초록/요약

This paper tries to shed some light on possible outcomes of Ukraine’s future integration into European Union (EU), measured by EU Trade Policies. The study is carried to find out the main challenges and possible failures that can impact on trade performance of Ukraine. The main objective of this study is to estimate further development of foreign trade of the country and ease of doing trade related business after integration into EU. The study specifically focuses on analyzing the effect of EU policies on foreign trade. In order to find out the impact of such unification, current research tried to examine possible outcomes, by focusing on three main vectors, these are: “analyses of nowadays Ukraine’s trade performance”, “readiness of Ukraine’s current legislative acts to face such unification”, last but not least, “analyzing the practices of countries who have already joined EU with similar structure of the economy, using example of Bulgaria and Poland”. The primary purpose of this conceptual study was to provide a review of relevant literature about the links between adopting the EU policies and trade performance by applying on the case of Ukraine. The assumed relationship between EU trade policies and trade performance improvement becomes the base of the study. Secondary purpose of this study is to assist policymakers from the Government of Ukraine by providing them with conceptual road map for developing effective policies and tools in enhancing trade related activities and trade growth, through deep analyses of EU policies prior to integration into EU.
