Dacic: We back all EU decisions except sanctions on Russia

Serbia's Foreign Minister Ivica Dacic said Wednesday that, when it comes to harmonizing the country's foreign policy with the EU's, Serbia supports everything except sanctions against Russia

Addressing participants of a conference titled "The EU's Common Foreign and Security Policy and Serbian Accession to the EU," Dacic said that the issue of harmonization of foreign and security policy often comes down to the issue of sanctions imposed on Russia, stressing that chapter 31 (foreign, security and defense policy) is much more complex.

"Serbia has committed itself to gradually harmonizing its foreign policy with the EU one and it will do so in accordance with its obligations until the moment of accession to the Union. By that time, we will increase the degree of harmonization in accordance with our interests," Dacic said.

In previous years, Serbia's harmonization amounted to 97 percent, he said, adding that the percentage dropped in the year when the crisis in Ukraine started and when Serbia remained silent on measures against Russia. Serbia's assessment to stay neutral is good, the foreign minister pointed out.
