First, the paper examines how the Council of Europe and European Union (EU) can support establishing preconditions with a&nbsp;sensitive and differentiating approach to regional and territorial policies and instruments. The article analyses the Regulation 1082/2006 (revised in 2013) on European grouping of territorial cooperation (EGTC), which has become a response to the lack of legal and institutional instruments of cross-border co-operations and ensured competencies for subnational authorities in Hungary. Finally, the paper summarizes how to respond to new alternatives in order to increase efficiency, legitimacy and transparency of cross-border territorial cooperation.</p> ER -
