MEPs Tanja Fajon (S&D, Slovenia) and Vladimir Bilčík had a clear mandate and the support of the European Parliament to be mediators in the dialogue between the authorities and opposition in Serbia, Fajon told an online session of the European Parliament’s Delegation to the EU-Serbia Stabilisation and Association Parliamentary Committee, which she co-chairs.
When it comes to inter-party dialogue in Serbia, “the situation is not only frustrating but perhaps even unacceptable,” according to the Slovenian MEP, who highlighted the European Parliament’s role as a “mediator” and said that it “does not take sides, nor does it make any special proposals.”
