#NorthMacedonia #Albania - 'I think it was a historic mistake' Juncker #EUCO #Enlargement

Prime Minister of North Macedonia Zoran Zaev and President of the European Commission Jean-Claude Juncker
Both President of the European Council, Donald Tusk and President of the European Commission, Jean-Claude Juncker, both expressed their disappointment that the European Council (18 October) could not agree on opening accession talks with Albania and North Macedonia. Juncker described it as a historic mistake, while President Tusk said that while both countries were ready to start talks, the EU member states were not. Tusk also said that in his opinion it was a mistake.
EU Reporter interviewed Prime Minister Zaev earlier in the year.
