00:00:00what kind of torture from the regime by Aleksandar Vučić
00:00:03who is obviously afraid that he will lose power and
00:00:07what, through what, first of all, these young people
00:00:10are going through and how they cannot achieve their goals after a year
00:00:13which, in my opinion, are not conditionally
00:00:16political, but normal and
00:00:19humiliating. Not even they seek the building of a new society with new values, they should
00:00:22seek that, we are not seeking that, we are simply not seeking it
00:00:25because we are beaten down, at least those who are here, that is
00:00:29one... thing, the second is that they are not brave enough, and the third thing
00:00:33is perhaps that those who would do it, they have left this country, and
00:00:36they do it in such a way that they simply say, "go away" and
00:00:40they leave and it's healthy, simply
00:00:43there are too few of us to awaken that story and
00:00:47not to mention some destructive
00:00:50motives here, I am just asking people here to
00:00:54demonstrate in such a way
00:00:57that through democratic means...
00:01:00they can achieve their existential goals, I am
00:01:03convinced that this can happen again, we have reached
00:01:06elections, here elections are only in a year,
00:01:10I see from these parties, that's already the main story, who will go
00:01:13where, what, who will win, who will lose, hey people,
00:01:17another year, what will happen in a year, the election campaign started a long time ago and I think
00:01:21this is the earliest it will
00:01:24published by USKOK show that approximately be an election campaign in the history of Bosnia and Herzegovina, it started
00:01:26probably half a year ago, meaning a year...
00:01:30before the elections themselves, I can imagine what will happen in the last two or three months,
00:01:34there will be, in essence, everyone wants to get their hands on that cake, public
00:01:38money, we don't hear any
00:01:41strategies, we will do this, we will do that, well, that's definitely
00:01:45safe money, right, they take money from citizens through VAT,
00:01:48excise taxes, and other responsibilities, so they
00:01:51know that it won't melt away overnight, who
00:01:55thinks for themselves, that's guaranteed, I'm going for that, well, honesty, justice,
00:01:59we talked a lot about that in this show, security we haven't
00:02:03mentioned much, in essence, that
00:02:06is one of the things that people mention when they are
00:02:09asked why they feel bad, why they want to leave,
00:02:13security, uh, at one
00:02:16point the situation was really alarming,
00:02:20people were afraid of new conflicts breaking out, are
00:02:24we safer now than we were
00:02:27a few months ago that actually...
00:02:30something bad won't happen, well, we are
00:02:34safe in some context, I must
00:02:37emphasize one fact here that
00:02:40security in Bosnia and Herzegovina, indeed in the Balkans, will depend on some other
00:02:43things, on which, on those geostrategic realignments,
00:02:47it depends on how this aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine will
00:02:50end, whether that conflict will spread to other
00:02:54European Union countries, according to some
00:02:56signals we have from the United States, indeed..." "I
00:03:00think that something is being prepared there that will not be good in the end
00:03:03and that this relationship,
00:03:06waiting. I started that I'm talking about the West's relationship with the Russian Federation, will be greatly
00:03:09intensified, mhm, another thing, we have this
00:03:12permanent crisis, but the word crisis
00:03:16is ugly, it's more of a genocide than anything
00:03:20else, when it comes to Palestine, a single
00:03:23nation, how that will end, that's the question now, but here
00:03:27How much waste do we import annually and we have a proposal for that peace agreement, so I hope..." "in
00:03:30the end, that all parties will accept it, although in my
00:03:33opinion it's quite late, because 70,000
00:03:36people have already died, of which a large number are children, almost
00:03:4020,000 children, that means that
00:03:43according to some statistics, one
00:03:46classroom died per day, 28 children
00:03:49died per day in Gaza, so I'm talking about
00:03:52that Hamas terrorist attack on Israel, that's
00:03:56really catastrophic and that people, especially in..."
00:04:00and all those organizations dealing with human rights, that
00:04:03delayed, slow
00:04:06administration, especially the European Union administration
00:04:09that was coquetting with this, that, what will happen, how will it happen,
00:04:13but I hope that, given that 157 countries
00:04:16have recognized Palestine, that this process will at least be unblocked, but to
00:04:20a large extent, I think a lot will depend on everything that
00:04:23will happen in the area, at least in the relationship between Ukraine and the Russian
00:04:27Federation, mhm, well, with...
