and outside of serbia, milosevic relied on the police forces, which actually ended up in the positione armed forces. moreover, the state officially denied them often. well, informal groups. how successful. they fought very successfully motivated, mostly volunteers with a variety of combat experience. there were quite a lot of people from the diaspora on the serbian side there. captain, dragon didn't even call him by his last name. he was assembling a semblance of a foreign legion. it turned out frighteningly for the croats to form braids, and not all of them somehow resembled a battalion. azov people are extremely wrong in their views , fans of sasha but dashing, warriors, similar to the serbs. well, it turns out that they were ideologically very motivated, definitely. yes, the croatian side of the serbian is more difficult, the same arkan had a rich criminal past. including in sweden and scandinavia, in general, there has always been vkontakte with the yugoslav secret services. so to speak he solved some issues for them from the diaspora , the arcana also had commercial interests, by

and he saw this in yugoslavia and the fall of milosevic. and i can remember quite vividly being at the white house and how devastated it was for the russians to see their ally milosevic go down in flames after a student led movement remove him. and one of the things that i found in the book, just coming back to the nerdy part of the book, was this great interview with president clinton about the covert action finding he signed and using covert action a tool for encouraging the student uprising. and so i can bet, you know, you know, i don't have any proof, but i would certainly bet the russians were onto this us level of involvement in the student uprising in serbia and that created a view that i think is, you know, still deeply held today that the united states is aiming for nothing less than putin's ouster, and that that's the ultimate of us policy and. you think that that continues to animate putin today? absolutely. and so should we do about that? well, i don't think you can ever now, given the of blood on putin's hands, given the horrib

increasingly being attacked and beaten by serbian peasants, no one dares to beat you - answered milosevicfortunately since then serbs in kosovo were beaten and killed by regular forces, they took away the region itself, they are beaten there today, but the serbs are already trying to fight back. because of what the balkans were on the brink of war about why this is happening and whether there is a chance to stop the historical retreat of the serbian people and today's program will be discussed to help understand this topic , i will be a political scientist today. hello vladimir maksimovich yan associate professor of the department of sociology of the financial university under the government of the russian federation hello, good afternoon and dragon stanovievich joins us as the leader of the entire serbian movement of patriots of the motherland and diasport. well, of course. to begin with, and the traditional blitz in our program is the question, kosovo for the serbs. lost forever. dragon can not, nor immediately address this question to you. well, it will never be lost, because it's not

he has neverforgiven mr vucic for being a minister in the milosevic government in the 1990s.ery young, he was information minister in the 1990s, and he's never forgiven him for that. he does not accept mr vucic�*s protestations that he's changed, that he switched parties from the radicals to the progressive party, that he's pro—european these days, that serbia is in eu accession negotiations. mr kurti doesn't see any of that. mr vucic views mr kurti as part of a formerly, what was formerly viewed by many countries as a terrorist organisation, the kosovo liberation army. and he makes his contempt for mr kurti equally clear. does it really matter beyond the two men's hostility towards each other? how disturbing is that for the balkans generally? when there's an actual war going on in ukraine, you do not want a frozen conflict flaring up in the western balkans. that's a distraction that the united states and the european union simply don't need at this time. now, the presence of the nato peacekeepers in kosovo to a great extent keeps everyone honest. in fact, the commander of kf

maybe they act and think about it, but to openly proclaim it like it used to be in milosevic's time ist of the blocking of their activities by europeans , americans, and so on, so it's really turbulent in belgorod. it's been a long time there were accumulated problems in the contradictions of the existing government , well, meanwhile, they were reminded that after all, if there really is such a rejection of the government, win the elections, and so far in them . unfortunately , it was not possible to win the elections, now these street protests can shake the situation for that to go to early elections. maybe they will have a chance to win, so to speak, we'll see, but for now , the studio is not talking about whether to announce early elections, and now you can't bypass the situation by fighting around inside kosovo, in principle, you see a way out of the situation, and i'm just asking you, not the first, and i think not the last. 90 there are 5%, they are serbs who do not want to obey the official line of kosovo, but kosovo, on the contrary, says that you must obey and obey our orders

