Lobbying in the negotiations on accession to the European Union

Summary/Abstract: Lobbying for accession to the EU is an important factor in the negotiation process for all candidate countries because it allows more effective adoption, implementation and enforcement of European legislation (acquis communautaire). Since the negotiation process on accession to the European Union takes place in the framework of intergovernmental conferences, lobbying within the institutions of the European Union has a special significance in the opening and closing of all 35 negotiating chapters. As is known, the European Council made on 28 June 2013, the decision to open accession negotiations with the Republic Serbia. The negotiation process for accession to the EU officially started in Brussels on 21 January 2014. With the opening of chapter 24 relating to the sensitive area of justice, freedom and security, Serbia has made significant progress in harmonizing national legislation with European Union law. Within the obligations that were taken by this chapter, is inter alia, the adoption of regulations on the organization and carrying out lobbying activities. With their implementation, Serbia will demonstrate its commitment to the whole accession process integrations in the European Union.
