Ukraine should establish cooperation with the format of the Bucharest Nine at the institutional level Roman Kot Recent events, such as the return of the Russian delegation to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, consolidation by Germany of the irreversibility of the “Nord Stream 2” project, or the resumption of Western European companies’ investments in Russia, will again raise the issue of differences in points of view on the security situation in Central and Eastern Europe and, in particular, on Russia’s role in the region. This, along with the dynamics of electoral processes in the EU, shows the “old” Europe’s growing willingness to compromise in relations…

Призначення керівництва Єврокомісії та у окремих міністерствах Німеччини
Коментарі німецьких, австрійських і швейцарських аналітиків Сергій Польовик Увагу авторитетних європейських аналітиків та ЗМІ привертають останні події з обрання нового президента Європейської комісії, яким несподівано для багатьох політиків стала представниця Німеччини, та з призначення на вакантну таким чином посаду Федерального міністра оборони Німеччини ще однієї жінки. Коментарі аналітиків про такі ключові переміни викликані перш за все тією провідною в ЄС роллю Німеччини, що відчутно впливає на геополітичні процеси європейського континенту. Адже такі переміни сприймаються неоднозначно через загострення протистоянь всередині ЄС і, зокрема, обструкціоністську позицію окремих його членів (географічних сусідів України — Угорщини,…

Economy in Exchange for Sovereignty
Should We Stake On Russia? Victor Hvozd Despite the clear constitutional definition of Ukraine’s external course, the election campaign in our country again gave relevance to this issue. Thus, despite Russia’s continuation of its armed aggression against Ukraine, a number of Ukrainian political forces openly advocate restoration of relations with the aggressor without any commitments on its part. In support of this, the arguments are put forward about “positive effects” of such a step, which supposedly would contribute to the development of the Ukrainian economy and increase the standard of living…

Oleksiy Volovych Over the past 20 years, China has increased its economic presence in Africa, and this trend will continue in the future, as it is extremely attractive for both China itself and for many African countries. The predicted critical shortage of natural resources for China’s economy and the need to expand global demand for Chinese goods make Africa a strategic asset for economic cooperation and guarantees of economic security of the Celestial. In our view, China’s economic and military presence on the African continent has become so large-scaled that the USA’s possible attempts “to push it out” of Africa are clearly doomed to fail, or they can provoke a planetary…

It is necessary for Ukraine to form its own civilized, but at the same time, aggressive offensive policy in foreign relations
More >>New Manifestations and Trends in the European Politics of Some of Our European Geopolitical Neighbors
Serhiy Polyovyk Today, the system of existing institutes of the European community is subject to testing. Especially regarding the strength of common values that have become familiar in recent decades, and which may seem long-lasting. But such stability of the present can suddenly change and in relations there will be mutual distrust, hostility and intransigence. Taking into consideration the Western-European media analytics, it is now advisable for Ukraine to actively pursue pragmatic international relations. And to remember about the experience gained, about enemies’ encroachments, and to form our own civilized, but at the same time, aggressive offensive policy in foreign relations. That will allow to become a geopolitical actor that offers clear and mutually…
