State of the Union by Ursula von der Leyen: There are many clichés about how Europe is losing the race against major global powers.

The farewell of war criminal Ratko Mladić was shameful, but also a symptom of the state of Serbian society.

This must be a condition for us to discuss future membership at all. (translated)
Serbia still lives in its mythology. There is no courage to face the truth from the past. Croatia's priority must be to insist on the payment of war reparations.

Vučić was part of the aggression against Croatia in the nineties, and today he speaks as if Serbia is a victim of everything. This is unacceptable for Croatia.

Serbia is not ready for membership in the European Union. The evidence of this is the way war criminal Ratko Mladić was sent off in Belgrade.
