Joksimovic, EU ambassadors on continuation of Serbia's European integration

Belgrade, 30 October 2020

Minister for European Integration Jadranka Joksimovic held a video meeting today with Head of the European Union Delegation to Serbia Ambassador Sam Fabrici, and the Ambassadors of EU Member States to exchange views on negotiations priorities and prospects for EU accession.

Joksimovic presented the priorities in the work of the Ministry of European Integration in the coming period – both in terms of the European integration process and further negotiations on EU accession, and in terms of planning and programming development assistance to be provided by the European Union from Instrument for Pre-Accession Assistance III.

The officials confirmed the readiness of the new government of Serbia to intensify reforms, which are a precondition for further progress in the process of European integration and a precondition for the overall sustainable development of our society and economy.

In line with that, Joksimovic emphasised the determination to objectively consider the recommendations set out in the annual report of the European Commission and to undertake activities that will accelerate the already started reforms in key areas.

The Minister expressed the expectation that in accordance with the new methodology, for which Serbia expressed acceptance at the highest political level, an Intergovernmental Conference will be held by the end of the year, at which Serbia would present its results and strategy for EU accession next year.
