For some time now, Sweden has noted shortcomings in the Serbian government's commitment to reform. This applies, among other things, to "the work to uphold the principles of the rule of law, to combat corruption and to protect fundamental freedoms and rights," the government writes in a press release.
"Countries cannot expect Swedish support if they do not deliver the reforms and development that we expect. That is why we are now making these changes," says Minister of International Development Cooperation Benjamin Dousa (M) in a comment.
