French Ambassador to Belgrade Christine Moro said that the evaluation of EU member states on achieved results was crucial for the opening of Chapter 35. “Progress achieved in the dialogue between Belgrade and Pristina led to the opening of Chapter 35. However, there is still a lot of work because the agreements reached in Brussels are not completely implemented on the ground. It is therefore too early to say when this chapter will be closed and how long it will last,” said Moro.
The Ambassador stressed that the things that are expected from Serbia under Chapter 35 are absolutely known. “Chapter 35 will be limited to agreements already reached in the dialogue between Belgrade and Pristina. There will be no new themes, new conditions or anything else that is beyond what is already known,” said Moro.
She also announced the French position that the next chapter, 23 and 24, should be opened as soon as possible, preferably in early 2016.
