Summary/Abstract: From 1 January to 30 June 2021, the European Union (EU) issued a total of 45 foreign policy declarations with which it requested candidate and partner countries to comply. Of this number, the Republic of Serbia complied with 24 declarations, which means that in the first six months of 2021, Serbia's compliance rate with the EU's Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP) was 53%. Given that the overall percentage for 2020 was 56%, we can say that Serbia is currently recording a slight decline in compliance. Therefore, it is expected that the compliance trend will most likely remain within the average since 2014. Namely, the lowest compliance rate in Serbia so far was in 2017, at 47%, and the highest in 2015, at 66%.
