"It is of significant interest to the EU to demonstrate its ambition and pragmatism in economic cooperation as part of the European Neighbourhood Policy, as well as to adopt a mutually beneficial, responsible and flexible strategy. The EU is a living organism that learns from its own failures and mistakes. This is why the European Neighbourhood Policy must obviously be based mainly on values, in other words, on zero tolerance of authoritarian regimes in the southern neighbourhood. We need to move beyond security and immigration control when it comes to non-EU states located on the other side of the Mediterranean and add an important cooperation element to the neighbourhood policy which gives priority to democracy and prosperity.
The states neighbouring the EU have recently been faced with political and social challenges, on top of the economic ones. Apart from the humanitarian objectives, there is a pragmatic objective to help these states to reduce unemployment rates and offer some hope for the future to the population living in the states neighbouring the EU. The EU must foster the European aspirations of some of its non-EU partners and galvanise their commitment to build lasting democracy. To be able to encourage them, a prompt review of the European Neighbourhood Policy is required."@en1
