The Canadian Institute of Ukrainian Studies (CIUS) commemorated its 40th anniversary in 2016. A large sign was placed outside Pembina Hall, on the main University of Alberta campus where it was housed on the fourth floor that said simply: “CIUS – 40 Years of Excellence.” There were a number of events over the year but the highlight was a conference on October 14 and 15 entitled: “Ukrainian Studies in Canada: Texts and Contexts.” The day before the conference, Taras Kuzio, whom Kravchenko had appointed a Research Associate on a three-year contract, offered a talk on “Is Donbas part of Ukraine?” Kuzio was unhappy because his contract had not been renewed, partly as a result of his YouTube broadcasts, several of which targeted CIUS among his usual victims of scholars who in his view were hostile to Ukraine, “Putinophiles,” or fellow travellers. The Conference had a formidable array of scholars working on Ukraine throughout their scholarly careers. It included from Canada: Volodymyr Kravchenko, Paul Robert Magocsi, Serhii Yekelchyk, Bohdan Kordan, Manoly Lupul, Myroslav Shkandrij, Frank Sysyn, Zenon Kohut, Alla Nedashkivska, Heather Coleman, Natalia Khanenko-Friesen, Lubomyr Luciuk, and myself.

    CONFERENCE OPENING Dear Friends, Today, countries are in a global race that gets faster and faster. I am not a political scientist - as an art collector I like to use art when I speak about global challenges. Let me use the famous photographer Andreas Gursky’s “Boxenstopp” as an analogy. A pit stop in Formula 1. One team is blue and yellow. This is Ukraine; these are Ukraine’s colours. What is the Ukrainian team doing? I believe - reforms. In the global race, reforms are pit stops allowing you to change and speed up. Some countries which were slow before improve their position. Like cars that put on the right new tires and fill up with the right amount of gasoline, they can overtake others. Others put on the wrong equip- ment or lose too much time in the pit stop and fall behind. I hope Ukraine’s team will be successful. And I hope for all of us this conference will be an intellectual pit stop where we refuel and re-equip ourselves, take in new energy and ideas, to help all our respective countries become smarter, better, more productive, more just. For this, we have fantastic speakers with us in Yalta, political leaders, business leaders, social leaders, intellectuals. I look forward to our discussions.

  • EURASIA DAILY MONITOR Volume 5 , Issue 125 (July 01, 2008)
    EURASIA DAILY MONITOR Volume 5 , Issue 125 (July 01, 2008) OLIGARCHS WIELD POWER IN UKRAINIAN POLITICS By Taras Kuzio The leading Ukrainian magazine Korrespondent (June 12) published its annual list of wealthy Ukrainians. The most surprising new information was the estimate of Donetsk oligarch Renat Akhmetov’s wealth. Akhmetov, the head of Systems Capital Management, is worth $31.1 billion, making him the wealthiest person not only in the CIS but also in Europe. This revelation comes on top of the highest real estate purchase ever recorded in Britain to Olena Franchuk, the wife of Ukrainian oligarch Viktor Pinchuk and daughter of former President Leonid Kuchma (London Evening Standard, February 26). The purchase was for 80 million pounds ($160 million). London is fast becoming a refuge not only for Russian but also Ukrainian oligarchs. Russian political exiles, such as Boris Berezovskiy, flee to London while Ukrainian exiles (Ruslan Bodelan) flee to Russia. This is testimony to the different approaches to money laundering and due diligence undertaken by the United States and the EU. In the U.S. former Prime Minister Pavlo Lazarenko was convicted and jailed in 2004 for money laundering $120 million into the United States, $40 million less than Franchuk paid for her new London home. Four years of political instability in Ukraine have not damaged the ability of Ukraine’s oligarchs to increase their capitalization during President Viktor Yushchenko’s administration. Political instability has not affected the economy, which has continued robust growth; purchasing power is high and foreign direct investment is at record levels. According to Korrespondent editor Vitaliy Sych, Akhmetov’s estimated wealth has doubled in the past year because of three factors.

Edición Web: 1988-2041 (www.retos.org) Current State and Prospects of Development of the Sports System of Ukraine: Legal Aspects Estado actual y perspectivas de desarrollo del sistema deportivo de Ucrania: aspectos legales *Maxym Tkalych, **Iryna Davydova, **Yuliia Tolmachevska *Zaporizhzhia National University (Ucrania), **National University «Odesa Law Academy», (Ucrania) Abstract: The article analyzes the current state of the sports organization system in Ukraine. The authors of the article argue that the sports system in Ukraine needs to be reformed in light of current trends in world sports. First and foremost, the need for regulatory and institutional development of the professional sport, which can have a positive impact on the development of the entire sports system of Ukraine. Currently, the dominant position in Ukrainian sport is occupied by the state and non-governmental organizations. This approach was justified under the conditions of a planned economy during the Soviet Union, but it is now outdated and hinders the development of Ukrainian sport.Instead, modern sport in developed countries is primarily driven by private initiative and the creation of appropriate conditions for a variety of private law entities to promote entrepreneurial activity in sport. The purpose of the article is to identify the key institutional and legal factors of the domestic sports system that negatively affect its development. Adequate regulatory support for commercial sports will give additional funds in domestic sports, which inevitably plays a role in improving sports achievements and restoring Ukraine’s position in the world sports arena.

    Pro Bono Practices and Opportunities in Ukraine 1 I. Introduction While the provision of pro bono legal services in Ukraine remains limited compared to certain Western countries, access to pro bono legal services has continued to increase over the last several years. Since the Euromaidan Revolution in 2014 and the conflicts in Crimea and Eastern Ukraine, numerous pro bono initiatives have been implemented in Ukraine aimed at assisting protesters, volunteers and internally displaced persons. In addition, significant reform of the legal system in Ukraine, continued proliferation of NGO activity and the adoption of international standards and traditions in the legal profession have laid a stronger foundation for pro bono culture in recent years. Although access may still be limited, both national and international law firms and solo practitioners in Ukraine have more opportunities than ever to provide pro bono legal services, and as a result Ukrainian citizens and residents have more access to these services than ever before. II. Overview of Pro Bono Practices (a) Professional Regulation 1. Describe the laws/rules that regulate the provision of The legal profession in Ukraine is comprised of legal services? licensed attorneys (“advocates”) and unlicensed lawyers (“jurists”). The provision of legal services by advocates is regulated by the Law of Ukraine “On the Bar and Legal Practice.” 2 This law sets out the general requirements for advocates as well as their rights, duties and professional liability. The provision of legal services by jurists is not regulated by any specific law and is governed by sections of the Ukrainian Civil Code, including those on representation and agreements on the provision of services.
