Peter Szijarto, who is attending the meeting of the EU Council in Helsinki, says that Western Balkans integration into EU should happen fast.
He assessed that countries in the region had done the best they could to speed up the accession process. "Accession negotiations with Serbia must be accelerated, while Serbia should be allowed to enter EU prior to 2025", Szijatro said.
Preceding tomorrow's debate on regional co-operation, which will be attended by six Western Balkan representatives in addition to the EU minister, the Hungarian diplomacy chief urged his EU counterparts to stop "just complaining" about the influence of other powers in the Western Balkans and called on the EU to be the one to respond in the fastest way.
"Why don't we allow Western Balkan countries to become member states as quickly as possible?" Szijarto asked. Peter Szijarto concluded that Hungary, as a close neighbor of the region, clearly understands the importance of Western Balkan integration into the EU.
Dusan,
There is no comparable union to the EU for Serbia to join. If Serbia chooses Russia it will be a fatal mistake, far worse than being bombed by NATO.

If Serbia had recognized Kosovo in 2008, she would be in the EU by no, however, people like Dacic continue to do irreparable harm to Serbia.

Szijarto is right.
is slowing down regional prosperity.
There is only so much that isolated candidate can do before becoming a part of the system.
Dont even look at Serbia now , remember how that republic was much better organized and laws were followed with small corruption during peaceful Yugoslavia time. Before 1990 Serbia ws at the ssme level like Portugal.
If denied EU membership and it is for almost 2 decades, central European country Serbia is loking for partnerships elsewhere.

Mr.Szijarto has not given a reason for Serbia to be admitted to the EU. If he thinks that an emotional plea is sufficient, he is sadly mistaken.
