[00:00:24] Good morning, I'm Sanja Sovrović, my name is Milan Šarić, a new day begins,
[00:00:28] N1 television's morning program.
[00:00:30] Sunday was not peaceful when it comes to news, and on the first day
[00:00:34] of the first November week, we continue with the topics that
[00:00:38] marked the day. Two years after the tragedy in
[00:00:42] Novi Sad, remembering the victims, a repeated request, an unextinguished hope
[00:00:45] that someone will be held accountable for the 16 who died under
[00:00:49] the massive concrete structure at the Novi Sad
[00:00:52] railway station.
[00:01:52] and the evidence of the responsibility of the top authorities for the collapse
[00:01:55] of the canopy, it was talked about in last night's
[00:01:58] Impression of the Week. And first of all. Above all, the arrest of
[00:02:01] the head of the criminal police department, Marko Kričak,
[00:02:04] and the head of the crime suppression service, Boško Sekulović,
[00:02:07] who were detained for up to
[00:02:11] 48 hours. The arrest
[00:02:14] is not due to violence against students and citizens by
[00:02:17] the unit that Kričak previously led, but
[00:02:21] due to abuse of official position and abuse of
[00:02:24] the accused in the murder case in Senjak. Radar journalist
[00:02:28] Vuk Vijić, who published this information, was not surprised
[00:02:32] by Kričak's arrest, but by the fact that the prosecutor's office,
[00:02:36] which was most prominent in its obedience to
[00:02:38] the regime, reacted, as if prosecutor
[00:02:41] Stefanović somehow wanted to
[00:02:44] show the incoming authorities that he doesn't want to cross
[00:02:48] the outgoing ones, not entering that part
[00:02:52] of Kričak's career
[00:02:54] that actually started all in the security
[00:02:58] service from a car repair shop. So the progressives
[00:03:01] brought him seven
[00:03:05] years of that career, seven years of suspicion of beating
[00:03:09] people. Although the head of the Higher Public
[00:03:12] Prosecutor's Office, Nenad Stefanović, claims that there is no connection
[00:03:16] between the arrest and the election results,
[00:03:19] the question remains whether this is an internal conflict
[00:03:22] within the security structures,
[00:03:26] a distancing from the previous regime, or a first step
[00:03:30] towards achieving justice. We will discuss this in this morning's topic
[00:03:34] with former UKP inspector Milan
[00:03:37] Dumanović. This morning we are also checking the situation
[00:03:40] in front of Alta Bank branches, given
[00:03:44] the announcement of payment of insured client deposits from
[00:03:48] the beginning of this week. We will follow the events in the Fifth
[00:03:52] Ninth Belgrade High School, in the press review we will talk about all
[00:03:55] the topics that were covered in daily newspapers. Our guest is
[00:03:59] the president of the Independent Journalists' Association of Serbia, Željko
[00:04:02] Bodrožić. Why did one of the 17
[00:04:05] newly discovered galaxies get its name after Serbian
[00:04:09] students? What is the symbolism of its shine that will
[00:04:12] last for another three billion years? Astrophysicist Darko
[00:04:16] Donevski will explain this to us, who will
[00:04:19] join us for the new day from Trieste, but before
[00:04:22] that, let's go to our
[00:04:25] neighbors. This morning in Sarajevo
[00:04:28] Minela Jašaropa. In Zagreb Hanan
[00:04:31] Nanić, let's go to Minela first, good
[00:04:35] morning to our colleagues first, Minela, good morning
[00:04:39] neighbors, Minela, what do you highlight from today's
[00:04:42] show announcement? Well, we will start this morning with
[00:04:45] a political overview, both in Bosnia and Herzegovina, domestic
[00:04:49] and foreign developments, let's start with Bosnia and Herzegovina,
[00:04:52] political parties are entering a new phase of negotiations on government formation and
[00:04:56] harmonization of future priorities, as they say,
[00:05:00] which are European integration, reform processes and relations with international
[00:05:03] partners, these will be the key topics of the new political
[00:05:07] cycle, although new coalition realignments are announced, it remains an open
[00:05:11] question how much... will it actually bring changes in the functioning
[00:05:14] of the government and the progress of Bosnia and Herzegovina on the European
[00:05:17] path.
