Abstract
Ukraine is a major political and economic partner of Poland. Because of Ukraine’s location on external eastern border with the European Union, this neighbourhood performs also strategic role for the whole Union. The tight border of the EU and asymmetry of economic and political systems constitute a lot of developmental barriers not only for borderland but also for its inhabitants and economic subjects. In this context special role constitutes Polish and Ukrainian borderland. Transborder regions development in all European countries performs important role both in national policy and European development policy. This article is an attempt at analysis of problems and determinants of cooperation of two Polish and three Ukrainian neighbouring regions situated along eastern Schengen border. On the basis of geopolitical determinants and legal basis delimitation was made. Moreover, Polish - Ukrainian Transborder Region (PUTR) was defined, its economic position was specified, forms and scope of cooperation were identified including ‘contact’ problems such as border and transport infrastructure. On the basis of identified problems, chances and threats, in the article were formulated: main policy, challenge and recommendations connected with using transborder developmental potentials in the years 2025-2030. Specified recommendations are connected with Eastern Partnership which is one of the priorities of the Polish Presidency of the EU Council in 2011.
