Palmer: EU made historic mistake that rejected Albania, Northern Macedonia

He has said the European Union has made a historic mistake with this case.

This is important after the EU's failure to find a compromise for opening accession negotiations with northern Macedonia and Albania for membership. In our opinion, this is a historical error and a bad message for the entire region,” said Palmer.

He also said he wants the Western Balkans to have a perspective on the EU, adding that the US would do everything in its power to convince the EU to change the current situation before the upcoming Union leaders' meeting in Zagreb.

Otherwise, Palmer made these statements after meeting with Serbia's President Aleksandar Vuciq.
