The Eastern Partnership is about EU integration, about the six countries moving closer to the EU’s values, legislation, and ways of working, and about the EU being there to support and help this convergence. In Russia, there is a perception that is sometimes fostered which suggests that the Partnership is directed against it.
东部伙伴关系旨在推动欧盟融合，让六国贴近欧盟的价值观、法律和工作方式，并让欧盟支持和协助这种融合。俄国有时会出现这样的看法，认为这种合作关系是与它作对。但这当然是没有依据的。相反，和土耳其一样，我们也欢迎俄国参与伙伴关系多边领域的相关活动。
