kosovo had unmik, kosovo had united nations mission in kosovo, eulex, we had icty and another special but it is here now. but they are not asking for my cooperation, so i give them my support, to be honest. because it's a very non—transparent sui generis court with one leg in kosovo and the other leg in hague. so, it is a much more complex situation with this latest court. i believe that we need normal courts that are going to try all war and peace crimes in spite of the ethnicity of the perpetrators and not as it has been done with a specialist court. but, let's hope that this can be corrected and rectified in the near future. mr prime minister, i need to ask you a very basic question and it's based upon flags. right behind you on screen, i can see the flag, the official state flag of kosovo, but you personally, it seems, much prefer to be photographed with the albanian flag behind you and that is because you're quite open when you say that albania is one nation divided across two states and you believe kosovo�*s destiny is to be integrated into albania. how can you be the leader of

so when kosovo was not implemented, no serbian of kosovo protested, ever.who was angry. in the 1991, 26th of april, a0 municipalities with a certain majority of bosniaherzegovina, they got together, created their association. the 9th ofjanuary nine, 1992, they declared independence, 28th of february 1992, they got the constitution and finally, 14th of december 1985 in dayton ohio, they wanted to repeal bosnian kosovo and i might want to allow this. be it in our position or the government. and that is that people voted to prevent this in kosovo. i am confident that with our programme, we are going to help serbs is much as albanians. if you ask serbs in kosovo what are your key complaints or requirements, they will sayjobs and justice. but belgrade wants to have a state within a state. the state of serbia with independence. there is one obvious way out of this and it is a way that was seen by your former president and that was small limited swaps with serbia which they could integrate with their country and the minority and you can get some recompense with la

i that your vision for the future of kosovo?— of kosovo? i consider unfair injustice _ of kosovo?injustice and there - of kosovo? i consider unfair injustice and there is - of kosovo? i consider unfair injustice and there is no - injustice and there is no possibility to have referendum. and that referendum would be an expression of the freedom of the people. but now, this time, here, what i am, i have been elected for jobs and elected forjobs and justice and this is what i will be doing in the many years to come. independence of kosovo is not against serbs and independence of kosovo is independence of kosovo is independence from serbia and not from albania.— not from albania. throughout our not from albania. throughout your political— not from albania. throughout your political career, - not from albania. throughout your political career, you've l your political career, you've been seeing a something of a firebrand, a guy who was prepared to take direct action it wouldn't even let off tear gas in the parliamentary chamber, some worry that you are a force for instability in the bal

they are now at a military base in kosovo. to yet pass the u.s. security vetting system, right. to get into the united states with tens of thousands of other afghans who have already gotten here. now, this doesn't mean they could never come to the united states. because we're told by senior administration official this doesn't mean all of them have been deemed unsuitable for entry. what it means is there are still security vetting that needs to go through a process. and it's not going to take a few hours, a few days, this could take months. so the u.s. military has this agreement with kosovo, a u.s. military pays, to keep them there for now while the u.s. tries to figure out what they are going to do with those who could potentially not pass this security vetting process they're going through. the national security spokesperson said this demonstrates the process is working, right. the fact that these persons have been flagged, not let into the united states demonstrates they have a process under way that is going well. but thi

out of the country and because that's every time our son was in iraq for a year and before that in kosovod you do so much and your families give so much. i really mean it from the bottom of my heart and you're the finest, you're the finest military that the world has ever seen. that's not hyperbole. you literally, you are the finest the world has ever seen. i'm so damn proud to be associated with you. it's hard for me to even say it, but the thing that is amazing to me is how proud i am to be your commander in chief. you are the most incredible group of women and men, warriors that we've ever seen. we came because we wanted to thank you, tell you how much we care and hear the engine of air force one so you couldn't hear anything. that was the main reason we did that. but all kidding aside, thank you, thank you, thank you for all that you do. you're the very best. you really are. you are the very, very best. we owe you big. thank you.

could trump face legal problems with sending him to kosovo as an envoy ambassador?e any impact whatsoever? >> it's going to have absolutely no impact except getting ric grenell and donald trump some much needed attention, which is clearly what they're doing with this exercise. you know, previously it's frowned upon for former presidents to be active in international affairs and do something that could be contrary to the current administration, but obviously that kind of nicety is something that donald trump is never going to heed by, and this is just really dumb. an envoy ambassador? what is that? it's and double name for some position that doesn't even exist, and i'm just glad that ric grenell really needed some attention, donald trump really needed some attention, and sojd they chose to highlight this exercise, and ric grenell doing his own glorified thing and getting attention by going to the border. >> ric grenell is and famed twitter trash talker, elise. so get ready. your notifications are going to blow up later when he sees this. >>> let's talk about politics
