Nikos Dendias and Donika Gërvalla-Schwarz on June 4, 2021.
Greece has consistently supported the accession of Western Balkan countries to the European Union, Greek Foreign Minister Nikos Dendias said from Pristina on Friday after meeting with Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Donika Gërvalla-Schwarz.
“The government of Kyriakos Mitsotakis remains firmly supportive of this commitment,” Dendias said, “and we have assumed several initiatives in this direction.”
Dendias – who was received earlier by the president and met with the Prime Minister of the breakaway Serbian province of Kosovo – expressed Greece’s strong support of a first intergovernmental conference between Albania and North Macedonia, ideally within June.

Czech Foreign Minister Tomáš Petříček has condemned the detention of opposition politician Alexey Navalny as a “politically motivated act”, adding that he wants to bring up the matter at the next EU Council of Foreign Ministers meeting.
Charles Michel, President of the European Council, also sharply condemned Navalny’s arrest as “unacceptable” calling for his immediate release.
The Russian opposition leader was arrested at passport control upon his return to Moscow from Berlin, where he recovered from an assassination attempt with a weapons-grade nerve agent.
Russian authorities claim his absence constitutes a violation of the parole terms specified in a felony conviction in 2014 for embezzlement and money laundering.
