so reckless will soon face the war crimes tribunal but journalist and balkans and story and a bunch of relics stabs that he'll get a fair trial in the hague we want to just part of the entire set of political and police and military leaders there a city wide this one trying to demonstrate that everything that happened in the eighty's was equally answerable in spirits so you're not really putting watching trouble putting all shirt and all should be and. all efforts to peace serbia is the aggressor any perpetrator for crimes you could justify contravention that. you will form a new community in one thousand and two when it recognize the breakaway republics of parisian seniors and states the problem is when. intervene in ninety five and in court against looking for the civil war in bosnia and when it came out all the bullshit all of those things build up as justifications you can we support and great interest because these are evil people will never repeat them as will people you have to put them on trial run or. and it's a spirit black and white philosophy back to one task like chance in

it's known has been established as a legal tool for dealing with crimes committed throughout the balkan wars of the nineteen nineties not many people here in serbia believe that in their specific cases they hague tribunal is an objective tool they see it more is a political one not a legal one because for them it seems that the courts are biased against serbia bringing justice to thousands of victims that's one self-proclaimed success of the international criminal tribunal for the former yugoslavia and it's ready to deliver some more serbia to extradite former bosnian serb army chief that cannot reach. he's accused of crimes against humanity and origin in one thousand nine hundred five massacre in the village of city but he needs. despite living on the run for sixteen years and having suffered two strokes the sixty nine year old general has been deemed fit enough to stand trial and that one person we have spoken to police he will get a fair trial there surely a lot of evidence to back up the serbs distrust of the i c t y so what do the people here based their judgment on a lot of people

it's known has been established as a legal tool for dealing with crimes committed throughout the balkan wars of the one nine hundred ninety s. not many people here in serbia believe that in their specific cases the hague tribunal is an objective tool they see it more is a political one not a legal one because for them it seems that the courts are biased against serbia and this of course is supported by some evidence you have people like that on the last of it out of a crowd it's now up a lot of it and various other bosnian generals are guerrilla leaders across liberation army members all of those who either of voided a trial altogether or were completely acquitted of all charges by that same tribunal so for the people here in serbia extraditing wattage to the hague will mean he will not get a fair trial. bringing justice to thousands of victims that's one self-proclaimed success of the international criminal tribunal for the former yugoslavia and it's ready to deliver some more serbia prepares to extradite former bosnian serb army chief that's going live each day he's accused of crimes

on the balkan experience? >> well, i think it cses one part of it in terms of being able to both have karadzic and mall lad ditch in the hue and milosevic who was there dead and had been on trial. but the balkan story continues. it is a fascinating story of how a group of people can find some solace for some of the crimes that have been committed but also how to find democratic government and become part of the european system. in terms of my own experience with this, i was the u.n. ambassador at the time we voted to establish the war cmes tribunal. there were a lot of people who thought it might never work, there would be no judges, no indictments and that has been provenrong. also, listening all the time to what was going on in bosnia on a dailyasis as u.n. also dorr was terrible and wanting the americans to take a position which we ultimately did and then charlie, the thing i did was to get declassified the photographs of what wagoing on in srebrenica. we had pictures that showed... had been an empty field,

and former military leaders said that while you are rich accused of mass murders during the balkan war of the one nine hundred ninety s. enter politics having also avoided justice. this many suggest is a very clear indicator that the hague tribunal is being used as a political tool not a legal one. of the article or is it justice or something else events that happened in the balkans were they a question of law geopolitics or someone else's interests i believe that all the peoples of former yugoslavia of victims if we let ourselves be involved in a war in the twentieth century for the third time for the sake of foreign interests and no one emerged as a winner the balkan crisis was created much earlier has long been unfolding before our eyes and it has nothing to do with law or justice and the law of this tribunal is going to provide a cover for it. that doesn't believe his father will get a fair trial but at the very least the hague for him better treatment. or spend it with. you don't need to be an expert to understand my father is in a very poor condition he can't even read he has to

the russians are coming in and occupying eastern european and the balkan nation.i but at some point maybe even then me, but don't hold me to it, they wanted to know who were the oss officers that were in country. because they were still working together trying to round up not see holdovers toward the end of the war. so they exchange information on that. eventually though the russians knew that the oss officers in eastern europe were going to be spying on them as much as working with them. and they force them all out of the balkan nations in the oss but there was a brief exchange of information. >> did the british fear any of the details about the enigma operation with donovan? >> yes. they shared -- donovan had men, men and women in the park working with the british. and they got access to the raw take. the british were very, very important in helping donovan said that his counterintelligence operations called x. do. it's ironic that a shared more of their intercept working americans did. donovan never had direct access to magic. magic was the navy army code-break

