Abstract: 

This paper outlines the current status of EU-Bilateral relations with the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan, Brazil, Canada, China, India, the Islamic Republic of Iran, Israel, Japan, Libya, Pakistan, Russia and the United States of America. By providing an overview of these cases, the paper seeks to detail the nature of the EU bilateral relations with these countries and provide information to be used as part of the wider EU-GRASP project. It does this, by firstly defining the parameters of the term bilateralism, and then detailing the relationship by looking at Cooperation on Regional Conflict, Cooperation on Terrorism, Cooperation on WMD, Cooperation on Migration, Cooperation on Human Rights and Cooperation on Energy Security and Climate Change where applicable.
