"A well-planned enlargement policy could prove to be a strategy for success in terms of the EU’s economic development. Since the first enlargement in 1973, the EU has kept growing. This policy has benefited the European Union as a whole. It has created the conditions for addressing global challenges, preventing conflicts, contributing to stability, stimulating reforms and consolidating peace. Any state which wants to become a member of the EU must commit to the values of freedom, equality, democracy and respect for human rights, as these values form the very foundations of the European Union. The attractive prospect of accession has a significant impact on the political, socioeconomic and cultural landscape of candidate countries. These countries must undergo an assessment process, in which they are judged on their own merits and their compliance with the set criteria. The Union is responsible for the ease of integration and for analysing the European aspirations of candidate candidates. However, we must be careful to ensure that the Union can successfully integrate new countries, which, in a context of economic and financial crisis, is a particularly sensitive issue."@en1
