Have Serbia and the EU Fallen Out For Good?

[@balazszentai3364]

This is a difficult matter. While the EU advocates for the preservation of the country's territorial integrity in the case of Ukraine and Georgia, it demands that Serbia give up its territorial integrity and renounce forever the territories occupied by NATO in the 1999 war. It is understandable that this offends the Serbs. If Serbia is rejected by the EU, Kosovo's EU integration may also be hindered and the stabilization of the Balkans will fail.

If the Council of Europe admits a forcibly detached part of Serbia as a member they validate Russia's invasion and criminal partition of sovereign Georgia and the invasion and annexation of swaths of Ukraine.

[@srdjanm7662]

EU had over 80% support in Serbian population until 2008 unilateral declaration of independence of it's south province of Kosovo. EU supported Kosovo over Serbia by putting lot of pressure on Serbia to accept and recognize Kosovo's independence. Serbian people was disappointed by these EU measures and popular support started a steady decline. Instead of doing something to improve this, EU continued with pressure and made Serbia to sit down with government of Kosovo in order to normalize relations. Brussels agreement was signed in 2013, making concessions to Kosovo but guarantees for Union of Serbian municipalities. Most of concessions to Kosovo government were fulfilled but Serbs never got their most important condition fulfilled. Albin Kurti said on many occasions that he will not create Union of Serbian municipalities as he never agreed on that and he didn't signed that Brussels agreement. Instead of sanctioning Kosovo or cutting support for Kosovo, EU kept the pressure on Belgrade. As a result of EU policy toward it's Serbian supporters, people feel insulted, lied to, tricked, sold out. Everything Serbian ultra nationalists were warning people of came true. So supporting EU after everything that happened is not logical at all. Then after war in Ukraine started, western politicians all united to preserve the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Ukraine. Western politicians are saying to Serbia to accept Kosovo's independence since territorial integrity and sovereignty are things of past, it doesn't matter, lets move forward. Now somehow, when it's not the Serbs, and the invader isn't NATO, now it's not obsolete, now war is a very good option, peace is not. Well as someone who was a refugee and felt NATO bombs falling just 300m from my home, I can say that EU is sending mixed signals. Best example of western hypocrisy is the shelling of Sarajevo in 1992-1995 by Bosnian Serbs. As a result of this, Serbs were bombed by NATO, UN sanctions were imposed for excessive use of force against civilians, as it was explained. Well Ukraine armed forces are shelling predominantly Russian city of Donetsk 2014-2024. They fired most likely 3 times more shells on the city, killed more civilians then Bosnian Serbs, more than 700 childred so far. What the west did? How was Ukrain punished for using excessive force against it's citizens? Did NATO bombed them, NO, they are arming them and training them. Did UN imposed sanctions on them NO, they send them billions of financial aid. All this made Serbs who once supported joining the EU think about double standards used toward Serbs. So no, thank you, Serbs don't want to be a member of EU who is acting as enemy of Serbia.

Serbia was also affected because many Serbs back then worked in Greece and Italy which were hit harder than other European countries so they couldn't send money to their relatives and that caused a domino effect - increased immigration to Northern and Western Europe from Serbia proper. However, some of those who left during these 15 years returned for various reasons (also because those who didn't find employment could not stay for longer than 6 months and many Serbs return to retire in their villages and towns in Serbia because their Swiss and Austrian pensions afford them a much better retirement than had they stayed in Zurich or Vienna). The biggest wave was in the years 1988 - 1995 when 800,000 - 900,000 Serbs left mainly to German speaking countries and to the US and Australia but around 250,000 of those were Serbs from Bosnia Herzegovina and Croatia. Note that i did not mention Romania 🇷🇴 nor Hungary 🇭🇺. It is because the demographics in Romania and Hungary are similar to those in Serbia 🇷🇸 except for one major difference. In Romania and Hungary the Roma population is around 11% of the population and also 30% - 33% of newborns. This means that Serbs as an ethnicity are actually the only non-Roma ethnicity in the Balkans that has a fertility rate that is close to that of the replacement rate (it is 1.75 - 1.8 births per ethically Serbian woman compared with only 1.3 for ethnically Romanian and 1.4 for ethnically Hungarian women. Serbian women have a higher fertility rate than their Balkan neighbours for various reasons. Women in villages and small towns typically marry in their twenties not their thirties which is the case in RO and HU and also Croatia 🇭🇷 which has an abysmal fertility rate of only 1.2. Today is Easter in Catholic countries so if you happen to be in a Catholic majority country such as Hungary, Croatia or Slovenia you can visit any church and see that more than half of them are closed (incredible but true) and that those that are open are not crowded. Traditional Catholics call it the Vatican Council II great death wish. They perhaps have a point !

@@An89Go Around 30% of Croatian 🇭🇷 GDP in 2023 was directly a result of the 20.6 million tourists that visited that beautiful country. This figure includes 2.6 - 2.7 million Serbian tourists that are estimated to have spent around 3 billion Euros. Let us for a moment imagine that this figure was only 5% (this is the case in Serbia BTW). The GDP would drop from 18,000 EUR to 13,400 EUR which is only 1,200 - 1,500 EUR above that of Albania (the latter is not in the EU so around 60% of the economy is non registered but anyone who visits will know it is in a much better economic shape than North Macedonia 🇲🇰 or Moldova 🇲🇩 ...

