much brighter than. the sun from us to. come.

bringing you the latest in science. we.

have heard. whether to live in moscow now the top story is the u.s. force billions of dollars into afghanistan but aspart say there's no way to tell what the massive war bill is paying for and widespread corruption lack of transparency some claim huge sums are smuggled out of kabul as soon as they arrive . top secrets in line israel's military fights to keep its own soldiers from the facebook generation leaving sensitive information on the web officials say armed

forces should leave and be posting pictures of themselves uniform. and a russian man of the forest has his isolation rudely interrupted after becoming an internet sensation gave our team a warm welcome at its handmade home awards outside moscow but hadn't seen too many welcome visitors. at official candidacy for membership european union beginning talks with cause of all our service tall goals for two thousand and eleven so r.t. said down was the country's president boris tadic to hear more about belgrade's road towards the e.u. and the challenges the nation faces. but is that the church serbian president thank you very much for being with us

today thanks a lot mr president it's been two years since kosovo's independence was recognized and back then there was a lot of talk about the don't know a fact about the threat of destabilisation in the region and that none of that happened why do you think was it right to make such a fuss in the first place in the beginning of the domino effect is still existing as a threat for everybody not only in the region of southeast europe but also everywhere and from the whole real concerns both to take into consideration of how we react to the army unit out of the original independence thing that we are trying to prevent problems. i mean should be a consistent policy that means we are totally against partition of all countries of the member states of united nations. means against partition of the countries that the existing in the region in that respect your fully supporting for example integrity integrity of other countries. and in the three spades we are contributing

to disability even though we are very much affected because if you look through the caribbean a friend of penn just recently as prime minister suggested starting relations from scratch ways spark rate is that possible i mean what would it take for serbia to actually i think i think the dialogue is a very important that look can bring some solution i mean we have a confrontation between sure obscenity brainiest not between should be and because we don't score so in the us we have a confrontation between serbs and albanians for almost. fifty years and then the end. we have to solve that kind of conflict. blocking not only serbs sort of single being is but also whole region in terms of progress and development only trade dialogue we can achieve some sort of a shame that can be acceptable for a great sort of the prettiest foreign minister with a mistake set that serbia is actually putting in chances of joining the e.u.

under threat by refusing to cooperate with kosovo and you are facing a really tough choice what's your priority kosovo are the membership i'm not making that kind of differences between. participating on election and so last time in the first one i was elected for president of serbia having in the mind to mean so digital goal is to become a member state the future to be found to be totally into consideration to my country i'm going to continue my efforts in that direction while in two thousand and eight in every single one of your interviews you said that seven of prince percent of your people serbs thought that kosovo was the main problem the major problem in the country and like your later this number dropped to six percent why is that i mean if you are talking about people the. mentioning of course what is a main problem of the contrary the different opinion polls imposture yours you have

to know that serbia is a very much affected because if economical crisis and in that respect the old serbian people and the citizens of thinking that economic crises. unemployment and the kind of problems the talk before are joined and this is a totally. strong economy and the real development you cannot defend your state and the national interests and that is why we are trying to solve the problems like all other countries all around the world but people are not thinking of course always are not the problem any more course always existing on the problem not only between sort of single. binion's but also in the original policy globally thinking because of caving in the mind the real possible press of the can create many many turmoil sold around the world but you're absolutely right the international court of justice in the hague recognized the legitimacy of course of this independence and this is the first president now that what do you think are the consequences for

some other european countries decision of the international court of justice has been legitimizing you know that through a declaration of independence not independence of course. being in the mind the group of the people the unilaterally independence didn't have a right to do that they came to the consideration all the legal framework which was adopted on course so before. there is very controversial decision but we are not going to fear and decision so for the international court of justice we accept that and we are going to continue all. direction to defend territorial integrity and sovereignty or serbia but it cannot be really. the. without dialogue between serbs and albanians between both great and we have to have some kind of compromise on the end of the day solution is not one sided to me is