[00:05:20] While the countries of the region are fighting for every new airline, Sarajevo
[00:05:24] entered the winter flight schedule without one line of the leading
[00:05:27] low-cost company from Sarajevo International Airport, while
[00:05:31] Croatia and North Macedonia forgive up to
[00:05:34] 90% of taxes to airline giants through growth and subsidy models, Bosnia and
[00:05:38] Herzegovina has reintroduced a fixed state levy of three marks per passenger.
[00:05:43] Expert people who should supervise our entire
[00:05:47] aviation sector are currently civil servants, in civil
[00:05:50] service you cannot offer the best experts working conditions,
[00:05:54] salaries that will attract them, which is why
[00:05:57] it is a big challenge in the sense that our
[00:06:00] Directorate for Civil Aviation is currently
[00:06:03] devastated in terms of
[00:06:04] personnel,
[00:06:07] how with this new government in Bosnia and Herzegovina going forward,
[00:06:11] how with the changes in Serbia, will the changes move
[00:06:14] from the neighborhood to us, we will analyze this morning with Miloš Davidović
[00:06:18] from the Faculty of Law, University of Sarajevo, and Jasmin Hasić,
[00:06:21] Professor of International Relations and International Law at the University of
[00:06:25] Sarajevo. The analysis of the elections in America will be provided through personal experience
[00:06:28] of living in America, but also political, analytical,
[00:06:31] Reuf Bairović, and for the end of the new day
[00:06:35] through a very illustrative presentation, we will also bring details about
[00:06:38] menopause and osteoporosis. Doctor Mirsad Muftijić, specialist
[00:06:42] in physiatry, will talk about what is happening with estrogen
[00:06:46] and how women, especially, can
[00:06:49] protect their hormones, but also bones that somehow
[00:06:53] suffer the most during this break. So much
[00:06:56] in Sarajevo's new day, until 11 o'clock we guide our viewers
[00:07:00] through these and other topics. Diverse topics in
[00:07:03] Sarajevo, Hanan is in Zagreb this morning.
[00:07:06] Hanan, what is most important
[00:07:08] in Croatia? Well, we are following several topics,
[00:07:11] certainly what we decided to open this
[00:07:15] opening with is the passing of a music legend, Mišo Kovač passed away
[00:07:18] during the weekend, one of the biggest music phenomena
[00:07:22] of this area whose songs marked
[00:07:25] generations, I will talk about his life and legacy very soon
[00:07:29] in the studio with journalist Zvonko
[00:07:32] Alać. And the disputes surrounding the Constitutional Court
[00:07:35] continue, in Rijeka questions of fascism,
[00:07:39] the fan scene and political responsibility are reopened. I will
[00:07:42] talk about Croatian current affairs and newspaper headlines
[00:07:46] with Tihana Tomičić, a colleague from Novi List,
[00:07:49] in Gospić, the lithium processing plant could be left
[00:07:53] without a building permit. The investor threatens a million-dollar
[00:07:56] lawsuit, who will bear responsibility for potential
[00:08:00] damages. We will deal with this issue, after the victory
[00:08:04] of the student list in Serbia, the formation of the government and the takeover
[00:08:08] of institutions follows. With the question of what Aleksandar
[00:08:11] Vučić will do, what about the alleged destruction of documentation
[00:08:15] and what will be the policy of the new government, including the one towards
[00:08:19] its neighbors, are some of the questions for the candidate of the student list,
[00:08:22] Mr. Oliver Tošković, who will be a guest on New Day today
[00:08:26] and finally America chooses a new composition of Congress tomorrow,
[00:08:30] we bring stories, our Nina Kljenak from the USA and announce
[00:08:33] the big all-night election special of N1 television
[00:08:37] which you can follow tomorrow from 8 PM from Zagreb, Belgrade
[00:08:41] and Sarajevo. Well, colleagues, in a way
[00:08:44] an opening announcement for today and tomorrow, thank you
[00:08:48] colleagues Minela and Hanan reported from
[00:08:52] Sarajevo and Zagreb, a new day begins, now let's go
[00:08:55] to the weather forecast to hear what kind of weather
[00:08:58] awaits us,
[00:09:07] this morning with us in the weather center is our meteorologist Bojan
[00:09:11] Lipovščak. Bojan, what kind of weather awaits us
[00:09:15] today and the first week of November,
[00:09:18] today is a continuation of yesterday's
[00:09:21] weather, that means cloudy weather with
[00:09:24] occasional rain, and what kind of weather awaits us,
[00:09:28] what will the weather, how will the weather develop, well,
[00:09:32] very simply, we are under
[00:09:35] the influence of a cyclone that has settled over
[00:09:39] the Mediterranean and this cyclone brings...
