00:00:19Dear viewers, good day, you are watching the news, these are the events
00:00:22of the day.
00:00:27Healthcare workers in Canton Sarajevo dissatisfied went out to... protests, Minister
00:00:30Hasanović rejects accusations, there is no discrimination, we increased
00:00:34salaries for everyone, he
00:00:35said.
00:00:39Protests across France, thousands of demonstrators on the streets, more
00:00:43than 70,000 police officers deployed, clashes with the
00:00:46police occurred.
00:00:49Due to bomb threats, planes were forcibly grounded in France,
00:00:52Bulgaria, and
00:00:53Belgium.
00:00:58The Union of Health Workers of Canton Sarajevo held
00:01:02a one-hour protest this morning in front of the Canton Sarajevo government
00:01:06building, demanding urgent amendments to the collective agreement, as well
00:01:09as the initiation of negotiations for a new agreement that would define
00:01:12salary increases for all healthcare employees. Namely,
00:01:16on November 2nd, this union was informed that the Union of Doctors of Medicine
00:01:19and Dentistry of Canton Sarajevo was approved an increase in coefficients by
00:01:230.3%, although during negotiations on amendments
00:01:27to the collective agreement, it was pointed out that there were no...
00:01:30financial possibilities for increasing the basic
00:01:32coefficients of job complexity. Minister Hasanović
00:01:36addressed the gathered crowd and rejected the Union's accusations of
00:01:39discrimination against workers. He added that the union's demands
00:01:42must be resolved systematically, but that negotiations are hampered
00:01:46by poor mutual relations among the three different unions
00:01:50in healthcare. He pointed out that the increase in coefficients
00:01:53will be postponed until January 1st, because, as he emphasized, the financial
00:01:57maximum for the current year has already been reached.
00:02:01"the position of the main committee is to go all the way, we are ready for
00:02:04every union
00:02:07Mr. Tayloriko step, to the satisfaction of all employees in healthcare, not just one group
00:02:10of job complexity, today the government should make a decision
00:02:14to give consent to start new negotiations for a new collective agreement,
00:02:17also to support what the minister said, that our
00:02:21collective agreement should include
00:02:23about the quality of what has been negotiated in the sectoral collective agreement, we certainly will not
00:02:26give up, next week there will be a protest march, probably a small..."
00:02:30blockade, of roads, I,
00:02:32through this, call on the citizens of the canton for
00:02:35understanding, but we, as a union, are trying
00:02:39with all our might to work with the relevant ministry to
00:02:43achieve something and to simply make that service
00:02:46better, however, they must give us space in every
00:02:49respect. In the next year, the collective
00:02:53agreement will certainly be expiring, negotiations for a new
00:02:57collective agreement will begin, and all three unions will lead the negotiations. "we absolutely
00:03:00support, we have shown and I will show
00:03:03all healthcare workers and all healthcare
00:03:07workers and but we naturally demand and have always demanded
00:03:10that they show it through satisfaction, they have the highest salary
00:03:14growth among all other categories in Canton
00:03:17Sarajevo, that they show it and in their attitude towards patients and towards
00:03:21everyone else, yes, we will support their demands, but there is no discrimination
00:03:24here, we signed with one sectoral union that
00:03:28exclusively represents. that category, we signed with nurses,
00:03:32with this general union we sign for everyone, as we have done
00:03:36so far, all amendments and all collective agreements and
00:03:39all amendments have been signed with the union of workers
00:03:42employed in healthcare, and I think that they really should be satisfied because we
00:03:46have increased their salaries all this time and we will continue
00:03:48with that.
00:03:53Next Thursday, a meeting will be held in the federal
00:03:57parliament, which could be called preparatory for the constitution. of the post-election
00:04:00new convocation of the House of Representatives, the information about holding that
00:04:04meeting was confirmed by the co-speaker in the current convocation
00:04:07of the House, Mladen Bošković. Asked if the period when the constituent
00:04:11session or eventually a date can be
00:04:14expected, he briefly replied constitutional
00:04:17deadline. According to the rules, the deadline for convening the first session of the new
00:04:20convocation is no later than 20 days from the publication of the election

00:04:44and monitoring reforms on the ground, said the head of the European Union delegation in Bosnia
00:04:47and Herzegovina, Luigi Soreca. Soreca participated in

00:05:01of European integration was discussed. He emphasized that European integration directly affects
00:05:05the daily lives of citizens and that its effects are especially
00:05:09visible at the local level. Therefore, it is important to strengthen
00:05:13the capacities of these authorities, as well as their ties with colleagues across the European
00:05:16Union, said
00:05:18Soreca.

