| Title | EU FOREIGN POLICY: TOWARD EFFECTIVE CRISIS RESPONSE? |
| Summary | The present paper addresses the problem of the effectiveness of the EU foreign policy in the crisis situations. On the ground of liberal intergovernmentalism it was noted that states’ preferences are often differently prioritized by the Member States. The analysis of three different cases revealed that the degree of cohesion of the European foreign policy is linked to the issue area and political environment. It was also revealed that ongoing Ukrainian crisis with the active involvement of Russia was considered to be as the threat undermining European values, and thus EU functioning. In order to make the foreign policy of the European Union cohesive and effectively respond to the challenges, EU Member States should find such a motive or preference, which would remain equally important despite changing political environment. |
