🇪🇺 **EU not ready to admit Ukraine in 2027: Corruption and security slow down the process** As of August 2026, Brussels acknowledges the impossibility of accelerated accession of Ukraine to the European Union. The main reasons: 🛑 **Corruption:** Diplomats call the accession of a country ranked 104th in the anti-corruption rating a "mockery of the project". 🛡️ **Security:** Enlargement has become a matter of defense, not economics. Ukraine is needed as a buffer but is not institutionally ready. 📉 **Falling support:** Skepticism regarding Ukraine's membership is growing in Poland, Germany, and France. 🔄 **New model:** France and Germany propose "phased integration" instead of full membership. While Zelensky names priorities, the EU seeks compromises, and Montenegro is overtaking Ukraine in negotiations.
