THE REPUBLIC OF MOLDOVA’S EUROPEAN CHOICE AND WHY IT MATTERS

Europolity – Continuity and Change in European Governance - New Series, 2014, vol. 8, issue 2, 121-136

Abstract: This paper is focused on the relationship between the Republic of Moldova and the European Union. In a regional climate marked by the crisis in Ukraine, Moldova is an interesting case. It is arguably the most committed country in the Eastern Partnership to a stronger relationship with the EU. It is also the country that registered most progress in adopting EU policies. And, most of all, it seems the most likely country to challenge the “everything but institutions” principle that has shunned away any hope of EU membership for countries in the European Neighbourhood Policy. The paper will try to outline how the relationship between the Republic of Moldova and the EU has evolved, how the two sides perceive each other, what is the current status and what are the perspectives, while also pointing out to the regional and even international significance of this relationship.
