It is a story created by dozens of professionals with their own standpoints and unique Acting NHSU Head expertise, who at the same time share a vision of the future and the desired result. in 2020 Oksana MOVCHAN In 2020, Ukraine fully launched the Program of Medical Guarantees (PMG) for the first time and shifted health financing towards contracts. The entire system works in electronic format; we have no paper- based documents. We contract only autonomized Dear colleagues! We often hear that in order to make enterprises. This is important because healthcare changes irreversible, we need to invest in institutions. facilities must become independent entities before These are the recommendations of international they can modernize. partners; we hear it from various government officials. We keep repeating these words to ourselves We have also created a unified coding system and can in the National Health Service of Ukraine (NHSU). cost services. Now, one service has one name and code in the electronic system. Previously, the same Institutions should not exist on paper only. They service had different names and codes. This caused should be created in the right way; they should have confusion in clinical protocols, as well as a mess in supervisory boards and be impartial. Managers and statistics and in payment. Now our rules are unified, employees of these institutions should be selected transparent and clear. through transparent and clear procedures. The NHSU is one of the best examples of such an institution, When you implement complicated structural because we have all this; there is a supervisory board, changes, you bear huge responsibility because you and all three hundred employees were selected are making decisions that may affect the health of through open competition. 37 million people.

We will achieve these goals in the coming years. They 2020 was the year of all such risks. All bombs have must be approached with dignity so as not to lose the detonated. However, we have achieved the goal. This idea of transformation and the task at hand. 3 There are two catalysts for change in health. One: health care contracts under the PMG between healthcare facilities and the NHSU. These contracts use performance-based financing to ensure a fair distribution of funds in health and to support the Acting NHSU Head development of health care providers that work in the Andrii VILENSKYI interests of their patients and create opportunities for the support and development of their own employees. Two: open data in eHealth.

ECE/CEP/133 UNITED NATIONS PUBLICATION Sales No. 07.II.E.6 ISBN 978-92-1-116958-4 ISSN 1020-4563 iii Foreword Environmental Performance Reviews (EPRs) for countries in transition were initiated by Environment Ministers at the second “Environment for Europe” Conference in Lucerne, Switzerland in 1993. As a result, the UNECE Committee on Environmental Policy decided to make the EPRs a part of its regular programme. Ten years later, at the fifth Ministerial Conference “Environment for Europe” (Kiev, 2003), the Ministers confirmed that the UNECE programme of EPRs had made it possible to assess the effectiveness of the efforts of countries with economies in transition to manage their environment. The Programme has addressed tailor-made recommendations to the Governments concerned on improving environmental management to reduce their pollution load, to better integrate environmental policies into sectoral policies and to strengthen cooperation with the international community. The Ministers also reaffirmed their support for the EPR programme as an important instrument for countries with economies in transition, and they decided that the programme should proceed with a second cycle of reviews.

  • Ukraine Nuclear Fuel Cycle Chronology
    Ukraine Nuclear Fuel Cycle Chronology Last update: April 2005 This annotated chronology is based on the data sources that follow each entry. Public sources often provide conflicting information on classified military programs. In some cases we are unable to resolve these discrepancies, in others we have deliberately refrained from doing so to highlight the potential influence of false or misleading information as it appeared over time. In many cases, we are unable to independently verify claims. Hence in reviewing this chronology, readers should take into account the credibility of the sources employed here. Inclusion in this chronology does not necessarily indicate that a particular development is of direct or indirect proliferation significance. Some entries provide international or domestic context for technological development and national policymaking. Moreover, some entries may refer to developments with positive consequences for nonproliferation. 2003-1993 1 August 2003 KRASNOYARSK ADMINISTRATION WILL NOT ALLOW IMPORT OF UKRAINE'S SPENT FUEL UNTIL DEBT PAID On 1 August 2003, UNIAN reported that, according to Yuriy Lebedev, head of Russia's International Fuel and Energy Company, which is managing the import of spent nuclear fuel to Krasnoyarsk Kray for storage, the Krasnoyarsk administration will not allow new shipments of spent fuel from Ukraine for storage until Ukraine pays its $11.76 million debt for 2002 deliveries. —"Krasnoyarskiy kray otkazhetsya prinimat otrabotannoye yadernoye toplivo iz Ukrainy v sluchaye nepogasheniya 11.76 mln. dollarov dolga," UNIAN, 1 August 2003; in Integrum Techno, www.integrum.com. 28 February 2002 RUSSIAN REACTOR FUEL DELIVERIES TO COST $246 MILLION IN 2002 Yadernyye materialy reported on 28 February 2002 that Russian Minister of Atomic Energy Aleksandr Rumyantsev and Ukrainian Minister of Fuel and Energy Vitaliy Gayduk signed an agreement under which Ukraine will buy reactor fuel worth $246 million from Russia in 2002.

