Amendment 1

Markéta Gregorová

on behalf of the Verts/ALE Group

Proposal for a regulation

Recital 5 a (new)

Amendment: Text proposed by the Commission and Amendment
Text proposed by the CommissionAmendment
(5a) However, Serbia is not compliant with the conditions provided by Article 2(1), point (d), of Regulation (EU) 2024/823 due to the persistent and serious erosion of the rule of law and fundamental principles of democracy, including free and fair elections. Additionally, Serbia's alignment with the Union's Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP) has been steadily declining since 2021, and Serbia has not aligned with restrictive measures against Russia, nor with the majority of the statements of the Union High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy related to Russia and Ukraine. Serbia has also not aligned with Union restrictive measures related to Russia, China, Belarus, Iran, the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea and Venezuela. For these reasons ATM should not be prolonged for Serbia.

Amendment: Text proposed by the Commission and Amendment
Text proposed by the CommissionAmendment
(8a) The close political, economic and military interconnection of certain Western Balkan states with Türkiye, a state which has repeatedly violated international law and which engages in destabilising practices in the region and beyond, may undermine the credibility and effectiveness of the stabilisation and EU association process. The Union should closely monitor the Western Balkans partners’ external engagements and ensure that they do not run counter to the objectives and principles of the SAA and that they do not include any form of relations with terrorist organisations, groups or networks designated as such by the Union, the United Nations or other international bodies.
