Summary/Abstract: This paper is an analysis of the European Union’s policies in the Neighbourhood area at its Eastern border, with a particular focus on the special neighbourhood relations developed with Ukraine. The premises of this paper are built around the idea that Romania, as an EU member state, moving within the European policies for cross-border cooperation and by using the European instruments, develops a legislative and institutional framework meant to deepen this cooperation at its border with Ukraine. The cross-border cooperation between Romania and Ukraine has been marked by the general framework of bilateral relations, but also by the geopolitical context of the two states.
