The European Union gave its blessing on Friday for Ukraine and its neighbour Moldova to become candidates to join, in the most dramatic geopolitical shift to result from Russia’s invasion.

Leaders of EU countries are expected to endorse the decision at a summit next week.

When President Vladimir Putin ordered his “special military operation” to disarm and “denazify” Ukraine, one of his main objectives was to halt the expansion of Western institutions which he called a threat to Russia. But the ambition to extend the EU deep into the heart of the former Soviet Union amounts to a shift on par with the decision in the 1990s to welcome the ex-Communist countries of Eastern Europe.

But in Zelenskyy, 44, and Sandu, 50, Ukraine and Moldova both now have young pro-Western leaders with solid, recent electoral mandates, representing a generation that came of age outside the Soviet Union.
