[00:00:31] Dodik and Čović confirmed their partnership, stating that they will be [00:00:34] the axis of power, and invited Bakir Izedbegović and Nermin Nikšić [00:00:38] to reach an agreement. For now, we have received information that [00:00:41] the SDP, SDP, [00:00:43] we'll see, [00:00:46] uh, it doesn't just depend on them, whether he will be in power or not. [00:00:50] We care about who is in that Bosniak [00:00:53] capacity, because he shares [00:00:54] power with us. [00:00:59] In tonight's news, we also [00:01:00] bring you. [00:01:05] The Supreme Court of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina confirmed the indictment against the former director [00:01:08] of the Federation's motorways and three more people, within [00:01:12] the case Munjići and others, a decision on filing an indictment is expected [00:01:16] in Poskok, Nikšić and [00:01:19] Isak were heard. [00:01:23] The election campaign from Serbia is spilling over the Drina for [00:01:26] students, obstacles for the current government in Serbia, welcome. [00:01:32] The regime rejoices at the regime, like rejoices [00:01:34] at like. [00:01:38] European Union foreign ministers adopted almost 1,600 [00:01:42] new sanctions targeting the Russian military-industrial [00:01:45] complex. Russia continued attacks on Ukrainian energy [00:01:49] facilities. [00:01:54] Tomorrow without precipitation, but very fresh morning. Sunny [00:01:58] intervals are also expected. [00:02:05] SNSD and HDZ of Bosnia and Herzegovina will dictate [00:02:08] all political agreements, it seems, and political partners from [00:02:11] the Bosniak side. After the meeting held today in Banja Luka by the leaders [00:02:15] of these two parties, the priorities are clear: [00:02:18] ambassadors, armed forces, central election commission and central [00:02:22] bank. [00:02:25] Long-term political partners together again. After the meeting, [00:02:29] a clear message. SNSD and HDZ will lead all [00:02:32] processes of political agreement. The electoral will [00:02:35] of the Bosniak people will be [00:02:38] people died in attacks on respected, not for Dodik, as he says, some are unacceptable, like the DF which disqualified [00:02:42] itself, possibly even the SDP. To some who [00:02:45] showed their rigid views towards [00:02:49] the Croatian people, uh, like the DF, as far as [00:02:52] I understand, and or towards us through various setups [00:02:56] they did, they somehow... [00:03:00] disqualified themselves, so, I [00:03:03] understand Dragan, but I am a person who speaks, so far [00:03:07] we have received information that the SDP, SDP, [00:03:10] we'll see, [00:03:13] uh, it doesn't just depend on them, whether they will be in power or not [00:03:16] in power, but they draw roots from those communists, so maybe [00:03:19] they think that everything they say should be so. I spoke, as [00:03:23] you know, on Friday, but personally with the president of the SDP, [00:03:27] Mr. Nikšić, and likewise on Saturday with Mr. Izetbegović where [00:03:32] investigation into electoral irregularities we met like that, talked a little, he gave a statement [00:03:35] on X, it was public as such, so there's nothing secretive behind it, [00:03:38] they need to sit down, this in some way [00:03:41] recognize the majority with which they can in some way agree, as far as [00:03:45] I see, they are already agreeing at the level of some cantons or counties, so it's not going [00:03:49] that way, is it? They will have to sit down and find a solution, as far as we [00:03:52] are concerned, of course, as my colleague Dodik said, we care about who [00:03:56] is in that Bosniak capacity, because he shares [00:04:00] power with... The leaders of SNSD and HDZ did not hide [00:04:03] what the priorities are. To begin with, after the constitution of the presidency, which [00:04:07] is expected soon, there will be a change of personnel, i.e., ambassadors [00:04:11] appointed by Željko Komšić, then in order. And [00:04:14] then the central bank, as you know, the presidency has [00:04:17] an absolute right of management, after [00:04:20] that or within that and the system [00:04:23] of defense, army and everything that needs to be [00:04:27] done. We will support the constitution. of the presidency, isn't [00:04:31] that normal and [00:04:33] efforts that will then go to establish [00:04:36] a normal system of work in the presidency, in [00:04:41] it. there is a December 2022 we agreed, if you remember, that we would immediately resolve the issue [00:04:45] of the central election commission, so here another election passed with [00:04:48] the same structure established outside the law and not to list all [00:04:52] other things we said, the election law is of course extremely [00:04:55] extremely important to us, otherwise the president of the SNSD, as he said [00:04:59] today... He is convinced that in the House of Peoples of the parliamentary assembly he will have [00:05:03] a controlling package, four, possibly five delegates, in the [00:05:06] House of Representatives with coalition partners even 10 [00:05:09] representatives, he also invited the opposition to... talks on [00:05:13] joint action, HDZ, let's remember, also dominant in [00:05:17] the parliamentary assembly with only one seat of the Croatian five, [00:05:20] SDA, on the other hand, has nine mandates, with HDZ and [00:05:24] SNSD has a majority, as things stand now, two-thirds [00:05:28] with SDF and the party for Bosnia and Herzegovina or on [00:05:31] the other hand with SDP. By the way, negotiations on forming the government [00:05:35] are taking place in an atmosphere of actually scandalous [00:05:39] publications by American media about lobbying firms [00:05:42] that work for SNSD, i.e., the government of Republika [00:05:46] Srpska, one of these contracts mentions [00:05:49] an independent Republika Srpska. Milorad Dodik did not [00:05:53] talk about this today, nor did journalists in Banja Luka ask him, except that foreign [00:05:56] policy, as he said, is degraded and that it should return [00:05:59] to the presidency. Tina Jelindizdar, [00:06:02] N1. [00:06:05] The claims of lobbyists that an independent Republika Srpska is supported by Israel and [00:06:09] Saudi Arabia were reacted to today by the head of BH diplomacy. Jelmedin Konaković [00:06:13] said that similar meetings with Riyadh officials were not [00:06:16] held. Namely, Konaković referred to the report of the lobbying [00:06:20] firm Dickensen Madson which works for the regime of Milorad Dodik in [00:06:23] Republika Srpska, about the report that Aryeh Ben Manaše, a former Israeli [00:06:27] intelligence officer and lobbyist, submitted to American authorities. It is stated [00:06:31] that officials from Israel and Saudi Arabia advocated for [00:06:35] the interests of Republika Srpska before the American government and that [00:06:38] this was agreed upon at a series of meetings that were held. [00:06:44] "The picture you will see was taken during the Munich [00:06:48] conference, in the picture is the Minister of Foreign [00:06:52] Affairs of Saudi Arabia, Prince [00:06:55] Faisal bin Farhan Al-Saud. [00:06:58] I showed the Minister of Foreign Affairs that disputed contract between the Government [00:07:02] of Republika Srpska and the lobbyist Menače, a former Mossad [00:07:05] agent, who promised to arrange [00:07:08] a meeting at the highest level with the royal [00:07:11] family, with the authorities." Ministers in [00:07:14] Saudi Arabia asked our friends that such a meeting not [00:07:18] happen, such a meeting has, of course, never [00:07:22] happened to this day, I don't know if this is an attempt by this Menače [00:07:25] to justify the millions he took from Dodik, so he only lies to [00:07:28] Dodik or they both Dodik and Menače are lying again [00:07:31] to Serbs in Bosnia and Herzegovina to make it look like Dodik is somehow [00:07:35] important or eventually has support for secession, that is [00:07:39] a question for them, we are not very interested in that, what we know and I spoke. [00:07:42] of course, again with our friends in Saudi Arabia [00:07:46] who these days have serious problems, [00:07:51] airports, there is no support from Saudi Arabia for secession [00:07:54] in Bosnia and Herzegovina whatsoever. [00:07:58] We will continue with the news about elections and election results. Manipulation [00:08:02] of election results through scanners was not possible, announced the [00:08:06] Central Election Commission of Bosnia and Herzegovina, after the appearance of, as [00:08:09] they state, dangerous disinformation about specific election [00:08:12] technologies that could jeopardize the integrity [00:08:15] of the election process, they explained that ballot scanning [00:08:19] devices are not connected to the network during voting, [00:08:22] i.e., they only switch to online mode after the polling station closes [00:08:26] and the report on election results is printed. At the same time, [00:08:29] they add that in the main counting [00:08:32] center in Sarajevo, activities to determine election [00:08:35] results continued, including the processing of votes of voters outside Bosnia and [00:08:39] Herzegovina, mobile