"As an MEP and socialist, I welcome the communication from the Council and Commission on the visa regime for the three Western Balkan countries. It is a first definite step towards their integration into the European Union, a first achievement for future EU citizens in the Western Balkans. However, I also appreciate that the lack of any clear prospect in the form of a roadmap for Bosnia and Herzegovina, Albania and Kosovo must be a matter of utmost concern to us. I am not only talking about the disappointment among the general public, but particularly about the risk to political stability in the three countries. Above all, I am expecting the European Parliament and the newly formed European Commission to maintain a predictable schedule for integrating the Western Balkans into the European Union. It is the only way that we can fulfil the mandate which we were elected for: to unite Europe."@en1
