Twenty-five years since the fall of Slobodan Milosevic

Weekend

Available for over a year

Twenty-five years ago, pro-democracy protests took place in what was then Yugoslavia and forced the authoritarian leader Slobodan Milosevic to step down. So does the fall of Slobodan Milosevic in Serbia still cast a shadow over the country? Srdja Popovic is one of the leaders of the student protest movement Otpor which played a crucial role in bringing him down. Weekend's Julian Worricker asked him about what happened on this day 25 years ago in Belgrade.
