Abstract: The European Union as a global leader takes part in solving many international problems. In its foreign policy, and in the estimation of global threats, the EU is similar to the United States of America. However, the peculiarities of the political nature of the European Union, its unique geopolitical specificity and economic aspirations determine significant differences between the international strategies of the EU and the U.S. The European Union developed its own style of leadership in the world politics - more restricted, but in the long term prospects, may be more effective than the American one. The analysis of the EU leadership potential allows us to determine its degree of the global leadership.