teams, and other categories of voters. [00:08:47] And just over 10 days are left until the elections in neighboring Serbia, and [00:08:50] the political struggle has spilled over into Republika Srpska. Students from [00:08:54] Serbia were banned from holding a rally in Banja Luka, while Milorad Dodik [00:08:58] openly supports Aleksandar Vučić and his election list. [00:09:02] How the campaign from Serbia is breaking over [00:09:05] the Drina. [00:09:07] After the interrupted tour of the Republika Srpska entity, students from Serbia [00:09:11] were banned from holding a rally in Banja Luka, with the explanation that their [00:09:15] safety cannot be guaranteed. They reacted on [00:09:18] social networks. All requested data was submitted, the location was not [00:09:21] suitable, we changed it, a document is missing, we [00:09:25] submitted it, and again we hit a wall, because the problem is obviously not [00:09:29] in the location, in the documentation, in [00:09:32] the procedure, the problem is unsuitability. The only answer we [00:09:36] received is that no one can guarantee our safety. From [00:09:39] our own people, we don't need protection, especially not [00:09:42] yours, while some students from Republika Srpska distance themselves from their colleagues from Serbia, [00:09:46] the Banja Luka association Students with Students gave them support. [00:09:50] The decision of the Ministry of Interior was also condemned by the House of Human Rights Banja Luka. It is particularly [00:09:54] problematic and dangerous practice that the restriction of the right to public [00:09:57] assembly is based on possible negative reactions of the local [00:10:01] population or other groups. Public authorities have [00:10:04] a clear positive obligation to protect peaceful participants from opponents [00:10:07] of the gathering. At the same time, citizens of Serbia in the diaspora face [00:10:11] problems in exercising their voting rights, while in [00:10:14] Republika Srpska the number of polling stations for voting in the elections in [00:10:17] Serbia has increased from 19 to 28. Some [00:10:21] interlocutors connect this with the close relations between Milorad Dodik and [00:10:24] Aleksandar. the abolition of, for example, a polling station in [00:10:27] Herceg Novi, and the increase in the number of polling stations in Republika [00:10:31] Srpska practically and another thing that is [00:10:35] indicative, students when they campaigned in [00:10:39] Republika Srpska did not fare well, the authentic [00:10:42] right had its rally in Bratunac, no one reacted to [00:10:45] that, that says something, at play, of course, we have [00:10:49] special and parallel ties, but these are not parallel ties between Serbia and [00:10:53] Republika Srpska, these are primarily... parallel [00:10:55] ties of the regime in Serbia led by [00:10:59] Aleksandar Vučić and the regime in Republika Srpska led [00:11:03] by Milorad Dodik. Vučić and Dodik confirmed [00:11:06] their cooperation with a new meeting. Dodik openly called for support for [00:11:10] Vučić and his list. Neither he nor I are presidents [00:11:14] or anything now, but as you can see, [00:11:17] we are still meeting and making [00:11:21] plans. We will meet for many years to come. [00:11:25] "You will soon be the President of the Government of Serbia, I will [00:11:28] help in any way I can, I wish you every success in the upcoming [00:11:31] elections, Serbia will only be safe and stable with the victory [00:11:35] of your people. The support was not limited to public messages. [00:11:39] Perduv claims that residents of Republika Srpska with dual citizenship [00:11:42] receive invitations to polling stations for voting. Aleksandar Vučić and that [00:11:46] regime really care about the votes, about this [00:11:49] pool of votes they have from people who live and have [00:11:53] dual citizenship, on one side. [00:11:56] On the other side, mm, the regime [00:11:59] rejoices at the regime, like rejoices at like, mm, Milorad [00:12:02] Dodik knows very well that if the regime in [00:12:05] Serbia were to fall, it would significantly affect [00:12:09] the political situation primarily in Republika Srpska, and then [00:12:12] of course certainly in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The ban on the student rally [00:12:15] and Dodik's open support for Vučić show that the election campaign from [00:12:19] Serbia is strongly spilling over the Drina, while students face [00:12:23] obstacles in trying to present their views. The political leadership of Republika [00:12:26] Srpska clearly aligns itself with