  1. There is no "junior membership", but, every 3rd country which would like to join the EU, has to apply by fulfilling the Copenhagen Criteria FIRST (which would be monitored by the EUs Commission), if NONE of the EU27 member states vetos the UK/country, joining the EU, only then the 35 chapters have to be fulfilled/implemented properly (which would be monitored by the EUs Commission), if not done properly, joining process stops instantly, which could take decades. The UK is moving away from fulfilling the Copenhagen Criteria at the moment. EUs joining criteria = article 49 TEU Greetings from the EU27 🖐

  2. It's not up to the UK, to decide, but a decision of the EU27 member states to decide, which country can join the EU and when... EUs joining criteria = article 49 TEU Greetings from the EU27 🖐

  3.  @tcsam73  😊 Forgot to say, ALL NEW EU member states have to join the Schengen area and adapt the €/Euro, as soon as the new EU member state has a stabile enough economy. Brexit has created huge damage to the British economy/citizens... To cut off a country from the worlds largest SM right in front of your doorstep isn't the most clever idea... Opposit to the USA, which is one country with its states, the EU27 are a pragmatic, rule based organisation/union of 27 independent and souvereign countries with their democratic elected Parliament (with PR) and its MEPs working on behalf of the democratic elected EU27 member states Gvts and their 450ish million citizens. The EUs SM is there to benefit the 450ish million EU citizens, so every citizen can work, live, move, study, travel, trade as if living in ones own country...frictionless trading, tarrifs free...ALL of that the UK threw under the bus.... As you're US citizen = big country, you know, that it helps, when doing "trading deals etc".... same goes for the EU27 with its 450ish million citizens = soft power, like for trading deals, the UK is on its own now, not the best idea in todays times... The EU27 are a peace project based on solidarity and respect for all EUropean member states... "United in diversity, all for one, one for all, together we're strong", THAT are the EU27 😊 Greetings from the EU27 🖐 Edit typo/autocorrect

  5. Guy Verhofstadt is NOT talking as an EU official, but as a private person only...nobody over here in the EU27 is talking about that subject/Brexit etc, anymore...the EU27 have moved on... EUs joining criteria = article 49 TEU Greetings from the EU27 🖐 Edit typo/autocorrect
