(8 years ago)If you really want the European Union, Serbia should be raised by two chairs and strongly move towards Brussels. The biggest obstacle on this road is, in fact, its landing in the western chair and in the Russian chair”, again commemorating senior US official Hoyt Brian Yee, broadcasting Koha.net. That statement [...]
He issued that statement almost at the time when Serbia's president Aleksandar Vuciq has ordered that by the end of his mandate, in 2022 all the work needed for Serbia's entry into the European Union will be completed.
Regional Policy Centre Director Aleksandar Popov says the US speaks directly, not on bail like Europe.
“Ye has once again stressed Russia's great ambitions to reinforce its influence in the Balkans through Serbia's back, as it experienced long ago in Macedonia. The problem is that Russia has penetrated deep into this space and borrowed Serbia. With the vote against Resolution for Srebrenica, then on sale of <x1Migges 29”, the Russians think they have fulfilled Serbian wishes and now they seek against the” service, Popov claims.
When a year and a half comes to the agenda of Kosovo's status, but also the chapter on harmonisation with EU foreign policy, Serbia will be forced to make its distance with Russia, or the entire European agenda will fall into water. The problem is that anti-European moods are increasingly large, so less than 50 per cent of Serbia's residents are for EU entry”, Popov says.
In Interview for Greek Agency ANA-MPA, Yee for the second time in two months, has advised Serbia “clearly to let EU member states know that 100 percent is committed to accession and to show that it supports the EU vision rather than Russia's”.
