you go up to the front of that cross thing you're stopped by the pablo and we can see some of the k. four forces on the ground there we saw helicopters coming across and the you like helicopters dropping off some of the police forces to these crossings also the albanian cost the police they've only actually got to eat each of the checkpoints at the moment and that the time being in an observatory role now of course the plan is for them to eventually take over control and that's what much of this dispute best still and now amid concerns of repeat of what we saw in july when violent clashes over the course the government making of me to try and take this place resulted in the death of a policeman it's actually been relatively quiet here today what we stain is a huge number of serbian i think serbians turning out at these barricades with what we could at the moment it's a standoff situation is being called a lord knows because that both the checkpoints and the barricades is the serbian protesters and then the capel forces at the actual crossing themselves ok no one wants to make me take a fu

that reinforcing their barricades with fresh piles of sand on the roads to block these roads for the k. four forces and for the course of a police also we heard helicopters for forces flying into the region every literally. understand that those helicopters are bringing fresh troops to the border crossings to. realize a situation now. let's say seventy two hours since violent clashes at the border between. protecting the barricades and the. almost a dozen men still remain in the hospitals with different. time it is really hard to understand who provoked this violence because the nato forces point the finger at the course of saying that they were the ones who provoked these clashes but at the same time they say they had to use rubber bullets and tear gas grenades against. them. in hospitals here in the. those who were delivered with injuries they are delivered with gunshot wounds so it is really hard to tell what's true and what's false in this whole situation driving around the city we've seen many pictures it's my first time here in more than four years and i've never seen so many serbian f

explosive as we understand that serbs are reinforcing their checkpoints their manmade checkpoints and the k. four nato troops are pulling more soldiers to the front line to the place where the borderline where where the clashes have been happening for the past several months now on tuesday night another clash happened at the checkpoint and at the course of a border the border between kosovo and serbia and this still a great deal of controversy surrounding this incident because of the sides are playing a blame game and nobody knows whom to blame for this attack while nato troops are saying that those were the course of a service who provoked the attack at the same time the nato troops are saying that they used rubber bullets and gas grenades and tear gas grenades against the attackers while we have reports from medical services in the area that the injured were delivered to the hospital carrying gunshot wounds and so it is really hard to say what's true and what's false and all this story and who is to blame for the tuesday's incident meanwhile there has been a very sharp response from belgrade th

it's very naive to think that you lex and k. four are actually helping the pristina government know it looks ok for just continue their policies. under the banner of protecting peace and stability but what the establishment of course of a custom is that these checkpoints the budget of kosovo is being filled up and the finances and economy in kosovo are controlled by international forces and international powers so touchy is merely fulfilling his tasks and it's very naive to think that his mentors will stop him i think the current government in serbia is unwilling to take any measures to protect the serbs other than to talk to international forces and hope that the national forces work will protect the serbs there. we all know that serbia is main goal is to join the european union and they will not jeopardize that even if it means giving up on the hundred thousand serbs hundred thousand plus serbs who live currently in the province of kosovo of course we're always keen to know your views and on our website we're asking what you think

war of nerves because of the checkpoints of the barricades is the serbian protesters and then the k. four forces at the actual crossing themselves at the no one wants to make in these and although the words have been quite diplomatic from what we've heard on base side those calls the calm and for peace but of course the actions to seem quite different than there still seems to be a lot of hostility between both sides that needs to be resolved. so. this week iran's first nuclear power plant went on line the only facility of its kind in the middle east russian built reactors and i work in your forty percent capacity in the say that should be full by december moscow says it will continue providing help and fuel for the plant until around takes full control in twenty fifteen western nations have long been worried about the country's atomic program claiming it's a cover for making nuclear bombs a charge to round repeatedly denied political scientists to early fertility jad from the university of london told us that without evidence around as much right to peaceful nuclear energy as any other n

because that means why do you think about is well you know it's very naive to think that you lex and k. four are actually helping the pushing of government no it looks ok for just continuing their policies. under the banner of protecting peace and stability as you said but with the establishment of course of the customs at this checkpoints the budget of course was being filled up and the finances and economy in kosovo are controlled by international forces and international powers so she is merely fulfilling his tasks and it's very naive to think that his mentors will stop him i where do you think this will lead as a last resort is it possible that this is not used to station their own troops on the border. i think the current government in serbia is unwilling to take any measures to protect the serbs other than to talk to international forces and hope that the international forces work will protect the surge there. we all know that serbia's main goal is to join the european union and they will not jeopardize that even if it means giving up on the hundred thousand serbs hundred thousand plus