and nato experience and lessons learned during the balkan campaign against the serbs and nato claims that the target could dasi or his family totally can predict their actions and completely deprives the nato alliance any claims for moral superiority and in fact equalizes them completely leave those criminals or perpetrators or terrorists they claim they are fighting against. clashes continue in syria with a number of dead has already sort of hundred it's increased speculation it's set to become the next target of foreign intervention. from london says any further nato action would have far reaching consequences. it is notable that former way six a journalistic group has been quoted here in this country as saying that the reports from on the ground in syria to match what our agencies are saying as to what's happening in syria of course illegal with syria would result. in so much disastrous. consequences i mean the straits of hormuz palestinian groups of people in egypt would probably rise up against it because syria is such a linchpin of. everything that is against us at your money e

here the state of the system is clear is it justice or something else events that happened in the balkans were the question of law geopolitics or someone else's interests and i believe that all the peoples of former yugoslavia of victims we let ourselves be involved in a war in the twentieth century for the third time for the sake of foreign interests and no one emerged as a winner of the balkan crisis was created much earlier it's long been unfolding before our eyes and it has nothing to do with law or justice and the law of this tribunal is going to provide a cover for it's a hot commodity has been on the run for sixteen years and suffered two strokes the sixty nine year old former general is in very poor health physically and mentally according to his lawyers and his family serbia is looking to gain access to billions of dollars worth of grant aid should of course aid be granted e.u. membership and capturing article modish was one of the key conditions for that the people on the streets saying that they believe that the law this is a national hero that is exactly why they took to the s

imposed on the balkan conflict very early on the idea of once for instance that somehow connected to a question which is completely untrue the main fighting was obviously in. no role in the war at all what we've been reporting people war was mutual to people and muslims wanted to see from yugoslavia. what he proposed and yet complicated civil war was projected an idea that serbia had some one of its neighbors and a lot of political capital has been invested in proving that he says and that's the reason why i say be the best you determine how to prove it with a straight political indictment all right political analyst and historian john locke and they're talking lots of other breaking news here on r.t. thank you thank you art well with what i two million people in jail the u.s. has the world's biggest prison population and some are seeing the inside of a cell because dodgy judges are getting payback from the private sector got into kind of courts and i was dishing out justice for three. two pennsylvania judges have made a killing out of juvenile prisoners marc several and michael cona

again, balkan crisis. similarly, in turkey we have such close interaction with arabs, with kurdish population of the region. so we are all interactive. this is our history. we cannot ignore our history. therefore until we believe in responding this historical transformation in a reactive manner and... >> rose: how will you contribute proactively? >> in many issues like... rose: take iran, as one. where yohave said that turkey, for example, i think the word you used was that turkey can speak critically to iran. >> yes. >> rose: how will you do that? >> it is interesting. i mean, have a regional charter, even multicontinental. if a turkish or foreign minisr speaks in tehran with an iranian counterpart we can speak in a very friendly frank, manner as a neighbor. or in cairo we can speak with egyptians as one of them. in brussels we can speak as a european. again in brussels we can sak as a member of nato. and these are not conflicting. therefore the potential of communication of turkey with many actors at the

so, i would like to see them have a more proactive strategy in the balkans. what we have found is countries as a recent member of nato, they generally do well inside the alliance because they pick up best practice, they use with the colleagues. it's a very easy way of sharing information of saying, hey, we don't like this, you've got to do something about it, without making it an official diplomatic hoo ha. i think you should use your channels within nato to do that. >> thank you very much. thanks for testimony. appreciate it. thank you. >> my colleague and i are going to go visit the greek, cyprus and turkey and will probably have some questions for you down the road. one of the troubling things, at least it troubles me, is indicated, was that the eu seems to want to u serp some of the intelligence capabilities, the dissemination of intelligence information between the united states and these countries. that's troubles because as you said before, we've had pretty good working relationship with most of those european countries regarding intelligence gathering

germany has missed the possibilities to discuss really the situation after 1989 when operations in the balkans and later in afghanistan started. society and politics have not discussed this. so the army now has to jump into something which might be a novice. >> so why have reforms to make the army more effective in foreign deployments? >> the defense secretary made very interesting remarks today. he said germany has to prepare for operations. at first glance, they are not in the interest of the country, but germany has to care for the strength of the united nations and for operations worldwide. this is only something new. if you like, this reflects the very poor situation for germany when the libyan war started. jimmy, during the last weeks, has had to learn that, when you are not joining, no one will ask you. >> thank you very much. as you can see, there is still a fair amount of discussion. germany plans -- which in germany blasted do now was done by the netherlands several years ago. it abolished compulsory service. this started to prepare for the needs of a career military. >> they are pre
