Zirkin ABOUT THE CENTER The Center is the living memorial of the United States of America to the nation’s twenty-eighth president, Woodrow Wilson. Congress established the Woodrow Wilson Center in 1968 as an international institute for advanced study, “symbolizing and strengthening the fruitful relation- ship between the world of learning and the world of public affairs.” The Center opened in 1970 under its own board of trustees. In all its activities the Woodrow Wilson Center is a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization, sup- ported financially by annual appropriations from Congress, and by the contributions of founda- tions, corporations, and individuals. Conclusions or opinions expressed in Center publications and programs are those of the authors and speakers and do not necessarily reflect the views of the Center staff, fellows, trustees, advisory groups, or any individuals or organizations that pro- vide financial support to the Center.

Kennan Fund of the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars’ Kennan Institute, and with the assistance of the US-Ukraine Foundation and the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) in Ukraine.We would like to thank the experts, offi- cials of state executive agencies in the city of Kyiv, and representatives of NGOs for their support and crucial data.We are deeply grateful to the non- traditional immigrants in the city of Kyiv,especially activists from their com- munity associations and interpreters, without whom it would not have been possible to conduct many of the interviews.Their kind assistance not only ensured the success of this study,but also attested to their goodwill, readiness, and interest in constructive cooperation. We would also like to thank Matilda Kuklish and Marta Olynyk for translat- ing Chapters 1–5 from the Ukrainian. | vii | INTRODUCTION n August 2004, Serhiy Brytchenko, the head of the Presidential Administration’s Migration Directorate, called attention to increasing immigration into Ukraine in an article appearing in Uryadovyy I 1 Kuryer, the newspaper of the Ukrainian Cabinet Ministers. Brytchenko reported that the number of people granted Ukrainian citizenship rose by 40 per cent during the first six months of 2004 in comparison to the sim- ilar period in 2003, and by 180 per cent in comparison to the first half of 2002.The Ministry of the Interior similarly observed an increase in appli- cations for permanent residence, the initial step towards Ukrainian citi- zenship. He continued on to note that the number of people adopting Ukrainian citizenship substantially surpassed the number relinquishing Ukrainian citizenship. Ukraine was, in short, becoming a country that was increasingly attractive to foreigners and persons without citizenship. Ukraine’s relatively liberal immigration and citizenship laws account for part of this attraction to be sure.There is more to this interesting story, however. With some notable exceptions, Ukraine provides arriving migrants from abroad with opportunities for peaceful and productive lives. This finding—surprising, perhaps, to many readers—becomes evident from an examination of how individual migrants live in the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv, as evidenced by the results of a 2001 survey of “nontradi- tional” migrants conducted by the Kennan Kyiv Project. This report reviews the results of that survey. As the young Ukrainian state emerged from the ruins of the Soviet Union during the early 1990s, it struggled with several tasks: among them, to establish its place in the shifting landscape of Europe, to create infrastructures necessary for administration of an independent country, and to determine questions of borders, citizenship, and identity.At the same time, the fall of the “Iron Curtain” beckoned to migrants pushed by war, strife, and economic uncertainty in their home countries and pulled by the promise of better lives elsewhere. Ukraine, now with increasingly open borders and no institutions with experience in state regulation of migration, became an arena for the mass relocation of people. Over a period of ten years, nearly two million people arrived in the country | 1 | seeking permanent residency. Most of these were ethnic Ukrainians and their descendants who were living outside of Ukraine when the Soviet Union collapsed.Approximately the same number of people left Ukraine for post-Soviet countries, mostly Russia, and another 600,000 immigrat- ed to other countries in Europe and North America.2 In addition, over the first decade of its existence as an independent state, the number of foreign immigrants to Ukraine from distant Asian and African countries has increased.This group of immigrants is consid- ered “nontraditional,”since they do not represent ethnic groups that his- torically have lived in Ukraine or the former Soviet Union.3 These immigrants arrive continuously; some intend to reside permanently in Ukraine, while others see the country as a stop-over on their way to Eastern or Western Europe.They have various legal statuses, from official refugees to illegal aliens. Some nontraditional immigrants first came to Ukraine well before 1991. During the Soviet era, international agreements allowed foreign stu- dents and workers to reside in Ukraine. After the break-up of the USSR some of them could not or did not want to return to their home coun- tries. Instead,

  • The Supreme Court of Ukraine Has Pointed out That in the Case When
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE The Supreme Court of Ukraine has pointed out that in the case when the heat of passion passed and then a person committed murder, the actions have to be qualified under Articles of the Criminal Code of Ukraine that provide responsibility for such crimes without attenuating circumstanced [2]. The new Supreme Court also has enough casework related to murders committed in the heat of passion. The most common situation is the necessity to determine whether to use Article 115 or 116. Taking into account all things considered, it is very important to find out all the circumstances of the case and pay attention to the emotional state of a person. The absence of the heat of passion means that Article 116 cannot be used. References: 1. Кримінальний кодекс України: чинне законодавство зі змінами та допов. станом на 12 лютого 2019 року: (ОФІЦ.