the current government in [00:12:30] Serbia. Mirna Aždralović, [00:12:32] N1. [00:12:35] A delegation of the European Parliament will monitor the upcoming parliamentary elections [00:12:38] in Serbia, although the invitation was received after the deadline. That is [00:12:42] a message in itself for the MEPs. [00:12:45] sebi. [00:12:48] Not at five to twelve, but rather at five past twelve. [00:12:51] Serbia sent an invitation to the European Parliament to send an observation [00:12:55] mission for the upcoming snap parliamentary elections. The deadline for [00:12:59] that expired on the eighth, the invitation from the cabinet of the acting president arrived [00:13:02] on October 10th, after the MEPs said they were [00:13:06] ready to wait for it until the 12th. Is this [00:13:10] just an academic delay? This is a message in itself, [00:13:13] because if an invitation is sent in this way, [00:13:16] it's not very good, but all in all, [00:13:20] the invitation has arrived, and a mission will also come, an observation mission [00:13:24] of the European Parliament to Serbia. The observation [00:13:28] mission of the European Parliament to Serbia last arrived in December [00:13:31] 2023. To supervise those snap [00:13:35] parliamentary elections as well. After those [00:13:38] elections, there was a kind of continuous [00:13:41] long-term interest of the European Parliament in everything that [00:13:45] happens in Serbia. After that observation mission, there were [00:13:49] several resolutions on Serbia that referred to [00:13:52] the state of electoral conditions. However, the international [00:13:57] called for by the European Parliament in its resolution of [00:13:59] February 8, 2024, [00:14:03] and on which the opposition placed great hopes, [00:14:06] was never carried out. Hence, the question arises as to what [00:14:10] are the actual limits of the observation mission from Strasbourg? The Council [00:14:14] of Europe and the European Parliament with their observation missions [00:14:18] which are primarily [00:14:21] uh, this, let me say, uh... [00:14:25] political missions, they serve in some way [00:14:28] to further, primarily uh, this [00:14:32] consolidate and raise the visibility of these [00:14:35] expert findings in relation to the ODHR, whose [00:14:39] report gives additional legitimacy. The mission [00:14:42] of the European Parliament, according to the assessment of N1's interlocutor, has [00:14:46] certain advantages, which was seen precisely during the 2023 [00:14:49] elections. The resolution was in January or so, or [00:14:53] early February 2024, which is relatively fast compared, for example, to [00:14:57] the final ODHR report, which came much later, [00:15:00] so they have some speed, and that is the problem of the Serbian authorities, i.e., [00:15:04] the fact that they can react quickly, I mean, and they can [00:15:08] in their first address have perhaps harsher [00:15:12] assessments than ODHR itself. Vladimir Prebilić, [00:15:15] an MEP from the Greens Group for N1, has already stated [00:15:19] that nothing of what the European Parliament, and even Commissioner Marta Kosa, [00:15:22] requested, which are functioning [00:15:26] regulated voter lists, has been fulfilled. We [00:15:29] are not happy about that, but what is, is. I can only [00:15:33] say that we will carefully and thoroughly [00:15:36] follow everything that is happening in Serbia now, and when [00:15:39] the report comes, that is, the message that [00:15:43] will put everything on the table, then everything [00:15:47] will be reflected there. He emphasizes that Brussels is already monitoring the course [00:15:51] of the pre-election campaign. It is not yet known which MEPs will monitor the elections [00:15:54] in Serbia, but it is certain that there will be [00:15:58] seven of them. Tamara Stojanović, N1, [00:16:01] Belgrade. [00:16:05] Stay with the news, we continue with. [00:16:10] Will dairy farmers block borders? They say that uncontrolled milk imports are suffocating [00:16:14] domestic [00:16:15] farmers. [00:16:21] The special department of the Supreme Court of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina confirmed the indictment [00:16:25] against Marin Nikolić, Elmedin Baloder, Boris Zelić, and [00:16:28] Reuf Kadrić. The indictment refers to the establishment of the Ljubatovići [00:16:31] landfill, and according to its allegations, the Federation's motorways [00:16:35] suffered damages of more than 2.5 million convertible marks. [00:16:39] The accused are charged with using their business and official [00:16:42] positions and acting