I think the USIP tries to promote democrocacy in
Southeastern Europe, however, the overwhelming majority,
if not all, of its attention and effort is focused on Serbia.
Daniel Serwer, director of the Institute's so-called
Balkans Initiative, appears throughout the recently
telivised PBS documentary titled "Bringing Down a
Dictator," about the movement in Serbia called Otpor that
was inolved in bringing down Milosevic.
