ПОЛИТИЧКЕ ПОСЛЕДИЦЕ ПРОШИРЕЊА ЕУ НА ЕВРОИНТЕГРАЦИЈЕ ЗЕМАЉА КАНДИДАТА И ПОТЕНЦИЈАЛНИХ КАНДИДАТА

Lead by the example of the least prepared states for EU accession, the member states have decided by consensus to stricten conditionality policy, the most important element of the EUs enlargement policy. Introduction of a rigorous but fair approach to European integration of the potential and candidate states is a consequence of circumstances that have influenced the change of rethinking the EUs foreign policy course. Economic crisis, domestic political upturns and insufficiently successful absorption of new member states has resulted with a debate on enlargement saturation and generally influenced the slow down of enlargement process. In such circumstances a great deal of attention has been devoted to the analysis of the scope of consequences of a new policy and process of EU enlargement.
