Serbia Assembly President Retaliates Against EU Rapporteur, Neighbors Over 'Red Lines'

Serbian Assembly President Ana Brnabić responded sharply to EU Parliament rapporteur Tonino Picula after he invoked 'red lines' regarding Serbia's EU accession, and also directed criticism at Zagreb, Sarajevo, and Tirana. The exchange signals heightened friction between Belgrade and the EU and its neighbors over conditionality and regional relations. The exact content of Picula's remarks and Brnabić's retaliation is not fully detailed, but the tone indicates a deterioration in Serbia-EU dialogue.
