Eu accepted countries with way bigger problems in the past amd has now officially started accession proces with Ukraine. Taking that into consideration, i dont see the point of joining such a club.

The best thing the EU can do for the Balkans is stay out.

From Greece also, or only from western Balkans?? Because I think you want Greece inside and western Balkans out, for stupid jealous reasons!

The Balkans has been in consistent turmoil ever since the Ottoman Empire was driven out. The Balkan Wars the Two World Wars, Serbs fighting Croats, Bosnians, Kosovons. In 150 year😢, the only time there was peace in the Balkans was during.Tito’s time. I’m glad Bosnia is next. I am, however, VERY worried about Serbia in the EU! I’m afraid even if Serbia DOES meet the Democracy, Judiciary and Human Rights arena, they will just backslide like Hungary has done under Orban. The EU needs to make 2 changes as it enlarges. First, it MUST do away with having a unanimous vote! It’s getting much too big for that. It needs to move to a Super Majority vote for things to pass say 70 or 80% not 100%! Second, when countries DO backslide, there MUST be be a mechanism in place to suspend totally their participation in the EU and an established time frame for the country to once again meet all the EU criteria and if it doesn’t, it loses its membership until it once again qualifies.

What a democrat you are! Mussolini admires you. As a Serb i do not give a damn about EU and that means that we dont need you and dont want to join.

[@djape1977]

Interesting way of thinking. And you have no objections on Croatia, a country based on ultra nationalist ideology of Ustashe from WW2, based on repeated genocide, openly celebrating war criminals from WW2 and 1990s wars?

[@annehersey9895]

@@djape1977 Absolutely everything you mentioned was horrible and intolerable. At least in this new century, Croatia seems to have turned a corner but like all countries, they need to have a reckoning with their past, admit n come to terms with it and vow those days are over. Time will tell as well history if they succeed.

​@@annehersey9895I don't see anyone from the EU objecting to repeated and constant denial of war crimes by public officials, denial of holocaust, whitewashing of ethnic cleansing that took place in 1991-1995 and repeated incidents of public figures and officials failing to punish people who cause problems to ethnic Serb refugees trying to return to their property in Croatia.

[@djape1977]

​​@@annehersey9895you're right about the turmoil after the ottoman empire. In fact turmoil was constant under ottoman empire as well and instead of it ending with an end of the oppressive empire, it was replaced by the colonialism of Austrohungarian empire and Germany which both used local ethnic tensions for their goals. This continued in the war of 1990s with Germany's BND directly arming Croatian ultra nationalist separatist movement. Europe needs to also punish it's war criminals and make public all the relevant information, documents and names of people who took part and in large portion caused the war, like for example CIA - BND conference in Munich 1977 where future partition of Yugoslavia was discussed and future zones of influence determined.
