join me every thursday on the alex simon show and i'll be speaking to guest in the world of politics sports business i'm showbusiness i'll see you there. then we're back with service for a minister in for a minister you keep bringing out the fact that some countries have recognized costs

of all others haven't i mean lately said yes casa was independent then. has revoked i mean do these things really matter i mean we're looking at it from the outside we can't figure out does this really change anything in the cost of a serbian issue countries recognizing revoking. there is a huge difference between explanations given by the countries that recognize costs of all and those that are actually revoking their recognition some say that they have general legal principles but essentially it's not correct from the point of view of the international law it's absolutely unacceptable and the albanians in kosovo are not a nation they are. minority because the albanian people have their own state that's albania is there any other nation that has two states and they say that they need one president. how do you feel about that when you're someone just speaking their

mind they're saying what they're also thinking for them the purpose is greater all the media regardless of who will suffer the consequences and regardless of who is to be blamed but that is their goal unification of all of the unions. against it. so. they can create albania if they want so on the territory of other states surely not on our territory we want dialogue who want dialogue to be successful we want to reach a solution that is in the interest of. imposing a solution that we have to recognize kosovo giving ultimatums that is something that does not work with the serbian people somebody in the international community may be interpreting our wish to have a dialogue as a weakness maybe i should also say. should also have one president with serbia maybe there would have respected us more if we said that but we were

suppressing the wish of the republika srpska to unify with syria because we respect the provisions of the dayton agreement nevertheless were often criticized by the west subconscious rama and other obey me and politicians are viewed as a good guy but there is one problem because i showed them up all the terrorists coming from both and herzegovina i showed to rex tillerson all the terrorists who fought in kosovo and in bosnia as islamist fundamentalist muslims so they're not going to go after us now instead they're going to turn their guns and killed them now and if the west doesn't understand that maybe too late. so foreign minister from this talk i understand that either serbian government nor serbian people are willing to recognize this independence compromise something very vague because as

you say aren't listening. but that is the main stumbling point of the euro session to the european union and i know that the german foreign minister has said that serbia will have to recognize cost of what twenty. how do you go from here serbia and yugoslavia in the past welcomed the reunification of germany and it is not appropriate for foreign minister gaboriau to make a statement like that well he also said that he didn't really say that and if you didn't then i apologize to him you does not have a common position of course they criticize us for not accepting the common european foreign policy on russia so why don't we figure out a common foreign policy regarding kosovo these are positions stated by those who recognize. it is my opinion the fair is no price for serbian recognition of course . if anyone thinks that for the sake of joining the european union serbia would recognize costs of all under the conditions that they impose right now and not on

the basis of dialogue or compromise very wrong who wants a compromise because the solution proposed by cost of all of amiens is not a real solution. but. i understand their arguments and their very logical matter of the fact. that maybe not. the german foreign minister himself but the e.u. in general that's one of the demands that you have to recognize the independence what's more important for serbia this session to the e.u. by twenty twenty five or recognizing. let me repeat once again no one has officially said this to us the european union cannot really stand by a position like that when it has five members that do not even recognize course we cannot expect spain to be more serbian oriented than the serbs themselves but no one can demand those things of serbia is humiliating obscurity s.o.b.'s good

relations want to join c. european union but what they're telling us they should be telling pristina as well they should tell them that there is no european perspective no path to europe unless you reach an agreement with the great they tell us that there is no such perspective tell this to the other side as well say that there will be no european path for them unless they reach a compromise and so we'll see if there really double standards in their behavior i mean i know the answer i can tell you this immediately right now yes there are double standards but we're not going to fall for that this is my opinion that maybe there will be some other government in serbia that will accept it but i think this is not going to happen in our generation seem to get below what's happening from the other side wants to see closer as part of the union costs or sponsored feeling european union how it serbia feel about that if possible got a e.u.

membership of course on also the course of all cannot become a member of the european union but i let me point out that you should be reading carefully what the documents of the european union say they do have an agreement of association with costs of on but that's if you could say so it's a mini agreement they agreed with the course of or not as a state but as a territory with a spare. way of marking it exactly for the reason that there are five members that have not recognized kosovo yet that this agreement hasn't been ratified by all countries but was recognized by the european parliament we should be very clear on that if there is no agreement in the union if we don't reach a compromise it is very difficult for kosovo to become part of the european union and they should be told so someone should be telling them that in this sense some feel that this case was finished in two thousand and eight no well it has not been finished if that was the case why would they be pressuring us now why is it that

