Abstract

Russia’s ongoing invasion of Ukraine is the most severe challenge that the European Union faces. The EU has generally responded in a united and robust manner, overcoming the clash of national interests that had previously characterized its policymaking vis-à-vis Russia. The most transformative and significant decision that the EU has made is to treat Ukraine as a candidate for EU membership. However, cracks have appeared in the EU’s unity, and the enlargement process will be long and difficult—and it could be derailed if Ukraine’s territorial integrity is not restored. That will depend on increased European efforts and continued US military assistance to Ukraine, neither of which appear certain.

欧盟在乌克兰的战略考验

俄罗斯对乌克兰的持续入侵是欧盟面临的最严峻挑战。欧盟总体上以团结和有力的方式做出了回应，克服了以往欧盟对俄决策中存在的国家利益冲突。欧盟做出的最具变革性的重大决定是将乌克兰作为欧盟成员国的候选国。然而，欧盟的团结已经出现了裂痕，欧盟的扩大进程将是漫长而艰难的，如果乌克兰的领土完整得不到恢复，欧盟的扩大进程就可能脱轨。这将取决于欧洲是否加大努力以及美国是否继续向乌克兰提供军事援助，而这两者似乎都不确定。

期刊介绍： ACS Applied Bio Materials is an interdisciplinary journal publishing original research covering all aspects of biomaterials and biointerfaces including and beyond the traditional biosensing, biomedical and therapeutic applications. The journal is devoted to reports of new and original experimental and theoretical research of an applied nature that integrates knowledge in the areas of materials, engineering, physics, bioscience, and chemistry into important bio applications. The journal is specifically interested in work that addresses the relationship between structure and function and assesses the stability and degradation of materials under relevant environmental and biological conditions.
