Belgium’s Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs, Maxime Prévot, is set to visit Kosovo on Wednesday, where he will hold official talks with Prime Minister Albin Kurti.
According to the Office of the Prime Minister, the meeting will take place at 13:30 at the Government building in Prishtina, with media allowed to capture footage before the talks begin.
Prévot’s visit is part of a broader diplomatic tour across the Western Balkans, which includes stops in Montenegro, Serbia, North Macedonia, and Bosnia and Herzegovina. He is also expected to visit Albania at a later stage, where he plans to open a Belgian embassy in Tirana.
Ahead of the visit, the Belgian foreign minister emphasized the importance of maintaining a credible EU integration perspective for the Western Balkans. However, he stressed that the process remains strictly merit-based.
“We expect them to have the courage to implement the necessary reforms, particularly in the areas of rule of law, the judiciary, anti-corruption efforts, and regional reconciliation,” Prévot said.
The visit comes amid intensified EU engagement with Western Balkan countries, as Brussels seeks to reinforce reform commitments and maintain momentum in the enlargement process.
