PROMOTING SERBIA'S TRANSATLANTIC INTEGRATION
(January 1 - December 31, 2011)

The project is meant to help to build public and institutional support for the country's integration into the Euro-Atlantic community, offer rational arguments for strengthening transatlantic cooperation (a national goal set back in 2000), as well as to sensitize domestic policymakers and international stakeholders of possible exit strategies vis-a-vis the still prevalent anti-NATO climate in the Serbian society as a whole. Project activities actually correspond to the ongoing public debate on the pros and cons of Serbia's membership of NATO and as such include six policy papers (dissecting Serbia's progress towards Euro-Atlantic integration) circulated in the form of electronic bulletins and three panel discussions, each addressing the topics covered by policy papers.

EU CANDIDACY POSTPONED:
A TEST FOR DEMOCRATIC PARTY

December 2011

EU summit conference of December 9 denied Serbia EU candidacy: Serbia had failed to demonstrate readiness to see to the problems discussed in Brussels within Belgrade-Pristina

an end to the "borders issue" in the Balkans. Hits shot at KFOR troops were among key factors against Serbia's EU candidacy. The present government that four years ago won the elections with its pro-European option (the coalition "For a European Serbia") was caught in its own trap...   Acrobat PDF (337kb) >>>

THE 'HUNT' FOR MLADIC

January 2011

The 'Mladic case' is the paradigm of Serbia's social reality - of its attitude towards the past, towards reforms (of the security sector), towards justice
and, finally, towards its neighbours. The alleged drama surrounding his arrest is a spectacle everyone is a part of. One of the key reasons for Serbia's delayed progress...
