The EU launched the Eastern Partnership (EaP) on 7 May 2009 at a Summit with its Eastern Partners. The Eastern Partnership sets out an ambitious path for deeper relations with Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Republic of Moldova and Ukraine, through a bilateral and a multilateral dimension. Part of the Eastern Partnership activities was the “Eastern Partnership - Council of Europe Facility Project on Good Governance and Fight against Corruption”, implemented from March 2011 until December 2014.

The current “EU-CoE Programmatic Cooperation Framework (PGG) in the Eastern Partnership countries: Fight against corruption and fostering good governance / Fight against money-laundering” is a continuation of the previous assistance. It combines a Regional project (involving all six Eastern Partnership countries) with additional National projects in four Eastern Partnership countries for a total amount of 3.8 million Euros.
