Summary/Abstract: Populations of different ethnicities have to live in different states, separated by borders that mutilate the national feeling and the perspective of the populations. In the relatively recent period, the European Union has proceeded to overcome the sequelae of the past, switching to creating bridges between neighbouring states, which have populations living on both sides of the border.The approach serves the need for balance, peace and detente in areas that have been difficult for conflict in the past. The initiative came from the West,mainly due to German concerns, the space being severely tested during the last world conflagrations. In the established cross-border collaborations, the most important is the economic-financial support for raising the standard of living and expectation in the poor communities. In this context, regarding the crossborder collaboration in the area bordering the national territory, Romania presents itself as extremely constructive, being part of 12 Euroregions, across all the borders of the country.
