Von der Leyen Backs Montenegro's 2028 EU Membership Target
Original: Von der Leyen Supports Montenegro’s 2028 EU Membership Target
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has voiced support for Montenegro's ambition to join the European Union by 2028. The Balkan country is widely seen as the frontrunner among EU candidate states, having advanced furthest in accession negotiations. The endorsement signals momentum for EU enlargement in the Western Balkans, though meeting the 2028 target would require Montenegro to complete remaining reforms and all member states to ratify accession.
Why now: Montenegro's fast-tracked EU accession bid is a live enlargement topic as the EU weighs further expansion in the Western Balkans.