serbs ended up there as hostages a little because they, on the one hand, are responsible for what milosevicid and, of course, kosovo was destroyed by serbs and there is even evidence that kosovars kidnapped serbs and even there they found a room in which there are such arguments that people may have been killed and their organs were used. that is, well let's say a lot of things that happened in kosovo, they are so terrible, and that's why, in fact , when the government allowed many things to happen to the albanian government in the kosovo government, this led to the fact that they got used to being allowed everything even if they will not do something, of course, the service from their side puts such pressure on the serbs living in kosovo because for the students that this is a political thing for him. it is important for him to show that he supports the serbs of kosovo. although he actually understands the situation and he is ready to regulate some relations, but if he demonstrates this in the country, then he loses support, that is, for him, any other position than support for the kosul s

a lot of people weren't got lower down the line, but people like milosevic, you mentioned, the serbianthe bosnian serbs, they are now in prison, serving life for genocide, etc etc. so that was a remarkable achievement in doing all of that. now these processes, these verdicts today, the tribunal itself ended in 2017. this has still been going on, because war crimes procedures are very, very complicated. if we fast forward to ukraine, some people are saying, let's try and have the same thing for ukraine. it's not going to happen, not in this same form, because for yugoslavia, it was set up by the united nations security council, it had that legitimacy and legality. russia is a veto—wielding permanent member of the security council. they are not going to vote for a tribunal to investigate what they are doing. jeremy has recorded a great new podcast called the front lines ofjournalism, available on bbc sounds and on bbc radio 4. he goes on his own experiences as a reporter, a war reporter, over many decades. he poses a fundamental question, really, is it enough to just report it straight?

these two men were operating under the former president slobodan milosevic, in training these death squadsthey were found guilty of committing these atrocities in one town. the appeals chamber here today decided that, actually, they were liable for crimes committed beyond this town. murder, persecution, forcible transfer, deportation of non—serbs from unit a palette is, and that is why these sentences have been increased. are the two men able to appeal? this was an appeals verdict, so no, it cannot be appealed. 0ne no, it cannot be appealed. one of them was in court today. he is in his early 70s. they are both in their early 70s. the other was following from a detention unit in the hague. 0ne detention unit in the hague. one of the reasons this is so significant, speaking to some of the survivors who made the journey to witness justice in action in the hague is because they say is the final piece of they say is the final piece of the puzzle. it means there is a true account, based on factual evidence, of the serbian state's involvement in these atrocities. and that matters now. it mattered

they mainly focused on the former yugoslavia in president milosevic in kosovo and throughout the balkans 2000, eight accusations of war crimes on the coast of onside emerged in a tell-all book written by a swiss prosecutor. she alleged the kosovo liberation army, that was the rebels fighting, had also committed torture, they had even harvested organs from serbian prisoners. after the council of europe published evidence of some of those same claims in 2011, a special court was set up at the hague specifically focused on those crimes. seven years later, in 2018, jack smith arrived to take over what was called the kosovo specialist prosecutor's office. by that time, when he arrived in 2018, the courts efforts had largely stalled. it was kind of a more ribboned investigation. at this point, it had been nearly two decades since the actual war and the war crimes had been committed. crucially, the former leaders of that rebel army were now in charge of the newly independent country. one of them rose to become the prime minister and then the president. as one of jack smith processors explained,

time about the american authorities, serbia was handed over to the hague tribunal sloboda against milosevicrbs. probably hard to overestimate. sergey khoroshevsky valeriya polukhina vladoy rodovicha boris khilchikov european bureau of ntv serbia no this is the program today. in france , the city hall and cars are on fire after a police officer shot a teenager. what is the alternative for germany , the representative of the opposition, and how do the germans think the pro-russian party won the local elections for the first time? could this result affect the domestic and foreign policy of germany, including in relation to russia, did edmund zhelbanov find out? maestro burger for 149 rubles. with the kfc application, the halva card opens the door to a fantastic shopping experience, even during the period of discounts and sales, any purchases will become even more pleasant with an installment plan for 10 months and a cashback of up to 10% allah is only one card for all purchases in a package up to 25% open for free in the ozon bank application. it seems that you have changed a lot on the first

