EU just greenlit the next level of Ukraine’s membership quest
It turns out Brussels is actually moving faster than your average weekend plans, with all member states agreeing to unlock the sixth cluster for Ukraine.
So, the EU ambassadors just sat down in Brussels and decided it was time to move to the next stage of Ukraine's homework. They’ve officially agreed to open the 6th cluster, which covers foreign policy, defense, and trade.
Think of this as the part where Ukraine stops just showing up and starts aligning its entire playbook with the big dogs. And the kicker? Ukraine is already sitting at 98% alignment with EU foreign and security decisions. It’s basically like showing up to a test having already memorized the entire textbook while everyone else is still finding their pens.
Antonio Costa and the Ireland presidency are pushing this forward, proving that even bureaucratic machinery can sometimes shift into second gear. If this keeps up, the upcoming intergovernmental conference might actually be a productive meeting rather than just another coffee break.
Being this obedient is either the ultimate strategy or a very long-term survival plan.
