The Commission has taken note of the Joint Declaration[1] following the 18 March 2025 meeting of Defence Ministers of Albania, Croatia, and Kosovo[2], which is a non-binding document. The Commission refers the Honourable Member to the Albania, Kosovo and Croatia authorities for any further query related to their Joint Declaration.
In 2023, Kosovo and Serbia reached an Agreement on the path to normalisation[3], which rests on two key pillars of international relations: good neighbourly relations between parties and the principle that neither of the two can represent the other in the international sphere or act on its behalf.
The Commission refers the Honourable Member to the relevant Member States authorities for questions on individual support of Member States to Kosovo.
