As the noose tightens around Serbia’s journalists, the European Union can no longer look away
Serbian journalism is being systematically repressed yet European political leaders remain locked in a state of guilty inaction. Reporters Without Borders (RSF) urges the European Parliament to ensure the European Commission assumes its responsibilities in the face of Serbia’s serious violations of press freedom, a principle that must be respected for the Balkan nation to join the European Union (EU).
The European Parliament expresses its regret for the conciliatory approach of the European Commission towards Serbia, despite its regression in the area of the rule of law, democracy and basic rights, as well as the destabilizing influence on the entire region, and calls on the Commission to use clearer language and to consistently point out Serbia's shortcomings, lack of progress, and even regression.
Serbian journalism suffers systematic repression, but European political leaders continue to be inactive, RSF says.
