Picula noted that Serbia’s pace of accession to the European Union (EU) has been stagnating for years, citing a lack of alignment with EU’s foreign and security policy, the stalled dialogue with Kosovo, a lack of sincere will to progress on the European path, deteriorating conditions for media and civil society, and the dismissal of recommendations to improve the electoral process.
