve, minority in kosovo play in serbian domestic politics? well, it doesn't play any role uh itself, it's too small. um, but the issue is that voltage is using them basically as a leverage and comfortable abusing them, but also keeping the cost of issue open raising tensions. they are very often for his own domestic politics. so it's not that he is, you know, the balancing act as part of his performance as part of his so he's neither committed to join the european union. norris, he pursuing any other policy besides keeping himself in power at his face, some of the most serious protests since his term and office in recent days. so the
9:07 pm
incident, some comfortable, are indeed quite useful for him because he could distract from domestic criticism by pointing towards the cost of all. how likely do you think it is that this violence will spiral out of control? well, let's keep in mind cost of what has a nature, legs, a peacekeeping operation of whom many were injured today, tragically, which is one of the serious most serious incidents we've seen in many years. but that's very clear that disturbing with to cross the border into comfortable those troops would be there. and that would be basically a conflict between serbia, nato. and i think nobody is imagining this at the moment. so what he says, he's not going to stand by this is most be idle talk, which he likes to do. um, but you know, he really can't afford open confrontation with nato at this particular juncture. story on paper in god's thank you so much for your analysis. thank you. to russia aside, a bar as of missiles and keys earlier on monday and an unusual daytime or an air raid on the ukrainian capital air strikes of happened mostly nights or in the early

9:22 pm
breathing a sigh of relief. throughout the campaign, kenneth startled about to deport them from the country present, or the one said he also wanted refugees to go. but voluntarily. as the turkish republic enters its 2nd century, it faces a lot of open questions. for now, they will be answered by the man who is ruled at longest. and we can now speak to clifton blanco. he's the middle east analyst and former head of the hamish boast, if don't it is stumble, which is affiliated with a german cream party. welcome to the w, mr. black of president. ergo, on one. the election by a fairly slim margin in turkey is, as it seems very polarized, we just heard a couple of voices there. what will it take for turks to come together in what erewhon calls the unity and solidarity? and i think there is no way that that's the judge populace would come together
9:23 pm
under this president. the president has made his trip to the full for the last, at least 10 years through by division to fight rooting. but pull, pull the rising, the society picking one side against the other. it's very, very unlikely that this will be overcome in, in the next years. um, it could be overcome potentially, but they have very deep breaths. rifts that go back dictates, and this could only be overcome by a different dealership. and this, as we've seen, it's not on the rise. how does he profit from a polarized public? if this is what he's been working towards? i mean, this is very much like the populace playbook one a one as we've seen it in the us, as we seen it in, in poland, hungary it's by timing. he spoke to us that the, the of the candidate is under no circumstances a possibility to,
9:24 pm
to vote. because this candidate would not only like, maybe talk to different quotes when it comes to economic policies, foreign policy or whatever. but the, he would basically close the space to any of the people will have different ideas when it comes to about to religion when it comes to identity, basically their right to exist in this country and by feel mongering like that. people saying yes, okay. then i really have to vote for that one. yeah. he's been doubling down on the populace in stirring anti algebra 2 q sentiment. we heard it in the report as well as overseas. also a dramatic backsliding in women's rights. how concerned are you about the further erosion of human rights and turkey? i'm not sure if you would see like the food rose in the in like that it would be a completely like new aspect of, of the. ready thing, but i think the, the slide in tools that are terry and this is that we've witnessed over the last at least 10 to 13 years is something that's going to continue. um m s
9:25 pm
b, i rides and women's rights. so all the issues of particular concern as they were not as big on the rate of ad on um, in, in, in the years. let's say before the kronos and demick. um and so i think we will see photos, erosion when it comes to the flow. when it comes to human rights, but i would expect in general, more of the same of what about the opposition? because taking into account that the playing field here was very much skewed. he controls the airline controls, 90 percent of the media. for example. we will be opposition, be able to build on that momentum because they did fairly well to me or they did well on on the one hand um, when it comes to to the presidential elections. then again, if you look to the parliamentary elections, which took place like 2 weeks ago,
9:26 pm
we see that the main opposition party of the csp has not managed to launch a load to vote a capacity. so there are still a lot of question marks, but it comes on like taking on to, to, to, to this like defeat slash success. and, and the biggest of all of them is what would happen to the possibly the ship to, to keep my can start on know a many, many i'm saying why is he not resigning? he lost this vote. this should be new, wind in the party, but nobody knows how this new wind, how this new person could look like. we only have a couple of seconds, but maybe you can give me a one sentence answer. what will these 5 more years under add on? mean for turkey, m basically it would mean like more of the same uh, more of the same when it comes to foreign policy, most the same when it comes to one man rule and,
9:27 pm
and maybe even the entrenched autherette, terry, and isn't as very clear my life analysts, coach and bako. thank you so much. i and a quick reminder of our top story here on the the news. dozens of people have been injured in northern kosovo and been cautious between ethnic cir protesters and nato peacekeeping forces. around 25 peacekeepers haven't heard. according to nato, it's condemned would have caused unprovoked attack, saying they are totally unacceptable. the 3rd time, the at the top of the next hour by the
