"The inclusion of Kosovo in the stabilisation and association process (SAP), thanks to which it could benefit from EU assistance (Instrument for Pre-Accession Assistance, IPA) and an independent preferential trade system, would ensure that Kosovo does not remain on the sidelines of the EU’s strategy in the area of the Western Balkans. In its communication of October 2011 on the enlargement strategy, the Commission showed how the post-election period of adjustment prevented Kosovo from making substantial progress in terms of reforms. On the other hand, in its conclusions of 5 December 2011, the Council called upon Kosovo to implement the actions decided on to compensate for these failings. I agree and support the Commission’s intention to carry out a feasibility study for the stabilisation and association agreement between the EU and Kosovo. This commitment confirms the wish and commitment of the EU to carry forward the initiatives outlined in the General Affairs Council conclusions of December 2011 and, at the same time, shows that it can make a significant contribution in socio-political terms, which will be essential for reaching an agreement between Priština and Belgrade on the delicate issue of regional cooperation."@en1
