BBC World Service - Weekend, More protests planned in Belarus

Another day of protests in Belarus; the US Emmy Awards

Another day of mass protests is expected in Belarus where demonstrators have been demanding the resignation of President Alexander Lukashenko since his disputed election victory last month.

Also, the Emmy Awards for the best shows on US television over the past year are getting under way.

Joining Julian Worricker to discuss these and other issues are Stacy Hilliard-Cork, a US-born international development specialist who runs a consultancy firm called Taysha, and Miguel-Anxo Murado, a Spanish journalist and author.
