that's why he said: light years away
as in: there is still a great amount of distance Orban thinks Ukraine needs to cover before they converge with the EU admissions acceptability criteria
God, I can't believe I just had to defend Orban
"Years away" is also a phrase, honestly it could easily be either and it takes more of a stretch to read it like you did than as a mistake.
Most people consider light years a measure of time, not distance.
Let it go and allow it to die in peace; the subject is already cold and stiff.
