Abstract:
Integration processes are a growing trend in the global economy: the circle of participating
countries is expanding; new forms and directions of international cooperation are appearing.
The experience gained by the developing countries of Central and Eastern Europe proves the
diversity of national models of participation in economic integration processes, as well as to
the ambiguous results of their implementation. In order to ensure national competitiveness
and security, it is necessary to ensure the diversification of the forms and directions of
integration processes. The specifics and ambiguous consequences of the CEE countries
development within the EU are of particular interest to developing countries located in close
proximity to the borders of this integration association. The lessons of the integration
association of Europe are in many respects valuable for Moldova, Belarus and Ukraine.
