EU must reform before enlargement: Metsola

(ANSA) - BELGRADE, MAR 29 - "We have had this discussion in the Conference on the Future of Europe for the past five years, even before the war. For me, who is from Malta, enlargement is always a successful project; this year marks the 20th anniversary. However, the EU must reform itself if it is to function with 32, 33, or 35 countries - but political will and courage are required," said Roberta Metsola, president of the European Parliament, during an interview with Corriere della sera about EU enlargement, a process that could bring the EU to 35 member states, including Ukraine, Moldova, Georgia, and the Western Balkans.
