The video conference she took part in, with the foreign ministers of Greece, Romania, Slovenia, North Macedonia, Albania, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro and Kosovo, focused on the social and economic consequences of Covid-19 for the Balkans. The foreign ministers agreed on setting up a regional health network for the treatment of patients and the safe restoration of tourism. With regard to transport, the participants reached the decision that the “green corridors” connecting the EU with the Western Balkans must remain open after the crisis.
