BBC World Service - Weekend, Planned protests in Hong Kong

Hong Kong braces for mass protests; Britain and Brexit; elections in Kosovo

Hong Kong braces itself for more mass protests today.

Also in the programme: The British Prime Minister says he wants the European Union to compromise on Brexit, but is there enough time left?

And elections overshadowed by allegations of war crimes in Kosovo.

Joining Julian Worricker to discuss these and other issues are Noga Tarnopolsky, the Los Angeles special correspondent in Israel and the Palestinian Authority, and Eric Albert, a London correspondent for the French newspaper, Le Monde.
