She underlined that the Serbian government invests the same energy and dedication to the part of work related to the use of IPA funds as to the opening of chapters in negotiations on EU accession.
Joksimovic, who is also national IPA coordinator, pointed to the importance of the programmes of cross-border cooperation for the strengthening of good neighbourly relations and regional stability and highlighted the need for a more efficient use of IPA funds intended for those programmes.
We are working together on increasing visibility of IPA funds and thus making the European path clearer to citizens, she stated.
Joksimovic recalled that until 2014 Serbia had programmes of cross-border cooperation with eight countries of the region and worked on them with great success.
Until 2020 Serbia will have at its disposal €284 million from IPA funds of the EU for programmes of cross-border cooperation with Bosnia-Herzegovina, Montenegro, Romania, Bulgaria, Hungary, Macedonia, Croatia and two transnational programmes of cooperation – the Danube programme and the Adriatic-Ionian programme.
