Moldova is advancing faster than Ukraine in EU accession reforms, with the European Commission noting Moldova's ambitious goal to conclude negotiations by 2028. Ukraine, facing challenges due to the ongoing war, is urged to accelerate its reforms, particularly in the rule of law, to meet EU standards. The Commission has outlined a cautious roadmap for Ukraine, emphasizing limited objectives for 2027, while Moldova is expected to negotiate across more than 20 policy areas. Both countries applied for EU membership in 2022, but their paths are diverging as Moldova shows greater progress in meeting EU requirements.
