Thousands of people blocked a section of motorway through Serbia's capital Belgrade on Saturday in an protest against new laws environmentalists say will let foreign companies exploit local resources.
Serbia's government has offered mineral resources to companies, including China's Zijin Mining Group and Rio Tinto, an Anglo-Australian multinational. Green activists say the projects will pollute land and water in the Balkan nation.
Protester Miljan Dzelatovic said he had been moved to protest after seeing videos of environmental damage allegedly caused by mining activities by Rio Tinto in other countries.
The protesters are angry about a referendum law passed last month which will make it harder for people to protest against polluting projects, as well as a new expropriation law which makes it easier for the state to acquire private land.
