The main challenges to the Western Balkan (WB) countries’ transition process include political instability, corruption, inter-ethnic tension, organised crime and autocratic tendencies. These factors have kept the region susceptible to negative influence. How can the EU and its allies support WB countries in dealing with these issues and prevent non-democratic countries from further increasing their influence?
