Von der Leenen: Implementation of draft status will be a major step forward for Kosovo

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, at a news conference in Brussels, said implementing Kosovo's draft status status draft will be a major step forward.

I think it is important for Kosovo that has a very clear goal of joining the EU, and we are very clear from what we expect from Kosovo and what country can get. We discussed it when I was in the region implementing the draft, and this implementation will be a major step forward. It will be in the interest of Kosovo”, she said.

The EU chief said it provides unique opportunities for each country to progress towards joining the Union.

And when we're in Kosovo and Serbia is important to us that we give each country unique opportunities to move forward towards the EU, from their activity and contribution”.
