EU Migration Commissioner's Serbia Visit Sparks Controversy
Description
EU Lawmakers Criticize Migration Commissioners Visit to Serbia Amidst Protests and Funding Freeze
European lawmakers are expressing concern over EU migration commissioner Magnus Brunners upcoming visit to Serbia, following massive anti-government protests and a potential funding freeze due to judicial reforms and democratic backsliding. Critics argue that the visit could be used by Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić to spin a positive image, despite rule of law issues blocking Serbias EU progress. The visit comes after a railway station roof collapse that killed sixteen people and a heavy police crackdown on student demonstrations. Brussels faces a delicate balance in maintaining Serbias EU aspirations without appearing soft on backsliding.
