Maybe Serbs have more sense than Guardian writers credit

The Guardian is sniffy

Serbia's hopes of fast-track integration into Europe suffered a severe setback when President Boris Tadic was voted out of office in a victory for a more nationalist rival in the latest European election to kick out an incumbent.

With most of the vote counted, Tomislav Nikolic, a former strident nationalist, took the presidency from the pro-western Tadic by two to three percentage points.

Could it be that the majority of Serbian voters realized that their best interests will not be served by submitting themselves to become  vassals to the grey men of Brussels.

"Serbia" might have "hopes" for EU memebership but Serbians might not be so sure it is a good idea.
