A group of non-governmental organizations from Serbia sent an open letter of the Governments of the EU Member States, President of the EU Commission, EU High Representative for Foreign Policy and Security and Commissioner for Enlargement, welcoming the latest efforts to accelerate Serbia’s rapprochement to EU.
The NGOs believe that such approach can only keep European prospects for the country open, prevent the isolation of the country by non- and quasi-democratic forces, and call on EU to sign the Stabilization and Association Agreement as soon as possible.
The signing of the SAA will insure a framework for civil society, democratic political forces and the business community to move the country towards irreversible democratic developments, because bringing Serbia closer to the EU is a matter of consolidation of democratic changes it went through.
- The SAA can also encourage and promote new coalitions within Serbian political structures that will speed up the Europeanization of the Serbian social, political, economic and legal space, states the letter.
The letter adds that EU should maintain intensive and permanent dialogue with Serbia that will include civil society, associations of small and medium businesses, professional associations and all pro-European political parties.
- For these reasons, we appeal to the Governments of the EU Member States to give their vote to signing the Stabilization and Association Agreement with Serbia as soon as possible, concludes the letter.
