Wśród tych zagadnień można wyróżnić nastę- pujące: jaka jest procedura wystąpienia państwa członkowskiego z UE; jakie będą konsekwencje wystąpienia dla Wielkiej Brytanii i UE; czy przykład Wielkiej Brytanii może stanowić precedens dla pozostałych krajów; czy powinniśmy oczekiwać eskalacji problemów w innych regionach UE, jak np. w Szkocji, która jest gotowa przeprowadzić referendum dotyczące uniezależnienia się od Zjednoczonego Królestwa. W odniesieniu do krajów Europy Środkowo-Wschodniej pytania o przyszłość UE, miejsce tego regionu i jego znaczenia we współpracy regionalnej w ramach UE również stały się aktualne. Zagadnienie współpracy między krajami Europy Środkowo-Wschodniej zyskało dodatkowy impuls do żywej dyskusji po aneksji Krymu przez Rosję w 2014 i poważnej ingerencji Federacji Rosyjskiej w wewnętrzne sprawy Ukrainy, co doprowadziło do okupacji części regionów Do- niecka i Ługańska. Poczucie zagrożenia, intensywność wyzwań i brak jednolitego stanowiska wszystkich krajów członkowskich UE powoduje, że kraje tego regionu poszukują właściwych wariantów bezpieczeństwa i współpracy regionalnej. Od długiego czasu polscy politycy rozwa- żają ideę „Międzymorza” autorstwa marszałka Piłsudskiego. Wkrótce po ogłoszeniu wyników referendum w sprawie opuszenia Unii Europejskiej przez Wielką Brytanię, marszałek Sejmu RP, M. Kuchciński, podczas forum ekonomicznego w Krynicy zaproponował utworzenie miedzy- parlamentarnego zgromadzenia członków Grupy Wyszehradzkiej (Polska, Republika Czeska, Słowacja, Węgry) i dwóch krajów sąsiednich Regionu Karpackiego – Rumunii i Ukrainy. Za- stosowanie tych i innych możliwości współpracy regionalnej również zależy od naszej wiedzy o sytuacji w krajach Europy Środkowo-Wschodniej. Proponowany nr 5 publikacji zawiera szereg omówień, które przede wszystkim koncentru- ją się na politycznych aspektach rozwoju regionalnego. Co więcej, to wydanie zawiera szereg propozycji rozwiązań i społeczno-ekonomicznych uwarunkowań politycznych w regionie. Tra- dycyjnie dominuje format porównawczy, co wydaje się oczywiste w kontekście szybkich zmian w szerokim zakresie instytucji politycznych i społecznych w krajach tego regionu. 5 Вступ Референдум, який відбувся наприкінці червня 2016 р. у Великій Британії, попри фіксацію переваги більшості громадян країни щодо виходу із складу Європейського Союзу, поставив у політичній та концептуальній сфері Європи та цілого світу низку питань. Серед цих питань ми можемо виділити наступні: як має відбутися вихід країни- члена із Європейського Союзу; які будуть наслідки для Великобританії та самого ЄС; наскільки приклад Великобританії може стати прецедентом для ряду інших країн; чи слід очікувати посилення регіональних проблем у самих європейських країнах, подібно до ситуації із Шотландією, яка готова повторно провести референдум щодо свого перебування у складі Великої Британії. Стосовно країн регіону Центрально-Східної Європи актуалізувалося питання майбутнього ЄС, місця країн регіону у Європейському Союзі та значення регіональної співпраці. Питання регіональної співпраці країн Центрально-Східної Європи дістали потужний поштовх до активного обговорення після анексії Росією

Prepared by the Visegrad/Insight in cooperation with the Konrad Adenauer Foundation in Poland and a contribution from the ABTShield. EUROPEAN PARLIAMENTARY #FUTURES Four post-2019 options WOJCIECH PRZYBYLSKI Editor-in-chief The EU is at a critical juncture. For the first time since the launching of European inte- gration, doubts about the future of the EU have been raised by mainstream politicians and large swathes of the European public. Uncertainty as to the fate of Europe may demotivate voters and help disinformation campaigns often run by foreign powers hostile to the European project or sponsored by clandestine third parties. Whilst many of these fears are often seen as exaggerated, it is difficult to dismiss the impact of Brexit; for the first time since its inception, a major state in a process of leaving the EU. MARCIN ZABOROWSKI Senior Associate Even worse – and like never before – the EU is no longer supported by the sitting US President. In the 1950s, the United States was the sponsor and co-creator of European integra- tion. All subsequent American administrations have supported the EU, a policy now discontinued by the current American President.

