Summary/Abstract: This paper explores questions concerning the EU approach towards its Eastern neighbors, as well as the guiding premises of EU foreign policy towards these states without promising to answer them fully. The argument is divided into three parts, starting, first, with a discussion of the ‘foreign policy’ framework that the EU had built with enlargement and the challenges this framework now faces. Second, the paper examines the European Neighborhood Policy in light of the wider questions raised above. Third, the paper finishes with thoughts on what could be done to strengthen the EU foreign policy profile.
