[Matteo Mecacci @MatteoMecacci]

At @EPIK_Ukraine, we are excited to begin collaboration with @ecfr to develop innovative and creative policy solutions for two of the most urgent geopolitical challenges: 1 - Promoting Ukraine's EU accession; 2 - Enhancing European security.

Thank you @markhleonard, @carlbildt, @FLojdquist, and @HallgrenJakob for making this possible.

We look forward to welcoming @ecfr visiting fellows to Kyiv!

[European Policy Institute in Kyiv (EPIK) @EPIK_Ukraine]

As the first candidate country pursuing accession while fighting a major war on European soil, Ukraine occupies a central place in debates about Europe's future security.
In his op-ed for @Euractiv, @MatteoMecacci suggests looking at the EU enlargement debate in a new light — through the lens of European security.

[European Policy Institute in Kyiv (EPIK) @EPIK_Ukraine]

We are pleased to start cooperation with @ecfr, bringing together expertise, networks, and insights from the region to strengthen research and policy thinking on the issues that define European future.

By connecting different perspectives and fostering closer exchange, this cooperation will help generate more informed analysis and practical ideas at a critical moment for the continent.

Looking forward to working together 🤝

[ECFR @ecfr]

Thanks to ECFR Co-Chair @carlbildt who joined us for the signing today and the Stockholm Centre for Eastern European Studies (@SCEEUS_UI) thanks to whose support this memorandum was made possible.

Delighted that my latest analysis is out with @SCEEUS: "Fading Power? The EU's Strategic Dilemmas in the South Caucasus": Rather than treating values and interests as competing priorities, the EU should focus on building leverage.

Russian surveillance in the occupied areas of Ukraine works as a tight mix of digital interception, physical monitoring and state‑controlled apps that track people’s communications, movements and identities.
