A defining moment for Europe.
All EU countries have now agreed to open the first accession negotiations cluster with Ukraine and Moldova.
Today, we're launching talks on the backbone of the accession process: including justice, freedom, and fundamental rights.
We've seen the hard work these countries have put in, and we are rewarding it with a clear path forward.
Enlargement is our strategic choice. Our best investment in a shared future of peace, security and prosperity
Wikipedia has two articles about accession negotiations with Ukraine and Moldavia:

A very good step forward.
By the time all chapters are done, the war will be over and Transdnistria will be a regular part of Moldova.I wouldn't be so sure about that. My guess is that the frozen Transnistria conflict will remain frozen and Moldova will join with Transnistria remaining under occupation.
I'm more curious how the present war/occupation situation in Ukraine is going to fit in with EU's defense framework. I doubt that Ukraine will be allowed to claim a collective defense case for Putin's ongoing invasion. An approach that might work might be to exclude part of Ukraine from EU military

@EUCommission can you elaborate on how this is going to work?
