The so-called Kosovo in the EU? "No..."; These are the reasons

"We see that instead of de-escalating the situation, new elements of escalation are appearing in the country. The last such element is the decision of the Central Bank of Kosovo (CBK) to ban the use of the dinar," Varhelyi said at the first meeting of NEAR days 2024 (NEARDAYS2024) in Brussels.

The European Commissioner for Enlargement added that he is ready to give his opinion on Pristina's application as soon as the Council entrusts him with it.

NEARDAYS2024 is organized by the European Commission's Directorate General for Neighborhood Policy and Enlargement (DG NEAR), headed by the Dutchman Geert Jan Koopman, who in the field of enlargement helps countries with the perspective of joining the Union in meeting the criteria.
