Kos to meet opposition before authorities

A press release said that the Commissioner will meet with President Aleksandar Vucic, Prime Minister Djuro Macut and Parliament Speaker Ana Brnabic on Tuesday.

According to unofficial reports, the Slovenian commissioner will meet with parliamentary opposition officials on Wednesday before meeting with government officials.

Kos called for an easing of tension in Serbia and added that she is carefully watching the situation in Serbia.

Speaking at the Czech Business Forum on EU Enlargement on Monday, Kos said that Europe has a once in a lifetime opportunity to complete its unification but added that this requires a lot of work from the enlargement countries. “It requires leadership that embraces transformational reforms, and often it requires the ability to make difficult compromises. But things are moving faster than at any point in the last 15 years. It will also require a lot from our side. We will need to reflect on how our Union works. Our financing, our policies, and our decision making. It will require a lot of flexibility and creativity from Member States,” she said.
