A representative of Serbia’s Student List will speak at the European Union’s enlargement forum in Brussels on November 15 and 16. The forum’s program lists the group among the speakers alongside political leaders from EU candidate countries.
EU Enlargement Commissioner Marta Kos will host the forum. The announced participants include Macedonian Prime Minister Hristijan Mickoski, Montenegrin Prime Minister Milojko Spajić and Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama. Moldovan President Maia Sandu is also on the program.
The Student List will take part after its election victory in Serbia. The country’s new parliament is due to convene on November 17, the day after the forum ends. The program has yet to name the group’s speaker.
The two-day forum will bring together government officials, civil society representatives, entrepreneurs and young people to discuss how the EU and candidate countries can prepare for enlargement. Ahead of the event, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen called enlargement a long-term investment in Europe’s security and urged the bloc to move faster while assessing candidates on their progress.
