    Kazakhstan Missile Chronology Last update: May 2010 As of May 2010, this chronology is no longer being updated. For current developments, please see the Kazakhstan Missile Overview. 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. 2009-1947 March 2009 On 4 March 2009, Kazakhstan signed a contract to purchase S-300 air defense missile systems from Russia. According to Ministry of Defense officials, Kazakhstan plans to purchase 10 batteries of S-300PS by 2011. Kazakhstan's Air Defense Commander Aleksandr Sorokin mentioned, however, that the 10 batteries would still not be enough to shield all the most vital" facilities designated earlier by a presidential decree. The export version of S- 300PS (NATO designation SA-10C Grumble) has a maximum range of 75 km and can hit targets moving at up to 1200 m/s at a minimum altitude of 25 meters.

ABSTRACT The dissertation explores the European Union’s (EU) migration relations with Ukraine and Russia since the break-up of the Soviet Union, up until 2011. Utilizing a comparative research design and discursive analytical approach, it critically examines the external dimension of the EU’s immigration policies in order to understand how the EU’s “migration diplomacy” affects the cooperating countries’ politics and policies on migration. The research evaluates the EU’s impact by analyzing the EU-Ukraine and EU-Russia co-operation on irregular migration and the mobility of their citizens through the prism of the domestic discourses and policies on international migration.

  • Elena Zinkevych the Ukrainian Symphony - Phantom Or Reality?
    Elena Zinkevych The Ukrainian Symphony - Phantom or Reality? During the 20th century the phenomenon of an autonomous Ukrai- nian symphony was not recognized widely. Paradoxically it was also not taken into consideration by the researchers of the symphonic process in the USSR. Thus in Mark Aranovskyi's book "The Sym- phonic Searches"1 not one name of a Ukrainian symphonist is mentioned and the reader is led to the conclusion that it lacks sym- phonists in the Ukraine. Completely neglected were the Ukrainian symphony's historic, social and immanently musical contexts. Possible explanations for such a situation could be: 1. The late birth of the genre: The first valuable Ukrainian sympho- nies were written by Levko Revutsky (1916-1918) and Boris Lyatoshinsky (1918-1920). 2. Its existence within a system called "the Soviet music". Firstly the system was closed and eliminated any interchange with the outer musical world, secondly it was fettered by the dogmas of socialist realism. Both of these interconnected factors (the artificial hermetization and the implantation of "the regime creativity") slowed down the forma- tion of an Ukrainian symphony. In principle all national schools of the former USSR were subdued to the influence of the mentioned factors, but in each different case the general directions were cor- rected by the local conditions. Especially in the Ukraine all the de- crees issued from the Centre were particularly exaggerated. The fo1- lowing proverb expresses this tendency: When in Moscow one cuts off nails, in Kiev one chops off fingers. All actions inspired by the Centre were accomplished by the Ukrainian communist party management with a particular zeal to demonstrate its loyalty.
