EU’s top enlargement chief to visit Albania in February

January 14, 2025 – EU Commissioner Marta Kos is planning a trip to Albania in February as the country makes big steps toward joining the European Union.

Kos praised Albania’s progress, saying the country’s efforts should be a model for others. She said this year will bring more positive change in the EU enlargement process than in the past 10 years.

“Albania is on the right path,” Kos said, adding that Albania’s progress is impressive and should inspire other countries in the region.

Montenegro and Albania are leading the way, with Montenegro aiming to finish negotiations by 2026. Albania hopes to join by 2027. “We’re supporting these countries, but there’s still a lot of work ahead,” Kos warned.

Kos will also visit Montenegro soon, seeing it as another country making fast progress. She emphasized that once countries meet the EU’s criteria, member states need to let them move forward.
