In a meeting with the prime ministers of the Netherlands and Luxembourg, Mark Rutte and Xavier Bettel respectively, in Belgrade in the evening on July 3, Serbian Prime Minister Ana Brnabic said that EU integration remained Serbia’s foreign policy priority, stressing that support of the Netherlands and Luxembourg was crucial for stepping up the accession process.

Brnabic informed her counterparts about the ongoing reforms in Serbia, particularly in the judiciary and freedom of the press and safety of journalists, according to a release from the Serbian Government.

Brnabic also stressed that Belgrade was fully committed to the dialogue with Pristina, noting that the issues of unfailing protection and ensuring safety of the Serb community members in Кosovo and Metohija were equally important for Belgrade, it is said in the release.

After visiting Belgrade, where they also talked with Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic, Rutte and Bettel have arrived in Kosovo and have met with President Vjosa Osmani and Premier Albin Kurti on July 4.
