Droutsas added that in order to reach that goal, “respecting the principles of good neighborly relations is a very important condition.” Jeremić said that Serbia has shown good will and he hopes that the countries of the region will show the same at the EU-Western Balkans summit in Sarajevo on June 2, adding that he hopes the summit will be “a strong signal for the EU that the region has matured and is ready to cooperate, despite differences.” http://www.b92.net/eng/news/politics-article.php?yyyy=2010&mm=05&dd=22&nav_id=67303
