Treaties of Friendship and Cooperation Between Poland and the Former Soviet Republics: A Comparative Legal Analysis
Abstrak
The following paper undertakes a comparative legal analysis of the treaties of friendship and cooperation signed by Poland with six post-Soviet countries: Belarus, Georgia, Moldova, Russia, Ukraine, and Uzbekistan. Each of the treaties examined in the paper has a similar structure (preamble, main part, final provisions) and covers several common issues, including declarations of mutual respect for sovereignty and territorial integrity, conducting political consultations, and the development of economic, scientific, cultural, and other forms of cooperation. The analysis of the treaties revealed both common elements and those specific to individual bilateral relations. Significant differences occur in the scope of detailed regulations and emphasis on particular areas of cooperation, conditioned by the specificity of bilateral relations. The article contributes to the research on legal instruments of Polish foreign policy towards the post-Soviet states after 1991.
