“The issue of the accession process of the Western Balkans<\/b> has been of particular concern to both Europe<\/b> and Greece<\/b> lately.” Foreign Minister George Gerapetritis<\/b> stressed in a statement on the occasion of his participation in the Ministerial Meeting<\/b> of the “Group of Friends of the Western Balkans”, which is taking place today in Bratislava<\/b>.<\/p>\n
As he said, “the accession perspective of the Western Balkans<\/b> is of vital importance<\/b> both for the peoples of the Western Balkans and for the European Union<\/b> itself, a larger, stronger and more resilient European Union, which will include all peoples, especially the Western Balkans, which have a history of hardship,<\/b>a history of nationalism, wars, conflicts”.<\/p>\n
“It is extremely important to be able to encourage this process<\/b>, within the framework, of course, of the criteria set by the law of the European Union itself: respect for the European acquis, absolute respect for international law and good neighbourly relations. Greece has taken an extensive initiative. It is the country which is pushing ahead<\/b> with the accession of the Western Balkans. The agreement, the Delphi Declaration<\/b> has already been signed,” he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
