This is CBS, Eye on the World. I'm John Batchel. I welcome Ivana Stradner of the Foundation for the Defense of Democracy.

Some months ago, Ivana alerted me to a crisis in Serbia. This is the Western Balkans, and Serbia is led by for a decade, more than a decade now, a man named

Vuchich, who is a very powerful leader in his own country and has a reputation of being something

of a dominant figure, sometimes called bully throughout the Western Balkans. Well, it turns out

that Vouchich now has his own problems, and they begin

with the headline in the Financial Times. This is the newspaper out of London that is very,

very aggressive in reporting foreign affairs. Crisis threatened beginning of the end for

Serbian president reads the headline.

Alexander Vuches faces two deadlines that could seal his fate.

The protests have continued for weeks, and Ivana is here to explain what the protests are about and why this could lead to the fall of a very powerful man.

Ivana, a very good evening to you.

It was a shock to read the report that you've given me over weeks in the financial

time saying, there it is in print.

What began as a crisis of tragedy for young people?

What happened in Novi Sad?

Good evening to you.

Good evening.

Indeed, for some people, this might be an expectable news.

But for me, this is something that I actually expected

and told you already several months ago.

Because when in November, there was the collapse of a concrete canopy in Novi Sad.

It was back then 14, but then people actually eventually died.
