Bridging the Divide: Overcoming Limited Integration in the Black Sea Region

by Eastern European Institute for Trade

Navigating the complex landscape of regional cooperation, the Black Sea region has faced significant challenges in fostering economic and political integration. Despite its geopolitical importance and rich natural resources, historical disputes and a lack of harmonized policy frameworks have hindered the area’s full potential. This article delves into the existing limitations, highlighting avenues for enhancing integration and cooperation for a more prosperous and stable future.

With a shared historical heritage, the Black Sea countries hold great potential for economic collaboration. However, internal and external political tensions have resulted in a fragmented landscape, impeding the region’s progress (Manoli, 2015). As a means to bridge this divide, multilateral initiatives such as the Black Sea Economic Cooperation (BSEC) and the European Union’s Eastern Partnership have sought to foster cooperation and economic integration (Beyer, 2016).

Trade barriers are one of the most critical factors hindering economic integration in the region. The World Bank (2014) highlights that despite the establishment of the BSEC, trade among its members remains significantly below potential. Reducing these barriers by streamlining customs procedures, harmonizing regulations, and implementing joint infrastructure projects can boost intra-regional trade and foster economic growth.

Energy security has emerged as a pivotal issue in the Black Sea region, with countries such as Turkey, Romania, and Bulgaria seeking to diversify their energy sources (EIA, 2013). Collaborative efforts in developing energy infrastructure, such as the Southern Gas Corridor, can enhance regional energy security and foster economic cooperation.

Investment in cross-border infrastructure projects, such as the TRACECA and TEN-T transport corridors, can significantly improve connectivity within the Black Sea region (European Commission, 2020). Improved infrastructure not only strengthens economic ties but also enhances the region’s attractiveness to foreign investors.

Lastly, enhancing people-to-people contacts through joint educational and cultural programs is vital to fostering trust, understanding, and cooperation among the Black Sea countries (Uzer, 2017). These initiatives can lead to the development of a shared regional identity and pave the way for increased collaboration in other sectors.

In conclusion, overcoming the limitations of regional integration in the Black Sea region necessitates a multifaceted approach encompassing trade, energy, infrastructure, and people-to-people contacts. Such an approach can unlock the region’s potential and pave the way for a prosperous and stable future.

The Constitution is the supreme law of the land, and it sets the foundation for democracy, justice, and human rights. The Constitution guarantees the protection of individual rights and freedoms, ensuring that the…

For my part I have sought liberty more than power, and power only because it can lead to freedom. What interested me was not a philosophy of the free man (all who try that have proved tiresome), but a technique: I hoped to discover the hinge where our will meets and moves with destiny, and where discipline strengthens, instead of restraining, our nature.

— Memoirs of Hadrian by Marguerite Yourcenar, translated from the French by Grace Frick

#the wheel of time #siuan sanche #wot edit #wot on prime #clever as a pike #mygifs #mine: wot #you know what I will stop fiddling with it #I wanted a certain vibe I think I achieved it #I picked the wrong copy of the book without my annotations so it took me ages to find the quote #ANYWAY #yes please talk to me about about Siuan and power #Siuan dreaming of a home like her father's hut #knowing it'll ever be just a dream because her power and stability depend on the appearance of power she conveys #she's a prisoner of the Tower but the world depends on her control on it #she's an heretic but her heresy hinges on her ability to follow the law #to be the law #yes I know someday I will stop making Yourcenar-inspired fandom gifsets and tearing my hair to find translations #but the temptation was too great to quote from this because she's such a political being at heart yet driven by such dedication to humanity

as awful as it's actually been to live through, liz trusses 45 days in office is objectively hilarious on reflection. girlie walked in, had three quiet weeks of royalty circus when the queen kicked it, proceeded to immediately crash the £ by making economic plans so bad that every single market in the world went What The Fuck, spend a little under a month scrambling and back pedaling and changing ministers and desperately trying to cling onto power before finally dramatically resigning after 45 entire days (the shortest time of any prime minister ever) and starting a panic 7 day long leadership election just so that the Tories can try and avoid calling an actual general election. good job everyone

#txt #uk politics #what a ride. the liz truss memes were brief but fun #not to be an anti union bitch but. nicola sturgeon has been first minister for eight (8) years now #the media should legally ban any tories from saying the word stability. they clearly dont know what the fuck it means

alistair being king but hating you at the end of da:o is wild when you get to the courtyard scene in awakening it's just like. we used to be friends. all the blood we shed together was invalidated in a monumental act of betrayal. we're both performing the camaraderie that used to be real for this audience. are we also performing it for ourselves. do you miss me.

