EU Commission Presses Serbia Over Expulsion of Italian Journalist Moratti

The European Commission has formally raised concerns with Serbia over the expulsion of investigative journalist Massimo Moratti, a correspondent for an Italian press-freedom organization. This marks a rare direct EU rebuke of Serbia's treatment of foreign media, potentially complicating Belgrade's EU accession talks. The incident signals growing friction between Brussels and Serbia over rule-of-law and media-freedom standards.
