After the opening of the conference "Cooperation in the Drina River – Cooperation in Europe", Joksimovic said that without stability in the region, there is no progress, and added that all should be united to this end.
The road towards the EU is sometimes full of obstacles, but also full of benefits for our citizens, and therefore European integration is a strategic goal of the government, Joksimovic said.
Joksimovic reminded that €1.5 billion is made available from IPA programme for Serbia in the period from 2014 to 2020, which is an average of about €200 million of grants per year.
