I will write this for young people reading these news not have any confusions about EU. EU is a political creation of a countries which have aligned their general political goals. Everyone gets something. For example, Romania got investments and freedom to work and travel more, Western EU got the access to the land for NATO bases close to Russian border. Membership in EU does not have anything to do with civilization, culture etc. like some people write here. It is a political creation, not the brotherhood of nations. EU countries each are very nationalistic. I had to leave Serbia to learn what being a nationalist really means. Someone signed here as "Proud EU citizen". Should I comment this? And although the world is getting maybe better, racism and fascism are totally normal and legitimate in EU. So average Dutch for example thinks his life worth's more then Bulgarian. Of course, nothing is black and white. Should Serbia join - yes. But that will happen when political goals align. Serbia is already more then "developed and civilized" to join. It was probably even decades ago, especially before the wars...

Hey, Rogozin. Who asked about your opinion? Leave that kind of speech for those you can easily bully. And keep your bloody hands off Serbia.

"The Russian mafia/state is playing us as always - pretending to be our protectors while undermining our progress and adding more corruption to our already corrupt system."

Couldn't have said it better myself. Also, you guys are hating on the EU... I get it. You want your sovereignty. But look at Bulgaria and Romania. 10 years ago they will similar to Serbia. Now they are much richer, with more investments, better quality of life, faster growth, better infrastructure (look at the brand new metros in Sofia and Bucharest).

It sucks that the EU is letting Muslims in. I want a European Union, not a Eurabian Union. But at the end of the day, EU = better life for Balkan countries. Isn't this what matters most?

"it emphasized Serbia's role as the biggest and most authoritative state in the region, on which much depends."
LOL! Hungary, Bulgaria, Romania, Greece, even Croatia, all much more important.

Despite your frustration, the EU seems to be doing just fine without Serbia. What has Serbia to offer the EU, raspberries? Ha, ha, ha!!!
It is rather pathetic you're so furious that no one pays Serbia any respect.

Trying to explain to people like you why Serbia is important to the EU is like talking to chimpanzees. Its pointless since its well beyond your capacity to understand, but watch as another 2 chapters are opened before the end of this year.
(sj, 27 June 2017 11:20)

sj,
Serbia can open all the chapters it wants, it will be for not. The EU is making Serbia jump through hoops just like a circus animal. There are a few certain conditions Serbia must fulfill, and you know what they are, I needn't tell you again. I understand these conditions are a sore spot for you chetniks, but if you are to be welcomed into the European family of civilized nations you must conform. Oh yes and another issue, it would allow Serbs to fit in much better if you all had your tails amputated at birth.

Thank you,

Serbia EU bid will fail, South Stream will come very very very soon. Make Russia Great Again.

Serbia will enter EU. Maybe without formal recognition of Kosovo but entering EU without Kosovo practically is a recognition. And now that Macron won in France maybe it will come sooner. Till now it seems that US and EU are in perfect harmony regarding Balkans despite their "conflicts" and very active. Yee and Hahn seem to be frequent "visitors" in the region these days.

"... he thinks Montenegro is to Serbia what Ukraine is to Russia"

That was a bad comparison. Croatia is to Serbia what Ukraine is to Russia. Both Croatia and Ukraine were allies and collaborators to Nazi Germany in WW2 and in post-Yugoslavia/post-Soviet Union started to kill their Serb/Russian minorities in the Krajina/Donbass. The Minsk agreement is the new Z-4 plan. If Russia was still as weak as in the 1990s we would have had today a genocide in the Donbass, like we had it 1995 in the Srpska Krajina. And in both cases Germany and the US were supplying arms, money and political propaganda in support for the former Nazi puppet regimes and new US/German vassals.

Rogozin pretty much hits the nail on the head. The only thing is, the EU may be more flexible regarding Serbia's application just to despise Russia.

Russian influence is on the increase and the risk for the EU (and NATO) is that the people are against membership regardless of the political will. This will cause serious issues that I'm sure Russia will exploit when the time comes.

I Wish that was true, but sadly its not. The EU will accept all of Serbia’s demands without even asking Serbia to recognise Kosovo. The EU will bypass this issue by letting Serbia into the EU and then later Kosovo.

The theory being once all these countries are in borders matter little or who recognises whom or what. They become on big family. Well that is the Brussels’ theory anyway.

They cant afford to leave Serbia out.

