The resolution expresses support for Serbia's membership in the EU, but calls on official Belgrade to urgently comply with the sanctions imposed by the EU against Russia and Belarus, and this is set as one of the conditions for Serbia's further progress on the road to European integration.
The report of the rapporteur Vladimir Bilčik on Serbia was adopted with 523 votes in favor, 78 against and 34 abstentions.
Although European Parliament adopted rapporteur Vladimir Bilcik’s report on Serbia’s progress towards the European Union, it expressed regret that Belgrade did not align with the EU sanctions policy on Russia, a press release said on Wednesday.
The European Parliament report "strongly regrets that Serbia has not aligned with EU sanctions following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and calls on the newly elected authorities to urgently align with the EU’s decisions against Russia".
"Members express concern about the spread of disinformation and call on the Serbian authorities and the European Commission to fight disinformation, Russian propaganda and other hybrid threats in the Western Balkans", the press release said.
"EU accession is Serbia’s strategic decision. We need to see it treated strategically by political leadership in Serbia. It is therefore important that Serbia moves towards the EU, not sideways", Bilcik concluded.
"After the April 2022 elections and Russia’s war of aggression, there is a real sense that our partners in Serbia must move forward decisively on their European path. Our report reflects factually on the complex political reality in Serbia and encourages all pro-European forces in the country to focus fully on progress in rule of law reforms, the Belgrade-Pristina Dialogue and alignment with EU international positions", Bilcik said.
Adopted at the plenary session, the report of the European Parliament took the form of a resolution, which is not legally binding, but still represents political guidelines for the country in the process of European integration.
What has Serbia achieved since the early years? I don’t have enough room to list all the investment that has arrived in Serbia from the EU, China, India etc etc etc.
Tell me who has invested in Croatia, or Kosova? Who?????????? They have NOT opened up a can of Coke in either place let alone industry.
Serbia lagging in economic terms ha,ha, ha,ha,ha. Which countries are they? Croatia, Slovenia, BiH or is it Montenegro or Northern Macedonia? Please get your head out of your arse and stop looking at western BS.
The same western BS that declared that the Russian economy was the size of Italy. The US of Dumb Dumbs found out quickly that its not mate. Actually, it’s on the same level as Japan.
Croatia, Slovenia, BiH, Montenegro and Northern Macedonia would NOT survive if not for EU money. That’s a fact kiddo.
When stuck for an opposing argument out rolls the free press crap. So, you call CNN, Fox, NYT or Washington Post etc free press? Then your delusional.
As I have said many times come back here when the Russians lose in Ukraine and Ill apologise to you but I bet you would not give the same commitment to me if Ukraine loses LOL.

Truth.......
Your user name is pathetic because you lie so much.
Freedom of press always makes me laugh. Serbia has 2 CNN chanels on TV, N1 and Nova. The BBC also gets slots to broadcast. There are many newspapers anti Vucic printed every day. Meanwhile what has the west doe....? Yes, they banned Russian media. Now tell us how the west has a free media and Serbia dont. You are pathetic.
As for economic development I can tell you Serbia in the last 9/10 years attracted more foreign investments than all the other former YU reoublics combined. So how come you lie so much...???
Serbia has progressed greatly in the last decade.
Also Serbia has a backbone and steers its own policy, unlike Croatia which has lost 22% of ots population since 2014. Montenegro, Croatia and Macedonia are little poodles of Berlin and Brussels as well as nato idiots.
So Truth (sorry, lier) how about you post somethin honest and truthful...... Idiot.

If Serbia adopts sanctions against Russia, then Serbia might as well kiss her behind goodbye.
EU is the enemy camp and anything your enemy wants you to do is for their benefit and your demise.
If Vucic does this, I can't see how he can remain a politician let alone in parliament.

Am I wrong or these EU resolutions resemble the resolutions of the sclerotic commies polit byros in TIrana, Bucharest, Sofia and Moscow? Same idiotic expressions the likes of 'we call on Moscow to abandon their flirting with the imperialist bloc and align their policies with their natural allies in Sofia and Beijing'. Who had ever thought that my generation of born anticommies would have heard the same bs coming out of first the East and then the West in a single lifetime span...

Stay away from the American puppet the EU. They only want to increase their alliance against Russia. US is only using the EU for fighting a proxy war in an attempt to destroy the only other super power so they can dictate and control the rest of the world. It is the US that must be destroyed, before they destroy the world.
