EU Commission floats new safeguards as bloc weighs expansion

Original: EU Commission floats new safeguards as bloc considers expansion

The European Commission has proposed new safeguards as the European Union weighs admitting new member states. The plan responds to concerns that enlargement could strain the bloc's institutions, budgets and decision-making. Details of the proposed measures remain limited, and the proposal now faces debate among member states and the European Parliament over how expansion should proceed.

Why now: Enlargement is a live EU policy debate and the safeguards plan raises questions about how the bloc would absorb new members.
