    • Poland leads Europe: Beata Stoczynska reflects on Poland's achievements as president of the European Union Council
    in New Zealand International Review , May 2012 ,  2012 ,  Stoczynska Beata
    Seven years after its accession to the European Union, Poland assumed the presidency of the Council in 201 I. It was confronted with a number of difficult issues arising from the economic crisis and the union's identity crisis. It aimed to rebuild confidence in the union and to prove that the union was able to respond efficiently and effectively to the challenges involving the euro zone, economic growth and unemployment. Among the highlights of Poland's presidency were the signature of Croatia's accession treaty and the conclusion of negotiations concerning an association and trade agreement with Ukraine. Economic governance of the union was also strengthened.
