Summary/Abstract: Since the EU’s Enlargement Strategy was presented in early 2018 with a roadmap for Serbia’s possible entry to the EU by 2025, the consensual narrative was that with a bit of hard work and pushing along, Serbia could fulfil that deadline. At that point in time, a deal on Kosovo seemed to be approaching a final phase, the Serbian government was still undertaking some reforms, especially in the area of rule of law and constitutional amendments, and it seemed, at least declaratively, to hear the constructive criticisms presented by the European Commission when it came to issues with democratic institutions and the freedom of expression.
