2004 年 5 月，欧盟不仅增加了 10 个新成员国，还增加了几个新邻国。大约在同一时间，它开始充实欧洲睦邻政策（ENP），以规范欧盟与其新老邻国的关系，并确保新扩大的欧盟将被“朋友圈”所包围。 ENP 还应该避免进一步向东欧扩张。然而，ENP 的几个问题是显而易见的。它对邻国的要求很高，但只提供模糊的激励措施作为回报，这使得 ENP 不太可能实现其核心目标。此外，ENP 对于欧盟边界的终点在哪里含糊不清，而且很明显，这种含糊不清无助于促进东欧的改革。欧盟要么应该对进一步扩大说“不”，以便欧洲国家计划成为可预见的未来与邻国关系的框架，要么应该说“是”，最终允许特定数量的邻国进入，然后这些国家将退出欧洲国家计划。
In May 2004, the European Union acquired not just ten new member states but several new neighbours. At about the same time, it began to flesh out a European Neighbourhood Policy (ENP) to bring some order to the EU's relations with its old and new neighbours and to ensure that the newly enlarged EU would be surrounded by a ‘ring of friends’. The ENP is also supposed to stave off further enlargement to eastern Europe. However, several problems with the ENP are evident. It requires much of the neighbours and offers only vague incentives in return, making it unlikely that the ENP can meet its core objectives. Furthermore, the ENP is ambiguous about where the EU's borders will end, and it is already apparent that such ambiguity is not helping to foster reform in eastern Europe. Either the EU should say ‘no’ to further enlargement, so the ENP becomes the framework for relations with the neighbour for the foreseeable future, or it should say ‘yes’ to eventually letting in a specified number of neighbours which then move out of the ENP.
