If you ask me, this is just meaningless virtue signaling.

You might have heard that the EU has awarded a candidate status to Georgia and began ascension talks with Ukraine and Moldova. I could not believe my ears. But as they say in Russia, promises don’t mean marriage. Let’s explain.
These are completely meaningless bureaucrat proclamations designed to annoy Russia. It is similar to accepting Finland into NATO. They wanna say: “See Putler, you have no power here.” But while at least Finland managed to join NATO, Sweden kind of weaseled out of it for the time being but might also join, the EU will likely not be able to accept Georgia, let alone Ukraine and Moldova.
Lets start with Georgia, Georgia has GDP per capita 4 times lower than Latvia. If Georgia joined tomorrow, half of Georgia would pack up and leave for Western countries. They will vacate space for wild animals and maybe Russian Twitch streamers. I still remember how I visited Georgian Svaneti region, and saw these Georgian mountain men asking Belgian hikers if they can take them to Belgium. Because I know both English and Russian, I acted as a translator.
This tells me, Georgia’s path to the EU will be very long. But don’t worry, Turkey has been a candidate for membership for two decades, so they still have time. There is however another aspect to the Georgian question. Georgia has two breakaway regions that have Russian troops stationed there, and are recognized by Russia as independent states. Now there is a nation in the EU, which has territorial disputes. And that would be Cyprus.
Now, in the Cyprus case, I heard a deal was hammered out through the UN. My Turkish friend also noted that North Cypriots have an easier time entering the EU. So, will a deal be hammered out with Russia? Will the Abkhaz have an easier time entering the EU? You know how absurd this all sounds? And the same can be said of Ukraine and Moldova, there the EU bureaucrats didn’t find enough cojones to award a candidate status. Ukraine is literally in the middle of a war, and Moldova is an economic basket case.
Therefore my friends, this is another Finland in NATO moment. An attempt by Western libshits to annoy their archnemesis, Vladimir Putin.
