The Challenge of Enlargement - A Slovenian Perspective
by Boris Cizelj [29/6/2000]
Slovenia is well-placed to join the European Union by January 2003 and to
play an active role in bringing the countries of the Balkan region closer
to Europe. The renewed debate about EU reform should not lead to a
postponing of enlargement.

Russia - Neighbour, Partner and Enigma
by Vladimir Shemiatenkov [20/6/2000]
The future of Russia-EU relationship essentially depends on the
possibility of Russia eventually becoming a Member of the European Union.
The discussion about the impact of enlargement on Russia should not ignore
this ambition.

How Austria sees Eastern Enlargement of the EU
by Manfred Scheich [27/6/2000]
Austria's geographical and economic proximity to the CEECs raises specific
problems on some aspects of enlargement. But Austria intends pursuing the
economic benefits of closer integration with its neighbours.
