A defining moment for Europe. πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡ΊπŸ€πŸ‡²πŸ‡©πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦

All EU countries have now agreed to open the first accession negotiations cluster with Ukraine and Moldova.

Today, we're launching talks on the backbone of the accession process: including justice, freedom, and fundamental rights.

We've seen the hard work these countries have put in, and we are rewarding it with a clear path forward.

Enlargement is our strategic choice. Our best investment in a shared future of peace, security and prosperity

@EUCommission Before enlarging further, may I suggest removing all veto powers and replace them with qualified majority requirements? Even just statistically, unanimous agreements are always less probable as the set of voters increases. One stubborn participant and we're paralyzed.

@EUCommission should have been done right after Hungary had their new president.
