Process of integration includes key
components

•        Trade component- By trade component we mean in fact trade regime or in practice elimination of trade barriers.

•        Regulatory component- This component has two dimensions – shallow and deep. By shallow dimension we mean that partners are solving issues related to trade, while deep integration means in fact that cooperation on regulatory issues goes beyond pure trade issues.

•        Political component- At the moment this component is one of the most important one. In fact this aspect refers to the problem of striking delicate balance between liberalization at the national level and reaching certain level of supranational in terms of managing different integration schemes
