Despite Kosovo Intervention, Serbians Favor EU Membership

What does the Serbian public think about the EU? Despite that the EU has brokered the Ahtisaari Plan that would grant Kosovo a form of "supervised independence," 63% of Serbians living in Serbia say they have a "very positive" (24%) or "somewhat positive" (39%) opinion of the role the EU is playing in the Balkan region. A similar number, 62%, say they think Serbian membership in the EU would be a good thing. Just 9% feel it would be a bad thing.

Two factors explain the difference in our data: 1) the sources and 2) the date of the survey.
On B92, you have results of a recent survey which indicates that 60% of Serbs are in favour of closer integration with Russia (that evil, undemocratic, mafia ridden, single party rogue state) ;-)
In any case, the fact that a majority of Serbs want better living standards through the EU (or a partnership with Russia) in no way justifies bombing of civilian infrastructure (= war crimes by the Geneva Convention) without a UN mandate (= naked Hitlerian style agression against a sovereign state).