00:06:28does not authorize the completion of a transaction that would result
00:06:32in the sale of Russian ownership and control in NIS. The completion
00:06:35of the transaction would require separate OFAC approval, MOL added.

00:06:45A new wave of strikes and protests organized by all leading trade
00:06:49unions, public and private sector workers, and students, has begun
00:06:52across France. The streets of Paris, Marseille, and other
00:06:56cities are blocked, and clashes with the police have been reported.
00:06:59Citizens are protesting against the rising cost of living, the state of
00:07:02education, and the government's announced austerity measures to reduce
00:07:06planes made emergency disruptions to transport,
00:07:10healthcare, and education. Around 70,000 police officers
00:07:13are on the ground, while unions warn of an economic crisis
00:07:17and government pressure creating a new major political crisis for
00:07:21President Emmanuel
00:07:25Macron.
00:07:29They say everything that many people who are no longer their
00:07:32age also think
00:07:35education from kindergarten to
00:07:38university, that they have a right to respect.
00:07:42to be treated with dignity, that it's not young people who
00:07:46will have to adapt to a system that exploits them, but that we must
00:07:49respect all their diversity, their
00:07:52quality, their commitment, well, afterwards, it
00:07:55feels like these are mostly very superficial announcements, the 3000
00:07:58teachers, that was concrete, but then everything about higher education,
00:08:01there was just a replacement announcement but not
00:08:05how or why and in 2028, knowing that in
00:08:092028 they won't even be in power if everything
00:08:12goes well, and so yes, it's certainly to be taken with a grain of salt because
00:08:16they can announce things but for now there's nothing
00:08:20concrete, so listen, it's been 10 years since Macron, so
00:08:23we don't expect much anymore, so
00:08:26now the working world must mobilize to force this
00:08:29government to finally open its eyes and see all the damage it
00:08:33is doing and perhaps prepare the elections, the elections to
00:08:36say that we need something else, other choices than these ultra
00:08:39liberal choices.
00:08:42A new wave of false bomb threats has once again caused chaos
00:08:46in European air traffic. At least 14 flights in more than eight
00:08:50countries were affected, and some planes were urgently diverted. The most
00:08:54tense situation was on an Airlingus flight from Dublin to Rome, which
00:08:57was diverted to the French military base of Evero, where
00:09:00passengers were safely evacuated, escorted by fighter jets.
00:09:04A flight from Milan to Warsaw was diverted to Vienna, a flight from London to
00:09:08Sofia landed in Plovdiv, while four
00:09:11landings at Prague Airport. Threats were also
00:09:15reported on flights to Brussels and Bucharest. European authorities
00:09:18and the British Minister of Transport confirmed that these were
00:09:21malicious false alarms. HDZ review in
00:09:24all cases confirmed that there were no explosives, the investigation is ongoing.
00:09:42maybe a drone activity or fake bomb hawks right, then you will
00:09:46get unruly passengers on board because they don't
00:09:49understand, so it's actually a general call to the
00:09:52public, be aware that this is happening in the Europe of
00:09:56now and that we will have to get used to it for for the
00:10:00upcoming years, um, so you know, keep
00:10:03calm and do not get
00:10:06angry right away, and for airlines, they have to take
00:10:09this in account with their planning and group.
00:10:18After the heavy defeat of the Republican party in the midterm elections
00:10:21in the US, Donald Trump and Vice President J. D. Vance confirmed that
00:10:25the war in Iran, accompanied by a sharp rise in fuel
00:10:28prices, was the key reason why voters handed control of both
00:10:32houses of Congress to Democrats. The election
00:10:34defeat caused internal conflicts among Republicans.
