Abstract
After the 2003 crisis, born of profound differences over the United States's policy on Iraq, 2004 was, for the European Union and its member states, a year of political reconciliation (culminating in enlargement to 25), renewed initiative in foreign policy (towards countries such as Iran, Turkey and Ukraine) and diversification of the ESDP (development of civilian crisis management). In other words, a very good year for the European Union's role and resonance in the world.