[@CarNikola135]

​ @bullshitdepartment7638 Since restoration of Serbian leadership and state 1804, many times Serbia was not having great relations with Russia, or even bad relations or were on brink of war. During Obrenović dynasty we were mostly under the influence of Austrohungary, 1815-1842 and 1858-1903. During that time Russia did not see Serbia as reliable allay, and saw Obrenović Serbia as Austrohungarian satellite. After Berlin congress, in spite of it, with Russian support, Bulgaria expended it's territory. Serbia declared war on Bulgaria 1885. and lost. So even tho we did not declare war to Russia, that was the war against Russian interest at the time. After the fall of Obrenović dynasty (1903), Karađorđević dynasty had positive shift toward Russia and shift against Austrohungary. That was the time we had "Customs war" with Austrohungary. We also opposed Austrohungary anexation of Bosnia and Hercegovina, where even today live a lot of Serbs. First world war is an example of good relations with Russia, but after Russian Soviet revolution, we opposed new socialist government, since we were still monarchy. So, 1918-1941 we were extremely against Russian government and we supported fled Russian monarchists. During ww2, we, in Serbia, had 2 uprisings, pro monarchists and pro socialist uprising against nazis. Socialist one won the war, and with the help of Soviet Russian liberated Serbian and all of Yugoslavia. After the ww2, we had short excellent relations until 1948, so only 3 years. There was the dispute between Stalin and Tito or if you will split between these 2 Communist Parties. Since that moment we were on brink of war until Stalin died 1953. Somewhere before Stalin's death in 1953 Yugoslavia signed in Ankara Balkan Pact with Greece and Turkey. The treaty was to act as a deterrence against Soviet expansion in the Balkans and provided for the eventual creation of a joint military staff for the three countries. After death of Stalin, there was no or far less chance of Soviet invasion, but our relations never recovered. Yugoslavia has chosen Non-Aligned path, actively participating in forming of Non-Aligned Movement. During Yugoslavia, Yugoslavia was strong opponent to cooperation with USSR and we actively discouraged any Non-Aligned Movement member that wanted or advocated for closer cooperation with Russians. Serbia as newly independent country after desolation of Yugoslavia 1991.. had time to warm up relations with Russia, but it was not getting "this good" until late 90. Then during "Democrats" after 2000 until 2012 we had ok relations, but EU and Germany was our main focus, but since then, were weren't really hostile to Russia, but we didn't have over what to be... Basically, among people during 90, propaganda was about Russia hero that came to help us during ww1, so that is the basis of people support for Russia. After that, Russians supported us in some weapons and they didn't recognize Kosovo, so popularity of the Russia grow among people...

This only proves that dEmOcRaCy is just a facade and way to exploit your way to your interests which is pretty obvious, piss off. That's it.

Tbh the EU should just stick the finger to Serbia. Same as with "Brexit", If they think they are better of alone or with Russia, then they should do it. But they should starting learning Russian, just in case 🤔

Why the EU is right to back Spain against Catalan separatism but can´t back serbia to kosovan separatism

[@BranislavB-hx9zy]

Serbs are laughing at the EU, because the EU is desperately trying to buy Serbia. The EU transfers billions of Euros in non-returnable support to Serbia and EU companies have opened hundreds of thousands of new jobs in Serbia, but Serbs love Putin and Russia and are not interested in the EU and the West, Vucic knows this!

@@iAdam43 Firstly, you should know that the one is a MS, the other one not. Secondly, you should know that a lot of MS recognize Kosovo as an independent state. Thirdly, EU doesn't back Spain in this issue - it just more like Pontius Pilatus. PS. Taking Spain, Portugal and Greece as members was a bit as wrong as taking all the new members after 2000 - that too happened on political grounds, not economic.

@@toinenosoite3173 UN does not recognize kosovo as an independent state many EU countries do not recognize them. So why should we care about some Kosovo just making more conflicts and problems just more people who are going to hate us, creating bigger chaos and descruction... I feel like the european union almost always takes the bad side in conflicts basically anything thats agains Russia, whats their obssesion with Russia anyway? Russia struggles to fight with ukraine they wont attack us I just don´t get it why is everyone so scared and why is everyone trying to help these countries when its just making more enemies this cold war type of shit its getting pretty annoying

Europe ditched Serbia. Not the other way around.

Exactly.. they supported islamists. They dropped even their own people.

Did you watch the whole video? They say explicitly that, if Serbia leaves the Council of Europe, then Serbia can kiss goodbye its chance of being part of the EU. The title of the video is basically a shortcut to attract views, but I guess you just read the the title…

[@urbansenicar81]

It is in Slovenia's interests for Serbia to join the EU. (Along with Kosovo. Methinks would solve a lot of tensions.) It is in Slovenia's interests for the EU to listen to concerns of smaller countries like Hungary. It is in Slovenia's interests for member states to foster the best possible relations with all the third countries, including Russia. I fully support Serbia on its way to the EU.

[@petarjovanovic1481]

People in Serbia are more and more fed-up with the EU pushing and pushing and pushing "Kosovo" into different international organizations. This is the issue. Not because Serbia or Vucich are doing anything different
