European Council President Donald Tusk has praised Macedonia’s efforts to reconcile with its neighbors as it accelerates its bid to join the European Union, saying such efforts are needed across the Western Balkans and are “important” for Europe.
Speaking at a regional summit in Skopje on April 27, Tusk singled out the festering dispute between Serbia and Kosovo over Pristina’s declaration of independence 10 years ago, which Belgrade has never recognized.
