BBC World Service - Weekend, Serbia tops Europe's vaccine roll-out

Serbia leads the way in vaccine roll-out in Europe; demonstrations planned in Russia

A success story: How Serbia got at the top of the COVID vaccination chart.

Also, protests are expected across Russia in support of the jailed opposition activist Alexi Navalny; we hear from his chief of staff.

Joining Celia Hatton to discuss these and other issues are Latika Bourke, UK correspondent for the Sydney Morning Herald, a daily newspaper published in Australia; and Kevin Maguire, associate editor for the Daily Mirror, a national newspaper in the UK.
