1. accession

   Entrance, the act of entering, refers merely to the fact of passing from without to within some enclosure; admission and admittance refer to entering by or with some one's consent, or at least to opportunity afforded by some one's act or neglect. We may effect or force an entrance, but not admittance or admission; those we gain, procure, obtain, secure, win. Admittance refers to place, admission refers also to position, privilege, favor, friendship, etc. An intruder may gain admittance to the hall of a society who would not be allowed admission to its membership. Approach is a movement toward another; access is coming all the way to his presence, recognition, and consideration. An unworthy favorite may prevent even those who gain admittance to a king's audience from obtaining any real access to the king. Entrance is also used figuratively for setting out upon some career, or becoming a member of some organization; as, we speak of one's entrance upon college life, or of entrance into the ministry.

How to use accession in a sentence?

1. William Jackson at Capital Economics:

   We've seen a couple of months of relatively good current account data which shows some external vulnerabilities may be declining. Plus the promise to speed up EU accession talks has led to hopes the (ruling) AK Party will re-launch reforms which stalled a few years ago when accession talks hit a brick wall.

2. Sinan Ulgen:

   This so-called grand coalition represents the best way forward for Turkey at this juncture, such a broad-based agreement could ease the country's current extreme political polarisation and reintroduce a dynamic of democratic and economic reform underpinned by a new momentum toward the goal of EU accession.

3. Foreign Ministry spokesman Martin Schaefer:

   Turkey's membership of the European Union is a long process which we are in the middle of; the process is not simple, on the contrary, it is highly complicated due to a range of reasons, it is far too early to predict what the result at the end of this difficult accession process will be.

4. Sebastian Kurz:

   The criteria for visa liberalization will not be fulfilled by Turkey. And the requirements for accession talks have not been met.

5. Johannes Hahn:

   The atmosphere is such that we should very soon start official accession talks with Serbia.
