This and next year to be "crucial for Serbia's EU bid" (B92)

Serbian Prime Minister Ana Brnabic met on Tuesday with Head of the EU Delegation to Serbia Sem Fabrizi.

Fabrizi presented the Report of the European Commission on Serbia’s progress in the process of EU accession, the Serbian government announced on its website.

Brnabic told in a joint press conference that this annual report is good and positive for Serbia, that it reflects to a large extent what Serbia is like today with all its advantages and disadvantages and lists the jobs that are still to be done.

She said that she is satisfied with the current situation and stated that Serbia will do everything to fulfill the recommendations of the European Commission in order to open as many chapters as possible in the negotiations with the EU.

The prime minister pointed out that Serbia has made the biggest progress in the field of economy, that the report notes some progress in the field of the rule of law, in the fight against corruption and organized crime.

Brnabic expressed her satisfaction with the fact that the European Commission recognized the constructive role of Serbia in regional cooperation.

She also pointed out that Serbia has made better progress in the field of rule of law than it is stated in the report.

She added that she is surprised that in the report the European Commission recognized the progress of Pristina in the establishment of the Community of Serb Municipalities, and at the same time it did not recognize that Serbia had adopted a prosecutorial war crime strategy and amendments to the Constitution.
