The paper raises the issue of the European identity crisis and its influence on the European Union foreign policy towards the Post-soviet states. The author examines the prospects of introducing to the European citizens' consciousness the feeling of belonging to the united supranational society. The article claims that today the potential of forming the European identity has exhausted itself and that the European political elites should come up with new solutions to the problem of European identity crisis. The author aims to consider the influence of the European identity crisis on the EU foreign policy towards six Post-soviet states (Ukraine, Moldova, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Belarus and Georgia) within the framework of the program “Eastern Partnership”. The paper proves that due to the European identity crisis the EU has lost much of its ‘ideological appeal’ and is no more an ideal model of the socio-cultural integration for the above mentioned Post-soviet states.
