National Convention on the European Union coordinator Bojana Selakovic said in Belgrade on Nov. 14 that "anti-European narratives are dominating" the election campaign in Serbia because the entire European integration process "has tendentiously" been reduced to the relationship between Kosovo and sanctions against Russia.
Selakovic said that "this is an evident systemically imposed narrative."
"This leads to the European integration process losing its essence for citizens and what should have been its essence, which is reforms, have been lost and we have no other way to reform this society and make it suitable for the people so that they do not want to move out" of the country, Selakovic told BETA.
The slow progress in reform processes, she added, was responsible for no new chapters being opened.
"At this time it is clear that we have a problem insomuch as the focus of European integrations has boiled down to two segments, when we look at the negotiating framework, they represent only three out of 35 chapters," she added.
