| Description: | The topicality of issue. Dynamics of international processes points the increasing meaning of regional safety systems in providing of stability in the world. Mutual dependence of regional and global organizations of collective safety and defense is intensifying.During the last years the meaning of EU as an independent figure in the modern general European safety system is intensifying. It is important to point that diplomacy stays the basement for mutual foreign and safety policy in EU, so that it is supported by trade, help, safety and defense if it’s necessary. This policy is directed firstly to solve the conflicts and reach the international understanding.The aim of the article is an analyzing of European safety and defense police (ESDP) as policy in process of further closer integration within EU and in the relationships with other international safety organizations. Questions of formation and development of common security and defense policy of the EU researched many foreign scholars, especially Tonroy B., T. Christiansen, S. Morshem, G. Makenstein and others in the writings of foreign policy.Contribution to the study of variable problems associated with European and Euro-Atlantic integration, released domestic scholars such as W.Govorukha, I.Hrytsiak, H.Nemyria, L.Prokopenko, A.Rudik, V.Streltsov, І.Shumlyayeva.The main material. In Western Europe, attempts to create a new collective security structures began soon after the Second World War. March 17, 1948 Belgium, UK, Luxembourg, the Netherlands and France signed the Brussels Pact - Agreement on cooperation in the economic, social and cultural fields, and collective self-defense. End of the Cold War and the transformation of the European Communities to the international union type structure led to the further significant changes in the relations between the countries of Europe. Particularly evident these processes affected the security relationship. At the European Council in Maastricht (9-10 December 1991) adopted a number of decisions relating to the common foreign and security policy states.Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP) of the European Union aims to form a common defense policy, which might eventually lead to a common defense system.CFSP developed as complementary, but not duplicating NATO structure. Its main task is to create capabilities to further empower the EU to participate in the settlement of regional and local conflicts, including outside Europe (in the Middle East, Africa and other regions of the world).The conclusions. In such way, in the last 20 years political and institutional changes in EU has created the premises for the new perception of “purely European” safety space. The development of European safety conception is characterized by complex approach, determination of qualitatively new threats and at the same time emphasizes the accepting of values which are mutual for European countries.1. Earlier in the EU state security relied entirely on the political defensive mechanism of NATO and the political mechanism of OSCE and the UN, the security problems are recently becoming further relevance for European policy and become "internal priority" of the European Union.2. Scope of soft security, i.e. the post-conflict settlement and assist in civil management, and is currently the most successful and best functioning element of ESDP. Scope of military solution is still considered controversial by most countries - EU members and has many obstacles to achieve efficient operation.3. Over the last decade, the EU was able to significantly develop its military component of ESDP as an important link. In particular, the creation and development of military forces allowed the EU to take over peacekeeping missions as in Europe and beyond.4. Over the last decade, the EU had 23 civilian missions and military operations on three continents. These include the following: peace of the after effects of Tsunami Aceh (Indonesia), the protection of refugees in Chad, the fight against piracy in Somalia and the Horn of Africa. This suggests that the EU's role as a player in the security becomes tangible.5. Motivation to improve the state of national security, stabilization of the internal and external situation, reducing dependence and further out from the influence of a number of other reasons make Ukraine more actively in the foreign and security policy. The general process of EU integration involves corresponding changes in all directions and areas, including security, so further participation in the CFSP have a positive attitude affect the positioning of our country in terms of geopolitical security space in Europe.
