“We welcome the briefing by the Special Representative of the Secretary-General for Kosovo, Mr. Michael Steiner, and we should like to express our most sincere appreciation for the work he has done to achieve full implementation of Security Council resolution 1244 (1999). The strong commitment of the European Union to the Western Balkans region was confirmed at the European Union-Western Balkans Summit, held at Thessaloniki on 21 June. On that occasion, the European Council - as we have recalled here - reaffirmed its determination to fully support the European perspective of the Western Balkan countries, which will become an integral part of the European Union family once they meet the established criteria.”

Since this is the first time that I have taken the floor under your presidency, Sir, allow me first to congratulate you on the assumption of your duties and to wish you success during your term of office.
