Considering the questionable status of Kosovo, and the fact that EU's governing bodies have not specified that Kosovo has got a different path of European integrations from Serbia (AFAIK, they only mention in documents, even after the majority of Member States recognized its independence, that they acknowledge Serbian sovereignty and territorial integrity), this article is not NPOV. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.110.244.16 ( talk) 03:17, 22 January 2011 (UTC)
Since there can be no reasonable question of "accession" right now, I propose this article should be renamed to Kosovo and the European Union. Under this title, the article should address
"Accession" can become a section once Kosovo has official candidate status. Otherwise we can as well create Accession of Belarus to the European Union, with a content of "none." -- dab (𒁳) 13:15, 9 June 2011 (UTC)
Wait, so perhaps I shouldn't just believe anything people post to Wikipedia talkpages? So the EU considers "Kosovo under UN Security Council Resolution 1244" as a "potential candidate", but "Kosovo under UN Security Council Resolution 1244" is not the "Republic of Kosovo", it is "Kosovo under UN administration". UNSCR 1244 says that
The EU thus includes this notion of Kosovo (not the Republic declared eight years after the fact) under its "potential candidate". Since the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia doesn't even exist anymore, it is unclear what the EU website is implying when it says that "Kosovo within the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia is a potential candidate". Whatever this is supposed to mean under current circumstances, it certainly doesn't mean what you seem to think it does. Basically, it just means "yeah, the place is in a mess, we just keep calling it 'potential candidate' and keep throwing money at it until the situation improves". -- dab (𒁳) 08:49, 10 June 2011 (UTC)
Kosovo is poor, but the infobox makes it look even poorer than it actually is, since it displays PPP GDP in absolute terms, rather than on a per capita basis. Absolute GDP figures can be meaningful when assessing a state's total economic "weight", but in this case a per capita comparison would be more meaningful. A reader might find it handy to learn, at a glance, that Bulgaria's per capita PPP GDP is ~€10,500 compared to Kosovo's ~€5,500 or Croatia's ~€13,000. Comparisons with such "peers" are more meaningful -- although they still make Kosovo look really poor in comparison. (Probably because it is!) Thoughts? If no objections, I may add it myself. 69.204.48.188 ( talk) 14:04, 26 May 2014 (UTC)

My contribution around the above:
It is undoubted that Kosovo must be recognized by all current EU member states before Kosovo may become a member. The situation where there is one prospective member state which is not recognized by all the others is hardly conceivable since principles of mutual recognition and sincere cooperation are at the heart of the EU legal order. [1]
Was deleted. Nowhere in the piece is the basic point that if Kosovo is to be a member, it will first have to be recognised by all EU members explained. There was no understandable reason given for taking out the above. Where is this addressed in the piece? Frenchmalawi ( talk) 11:11, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
Copying in User:Danlaycock who reverted the piece so he can explain how the point is addressed and why the contribution was reverted. Frenchmalawi ( talk) 11:13, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
“I don't think that it's every been as explicitly stated as you have written.“ I don’t follow the above. I am quoting a secondary source who state it as I have written. The statement is included in the following secondary sources: “Agreement on Comprehensive Normalization of Relations between Serbia and Kosovo : political and legal analysis / [authors Đorđe Bojović, Nikola Burazer]. - Belgrade : Centre for Contemporary Politics, EU-RS Think Tank, 2018” Can you explain what you mean when you say it has not been as explicitly stated as I have written. Are you suggesting that it’s s not stated that way in the source I’ve given? Or are you saying that the source is not an acceptable source? In my opinion, it’s beyond doubt that Kosovo could not join if it was not recognised as a state by all of the EU27. This has nothing to do with Serbia. This is about the recognition of Serbia by the 27 states that are already EU members. In any event, my opinion does’t come into it. As I’m just going on a secondary source that says this.

User:Danlaycock - His name appears as TDL but apparently that’s not his user name (above response refers). Thanks. Frenchmalawi ( talk) 20:00, 3 May 2020 (UTC)
