"Mr President, I welcome the notion that ‘the Eastern Partnership should not hinder the European Union membership for neighbouring countries wishing to apply’, as it was stated in the report. The possible future membership incentive is an integral part of the Eastern Partnership as it forms the basis for a successful conditional approach.
Although the progress towards a completed democratic transition varies from country to country – in Belarus there have been only minor advances, while in Ukraine and Georgia, some significant steps have been taken – the European Union should always sustain the possibility for the Eastern Neighbourhood countries to accede to the EU, since the efforts to establish functional democracy, rule of law and respect of human rights can sometimes be exhausting to the point of relapse.
The primary objective of the European Neighbourhood and Partnership Instrument as well as the accession incentive vis-à-vis Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Moldova, Ukraine and Belarus is to ensure continuous progress towards consolidated democracies in those countries."@en1
