[00:00:00] no, I cannot explain, I need
[00:00:04] the name, that dam was not needed, it
[00:00:07] shouldn't have been
[00:00:09] here,
[00:00:11] we could have used that water
[00:00:14] without
[00:00:16] a dam, as it is still used today, here, now all
[00:00:20] those municipalities have the same water
[00:00:24] here, well, I know
[00:00:27] many who worked on... on that project
[00:00:31] up there, who claim
[00:00:35] that if they had done those investigations,
[00:00:38] that dam would never have been in that
[00:00:41] place,
[00:00:43] because they did some part of the job and
[00:00:46] what do I know, they drilled all sorts of boreholes
[00:00:49] and and this, and they
[00:00:53] stumbled upon some caves. I
[00:00:56] also worked on the drill when I started working up there.
[00:01:00] And this, I also drew the attention of my
[00:01:03] bosses to the fact that when I
[00:01:06] drill for some anchors, my drill bit goes down
[00:01:10] 3-4 meters, meaning I hit some cave, I hit something,
[00:01:14] as long as there's nothing to drill the Svračkovo dam
[00:01:17] and the Sačkovo accumulation are being built
[00:01:20] on a limestone terrain prone to crises. The dam will be
[00:01:24] 68 meters high. The dam is
[00:01:27] located in a gorge 7 km upstream
[00:01:30] from Arilje, meaning 7 km upstream in
[00:01:33] the gorge. That gorge leads
[00:01:36] into a basin where the town of Arilje is located.
[00:01:40] Now there are those who are opportunistic, who claim
[00:01:43] that if the dam breaks, a 70m dam
[00:01:47] if it broke,
[00:01:51] there would be no Požega, no Arilje, no
[00:01:54] Lučani.
[00:01:57] That's it. Just if you climb up to... the cliffs above
[00:02:01] the transparent river, and you pass the hills of places that
[00:02:04] are renewed by air and water,
[00:02:07] you will see nature that many have not
[00:02:11] recognized. One of the most beautiful places in Serbia, a river
[00:02:15] that awakens some emotions, thoughts in everyone. It is enough
[00:02:19] just to sit by it, in silence, no music
[00:02:22] is needed, because here music is created by birds,
[00:02:25] otters, fish that swim in this
[00:02:27] river,
[00:02:30] "We shouldn't be selfish and keep to ourselves, but
[00:02:33] leave it for some new generations, so they can sit
[00:02:37] by that river, learn something, hear themselves, their thoughts in this
[00:02:41] noise that is getting louder around us, and
[00:02:44] I think that for for
[00:02:46] raspberries, everything has
[00:02:50] an impact, that clean water, everything
[00:02:53] has, that's it here now.
[00:02:56] And besides that raspberry, the neighbor is involved in it. And
[00:03:00] growing cabbage in that field below, he watered it
[00:03:03] with with with Rzav water, pure
[00:03:07] extra quality, extra quality. People from Morava
[00:03:11] also had it, and they also
[00:03:13] watered it, it wasn't good, meaning
[00:03:17] for me, clean water, clean
[00:03:20] nature, that's it. That's not a postcard
[00:03:24] with greetings and good wishes, nor
[00:03:27] is it a path of wide roads crammed with huge buildings
[00:03:31] with glittering advertisements. This is
[00:03:34] that luxury that every thoughtful
[00:03:37] person who knows what the essence actually is, craves. A picture
[00:03:40] of the life of those people who do not allow the crazy
[00:03:43] world to transform and destroy
[00:03:46] meaning. To put it anywhere, people
[00:03:50] no longer look for those places to come and have
[00:03:53] coffee, to go further, but they want to come, leave
[00:03:56] their car, and continue on some path, some... that is
[00:04:00] half-overgrown, to reach some place, discover something
[00:04:04] new, have their peace and quiet, and so on. That's what people are looking for, it's
[00:04:07] no longer about building a good local cafe to
[00:04:11] drink coffee or some viewpoint with a great
[00:04:14] view, but rather some
[00:04:17] environment that is untouched, that
[00:04:21] preserves everything that has passed, grown, and so on for centuries.
