As a "key step toward restoring trust," Kos highlighted the selection of members of the Regulatory Authority for Electronic Media (REM), stressing that all relevant stakeholders must be involved in the process.

She noted that EU membership brings benefits but also responsibilities and a commitment to shared values, including foreign policy alignment. "You cannot continue engaging with Russia as if nothing has happened," she said.

Kos also underscored the importance of dialogue between Belgrade and Pristina and the need for constructive regional policies.
