Summary/Abstract: On the 8th of December 2010, The European Commission has approved and published the EU Strategy for the Danube region, a draft document of regional cooperation of the Danube riverain states. The riverain states – Austria, Bulgaria, Croatia, Germany, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Moldavia, Montenegro, Hungary, Romania – propose four priority axes. The appearance of this project imposes a reevaluation of the communitarian funds’ accessing procedures, but also the preparation by the Danube riverain states block, of the negotiations for the future financial perspective of the European Union (2014-2020), especially that on the regional plateau, the two strategies of integrated development – the Baltic area and the Danube region, have an indubitable importance.
