Srdjan Majstorovic from the Center for European Policies said live on Dan that the EU sent a clear message to Serbia with the European Parliament report, and that is that “a certain degree of trust and patience has been lost, and that Serbia is expected to give concrete results on specific issues “.
“The report of the European Parliament is the most concrete yet, and it is an important political message that the time of mimicry and simulation of change is over. These comments (Matter of Jovanjica, Krušik, Jovanjica and Telecom) will remain in the Serbian archive and will follow us until all the cases mentioned are investigated. “I suppose there was lobbying behind the scenes, and that’s common, because candidate countries always want those statements to be interpreted in a better tone and presented much better than they really are,” Majstorović said.
It adds that the political parties in power and the opposition are using their political partners in the EU and trying to influence the text of such and similar documents.
“I think it is good that these three scandals are here and that the Belgrade authorities understand it in the right way. That criticism is not there for the sake of criticism, but as a constructive tool that indicates very clearly and precisely what Serbia must change. I note that the specific language of the report is refreshing, because it is common to generalize both generic terms and terms in the report. “The message here is very clear, and the message is that a certain degree of trust and patience has been lost, and that concrete results are expected from Serbia on specific issues,” he said.
Commenting on the mention in the report of the attacks on KRIK and CRTU, Majstorović stresses that this is “one more reason to wonder why a country that aspires to be a leader in European integration has such scenarios in the Assembly for days” , as well as that “we have a play where the Committee meeting was abolished, despite the fact that there was an obvious violation of the Code of Conduct for deputies.”
“Such things confuse our partners in the EU, as well as Bilčik, who tries to point out what things are necessary to start from a standstill,” Majstorović emphasized.
He believes that the rhetoric in the Serbian parliament “indicates a situation that denies reality and the reports of national NGOs, as well as renowned international organizations.”
“They say the same thing as the European Parliament rapporteur for Serbia, Vladimir Bilchik, and that is that the quality of democracy in Serbia is declining, in regression. The messages from the Assembly are not good and I am afraid they indicate emotional reactions, “Majstorović said.
“This report may be harsh, but that is exactly why it should be read, as Bilčik states, which Serbia should pay attention to in the next period,” Majstorović stresses, noting that the term “concern” was used in so many like 30 places in the report.
“Serbia can do a lot, a lot of bowling, but the question arises why it doesn’t do it in practice,” Majstorovic concluded.