let him remember the fate of gaddafi hussein milosevic. time were given guarantees when they signed an agreement on bosnia, herzegovina gave guarantees to the children, they didn’t give a damn if god forbid how they plan to deal with russia and belarus, the next ones will they won’t even wait for the final act, therefore protection independence sovereignty of these states january 22 in kazakhstan this showed it is no further from russia and belarus will lick us. this is the only way i want to support vadim of france. we still need to clearly understand and explain to our people that all these measurements of theirs are guarantees. this is an element of their strategy to destroy opponents all the point. everything they promise. they then serve as their military cunning. in fact, this is a line, if we take, let's say british history, let's say the development of the british empire it has been working for probably 250 years. what they say they do not absolutely hide their ambitions and today even the departure of the very same united states q

croatian do not be afraid for your attention than milosevic. serbs. they just announced the main villains of europe and all in the nineties. they say they really were kings of europe the underworld from sweden to spain but even here everything has changed a long time ago, namely kosovar. now he controls drug trafficking in the eu, as well as the trade in weapons and live goods , it is believed that albanians have both cosa nostra and drangtet on parcels. in general, europe's hatred of contempt and rational. it's probably something in the category. yes, we mishulilis, but do not apologize. now in front of them. however, he will not get a place for a long time and internationally sanctioned independence now recognizes the sovereignty of the region only 9 dozen countries, there were more but 28 states. the recognition was withdrawn, however, the businessman and the patriots will not miss theirs, they will press someone else's again for five, until someone else's rifle rests in their nose again, then they will give in a little, but only a little wa

talk about war criminals, we talk about people like washir and qaddafi and those are people and milosevicead or in prison but the only way to get from your today with prudent evolves in a norma's amount of danger. that's why the story with mr. pegsian this weekend was so interesting. tom: this is not political but the angst over dick cheney years ago and some of the angst of the military over president trump, do you have an understanding of the military command and control of their missiles versus the focused group in the kremlin? >> i think we have greater concern about the disposition, not just of russian snoops but also the biological capability and its criminal cyber gangs who are the strongest and most capable of any country in the world. that has all been marginal through russian state power and if you say how dangerous is that today? i want to remind everybody that we're vladimir putin has been tested in an unprecedented fashion, none of this senior military advisors or government leaders or major oligarchs bleeds. none of them defected. none of them came out against putin and his

and that someone in the west was outraged by this, i heard a lot about crimes, milosevics in the westt of ethnic cleansing of the ninety-fifth year. so what, who cares? it's time for us to understand that, as they say, we have a value-based foreign policy. it is nothing more than a tool. no values. they were not interested, they are not interested and will not be interested; they are only interested in the naked geopolitical situation. now, uh, let's get back to the australian story, which is very interesting, why is it interesting to me, because i keep asking myself the question. and what we actually expected from australia, let me remind you that it was one of the most traditionally unfriendly states for us, even in the so -called golden gorbachev yeltsin times for friendship with the west. mikhail sergeevich tried in the eighty-seventh year to sign an agreement on the basis of relations with australia australians. we were categorically denied everything that mikhail sergeevich lesnoy could say at that time 87. this is what we did not disregard even distant australia in our style. a

yes, there is nearby, the village of milosevic.inian and belarusian partizans , went on his famous carpathian campaign and reached the very border of soviet ukraine western border. cutting all these supply lines. uh, nato weapons, well, weapons of the third reich. well, let's use an appropriate analogy to spend today, but destroy the communications of the nazis there, and to a large extent an unparalleled campaign. what do i mean by the fact that maybe it's time to remember the science, uh, to win not only on the front line, but also behind the front lines. especially as we see it now. what method of struggle against russia does the west resort to sabotage terrorist. eh, and in general, he’s not shy about anything now this is an investigation, so to speak, yes , which was published yesterday by a number of western newspapers, which were allegedly carried out by the german dutch media with reference to, uh, information from the dutch secret service, m. ive. yes. uh, supposedly it was the secret service that received the bombings in