course well being is getting everything and the other serbian sort of serbian people are losing everything i'm totally sure that we have to have a some compromise despite their urging of the european parliament to recognize this independence or spain or greece there is for mania they refused to do so do you think it's more because they're apprehensions about their own intentions or it's just solidarity no no no no they're there are all governments all around the world are they finding their own interests not only those three countries but also cyprus and greece and i appreciate very much that kind of approach because that was very helpful regarding serbian position but those go. most of the funding interest so they citizens and the national interest and we understand that very well be on the side that perfectly well you have always stronger promoted the pro-american mention of your government and then when the cost of the issue marriage when it came down to it turned out that russia was your only ally to ally how did that happen and i'm pro serbian. president the government is going to be ollie's if i'm going to be

leader of the country i'm sure that i'm going to continue my work serbian government we want to have the best possible relations we deny the states even though we are facing with a real challenges for especially because of course that is a crucially important achievement in my talks with the vice president biden and clinton and she came to belgrade and we agreed that we disagree on course so we should and this is not to every easy to achieve that kind of. relations in the very difficult circumstances in which we are living. we do not want to become member states off united states we want to become a member state of european union we are leaving the europe and we are going to continue our efforts in that they are action but no one can make very strange or not official condition symptom so frequent as in kosovo. because of the intention to become member states of europe you know appreciate that that the approach of

european union countries very much take into consideration relations with russia historical relations very close relations cultural relations no one can make any problem seeing death respect this is not changeable policy and be sure that serbia is going to be very very close partner of russia true future and future history and we should have and continue to have special little course i have extremely close relations with your present to your prime minister we have a very very good conversation and we agreed on many many issues that we are going to continue our force in that direction so this is a quote from here and. that balkan integration into the day all the way to settle the disputes and we should all be integrated into europe and look for pragmatic ways out civil attorneys the now why do you think it's possible to settle the issue that one country couldn't solve on its own within the e.u. boundaries only tour we can solve the problem is that it's not the first think only serbs and albanians only serbia but those

a whole region and i think that is becoming globally extremely important issue and that is the reason the. only sixty countries recognize corso independence until today we have more than one hundred ninety countries so that the member states of the united nations and it is this is also fate that we have to take into consideration so that ultra right moments are gathering pace and here and now under this conditions how do you see settling the problem of living side by side with my stance in your country i mean religious issues are very very important to. them so bush and bush have people that have a muslim religion are living in serbia for centuries and i appreciate very much the arch event of my system and bush culture in my country and in the original policy in that respect fully respecting all rights for all religious communities

old national minorities and we are going to continue that kind of policy europe is a facing with a problem with the challenge charlie to define themselves in terms of the influence of the muslim culture on european conflict. between turkey and europe we are not very strong country and we cannot to decide what has to be european policy and that they were actually have to decide where are the board to surf european union how to . handle many different things that exist in between christians and muslims but. if you want my. opinion i see. extreme religious groups that. have been all really jews right now not only among the muslims but those some of the christian science facing the serbian president with the. very very often insisting on christian identity but very strong and very extreme

religious organizations becoming problems every we're on the globe sir sir big government at its utmost to hand it out it's to the hague what's your assessment of this process we have to continue that process first of all this is all oh this is in accordance with ologists lieschen we are respecting our own nose otherwise we will be in a very difficult situation and second in terms of frequency area one who is accused has to be and he should be i'm not. talking about serbs croats abortion exelby any others but because of war and terrible consequences we are facing who are the only ways in terms of frequency lieschen the people that really accuse because of participation in the war crimes during the night this has to be faced with a justice in the hague tribunal but then two years ago when that i was doing it was

acquitted of all charges he sat there tribunals decision was a major blow to the whole international justice system and also to the hopes for reconciliation saying that you considered a biased and incompetent that was really very tough momentum for serbs and serbia for me as a serbian president. fortunately that is a continuing process against the mr hardee right now and there right now he's the new to the hague tribunal once again and the human rights watch says it's a human rights organization demanded that you put pressure on serbia to actually make this a. more effective what do you say to that but i am not changing my my and my approach on everyone who is the being they teach us to be in the hague tribunal that is a very strict and not changeable bods mr president thank you retching you very much thanks a lot. wealthy
