This paper is part of a research project that makes a comparative assessment of the potential for supra-national and international settlement in four secessionist conflicts at the periphery of the EU: the secessionist crises in Cyprus, Serbia and Montenegro, Moldova, and Abkhazia. It focuses on the potential role that institutional models from the EU and its members and partners can play in the design of solutions to such conflicts - particularly the federation institutions such as the Organization for Security and Cooperation (OSCE) and the Council of Europe.
