Abstract
The current debate on the Eastern Partnership (EaP), the EU's policy for building closer relations with post-Soviet states, has largely focused on the Vilnius summit on 28 to 29 November. The questions so far addressed mainly relate to the expected deliverables. However, as politically important as the deliverables are, they would mark not the end but only the start of a new phase.
