Abstract This study is an attempt to analyze EU policies towards the Southern Caucasus that deals basically with the changes in EU policies from 1999 to date. The EU policy towards the region can be analyzed in two phases. First, the study will discuss the EU support during the 1990- 1999 phase in relation to the economic and technical aid offered to the region. Second, the study attempts to analyze the EU's active policies since 1999 in terms of changes in EU policies as well as the causes of this change and the importance of the region for the EU. The study will conclude by asserting that political and economic stability cannot be reached without solving the problems in the region. In this context, the importance of the EU in the establishment of peace and stability in this framework are also discussed.