00:10:38Florida Governor Ron DeSantis compared the results
00:10:42to the political equivalent of a meteor strike, while
00:10:45pressure is mounting in Congress to impeach Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth
00:10:49due to miscalculations regarding the duration of the conflict. Democrats
00:10:53achieved historic victories in traditionally Republican
00:10:56states, so from January they will be able to significantly limit
00:11:00the military and legislative initiatives of the
00:11:02White House.
00:11:05So what I can say to you uh is that we've already
00:11:08begun the work to begin laying out these
00:11:11priority areas and determine how during this
00:11:14transition period we quickly began to address them and
00:11:18have a plan to deliver in January. Um, I was
00:11:22very happy to have a conversation with governor.
00:11:25today and it was very good
00:11:28conversation and his team is going to be
00:11:31available to us to help us uh with an
00:11:34orderly transition and a productive transition so I'm
00:11:38grateful uh for him extending that
00:11:41offer.
00:11:45what last night showed us is that
00:11:48Americans are tired of being told that their needs are
00:11:51unrealistic by politicians who have been bought by the wealthiest people in...
00:11:55country, this country has elected new generation of
00:11:58leadership, a generation with a mandate to lower the cost of
00:12:02living, to build, not bomb, to never betray the
00:12:05working people who entrusted them with power, and hear often that
00:12:08the politics that we're fighting for here in New York City are not
00:12:12possible outside of city limits, and what last night showed us is
00:12:16that working people are the majority, whether we are speaking of
00:12:19Austin, or Astoria, and it is
00:12:23time to put those same people
00:12:33The Institute for Public Health of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina confirmed the first cases
00:12:37of flu this season. Vaccination of citizens is expected in mid-
00:12:40November, and it is free for healthcare workers and other priority
00:12:44groups. The Institute states in a press release that the activity of flu-like
00:12:47illnesses is currently low. Since the beginning of increased monitoring of respiratory
00:12:51infections, 1325 cases
00:12:55with flu-like symptoms have been reported, while the influenza virus was laboratorily
00:12:58confirmed in four samples. Flu usually starts
00:13:02suddenly, and some of the most common symptoms are high fever,
00:13:05headache, muscle pain, fatigue, and cough. Symptoms usually
00:13:09appear about two days after infection, and this period lasts
00:13:13from one to four days. Doctors remind citizens that
00:13:16vaccination is the most effective way to
00:13:19protect themselves. As every year, we will cover
00:13:23the widest possible area that the Health Center can. "And that is in all nine health centers
00:13:26of Canton Sarajevo, that is, all nine municipalities and and
00:13:30certainly somewhere around 70 or more family medicine clinics,
00:13:34mm, therefore our hygienic-epidemiological service already has
00:13:37a plan and schedule, what we are recording as a health center, again I say
00:13:41there is a significant number of upper
00:13:44respiratory tract illnesses, but that is certainly not the flu
00:13:48again I repeat, that is in some decline which suits us
00:13:51for better immunization so that we can achieve better coverage."
00:13:55yes, yes, yes, we have, so here we are ready on our part,
00:13:59but we are waiting, I think about 7,000 doses were announced,
00:14:03this, but here we will get official confirmation in about ten
00:14:06days.
00:14:11Until the end of the news, also check out the weather forecast.
00:14:14Warm greetings, dear viewers, clouds have been covering most of
00:14:18Bosnia since morning, sunny conditions are in Herzegovina, in the southwest of
00:14:22Bosnia, where it has been mostly clear since the morning
00:14:26hours, all this is because the anticyclone is taking care of the weather conditions,
00:14:29keeping cloudy systems away from our regions for now, so
00:14:33in the continuation of this afternoon it will remain sunnier precisely in
00:14:37the Herzegovinian area, in the southwest of Bosnia, but in most
00:14:40of Bosnia it will remain mostly cloudy,
00:14:44the dominant wind is from the north and the northeast mainly
00:14:48blows with weak to moderate intensity, then that of course also creates the picture
00:14:52of temperatures, we expect that from...