by mutual agreement to take [00:16:46] actions to change project documentation, establish [00:16:50] a new landfill, and initiate the process of full [00:16:53] land expropriation. The prosecution states that the contractor [00:16:56] was willing to establish a temporary landfill at his own expense, [00:17:00] while the designer previously expressed the opinion that there was no [00:17:03] need for a new landfill. Despite this, the accused, according to the indictment, [00:17:07] neglected the interests of the Federation's motorways to unlawfully [00:17:10] obtain property [00:17:12] gain for Zelić. [00:17:16] Within the case Munjići and others, publicly known as the "Spengavanje" affair, [00:17:20] the prosecutorial decision is expected whether or not an indictment will [00:17:24] be filed. As part of regular activities in Poskok, the Prime Minister [00:17:27] of the Federation, Nermin Nikšić, and the Minister of Internal Affairs of the Federation, [00:17:31] Ramo Isak, were questioned. This is a case in which several suspected persons [00:17:35] are linked to possible criminal acts, [00:17:38] abuse of office, influence peddling, [00:17:41] and [00:17:42] corruption. [00:17:47] Now for the announced story, milk production in Bosnia and Herzegovina is on the [00:17:50] verge of collapse, and at the current pace, we will be left without domestic [00:17:54] production, warn dairy farmers. Uncontrolled milk [00:17:57] imports are suffocating domestic farmers, [00:17:59] they say. [00:18:02] Due to huge surpluses of raw milk in the BH market, buyers are lowering [00:18:05] the purchase price, so dairy farmers cannot cover the costs of their production. [00:18:09] In September, they sent an urgent appeal to the Council of Ministers of BiH to introduce measures [00:18:13] to protect domestic production. The state is left without a basic [00:18:17] resource, which is food production. The purchase price [00:18:20] of raw milk is [00:18:23] the same as it was 15 or 20 [00:18:26] years ago, currently it is reaching a level, meaning [00:18:29] 0.50 KM per liter, those [00:18:32] prices were once before, as I said, 15 [00:18:36] years ago, and... Costs compared to costs 15 [00:18:40] years ago have increased by over 300%. Farmers [00:18:43] see the solution in introducing levies, i.e., special import duties to [00:18:47] protect domestic producers. This would reduce the amount of milk that is [00:18:51] imported. When you have enough of your own production and when you have [00:18:55] surpluses, you can import it under all agreements. [00:18:58] For 100 days, 100 days in a year, but [00:19:02] to solve our problems, but they don't even want that, but [00:19:05] I have a feeling that they are still encouraging people to import, [00:19:09] we know how people [00:19:13] subsidize, in the countries of the region, their own production, [00:19:16] these are far lower prices than ours, we have expensive [00:19:19] production. In the field, farms are closing down chaotically, while many [00:19:23] are reducing the volume of production. This is the situation across the country, so [00:19:26] farmers from both entities have been sending the same message for months. [00:19:30] One farm has already, which was one of the largest farms in [00:19:34] the area of the city of Živinice, been shut down. [00:19:37] while on the other hand a farm that had close to [00:19:40] 150 heads also reduced [00:19:44] its production [00:19:47] due to purchase, due to low [00:19:50] prices and left only as much as [00:19:53] needed for their family, so all these [00:19:57] are information that we can rightly [00:20:01] say does not lead to good outcomes. Up [00:20:04] to now, the state level has not shown understanding for agricultural producers, [00:20:08] they are also appealing to entity governments. It was necessary to use [00:20:12] the opportunities, especially the Federal Ministry [00:20:15] of Agriculture, to focus on [00:20:18] supporting processors, i.e. [00:20:22] dairies, to introduce new, new products to [00:20:26] absorb the quantities of milk that are on our [00:20:30] market. [00:20:31] Dairy farmers warn that the milk [00:20:34] production system is on the verge of collapse. They announce a meeting by the end of the week [00:20:38] to agree on further steps, and they are increasingly close to a decision to block [00:20:42] borders. Azurdelić, N1. [00:20:46] Next, you can expect [00:20:48] this story. [00:20:50] priča. [00:20:54] It is World Rheumatism Day. In Sarajevo alone, estimates are around 2 [00:20:58] affected. The canton finances 340 therapies for [00:21:01] rheumatoid