Why did Macro not meet the opposition in Serbia?

Macro for Serbia in the EU

There is no defined date for EU accession. This is a process. When things are ready, we'll be ready to inform you. It would not be good for Serbia to enter the EU too quickly”, Macron has said.

Macro for nationalism:

I'm a patriot, but I'm not a nationalist. The nationalist is a patriot who does not have the” project, Macron said in Belgrade.

For dialogue between Kosovo and Serbia, Macron said:

We can't go back. You have a president who has the courage to say what is written in the Constitution of Serbia is not what European partners see. There is no magic solution”.

Macro for Kosovo:

We were very honest in the conversation. I will organise a meeting with you, the prime minister of Serbia, the Kosovo leadership, Chancellor Merkel. France wants a deal. Serbia and Kosovo are European countries and we want to translate this into facts”, the French president said. /Periscope.
