European Union wants to accept Albania and Northern Macedonia in its composition

The Supreme Diplomate of the European Union Josep Borrel said that the EU intends to accept Albania and North Macedonia in the Alliance.

“The EU should start negotiations on the reception of Albania and Northern Macedonia in the shortest possible time, the delay harms the EU and strengthens the position of Russia,” he stressed.

Note that Albania received the official status of a candidate country for joining the European Union in June 2014. The Council of the European Union approved the negotiations on the entry of Albania and North Macedonia on March 24, 2020.
