Accession in example sentence
Both Romania’s recent treaty with Hungary (in which each country recognized, at long last, their common border), the campaign of the winning coalition led by current president Emil Constantinescu (which ousted Iliescu), and the various economic and diplomatic steps taken ever since Constantinescu and his allies came to power, are geared to Romanian accession to NATO, which is presented as a solution to all the country’s ills.This rejection by NATO, for which possibility the government made no effort to prepare the population, will likely be seen as a national humiliation, a sign that no matter how virtuously they behave Romanians will never be considered as real EuropeansA more prudent strategy is that pursued by Ukraine, which tries to keep good relations with Russia while giving priority to relations with the West.
