Addressing the Serbian parliament Committee on Foreign Affairs, Jeremic pointed out that he does not believe that the EU will condition Serbia, because five member states of the Union will not change their decision not to recognize the unilaterally declared independence of Kosovo, and new conditions may follow only as a result of consensus.
"If it comes to conditioning, Serbia will have no other option but to say "no" to further European integration process", Jeremic said.
