Summary/Abstract: Corruption is one of the biggest threats to states, both those in which it is present, and the neighbouring countries. Thus, the European Union made considerable efforts regarding the fight against corruption, especially in the states of Eastern Europe. To this end, it created the Eastern Partnership as a tool to allow EU to provide support in strengthening the efforts of these countries to prevent and combat corruption, and also to share EU experience, standards and procedures in this area. The six states of the EaP, namely Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Moldova, Georgia and Ukraine, are, according to the index of Transparency International, use different standards in what regards the measures taken in the fight against corruption, which makes also the measures adopted by EU in the area to be also differentiated. However, despite the efforts of the EU, some countries, such as Armenia, Azerbaijan and Belarus, abandoned at various stages, participation in the EaP, which shows gaps in actions taken by the EU.
