Brussels asks Ukraine for EU candidate status, albeit with conditions

Date:

The recommendations and arguments from Brussels will serve as the basis for the debate between heads of state or government at the summit on 23 and 24 June, in which the Twenty-seven will decide not only what to respond to the request for entry to the Ukrainian club, but also from Georgia and Moldova.

The European Commission proposed this Friday to grant Ukraine candidate status for accession to the European Union, although it believes it is setting a set of conditions that will set the basis for European leaders’ debate next week.

After examining Ukraine’s request in record time, the European executive has issued a favorable opinion recommending that Member States grant candidate status just one day after France and Germany expressed their unequivocal support during their visit to Kiev to grant candidate status.

The recommendations and arguments from Brussels will serve as the basis for the debate between heads of state or government at the summit on 23 and 24 June, in which the Twenty-seven will decide not only what to respond to the request for entry to the Ukrainian club, but also from Georgia and Moldova.

It will be in that debate of European leaders where these conditions are further outlined, the ‘roadmap’ in the words of French President Emmanuel Macron. That is, any decision of the twenty-seven on Ukraine’s candidate status must be taken unanimously.

Brussels drafted its opinion in record time, issuing an opinion in a month that normally takes almost a year, after Ukrainian authorities also responded with unprecedented agility to the technical questionnaires. Ukraine has applied to join the community club a few weeks after the Russian invasion ordered by Vladimir Putin on Feb. 24.
