the role of European union is to give harmonization of national laws in the EU
Cypus is the only European Union member in the Middle East. All other European Union countries (as could be guessed) are in Europe. Turkey is a Middle Eastern country that has tried to accede to the European Union, but has not had its accession accepted. To read more about that read the Related Question. The European Union is very active politically in the Middle East, often serving as a bloc to negotiate against different Middle Eastern countries and therefore make negotiations more favorable in the Middle East.
Yes, in fact, every country shows signs of joining the European Union in the future, with the exception of the obvious, Switzerland. Especially in the East, as you will find more countries from the East joining in the years to come. The European Union's goal is to spread east as well.

No Eastern European countries were members of the European Union in 1993. The EU did not expand to the east until 2004 when nine Eastern European countries (with one Western European nation) joined the EU.
In 1990, West Germany, a member of what is now the European Union, reunited with East Germany, which was not a member. Together they became Germany and are part of the European Union. You could say the East Germany joined, but East Germany did not exist when re-unification occurred. So there was no addition to the membership as such. 12 countries were members before the re-unification, and after the re-unification of Germany, there were still 12 countries. All that happened was that the structure of one member changed, and became known as Germany.In 1990, West Germany, a member of what is now the European Union, reunited with East Germany, which was not a member.
