Djuric: Serbia to complete all difficult EU accession reforms by 2027

BRUSSELS - Serbian FM Marko Djuric said on Wednesday Serbia would by 2027 complete all difficult EU accession reforms relating to economic, political and all other spheres of life.

Speaking to reporters in Brussels after a meeting with EU foreign policy and security chief Josep Borrell, Djuric said he would like to see Serbia's efforts towards EU accession finally valued 27 years after the country had set out on that political path.

"We want that to be recognised as early as this autumn in the form of opening of new clusters and chapters. That is important for our positioning on the European path. It is important for our living standards, economy but also for the society we want to have," Djuric said.
