Yes. They met the so-called copenhagen criteria, and negotiated for admittance.

Membership requires that candidate country has achieved stability of institutions guaranteeing democracy, the*rule of law, human rights, respect for and protection of*minorities, the existence of a functioning*market economy*as well as the capacity to cope with competitive pressure and market forces within the Union. Membership presupposes the candidate's ability to take on the obligations of membership including adherence to the aims of political, economic and*monetary*union.

Nope, not quite. You also forget greece was in the aftermath of a military dictatorship. In the negotiations measures were laid down. Somewhere in the nineties the economy started to grow again, but slow, very slow. But patience is one of the traits of the EU as you know.
As you know, we are waiting since 2016 for you to leave. We haven't given up hope you will actually gather the courage to do so.
