Mickoski and other Western Balkan Leaders to Have Luncheon with von der Leyen

On Thursday (19 September), European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen will organise a luncheon with Western Balkan leaders, including PM Hristijan Mickoski, where they will discuss reform agendas in the frames of the Growth Plan.

Commission Spokesperson Ana Pisonero said on Wednesday that it would be a chance to consider relations and cooperation with countries in the region in the context of the Plan.

As she added, Brussels will evaluate the projects offered by each country individually for them to be potentially afterwards approved by the Commission.

During his visit to Brussels, Mickoski will also meet, among others, European Council President Charles Michel.
