Basic study of the transborder cooperation on the Carpathian CBC macroregion

Abstract

Abstract. In the period of 2007-2013 the Carpathian CBC Macroregion will get into a strategic position, as the eastern border of the European Union stretches across its territory. The geostrategic role of the Carpathian CBC Macroregion will be strengthened again and the promotion of Euro-Atlantic integration of the Ukraine will become its central task. It's a well-known fact, that the EU pays a particular attention to and provides a considerable financial support for the improvement of cooperation across the "internal borders". In our case a separate resource is provided by the Hungarian-Slovakian-Romanian-Ukrainian Programme of Cross-border Cooperation, which is based on the European Neighbourhood & Partnership Instrument (ENPI).
