According to a poll conducted by
the European Council on Foreign Relations (ECFR), Europeans are
open to Ukraine's accession, despite the economic and security
risks. The poll also reveals strong support for Moldova and
Montenegro joining the EU. On the other hand, there is
widespread opposition to Turkey joining the EU, as well as cool
responses to the candidatures of Albania, Bosnia and
Herzegovina, Georgia, Kosovo, North Macedonia, and Serbia,
according to the ECFR. According to the poll, there is a clear
divide between 'old' and 'new' EU members on the timing of any
EU enlargement, with a prevailing view in Austria, Denmark,
Germany, and France that the EU should not be looking to add any
new member states at this time, compared to Romania and Poland,
where support for enlargement is strong.
