The foreign ministers of France and Sweden published an op-ed on Serbia in a number of European dailies. The article, authored by Bernard Kouchner and Carl Bildt, coincides with the fifth anniversary of the assassination of Zoran Djindjic. Kouchner, Bildt "want Serbia back on Djindjic path" "Europe has not given up on Serbia and wants to see Belgrade back on the path of late Prime Minister Zoran Djindjic," they wrote. Bildt and Kouchner recalled the "deeply felt convictions" of Djindjic, his love for Serbia and "his certainty that it had to speed up its path towards the European Union." "Serbia is going through another difficult period. We know the shock Serbia feels at Kosovo's loss," they said, adding that Sweden and France recognized the unilateral secession of the province because "there was no other solution". "We took the responsibility of recognizing Kosovo's independence, convinced that this would help Serbia move forward," they wrote. "It is probably hard for our Serbian friends today to imagine that they will soon be European citizens," the pair wrote. "And yet in our view it is certain that Serbia will soon be a member of the EU, because there is no alternative," they wrote. "This is in tune with the flow of history."
