Abstract

With reference to current intensive Eurasian economic cooperation and deepening interregionalism, the core topic of this article is the Asia-Europe Meeting (ASEM) and its current development. The author investigates to what extent the Asia-Europe Meeting has made progress in formulating its goals and priorities. As the related literature concerning the state of evolution is divided and focuses mainly on the future position of actors, the author conducts an elementary comparative qualitative analysis of the Final Chair's Statements of the last two summits (ASEM8 of 2010 and ASEM9 of 2012). The author attempts to uncover whether there has been progress in formal cooperation between Europe and Asia, working on the assumption that the Asia-Europe Meeting is by nature a non-binding intergovernmental dialogue based on consensus, which also corresponds to the level of specification of objectives and priorities. The Final Chair's Statement ASEM8 is used as a baseline for assessment. The article then evaluates parameters such as depth, concretization and scope of relevant topics, and also the extent to which the outlined cooperation platform is able to formulate flexibly answers to current challenges and issues of mutual relations.
