The admission of new members previously excluded as candidates signaled a new European Union strategy to extend its values and norms. The article considers that the critical juncture of the new geopolitical crisis in Eastern Europe following the war against Ukraine brings a new trajectory for the objective of accession negotiations. This is exemplified by the European Union&#8217;s decision to grant candidate status to Moldova and Ukraine, bringing a new reflection on the role of candidacy as a strategy of approximation and influence, rather than merely a stage in the accession process defined by strict criteria and predictable timelines for full compliance.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="pt"><p><![CDATA[Resumo A expansão da União Europeia para leste - fortemente marcada pela adesão de ex-repúblicas soviéticas, o lançamento da Política Europeia de Vizinhança (2004) e da Parceria Oriental (2009) - assistiu ao desmantelamento de antigos equilíbrios geopolíticos. A admissão de novos membros antes excluídos como candidatos marcou uma nova estratégia da União Europeia para expandir os seus valores e normas. O artigo considera que a conjuntura crítica da nova crise geopolítica na Europa de Leste, na sequência da guerra contra a Ucrânia, traz uma nova trajetória para o objetivo da negociação de adesão, representado pela decisão de conceder à Moldova e à Ucrânia o estatuto de candidatos a membros da União Europeia, assim como uma nova reflexão sobre o papel da candidatura como estratégia de aproximação e influência e não apenas como etapa de adesão em que se espera rigor e prazos previsíveis para o seu pleno cumprimento.]]></p></abstract>