  • Fragment of a 17Th-Century Glass Wine Goblet
    16 Canadio-Byzantina 23 (January 2012) REPORTS Excavations at Baturyn in 2011 During the summer of 2011 the Canada-Ukraine archaeological expedition resumed its annual excavations in Baturyn, Chernihiv province, Ukraine. The Canadian Institute of Ukrainian Studies (CIUS), the Pontifical Institute of Mediaeval Studies (PIMS) in Toronto, and the Shevchenko Scientific Society of America (SSS-A) co-sponsor the project. Prof. Zenon Kohut, Director of CIUS, heads this undertaking; Prof. Orest Popovych, President of SSS-A, is its patron and academic adviser; Dr. Volodymyr Kovalenko, University of Chernihiv, leads the expedition. Dr. Volodymyr Mezentsev (CIUS), Prof. Martin Dimnik (PIMS), and Huseyin Oylupinar, Ph.D.candidate (University of Alberta), are also engaged in the excavation and the publication of its findings. The 2011 expedition recruited 75 students and scholars from the universities and museums of Chernihiv, Nizhyn, Kyiv, Sumy, Baturyn, Hlukhiv, Melitopol, Chernivtsi in Ukraine, and Toronto and Edmonton in Canada. From 1669 to 1708, Baturyn was the capital of the Cossack Hetman state that reached its zenith under the rule of the enlightened Hetman Ivan Mazepa (1687-1709). In alliance with Sweden he attempted to liberate central Ukraine from increasing Moscow domination but the Russian army suppressed his insurrection and destroyed Baturyn in 1708. This year’s expedition continued excavating the remnants of Mazepa’s fortified court located in the Baturyn suburb of Honcharivka. Around 1699 he commissioned the erection of the three-story masonry palace; it was unrivalled in the Cossack realm and became his principal residence. Archaeological and architectural investigations of the palace’s remnants in 2003-10 have established that it was built and adorned in a mature Vilnius (Wilno) Baroque style and enriched with the ornate polychrome glazed ceramic revetments of the Kyivan Baroque style.

  • Life and Times of Georgy Voronoi
    Life and Times of Georgy Vorono¨ı (1868-1908) Halyna Syta1 & Rien van de Weygaert2 1 Drahomanov National Pedagogical University, 9 Pirohova Str, 01030 Kyiv, Ukraine 2 Kapteyn Astronomical Institute, University of Groningen, the Netherlands [email protected]; [email protected] I know minutes not of complacency, not of pride – they all come later, – but moments when the mind completely grips the idea which before kept slipping off like a small ball. Then I would forget about my existence Summary. Georgy Theodosiyovych Vorono¨ı(1868-1908) is famous for his seminal contri- butions to number theory, perhaps mostly those involving quadratic forms and Voronoi tes- sellations. He was born and grew up in the town of Zhuravka in the Ukraine, at the time part of the Russian Empire. Having studied at St. Petersburg University under the supervision of Andrey Markov, in 1894 he became a professor of pure mathematics at the University of War- saw. In his career he published six large memoirs and six short papers, each of which were so profound and significant that they left a deep trace in modern number theory. Together with Minkowski, he can be considered as the founder of the Geometry of Numbers. In this contribution, a brief sketch will be given of his life, work and legacy. 1 Ukrainian Origins Georgy Theodosiyovych Vorono¨ı 1 was born on April 28, 1868,2 in the small town of Zhuravka in the Poltava Gubernia, in Russia (now the village Zhuravka belongs 1 G.Vorono¨ıhimself used this transliteration of his name, that is ”¨ı” at the end of the word, in arXiv:0912.3269v1 [math.HO] 16 Dec 2009 the papers written by him in French, whereas the experts of Voronoi diagrams used to write ”Voronoi” in accordance with the term ”Voronoi diagram”.

The author researched the major newspapers that shaped public opinion in the region at the time. In researching the press, the author identified some of the key areas linked to deploying a new ideology – and, as a consequence, a new worldview – in society (e.g., anti-Semitic agitation, all-out criticism of the Soviet system, touting the delights of living in Germany, stimulating relocation to Germany for work, etc.). To this day, there remains open the issue of the locals’ real attitude toward the occupiers, as well as the reasons behind the local population’s active collaboration with the Germans. For the most part, this was associated with some of the locals having had a problem with the law during the pre-war period, some having fallen victim to Stalin's repressions, some having been variously oppressed by Soviet power, some just trying to survive in tough wartime conditions, etc.
