The Commissioner for Enlargement, Johannes Hahn, declared in an interview for Radio Free Europe that they expect the EU to decide before summer if they will open the accession negotiations for Albania and Northern Macedonia.

Hahn said that the judiciary reform in Albania needs to be rewarded.

When asked about the request made by the Netherlands for suspending the visa liberalization of Albania, Hahn said that the member countries will not undertake this initiative.

Hahn declared that the European Commission is trying to receive green light from the European Council for opening the accession negotiations.