[00:09:42] large amounts of unstable air to our regions from the
[00:09:45] southeast, it mixes with cold
[00:09:49] air that flows directly over our
[00:09:52] areas from the north from the northeast,
[00:09:56] there is a strong development of
[00:10:00] cloudiness accompanied by rain,
[00:10:04] a large amount of cold
[00:10:06] air has filled our Pannonian plain
[00:10:09] and it flows as cold air
[00:10:13] over the mountains, over the Dinarides and the sea
[00:10:17] strong, locally even
[00:10:20] stormy and gusty
[00:10:23] hurricane. So the State
[00:10:26] Hydrometeorological Institute has issued a yellow
[00:10:29] warning for bora almost along the entire Adriatic
[00:10:33] coast, and especially in the Podvelebitsko
[00:10:36] coast. This cyclone, which is located
[00:10:40] over the Mediterranean, will slowly
[00:10:44] move eastward, with it comes another
[00:10:48] wave of unstable air, but that will mostly
[00:10:51] affect the eastern part of the Balkan
[00:10:54] peninsula. While over us and our regions
[00:10:57] the influence of an anticyclone that is currently
[00:11:01] over Great Britain will gradually strengthen,
[00:11:04] but it will move down to our regions and affect the weather
[00:11:08] with stabilization of the weather, meaning the cessation of precipitation
[00:11:11] and gradually we will have more
[00:11:15] sun, today still
[00:11:19] until the end of the day cloudy weather with
[00:11:21] occasional rain, mostly in mountainous...
[00:11:25] m there may be sleet
[00:11:28] and snow, on the Adriatic a strong
[00:11:32] to stormy bora. The highest daily air
[00:11:35] temperatures will be in Croatia
[00:11:38] from six up to nine in the
[00:11:41] interior, occasionally only up to 11,
[00:11:44] on the Adriatic from 14 up to
[00:11:47] 19 degrees, 14 of course on the northern part
[00:11:51] of the Adriatic. Air temperatures in
[00:11:55] Bosnia and Herzegovina,
[00:11:58] around 8 degrees in the interior, in
[00:12:01] Herzegovina on the Adriatic from 15 to
[00:12:04] 18 degrees, cloudy with
[00:12:07] occasional rain and snow in mountainous
[00:12:11] regions. Further development
[00:12:14] of the weather situation will be under the influence of this cyclone which will move
[00:12:17] away towards the Aegean Sea
[00:12:21] and an anticyclone is approaching
[00:12:23] us. which will affect the weather already from Wednesday
[00:12:27] and Thursday in our regions, so
[00:12:30] the week ahead we will have two weather patterns,
[00:12:34] the first part of the week, cloudy with
[00:12:37] rain, sleet in the mountains, after that
[00:12:41] weather stabilization and sunny
[00:12:43] weather until the end of the week with larger temperature
[00:12:47] amplitudes. And more about the weather
[00:12:51] you can follow on our Info channels.
