"Pro-European" Opposition Turned Their Backs on European Laws! They Want Europe to Bring Them to Power, But Don't Support What Truly Brings Serbia Closer to the EU
So-called pro-European opposition in Serbia demonstrated their true colors during the vote on European laws on Thursday, clearly showing that they selectively use European values as political marketing, not as a real and sincere commitment. At the moment when laws from Serbia's Euro-integration agenda were on the agenda, precisely those who most loudly call for Brussels and European standards decided to turn their backs on it.
TL;DR
- Pro-European opposition MPs in Serbia voted against laws crucial for EU integration.

- The opposition seeks political support and financial aid from Brussels but avoids backing concrete reforms.
- Key adopted laws included those on combating human trafficking, health programs, and consumer protection.
- Analysts view their actions as political calculation, prioritizing personal gain over national interest.
- This behavior reflects a significant distrust between the ruling majority and the opposition.
- European topics are increasingly viewed through the lens of internal political conflict in Serbia.
