EU? No thanks!

Just as a quick footnote to the April 29 article about Balkans and the EU: the BBC reported that EU’s Commissar – er, Commissioner – Chris Patten was in Belgrade pressuring Serbia to submit to ICTY’s demands.
“He said compliance with the court was a key step on Serbia’s path towards becoming a member of the European Union”, says BBC (my emphasis).
So this wonderful new mega-state considers its fundamental values to be expressed by submission to an illegitimate, politically motivated, criminally abusive and unprofessional kangaroo court? What more incentive does one need to bid it good riddance?
