EU nations approve opening of enlargement talks with Ukraine and Moldova next week
European Union countries have formally approved the launch of accession negotiations with Ukraine and Moldova next week, another step in the two nations’ long journey to join the 27-nation bloc.
Belgium, which currently holds the presidency of the European Union, said member states have agreed on a negotiating framework, AP reported.
“This opens the way for launching the negotiations on Tuesday, 25 June, in Luxembourg,” the Belgian presidency said.
Following a positive assessment from the EU’s executive branch, EU leaders had already agreed last year that accession negotiations should start with both countries.
The process between the start of negotiations with Ukraine and its neighbour Moldova and their becoming members of the EU could take many years.