[00:13:09] Good morning from the Sarajevo studio, you are watching the new day, N1 television's
[00:13:12] morning program. The weather information is not cheerful, but don't
[00:13:16] let the weather make you gloomy or bright, so one thing until mid-week,
[00:13:19] another thing after, nicer later, but try to make
[00:13:23] someone's day today. this Monday, smile
[00:13:27] so that we don't depend on the weather, at least when we depend on all
[00:13:31] these topics that burden Bosnian-Herzegovinian
[00:13:33] daily life, but it's no better in the region or the world, these days
[00:13:37] elections everywhere, we follow them, analyze them with our
[00:13:41] guests in the studio, but also outside of it, so stay with us
[00:13:44] until 11 o'clock, we will start another working week together, inform you
[00:13:48] about everything you need to know, we bring other topics,
[00:13:52] those that you may choose less often, but those that can be useful, health
[00:13:56] topics, stay with us, these are the stories we bring
[00:13:58] you.
[00:14:02] Two years of protests, blocking faculties, walking from city to city
[00:14:05] and finally an election victory, the student list won an absolute majority,
[00:14:09] Aleksandar Vučić admitted defeat after 14 years in power,
[00:14:12] it still echoes through Serbia and the region, what really
[00:14:16] happened, what follows and why should it interest us in Bosnia and
[00:14:19] Herzegovina, we will ask the man who followed the elections first-hand, Miloš
[00:14:23] Davidović, assistant professor at the Faculty of Law, University of
[00:14:26] Sarajevo.
[00:14:29] Candidate status, negotiating chapters, European Commission, Council
[00:14:33] of Europe, European Council. If these terms get mixed up in your head as soon as you hear them,
[00:14:36] you are not alone. That's why the Federal Ministry of Education and Science published
[00:14:40] a handbook with the honest title EU for
[00:14:43] Dummies. It is intended for students, and everyone who
[00:14:47] wants to understand the Union without technical jargon. The author is Jasmin Hasić, Professor
[00:14:50] of International Relations and International Law at the University of Sarajevo.
[00:14:58] On November 3rd, Americans will decide who will control
[00:15:01] Congress and how much room Donald Trump will have to implement his policies
[00:15:05] in the last two years of his term. Although no president is being elected, the midterm elections
[00:15:09] are a kind of evaluation of his work. Republicans have a slim majority in both chambers
[00:15:12] and polls show that they could lose it. Trump is therefore campaigning
[00:15:16] as if his political future is at stake. We talk about the American elections,
[00:15:20] political divisions and the atmosphere in society with Reuf. Ić, who
[00:15:23] knows America from the perspective of a former resident and political
[00:15:27] analyst.
[00:15:28] Every third woman over 50
[00:15:32] years of age will suffer a fracture due to osteoporosis.
[00:15:35] It doesn't hurt, there are no warnings until it breaks. Osteoporosis
[00:15:39] is therefore called the silent thief of bones,
[00:15:42] and menopause is the moment when this thief most often comes to
[00:15:46] the door. What is the connection between hormones and bones, who is most at risk
[00:15:49] and what can we do in time, will be explained by Doctor Mirsad Muftijić, specialist
[00:15:53] in physiatry.
[00:15:58] And these are just some of the topics we bring you in the new day. Follow us on our
[00:16:02] web portal and social networks. We are here in the New Day until
[00:16:05] 11.
[00:16:16] And at this moment, let's go to the Bihamk auto moto club to check what
[00:16:20] conditions we can expect in addition to weather conditions
[00:16:23] and traffic. Albina Sorguč, good
[00:16:26] morning. Good morning Minela, to you and your
[00:16:29] viewers. Traffic frequency is increased in
[00:16:32] city centers, in most of Bosnia and
[00:16:35] Herzegovina, traffic is... "wet and slippery
[00:16:39] roads, so we advise drivers to be extra
[00:16:43] careful. We also warn about reduced visibility due to
[00:16:47] fog in valleys, along river flows in
[00:16:50] higher areas. We emphasize that as of yesterday, the legal obligation
[00:16:53] to possess winter equipment on roads in Bosnia
[00:16:57] and Herzegovina is in force. On highway A1 at
[00:17:00] several locations, works are being carried out,
[00:17:04] due to which traffic is regulated by temporary
[00:17:07] signaling. We highlight the sections Bijača
[00:17:10] Počitelj in both directions: Sarajevo, West, Lepenica, Kakanj,
[00:17:14] Lašva and Zenica, South, Zenica, North. One
[00:17:18] lane is used due to ongoing works on main
[00:17:21] roads, Izačić, Bihać, Široki brijeg,
[00:17:24] Posušje, Konjic, Jablanica, as well as at
[00:17:27] the entrance to Kiseljak from the direction of Sarajevo. At
[00:17:30] border crossings, delays for passenger vehicles are not
[00:17:34] longer than 30 minutes. That's all for this report
[00:17:38] from Bihamk, of course we wish everyone who is traveling a happy journey, and to you and your
[00:17:41] colleagues a pleasant rest of the day. Thank you very much Albina
[00:17:45] for a pleasant rest of your working day and the whole week to you and your
[00:17:48] colleagues, less work, interventions on the road, and if you
[00:17:52] have the opportunity, stay with New Day.
