The European Parliament, European Commission and EU member states have always underlined that the opening of the first chapters requires a parallel and sustainable progress in the dialogue with Kosovo and the rule of law, and Serbia has made progress in all three chapters relating to the issues, European Parliament Rapporteur for Serbia David McAllister said on Monday.

In an interview to Belgrade-based daily Danas, he commended Serbia’s commitment to engaging in the dialogue, in relation to Chapter 35 that deals with the normalization of relations between Belgrade and Pristina.

The agreements reached in late August constitute a positive development for which Serbia is reaping the reward on December 14.  However, this is just a transitional objective. The real job starts with the opening of chapters, McAllister noted.
