| Video Discription | (23 Sep 2000) English/Nat XFA British K-FOR commandos were patrolling and securing ethically-mixed villages in Kosovo on Saturday ahead of the Yugoslav federal elections which take place on Sunday. In the village of Devet Jugovic, north of Pristina, 300 Serbs and 300 Albanians live on opposite sides of the main road that runs through the town. On Saturday, KFOR soldiers stopped and talked to villagers to measure the level of tension in the town, while on the outskirts other soldiers monitored activity from a watchtower. The commander of the British commandos, General Robert Fry, stressed that K-FOR forces would have no part in providing security for the electoral process on Sunday, but would be maintaining a safe and secure environment so that the Serbs could exercise their democratic right to vote. He said K-FOR would not be guarding polling stations but emphasised that his troops would be ready to intervene if things turned "nasty". SOUNDBITE: (English) "Our responsibility is for general security. You will not see soldiers guarding polling stations, because it is not our business to do that. Our business is to be slightly distanced from that, but (our responsibility is to ) A) - give a general reassurance to all elements of the community that we are there and that we are quite capable of intervening if it gets rather nasty and secondly it is to give a reassurance to those people who wish to exercise their democratic rights."