00:04:32that these wars of genocide in Gaza will
00:04:35be resolved and that we will have peace,
00:04:39here's a little optimism for the end, just one sentence, if you'll allow me, I just want to
00:04:43say that people shouldn't be naive, so the Russian Federation, Putin will in
00:04:46every sense of the word use Vučić and Dodik as some
00:04:50figures with whom he strengthens his
00:04:53position in relation to strategic goals, well, exactly that in
00:04:57the context of security, Dodik asked Putin
00:05:01that Russia not support the continuation of Eufor's mandate in Bosnia
00:05:04and Herzegovina, somewhere I didn't see that Russia announced that it would
00:05:08vote against, so that could be a big problem, I've been talking to my colleagues from
00:05:12NATO about that, believe it or not, for sure over 10
00:05:15years, we knew that that moment would come, it was just a question
00:05:19of when, I don't think it's favorable for them, because I am
00:05:23convinced that if they deny the LTE mission, they will in any
00:05:26case, they are obliged by the Dayton Peace Agreement to
00:05:30replace those forces with NATO, what does that mean, that the countries
00:05:34that are already in the Altea units,
00:05:37they are actually countries that are members of the NATO pact and
00:05:41simply it will come. One label will be attached, another
00:05:44will be attached and the same ones will remain,
00:05:48perhaps in a much larger special will happen in that regard,
00:05:51should we be afraid of parades in Serbia,
00:05:55here recently a military parade, Vučić
00:05:59brags that he has the best
00:06:01army in this part of Europe, well, they have nothing to brag about to us, we don't
00:06:05care what they have, in the end, they, he'd
00:06:08better solve his internal problems and internal issues, we were not... we were
00:06:12afraid of them in '92, when they were much
00:06:15more powerful than now, so there's no difference that they weren't afraid, well, I said,
00:06:18there was a lot of pessimism during the show
00:06:21in your words, do we have
00:06:24anything nice for the end for the people who
00:06:28are watching us tonight, there are many of them, well, I hope that despite
00:06:32such a difficult situation which is complicated, perhaps even
00:06:35more complicated every day, that
00:06:38a moment will come when we reach that phase which will
00:06:42be so... negative that something good must come out of it, I am convinced that
00:06:45this will happen in Bosnia and Herzegovina, someday,
00:06:48when someday, I think it will come in the near future,
00:06:52perhaps in a much closer future than many
00:06:55expect, well,
00:06:59thank you, thank you, dear viewers, the broadcast is over,
00:07:02goodbye.

00:09:53The fire is spreading towards Brđani and towards Džepska
00:09:56mountain, meaning in the direction towards the municipality
00:09:58of Hadžije.
00:10:03From tonight's news, we also

00:10:50Forest fires have been raging for days in Bosnia and Herzegovina, a fire near...
00:10:55Jajce affected about 7 hectares of pine forest, extinguishing was
00:10:59difficult due to mines, which is why the helicopter of the armed
00:11:02forces was redirected to extinguish the fire in the Konjic
00:11:05area. In Konjic, a state of natural
00:11:08disaster was declared, and international aid was requested
00:11:11from the air. A large forest fire has been raging for days
00:11:14on inaccessible and steep terrain near the settlements
00:11:18Kanjina, Živašnica, Brđani and Džepi. Under the force of the wind,
00:11:22the fire is spreading in several directions, and during the past night. two barns
00:11:25and one abandoned house in the hamlet of Golubić burned down.
00:11:29Due to the extremely difficult and alarming situation on the ground, a state of natural
00:11:33disaster has been declared. This means the fire is constantly spreading,
00:11:36all our available resources and
00:11:39capacities are on the ground. The fire is spreading towards the village of Brđani
00:11:43and towards Mount Džepska, meaning in the direction of the municipality
00:11:46of Hadžići. Um, last night, the city
00:11:50civil protection headquarters of the city of Konjic convened, a state
00:11:53of natural disaster was declared for the city of Konjic
00:11:57caused by large forest fires and international aid was requested
00:12:00for extinguishing forest fires from the air. Residents are fearfully
00:12:03watching the fire's movement towards their homes and properties, and the fight
00:12:07against the fire element continues without interruption. Well, the forest
00:12:11is burning. So it's burning, we have
00:12:15a weekend house up there, and my son went up there.
