France and Sweden Prepared to Lend a Helping Hand

France and Sweden have declared that they would like to see Serbia get official EU candidacy. Serbia has already signed an agreement with the EU that opens up trade and more political cooperation yet Netherlands has blocked a move to pass a bill that would carry this further and prepare Serbia for EU candidacy. Netherlands insists that Serbia is undeserving since it has failed to hand over certain war criminals. However, Sweden and France say they are ready and willing to help Serbia prepare to be part of the EU.

France and Sweden both recognize Kosovo.
