Policy Paper | Enlargement on Hold: The Price Europe Pays

How can the EU enlargement process regain its lost momentum? And how can we learn from previous rounds of enlargement? These questions are answered by a group of authors together with EUROPEUM Institute senior researcher Jana Juzová in a new publication within the REWEU project.

The authors focus on three different scenarios of how the enlargement process could proceed and their potential impact on the economy, democracy and security of the applicant countries.

Which future scenario will bring the most benefits, and which one is associated with the greatest risks? And how can past experience influence the current integration efforts of Ukraine and Moldova? The answer is offered by an analytical publication based on data and experience from Central and Eastern Europe and the Western Balkans.
