The foreign ministers of Slovenia, Austria and the Czech Republic, Anže Logar, Alexander Schallenberg and Jakub Kulhanek, stressed the role of EU enlargement to the Western Balkans for the entire EU as they met senior Albanian officials in Tirana a day after visiting neighbouring North Macedonia.
FM Olta Xhacka, PM Edi Rama and President Ilir Meta assured them that Albania was ready to start EU accession talks. Logar said “Slovenia will make efforts for the Western Balkans to be high on the EU agenda, especially during Slovenia’s EU presidency.” He also cautioned against the enlargement process being blocked over bilateral issues.
