Greece backs Serbia’s EU integration

Greek Foreign Minister Stavros Dimas says Athens is a proponent of Serbia’s EU accession and that slowing down of the process would be EU’s strategic mistake.

“Greece has been a consistent and loyal proponent of Serbia’s EU accession and we believe that slowing down Serbia’s pathway would be a strategic mistake for the EU,” he pointed out.

Dimas added that Athens would continue to advocate its position ahead of the European Council meeting in March, stressing that there had been many positive developments in Serbia, such as cooperation with the Hague Tribunal and Serbia’s regional role and importance.