#i am simply a believer that if you spare loghain there is an extremely understandable but impassable rift between the warden and alistair #but the king of ferelden and the hero of ferelden CAN'T have a public rift #orlais is KNOCKING on the border!! we just had a BLIGHT!! the crown has! to! be! strong! #that's the whole argument for keeping anora on the throne it's for political stability and crown authority #so if that happens you can't have the hero and the king in a public feud. instead i think you just get banquets where anora sits between #the two of them and they don't look at each other. it's MISERABLE. and then amaranthine.

(Edward IV) had two healthy young sons and died peacefully, in the belief that, with his enemies dead or compromised and his family loyalties assured, they would survive to adulthood, securing the future of the House of York. That this proved not to be the case should add a note of pathos to his history which has, in fact, been conspicuously absent.

Andrew Robert Whittle, “The Historical Reputation of Edward IV 1461-1725”

#edward iv #my post #I think that historians who compress or diminish Edward's reign by narrativizing the WotR or viewing it as a grand historical sequence #or viewing the renewing to conflict in 1483 as inevitable when it wasn't and certainly wasn't viewed that way at the time - #really miss the poignance of this and the impact it would have probably had with contemporaries. #It's like Horrox said: 'Even more fundamental was the perception that it had been Richard who after the stability of Edward IV's last years #had triggered the return to political conflict for what could be essentially seen as selfish reasons' #And it's really tragic because Edward IV seems to have really trusted his brother #(Elizabeth Woodville seems to have also trusted her brother-in-law) #Only for his brother to betray and destroy his family

#I say no! Because it's clearly against his wishes and I am a strong advocate of children's rights. #He should have been able to decide for himself whom to live with and I would've hoped the enlightened future world of the Federation #would have recognized that :( #Star Trek: Deep Space 9 #And now I'm wondering what everyone else thinks so! Poll time! #As I'm writing these tags after rewatching the episode I realize the decision may have been due to political stability reasons #(i.e. trying not to antagonize the Cardassians; a smart move at this point in the overarching story) #or even (as Sisko mentions to Pa'Dar toward the end) trying to encourage the Cardassians to take care of the actual orphans on Bajor too #but in that case I wish it'd have been made more clear in the episode #& the point would still stand: are either of those reasons sufficient justification for taking Rugal away from his family against his will? #Starky's Original Posts #polls #posts where you can really tell OP lived in constant fear of being either sent or taken away from their parents as a child #and it's getting in the way of enjoying what's truly important (garashir). sad!

Not hating on the players but I cannot get behind Fjord as the Marquis of Nicodranas wishcasting floating around. This man has taken an oath to forever roam the seas! He is addicted to getting on boats and getting his shit rocked on boats, and sinking the boat but it’s okay because there’s always a new boat out there for him, the Wildmother’s special little boy. Politics would not allow him to pursue his passions (pushing big red arcane buttons and casting Underwater Breathing on his whole crew every twenty-four hours). He needs a larger enclosure, preferably with haunted shipwrecks and fucked up creatures to upset.

He is admittedly a very charming man who could and would depose the current Marquis of Nicodranas, I’m just not sure he’d keep the post for himself. Here’s a short list of other people he’d install into power and then backseat Marquis whenever he’s in town.

1. Vandran. Worried about your old Captain in his retirement? Make him a local political figure and stack his court with loyalists. He definitely won’t get bored and you don’t have to worry about tariff laws.

2. Marion Lavorre. Nicodranas loves her anyways, she’s one of the most diplomatic people out there, and it would be very funny if The Gentleman escaped the law by becoming the local authority’s boy toy.

3. Marius LePual. You know who can be peer-pressured into absolutely anything and loves fancy shirts? Marius isn’t going to get swayed by some chump from the Cerberus Assembly. He saw Fjord get stabbed by a fish man at midnight he knows what side his bread is buttered on.

4. Kingsley. There’s no rule that the Marquis of Nicodranas can’t also be the Plank King. This sets off three years of furious cold war and ultimately mends the rift with the Revelry.

5. Veth Brenatto. She receives: a big fancy house, power, unlimited hors d’oeuvres, something to do when camps aren’t running. He receives: insider political intelligence, another way to make fun of Veth, the best guest room guaranteed and sealed with a blood pact.

#fjord stone #critical role #he’s an adventure lad with an adventure wife #one of his core aspects is this unrelenting need for change #he’d be good at politics but eventually I think his urge to dive into the unknown would take over #and he’d run head first into the sea like a 19th century novel protagonist #Nicodranas is too nice of a city it doesn’t have enough dark secrets and eldritch horrors for him to put his hands all over #the politicking probably doesn’t involve a lot of direct threats and menace…. #he can’t even swing his fancy sword around and point it at other nobles #maybe if Kingsley could stabilize relations with the revelry and he could be a pirate ambassador #that’s a political position full of fjord activities
