EC President Charles Michel proposed setting a target date for the EU to get serious about admitting new members as Ukraine and other applicants press the bloc to consider their applications seriously. “I believe we must be ready — on both sides — by 2030 to enlarge,” he said at the Bled Strategic Forum in Slovenia, adding that EU leaders will discuss the topic at their next summit. Michel said leaders will take a stand on opening formal accession talks with Ukraine and Moldova and will also reengage on Bosnia’s prospects.