important for them what we have to say obviously this is fair is not over yet. ok let's pretend that the cost of the issue is not a cost of the issue for serbia to become part of the u. let's just talk about the criteria that have been put forward. for serbia to join the uni and i know that. there are so harsh that it's almost like climbing the everest could it be a european claim to actually make it so hard for serbia to enter the thing you want to enter. when he has said the bit about the himalayas he was referring to of course of all in the fact is that the union regardless of the lack of a unified position probably most of its members would like serbia it's a very nice kosovo. we are for a compromise in the albanians do not want to discuss it at all that is why it's

difficult it's difficult because only one side is exposed to pressure in that sense which said that there were great obstacles before us but that has been known to happen to someone to who climbs the himalayas and mount everest. but i'm talking more about the criteria for the west balkan countries to join the e.u. more likely. economic criteria is that also have been put forward and very tough why are they so tough because last time when you previously offered western balkans to become part of the union only one state crush it became like what two thousand and three no no other western balkan states. frankly speaking joining the european union is a complex process and it implies progress and reforms to be made in all segments there's thirty five chapters to cover but as far as serbia is concerned i have to

be very frank i don't think they're really interested in how much progress serbia has made they're more interested in how much progress was made regarding course of them so even the dialogue was burdened with political connotations and that's what really bothers us the only thing that they're going to consider is whether or not we're going to accept some sort of concessions in dialogue with pristina. because the e.u. strategy also says that none of the western balkan states can be considered as a functioning market economy i mean serbia has just completed a three year and left program with flying colors you actually the economic results exceeded all expectations if you're not a market economy then what are you. there were some proposals to form a joint market in the ball can be done with this but many in our region are allergic to proposals aimed at unity because it reminds them of former yugoslavia

for example of course of montenegro and some other states were not willing to accept any proposals like that because they see them as something where serbia will be dominant because serbia by size is bigger than many others combined together. it would be as if someone in the european union. we don't want a common european market because germany would be dominant there so there are many obstacles that are not related to costs of over here. but we should be working on those of course strengthening bilateral relations searching for resolutions of disputes that we in the former yugoslavia and countries and of course encouraging economic developments. and then there is also the serbian people and how they feel about entering the you for instance of a survey from virginal cooperation council which says that seventy percent of serbs

believe that the country will be part of the twenty twenty five and thirty three states serbia will probably never even join. you know this is joke that iraq what's the difference between not in this in the past and this is things that it's actually by twenty twenty five albania when you when serbia is to is president and then the pessimists think that serbia will enter the un all being president so why is there such a discrepancy between what the government wants and what the people want but. i think it's a reaction permanence which of the terms of an internal and external politics will talk about internal affairs different politicians give promises usually on the eve of the elections and then nothing happens on the other hand the european union often gave so to speak moving targets literally to do something and then literally to do something else the way the e.u. citizens are tired of enlargement the same way the citizens in western balkans are

tired of reforms in that sense perhaps it's realistic for serbia and montenegro to be members in twenty twenty five if we can include negotiations but other countries are not in that package perhaps not all of them will answer at the same time they call it the regards a principle. i have one last question about china if you don't mind that china has been heavily investing in serbia for the last couple of years and that makes the european union worried i think maybe that's why when they put forward a plan for the better west balkan states to become part of the e.u. in twenty twenty five but would you be willing to give up all those chinese contracts for your ego membership because they don't want conform you norms and standards. but some countries in the european union are jealous and opposed

to the strengthening of our economic cooperation with china or russia for that matter but that does not mean that the same is true when they are involved with china look at it until a miracle goes to china and brings along business people and then signs a lot of contracts in china medical north and central europeans agreed to the russia project north stream so that's ok when they deal with it and when we want to do the south stream gas pipe then it's not ok we are not going to violate any standards any principles regarding regulating the economic deals but with china and russia we are strategic partners we have agreements we have such agreements with france as well because we shall surely continue that cooperation so far russia is a bigger investor than china and we like that welcome that we are happy as we are happy to welcome any other country which isn't coming to us by

a military airplane or because there were any money on him. thank you very much for this and all the best of luck with everything and helpless. in some american cities the police. point to reputation people who walk on the streets of the united states who are at risk from the very people who are supposed to protect that people are no more afraid of the police than.

address as a threat directed at the u.s. moscow claims it has no intention of using its military might high tech weaponry is intended only to preserve the global balance of power as what i reports if you aren't russian in the first hour of putin's speech would have been boring taxes and corruption science and industry that sort of thing after that though it got real hot real fast and i mean russia is a major nuclear power basically nobody wanted to talk to us nobody listened to us so listen to us now rockets laser nukes in a rush hooted unveiled an arsenal of new weapons bigger faster stronger and deadlier than any that came before. it'll be the some out super heavy i.c.b.m.

