(IN)EFFECTIVENESS OF THE EU CONFLICT MANAGEMENT AND MEDIATION IN GEORGIA AND MOLDOVA – VIEW FROM BERLIN
Journal Title: Medzinárodné vzťahy - Year 2017, Vol 15, Issue 1
Abstract
Recent developments in the EU’s Eastern Partnership countries, including Russia’s increasingly aggressive actions and military adventurism, escalation of violence, inflammation of new conflicts and renewal of the old ones, have put the EU conflict management abilities to a serious test. As a result of these novel circumstances, it has become critically necessary to evaluate the EU’s past engagements in conflict management and examine the strengths and weaknesses in its approach, which can be used as guidelines for the Union’s future conflict management activities. This article will look to gauge the opinions and perceptions of policy and decision makers by interviewing the Berlin insiders. In particular, the research questions consider how policy shapers and decision makers in Berlin perceive the effectiveness of the EU conflict management and mediation in Georgia and Moldova. Was the EU successful in managing or mediating the conflicts in these countries? How can the EU activities be improved?
