EU plans enlargement to 30 new members under new von der Leyen policy

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen is reportedly preparing a new enlargement policy that would set a common path for all future EU members, with plans to expand the bloc by up to 30 new countries. The proposal, as reported by Serbian outlet Blic, is in early stages and lacks official confirmation. If realized, it would significantly reshape EU integration dynamics, particularly for Western Balkan states like Serbia and Montenegro.
