Von der Leyen Backs Montenegro's 2028 EU Entry Goal
Original: Von der Leyen Supports Montenegro’s 2028 EU Membership Target
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has expressed support for Montenegro's target of joining the European Union by 2028. Montenegro is widely seen as the frontrunner among the Western Balkan candidates for EU membership, and her endorsement gives fresh momentum to its accession path. Enlargement remains a key topic in EU politics, with the bloc under pressure to integrate the Western Balkans and respond to geopolitical shifts in Europe.
Why now: Enlargement is high on the EU agenda and von der Leyen's endorsement of a specific 2028 date is a significant signal for the Western Balkans' accession process.
