According to CoinMeta, since the Russia-Ukraine conflict, joining the European Union has been one of Ukraine's important goals, with the aim of completely breaking away from Moscow's influence. However, several diplomats and officials from EU member states interviewed by Reuters privately expressed caution, believing that Ukraine and the EU must overcome numerous obstacles before achieving this goal. The chairman of the European Stability Initiative, Gerald Knaus, stated that many political figures do not believe Ukraine will be able to join the EU within the next 10 years. In France and Poland, 57% of respondents oppose Ukraine joining the EU in the coming years, while in Germany this proportion is 59%. A diplomat pointed out that next year, multiple European countries will hold national elections, and governments may not have the time to promote or seek support for expanding the EU's membership at that time.
