Forming a Powerful Coalition of Key States to Advance the EU’s Enlargement Strategy
Policy Paper
The prospect of a peace settlement in Ukraine has prompted a flurry of activity among the EU and member states on how to carry out enlargement. For now, the debate is contained among elites. But this will need to change.
Key ‘clusters’ of member states can begin to address this. They should work together to create a new approach to enlargement and tailor messages to voters.
To drive an accession framework suitable to the geopolitical and domestic challenges of today, a ‘Team Enlargement’ coalition of ten key EU states should come together.
