"We all agree that the countries of the Western Balkans region are destined to become part of the EU; that will become a reality in the near future. Serbia is part of that group, and is a country that has followed a difficult path since the former Yugoslavia came to an end after the collapse of the Soviet empire. Moreover, the fratricidal wars in which it became involved and their brutal impact on neighbouring countries and on the entire international community had unfortunate consequences for the country and its people. The so-called ‘war’ in Kosovo, which remains unresolved and very controversial throughout the international community, has also contributed to the fact that peace is still not a reality in the region. It will therefore be desirable for Serbia to continue to move towards the European option. I should like to take this opportunity to congratulate Serbia’s leaders and people on their efforts and on the progress that they have been making. I would stress the role that Serbia has been playing in the stabilisation of the region of the Western Balkans as a whole and, in particular, in the stability and cohesion of Bosnia and Herzegovina."@en1