[00:04:25] A modest activist camp, Rzav
[00:04:28] calls you, enthusiasts. Naturalists,
[00:04:31] Rzav people, and all those who want to preserve everything
[00:04:35] mentioned related to the gifts of Rzav and nature in one
[00:04:39] place, by the river, along the river, on the paths and
[00:04:42] ravines, where large birds with wide wings
[00:04:46] are slowly returning, surveying the territory
[00:04:49] of their ancestors. For us, Rzav
[00:04:52] bit of ham, is, they say that small towns, small nations always have an
[00:04:55] anchor that holds them, something that defines them. For Arilje, I would
[00:04:59] say that we have two sanctuaries: one is the Arilje church of Saint
[00:05:02] Achillius and one is the river Rzav, raspberries,
[00:05:05] cotton, cotton products, actually other cities have those, but they don't have
[00:05:09] such a river and such a church, there aren't many cities and...
[00:05:12] Even, if I can make a comparison, not to be misunderstood as
[00:05:15] some kind of devoutness, Arilje church was indeed created by
[00:05:19] divine providence, but it is still the work of human hands, the work of man. This
[00:05:22] here, this river, that is the work of the Creator, that is God's
[00:05:26] work. Marko has traveled the world, mostly
[00:05:29] mountains, waters and forests, and he knows how
[00:05:32] to recognize them. I just came back from South
[00:05:36] America three weeks ago after a month and I can't say that
[00:05:40] I had a morning here while drinking coffee
[00:05:43] by this river and thinking about all that we have, the conclusion
[00:05:47] is a lot of it. We don't need to go thousands
[00:05:50] of kilometers away, we have such parts very close to the city or wherever
[00:05:54] we live, such nature that is unique and
[00:05:58] we must try to preserve it
[00:06:01] purely because in order
[00:06:04] to make ourselves aware again, those generations that are just
[00:06:08] arriving, does it have a price? It has no
[00:06:11] price, that's why we are all... here, because here, here we all
[00:06:14] come just for socializing, for enjoyment and
[00:06:18] for that future. It's not a matter of price, no, there is no price
[00:06:21] for this. In one place, youth, experience,
[00:06:25] old people in their good years who know
[00:06:28] the paths of the region, drawn for a healthy life,
[00:06:32] even from ancient times and this
[00:06:35] beauty and this beauty
[00:06:37] of mine, well, you didn't tell me, I poured
[00:06:41] water on my boots. Let me see, but I don't see
[00:06:44] any here, maybe they got
[00:06:46] scared. No, I
[00:06:49] don't see any.
[00:06:53] Trout, brown trout. 20 years ago you couldn't
[00:06:56] cross it without stepping on fish. Now it's much poorer,
[00:07:00] trout was the main one, gudgeon, we call it gudgeon, brown barbel,
[00:07:03] chub, it used to have small and large barbel, now
[00:07:07] it doesn't. Crayfish, now some are starting to appear.
[00:07:10] "The path was on that side
[00:07:14] and I always came
[00:07:18] on foot from that side, the path
[00:07:21] to come
[00:07:22] here.
[00:07:28] Those are just memories,
[00:07:32] you understand me, if it's not a memory, then what kind of
[00:07:36] life has a man lived?
[00:07:39] A memory is one thing, and life is
[00:07:42] one thing. There are no two
[00:07:46] lives.
[00:07:49] One memory and one
[00:07:52] life, and it must be
[00:07:55] respected.
[00:07:57] Life must be dedicated to
[00:08:01] children.
[00:08:04] Kristina is at higher education,
[00:08:08] with a group of students in an activist
[00:08:10] camp, I think that...
[00:08:12] "actually now in people that moment is awakening that should exist, where people try
[00:08:16] to connect with their essence, which is
[00:08:20] nature, and return to it. So I think that this is precisely one of those steps
[00:08:24] that need to be taken. And
[00:08:28] now, uh, all of this gives me hope
[00:08:32] and it seems to me that people also have hope.
[00:08:35] It doesn't seem to me, even though in a way that young momentum in
[00:08:39] Serbia has died out, where young people leave, which is undeniable.
[00:08:43] But it still seems to me that all of that, uh, that people
[00:08:46] are working on it in the sense of, uh, no one
[00:08:50] dreams of going to live in the city anymore. Uh, now
[00:08:53] it's quite the opposite. People are returning and looking to
[00:08:57] do something they can do from nature, from such an environment. In
[00:09:01] Serbia, places like Arilje and any places
[00:09:04] that are connected to nature, rich in nature, offer much more
[00:09:07] than a metropolis or
[00:09:11] or. or some, I would say, more urban
[00:09:14] environment. So, I think that everything is going its course and perhaps
[00:09:18] such a strategy doesn't need to exist because everything is already moving
[00:09:21] in the right direction. So, I think
[00:09:25] again, perhaps there is no recipe, but all
[00:09:29] that young people are doing and how they act according to their
[00:09:32] youthful nature, I think all of that truly goes in
[00:09:36] the service of preserving youth in a rural Serbia
[00:09:39] which truly has nature that should be... utilized.
