| Summary: | This approach aims to highlight the European Union's long-term economic security policy.
Following the signing of the Economic Agreements between the EU and Ukraine, the Republic of Moldova
and Georgia, as EU-associated countries, major economic and geostrategic interests of the European Union
are revealed, in the sense of holding the economic and geostrategic supremacy, that is an enlarged economic
and functional market, just by the rules imposed by Brussels, is a tool for controlling and counteracting the
economic pressure exerted on the world market by the three great powers, the USA, China and Russia.
Even if the USA finances the three associated states in the EU, amid the consolidation of the rule of law and
a solid democracy, the expected outcome of the USA foreign policy is by far an insignificant one. We
should consider China's growing interest, which has increased its purchases of vast agricultural lands and
signing economic contracts with the Ukrainian state. Thus, we can notice a new struggle front between the
economic axes created: the USA-EU and RUSSIA-CHINA, which at this moment, through the move made
by Russia, the annexation of Crimea, takes another turn. |
