After, economic indicators (real GDP growth rate, inflation, unemployment, household consumption, investment, current account, government budget and deficit) of the three countries will be compared to draw a conclusion. 2 Country Specs 2.1 Finland 2.1.1 Background Finland was a province and then a grand duchy under Sweden from the 12th to the 19th centuries, and an autonomous grand duchy of Russia after 1809. It won its complete independence in 1917. During World War II, it was able to successfully defend its freedom and resist invasions by the Soviet Union albeit with some loss of territory.

A member of the
British sailors were among those who gave their lives defending Estonia's freedom during the conflict. Some of these men are laid to rest in Tallinn. The aid came not only in the military presence of the war ships, but also in technical, financial and moral support. The technical expertise of the military advisers 5 from England contributed largely to the outcome of the war between Estonia and Soviet Union. After the war the military cooperation developed into cultural and economic relations. For instance during the time between the wars, approximately 30% of Estonia's exports went to the UK. The other big English speaking country, United States recognised the Republic of Estonia on 28 July 1922. The first Estonian diplomatic mission in the United States was opened in the same year. The Second World War and the occupation of Estonia resulted in loss of contacts.

Yet, the reality quickly challenged this view. The developments of party politics in post-Soviet Russia have accurately been described in terms of a pendulum effect, as in the 2000s, Russia's party system did finally begin to take for, but with a remarkable twist. Following the break of one-party rule, Russia's party system became strongly fragmented - during the 1995 parliamentary elections, 43 parties competed for popular votes (McFault 1996: 90)

Due to the available natural resources Estonian economy largely relies on the branches related to the forest; Estonian energy sector is based on oil shale, a resource quite rare elsewhere in the world.

If some goods manufacturing is legal in one country, it will be others too. But to these, who are not in EU, have to pay pretty high prize to trade in member states. Sixth to fight international crime and terrorism, there is assure cooperation with member country's police, border service, Migration Boar and courts. One state decree of the court must apply in other states too. There are lot's of limitation, requirement and new laws which accomplish seems a bit weird or trifle.

the broader European political arena. As a large member state, Turkey will have a powerful voice in the European Parliament and the Council of Ministers where decisions are mostly made by qualified majority. This shift of power from the Western Christian capitals to the eastern Islamic frontier is already causing skepticism and reactions in some countries (Joseph, J.S., 2006). TURKEY AND CYPRUS Turkey has unresolved issues and unstable relations or no relations at all with some EU member states. Greece and Cyprus are cases in point. In recent years, Greek- Turkish relations have improved considerably and Greece's policy towards Turkish accession is a positive one, but this depends on the political barometer over the Aegean and Cyprus. The fact that Turkey does not recognize the Republic of Cyprus a full member of the EU since May 2004 has been a source of legal controversies and political complications. (Joseph, J.S
European Union economic 9th May 1951, six Western-Europe countries (Belgium, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, France and Germany) signed a treaty to run their heavy industries coal and steel under a common management. From this economic cooperation agreement, European Union has grown up. For today, the aim of this union has made 180º turn but the reason why more and more countries are joining it is still same to rise the economy. So how does it work? European Union is functioning like an independent country. It collects taxes to reach its objectives. Taxes are collected mainly from member countries GDP (1,1% of countries budget) but as well the import duties on good bought into EU. Also, every

Public International Law is a system of law, different from domestic law. Why is this system unique? Usually law regulates relations between people, people and the state etc, PIL regulates relations between states. Thats why PIL is important for international relation students. PIL influences the life of everybody, it doesn't regulate people directly but indirectly (through the decisions of the states), because it's everywhere. It's like air. E.g. when you want to send a letter to Brazil, you put a stamp from your own country and send it from your post office and the letter gets delivered. Why is this so easy, because there are certain international conventions that

Living in Estonia has many of its good sides, for instance it is a secure place from nature disasters and it has a beautiful nature. Although, when not to look only through rose-tinted glasses, there are still some minuses in country’s organization. So, what are the beneficial and negative sides of living in Estonia? To start with, a big advantage is a great location between Scandinavia and prosperous Russia which ensures the connections, networks and possible trading options. Close connections and pendulum migration have tightened the cooperation between the countries. For instance, Estonia and Finland have developed common economic space. Right now Estonia's most important trading partners are Finland, Sweden, Russia and Germany which Estonia is mainly influenced by. Maintaining good relations between neighboring countries and being a member
intra-EU trade2 Is there a measure in form of action or inaction? Measure in question is in form of action - the parliament adopted the prohibitive law. Articles 34-35 TFEU are often characterised as a defence right which can be invoked against 1 Case 7/68 Commission v Italy [1968] ECR 423 2 Case 8/74 Dassonville [1974] ECR 837, paragraph 5. national measures creating unjustified obstacles to cross-border trade. Accordingly, infringements of Article 34 TFEU seem to presuppose activity on the part of a state. In this sense, the measures falling within the scope of Articles 34-35 TFEU consist primarily of binding provisions of Member States’ legislation. Can this measure be attributed to a public authority? Yes. The law was adopted by the Parliament and has the binding power. Is the measure restrictive in the sense of Dassonville formula? Yes. In Dassonville judgment, the Court of Justice took the view that „all trading rules enacted by

Britta Kase 143123HAKB Summary The booklet offers a brief, simple explanation how the European Union is relevant to us in our everyday life, how it affects our lives in many areas and how can we benefit from it. The booklet gives also a very readable overview of EU’s history and how its member states have come together.

National Health Service. According to the National Institute of Economic and Social Research, if the UK opted not to leave, its economy would’ve grown annually by £70 billion in the long term, which is a lot more than what Mr. Prime Minister admitted to allocating for the NHS. Judging by these numbers, the loss will be big and it’s going to have a significant effect on them. As for the EU, it will lose a country that played a big part in Europe’s economy and annual GDP will fall by about 5%. EU nations’ exports will take a big hit, as some countries depend a lot on exports to the UK. For example, Ireland’s exports will be majorly affected, since about 14% are sent directly to Britain. They would have to come up with new deals that could diminish Ireland’s export profits. Also, a lot of people living and working in the UK are sending money home to other EU countries.
