Original: EU seeks ways to make expansion more palatable to members
The European Union is searching for new approaches to make enlargement more acceptable to its member states, amid concerns that admitting new countries will strain budgets, institutions and public support. The push comes as the bloc weighs future accessions, including Ukraine and Western Balkan candidates, while some members remain skeptical about the costs and political consequences of a larger union.
Why now: Enlargement is a live debate as the EU weighs admitting Ukraine and other candidates against member-state concerns over cost and integration.
