Avrupa komşuluk politikası'nın ekonomik etkileri açısından değerlendirilmesi

Avrupa Birliğinin beşinci genişleme dalgasından sonra güvenlik, istikrar, refah ve komşu ülkelerle ilişkilerin geliştirilmesi sağlanması önemli politikalardan biri haline gelmiştir. Çünkü bu ülkelerin ekonomik durumları arasındaki farklılıklar ve organize suçlarla mücadele Avrupa Birliği ile komşu ülkeler arasında yeni politikalar oluşturulmasına yol açmıştır. 2004 yılında başlatılan Avrupa Komşuluk Politikası 16 ülkeyi kapsamaktadır. Bu ülkeler: İsrail, Ürdün, Moldova, Fas, Filistin, Tunus, Ukrayna, Ermenistan, Azerbaycan, Mısır, Gürcistan, Lübnan, Cezayir, Suriye, Libya ve Beyaz Rusyadır. Avrupa Komşuluk Politikasının asıl amacı Avrupa Birliği ülkeleri ile komşuları arasındaki ilişkileri düzenlemektedir. Bu çalışmada, Avrupa Komşuluk Politikasının ekonomik etkileri 2005 ile 2012 yılları arası esas alınarak incelenmiştir. Elde edilen sonuçlar, Avrupa Komşuluk Politikası kapsamındaki ülkelerin ekonomik durumları ve hayat standartlarında bu dönemde bir iyileşme olduğunu göstermektedir.
