EDS Policy days Belgrade

Serbia is in the process of European Union integration and has recently made significant strides in joining the block by opening negotiations and aligning its policies to mirror those of the union. This event would show the EDS' full support for Serbia's EU integration and give a regional perspective for EU membership for the entire Western Balkans, keeping in mind that Montenegro is also an EU candidate state, while Albania and North Macedonia are pursuing membership talks. It would also draw emphasis to other areas that these countries need to work on in order to fulfill their European aspirations. This includes minority rights and the inclusion of minorities in the EU integration process. As a result, we would invite the Hungarian national minority, as the biggest minority group in Serbia, to give us a first hand account of their adadasdasa experiences in EU integration and their activities in supporting this process. This event would send a strong message to the Serbian public, as well as others in the Western Balkans, that they have a European perspective and are welcome to become part of the European family.
