Watch: Forget idealism—the multi-billion euro reason the EU wants the Western Balkans in the bloc

At the EU-Western Balkans summit in Montenegro, top officials are debating the push to include Western Balkan nations in the EU, despite the bloc's current challenges managing its 27 members. The real motive behind this push is economic: Brussels sees substantial financial incentives in integrating these regions, which could bring billions of euros in investment and development funds. This move signifies a strategic economic pivot rather than a purely idealistic expansion, reflecting a calculated approach to future economic stability and growth.