00:12:19There are people who have livestock. So they have
00:12:23sheep and they. it's all up there now,
00:12:26so it came out onto the hill,
00:12:29now the grass is dry,
00:12:33everything will burn, here it wasn't too critical like down in the lower
00:12:36settlement, but there was really that big fire, the firefighters
00:12:40fought for 24 hours, for sure a few days, so
00:12:43it was much more critical there than here, but again we defended this
00:12:47settlement here too, fire trucks pass every day, and smoke
00:12:51has been visible for three or four days going in that direction up there for...
00:12:55the hill up there is a mountain, they were
00:12:57on guard, on guard on the clearing up there, because
00:13:00from there the forest is all and they were just
00:13:04waiting for the flame, nothing else, the road is inaccessible,
00:13:07the road was built there for the power line when the power line
00:13:11was working, there were two or three households, now
00:13:14there's no one there, it's deserted and now it's all burning
00:13:18on the hillside, I don't know how to explain it to you, it's impossible, you can't
00:13:22walk there, let alone cars, and... In the early
00:13:25morning hours, firefighters from Konjic, with the help of colleagues from Hadžići
00:13:28and Tarčin, as well as residents and hunters, are waging a superhuman battle against
00:13:32the raging fire. From the air, air tractors and
00:13:36helicopters are also helping them. We have firefighters from the Canton of Sarajevo, from
00:13:39Hadžići, from Tarčin, they help us, they help us
00:13:42with ground forces and extinguishing the fire from
00:13:45the ground and we have directed all our resources and capacities to
00:13:49prevent the spread of the fire towards
00:13:53Brđani and Džepsko.
00:13:55The toughest battles with the fire are fought during the night when the flames threaten property
00:13:59and homes, which is why the firefighting teams are still in full readiness,
00:14:03deployed along the endangered settlements to be ready to meet
00:14:06every new surge of fire. Nataša Kerezović,

00:14:14In neighboring Croatia, the main topic is the case of illegal waste
00:14:17dumps, and the safety of water is being questioned.
00:14:21The Institute of Public Health of Lika-Senj County
00:14:24announced that the water from the public water supply in the affected areas
00:14:28of cities and municipalities is safe for drinking, but that it is urgently collecting
00:14:31data on private wells, cisterns, local
00:14:35water supplies that are not part of the public water supply system, all
00:14:39residents of the mentioned areas who fall into that category
00:14:42are asked to urgently contact
00:14:44the institute.
00:14:47Following new findings about the penetration of PFAS compounds into groundwater
00:14:50beneath the Gospić landfill, with the aim of preventive protection... of the health
00:14:53of residents, the institute is urgently
00:14:57collecting data on individual local
00:15:00water supply. We ask all residents of the mentioned areas who
00:15:03own private wells, cisterns, or are supplied by
00:15:07local water supplies that are not part of the public water supply system,
00:15:10to urgently contact the institute. Water in the public water supply system in
00:15:14the entire area of these cities and municipalities has been fully checked and
00:15:18is safe for drinking. It is important to emphasize that current data
00:15:21from analyses that are regularly conducted within the state and source
00:15:25monitoring do not indicate any impact of leachate from
00:15:29the Gospić landfill on the public water
00:15:31supply system.
00:15:35Citizens of Gospić are very concerned and disappointed by the statements
00:15:38of Croatian Prime Minister Andrej Plenković. Let's recall, Plenković stated that the drinking
00:15:42water is safe, that it is regularly controlled in that area, and
00:15:46he accused the opposition
00:15:48of media hysteria. Such an attitude towards the citizens
00:15:51of Gospić is, to put it mildly,
00:15:56as third-class citizens, but as completely insignificant,
00:16:00I would even say, erased. If we
00:16:03establish, uh, these elements,
00:16:06PFAS or heavy metals
00:16:09in water for human consumption, then we are in
00:16:12big trouble.
