Despite the fact that the EEC abbreviation has a single interpretation, there can be confusion in the network, and sometimes heated debate on this issue. There are few basic options: someone believes that the EEC is the Unified Energy System of Russia. Indeed, there is such an abbreviation, but in this sense it occurs with additional symbols of RAO (Russian joint-stock company), and more recently, CO - a system operator. If RAO UES or SO UES is written, then we are really talking about the energy system of our country, and for the symbols of UES the decoding will be “a single energy system”.
Another user opinion that you can often find that the EEC is the Eurasian Economic Union. However, this organization is shrinking differently. The generally accepted designation looks like this - the EAEU or EurAsEC. Both abbreviations are officially authorized and accepted in the international document flow.
What is the EEC? Decryption
In practice, the EEC and the EU are one and the same. In both cases, a united Europe is implied. To indicate the EEC, decoding in the international format is the Single Economic Community. The question arises, why from TVs and radio we hear mainly about the EU, they also write in newspapers and on the Internet. However, the last abbreviation appeared later, in fact replacing the previously used form of the EES. This happened after the conclusion of the Maastricht Treaty in 1992, when the allied relations of European countries were legally consolidated, a single European currency was adopted and a number of other important steps were taken to strengthen the European Union.
EEC: abbreviation and history of accession of states
In English, the symbols look like EEC - European Economic Community. This will help to understand what is the decoding of the EEC - Russian abbreviation.
On the territory of the European Union, all the languages of the participating countries have an equal right to use, however, it is customary to use three main languages in the workflow - English, German and French. Since English is considered international, the most common English name is EEC, which subsequently (since 1992) became the EU - European Union.
For the EEC, the decoding and history of creation are closely related to the first attempts to form the European Union, which date back to the 50s of the last century. Although progressive minds have long nurtured globalist ideas, the first practical steps were taken in 1951, when six European countries created an alliance that was aimed at ensuring energy security throughout Europe. The European Coal and Steel Association includes the largest economies in Europe: Belgian, German, French, Italian. The Netherlands and the tiny, but by no means poor, Luxembourg also joined. The English version and decoding of the EEC abbreviation of that time sounded like ECSC - European Coal and Steel Community.
From a steel concern in the EEC
In 1957, the European Economic Community was officially created (decoding of the EEC), about which the participating countries signed an agreement. The meaning of the new education was to gradually increase the rights of the central apparatus and delegate to it the administrative functions of the countries included in the association.
EEC today
The European Union in its current form has already become a supranational entity, which fully represents its member countries in the international arena, has a common economy, currency and a security system. Officially, the EU includes 28 states along with Great Britain, which in June 2016, by universal suffrage, headed for the exit from the European Union.
The victory of anti-globalists in Foggy Albion was minimal, the margin was less than 2%, however, the legitimacy of the vote is beyond doubt and the British government is now preparing for the Brexit events.
Earlier, Greenland had already left the EU, but it was only an autonomous territory, and not a full-fledged state. Therefore, the precedent with the UK can be considered the first and so far the only one. Although today, residents of many European countries declare their desire to return to an era when there was no single currency market and the euro, believing that participation in the European Union is unprofitable for them.
