Preserving peace, stability in region important

Belgrade/Skopje, 18 April 2018

Prime Minister Ana Brnabic took part in a working dinner in Skopje tonight, organised by EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Federica Mogherini and Prime Minister of the Republic of Macedonia Zoran Zaev.

At the dinner organised for representatives of the Western Balkans as part of the visit of Mogherini to the region, the topics discussed were European integration, current political and security situation, as well as regional political and economic cooperation.

The Serbian Prime Minister reiterated that she is pleased that the European Commission's Annual Report on the process of Serbia's accession to the European Union recognises the results of this and the previous Government of Serbia achieved in the implementation of economic reforms.

She reiterated that the report is positive and balanced for Serbia, but that the Government will give comments to the European Union regarding parts with which it does not agree.

The Prime Minister highlighted the importance of preserving peace and stability in the region, as well as the definite forming of the Community of Serb Municipalities, in accordance with the Brussels Agreement.

The Prime Minister condemned the recent brutal arrest of Director of the Office for Kosovo-Metohija Marko Djuric in Kosovska Mitrovica.

She informed the interlocutors about the details of the arrest.

Brnabic added that open dialogue at the political level, intensive economic cooperation and communication among young people is very important for stronger networking in the region.

When it comes to European integration, the Prime Minister welcomed the European Commission's recommendation on starting EU accession negotiations with the Republic of Macedonia and the Republic of Albania.

Prime Minister Brnabic will meet tomorrow in the Serbian government with Mogherini on the eve of the forthcoming EU-Western Balkans Summit, scheduled to take place on 17 May in Sofia.