00:16:1437,000 tons of hazardous waste found in
00:16:18Gospić, a question that could open Pandora's box regarding
00:16:21the same issue in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The subject of investigation
00:16:25by Croatian authorities is a company that was mentioned 12 years ago
00:16:29in connection with the delivery of waste to
00:16:32Derventa. The outcomes are not known, but now questions
00:16:35like what kind of waste do we take and what are the controls and how much
00:16:39is the health of citizens endangered are increasingly echoing in
00:16:42the public.
00:16:45Illegal waste delivery and disposal in Gospić began in
00:16:482021, according to the suspicions of local investigative bodies,
00:16:51the criminal group was organized by Varaždin entrepreneur Josip
00:16:54Šincek. Although the waste was presented as plastic material intended
00:16:58for recycling, the results of investigations and findings
00:17:0137. Tons of mixed technogenic waste were found in the
00:17:05investigated area, including residues from the processing of electrical and
00:17:09electronic equipment, plastics, construction and mineral materials, and
00:17:12parts of medical waste. Although it was not determined that the entire quantity
00:17:16was contaminated, representative samples show harmful
00:17:19properties. I must mention that it is known that neither the fund nor the ministry
00:17:23were legally responsible for such remediation, we promptly
00:17:26amended the waste management plan in the seventh month of last
00:17:30year, where the fund was given responsibility, funds were secured, there were
00:17:33investigative processes, when we got the opportunity to start
00:17:36remediation. In November of last year, a decision on remediation was made.
00:17:40The ecological affair, however, crosses the borders of Croatia and reaches Bosnia and
00:17:43Herzegovina, and in 2014. The company Tipos Resurs, led by
00:17:47the Xincag spouses, delivered about 100 tons of waste to a company in Derventa,
00:17:51which was classified as mixed, non-hazardous. However,
00:17:55the environmental inspection of Republika Srpska found medical waste in it, which is prohibited
00:17:59by regulations. Due to this, a certain amount was returned to the Croatian company,
00:18:02and the authorities there at the time explicitly claimed that there was no danger to
00:18:06people or the environment. With the statement that about
00:18:0940 tons were returned to Croatia, where that amount ended up and what happened to the remaining 60
00:18:13tons is unknown. The case from Derventa became even
00:18:16more serious due to the fact that the controversial shipment was not the only one,
00:18:20nor are the results of the investigation known. Waste management
00:18:23is again in the public spotlight. The only waste that is legally imported
00:18:27into our country is actually processed
00:18:30waste converted into fuel, that's what's
00:18:33imported for the needs of two cement factories in this, in Bosnia
00:18:37and Herzegovina, that's RDF, as far as I know,
00:18:40some 60,000 tons have been imported into Bosnia and
00:18:43Herzegovina, illegal waste is certainly imported, but these flows are
00:18:47almost impossible to track, according to Lemeš. Such cases
00:18:50certainly exist in Bosnia and Herzegovina, given the porous
00:18:54borders and given the lack of capacity of our
00:18:57institutions to carry out control, especially
00:19:01laboratory control.
00:19:05how are controls carried out, we asked the Indirect Taxation Authority of Bosnia and
00:19:08Herzegovina, but despite extensive documentation on cross-border
00:19:12waste traffic and responsibilities in accordance with this issue, we did not receive
00:19:16concrete answers. In the meantime, the number of ecological
00:19:19hotspots in Bosnia and Herzegovina is growing, and the first map was published by UNDP. Through
00:19:23a review of over a hundred potentially contaminated locations in Bosnia and
00:19:26Herzegovina, 48 priority locations were selected
00:19:30for sampling. Based on over 700 analyses of soil,
00:19:34water, and sediment samples, the results showed significant
00:19:37ecological risks at 34 locations, so primarily we have
00:19:41a problem that has been going on for decades with the tar
00:19:45pit in Modriča, this is a type of hazardous
00:19:48waste that has been stored there and which has already
00:19:52created, so to speak, these problems which today
00:19:55are not at all known how big these problems are created for the local
00:19:59population, we note that houses were built there, it developed, settlements
00:20:03expanded, that hazardous waste
00:20:07remained there, a similar situation is with
00:20:10Piralen in the Incel business zone in Banja Luka. Today
00:20:13we have the opportunity to see that a residential area has been built
00:20:16there, which is, well, another
00:20:20problem, but it is evident that after several decades, that
00:20:23problem, that area has not been remediated and that problem has not been resolved. And as long as
00:20:27the state does not have a clear plan on how to deal with this challenge, potential
00:20:31dangers to the health of citizens are growing
00:20:35every day. At the same time, waste trade is becoming an attractive activity
00:20:39for criminal structures which, in the opinion of those who are informed, could not operate
00:20:42without a political connection. Tatjana Drljić,

00:20:48At 12 plantations in Drežnica near Mostar, 1679
00:20:521679
00:20:54cannabis plants were found. Two people with initials B.E. and
00:20:58K.S. are connected to this, the Federal
00:21:01Police Administration announced. Members of the FUP conducted an operation
00:21:04in the Drežnica area under the supervision of the Herzegovina-Neretva
00:21:08Canton Prosecutor's Office, code-named "Veja", which is the
00:21:11result of several months of planned complex operational
00:21:15activities by the administration during which information was gathered about
00:21:18the existence of several locations where cannabis plantations are located.
