W niniejszym artykule zbadano współczesną dynamikę towarzyszącą rozszerzeniu UE oraz szybki impet, który został wywołany wydarzeniami z 24 lutego 2022 roku. Aby zgłębić ten temat, w artykule przyjrzano się podobnym, choć odrębnym ścieżkom Bośni i Mołdawii do UE oraz zbadano, w jaki sposób dostosowują się te kraje do perspektywy przystąpienia w kontekście ewentualnego przyspieszonego rozszerzenia. Dzięki zastosowaniu analizy treści unijnych i krajowych dokumentów politycznych związanych z rozszerzeniem UE opublikowanych po 24 lutego 2022 r., a także wniosków zebranych na podstawie indeksów, raportów uzupełniających i komentarzy niezależnego społeczeństwa obywatelskiego, w artykule wskazano istotne luki między własną oceną UE dotyczącą postępu i realiów wewnętrznych w Bośni i Hercegowinie oraz w Mołdawii. W związku z tym, w artykule zidentyfikowano i omówiono cztery szczególnie problematyczne obszary, wspólne dla obu państw, które stanowią potencjalne „punkty sporne” stojące na drodze ich ścieżek przystąpienia do UE: polaryzacja, oligarchia i korupcja, odpowiedzialność i instytucje demokratyczne oraz prawa podstawowe i społeczeństwo obywatelskie. W artykule wysunięto tezę, że ze względu na problemy w tych obszarach drogi obu krajów do UE są „lepkie”, ale wciąż dalekie od „ugrzęźnięcia”.<br>This article is an outcome of a research project generously funded by a National Science Centre of Poland (NCN) grant ‘Domestic Barriers to the Pro-European Transformation of Moldova’ No. 2016/23/B/1155/03635<br>Kerry Longhurst – Ph.D., Jean Monnet Professor at the Collegium Civitas and a Head of the Institute for Political Science and International Relations.
