Citizens' questions:
1. Do you, perhaps have the information when will the law of regional development enter the parliament procedure?
2. Does international cooperation exists with other counries beside Romania, such as Croatioa, Bosnia and Hercegovina, Bulgaria, Slovenia...?
3. Do you think that Serbia has institutional capacities on a local level to satisfy European Standards?
4. Education can be strong instrument of development. Do you think that the crossborder cooperation in this field is good, and how can it be increesed through crossborder projects?
5. How do you explain the fact that Novi Sad has faster development that Belgrade, but at the same time it has much less financial incomes?
We think that the responce from the citizens was good as well as their questions and we came to a conclusion that citizens in Zrenjanin are not well informed about EU programmes for Serbia.
The atmosphere on the debate was relaxed and there were no tensions that were expected regarding the situation in preelection campaign.
What bothers citizens the most is the fact that no one gives them concrete answers on questions such as what does every citizen gets by entering Serbia in EU.