00:21:22The operational action has been concluded, while investigative activities continue under the supervision
00:21:26of the competent prosecutor's office in cases related
00:21:29to the suspects, it was
00:21:31announced.
00:21:3411 vehicles with British license plates were temporarily
00:21:37seized in an operation by the Border Police of Bosnia and
00:21:40Herzegovina in the Foča area. A 58-year-old
00:21:44man, a citizen of Bosnia and Herzegovina and Serbia, was arrested,
00:21:47suspected of smuggling and giving
00:21:51and other forms of benefits. After his arrest at
00:21:54the Krstac border crossing, by order of the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina, the suspect, his vehicle,
00:21:58and family home were searched, as well as a car salvage yard in the Foča
00:22:01area. 11 vehicles and eight British
00:22:05license plates were found, which, according to the Border Police, belonged to
00:22:08smuggled vehicles. A report will be submitted to the Prosecutor's Office of Bosnia and
00:22:12Herzegovina against the
00:22:14suspect.

00:22:35Nova Željezara Zenica is officially in bankruptcy. The Municipal Court in
00:22:39Zenica opened bankruptcy proceedings, and Jasmin
00:22:42Hadžirašidović was appointed as the bankruptcy administrator.
00:22:46Creditors have 30 days from the publication of the decision in the official
00:22:50gazette of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina to report their claims. The company's
00:22:54management states that they do not see bankruptcy as the closure of the ironworks, but
00:22:57as an opportunity for reorganization and financial
00:23:00recovery. They state that workers' rights will be respected
00:23:04in accordance with the agreement with the union and the law.
00:23:08Ahmed Hamzić, co-owner and general director of Nova Željezara,
00:23:11stated that they are not talking about the end of a story, but about
00:23:15the beginning of a process that should ensure a healthier,
00:23:18stronger, and long-term sustainable company. The management's plan is the transformation
00:23:22of Nova Željezara into an industrial-logistics park
00:23:25with new jobs and development based on modern technologies
00:23:28and green energy. The examination and reporting hearing in
00:23:32the bankruptcy proceedings is scheduled for December
00:23:358.
00:23:38The Embassy of the United States of America in Bosnia and Herzegovina welcomed the
00:23:41progress of the Central Election Commission of BiH in preparations for the
00:23:45general elections to be held on October 4. It was a pleasure
00:23:49to hear from CIK that preparations for the elections are proceeding
00:23:53as planned, stated the US Embassy's post on
00:23:56platform X. They particularly highlighted the introduction of new electoral
00:24:00technologies, noting that their implementation contributes to strengthening the electoral
00:24:03process. The implementation of new electoral technologies carried out by
00:24:07CIK strengthens the institution of elections for voters in Bosnia and Herzegovina,
00:24:11the US Embassy stated.

