Would the Norwegian model work for Ukraine?

Konrad Schuller reports that the "Norwegian model" sets the golden standard in the current debate about Ukraine's status. "We must take quick action if we want to avoid losing the region between Galicia and Donbass, with its important transit routes for Russian and Central Asian oil and gas to Europe. So if EU membership for Ukraine is out of the question for now, we must at least provide it with a cosy waiting room where it will feel comfortable for a couple of decades and which has an open door to the main salon. This is where 'Norway' comes in. Norway is not an EU member, but it's almost as if it were. Under the auspices of the European Economic Area (EEA) it has very close ties with the EU's domestic market and it even forms part of the free border control agreement under the Schengen Agreement... For Poland, which, if it could, would open all doors immediately, this model doesn't go far enough. The French, on the other hand, would block the entrance with mines and ferocious guard dogs if they could. And the Germans, anxious not to take sides with anyone, say: Yes, that might work."
