lpv:translated text	"Madam President, the decision made by the Council to initiate the procedure for ratifying the Stabilisation and Association Agreement will encourage Serbia to continue its reforms in order to comply with the Copenhagen criteria. The entry into force of this agreement will open up trade between the EU and Serbia and will offer real prospects for accession. Significant progress has been made so far, especially in cooperation with EULEX, in the areas of reforming the judicial system and fighting corruption. At the same time, I believe that the refusal to recognise Kosovo’s independence must not stand in the way of Serbia’s Euroatlantic aspirations. Above all, the Serbian Government has shown its readiness to engage in fresh dialogue with Kosovo under the aegis of the EU. I would also like to mention the key role played by Serbia in safeguarding peace in the Balkans. In this respect, I think that it is of paramount importance to continue the open-door policy towards all the countries in the Western Balkans. Romania has supported unreservedly the expansion of this region towards the EU and NATO, with a particular mention for Serbia. I will end by stressing that this country’s efforts and aspirations must be recognised by European states and encouraged at the same time. It is our duty to support our partners in the Balkans in continuing along the Euroatlantic path which they have already chosen."@en1
