Tadic on timing of EU candidacy "The time is not too far away, it is near. I have told you enough," Tadic was quoted as saying. The president said he was pleased with the EU's liberalization of visas and the activation of the interim trade agreement with the EU, adding that association with Europe and the preservation of the country's territorial integrity in Kosovo and Metohija remain Serbia's priorities. He added that Serbia was determined to continue its cooperation with the Hague Tribunal, and that the level of that cooperation was at its maximum at the moment, as it would continue to be in the future.