[00:18:05] And with me in the new day. until the end of the show, or until
[00:18:09] 11 o'clock, Jazur Delić, who will prepare for us moment by moment
[00:18:12] news that is coming in, arriving, and that marked the past weekend.
[00:18:16] Azure, good morning. Good morning, Minela, warm greetings to our dear
[00:18:19] viewers.
[00:18:22] The Ugljevik thermal power plant is back in operation thanks to coal coming
[00:18:26] from the Bukova Kosa mine near Prijedor, which temporarily
[00:18:29] reduced the need for electricity imports. However,
[00:18:32] energy economic experts warn that this is not a long-term
[00:18:36] solution and that Bosnia and Herzegovina could face new electricity
[00:18:39] price increases as early as next year. Estimates speak of
[00:18:43] a price increase of up to 30%, and the consequences could
[00:18:46] also be felt through the rise in prices of other products and services.
[00:18:50] Economic expert Damir Miljević believes that the problems in
[00:18:53] the energy sector are a consequence of long-term postponement
[00:18:56] of necessary decisions. According to his estimate, the increase in electricity
[00:19:00] prices could be significantly higher than what citizens
[00:19:02] expect.
[00:19:06] After the protest. In front of the city hall building three days ago, citizens of Goražde,
[00:19:10] who demand urgent rehabilitation of the illegal landfill in Šišeti,
[00:19:13] will block the entrance to the landfill today, they announced
[00:19:17] that they will not allow waste disposal at that
[00:19:20] location in the coming days either. From the protest, an open call
[00:19:23] was sent to the cantonal inspection to immediately go to the field and officially seal
[00:19:27] the landfill. Mayor Ernest Imamović warned that he cannot
[00:19:30] solve the problem alone and raised the question
[00:19:33] of an alternative, emphasizing that the question arises where to dispose of
[00:19:37] city waste.
[00:19:41] The Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina will today at 12 o'clock pronounce the first-instance verdict
[00:19:45] in the case against the accused Dragomir Obradović, Momčilo
[00:19:48] Pajić, Aleksa Gordić, Miladin Gašević, Branislav
[00:19:52] Kezunović, Željko Gašević, Jadranko Šuka and
[00:19:55] Nikola Koprivica, who are charged with committing the criminal offense
[00:19:59] of crimes against humanity. The accused
[00:20:01] are charged that during the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina from mid-May until
[00:20:05] at least the end of September 199.
[00:20:07] on the territory of the municipality of Sokolac within a broad
[00:20:11] and systematic attack aimed at the Bosniak civilian
[00:20:14] population, participated in the persecution through
[00:20:17] forced displacement of the population and
[00:20:19] murders.
[00:20:25] Informative talks and arrests continue in Serbia. Yesterday,
[00:20:29] the head of the criminal police department, Marko Kričak,
[00:20:33] and the head of the crime suppression service, Boško Sekulović,
[00:20:36] were arrested. Radar weekly journalist Vuk Cvijić says that
[00:20:39] the two of them filed a criminal complaint for the murder case in restaurant
[00:20:43] 27 in Senjak and are now called to
[00:20:46] account. As if...
