The year 2014 became a turning point for the history of the EU Eastern
Partnership (EaP), marked by the signing of the Association Agreements
with three EaP states and a conflict in Ukraine. In view of the above,
current research focuses on assessing the feasibility of currently discussed
scenarios of the EaP future, based on the assessment of the EU’s foreign
policy successes and challenges in Eastern Neighborhood. EU’s internal
issues, re-emerging geo-strategic threats and domestic challenges in the
EaP states are analyzed. The considered scenarios include the EU’s
acceptance of status quo in the region, taking a stronger stance to the
integration of Ukraine, Moldova and Georgia, as well as building “a shared
European home” by promoting rapproachement with Russia. The single
scenario for the EU’s policy in the EaP states is suggested, and it is
explained why the EU will try to “build a shared European home”.
