The foundations and the institutional framework of the EU and EAP states' relations in the field of migration and asylum

Summary/Abstract: The objective of this paper is to explore and stress the place and importance of the migration and asylum issues in the context of the Eastern Partnership policy initiative. Existing since 2009 the Eastern Partnership currently covers relations between the 28 EU members, three Eastern European countries (Belarus, Moldova and Ukraine) and three Southern Caucasus ones (Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia). As the migration and asylum area is very complex and multidimensional in terms of its subject scope, geographical scope and stakeholders involved, in this paper I will first present the overview of the EaP, in order to discuss the role of migration-related issues within the proper context.
