So Serbia is being forced to give up their own territory in order to become a EU bankster slave. Great deal!

Everyone knows about the evil blood thristy serbs, they kill women and childeren witho ut a second thought. They're like that when in a group, but if you get them alone they try to be so nice, a bunch of cowards they are.

Bring back Yugoslavia, that will solve all this. Alternate leadership between Bosnians, Croats, Slovenes, Albanians, and Serbs. Vote by proportional representation. Represent all cultures.  United economy. No internal passports. Social-Capitalism 2.0 for Yugoslavia 2.0 
Down with 'EU' (read NATO) backed terrorism and Balkanization
You may say that I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one.  I hope some day you'll join us, and the world will live as one.

The leadership of the Serbia could join with Eurasian Union with Russia Federation.   The leadership of the Russia Federation and his people help out when the people of the Serbia needs help.

Deja vu...Just like WWII when the Belgrade politicians were pressured by the Nazis to sign the Tri-partite act....and outraged Serbs eliminated the collaborationist government of Prince Paul....Tadic is repeating history as the Nazi collaborator.

Looks a little bit like apartheid to me. I don't like the fact that the military of my country engages in helping a drug dealing organ harvesting Albanian mafia cartel running a county named "Kosovo" and murdering its critics in foreign countries. But like Georgia, Kosovo is considered "good", therefore every refugee will be sent back by the gouverment. It is sick...

Serbs must get permission to use the roads they had built.

Kosovo as a "state" is a criminal monster child of NATO aggression on Serbia. As the territory it is the holy part of Serbia, now with over 150 churches and monasteries burned or demolished since the start of occupation and establisment of the "state". Kosovo "state" is a criminal enterprise that will be dismantled once the NATO occupation ends. Serbia's joining the EU is hardly a way towards regaining any influence let alone control over Kosovo. On the contrary, Serbia must resist this path lest it finds itself without any sovereignty over precious little what remains of its former territory.

Serbia currently looks like nutcase who is looking for love from enemies. While it may be attractive option for oligarchs and government, ordinary people are strongly against EU.

Some 70 per cent of Serbian people are against joining the EU. Serbian elections are coming this march, and the pro-western parties will fail like never before.

Serbian government wants to join EU. But what about the people? That could well be something very costly to the majority of the people in Serbia!
