Abstract

The aim of this paper is to reveal once again the how important is the aid offered by the European Union to the Member States as European funds. Rationally used, these funds will lead to the regional convergence and to socio-economical and territorial cohesion. Furthermore, I showed the factors leading to discrepancies within regions of EU’s area and how long it will take till these discrepancies will decrease, maybe being half.
