is not subject at all, and there was already an expert commission that recognized this house as unusable , valery's house is located opposite the already known the makarov bread factory, which russia bombed completely by air on march 7, for incomprehensible reasons, then 13 people died, and a hut in the neighborhood simply disappeared at 35 o'clock in the morning, one bomb was dropped there twice, uh, that's because the blast wave destroyed the fence here and all that, but uh, after that were there again and the grads flew in, the buildings themselves were all destroyed there, there, there, all of them left in a row, the family of the nation was under fire, but as soon as the enemy troops left the kyiv region, they decided to return, the housing issue was helped to be solved by von serhiy's volunteers shelters launched an initiative to create

some creatures wonder about the toilet in the house and we from ukraine can insure cars even if you are in the toilet hotline finance insurance of course online we continue our broadcast on the espresso channel anna valevska now we have a very difficult and difficult topic the topic of kosovo and the unexpected conflict between serbia and this formation on the territory of the former slavia was not recognized by a country that was not recognized by ukraine, but recognized by most of the countries of the european union, as well

as the united states. yes, you are already visiting. we welcome you iver levchenko , military-political spectator, expert-internationalist, and mariya glytti, balcony expert, candidate of political sciences. we will talk in more detail, mrs. maria, for you, this is what the tension that arose literally the other day on the border of kosovo and serbia became a surprise if it concerns any restrictions on the rights of kosovo serbs , e.e., in kosovo, who live, so for me it is such an ordinary protest of the kosovo serbs on the territory of kosovo, but this is a very dangerous situation from the point of view that the balkans themselves are very

hot and a potential source of conflict in the future. that is why this is a threatening situation, and that is why the situation is now resolved by postponing this demand. according to the documents and driver's license plates, it is positive because it postpones this conflict and may contribute to the resolution of this conflict. well, i will remind you of the postponement regarding the recognition of license plates on kosovo cars demands that the serbs receive exactly the kosovo numbers and not some proxy numbers there, as well as, what else are there id cards? well, i mean passports, but the postponement took place only for one month , that is, until september 1, and then everything will be repeated, mr. igor, please your comment what is unexpected for you? well, it was postponed in order to find some kind of solution. what must be said is that this conflict is again easy to read and i have been talking about it in recent months and many experts have said that most likely

the end of the previous previous agreement , which was concluded a year ago, and on august 1, the term of this agreement coincided, most likely it will lead to a certain tension, the situation will repeat itself in practice, the same as it was last year, and it was practically the same with -e with the deployment of e-e serbian troops on the border with the arrival of e-e high-ranking officials at the border and so on again with barricades shooting in the air and the only thing that was active last time in serbia was the ambassador of the russian federation in serbia running and urged his serbian friends, so to speak , to come to the attack, not uh, just today in the background, if the way of a large-scale war of russia against

ukraine, all this is perceived a little more uh, wary and with greater danger, let's look at the plot after the plot, let's discuss this situation in more detail, because the recognized state of kosovo is slightly smaller than transcarpathia in area, it is located in the center of the balkans, where ethnic, religious and linguistic disputes have been raging for several centuries, the vast majority of the country's almost two million population are albanian-speaking muslims tensions in relations with the orthodox serbian minority existed for a long time, but sharply increased in the 90s of the last century in response to the attempt of the yugoslav leadership to establish direct control over the region, and in the bank created their own armed formations, the serbian security forces responded by marching through the villages on armored vehicles, expelling local albanians with burning of their homes, violence increased, refugees became more and more, the west put pressure on the yugoslav dictator slobod on milosevic with the demand to withdraw

the troops from the border on march 24, 1999, nato planes began bombing military facilities in yugoslavia , according to estimates, more than a thousand serbian soldiers and more than 500 civilians were killed in the alliance believes that airstrikes for several days will force the peacemaker to sit down at the negotiating table, but the population outraged by the bombings supported their president, at the same time ethnic cleansing intensified in kosovo only after for two and a half months , milosov agreed to withdraw troops from kosovo, and in 2008 the region declared independence from serbia, which was recognized by about 100 un member states, in particular the united states, great britain and france, about 80 other countries refused to do so, in particular russia and china. ukraine also does not recognize the independence of kosovo and has not had diplomatic relations with this region since 2014. moscow is trying to use the kosovo precedent as a justification for the annexation of crimea, despite the non-recognition

