On 21 April, Commissioners Hahn and Commissioner Bulc hosted in Brussels the meeting of the six Prime Ministers from the Western Balkans. The meeting in Brussels is a follow-up of previous Western Balkan ministerial meetings held in Pristina on the core transport network for the region. The Brussels meeting confirmed the agreement of the core network through a joint statement and discussed concrete ways which would help implement the core transport network. In particular, the six Prime Ministers noted that the core network in the European Union links all EU capitals, main economic centres and major EU ports. For this reason, they acknowledged that extending it to the Western Balkans would allow speeding up policy and regulatory reforms and concentrate efforts and investments on key corridors and interconnectors.

The Joint Statement is available here.
