| Summary / Abstract (Note) | The “essence” of the EU is essentially all about subjecting inter-state relations to the rule of law and it is but natural for the Union to preach and practice multilateralism, both in domestic and external fronts. The EU’s preference for multilateralism remains at two levels. At the first level, the Union expects that the third countries must have direct relations with it at the multilateral level than with its member states bilaterally and at the second stage, the EU professes multilateralism at the international level with the UN at its centre. |
