本文通过对欧盟官方文件和非正式文件的分析，以及对欧盟官员的访谈，认为欧盟战略伙伴关系并不具有战略性，其原因是：（1）并非所有伙伴都具有同等的战略性;（2）欧盟在大多数真正的战略问题上没有与其伙伴合作;（3）战略伙伴关系对这种关系没有结构或制度上的影响;（4）最后，欧盟本身在许多情况下根本不被视为战略伙伴。本文的结论是，最近恢复的关于战略伙伴关系的辩论是一个这是向前迈出的积极一步，现在正等待严格执行2010年9月欧洲理事会的重要结论。总体而言，本文建议反思欧盟的全球利益和优先事项，以寻求欧盟的大战略。真正的战略伙伴关系，正如本文所称，可以被视为欧盟与大国和新兴大国的（子）战略。除此之外，本文还对欧盟及其成员国如何将现有的战略伙伴关系转变为真正的战略伙伴关系提出了若干建议。
The paper provides an analysis of the EU strategic partnershipson the basis of a review of EU documents, official and informal, as well as a certain amount of interviews with European officials.It demonstrates that strategic partnerships are not so strategic when looked at up-close for a variety of reasons, including that 1) not every partner is equally strategic; 2) the EU is not cooperating with its partners on most truly strategic issues; 3) the strategic partnership has no structural or institutional impact on the relationship; 4) or, finally, the EU itself is simply not considered as a strategic partner in many cases.The paper concludes that the recent revival of debates on strategic partnerships is a positive step forward and that a strict implementation of the important conclusions of the 2010 September European Council is now awaited. Overall, this paper recommends reflecting on the EU’s global interests and priorities in search of the EU’s grand strategy. True strategic partnerships, as this paper brands them, could then be regarded as (sub-)strategies of the EU vis-a-vis great and emerging powers. In addition to this general recommendation, this paper makes several recommendations for the EU and itsMemberStatesto turn the existing strategic partnerships into true strategic partnerships.
