      The EU should finally grow a spine and stop rewarding countries with authoritarian governments for their antagonistic actions. Serbia has not had any kind of positive influence on the region or Europe, why exactly are we giving them hundreds of millions for environmental projects when friendlier countries would gladly take this? Why not spend this on projects in the EU itself, or if me must give it to non-EU countries, Bosnia, Albania, Moldova etc.

      I really hope it doesn’t just end in a few corrupted pockets. Fixing corruption and democracy should go before all else.

      How is it ensured that the money actually reaches its intended destination and doesn’t end up in the pockets of Vučić and his corrupt government?

      …aaaaand it’s gone.

      But look, we built a park! There is even benches for the poor to sit on.

      In all seriousness, like it or not, aid is needed to keep Russian influence away. I remember when Australia cut funding to South-Pacific islands…Oh hi China.

      **The European Union approved EUR 240 million in non-repayable assistance to Serbia from pre-accession funds for projects worth an overall EUR 325.2 million. The investments, intended for the period through 2032, are for waste and wastewater management, energy efficiency improvement and the transition to renewable energy sources.**

      Serbia and the European Union signed a financing agreement for the Multiannual Operational Programme on Environment and Energy, worth EUR 325.2 million. It includes EUR 240 million in non-repayable funds from the Instrument for Pre-accession Assistance, and Serbia is providing the rest.

      State institutions will run the mechanism under an indirect management system, in accordance with the way that EU member states conduct programs within the cohesion and regional development funds. The agreement is another type of support in EU accession, the Ministry of European Integration said.

      # Grants also intended for green energy, waterworks

      Serbia’s National IPA Coordinator and State Secretary at the Ministry of European Integration Mira Radenović Bojić said the agreement enables significant financial support for improving environmental protection and further developing the energy sector.

      “This way we secured support for sustainable waste management, improvement of wastewater treatment infrastructure and the promotion of energy efficiency measures in public buildings and households,” she stressed. Radenović Bojić added that the assistance package also covers the development of capacities for the transition to renewable energy sources as well as the improvement of public waterworks and sewerage systems.

      The program involves measures to protect air quality, aiming to lower harmful emissions and improve public health.

      “In addition to renewing or building infrastructure, the program will support the development of strategic documents and plans for the harmonization with European Union standards. We will invest in capacity building of local and national institutions and in the development of technical documentation. Ultimately, the program will enable better cooperation with the relevant national and international stakeholders including civil society organizations and the private sector, in order to secure integrated implementation and improvement of the sustainable development policy,” Mira Radenović Bojić pointed out.

      I’m from Serbia and this is direct support to the corrupted government that killed 16 people in Novi sad city last November. We had the biggest protest since the fall of Milosevic. Even bigger than that one and EU still decide to send our government the money ? Are you kidding me ? No way only 20% of the people are left with wishes to enter EU. Om all pro left and EU l, but they lost me with their corrupted double standards.

      EU WILL NOT MINE LITHIUM.
