Political Economy of the Eastern Neighborhood: The Case of Belarus (PDF/223Kb) [20/05/2008]
Rakova, E.
According to the official definition, the main objectives of the European Neighbourhood Policy (ENP) are the mutual interest of the EU and its neighbours in promoting reform, the rule of law, stable democracy and prosperity throughout the neighbourhood of the enlarged European Union. With this in mind, we can only conclude that with respect to Belarus, the EU policy and the ENP failed not only in promoting similar reforms as CEE countries have implemented but even in slightly improving the situation with regard to (parliamentary) democracy or human rights. However, this is not due to flaws in the ENP. The ENP is an efficient and flexible policy and a hand of help and support but only in a case when such help is needed and appreciated.
This report has been prepared within the project ENEPO - EU Eastern Neighbourhood: Economic Potential and Future Development funded by the Sixth Framework Programme of the European Union.
