he Western Balkans are an integral part of the European Union and Spain fully backs the region’s integration into the 27-member bloc, Spain’s prime minister said Monday.
Pedro Sanchez was in Albania’s capital Tirana Monday in the first-ever trip by a Spanish prime minister to the country. The stop in Albania was the last leg of Sanchez’s Western Balkan trip that earlier took him to Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro and North Macedonia.
“The EU cannot be conceived without the Balkans,” Sanchez said at the news conference with Albanian counterpart Edi Rama. “Balkans’ incorporation will strengthen and add EU members.”
