Despite its global acceptance, some national courts of final instance keep challenging this principle, invoking complex reasoning that often includes multiple grounds for its refusal. Using mainly a content analysis of the case-law and comparative legal method, the paper examines the possibility of a new balance between the principle of the supremacy of EU law and the specificities of national legal orders. The preconditions for striking this new balance are threefold. First, the national courts should apply the concept of constitutional identity more carefully and in a more restrictive manner. Second, the EU law itself has to be formulated in better and clearer terms, as a result of a less cumbersome legislative process. Finally, without a less hesitant common approach of the European political elites in reforming its functioning, the weaknesses of the Union’s institutional and decision-making architecture would continue to undermine its legal system.","PeriodicalId":151281,"journal":{"name":"Europe in Changes: The Old Continent at a New Crossroads","volume":"96 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124615784","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the post-bipolar world order, which is marked by strong US domination after the collapse of the USSR, Russia’s influence has weakened. However, by stabilizing the internal situation and then consolidating its position in international relations, Russia has returned to the scene and used the military, political (including soft power and cultural ties) and economic power (which is primarily visible in the energy sector) to restore its presence in the region of the Balkans, which is especially noticeable after 2008. However, due to almost two decades of American domination, the regional security dynamics have changed greatly in relation to the time of bipolarity, and part of the Balkan states that belonged to the Eastern Bloc or emerged from the disintegration of Yugoslavia have already become NATO members (Bulgaria, Romania, Albania, Croatia, Slovenia, Montenegro, and North Macedonia). In such circumstances, the United States has an advantage. They are a key factor in the regional security of the Balkans and they are trying to prevent the growth of Russian influence. This research will explain the relationship between NATO and Russia, their long-term goals in the region, as well as the causes of lasting rivalry.
