The report adds many new paragraphs on foreign interference, media freedom, minority rights, and public administration. It strengthens calls for Kosovo's EU path, including visa liberalisation and membership applications. It updates the dialogue section to include mutual recognition and new calls on Serbia. It adds new requirements on labour, energy, environment, and digital alignment. The only formal change is a spelling correction.
