The EU has started a new cycle with an updated list of priorities on a global scale and on solution of regional problems. The role of six countries of the Eastern Partnership was also revised. The main problems are: widespread corruption, lack of rule of law, poor economic condition, the issues of security and visibility. These and other issues will be discussed at the 11 th Annual Assembly of the Eastern Partnership Civil Society Forum (EaP CSF), the member of which is Alla Gamakharia – the representative of the Fund “Sukhumi”. The forum takes place in Brussels, Belgium on December 4-6.
