Tanja Fajon MEP told Deutsche Welle that Serbia has made some, but insufficient progress in the European integration process.

“In terms of the process of Serbia drawing closer to the European Union, there are good and bad things. I can’t just criticize because Serbia has made some positive progress but that is not enough,” said Fajon who chairs the European Parliament Delegation to the EU-Serbia Stabilization and Association Parliamentary Committee.

Fajon said that her criticism comes when necessary. “Serbia has achieved some things in reforms but that is not enough. We are still criticizing the public administration, the fight against corruption and crime, freedom of the media, independent judiciary. That is not my criticism, that criticism is from the European Parliament or European Commission,” she said.
