PM Mirko Cvetkovic says it is a realistic possibility that Serbia will be granted candidate status for EU membership by the end of the year, Beta reports. He also expects a date for the start of membership talks to be given in 2011. "Candidate status, date for talks in 2011" "Remember where we were on the European path two and a half years ago when this government was formed. At the very start. I believe that we will end 2011 with a date for talks," said Cvetkovic in an interview for the Web portal Euractiv Serbia and for Beta. The European Commission should give its opinion on Serbia's application for EU membership in 2011, and candidate status is approved by the Council of Ministers based on the commission's opinion. Cvetkovic said that answering the European Commission Questionnaire would not be a large problem for Serbia and that it would all be completed by the deadline. A much greater job is the implementation of reforms in line with recommendations given by the European Commission, which should make it possible for Serbia to gain candidate status, as well as a date for talks, in 2011, said the prime minister.
