European Commissioner for Enlargement Marta Kos has confirmed that Ukraine is prepared to begin negotiation clusters with the EU by the end of November, following the successful screening of its legislation for compliance with European standards. This development comes after extensive evaluations of Ukraine’s legal framework, which have shown alignment with EU regulations.
Kos highlighted that the screening process is a critical milestone, indicating that Ukraine meets the necessary criteria for advancing its membership aspirations. The European Council is now expected to make a decision on the matter, which could pave the way for formal negotiations. This move is seen as a major step forward in Ukraine’s integration into the European Union.
The announcement is likely to have implications for both Ukraine and the EU, with potential impacts on trade, political relations, and regional stability. As the deadline approaches, further developments are anticipated, which may influence the pace and scope of Ukraine’s EU accession process.