arthritis. Doctors see the future in genetic [00:21:04] therapy. [00:21:09] Donald Trump announced an energy truce. Volodymyr Zelensky [00:21:13] said that Ukraine would respect it, but Russian attacks on [00:21:16] Ukrainian energy infrastructure did not [00:21:18] stop. From Moscow, messages are coming that they do not want a truce [00:21:22] but lasting peace, and the messages of European leaders are getting [00:21:25] sharper. [00:21:28] Trump announces an energy truce, Zelensky immediately [00:21:31] confirms, he will respect it if Putin respects it. But [00:21:35] Putin still shows no signs that any truce has [00:21:39] come into effect. The question is whether Putin read the announcement on Trump's [00:21:43] social [00:21:43] network? [00:21:51] in Harif, causing [00:21:54] further damage to our energy [00:21:57] system, it was clear that [00:22:01] Putin does not read through [00:22:04] those, so for now, [00:22:07] this is Putin's answer to Trump, Russian [00:22:11] attacks, but we are waiting, according to what [00:22:15] the ventriloquist Dmitry Pieskov says, Putin has not yet explicitly confirmed. [00:22:18] nije izrekom pot'. [00:22:50] To the citizens of Kharkiv, Zhytomyr, Kyiv, who are under attack after [00:22:53] Trump's announcement. After this attack, about [00:22:56] a hundred thousand Kyiv residents were left without electricity [00:23:00] and half of the city of Kyiv [00:23:03] was without any water overnight. This was [00:23:07] already after, after this statement by Trump about [00:23:11] the energy [00:23:12] truce. [00:23:16] With Trump, we really don't feel it, I think that the nearest [00:23:20] 48 last hours of energy truce on the Russian side and [00:23:33] so he has always said things very clearly and moreover President Trump himself presented it as [00:23:37] such by saying "I got a truce on both sides" the facts are [00:23:40] there that say that the Russians continued to bomb [00:23:44] energy infrastructure in the last hours, I will have the opportunity to speak to him later, [00:23:47] I think we must collectively..." The agreement [00:23:51] between the United States and Russia on the export [00:23:54] of diesel, we take note of it, for Germany [00:23:58] and for Europe, such a decision is out of the [00:24:01] question. Russia will only negotiate seriously under [00:24:04] pressure, and therefore we stick to our sanctions against Russia, [00:24:08] because after Moscow's ruthless attacks [00:24:11] against the civilian energy supply of Ukraine, [00:24:15] we must even tighten them. We can never [00:24:18] have more illusions about Russian [00:24:22] intentions, with absolute certainty, President Zelensky will confirm [00:24:26] this in a moment, Russia is not [00:24:29] interested in a ceasefire, nor de-escalation, [00:24:32] nor peace, it is interested in [00:24:36] domination. Russian refineries did not burn today, Russia [00:24:40] attacked a series of Ukrainian energy facilities, there is no [00:24:44] doubt, if there is no strong evidence of Putin's turnaround, [00:24:47] European leaders will only agree to increase sanctions against Russia, [00:24:51] Ivan Hrstić, [00:24:52] N1. [00:24:56] European Union foreign ministers today adopted almost 1,600 [00:25:00] new sanctions targeting the Russian military-industrial complex, announced [00:25:03] the High Representative of the European Union, Kaja Kallas, she said that [00:25:07] more than half of that package is related to the ballistic missile production [00:25:10] chain. Kallas had earlier welcomed the announcement of an energy truce [00:25:14] between Russia and Ukraine, but stressed that she would like a truce that [00:25:18] also includes a cessation of human [00:25:27] but ceasefire cannot work only if one party honors [00:25:31] clear understanding that now is not [00:25:34] the time ease pressure on Moscow and that's why [00:25:38] today ministers adopted nearly [00:25:40] 1600 new sanctions listings [00:25:44] targeting Russia's military industrial [00:25:47] complex. this is the single largest. [00:25:50] expansion of our sanctions list since Russia's war [00:25:53] started, Europe has shown a united front [00:25:57] today, more than half target the [00:26:00] production chain for ballistic missiles, we are [00:26:03] making it significantly harder, slower and more [00:26:07] expensive for Russia to produce weapons it uses to [00:26:10] kill Ukrainians. Ministers also approved [00:26:14] 77 listings against those participating [00:26:17] in the sham vote in occupied Ukrainian [00:26:20] territories, and seven listings linked to [00:26:24] cooperation