This paper is devoted to the conception of European integration presented in the political programme of the European People’s Party (EPP), which is a federation of European Christian-Democratic and conservative parties. EPP is not a confession party but it defines itself as “a political party of values”. And these values are determined by Judeo-Christian and democratic traditions of European civilization. Members of EPP want to see Europe as “a community of values”. Canon of values concerns: freedom and responsibility, solidarity, justness, equality, subsidiary and democracy. They create unique and coherent axiological system. However freedom is the most important value, which is a base for others. Presented in EPP’s political programme system of values is foundation for specific proposals of European integration, whose European federation of states and regions is real aim.
