Cum ar putea Serbia să complice aderarea Ucrainei la Uniunea Europeană

Serbia's EU accession process may be linked to Ukraine's, as countries favoring Balkan expansion seek geographical balance. Ukraine has made slow progress in its EU negotiations, while Serbia's accession remains stalled since December 2021 due to concerns over rule of law and its ties to Russia. The European Commission has proposed opening Cluster 3 for Serbia, but opposition from several member states persists. The situation is complicated by the progress of other Balkan countries like Montenegro and Albania, which increases pressure on Belgrade. There are fears that the EU's expansion process could become more complex if the accession of Ukraine and Moldova is tied to Serbia's negotiations.
