PROBLEMS AND PROSPECTS OF UKRAINE-RUSSIA COOPERATION fter coming to power in 2005, the new Ukrainian leadership clearly demonstrated its A rintention to follow the foreign political priorities stipulated in Ukrainian legislation: integration in the EU, development of equal, mutually beneficial relations with the Russian Federation, attainment of a new level of cooperation with the USA, and accession to NATO. During his first foreign visit to Moscow (January 24, 2005), Ukraine’s President V. Yushchenko declared the priority of strategic partnership with the Russian Federation, building of open and transparent bilateral relations, their “formalisation” and “refusal from the “Byzantine” politics, when certain things are said, but others are done”*. A new difficult phase began in bilateral relations, characterised by the growth of conflicts in the key fields of cooperation, giving grounds to speak of signs of a systemic crisis in the Ukraine-Russia partnership. This phase should be viewed in the context of modern bilateral relations, involving a number of acute problems. It is evident that many problems, darkening bilateral cooperation, were neglected by the previous Ukrainian and Russian leadership and actually were frozen. The Orange Revolution of 2004 and the arrival of V. Yushchenko’s team promoted the divergence of the state and political elite of the two countries. The actions of the Russian side during the presidential elections in Ukraine, positioning of the key political forces in the Russian Federation during the parliamentary campaign of 2006 witness the critical attitude of a large part of the Russian political community to the new political realities of Ukraine. Observers note the mismatch of the parties’ positions on a number of the key foreign political issues, bilateral problems, the general divergence of the geopolitical course of Ukraine and Russia. More problems arose in the political, economic and humanitarian relations. Beyond doubt, the state of the Ukrainian-Russian relations does not meet the national interests of the two countries, strains the regional situation, and complicates contacts of Moscow and Kyiv with the European Community and the USA. It may be stated that in Ukraine’s relations with Russia, the post-Soviet phase of partnership (political loyalty in exchange for economic preferences) came to an end. A difficult transitional

Bibliography………………………………………………………………………………122 i Introduction In his “Literary Reveries” of 1834 Vissarion Belinsky proclaimed, “we have no literature” (Belinskii PSS I:22). Belinsky was in good company with his assessment. Such sentiments are rife in the critical essays and articles of the first third of the nineteenth century. A decade earlier, Aleksandr Bestuzhev had declared that, “we have a criticism but no literature” (Leighton, Romantic Criticism 67). Several years before that, Pyotr Vyazemsky voiced a similar opinion in his article on Pushkin’s Captive of the Caucasus : “A Russian language exists, but a literature, the worthy expression of a mighty and virile people, does not yet exist!” (Leighton, Romantic Criticism 48). These histrionic claims are evidence of Russian intellectuals’ growing apprehension that there was nothing Russian about the literature produced in Russia. There was a prevailing belief that

  • Separatists and Russian Nationalist-Extremist Allies of The
    Separatists and Russian nationalist-extremist allies of the Party of Regions call for union with Russia Today at 17:38 | Taras Kuzio The signing of an accord to prolong the Black Sea Fleet in the Crimea by 25 years not only infringes the Constitution again, but also threatens Ukraine’s territorial integrity. If a president is willing to ignore the Constitution on two big questions in less than two months in office, what will he have done to the Constitution after 60 months in office? As somebody wrote on my Facebook profile yesterday, the Constitution is now “toilet paper.” The threat to Ukraine’s territorial integrity is deeper. Since President Viktor Yanukovych’s election, Russian nationalist-extremist allies of the Party of Regions have begun to radicalize their activities. Their mix of Russophile and Sovietophile ideological views are given encouragement by cabinet ministers such as Minister of Education Dmytro Tabachnyk and First Deputy Prime Minister Volodymyr Semynozhenko. Calls, which look increasingly orchestrated, are made to change Ukraine’s national anthem, adopt Russian as a state language, transform Ukraine into a federal state and coordinate the writing of educational textbooks with Russia. On Monday, Russian nationalist-extremist allies of the Party of Regions in the Crimea organized a meeting on the anniversary of the Crimea’s annexation by the Russian empire that demanded a full military, political and economic union with Russia. Russian nationalist-extremists in the Crimea were marginalized by ex-President Leonid Kuchma after he abolished the Crimean presidential institution in 1995. Then Deputy Prime Minister Yevhen Marchuk undertook measures to subvert and undermine the Russian nationalist-extremists who came to power in the peninsula in 1994.

  • The Impact of Changes in Electoral Systems: a Comparative Analysis of the Local Election in Ukraine in 2006 and 2010
    STUDIA VOL. 36 POLITOLOGICZNE STUDIA I ANALIZY Olena Yatsunska The impact of changes in electoral systems: a comparative analysis of the local election in Ukraine in 2006 and 2010 KEY WORDS: local government, local elections, proportional electoral system, majoritarian electoral system, mixed majoritarian-proportional electoral system, Ukraine STUDIA I ANALIZY Having gained independence in 1991 Ukraine, like most Central and East- ern European countries, faced the need for radical Constitutional reforms, with reorganization of local government figuring high in the agenda. Like other post-soviet countries, Ukraine had to decide on the starting point and like in the neighboring countries, democratic euphoria of the early 1990s got the upper hand: local authorities were elected on March 18, 1990, while the Law On Local People’s Deputies of Ukrainian SSR and Local Self-government was adopted by Verkhovna Rada of Ukrainian SSR on December 7, 1990. Ukrain- ian Researchers in the field of local government and its reforms concur with the opinion that the present dissatisfactory state of that institution was con- ditioned by the first steps made by Ukrainian Politicians at the beginning of the ‘transition’ period. Without clear perspective of reform, during more than 20 years of Independence, Ukrainian local government has abided dozens of laws, sometimes rather contradictory and has survived more than 10 stages of restructuring. Evolution of election legislation in Ukraine is demonstrated by Table 1. The table shows that since 1994 three electoral systems have been tested in Ukraine: 1, Majoritarian, 2, Proportional except elections to village and settlement councils and 3, ‘Mixed’ system (50% Majoritarian+50% Proportional).

Despite their significant numbers, however, these Ukrainians remain largely unknown to the international community, receiving none of the attention that has been accorded, for example, to Russian minorities in the successor states to the former Soviet Union. According to the last Soviet census of 1989, approximately 4.3 million Ukrainians live in the Russian Federation; unofficial estimates of the size of this group run considerably higher.
