Cross-Border Links: North Macedonia has tendered construction of its railway corridor to Bulgaria, backed by a €149 million EU grant, but funding questions and a border tunnel could delay a continuous connection until the early 2030s. EU Accession: European leaders reaffirmed enlargement as a strategic priority, while stressing that candidates must keep up reforms, particularly on the rule of law, and that accession remains merit-based.