two hundred ton missile capable of penetrating any existing defense in service at the end of the year next an enigmatic new development seemingly nuclear powered cruise missile it flies extremely low to avoid detection and can hit almost anywhere in the world says putin up next is just fantastic an underwater drone submarine also nuclear powered with nuclear payload it can reportedly underwater for months and months silent and media undetectable next to the oven god the hypersonic missile extremely foster rockets that can actively dog and the vaid anti missile defenses. that is heading for the target like a meteorite to top all of that off laser weapons systems though putin didn't go

into detail saying only that it still classified the russian president says one of these isn't to intimidate or scare anyone or invade anyone these serious weapons designed for one thing restore and garan see russia's strategic power in an age where an ever expanding nato is trying to nullify it last when it was we have no plans and have never had plans to use this potential to achieve offensive or aggressive in russia's in hands military power is simply a guarantee for peace on our planet for it preserve. restore parity in the world sure that there's no point in engaging in a senseless arms race after all mutually assured destruction has kept the world safe for the best part of a century. not everyone though by president putin's explanation of the thinking behind his speech he was pressed about it in an interview with n.b.c.

several analysts in the west have said this is the declaration of a new cold war are we in a new arms race right now my point of view is the individuals who have said that a new cold war has started are not really analysts they do propaganda if you were to speak about arms race then an arms race began at exactly the time in moment when the u.s. opted out of the anti-ballistic missile treaty to stress this point that the new weapons need to balance the world powers who have been pointed out the u.s. missile defense has already deployed in alaska and california and the following nato expansion into the east two sites have been opened up in romania and poland and new sites soon set to be established in japan and south korea and apart from ground launched weapons systems the us complex also includes a naval component meaning that america currently has five navy cruisers and thirty

destroyer ships stationed right along russia's eastern borders we spoke to several defense analysts who think the russian president's speech was not intended as a threat. it was defense karen's competition and containment no aggression no thoughts of starting off initiating a war which is reassuring the defense versus the orphans missile technology and the chronology has probably reached a new phase. of speech and the americans even though they have known at least in general terms that these weapon systems are in the pipeline probably react with some surprise at the advanced stage in which they were unveiled these are not designed for war fighting these are designed to send a very clear message that president putin said quite clearly which is that these

three systems are basically saying if you mess with us we will nuke you and we will not hold back now that is a strategic statement it's not a statement about escalating to deescalating which is what the russians are often accused of and were accused of officially by the american government in the nuclear posture review which is indeed a dangerous. doctrine but it's not a real doctrine that the russians have ever endorsed reaction to putin's revelations about russia's nuclear capabilities has come in from the pentagon as well it said it was not surprised adding it had actually been expecting such an announcement but had tensions though were pretty high at the u.s. state department as r.t.s. american reports. well the state department says that russia's new hypersonic missile violates international treaties and heather now it was particularly concerned about the video or imagery that was released claiming that it shows the missile targeting the u.s. and when reporters asked about this the scene turned pretty ugly and now revealed

just how uncomfortable she was when she slammed the russian reporters who pressed her on this as officials of the russian government will slaughter taken the united states interests new styles all sent a different direction so i had to say that they are you know you ran from there she didn't. say that ok enough said then i'll move on. which is when you get it veered out and they're not. officials of the russian government they're just asking a question about me oh really ok well we know that. r.t. and other russian news or so-called news organizations are there i'm good and directed by the russian government so if i don't have a lot of how this should be no matter how they are going he said she will think about it moment this is my video is this video that you're talking about yesterday pushing their colleagues who is not an excuse me for and it was met with significant backlash from reporters all throughout the room but how did she respond

with several doses of sarcasm of course but for the record this is her usual m.o. when she wants to avoid answering questions in the past he referred to me and my colleagues as representatives of the russian government and then made a berridge of questions now or shut down the entire press conference and then rejected a reporter's question which rightfully upset the reporter who then stood up from her chair and followed an hour out of the room we've got it we've got to go on iraq for these i will talk to you after the no the iraqi parliament voted wednesday to call for a timetable for the iraq for foreign troops. now it's unclear what exactly agitated is now or if it. could have been the continuous stream of questions regarding the american reaction to president putin's address but journalists in the room were all defending each other so i wonder if we'll hear any complaints from the other reporters. a video has emerged showing the moments

leading up to a palestinian man's death during an israeli raid in the west bank i should warn you you may find the following scenes disturbing. could be seen running down the alley wielding some sort of object he's then shot by an israeli soldier the soldier and his colleagues proceed to kick him on the ground and then drag him along an alley is to us about the died a short time later the israeli army has changed its version of what happened several times firstly the i.d.f. said he had attacked the soldiers with a knife and received first aid at the scene but then they said he had attacked them with an iron bar and was swiftly taken to hospital according to the idea latest statement on the incident mr assad he died from tear gas inhalation of a soldier who fired a shot at a saudi was interviewed by i.d.f. investigators in his statement he said he thought his life was in danger we spoke to a member of the revolutionary council who said.