[00:20:50] prosecutor Stefanović in a way
[00:20:53] wanted to show himself to the incoming authorities, so as not
[00:20:56] to alienate these outgoing ones, not delving into
[00:21:00] that part of Kričak's
[00:21:02] career that actually began in the security
[00:21:06] service from a car service, that's how the
[00:21:09] progressives brought him seven
[00:21:13] years of that career, seven years of suspicion of beating
[00:21:17] people.
[00:21:22] Nine people died in a plane crash in a residential area in
[00:21:26] Florida. Witnesses state that the plane crash was so
[00:21:29] powerful that it sounded like a missile explosion.
[00:21:47] The Ukrainian Air Force announced that a hacker had compromised
[00:21:50] a public air raid alert application, which briefly
[00:21:53] showed a nuclear threat and the threat of street fighting in Kyiv and
[00:21:57] other areas, after which the erroneous displays
[00:22:00] disappeared. In the meantime, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky confirmed
[00:22:04] that he had discussed attacks on Russian
[00:22:07] refineries with US President Donald
[00:22:09] Trump. He offered to temporarily stop them if
[00:22:13] America supplied him with Patriot
[00:22:15] missiles.
[00:22:21] A concert by the mixed choir Seljo dedicated to traditional Romani,
[00:22:25] Jewish and Bosnian-Herzegovinian music was held
[00:22:29] at the Jewish Community of Sarajevo. Under the baton of Tijana Vignjević,
[00:22:32] the concert was an opportunity to present different musical expressions and highlight
[00:22:36] the richness of the cultural tradition of these communities. The goal
[00:22:40] of the concert is actually to draw attention
[00:22:42] to the constitutional rights of national minorities in
[00:22:46] Bosnia and Herzegovina, in this case the Romani and Jewish national
[00:22:50] minorities, the Seljo choir is known for
[00:22:54] the fact that we don't just sing, we often
[00:22:57] sing just for the sake of the songs, of course, but we always
[00:23:00] try to make our concerts have an activist message,
[00:23:04] so in this case, we are drawing attention to
[00:23:07] our neighbors, national
[00:23:10] minorities.
[00:23:12] Ladino music of Sephardic Jews who came to
[00:23:16] Bosnia and Herzegovina during the 15th and 16th centuries, had a great
[00:23:20] influence on our Sevdalinka in Bosnia and Herzegovina, so
[00:23:23] you can feel it in that music, it's also our
[00:23:26] Sevdalinka, only in a different language, of course Romani music, well
[00:23:30] we all in some way in some situation, at some
[00:23:33] moment know how to sing those songs. For the members of the Seljo choir,
[00:23:36] such a repertoire represents another way to show the breadth
[00:23:40] of their musical activity. I sing in the Seljo choir
[00:23:43] for over 15 years, so
[00:23:47] a proud member of the Seljo choir, we... interpret and
[00:23:51] sing, therefore, different types of, you know,
[00:23:54] music, primarily traditional Bosnian music,
[00:23:57] modern music and spiritual, therefore, spiritual music, and this
[00:24:01] evening is m I could
[00:24:04] freely say a combination, from Sevdalinka to Romani Sephardic
[00:24:08] music, the concert
[00:24:09] brought
[00:24:42] and New
[00:24:43] Day.
[00:24:54] This can be only 3D
[00:24:57] brilliant.

[00:26:44] we continue with the new day, starting from Europe.
