Abstract

Despite the tectonic political shifts occurring in recent times, the European Union (EU) remains one of the strongest actors in the international arena. Consequently, its position on various ongoing processes is important and worth consideration. The processes occurring simultaneously with the 2022 Russo-Ukrainian conflict resulted in political and economic fluctuations. Sanctions imposed by the EU on the aggressor country have had a local impact as well, which directly affected the EU currency itself. Consequently, a well-founded fear and threat arose that, like in 2008, recessionary events would occur again and would have a great impact on member and non-member states. Considering the above-mentioned, it is important to conduct an in-depth review of the political and security aspects of relations and the attitude of the European Union toward Georgia and the states of the region in general. The paper provides a bilateral analysis of Georgia's road towards accession to the European Union and possible prospects for further development. The latter is also the main purpose of the research. With the use of qualitative methodologies, namely case study and content analysis, the research reviews the overall situation in the region. For these purposes, various primary and secondary sources were analyzed in-depth. Based on the latter a conclusion was drawn, which is in full compliance with the purpose of the research. In order to develop an alternative vision and perspectives on the topic, the research relies on a theory created within the Georgian scientific field – Relativistic-Quantum Noology. This allows us to see the future perspectives of Georgia-EU relations in a new light. Within the framework of the research, the dynamics of the relations between Georgia and the EU are reviewed in depth, an important aspect of which is the relations of the EU itself and the coherent analysis of these relations, which implies the development of security guarantees with the countries of the region itself. To implement the above-mentioned in practice, it is necessary to review not only the specific country but also the overall situation in the region. Consequently, the second chapter and its’ subchapters of the paper are devoted to a review of these issues, namely a discussion of EU-Georgia relations and the EU’s standing on the security issues in the region. The third chapter outlines the possibilities of the fulfilment of EU requirements, whereas the fourth chapter is devoted to a discussion of perspectives on Georgia’s membership of the EU and possible scenarios in case of such membership.
