Well, if the Pope wants a re-union of east and west the Orthodox practice of allowing married clergy and the acceptance of divorce in some cases have to be addressed. I don't think the Orthodox will change on these issues so does that mean the Latins will change?

You're being real silly if you think the reunion of East and West relies purely on the Latin Catholic Church having married priests -- remember that the CATHOLIC church allows married priests among 21 of the 22 constituent churchs and it's still a unified, Catholic Church.
