European affairs ministers from the 27 EU nations has agreed to endorse a recommendation from the bloc’s executive arm to grant Bosnia candidate member status.
The step is expected to be signed off formally by EU leaders at a summit in Brussels.
Bosnia will join seven other nations with candidate status: Turkey, North Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia, Albania, Moldova and Ukraine.
Ukraine and Moldova were the most recent countries to be made candidates when they were given the status in June, four months after Russia unleashed its war on Kyiv.
Kosovo has announced its intention to apply for membership before the end of the year.
