POZNAN, Poland (Reuters) - Poland and Germany on Friday called for continued progress on European Union membership talks for western Balkan states hoping to join the bloc, rejecting France's position that it shouldn't accept more members until it handles its own issues.
"I share (French) President Macron's view that the EU's working mechanisms must be improved," German Chancellor Angela Merkel said at a press conference concluding the Western Balkan summit in Poznan, Poland.
