On Thursday, 2024-03-21, European Union leaders, including Head of the European Council Charles Michel, unanimously agreed to initiate membership talks with Bosnia and Herzegovina. This significant step towards EU integration highlights the EU's strategic interest in expanding its influence in the Balkans to counteract Russian presence. While the green light for accession talks represents a pivotal advancement for Bosnia and Herzegovina, EU officials emphasized the necessity for the country to implement further reforms to fully meet the bloc's membership criteria. The decision also underscores the EU's ongoing efforts to integrate Western Balkan countries, with Kosovo remaining the only country in the region without EU candidate status.
