Brnabic: We expect stronger, more vocal Czech support for Serbia's EU integration

PRAGUE- Speaking to reporters after a meeting with Czech counterpart Tomio Okamura in Prague, Serbian Parliament Speaker Ana Brnabic said on Friday Belgrade expected stronger and more vocal Czech support for Serbia and its EU integration.

Brnabic also said the future of EU enlargement had been one of the main topics at the GLOBSEC 2026 forum in Prague.

She said she was pleased to have had an opportunity to meet with Okamura again less than a month after their last meeting, and noted that the Czech parliament speaker was a great friend of Serbia.

"It is hardly likely that we have many such friends in the world," Brnabic said, adding that Okamura had spoken again about his and the Czech government's "commitment to Serbia and support for Serbia's European integration."

She said she had asked for "more vocal" Czech support for European integration, especially as "the times are coming when decisions on many things will be made."

"We agreed to cooperate even more closely, to communicate even more regularly and more frequently, and we expect stronger, more vocal Czech support for Serbia and our European integration," Brnabic said.
