This is just the beginning of the path to the EU membership
On 23 June, Ukraine officially became a candidate for EU membership. Without exaggeration, it is a historical event of sacred meaning and geopolitical significance, as well as concrete pragmatic consequences.
In fact, the candidate status is important for Ukraine for many reasons. First, this is an act of EU’s strategic solidarity with Ukraine, which is of great importance in the context of Russian intervention. On the other hand, it is a clear signal to the aggressor, that is, a geopolitical verdict on the imperial reintegration plans of the “post-Soviet space”.
