Summary/Abstract: Historically, the process of reform and integration of member states within the European Union, deepening of relations in both political and economic sense, and the component expansion is taking place more than half a century. A careful analysis of the way of functioning and by comparison with the EU national parliaments, as it is today, contains elements of the federation, confederation, and international organizations. Essential definitions are the objectives of the Member States, their strategic orientation, and determination of the minimum interest that is common to all, and the ways and mechanisms of achieving them. This is corroborated by the formation of mutual bodies acting, both within the Union, and in areas of common foreign and security policy. The Lisbon Treaty provided mechanisms to achieve integration and unique values through the reform of institutions.
