The Chair of the Committee on Foreign Affairs David McAllister (EPP, DE) called on the authorities, decision makers and political actors in Serbia to use the Inter-Party Dialogue as a platform to build consensus on outstanding issues in the country’s electoral process.
“I had a very good call with Ivica Dačić and welcome his support of the Inter-Party Dialogue. I firmly believe that the National Assembly and its Speaker play a central role in creating a space for dialogue”, said David McAllister after a telephone conversation with the Speaker of the Serbian National Assembly. He also pointed out that the continuation of the Inter-Party Dialogue is in Serbia’s best self-interest, especially as it is directly linked to the overarching EU membership process.
Parliament’s facilitation team for the Inter-Party Dialogue will be led by AFET’s standing Rapporteur for Serbia, Vladimír BILČÍK (EPP, SK) and the Chair of the Delegation for relations with Serbia, Tanja FAJON (S&D, SI). They will be supported in their tasks by former MEPs Eduard Kukan (EPP, SK) and Knut Fleckenstein (S&D, DE).
