Should Russia join the EU ?

Question

I'm not sure if they'd want to, but they seem isolated at the moment, and are behaving in slightly paranoid ways. With no allies, they might ally with the likes of Iran, and get more beliigerent. They have more right to enter the EU than Turkey.

Answer 1

I thought they were already in the EU, or is that NATO?
Dunno, I think they were starting to thaw out, until Putin.

They're acting weird again especially to my country ENGLAND.

Answer 2

never, regardless no remember if the ecu contributors opt for it or no longer. Russia constantly had its very own way and not in any respect observed the gang. or perhaps although NATO doesn`t help in any respect to improve suitable point of have confidence between Russia and eu it is not a controversy. in certainty, the two eu and Russia will in basic terms earnings from reasonable cooperation and non violent community. Partnership and mutual appreciate is the only way of valuable coexistence-to get merry isn't nessesary.

Answer 3

I sincerely hope not. But from past history the EU is not, in my opinion, known for making good, sensible or practical decisions.
I do not think that any nation has the right to join the EU. They must apply to join and then be invited to join after fulfilling many supposedly stringent conditions. These conditions were/are supposed to include democratic,human rights, and many economic factors. I do not think that Russia could fulfil any, but thereagain, neither do several countries already included in the EU.

Answer 4

the eu should just buggar off cos i think its pathetic. how is a constitution that gives brussels control over uk borders and immigration good or fair? if the eu thing is screwing the uk over its probably screwing others over too. scrap the thing and everyone fend for themselves and just have international trade conferences and quarterly world peace conferences to discuss world wide issues. there should be nothing to link anyone cos once we go down that road, someone wants to control it all. uk was great years ago. in years to come the world will look on when we fall.
if anything russia are wiser for staying out. wish our idiot of a former pm had done the same.

Answer 5

Yes they should be able to join the eu and so should turkey. any country in europe even partly in europe should have the option to join as long as they conform to the EU standards

Answer 6

Only if Russia agrees to be split into European Russia and Asian Russia. Honestly have you checked a map recently? Russia is a pretty sizeable percentage of the world. The EU couldn't handle it anyway.

Answer 9
