Abstract.
Sport as part of the agreements
between the European Union and non-member countries. In connection with the
development of sports policy and sports diplomacy of the European Union, it is
important to explore the individual possibilities of using sport in foreign
policy, public diplomacy, and the field of external relations. Recent
advancements in the development of sports diplomacy and the use of sport as a
tool in foreign policy suggests that cooperation in the field of sport will
rarely be part of agreements between the EU and non-member countries. The aim of
this paper is to identify references to sport and cooperation in the field of
sport in the various agreements between the European Union and non-member
countries and to subsequently identify the implementation and fulfilment of the
provisions of these agreements. The paper shows that the absence of references
on cooperation in sport in the agreements between the EU and non-member
countries are not an obstruction for cooperation in the mentioned area. There
are many tools and means through which such cooperation between various actors
from EU Member States and non-Member countries can take place.
