(ANSA) - BELGRADE, 15 SET - "Integrating the Western Balkans is more than just an enlargement process; it is about uniting Europe and reaffirming its founding values—individual, political, and religious freedoms. This is central to the Central European Initiative's mission. Young people are central to this journey because they are not the future, but the present. We are building Europe now." CEI Secretary General Franco Dal Mas made this statement today at the South East Europe Observatory Forum. (ANSA).
