Prime Minister Ana Brnabic talked today with the ambassadors of France, Italy, Germany and the USA and the charge d'affaires of the United Kingdom and the European Union Delegation to Serbia about the upcoming referendum on changing the Constitution, scheduled for 16 January.

The Prime Minister stated that Serbia has made great strides in the field of the rule of law and that the change of the Constitution is the most important reform in that area.
Representatives of the Quint countries stressed the importance of the rule of law and called for further progress in judicial reform.

In that context, they stated that the judicial reforms proposed in the referendum represent important steps in strengthening the independence of the judiciary and improving the rule of law in Serbia.

That is also important in the context of Serbia’s obligations in the process of EU accession, it was concluded at the meeting.
Brnabic expressed disapproval of the position of interim institutions in Pristina not to allow the holding of the referendum in the territory of Kosovo and Metohija.
