This article addresses the issue of creating effective mechanisms and instruments for the formation of the environmental-economic policy of European CIS countries. The author points up a convergence in approaches to ecological planning between Ukraine, the Russian Federation, Belarus, Moldova, and a number of new EU members. That said, the author reveals that the pace of rapprochement has been quite slow, and, instead of the unification of economic activities, we are witnessing an increase in disproportions in the process of regulating common ecological systems. The author proposes ways to optimize the environmental-economic policy of the countries within the region in conjunction with that pursued in EU countries.
