Many economists and politicians argue that the trade between countries of the Balkan region is among the most important aspects of the development of South Eastern Europe. There are several important points to this assertion, one of which is certainly the fact that by increasing the trade among each other, Balkan countries improve their economies and employee more people. Another aspect is that the Balkan countries that are not in the EU as of yet, are aiming to improve trade among themselves by lowering tariffs. This is the case with CEFTA agreement supported by the European Commission. Moreover, CEFTA members are essentially preparing themselves for the EU accession thus continuing the tradition of the original CEFTA, whose founding members are now in the EU. There is also the fact that by having a common market, the countries can improve domestic demand but also improve exports to the EU and to third countries.
