Miscevic: Next gov't to hold sessions on EU every two weeks

BELGRADE - The next government of Serbia will every two weeks hold sessions on the country's path towards the EU to speed up the integration process and achieve the objective of opening the first negotiation chapters by the end of June, Serbia's chief EU negotiator Tanja Miscevic has announced.

"The idea of future Prime Minister Aleksandar Vucic to hold regular cabinet sessions on the topic is an excellent measure that will draw the attention of the entire government and all ministers to all matters related to the process of European integrations and the monitoring of the negotiations", Miscevic told Wednesday's issue of Vecernje novosti.

Dedicated efforts are under way to ensure that some of the negotiation chapters are opened already by the end of June, during the Greek EU presidency.

"We are interested in the soonest possible start of negotiations on the difficult Chapters 23 and 24 on the rule of law, financial control, science and education and free movement of workers, and, of course, on Chapter 35, which is related to the agreements in the Belgrade-Pristina dialogue," Miscevic said.
