Following Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the EU’s ambition to develop “strategic and ambitious partnership(s) based on common values and rules, mutual interests and commitments, as well as shared ownership and responsibility” (EEAS) in the countries of the Eastern Partnership has come under much pressure. Whatever remains of this ambitions in the South Caucasus has turned into a frantic attempt to re-define the EU’s role in this new geopolitical scenario. This collection focuses on Armenia and Georgia as the two “frontline” countries in which the beneficial role of the EU and the supposed commonality of values are being questioned most rigorously. Using the perspective of authors from the region, this volume offers unique insights into the debates and perceptions of the EU’s involvement in the South Caucasus.
