Deutche Welle report on EU meet The European Union will consider a proposal made by Germany on Thursday that would hold out the prospect of EU membership to the poor countries of the Balkans, as part of a long-term plan to stabilise the region. Germany, which holds the rotating presidency of the Union, presented a paper to EU foreign ministers meeting in Luxembourg. The German paper, presented by Foreign Minister Joschka Fischer, said the eventual negotiation of a settlement of the Kosovo conflict presented an opportunity for a fresh start in the Balkans, demanding a long-term nurturing of democracy, free markets and links with Western international institutions. Stressing the importance of reaching peace with Belgrade, the paper said lasting stability in the Balkans could never be achieved, while Yugoslavia remained an international outsider.
