  • The EU likes to underline that enlargement towards the east is a security priority. And indeed, since the war in Ukraine started, accession negotiations have begun with several countries, most of them in the Balkans.

    EU should only expand to Western Balkan countries (Bosnia, Serbia, Albania, Macedonia, Kosovo, Montenegro) that have been in the Enlargement process since early 2000s. Expanding EU to Ukraine, Georgia and Moldova is insane.

      Austrian here. All the cleaning ladies I meet are from the Balkans. Construction workers are 60% from some Slavic country. They are doing the jobs no Austrian wants to do. Because of wage dumping. Who is doing who a favour?

    Learn your lesson from Ukraine, stop interfering in the affairs of other nations. Especially when you can’t fight back if you need to😂

      When Ukraine and the EU sought closer ties with one another, how was that "interfering in the affairs of other nations", pray tell? It was Russia, like a spurned suitor, that interfered.
