Summary/Abstract: The defined purpose of this paper is to highlight the significant contribution the Lisbon Treaty has had into placing a strong credibility into the EU as a single entity in a multipolar world that is suffering a crisis of globalization. The stringency of a reform on one hand at institutional level and on the other hand at it’s foreign policy level has become the more intense the more the international events required to be taken immediate actions to be dealt with and the more the EU’s efficiency as a single entity has become questionable, seen rather as an amount of foreground distinctive national interests.
