Full description: |
As a result of the 1995 enlargement, the European Union obtained a new northern flank, creating its border with Russia. Additionally, due to the eastern enlargement, the north-eastern part and its neighboring with the main heir of the Soviet Empire could be anticipated to become even more important. The new situation resulted in a Finnish initiative to create the Northern Dimension of the Common Foreign and Security Policy of the European Union and later in similar attempts of Poland to establish the Eastern Dimension. The ND entered and settled in the EU?s policies very fast. In 1997 to 2000 the ND was suggested and fully implemented into the common policies. This rapid development has given rise to a set of questions and new issues. The allocation of interests and their nature seem worth analyzing. Another issue is whether the ND is a real success. Other issues are future scenarios for the ND and Eastern Dimension of the EU, especially important from the perspective of the New Member States. Ukrainian and Moldavian revolutions as well as the ?Byelorussian problem? can be considered as factors accelerating common efforts in the future.