  • Statement of Preliminary Findings and Conclusions Kyiv, 27 October 2015
    European Network of Election Європейська мережа організацій Monitoring Organizations зі спостереження за виборами International Observation Mission to Ukraine Міжнародна місія зі спостереження в Україні Local Elections 2015 Місцеві вибори 2015 Statement of Preliminary Findings and Conclusions Kyiv, 27 October 2015 The first round of Ukrainian local elections was mainly held in a peaceful environment and in line with most international standards and national legislation. However, the politicized composition and conduct of a number of territorial election commissions, supplemented with the complexity of the new law leave space for concern. The European Network of Election Monitoring Organizations (ENEMO) is a network of 22 leading election monitoring organizations from 18 countries of Europe and Central Asia, including three European Union countries. This is the tenth Election Observation Mission by ENEMO to Ukraine, which began with the arrival of 8 core team members to Kyiv, on 1 October in order to observe the Local Elections 2015. ENEMO additionally deployed 50 long-term observers (LTOs) countrywide to observe and assess the electoral process in their respective regions for the elections on 25 October 2015, as well as the eventual second round of elections. 180 short-term observers (STOs) have been deployed to observe the first round of elections to Ukraine. Together with mobile LTOs, ENEMO had 93 teams in the field, which have monitored the opening of 93 PECs, voting in 1211 PECs and the closing of 93 PECs. This preliminary report is based on the ENEMO observers’ findings from the field, where they focused on the work of election administration bodies, the conduct of election participants, the overall conduct of elections during Election day in terms of opening, voting, counting and the transferring of election materials, election-related complaints and appeals and other election related activities.

  • Chechnya's Status Within the Russian
    SWP Research Paper Uwe Halbach Chechnya’s Status within the Russian Federation Ramzan Kadyrov’s Private State and Vladimir Putin’s Federal “Power Vertical” Stiftung Wissenschaft und Politik German Institute for International and Security Affairs SWP Research Paper 2 May 2018 In the run-up to the Russian presidential elections on 18 March 2018, the Kremlin further tightened the federal “vertical of power” that Vladimir Putin has developed since 2000. In the North Caucasus, this above all concerns the republic of Dagestan. Moscow intervened with a powerful purge, replacing the entire political leadership. The situation in Chechnya, which has been ruled by Ramzan Kadyrov since 2007, is conspicuously different. From the early 2000s onwards, President Putin conducted a policy of “Chechenisation” there, delegating the fight against the armed revolt to local security forces. Under Putin’s protection, the republic gained a leadership which is now publicly referred to by Russians as the “Chechen Khanate”, among other similar expressions. Kadyrov’s breadth of power encompasses an independ- ent foreign policy, which is primarily orientated towards the Middle East. Kadyrov emphatically professes that his republic is part of Russia and presents himself as “Putin’s foot soldier”. Yet he has also transformed the federal subject of Chechnya into a private state. The ambiguous relationship between this republic and the central power fundamentally rests on the loyalty pact between Putin and Kadyrov. However, criticism of this arrange- ment can now occasionally be heard even in the Russian president’s inner circles. With regard to Putin’s fourth term, the question arises just how long the pact will last.

  • 50 YEARS of EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT HISTORY and Subjugated
    European Parliament – 50th birthday QA-70-07-089-EN-C series 1958–2008 Th ere is hardly a political system in the modern world that does not have a parliamentary assembly in its institutional ‘toolkit’. Even autocratic or totalitarian BUILDING PARLIAMENT: systems have found a way of creating the illusion of popular expression, albeit tamed 50 YEARS OF EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT HISTORY and subjugated. Th e parliamentary institution is not in itself a suffi cient condition for granting a democratic licence. Yet the existence of a parliament is a necessary condition of what 1958–2008 we have defi ned since the English, American and French Revolutions as ‘democracy’. Since the start of European integration, the history of the European Parliament has fallen between these two extremes. Europe was not initially created with democracy in mind. Yet Europe today is realistic only if it espouses the canons of democracy. In other words, political realism in our era means building a new utopia, that of a supranational or post-national democracy, while for two centuries the DNA of democracy has been its realisation within the nation-state.

  • The State of Implementation of the Associations and Free Trade
    DIRECTORATE-GENERAL FOR EXTERNAL POLICIES POLICY DEPARTMENT STUDY The state of implementation of the associations and free trade agreements with Ukraine, Georgia and Moldova with a particular focus on Ukraine and systemic analysis of key sectors ABSTRACT Signing and ratifying Association Agreements with Georgia, Moldova, and Ukraine has proven to be an impressive affirmation of Brussels’ soft power. The EU’s overtures have persuaded elites and mobilised societies despite the fact that the Agreements come neither with a membership promise nor with the kind of financial assistance that has been given to the EU’s new member states. EU assistance has been effective in restoring macro-financial stability in all three countries. While costs of compliance with the DCFTA were calculated, level of investment associated with the necessary modernisation to make these economies competitive were neglected. The discrepancy between costs and benefits should prompt the EU to be more flexible. Brussels’ achievements remain fragile. Informal interests continue to play important roles in these countries and have the potential to thwart reforms. In the absence of strong, de-politicised institutions, the EU should work to support political consolidation—the alternative is further polarisation and political fragility—while at the same time insisting on adherence to democratic standards and strengthened institutional checks and balances.
