Ana Brnabic and Gert Jan Koopman Discuss Cluster 3

At the end of her visit to Brussels, National Assembly Speaker Ana Brnabic said that the meetings with the European Commission’s Director-General for Neighbourhood and Enlargement Negotiations Gert Jan Koopman and the former EU Ambassador to Serbia Emanuele Giaufret went very well and were constructive, and that the main topic was the opening of Cluster 3.

"Both meetings were very good and constructive. We discussed specific topics related to Serbia's further European integration, the reforms we are currently working on, the implementation of the ODIHR recommendations, amendments to the Law on the Unified Electoral Roll, the election of REM members, adjustment with the foreign and security policy and what needs to be done to achieve the opening of Cluster 3," Brnabic told reporters in Brussels.

She added that there was also talk about the dates and tentative visit of the President of the European Commission to Serbia.

When asked if it was possible for Cluster 3 to be open by the end of the year, Brnabic said that she hoped so and that Serbia was making an effort.

"It does not depend just on us, not everything always depends on the government. Of course, the government and the people in power in parliament, the President of the Republic bear the greatest responsibility, but for a country to be successful, you also need a serious, responsible, constructive opposition and responsible, constructive, civil societies, because all these reforms must be inclusive," said Brnabic.

She also pointed out that if you constantly have someone who does not want to participate in these processes and who boycotts them, they are de facto preventing their country from making further progress in European integration.

"As the Speaker of the National Assembly, I hope for constructiveness on their part. And we are always here to discuss all open topics and all difficult and most difficult topics and difficult and most difficult issues," said Brnabic.

She added that everyone, both the opposition and the ruling majority, must support what is needed to advance European integration.

"The only thing that worries me is that not everyone, even those who call themselves pro-European parties, want Serbia to progress further towards the European Union. Because they see it as a success for Aleksandar Vucic and the Serbian Progressive Party, but it is a success for Serbia and all the countries that have progressed."

"They made progress by everyone working on it together, not because someone was working and someone was tripping them up. So in that sense, we have to fundamentally change our approach to European integration," Brnabic pointed out.