[00:26:47] We've seen these days how much young people can
[00:26:50] change when they know what they want and how the
[00:26:54] system should function, so let's check how much we really know
[00:26:58] about the European Union, that goal we've been hearing about in Bosnia and Herzegovina for two
[00:27:01] decades, candidate status, negotiating
[00:27:05] chapters, the European Commission, the Council of Europe, the European
[00:27:08] Council, if these terms get mixed up in your head
[00:27:12] as soon as you hear them, then you're not alone, which is why the Federal Ministry
[00:27:15] of Education and Science has published a manual with a very honest title,
[00:27:19] which says Europe for Dummies, or the European Union
[00:27:23] for Dummies, intended for pupils, students, everyone who wants
[00:27:26] to understand the Union without technical jargon. The author is Jasmin Hasić, with whom we will talk
[00:27:30] next, a professor of international relations. International law, good morning and welcome to
[00:27:34] a new day. Good morning, thank you for the invitation. The title
[00:27:37] EU for Dummies, a bit provocative, was that
[00:27:41] the intention? Well, honestly, yes, because the English
[00:27:44] equivalent of this title, EU for Dummies, is even worse, EU
[00:27:48] for the ignorant, for idiots or divided
[00:27:51] or so on, however we can translate the word "dummies", but here
[00:27:55] the intention is not to offend anyone, rather the intention is to
[00:27:58] encourage people to read the book, you said it all
[00:28:01] in the introduction. We have been talking about the European
[00:28:05] Union for many years, even more, 23, now 23.
[00:28:08] Some Thessaloniki, and then those official processes started
[00:28:11] and here, the European Union only remained in
[00:28:15] the domain of politicians, the academic community, you will find very few
[00:28:18] people on the street who understand which chapter Montenegro
[00:28:22] recently closed, that cluster
[00:28:25] they had, then something about fish, then everything in some domain of
[00:28:29] secret messages and... people have no idea what awaits us,
[00:28:32] how big that process is, how many steps,
[00:28:36] how many 99 steps from candidate status to that
[00:28:40] negotiation to those approvals, avia, so
[00:28:43] the terminology is really charming,
[00:28:46] broad, extensive
[00:28:49] and in life, I also, I'm listening to the news right now while
[00:28:53] I was coming to the studio, replacing winter tires, keeping
[00:28:56] your winter tires, of course someone from the profession will tell you they're not tires, they're pneumatic,
[00:29:00] and I don't know why. I went something and so on, and then some engineer will tell you
[00:29:04] it's not a screwdriver and it's screwed in, it's not screwed in, so,
[00:29:08] I understand that there is some technical terminology that is
[00:29:12] standardized in certain professions and we
[00:29:15] ordinary people don't use it correctly, but if we want ordinary
[00:29:18] people to understand us, that's exactly right, exactly, this book has that
[00:29:21] intention to translate that very
[00:29:24] technical volume of terminology used by experts,
[00:29:28] in this case, some people who work in the European Union or the delegation
[00:29:31] or the Ministry of Foreign Affairs into an understandable
[00:29:35] language. So this is more about pedagogy than about knowledge itself. So who is this for,
[00:29:39] is this primarily for students, or maybe for some
[00:29:42] politicians, because they very often use those
[00:29:46] interesting, evil terms for which it seems to me
[00:29:49] that even they, if asked to translate them in a way that a person
[00:29:53] who should understand that communication would not
[00:29:56] know. Hmm, let's put it diplomatically, I'm returning
[00:30:00] from a trip yesterday, entering... into
[00:30:03] Germany and there they are now separating us on this connecting
[00:30:06] flight and saying Europe here, the rest here
[00:30:10] and now the gentleman looks at me, I'm tall, white, etc. and he
[00:30:13] suggests Europe here, mhm, now I know that
[00:30:17] he means the European Union, but let me engage in this aggressive
[00:30:20] pedagogy, to get to that line to show them that they actually
[00:30:24] didn't do it well, and then I go into that Europe line, it's logical that
[00:30:28] that line is for the European Union and for holders of European
[00:30:31] Union passports. While I was there at that check, the gentleman says,
[00:30:35] "But you are not a European Union country." "I know, I know," I said, "your colleague said
[00:30:39] 'Europe here', he meant the European Union." "I don't know what he
[00:30:42] meant, he said 'Europe'." "Here now, I am Europe, I am
[00:30:46] Europe, Bosnia and Herzegovina is also Europe." He says, "How long have you been," he says, "in
[00:30:49] Europe?" How long did you stay in Europe? I said, "All of my life," my whole
[00:30:53] life. So, literally, that's the point,
[00:30:56] so, aggressive pedagogy, but in this way.