Tito

pre 6 godina

Are there really still Serbs who think Germany is a friend of Serbia? Germany will always be an enemy of Serbia, as Rogozin said because Germany does not like independent people. They like vassals like the Croats. For that reason Germany always hated Serbia and Yugoslavia. Do a google image search for an old German postcard from before WW1. Search for "Für unsere Menagerie". It will show you the eternal dream of Germany. Capturing Russia and getting Serbia (the guy below the bear) as well. Or conquer Serbia first and then Russia like in 1941. The same happens now since 1991 again, but in slow motion, since it can't do it with tanks anymore so it resorts to slower/softer economic and monetary war, i.e. the German European Union, the Fourth Reich.

Sure, let us know when that happens so we can celebrate for your happiness - hopefully in our lifetime since some people have been waiting for decades for such celebrations lol - icj1

Here in the UK, many of us are celebrating Brexit, it has started after decades of waiting. Join in on the party, this is just the beginning.

"all Balkan leaders came to Belgrade on this occasion - it emphasized Serbia's role as the biggest and most authoritative state in the region, on which much depends."

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH APRIL FOOLS HAS PASSED.

Firstly, that is a joke. I mean if you seriously believe this is how important Serbia is, I feel for you. Secondly, not every Balkan leader came.

Hey, Rogozin. Who asked about your opinion? Leave that kind of speech for those you can easily bully. And keep your bloody hands off Serbia.

I will write this for young people reading these news not have any confusions about EU. EU is a political creation of a countries which have aligned their general political goals. Everyone gets something. For example, Romania got investments and freedom to work and travel more, Western EU got the access to the land for NATO bases close to Russian border. Membership in EU does not have anything to do with civilization, culture etc. like some people write here. It is a political creation, not the brotherhood of nations. EU countries each are very nationalistic. I had to leave Serbia to learn what being a nationalist really means. Someone signed here as "Proud EU citizen". Should I comment this? And although the world is getting maybe better, racism and fascism are totally normal and legitimate in EU. So average Dutch for example thinks his life worth's more then Bulgarian. Of course, nothing is black and white. Should Serbia join - yes. But that will happen when political goals align. Serbia is already more then "developed and civilized" to join. It was probably even decades ago, especially before the wars...

Serbia EU bid will fail, South Stream will come very very very soon. Make Russia Great Again.

Serbia will enter EU. Maybe without formal recognition of Kosovo but entering EU without Kosovo practically is a recognition. And now that Macron won in France maybe it will come sooner. Till now it seems that US and EU are in perfect harmony regarding Balkans despite their "conflicts" and very active. Yee and Hahn seem to be frequent "visitors" in the region these days.

Mendo, icj1 wanted to know when the celebrations started so I was just letting him/her know they already have. Brexit is on its way so who cares if some have changed their mind.

Despite your frustration, the EU seems to be doing just fine without Serbia. What has Serbia to offer the EU, raspberries? Ha, ha, ha!!!
It is rather pathetic you're so furious that no one pays Serbia any respect.
(Proud EU Citizen, 27 June 2017 09:16)

Trying to explain to people like you why Serbia is important to the EU is like talking to chimpanzees. Its pointless since its well beyond your capacity to understand, but watch as another 2 chapters are opened before the end of this year.
(sj, 27 June 2017 11:20)

sj,
Serbia can open all the chapters it wants, it will be for not. The EU is making Serbia jump through hoops just like a circus animal. There are a few certain conditions Serbia must fulfill, and you know what they are, I needn't tell you again. I understand these conditions are a sore spot for you chetniks, but if you are to be welcomed into the European family of civilized nations you must conform. Oh yes and another issue, it would allow Serbs to fit in much better if you all had your tails amputated at birth.

Thank you,

"The Russian mafia/state is playing us as always - pretending to be our protectors while undermining our progress and adding more corruption to our already corrupt system."

Couldn't have said it better myself. Also, you guys are hating on the EU... I get it. You want your sovereignty. But look at Bulgaria and Romania. 10 years ago they will similar to Serbia. Now they are much richer, with more investments, better quality of life, faster growth, better infrastructure (look at the brand new metros in Sofia and Bucharest).

It sucks that the EU is letting Muslims in. I want a European Union, not a Eurabian Union. But at the end of the day, EU = better life for Balkan countries. Isn't this what matters most?

"Montenegro's NATO membership was essentially directed against Serbia"

"Serbia will never join the EU"

"Serbia will be broken up"

"they will never like you"


Words of hope from Rogozin! Russian "tough love".

If one says these kinds of things to a kid they grow mentally unstable.

That's great and yes I'll join the party as well as soon as the NHS starts to receive an additional £350 million a week. Or did that happen already?

I read this and had to stop:
"it emphasized Serbia's role as the biggest and most authoritative state in the region, on which much depends."
LOL! Hungary, Bulgaria, Romania, Greece, even Croatia, all much more important.
