Overthrow of Slobodan Milošević

Hundreds of thousands of people from all over Serbia protested against the non-recognition of the results of the presidential elections by the then regime.
It is 21 years since the mass demonstrations of the citizens of Serbia that led to the departure from power of the President of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, Slobodan Milosevic.

Almost two decades seem to have eaten all the ties that the October 5th spirit has barely held on to, in recent years. The day before this year's October 5th, there were no announcements, no reminders, not even statements by the former main actors of Milosevic's downfall.

Marko Milacic, who heads the Resistance to Hopelessness ("Otpor Beznadju") Movement, has set a NATO flag on fire.

He did this in front of the Spuz prison in Podgorica, where he showed up on Monday to start serving his 20-day sentence.

BELGRADE - The situation in Venezuela may lead to a "color revolution," the Russian foreign ministry said in a statement.

BELGRADE - Today marks 16 years since October 5, 2000, and the overthrow of the then president of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (FRY) Slobodan Milosevic, after mass demonstrations of supporters of the Democratic Opposition of Serbia (DOS).

SPS official Djordje Milicevic on Monday denied that his party is considering "any kind of cooperation" with what he referred to as "the new DOS."

The Democratic Opposition of Serbia (DOS) was a coalition of 19 parties that in 2000 ousted Slobodan Milosevic and his Socialist Party of Serbia (SPS) from power.
