The Price and Possibilities of Going East? The European Union and Wider Europe, the European Neighbourhood and the Eastern Partnership

  • Chapter
  • First Online:

Part of the book series: New Security Challenges ((NSECH))

Abstract

After a forgotten but easy enlargement in 1990, the European Community/European Union has moved itself ever east, and southeastwards. By 2007, it had come down to the western coasts of the Black Sea. This chapter analyses how the EU moved eastwards and how it sought to cope with the challenges that have arisen. This is done through an analysis of the EU’s Global Strategy and its major EU outreach, including its concepts of ‘Wider Europe’, the European Neighbourhood and the Eastern Partnership.

    An example of stark identification of such regional competition can be the following: ‘The EU put pressure on the various countries to enter into closer institutional and economic links with the EU and not with Russia…. Russia explicitly warned countries like Georgia, Moldova and Ukraine that it would be a mistake to seek closer ties with the EU and it threatened with potential counter-reactions against countries that would opt for the EU.’ Stephan Keukeleire and Irina Petrova, ‘The European Union, the Eastern Neighbourhood and Russia: Competing Regionalisms’ in Mario Telò (ed.), European Union and New Regionalism: Competing Regionalism and Global Governance in a Post-Hegemonic Era (Routledge, 2016), p. 263.

    The European Commission began backdating its documentation with this country to include reference to the new country name that was agreed between Skopje and Athens on 12 February 2019. Commission webpages now write, for example, that ‘The Republic of North Macedonia’s application for EU membership was submitted on 26 February 2004’, even though that name was not in use at the time.

    In a news account of Scotland-born Russia adviser to Trump, Fiona Hill, commented more widely: ‘Yet Hill and her peers have managed to craft a Russia policy that is, by any measure—sanctions, expulsions, military buildup—tougher than that of the Obama administration. Trump has not always championed this approach, but he apparently hasn’t hindered Hill and her colleagues on the National Security Council or in the State Department from doing their work. He has, in effect, sanctioned a Russia policy that is entirely at odds with his own pronouncement.’ Alexander Nazaryan, ‘Fiona Hill, Trump’s top expert on Russia, is quietly shaping a tougher U.S. policy’, Yahoo News, 25 September 2018, available at: https://www.yahoo.com/news/fiona-hill-trumps-top-expert-russia-quietly-shaping-tougher-u-s-policy-090025600.html?soc_src=hl-viewer&soc_trk=tw&guccounter=1.