00:14:558 to 13 will be the values in the area of
00:14:58the Bosnian part, in Herzegovina the values
00:15:02will mostly go up to a maximum of 19. As for the
00:15:05weekend which is at the door, if I can
00:15:09say so, it will be unstable, there will be precipitation in places, and as things stand now
00:15:13most likely during Sunday in the area of Herzegovina and
00:15:16Krajina, especially the southern part of Herzegovina, then in the new
00:15:20week there will be more and more precipitation,
00:15:23more abundant in places.
00:15:26News is on the portal n1info dot naba, in this
00:15:29news overview, that's all, stay with N1,
00:15:31goodbye.
00:15:54A new day begins, friends of the Bingo Robne
00:15:57Marke show, the price
00:15:58difference.
00:16:11You are watching New Day, the morning program of N1 Television. Americans sent a clear message
00:16:14to President Donald Trump in the midterm elections.
00:16:18The Democratic Party took control of the Senate, according
00:16:21to projections, and the House of Representatives, ending complete
00:16:24Republican control of Washington. Analysts interpret the results as
00:16:28a serious political blow to Donald Trump, especially due
00:16:32to public dissatisfaction with rising living costs, inflation,
00:16:36and the administration's foreign policy. What does the new balance
00:16:39of power mean for Trump's last two years in office,
00:16:42can Congress limit the White House's moves towards Ukraine,
00:16:46Iran, and the Western Balkans? Today's guest is Dr. Jasmin Mujanović,
00:16:50a political scientist with a PhD from York University, specializing in
00:16:54politics and post-authoritarian and
00:16:57post-conflict democratization. Good morning,
00:16:59welcome, or rather, good evening to you, and thank you very much for being
00:17:03with us this morning despite the time difference.
00:17:07Thank you. for the invitation. Before the
00:17:09elections, you predicted that America would probably get a divided
00:17:12government. Now we see that the Democrats
00:17:16won the Senate, according to projections, and
00:17:19the House of Representatives, how much did the results confirm, and perhaps even
00:17:22exceed your expectations?
00:17:25I think they exceeded almost all analysts',
00:17:28their results, I mean, we must be very realistic, if
00:17:32for example, we could expect a positive result for the Democratic
00:17:36party, for example in Texas, because throughout the election
00:17:39campaign, really all polls indicated that
00:17:44would win, although it is still somewhat of a shock,
00:17:48because after all, Texas is an extremely
00:17:51conservative state, however, there were some demographic trends that had been
00:17:54developing for almost 20 years,
00:17:58and ultimately they led to
00:18:01this outcome, but at the same time we have these,
00:18:04one must really say, simply incredible results. for example in Mississippi,
00:18:08in Kansas, in Iowa, in South Carolina, so
00:18:12these are some of the most conservative federal states
00:18:15in the US, and even there, uh,
00:18:18the Democrats achieved very, very serious
00:18:21results, and in a few other states where they didn't
00:18:25ultimately win, such as in Louisiana and Tennessee, they
00:18:29were short by approximately one or two percent to
00:18:32achieve truly, in a political sense, cataclysmic. cataclysmic
00:18:36results, at least as far
00:18:39as the interests of the Republican party are concerned.
00:18:43What, in your opinion, was the decisive reason
00:18:47for this result, did voters vote for Democrats
00:18:50or did they vote more against
00:18:52Trump?
00:18:56You see, I think what we can definitely say is that this is
00:19:00a continuation of similar trends as we saw in
00:19:032024, that is, that first and foremost
00:19:06for voters in the US,
00:19:10it was the economy, uh, in the 2024 elections,
00:19:14that narrative, that, let's say, fixation
00:19:18of voters certainly went against the Democratic
00:19:22party, in this cycle, this
00:19:25is, well, a huge huge plus for that same party,
00:19:29so I think that in this moment, in these
00:19:32global and globally economic circumstances,
00:19:36it's a simple fact... Similar things we saw in some
00:19:39other countries that in this period of about two or three
00:19:43months had elections, so this is some global
00:19:47wave to some extent and I think
00:19:49that probably uh a similar
00:19:53orientation will characterize
00:19:57the next presidential elections in 2028,
00:20:01of course for the Republican party
00:20:04now it will be a great and important task
00:20:08ahead of them to distance themselves from this president and an agenda which at this
00:20:12moment at least seems to have totally collapsed
00:20:15and failed in a political sense for all those possible future
00:20:18candidates who will seek
00:20:22to establish themselves as
00:20:25a Republican alternative, uh
00:20:28a big, big task ahead of them. We saw yesterday
00:20:32on social media, Trump felt the need to announce with a good
00:20:35morning and a reminder that he is still'...
