Serbia demoted in EU accession grouping, says opposition leader

Opposition leader Dragan Đilas claims Brussels has moved Serbia from the second tier of EU candidate countries to a lower 'concrete league', indicating a slowdown in accession prospects. The claim is based on unverified information from Brussels and may reflect political posturing ahead of elections. If accurate, it signals a shift in EU-Serbia relations, potentially linked to Serbia's stance on Russia sanctions and Kosovo normalization.
