"Oh dear! More BS from Brussels mouthpiece. Let us put it this way. With a tottering Brussels friendly regime in Belgrade (only in power because of heavy eu interference in Serbia's elections), a strong opposition (also in Banja Luka) and dwindling public support for joining the Emerald City, it is Brussels that is running out of time.
No candidate status in the near term = even less influence over Belgrade. "

I don't know why some people think that the EU would be lost without Serbia as a member. A state like Serbia, with not even 8 mio people and a neglectable GDP is as important as a fly for the EU. Only Serbia can benefit from becoming an EU member. The only reason for EU memebership is to embed Serbia (and the whole Balkans) into European values and structures, to avoid future trouble and floods of refugees and economic emigrants. That's what the EU learned from the 90th.
in other word- in order to get into the eu give up kosovo, join nato, and anyother kind of poltical sovreighty in the hopes of joining a bankrupt european union... hurrray for human righs while relying on foreign powers to keep serbain minorites safe in kosovo. wow hurray for progress in the balkans

Essentially what this mouthpiece is doing is playing chicken hoping that Belgrade will jump first. If Tadic jumps first, then he only undermines his goverment's political position vis-a-vis the opposition, especially at a time when his coalition is loosing support and cynicism is growing. Tadic promised results yet Serbs still do not see sufficient effects, regardless of announced support (grants/loans etc.) from the EU and affiliates.
On a hypothetical front, there have been recent repeated reports that Germany is now pushing for Croatia to given the green light now that it has made the minimal efforts at dealing with organized crime and corruption. Imagine if it does get the go ahead and Belgrade doesn't. That would smack of the type of one-sided favoritism that Brussels has been practising in the Balkans for the last 20 years and would not play well at all in Serbia. Add to that the large western powers are blocking an independent investigation into Kosovo Albanian organ smuggling in the UN and the result is regardless of the promises and BS from Brussels, Serbs will see it clearly at face value, i.e. empty words.
Let me repeat again, this guy is effectively the spokesman and should never be taken at face value. The deal, if there is one to be made, will be behind closed doors by the Council of Ministers. Remember the 'Serbia will never get Accession Status'? Well Brussels found and elegant way around it. They will very likely do something similar this time around too. In Brussels, it is always do as we say but not as we do....
I think EU needs to reevaluate the membership process. It would be wise to consider what a country has to offer, and weigh it against what a country will certainly take.
This line of thought was not carried and a mistake was made with some current EU members (which shall not be mentioned) and it seems to me that these actions are chasing away one of the few non-EU nations who can contribute more to the union than they will request from it.
