The President of Slovenia, Borut Pahor, paid a visit to Kosovo where he met with the President of Kosovo, Vjosa Osmani.

His visit to Kosovo comes after the publication of some “non-paper” documents that are thought to have come from the Slovenian state, namely the office of Prime Minister Janez Jansha.

Pahor told a news conference that the Brdo-Brijun summit to be held on Monday would urge EU member states to continue enlarging the European Union in the Western Balkans in order to avoid the idea of ​​changing borders. He said the first test for the EU on the European integration of the Balkans will be on Monday.

“EU enlargement is a necessity, and that the EU sees this space as a whole. This would strengthen the confidence of the people in the European perspective, stimulate the political will for reforms and avoid the risk of thinking about border changes between states,” Pahor said.

“In the second half, Slovenia will lead the EU presidency, I would like to see some positive moves in this direction. The first test will be Monday’s meeting in Brdo-Brijun. Before the start of the summit, we will have the last talks and the meeting will be a message for the EU and the Balkan countries”, added Pahor.

Meanwhile, President Vjosa Osmani thanked Slovenia for its support to Kosovo, noting that Kosovo has met the criteria and that the EU should lift visas for Kosovo.

But what did the Slovenian “Non Paper” plan envisage? Slovenian media published a “non-paper” document, which said that the Slovenian Prime Minister, Janez Jansha, had sent it to the European Council. The document discussed Jansha’s alleged proposal to redraw borders in the Western Balkans as a way to resolve the chronic problem between the six countries in the region. According to the content published in the media, it is about the redefining of the border of Kosovo and Serbia, and the possibility of secession of the entity of the Serbian Republic from Bosnia and Herzegovina, the unification of the Albanian majority parts of Montenegro and North Macedonia Albania, as well as the unification of a part of Bosnia and Herzegovina, ie western Herzegovina with Croatia.
