European Integration Committee Chairman and Members Meet with European Parliament Rapporteur on Serbia
European Integration Committee Chairman Aleksandar Senic and the Committee members met today, at the National Assembly, with the European Parliament Rapporteur on Serbia David McAllister, currently in official visit to the Republic of Serbia in preparation of the resolution on Serbia’s progress in the European integration process.
Sharing his support of Serbia’s European integration, European Parliament Rapporteur on Serbia David McAllister said it would be good if the first negotiations chapters were opened in 2015, especially the crucial ones. The decision to open the negotiations chapters and the order in which they will be opened is made by the EU member states, said McAllister.
McAllister said that 22 amendments were submitted to the first Draft Resolution he had submitted to the European Parliament and the plan is to submit the adjusted version in March which the EP is then to vote on.
The officials also discussed the Serbian citizens’ support of European integration and the harmonization of Serbia’s foreign policy with the EU’s.
The meeting was also attended by European Integration Committee Deputy Chairman Laszlo Varga, and Committee members and deputy members Marija Obradovic, Dragan Sormaz, Vera Paunovic, Vesna Markovic, Natasa Vuckovic, Dr Aleksandra Tomic, Ivan Bauer, Biljana Pantic Pilja, Branko Ruzic, Dr Vladimir Orlic and Sonja Vlahovic, as well as the Head of the EU Delegation to Serbia, Michael Davenport.
