Nicu Popescu: Germany’s new Ostpolitik (again)?

Nicu Popescu, a Moldova-born expert currently employed by the European Council on Foreign Relations in London, recently posted a blog entry on the www.euobserver.com website.

An excerpt:
"There might be an increasing sense that Ukraine, Moldova, and perhaps Belarus will “of course” join the EU. Though with two caveats: 1) in the long run (defined as 20-30 years), and 2) “this should happen at our own pace, not due to geopolitical considerations”. The language is still more positive than I ever heard in Germany."

The whole entry can be read here.
