This procedure concerns the granting of candidate status to Ukraine, the Republic of Moldova, and Georgia. It signifies the formal recognition of their European aspirations and the beginning of a structured path towards potential EU membership.

The decision impacts these three countries by opening the door to closer political and economic ties with the EU. It also signals a broader geopolitical shift in Eastern Europe and the EU's commitment to its neighbourhood.