00:24:15Young people in Bosnia and Herzegovina face serious
00:24:18challenges in the areas of employment, housing, and
00:24:21healthcare, which is why it is necessary to create public
00:24:25policies based on research and the real needs of young people,
00:24:29it was stated in Sarajevo at the presentation of the key messages
00:24:32of the platform's campaign M1 Rights for
00:24:35Youth. There is a lot of talk about young people, but few
00:24:38approach this topic studiously, researching with
00:24:42concrete research with concrete data
00:24:46on what young people actually need and few actually create
00:24:50concrete public policies that exclusively concern young people,
00:24:53M1, has found its place here to offer
00:24:57its knowledge so that we can, which we can offer to decision-makers,
00:25:01so that they can take everything that we do, i.e., all the recommendations that
00:25:04we create, for young people, for their better position in Bosnia
00:25:08and Herzegovina, so that they can take all of that. they could somehow implement
00:25:12in reality through their
00:25:15mandates,
00:25:17we believe it's time for political... mm public programs
00:25:21public policies to pay attention to education that
00:25:25it deserves. We want to open a public dialogue on what
00:25:28education in Bosnia and Herzegovina looks like today, what it should
00:25:32look like today to offer what are the specific solutions that can
00:25:36be done at different levels
00:25:38of government.
00:25:42We at M1 are precisely striving to give young people
00:25:45space to learn, to socialize, to
00:25:49advocate. to talk to decision-makers and finally to
00:25:52create policies that actually concern them, that's
00:25:55why we call on young people not to be observers of political
00:25:59processes, inform yourselves, get involved, ask... and
00:26:02demand accountability, because your vote is not important only on election
00:26:06day.
00:26:09Due to the refusal to join the new digitalization process, numerous
00:26:12instructors and owners of driving schools from Tuzla Canton protested
00:26:16in front of the relevant ministry. As many as 300 candidates are currently waiting
00:26:20to take the driving test because their schools
00:26:23have not entered the new system. A new protest is announced for
00:26:26tomorrow.
00:26:29Driving instructors and driving school owners reiterated that they are against
00:26:33digitalization for taking driving tests, but as far as they are concerned,
00:26:36that decision has no legal basis, they do not want the Ministry of Education and
00:26:40Science of Tuzla Canton to put them under its complete
00:26:43control. After all, I am a private company, I have controls of all inspections,
00:26:47I have controls of the ministry, I have everything, now I should additionally
00:26:51do double and digitalization and plus
00:26:54what we would say "on foot", as we have done so far, meaning we do double work, for
00:26:57me to do that, I must have at least one more employed alternative
00:27:01worker. Doctors reject accusations that they are committing irregularities with
00:27:04the number of classes, working hours, number of candidates, emphasizing that
00:27:08the ministry has insight into their work,
00:27:11the ministry that says that abuse
00:27:14is happening, that in various ways
00:27:18help is provided, they are actually undermining what they
00:27:22are doing, because they conduct examinations, the instructor does not
00:27:25conduct examinations, the instructor finishes training the candidate and then sends him to the exam and has
00:27:29nothing to do with the examination, he is examined by a commission,
00:27:32the commission is made up of people who are in the ministry, is it perhaps a crime for
00:27:35this period how people entered the software, that
00:27:39certificates for 20 hours are issued through
00:27:42the software, so now we ask, from the mandatory
00:27:4528, is it through the rulebook, so we ask who here
00:27:48is stealing hours, who is actually not working as the regulation
00:27:52dictates. The ministry insists that the maintenance of classes and
00:27:56other segments when it comes to
00:27:59taking driving tests be controlled through the information system. I must have information that the
00:28:03classes were held, in what extent, who held
00:28:06the classes and so on, because in our supervision
00:28:09we found that the record keeping
00:28:12of classes in the previous records was not
00:28:15regular, that dates are being corrected, that
00:28:19times are being corrected when classes were held and
00:28:22so on. One of the problems that is older than the software is the price
00:28:26of training and taking the driving test. We had a meeting where
00:28:30the representatives of driving schools explicitly asked us
00:28:34to protect us, meaning to determine a protective price and that
00:28:37price lists be made public so that we would have transparent
00:28:41loyal competition, there is free price formation, but
00:28:45it cannot be drastic that someone shows that the entire
00:28:48system including various fees that
00:28:52need to be paid is 670, and that candidates are
00:28:55charged 1,500 or 1,300.
00:28:58In the meantime, about 700 candidates since June 1st have entered the
