European Movement in Serbia

The European Movement of Serbia says that grouping the existing chapters into six clusters is inapplicable from the point of view of Serbia.

The Forum brought together close to 200 young socially engaged people from the Western Balkans.
Young people will have the opportunity to discuss current topics and challenges on a panel with three presidents.
Three-day Forum commenced on Friday and will last till Sunday, November 24.

At the international conference "Messages from the Western Balkans" organized by the European Movement in Serbia, Dittmann said that resolving relations with neighbors, in addition to reforms, modernization and the rule of law, is one of the demands of the European Union towards Serbia.

BELGRADE - The fact that 2025 is being mentioned as the year of Serbia's potential EU accession does not mean it will actually happen if Serbia fails to meet the requirements from the negotiation framework with EU member states, which clearly outlines its roadmap to the EU, says Vladimir Medjak of the European Movement in Serbia.

Former Deputy PM Suzana Grubjesic is back in the public life with her appointment as the general secretary of the European Movement in Serbia.

Bulgaria began with its European Union presidency on January 1st. In the next six months, Sofia will be the initiator of the Union's plans including the enlargement process in the Western Balkans. Serbia expects that the "deadline" for its EU entry in 2025 will be made official during the Bulgarian presidency, IBNA reported.

BELGRADE - European Movement in Serbia (EMinS) President Mihailo Crnobrnja is hoping Serbia will join the EU by 2025 - as has been announced by some EU officials - and believes the enlargement process will not stop despite the EU's problems.

President Aleksandar Vucic's comment this week that the country does not have the courage to change its constitution has revived speculation about alleged unofficial requests from EU states for Belgrade to drop its constitutional preamble which defines Kosovo as part of Serbia.

BELGRADE - Due to a serious standstill in EU enlargement in the Western Balkans, other interested actors have emerged and the EU will have to address seriously the issue of filling the political space here, said the participants of the forum "The Foreign policy of Serbia - between Brussels and Moscow."

The recent rise in anti-EU rhetoric among Serbian officials, according to Maja Bobic from the European Movement in Serbia, is affecting people's understanding of the benefits of EU integration.
