Eduard Kukan: Time for the EU to Deal Fairly with the Western Balkans
Eduard Kukan defines himself as a ‘euro-optimist’ and believes that in seven years the EU might be “back to normal”. Elected to the European Parliament (EP) in 2009 (EPP group), he chairs the EP delegation for relations with South-East Europe and is a member of the EP Committee on Foreign Affairs. He spent most of his professional life as a diplomat, serving three terms as Slovakia’s Minister of Foreign Affairs. In our conversation on European future of the Western Balkans, he suggests that the V4 countries should not hesitate to coordinate their efforts.
