“Shameless Insult” Balkan Leaders Push Back Against Ukraine’s Fast-Track EU Bid | Times Now World

Balkan leaders have strongly opposed the European Union’s move to fast-track Ukraine’s membership bid, calling it unfair to long-standing candidates like Montenegro and North Macedonia. Croatian President Zoran Milanović labeled the decision “a shameless insult,” while Bulgarian President Rumen Radev warned that prioritizing Ukraine for geopolitical reasons could undermine the credibility of EU enlargement. Ukraine applied for membership in February 2022, soon after Russia’s invasion, but its accelerated candidacy has fueled tensions over fairness and the future of EU expansion. #tnworld #timesnowworld #worldnews #internationalnews #timesnews #newsworld ​Subscribe now: http://bit.ly/3VHIl37 Times Now World is your definitive source for comprehensive global news and analysis.