[00:09:43] And just by the river, there were two experienced cooks,
[00:09:46] and everyone could not only refresh themselves but also
[00:09:50] replenish their energy thanks to the water from
[00:09:53] Rzav, the one that gave taste and strength
[00:09:56] to everyone and everything. Beans with
[00:10:00] dried ribs, a little bit of bacon, a little
[00:10:05] and our product from here. And this, what is this? This is dry
[00:10:08] cold, what I would call a roux, a cold roux. Let's... let
[00:10:12] those who don't know hear now.
[00:10:14] Flour, a little bit of red
[00:10:18] paprika, a little bit of hot if there is any, but we won't because there are children, we don't put
[00:10:22] hot. Water for... mix
[00:10:26] it and when the beans are done add
[00:10:30] that's it. The man says here you breathe with full lungs. Here, I inhaled for the first time.
[00:10:33] Yes, yes, but you breathe with full lungs, there's no
[00:10:37] pollution, no factories, no
[00:10:40] some
[00:10:42] polluting the air. How can I explain it to you? It's poorly
[00:10:46] sown, there's no fertilizer or those artificial ones. And who knows better
[00:10:50] than me here, I live down in the city.
[00:10:53] So, there you go. "People today talk, you should
[00:10:57] eat this, you should eat that, all sorts of things. A person spent a lot
[00:11:01] of time searching for what they should eat today.
[00:11:04] Since you are this chef and you cook everywhere, you told
[00:11:07] me, uh, what is good for a healthy life, actually?
[00:11:11] What should you eat? What should you? You eat beans,
[00:11:15] cabbage, boiled wedding cabbage, a little
[00:11:18] prosciutto, a little bacon, garlic, onion
[00:11:21] and cheese, and how far
[00:11:24] To a hundred, but by the Rzav, by the Rzav.
[00:11:28] That's right. I'm from here by birth, I'm here, I used to
[00:11:31] jump into the water from these rocks, I used to swim.
[00:11:35] Otherwise, this river, I think there's none more beautiful in
[00:11:38] Serbia. A well-thought-out story,
[00:11:41] lectures, hiking, getting to know nature with
[00:11:44] an experienced guide, educational film screenings,
[00:11:47] a night by the fire with people longing
[00:11:51] for a breath by the ancient river. We can
[00:11:54] make... that Latin saying a little different,
[00:11:57] I came, I saw, I stayed. Yes, that would definitely be
[00:12:01] a better option. I observed all these people who
[00:12:04] wake up, the river that shapes and calls,
[00:12:07] landscapes that live even when the snow falls,
[00:12:11] far from urban areas, a
[00:12:14] building that, after completion, could change
[00:12:17] everything, just like many similar ones that submerged
[00:12:21] and changed both nature and history and people.
[00:12:25] "In principle, we are engaged in the destruction of anything in
[00:12:28] nature for money. That is, I will give you the information
[00:12:32] that, for example, in European Union countries, which have about 450 million
[00:12:36] inhabitants, not a single large dam for water supply has been built in the last 10
[00:12:39] years, because they understood something that we
[00:12:43] obviously didn't, that Rzav is not only in Europe, in Serbia, but in
[00:12:47] Europe, one of the wildest rivers, not only the cleanest, but also
[00:12:51] the wildest. Is a dam, conceived long ago,
[00:12:54] started again,
[00:12:57] upgraded, a trigger for a sincere touch
[00:13:00] of people with the bountiful world that was there
[00:13:04] beside all of us for so long? That
[00:13:07] is a scar, a scar on the face of nature,
[00:13:11] uh, which I don't know how we can remove.
[00:13:14] I mean, we can stop its spread, but
[00:13:17] complete removal, probably never.
[00:13:21] I'm really sorry, because we have such nature, such a...
[00:13:25] river, which, I repeat, doesn't exist, this doesn't exist in Serbia
[00:13:28] so much, one or two rivers in our entire country. Someone is
[00:13:32] ready for some gain, something that we cannot clearly
[00:13:36] define, but we can clearly sense. Someone is ready to destroy it, to
[00:13:39] turn an entire region into a region
[00:13:43] that has nothing else to be recognized by, because if
[00:13:46] the Rzav suffers, then agriculture will also suffer
[00:13:50] and generally and raspberries, the microclimate will change.
