[EN ANGLAIS] Can the EU Risk Excluding Western Balkans? Case: North Macedonia

En ligne, Strasbourg

Entrée libre

Organisé par MeetEU

Russia and China are actively vying for influence in the Western Balkans, where five countries strive to join the EU. Despite strong public support for EU membership, frustration grows as strict admission criteria slow progress in these candidate countries.

To help us understand these dynamics, we’re joined by Mr. Aleksandar Kržalovski, Director of the Macedonian Center for International Cooperation (MCIC). MCIC is a civil society organization focused on advancing North Macedonia’s EU accession and international integration. Mr. Kržalovski will share with us the intricacies of the process as well as the hopes and frustrations of his home country’s citizens.

LET'S MAKE EUROPE A
BETTER PLACE

United in diversity – that’s the motto we share at MeetEU! Since April 2020, we have been organizing weekly events with Members of the European Parliament, European Commission representatives, EU activists and scientists. At our events, participants can discuss their ideas directly with decision-makers and experts.

Our mission is to bring EU citizens closer to EU politics. Our event participants join from all over Europe. We all come from different backgrounds. But once a week, we come together with one goal: to share perspectives and make Europe a better place.

MeetEU is a project run by volunteers and based in the beautiful city of Strasbourg.
