Key findings of the 2016 Report on Serbia

The European Commission published on 9 November 2016 its annual report on Serbia's economic and political reality in the framework of the European Union's 2016 Enlargement Package.

This year's progress report positively assessed the country's economic improvements and in other areas. But it also pointed out some challenges ahead. The Serbian government was said by the media to have been generally satisfied with the report.
