EU plans probation period for new member states
Original: probation
The European Commission is floating a plan that would put new member states on a 15-year probation period before fully enjoying membership benefits, aimed at safeguarding against democratic backsliding. The proposal, reported by The Guardian and other outlets, is being read as a direct response to concerns over rule-of-law erosion under leaders such as Hungary's Viktor Orbán. Separately, probation departments in Ford County, Illinois and Nassau County, New York have also been in local news.
Why now: The EU's proposal for a 15-year probation period for new members is a significant institutional change being widely reported.
