Slovak President Ivan Gašparovič met with Serbian FM Vuk Jeremić and said his country supported Serbia’s entry into the European Union “without reservation”.
He also stated that Bratislava’s stance not to recognize Kosovo remained unchanged.
Like Slovak Foreign Minister Mikulaš Dzurinda before him, Gašparovič highly praised the arrest and extradition of Ratko Mladić.
This would help accelerate talks on Serbia’s EU membership considerably, he stated after the meeting held in Bratislava on Monday.
Jeremić said Serbia’s goal was to obtain EU candidate status and set a date for the start of accession talks.
