EU officials hail a record year for enlargement policy
Original: This is a “record year for EU enlargement policy”
European Union officials are describing 2024 as a "record year for EU enlargement policy", a claim highlighted by the European External Action Service. The statement points to renewed momentum in bringing candidate countries toward membership, an agenda that has regained urgency since Russia's invasion of Ukraine pushed the bloc to deepen ties with the Western Balkans, Ukraine, Moldova and other hopefuls. Accession talks and reforms have advanced faster than in previous years.
Why now: EU enlargement has regained political momentum, and officials are promoting the progress made this year.