00:20:38the president in the United States,
00:20:41so Trump remained in the
00:20:44White House after the elections, but he lost Congress, how much will his
00:20:47policies actually be hampered in the
00:20:51next two years?
00:20:54Well, you see, I think we have to emphasize that this previous Congress, which was
00:20:58under total Republican control in the Senate and
00:21:01the House of Representatives, is considered one of the
00:21:04least productive Congresses in modern
00:21:07American history, so the smallest
00:21:10number of significant laws were passed during that
00:21:14mandate, and now as for, well,
00:21:18laws that will... let's say
00:21:21be among those laws for President Trump
00:21:25to be the key architect, there's practically nothing of that, I mean,
00:21:28the President did say that he is somewhat
00:21:31ready, uh, to cooperate and negotiate
00:21:35with Democrats, uh, maybe there will be a
00:21:38need, at least as far as some basic
00:21:41budgetary issues are concerned, for some kind of agreement to be reached,
00:21:45but in terms of real political
00:21:48agenda, there will practically
00:21:51be nothing in the next two
00:21:54years, what will dominate politics, at least from the side of
00:21:58Congress, will actually be those various
00:22:02investigations, hearings, uh,
00:22:05reports, and so on, about everything that the
00:22:08Democrats talked about during the campaign, so, their
00:22:12belief that this is a corrupt president, that the people
00:22:15around him are corrupt, and even in the context,
00:22:19uh... of attention to the Western Balkans region,
00:22:22a few weeks ago we had that report published
00:22:25by the Democratic Foreign Policy Council
00:22:29in the House of Representatives, uh, whose
00:22:33key author was Mr. President, uh
00:22:36William Keating, which, you know, concerns
00:22:39alleged affairs, let's call them that, well,
00:22:42we still don't know all the facts, but about
00:22:46those accusations that there were some... let's say
00:22:50political malversations in the context of lifting
00:22:54sanctions for Mr. Dodik,
00:22:56the realization of the Southern Interconnection project, that is,
00:23:00the embedding of the company A AFS into
00:23:04relevant legislation in the Federation entity, so
00:23:08these are things that the Democrats will definitely re-examine
00:23:11in this mandate, similar affairs in some other countries
00:23:15around the world, where it is claimed that Trump's
00:23:18family or some close associates had, I repeat, some of their
00:23:22corrupt agendas, so that will dominate American
00:23:25politics for the next two
00:23:28years. So you and other analysts
00:23:31have been saying in
00:23:33the previous period that the war with Iran, economic
00:23:36pressures, rising prices, were a political burden for the administration,
00:23:40we can conclude that these very topics decided the elections, how much
00:23:44will the Democratic majority actually have room to influence the
00:23:47foreign policy of the United States,
00:23:50that is, bearing in mind that the president
00:23:54still retains key
00:23:55powers,
00:23:58of course, however, Congress still has significant authority in that
00:24:02regard, I believe that we will already in the next
00:24:06few days, perhaps even uh, see
00:24:09a reaction specifically regarding
00:24:12the mandate and leadership
00:24:15of Mr. who is the US Secretary
00:24:18of Defense, we already have some reports, even from
00:24:22uh from some
00:24:25Republicans who are terribly outraged at Mr.
