![“A balancing policy [by 🇷🇸 President Aleksandar #Vučić] between #Russia, #China and #Europe is not possible,” 🇩🇪 Chancellor Friedrich #Merz told reporters after today’s #EU-Western #Balkans Summit, where he held a one-on-one meeting with Vučić and later joined talks alongside Emmanuel #Macron, António #Costa and Ursula #vonderLeyen.

“In Belgrade we have a problem,” warns 🇪🇺 Commissioner Marta #Kos after her meeting with 🇦🇹’s foreign minister in Vienna. Kos warned that “when members of the European Parliament are called scum, it reveals a questionable understanding of democracy,” concluding that President #Vučić’s and Speaker #Brnabić’s “statements against the EU will also not improve Serbia’s reputation in Europe.” Her advice to the 🇷🇸 government is “to focus on the EU reforms that they only recently pledged to president von der Leyen and to me.” Kos sketched what she described as “a possible way out of the crisis”: “Build a #judiciary that is independent and able to fight corruption effectively. Ensure that #media can work freely and independently. And a reform of #electoral #law that guarantees that only the will of the Serbian people decides the majorities in parliament.” Kos also underlined that “people have the right to protest” and that “the severe violence on the streets of Serbia, acts of vandalism, must stop.” She expressed expectation for “the police to act appropriately and respect fundamental rights.”

“The EPP has not turned a blind eye to what is happening in Serbia,” Manfred #Weber, president of the #EPP, said this morning. “This is why I will, as EPP leader, initiate a scrutiny process about Vučić and his party’s membership in the EPP family in the coming days.”

![When asked about the idea recently floated by leaders of 🇦🇱 and 🇷🇸 in an #FAZ op-ed—full #single #market and #Schengen integration as an interim step towards full 🇪🇺 membership—Commissioner Marta #Kos told #PoliticoEurope that “it will ultimately depend on the direction [#EU] member states choose to take.” But Kos explained that such model already exist with countries like 🇮🇸, 🇳🇴, and 🇨🇭, and that they “can take part in discussions in the Council, but they do not have voting rights,” concluding that “this shows that there are already models for deepening relations outside full membership, and we should carefully consider what is already working well.” On #Vučić and #Rama, Kos also warned that she is “not sure whether both of those leaders fully appreciate how much needs to be delivered to become part of Schengen or the internal market. There are extensive reforms required, especially regarding the rule of law.”](https://image.24vids.com/tw-2036471544608686198/amplify_video_thumb/2036471457606410243/img/JdIXbPKcoE6QcjAA.jpg)

![“This is the time to enlarge the 🇪🇺,” says Johann #Wadephul, 🇩🇪 foreign minister, speaking in Berlin this evening alongside his 🇫🇷 counterpart. Wadephul added that there is “a concrete and realistic possibility that, within two years, the 🇪🇺 could be enlarged by one or two, perhaps even three countries from the Western #Balkans [he did not specify which three countries], and also by two northern countries [🇮🇸 🇳🇴].” In Wadephul’s view, this “would clearly show that we are attractive and that we are on a good path to becoming the third superpower in the world.” He also reminded the audience that the Western Balkans were promised membership in the 🇪🇺 25 years ago, and that “it is now time for them to deliver by achieving the criteria and for us to give them a real opportunity to join.” Wadephul also [joked?] that he would be “open to 🇨🇦 joining as well.” #Europe2026](https://image.24vids.com/tw-2033970722343723258/amplify_video_thumb/2033970576843268096/img/y6N7hHuqxhfAq3Ej.jpg)

Following his meeting with 🇬🇧 Foreign Secretary David #Lammy in Belgrade, 🇷🇸 President Aleksandar #Vučić called for “a compromise solution” to the situation in 🇧🇦, urging to “work towards a negotiated agreement.” Vučić emphasized that he does not “share the opinion on who is responsible for” the current situation in 🇧🇦. In his view, Milorad #Dodik’s “unconstitutional actions are not the cause, or the sole cause.” It is noteworthy that Vučić referred to Dodik’s activities as “unconstitutional,” and that the 🇬🇧 Foreign Secretary’s press statement made no mention of 🇧🇦. Additionally, the 🇬🇧 statement was entirely cut from both Vučić’s and his Progressive Party’s official YouTube channel—something rarely done with statements from other leaders.
