Ursula von der Leyen wants the EU expansion process to be faster to increase security and prosperity. Montenegro is considered the most promising candidate for EU membership by 2028.

The claims evaluated here touch on the EU's potential expansion and its implications. Ursula von der Leyen's call for faster admission processes is supported by evidence indicating EU's continuous consideration for expansion, although no specific statement from von der Leyen was verified. The notion that EU expansion brings more security and prosperity is generally supported by past enlargement outcomes but remains a prediction. Montenegro's advanced status in EU candidacy and its target to join by 2028 is well-documented in various sources.
