The author wrote that EU enlargement was moving forward, with four accession conferences involving Montenegro, Albania, Ukraine and Moldova in sight. They said the leading candidates were making progress and that their side was also delivering, adding that progress needed to go hand in hand with strategic alignment and respect for the rule of law, both of which they linked to security. https://t.co/mKMS8Dtj5L #Enlargement #Accession #RuleOfLaw #ME #AL #UA #MD
The author asked how Europe was preparing for a historic enlargement and said European Commissioner for Enlargement Marta Kos had presented a new EU enlargement strategy in Strasbourg. They described the geopolitical context as shaped by Russia’s aggression. https://t.co/nejz0HkH6U #UE #Élargissement #Géopolitique #EU #FR #RU
The author said discussions on enlargement with Commissioner Kos could not take place without addressing Georgia, which they identified as an EU candidate country. They called for targeted individual sanctions against Bidzina Ivanishvili, Irakli Kobakhidze, Shalva Papuashvili and other Georgian regime figures, whom they said were responsible for undermining. https://t.co/Lb4vTmL6om #Georgia #EUCandidate #Sanctions #GE
The author argued that EU enlargement was a geopolitical imperative and said Europe needed to prepare its institutions, uphold its standards and ensure a level playing field. They added that farmers should be protected where necessary during the transition, saying the aim was to make the EU stronger, not simply bigger.
The author said that, together with Member States, they had made more progress on enlargement in the previous two years than in the past two decades. They wrote that the Union should now prepare for expansion, and said a communication published that day set out an approach based on realism and pragmatism. https://t.co/WGTgwE4kFF #EUenlargement #Unity #Pragmatism #EU
The author compared NAFTA’s integration of Mexico into the US economy with the EU’s enlargement into Eastern Europe, writing that both expanded trade and investment but only the latter produced strong convergence. https://t.co/9Wp6y5daqi #IntegraciónEconómica #ComercioInternacional #NAFTA #MX #EU
I think this is very toxic for an alliance that relies on collective play. I believe this is about the US having favourites. I acknowledge that initiatives often come from smaller groups. I think these countries bring a certain desired mass — ground, air and maritime. I ask: why is the US picking some rather than others when this is not a policy exercise? I say that this introduces the notion that the US favours some allies and would be likely to defend those allies ahead of the rest. I believe it's probably the first time since NATO enlargement that there's a split between the US and the Baltics. We know that this US administration is far less fazed by Russian aggression. #NATO #Defense #Europe

Finland has a special place in the history of EU enlargement. In 1999, here in Helsinki, EU leaders set the Union on the path towards its biggest enlargement ever. Today, we are again faced with the dual challenge of preparing candidate countries for membership and our Union to https://t.co/L0YdNnvPoB #EUnenlargement #Finland #HelsinkiSummit #FI #EU
