“Well-developed is a step towards meeting the EU’s accession criteria. The Western Balkans’ projects are progressing too slowly to connect the region to the core EU transport network by 2030. The European Commission should improve the selection, monitoring and sustainability of projects, and enhance the visibility of EU-funded transport projects in the region.”

— Laima Andrikienė, Member of the European Court of Auditors

⚠️ Western Balkan countries are set to miss the 2030 deadline to complete the core European transport network in the region because of implementation delays and operational difficulties. Progress has been slowed by immature project selection and shortcomings in supervision. This is the conclusion of a new report by the European Court of Auditors.

Key points:
📌 Western Balkan countries committed to completing the core EU transport network by 2030
📌 The European Commission paid over €500 million to transport projects in the region
📌 EU auditors found project delays, weak monitoring, and sustainability issues