of independence. ukraine agreed to participate in international sports competitions with the participation of the national teams of kosovo, in particular, in the selection for the 2018 fifa world cup in russia, the ukrainians beat the national team twice, although the ukrainians played their conditional home match in poland, looked at the information about the historical background of what is happening in kosovo and we have our guests on the phone who will comment ihor levchenko maria hality i congratulate you once again, here i am reading viktor boborenko political the analyst writes that regarding serbia, this is just a great case for students of political science or journalists, how to divert attention now from the topic of ukraine, he is referring to the topic of serbia, igor, do you follow e-editions about that what is being written about how much this topic has now reached the top and

how much it distracts attention from ukraine. well, if we are talking about the balkans, then yes, these news are quite actively discussed. not so much, if the history of relations is positive, especially in the 90s, everything is fine, in addition to true serbia, there is also a regional one in herzegovina, where they make up one of the elements of this state. montenegro is also where the serbian question is. it affects the internal political the situation the arrangement of political forces, of course, if it had no

effect on the information component. well, accordingly, the neighbors of this region, which also well remember the wars of the 90s, for example, the same austrians, when they actually ended up in the well, on the border , that is, their neighboring country, hostilities were going on with them there, and they accepted a very large number of refugees, and so on. well, that is, in general, for this central european, southern european europe, the balkans and instability there have always been there since the 90s took a rather serious position mrs. maria well, if you take the former republic of yugoslavia, then in the balkans it was like a small soviet union there, you can even find prototypes there, parallels, yes, serbia was like russia, croatia was like ukraine, slovenia was like the baltics, bosnia was like central asia, kosovo was like the caucasus

, macedonia was there who is like moldova, montenegro , belarus, and so on this background. why do you, why do we have such a position in ukraine regarding the non-recognition of kosovo, although the majority of the population is for independence, and i was in kosovo in 1999. year i remember this army of the liberation of kosovo and i remember how the local population was disposed. well, they will definitely not live together with the serbs now in the same state after what happened in 98-99, as was the case in our story after the genocide what did some bad representatives of the neighboring country do? why is ukraine now delaying for a long time? i have been dealing with the balkans for many years and researched these conflicts. i will understand the reason why ukraine does not recognize and understand why the balkans will not

live together and serbia does not want to let you go they said everything correctly that, er, yugoslavia, the former yugoslavia was somewhat similar to the soviet union , but it played such a role, you know, it was between the east and the west, it had good relations with the west, the west provided it with financial support, as we remember, er yugoslavs could travel to european countries, unlike citizens of the soviet union, and why ukraine does not recognize that, in general , how the secession of kosovo took place is a precedent in international relations. and we know very well that there are always precedents in international relations are used by other countries and that is why now russia is using this moment and it. i remember a meeting between scholz and putin almost almost before the invasion of russia into ukraine, and putin made the argument that this is a similar situation to what happened in kosovo, although we understand that the recognition of the

independence of kosovo and the secession of kosovo, although it was contrary to international standards, but it happened because of the fact that after such brutal violence that occurred in relation to the albanians in kosovo, the country actually could not to exist together with the aggressor country, that is why this case cannot be compared, because, for example, when serbia introduced troops and began ethnic cleansing in relation to the kosovo albanians , in fact, then it was decided that it was necessary to stop this conflict and somehow demarcate these two countries. i would rather say these two territories, and there is also a serious question, there is always the serbs, who are now about 2%, or 1% and a little more than 1%, who live mainly in northern kosovo

but there are also enclaves in kosovo in the middle of kosovo and really they live er not very well i would say the characteristics of the enclaves they don't really live a free life they are scared they are afraid that the albanians will also shoot them down in response to in response to er these crimes that the serbs did in relation to the albanians, but let's say the situation is such that, in principle, the country will exist separately , it has no chance of any unification with serbia, serbia will do everything, everything will be done in order to interfere in the environment and increase the danger in the region friends well, we have compressed a lot of things, so the perspective is still clear whether this conflict will become due to
