Brnabic: EU's credibility rests upon implementation of Community

BELGRADE - Serbian PM Ana Brnabic said on Tuesday the establishment of a Community of Serb Municipalities in Kosovo-Metohija must now be on the agenda and that the EU's credibility rested upon its implementation.

"In terms of EU integration, regional cooperation and a stable and peaceful region, the Belgrade-Pristina dialogue is definitely the number one priority. The Community of Serb Municipalities must really be on the agenda at this time," Brnabic said, noting that the first agreement on normalisation of Belgrade-Pristina relations had been signed in 2013.

On April 19, the agreement will turn ten years old, she added.

"Six points from the Brussels Agreement relate to the Community of Serb Municipalities and the EU's credibility now rests upon implementation and formation of the Community of Serb Municipalities, after which we can move on," Brnabic said at a regional conference on Euro-Atlantic integration of the Western Balkans, trans-Atlantic cooperation and civil society.