00:24:28Gax because they accuse him of, you
00:24:31know, uh, poor leadership of the military campaign
00:24:35against Iran in that war in the Persian Gulf, that it
00:24:39actually cost the president and the Republican party their
00:24:42dominance in Congress, so it is quite
00:24:46possible that Pete Hegseth
00:24:50will not be Secretary of Defense
00:24:53for long, and I think, probably if
00:24:56it comes to that, that he will be removed
00:25:00from office either by Congress through
00:25:03that so-called impeachment process or that
00:25:07uh, effectively, President Trump will fire
00:25:10him, whatever happens, I think it will actually
00:25:14be just the first of
00:25:16a series of departures from this administration that are
00:25:20yet to come, because rarely anyone will want to
00:25:23stay in an administration that will be under a kind of
00:25:27siege, a political siege for these next
00:25:31two years, and at least at this moment, I think, let's say, that
00:25:34mainstream political logic, although
00:25:38I think it's too early to think and speculate like this, uh,
00:25:42I mean, the results of the Democratic Party were so
00:25:45dominant, historically significant last night,
00:25:49or rather, the night before last. Last night, no, not last night, I apologize,
00:25:52uh, that probably
00:25:55it is already expected at this moment that in
00:25:582028 some
00:26:01Democrat will win the race for the White House,
00:26:04to some extent, it might not even matter who it will be, that's how it is, that's
00:26:08how their performance was last night, that was their
00:26:12success, what were for you, what were perhaps
00:26:16personally the most interesting or most unexpected moments
00:26:19of these midterm elections in the United States of America? You were here
00:26:23listening with great attention
00:26:26and watching the speech of the newly elected senator in
00:26:30Michigan, El Sayed, and
00:26:33the fact that someone of his origin and
00:26:36background managed to enter the
00:26:39Senate, how surprising is that to you
00:26:43and how do you interpret it, I assume you heard his speech, maybe you
00:26:47could relate to it to some extent, since you are also
00:26:50uh someone of foreign origin
00:26:53in America, maybe you could identify with his story in some moments,
00:26:57well, you see, I mean, it must be
00:27:01emphasized. Mr. El Sayed is a native-born American, although
00:27:04of course he has origins from the African Arab
00:27:08world. On the one hand, it must also be said that
00:27:11he was quite, I won't say, a controversial candidate
00:27:15uh because I mean, that was some criticism and
00:27:19I think it was mostly malicious criticism from some
00:27:22Republicans, uh that quite
00:27:25this, I say again, really malicious accusations
00:27:29that the man is a terrorist, extremist, Islamist, whatever
00:27:32it is, I mean, that's totally absurd, but on the other
00:27:36hand, it must be said that he was quite a bad candidate, that
00:27:40it is now actually possible that another Democrat in that position would
00:27:43achieve a slightly more significant
00:27:45result, but then it must still be said that this
00:27:49is still a historic event mm the first person
00:27:53of Arab and Muslim origin who will be in the American
00:27:55Senate, so in the context of a
00:27:59let's say pluralistic democratic liberal society,
00:28:03it's always desirable to have as many people as possible from
00:28:06different, uh, right, from
00:28:09different parts of the world, experiences,
00:28:12cultures, and so on. As for the bigger
00:28:16picture, I will say again that really these results,
00:28:19specifically, for example, in Mississippi, where literally every
00:28:23vote is being counted or the difference is so minimal, at least at this
00:28:26moment, also incredible results
00:28:29in South Carolina, then for example if we look
00:28:32in Texas, not only did Mr. Talarico and
00:28:35the lady win their races
00:28:39for the positions of senator and governor, but
00:28:43when you look down the, let's say, ballot,
00:28:47you see that Democrats dominate
00:28:50uh at a simply incredible rate
00:28:53of domination, I mean, in a state that until two days ago
00:28:57was under absolute
00:28:59multi-generational control of Republicans. 30
00:29:03plus years Republicans dominated there, in
00:29:07the case of Kansas since 1932,
00:29:11not a single Democrat had ever been elected at the state level, for example, then
00:29:14in North
00:29:17Carolina, where I lived a few years ago, so I'm somewhat
00:29:21familiar with the details of the politics of that
00:29:24state, so Democrats have almost
00:29:28taken over all representative positions and...
00:29:32at the state level, let's say, at the federal congressional level, so these are
00:29:36really, uh, we say
00:29:39again, generational, historical successes for
00:29:42the Democratic Party, and we will see, of course, what they
00:29:45will be able to do with that in the next two years, whether they will be able
00:29:49to build some generational political
00:29:52movement that will be able to cement their
00:29:55results, uh, and victories from
00:29:58last night.
