The Balkans region is crucial to the future geopolitical configuration of the European Union and, in this regard, Croatia is the country that has made the greatest progress in the accession process. Europe could make a real difference in that region by acting as a real driving force through economic and political reforms. That is why I voted for the motion for a resolution, given the policy of integration and expansion toward the democracy and market economy of south-west Europe. It is my opinion that disrupting and/or impeding enlargement to embrace the Balkans will certainly not save the fate of the European economy. It is important, then, to see Croatia as a nation that will help the entire Union to open its doors to other countries in the region. It will thus play a strategic role as a forerunner of this new process of integration and development."@en1
