EASTERN EUROPEAN INTEGRATION INITIATIVES – STRATEGY OF JOINING EU AND NATO

Abstract

Enlargement of European Union created many discussions on positive and negative moments of this trend in European integration processes. Supporters of the enlargement emphasize that it’s the only way to support the entire process of European integration, otherwise principles of EC organization will be called in question. At the same time, acceptance of new members shall be made gradually; European Union shall be ready to subsequent enlargements.
