DS for loose Western Balkan confederation (Tanjug)
BELGRADE - Head of the opposition Democratic Party (DS) group in the Serbian parliament Borislav Stefanovic said that a new political community should be formed in Western Balkans, organized as a loose confederation with a minimum of common bodies, which would enhance the EU accession prospects for countries in the region.
The new political community in Western Balkans should include Serbia, Kosovo, Bosnia-Herzegovina (BiH), Macedonia, perhaps even Montenegro. It would be a confederation with essential common bodies for relations with Brussels, Stefanovic said at the conference World in 2015 on Thursday.
Such project would guarantee the unity of BiH and would not affect the sovereignty of any of the countries, he said.
We can do better or worse, but we will never be assessed individually but only as Western Balkans, as we are assessed in Europe today, said Stefanovic.
