EU to assess internal changes for future enlargement

Original: EU to assess changes needed to prepare for future enlargement, says European Commission chief

European Commission chief Ursula von der Leyen said the EU will assess what internal changes are needed to prepare for future enlargement. The review will look at how the bloc's institutions, policies and decision-making must adapt before new members join. The announcement matters for candidate countries in the Western Balkans and Ukraine, whose accession hopes depend on the EU being able to absorb them.

Why now: Enlargement is a live political issue as Ukraine, Moldova and Western Balkan candidates push to join, raising questions about whether the EU can reform fast enough.