your stop by the blow we can see some of the k. four forces on the ground there in a bit i'm not sure how much of it you can see you can also see of course the smoke in the background now we go to places we couldn't it does look like there's some sort of fire happening on the other side of that but we couldn't get any information from the cable forces that with earlier today we saw helicopters coming across and. you like helicopters dropping off some of the police forces to these crossings but it's very unclear as yet whether any of the people being dropped off there are actually the ethnic albanian cause of a police forces we haven't been able to confirm. this of course or going ahead with the all of the clashes that we saw in july when the course of a government tried to take control of the place following prime minister. ban on imports from serbia that resulted in the death of the policeman and also very concerned not to see a repeat of that violence that we heard. un security council calling an emergency meeting yesterday at the req

recalls the albanian part of the serbs in march two thousand and four when these same troops the k. four contingency remained remarkably restrained they didn't even dream of firing on the albanian mob when it went on the rampage torching thousands of serbian homes and destroying dozens of serbian churches including the fourteenth century cathedral in president which the germans were supposed to be guarding while they were diligent clean videotaping the proceedings but didn't move a little finger to stop it it's a message that if it steve believe that nato presence on that front airport line is that the sorry or not of course. it is necessary to the albanian side to shelter impose their rule over the serbian triangle in the north but it is not necessarily quite the country is that the mental from any legal or reasonable political point of view the unfortunate fact is that nato has been taking sides in the former yugoslavia for twenty years and it will be truly shocking if they were trying to say to act differently now i think. for us as nato envoys say that he believes the alliance isn't

diplomatic solution to syria firth has been one of those checkpoints you can see the sign put up by the k four forces it's a warning to the ethnics protest is ok for the nato peacekeeping mission has been working here at the border points with you like they go there bob wire fence is out they've got the sandbags as well and still a number of protesters that have been staying at the barricade of these disputed border points not so many of the men and they've made it very very clear that if anyone tries to remove the barricades that they've made that they're willing to defend and they'll be lots more people coming to the defense as well take a vote of these control points what they see the essex population here in the north as an extension of prishtina is control over the disputed territory now amid concerns repeat of what we saw in july when violent clashes over the course of the government making of me to try and take these places resulted in the death of a policeman is actually being relatively quiet here what we've seen is a huge number of the serbian i think servants turning out at these ba

fact of the i'll be in police that dropped into these checkpoints this morning were transported by k. four helicopters. german commanded forces absolutely enforcing this on on behalf of the course of obedience local government did there's absolutely no doubt about it it's not a question of claims. i think the. call to stop violence and refrain from unilateral actions is extremely cynical coming from the deal lines that is making this possible. and judging by yesterday's statements by nato secretary general saying we are behind course we're one hundred percent and we will not allow twelve years of our efforts to be overturned there's no going back this is what's going to happen how can they even pretend any sort of status neutrality or impartial. the reason trying to. keep between two clashing sentences you to question giants here there's there's the albanian government trying to impose its route on the service of the province which. twelve years of being in abuses to go by not only that they will not get any sort of law and order justice this is a regime that's accused of being essentially

tuesday with more than eleven men injured in those clashes has now been removed or the control of the k. four forces. now eleven men to remain hospitals with different rooms despite the case for forces and nato claims that they used only rubber bullets and tear gas grenades to classify the crowd most of the people injured have gunshot wounds we managed to speak to the doctors in the hospitals they confirmed this information to us that surgeries were performed on these men through remove bullets from their bodies some say this may ask you late into a serious violence in particular the russian foreign ministry has already expressed deep concerns over the situation saying that it could destabilize the things in the already stressed region the melting pot which is in the balkans and indeed everyone is watching how. well will be following this story as it develops and bring you the latest updates on the spot. now russia's president's been explaining why he's not seeking a second you need to stress that he inviting the putin of common goals and that putin's huge popularity among russians will help

for the last several days here but this morning just a short while ago where more than a hundred k. four troops came over them pointed their weapons at the serbs who were barricaded in the checkpoint and told them that this was the border zone and that they needed to leave there were no fights no violence whatsoever and the serbs actually pulled back about five hundred meters from where they stood and very jaded that the bridge there are closer to the road which leads to the border for now thank you. it's the same barricade it was just a little more further away but it seems come from now the case for forces are in full control of the area was. definitely the service which is standing here not really there would be a pretty violent mood and we could be seeing some more tension here before forces also pushed all the journalists away from the area and even the one of our colleagues crew left their car behind the case for line and they actually have to get permission to get their car back so the situation is definitely very tense here and we certainly see some more developments here in the
