Ilija Srdanović, number 1 on the Student List, which won on Sunday in the early parliamentary elections in Serbia, assured in a Tuesday interview with Radio Free Europe that the fresh government in Belgrade would proceed its work on the road to European integration.
– We stay on the way of European integration. Serbia committed to this process as early as 2000. This work will continue. We can surely promise that we will not repeat the actions of the erstwhile government, which in 15 years has led to a decline in support of European integration among the citizens of Serbia by 20 percent points," said Srdanović.
– Building on the common values of civilization, respect for rights and equality, the fight against corruption, the efficient functioning of institutions and media freedom, we will full adapt our interior policy to the requirements of Chapters 23 and 24 of the accession negotiations, which are now the main obstacle to integration with the European Union, provided by the typical of the camp, who will form the future government of Serbia.
Although Srdanović held the first position on the election list supported by Serbian students, it is unclear whether he will become the fresh Prime Minister. So far, it has not been announced who will lead the fresh government in Belgrade.
