Abstract

The paper deals with the idea that the global economic crisis’ challenges for the EU economy are too powerful and the enlargement process has to be very carefully managed. Even that there are five candidate countries and an acceding country, the socio-economic situation across the EU27 and, especially, across the Euro area are not able to support new entrances as Member States. The analysis in the paper is based on the latest official data and is supported by pertinent statistical tables and diagrams. The main conclusion of this analysis is a pessimistic one. We consider that the main objective of the EU27 is to survive and to support a real economic recovery, nowadays. The enlargement has to continue only after the above objectives’ achievement.
