Abstract: Abstract The Central European Initiative (CEI) is a subregional organization made up of 16 member states with a total population of 241 million people and an area of 2,015,137 square kilometres. The member states are: Albania, Austria, Belarus, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Italy, Macedonia, Moldova, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia and Ukraine. Five of these states (Albania, Belarus, Bulgaria, Romania and Ukraine) became full members on 1 June 1996 (previously they had participated in the CEI’s Working Groups as Associate Members). Moldova joined on 8 November 1996. The meeting of CEI Foreign Ministers in Vienna on 1 June 1996, noted in its final document that, with the enlargement by five members that had just taken place and with Moldova joining in November 1996, the Initiative had ‘approached the limits of its organisational capacity as a regional cooperation’. But not quite.
