“With severe condemnation against the brutal attack on TV Pink journalists Gordana Uzelac and Mara Dragović by supporters of far-right parties and movements, I expect the authorities to show that Serbia is a country where the rights of all citizens are equally protected, and where threatening journalists with violence, let alone resorting to violence, cannot go unpunished”, said Minister of European Integration Jadranka Joksimović.

Minister of European Integration in the Government of the Republic of Serbia Jadranka Joksimović has met with the students of the School of European Integration who are currently on a study visit to Belgrade - namely, employees of local self-governments and representatives of civil society organisations from the north of Kosovo and Metohija.

“The statement of President of the European Commission Jean-Claude Juncker that there would be no enlargement of the EU before the end of the current legislature of the European Parliament in the following 16 months is realistic - although he has announced a strategy for the successful accession of Serbia to the EU by 2025, which does not dramatically differ from the circumstances we deem realistic”, said Minister of European Integration Jadranka Joksimović for Tanjug, assessing that it was unrealistic to expect that all negotiation chapters would be opened and closed by 2019.

Minister of European Integration Jadranka Joksimović has said today that Serbia is committed to regional cooperation and stability in the most constructive way possible, and that it is, overall, a stable country which, compared to other countries in the region, has shown commitment, constructiveness and readiness for cooperation and dialogue even when others do not show their good will.
