    ПОЛІТИЧНІ ПРОБЛЕМИ МІЖНАРОДНИХ СИСТЕМ ТА ГЛОБАЛЬНОГО РОЗВИТКУ УДК 327(438) Blyzniak O.А., National University of Ostroh Academy THE EASTERN PARTNERSHIP IN POLAND’S FOREIGN POLICY The eastern dimension of the EU policies was implemented under the European Neighborhood Policy. Eventually, the southern and eastern dimensions emerged as well. Poland joined the discussions that arose in the light of these changes and took a clear position on the need to establish and implement an effective eastern policy of the European Union regarding the countries located to the east of its borders. Poland initiated the Eastern Partnership with the support of Sweden and tried to form a group of its supporters in the EU. At first, such an interest of Poland in its eastern neighbors was motivated more by its geographical proximity and significant historical and economic ties, but today, security has become the dominant factor. As the ideologue of the new format of relations with the EU, Poland offered the countries under the Eastern Partnership a quite ambitious cooperation project. However, such plans of this country did not always find support in the EU. During its Presidency of the EU Council, Poland managed to do much for the implementation of the Eastern Partnership. Notably, the second Eastern Partnership Summit was held in Warsaw. The implementation of the Eastern Partnership produced different views on this project in the political establishment and common citizens of Poland varying from delight to criticism. Despite some difficulties, Poland continues to view the eastern direction of its foreign policy as its priority and the one that requires its intervention, support, and resources.

The air of tolerance and wealth built on trade has enabled culture, science, and the Arts to flourish in the city for centuries. Today, Gdańsk remains a key meeting place and major tourist attraction in Poland. While the city boasts historic sites of enchanting beauty, it also has a major historic and social importance. In addition to its 1000-year history, the city is the place where the Second World War broke out as well as the birthplace of Solidarność, the Solidarity movement, which led to the fall of Communism in Central and Eastern Europe. The European Solidarity Centre www.ecs.gda.pl The European Solidarity Centre is a multifunctional institution combining scientific, cultural and educational activities with a modern museum and archive, which documents freedom movements in the modern history of Poland and Europe. The Centre was established in Gdańsk on November 8th 2007. Its new building was opened in 2014 on the anniversary of the August Accords signed in Gdańsk between the worker’s union “Solidarność” and communist authorities in 1980. The Centre is meant to be an agora, a space for people and ideas that build and develop a civic society, a meeting place for people who hold the world’s future dear.
