Abstract

This study aimed to clarify the level of influence of border regions and their role in promoting exports, as well as the importance and benefits of establishing these areas that can be used for integrated regional economic development. It highlights the economic role that can influence the prosperity of the state from various aspects (security, economy, politics, etc.). The study concludes that exports do not meet the required level of competitiveness. In this context, the authorities need to take the necessary measures to strengthen the export sector with the aim of improving product quality in order to enter the competitive arena.
