(ANSA) - BELGRADE - If a referendum on the country's future in the EU were held tomorrow in Serbia, 48% of votes would be in favour of EU membership, compared to 28% against. Here are the results of a survey conducted by the EU Integration Office in Belgrade.
The survey - carried out on a sample of 1,027 Serbian citizens aged 18 and over - revealed at the same time that 15% of voters wouln't go to the polls, whereas 9% would not know exactly how they would vote.
Moreover, 73% of respondents said they believed that some reforms are necessary in order to enable Serbia to join the European Union. Serbia officially began the EU accession negotiations in mid-December, with the opening of the first two negotiation chapters, n. 32 on the financial issue and n. 35 on Kosovo.