[00:13:53] Hmm, the question is what will
[00:13:56] happen with that stability. What, of course, worries us as
[00:14:00] Arilje residents, that needs to be known and that needs to be clearly
[00:14:04] explained to people, it's a whole ecosystem. We're not just talking about
[00:14:07] the river here, that's the thing. People constantly think about the river as
[00:14:10] just a river, and then when we go into that river, what all lives
[00:14:14] in that river, that's one thing, and then what all is around it, starting
[00:14:18] from birds, those insects, it's a whole
[00:14:21] ecosystem that we don't see. So, a disaster
[00:14:25] will happen if that is done. I mean, it's not, it's
[00:14:28] not at all about drinking water, whether people will be able
[00:14:32] to swim here in the summer or not, that's the smallest
[00:14:35] problem. It's about the overall what will happen,
[00:14:39] no one, neither scientists nor those who make
[00:14:43] those projects can predict the consequences of those
[00:14:46] moves, unfortunately. This will end with our children
[00:14:50] having to win. If we don't manage to win
[00:14:53] in the name of our... children, then our
[00:14:56] children will win in the name of us who didn't
[00:14:59] fight. There's no other way. We
[00:15:03] must live with nature because we are part
[00:15:06] of nature. Big capital
[00:15:09] should look for other paths, other
[00:15:12] solutions. Why would anyone leave Rzav,
[00:15:16] the heritage of centuries of a small town and fortresses that were
[00:15:20] guardians of life? In the 10th century, the place was called
[00:15:23] Moravica, but every... if it was significantly older,
[00:15:26] it is recorded that refugees from Larisa, Greece
[00:15:30] brought the relics of Saint Achilles, after whom the city
[00:15:33] was named Arilje. In 1219,
[00:15:37] during the Nemanjić era, the Arilje monastery was the center of the Morava
[00:15:41] Eparchy. Rzav has, despite everything
[00:15:44] that came with various storms, remained
[00:15:47] clean. I have experience, Rzav truly
[00:15:51] heals.
[00:15:53] Rzav heals, in it we have two spas,
[00:15:57] Visočka Roška. I
[00:16:00] had, I injured my leg and
[00:16:02] this, Rzav healed me.
[00:16:06] And thank you.
[00:16:33] It's always the most important thing, the light
[00:16:35] of day.
[00:17:01] In the new issue of Radar, Miodrag Jovanović talks about elections going in the direction of a referendum
[00:17:05] atmosphere, electoral list cards.
[00:17:07] They're cheating, what sprung up from the ashes, palaces on the ashes, Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina in a
[00:17:11] diplomatic clinch, Mladić, a risky electoral platform, where does the
[00:17:15] money from the budget disappear to, asphalt more important than
[00:17:16] pensioners.
[00:17:21] The procedure for protecting the economy in Serbia takes an average of
[00:17:25] about nine years.
[00:17:28] The material aspect, even after the declaration,
[00:17:32] represents a significant
[00:17:35] item.
[00:17:38] According to the Protected Planet website, we are
[00:17:41] in 39th place out of 40 European
[00:17:44] countries.
[00:17:48] It is extremely important to protect due to the diversity of flora and
[00:17:51] fauna located within those protected areas.
[00:18:27] Nemanja Karović, Stara
[00:18:30] Jovanović, Stefan Simić and Goran
[00:18:33] Ježić will talk about the impressions of the week with Olja.
[00:18:36] Don't miss your impression. Sunday at 8:30 PM
[00:18:40] only on
[00:18:40] N1.
[00:18:45] In the weekend edition of Nova newspaper, read: Minorities as electoral kingmakers,
[00:18:49] some pursue mandates to help Vučić, two parties aim for
[00:18:52] the student list. If SNS wins, we will dig for lithium, says
[00:18:56] Professor Danica Popović in an interview for Nova. The General Staff
[00:18:59] is an indicator of whether we have a state and laws, says conservator
[00:19:02] Estela Radonjić Živkov. Get your copy of Nova
[00:19:06] newspaper.
[00:30:19] Good afternoon, N1 info begins, I am Tanja Veselinović, these are the most important
[00:30:23] news.
[00:30:27] The Republic Election Commission today announced the electoral list
[00:30:31] European Serbia. Marinika Tepić, Zdravko Ponoš, for
[00:30:34] the upcoming extraordinary parliamentary elections. The pre-election campaign is
[00:30:38] accelerating.
[00:30:42] At 60 locations in Belgrade, not Bitef,
[00:30:45] a self-organized festival of the artistic community, under
[00:30:48] the slogan Bitef is where we
[00:30:50] gather.
[00:30:53] In the biggest attack on Moscow since the beginning of the war, two people
[00:30:57] died, victims in the Russian strike.
