DESCRIPTION:The Open Balkan initiative is a regional integration agreement
  between countries of the Western Balkans\, presented as a reaction to the
  slowing down of the process of European Integration for the six aspiring 
 countries: Albania\, Serbia\, North Macedonia and Montenegro - confirmed a
 s candidates for membership - and Bosnia Herzegovina and Kosovo - potentia
 l candidates. Three of them - Albania\, Serbia and North Macedonia - have 
 signed agreements to open their national borders to each other's citizens 
 and products from 1 January 2023\, without restrictions. These three count
 ries believe that this economic zone will both prepare them for membership
  of the European Union and also offer an active way forward in response to
  the delay in obtaining EU membership. This panel brings together key prot
 agonists to look at the issues in greater depth.\n\nSpeakers:\nDritan Abaz