with North [00:26:25] Korea. [00:26:28] Air traffic over Saudi Arabia has collapsed after drone and [00:26:31] missile attacks on King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh. The [00:26:35] Yemeni Houthis claimed responsibility for the strikes. At least 13 people were killed [00:26:39] and more than 300 were injured in two consecutive [00:26:42] attacks on the terminals. The airport was closed for security [00:26:46] checks, while leading global airlines are massively canceling [00:26:49] flights. The international community strongly condemned the attacks on civilian [00:26:53] infrastructure, and the Saudi coalition announced a harsh [00:26:57] response. [00:27:02] weeks are serious, our [00:27:05] response must be equally serious, while [00:27:08] remaining focused on the decades ahead, vision [00:27:12] 23 must continue, [00:27:15] investment must continue, the [00:27:19] development of our energy system and industrial capability [00:27:23] continue, and our commitment to the [00:27:26] prosperity of our people and to [00:27:29] our international partnerships, [00:27:36] In a new violation of the ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, two people were killed and three were [00:27:40] injured in an Israeli drone attack in Rafah, in addition to [00:27:43] the air strike, artillery shelled the Khan Younis area [00:27:47] while naval forces opened fire on the Gaza coast. [00:27:50] At the same time, the American humanitarian organization Gaza Children [00:27:54] Village provoked strong reactions with the announcement that it would use [00:27:57] artificial intelligence and audio recordings to monitor [00:28:00] teachers in classrooms at the base to prevent alleged [00:28:04] hate speech. Human rights associations and partners of this [00:28:07] organization warn that this violates privacy and introduces [00:28:11] dangerous control in an already destroyed educational [00:28:14] system. [00:28:19] The European Union will organize four intergovernmental conferences in the next few [00:28:22] days with countries that are furthest along in the process [00:28:26] of approaching the European Union, said European Commissioner for [00:28:29] Enlargement Marta Kos. Professor of international [00:28:32] relations Vesko Garčević spoke about this in an interview for N1. [00:28:36] Watch the full interview tonight at 8 [00:28:38] p.m. [00:28:41] Now we are sailing downstream, that is, towards that goal. Montenegro, as [00:28:45] you said, closed today, or will close three new [00:28:48] chapters. However, that is not the end, [00:28:51] we must be, if I were speaking on behalf of Montenegro now, very [00:28:55] careful about how to proceed, not only because of the need to show [00:28:58] your political will to carry it through to the end, but also because of open issues. [00:29:02] Bilateral issues at this moment with Croatia, I think [00:29:06] that is one of the biggest challenges for Montenegro, that the government [00:29:10] should seriously approach it to avoid any [00:29:14] unwanted reactions or [00:29:17] statements from certain ministers who come from some pro-Serbian parties and [00:29:21] so on. [00:29:24] Pope Leo XIV will undergo surgery to [00:29:28] remove a nodule on his lung discovered in an early stage [00:29:31] during a regular medical examination. The Vatican announced that the [00:29:35] 71-year-old head of the Catholic Church will be [00:29:38] operated on at Rome's Gemelli Hospital. Despite the planned [00:29:41] procedure, the Pope retains full governing authority in the [00:29:44] Vatican, while it has not yet been officially confirmed whether the operation [00:29:48] will affect his major tour of South America scheduled for [00:29:51] November. This is the first major health challenge for the Pope since [00:29:55] the beginning of his [00:29:56] pontificate. [00:30:02] social I am so sorry because he is an important [00:30:05] religious figure and [00:30:08] but this is a fantastic hospital so I'm sure they will do [00:30:12] their best to get him back to health. I'm [00:30:15] simply sorry anyone who is ill, regardless [00:30:19] of the role they hold, is always a person who deserves [00:30:22] respect and then well, the Pope [00:30:26] is an important figure but I'm simply [00:30:29] sorry [00:30:45] American professors Robert Hall and Michael Woodford are the recipients of [00:30:48] the Nobel Prize in Economics for 2026. [00:30:52] The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences awarded them the recognition in Stockholm [00:30:56] for developing new macroeconomic models that mitigate.
