Answer given by President Juncker on behalf of the European Commission

29.1.2019

Subsequent to the dissolution of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, the exact location of the border between the Republic of Croatia and the Republic of Serbia in the area of Gornja Siga requires further clarification.

The Commission is aware that the Republic of Croatia and the Republic of Serbia are currently in negotiations with a view to achieving this clarification.

Until this process has been finalised, the Commission understands that the Croatian authorities assume the responsibility of safeguarding the respect of EU rules in all areas under their control.
