- Abstract
The process of European integration, which began in the last century, continues to this day. Having determined the vector of their development, Western countries created a powerful national association of the European Union in the form of a new regulated structure with its own ideology based on the so-called ‘European values’. Since most of the economic and political potential of Europe is concentrated within the EU, it is reasonable to understand the mutual influence of the processes of expanding the borders of the community and deepening European association. In addition, it is worth realizing deeper processes that accompany the unification of Europe. They are inextricably linked with the geopolitical factor and the role of the United States as a world leader. This article focuses on the strategic role of Bulgaria in various European Union development processes. The main focus here is on retrospective analysis of such aspects as economic, social and geopolitical. As information sources of the first two aspects, statistical data from organizations such as Eurostat, Comtrade, World Bank and various public institutions in Bulgaria are selected.
