| Title | THE PERCEPTION OF RUSSIA TOWARDS EASTERN ENLARGEMENT; CASE STUDY UKRAINE |
| Summary | The weak internal cohesion affects international relations of Ukraine with two neighboring powers: EU and Russia. Focusing on my argument and the framework of internal cohesion, the main question I address is to what extent is the influence of the EU’s EaP and of Russia’s foreign policy enabled by Ukraine’s internal cohesion? The main method exercised is the analysis of the scholarly articles, books, primary speeches and documents of the international relations between Russia, European Union and Ukraine. The analysis of the EU and Russian foreign policy and their international relations with the six post-Soviet states in particular through the framework of Eastern Partnership and the Eurasian Economic Community, identifies a series of limitations in terms of the way they try to promote these frameworks. This research has attempted to show is that if the internal cohesion is not strong enough to bind Ukraine together as a state, the international community will have to fill this role. |
