Some EU countries block Ukraine's rapid accession to the Union<\/h2>\n

France, Germany and a number of other EU countries have opposed the idea of Ukraine's accelerated accession to the EU. This is reported by the agency Reuters<\/strong><\/em> with reference to European diplomats.<\/p>\n

According to sources, Kyiv's desire to complete membership negotiations and join the EU by 2027 has met with a restrained reaction among some of the bloc's countries. Some governments consider this timetable too ambitious.<\/p>\n

Arguments of the EU countries<\/h3>\n

Among the main reasons for skepticism are fears about the possible rollback of reforms after Ukraine's accession to the EU<\/strong>, and corruption issues.<\/p>\n

European diplomats note that some member states insist that Kyiv must fully comply with all requirements to reform the judiciary, fight corruption and strengthen state institutions<\/strong> before the integration process is significantly accelerated.<\/p>\n

It is also noted that EU enlargement is a complex political process that requires unanimous support of all Member States<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Ukraine's position<\/h3>\n

Ukraine, for its part, is actively promoting the idea of faster integration into the EU. The Ukrainian government claims that the country is carrying out large-scale reforms even during a full-scale war and is counting on a political decision to speed up negotiations.<\/p>\n

Kyiv also emphasises that joining the European Union is a strategic goal of the state<\/strong>, The constitutional framework is enshrined in the Constitution.<\/p>\n

Context.<\/h3>\n

Ukraine was granted candidate status to join the European Union in 2022. In 2023, the EU officially agreed to start membership negotiations.<\/p>\n

However, full accession to the European Union requires the fulfilment of dozens of conditions and approval by all member states, which traditionally takes years.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
