Sažetak
The author presents a view of the European Community with regards to the Europan Union's stance towards new democracies in Eastern Europe. The original principles of European integration include a relatively simple procedure for new membership, but in the process of developing, adopting and accepting the Maastricht treaty the entry requirements have been severely sharpened for potential new members. These conditions include the general attachment to the European identity, democratic government and respect for human rights. For new eastern European democracies, a probationary membership status in the European Union was created in the form of the European agreement, which contains very special conditions and progressive privileges for economic cooperation with the Union. The group of Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary and Slovenia have been included in the European Agreement. The author concludes that this fact will make it harder for other countries to deal with the Union.
