There is no end to the sky. There is no East, and there is no West, Father has two sons. There is no East, and there is no West, There are sunrise and sunset, There is a big word — EARTH! Olzhaz Suleymenov1 From “The Sunny Nights” collection (1962)2 INTRODUCTION In one of his latest appearances in media in the early 2017 one of America's main foreign policy strategists, Zbigniew Brzezinski, pointed out with much anxiety that "strategic insecurity is now a fact of life on a scale heretofore not experienced by the now increasingly vulnerable humanity"3. Structural shocks in the geopolitical, institutional, socio-cultural and security architectonics of the Eastern European and post-Soviet space which have occurred with epicenter in Ukraine, have sharply delimited and polarized the regional transformation and integration processes. The extreme aggravation of the Ukraine- Russia relations as a result of Euromaidan’s victory in Kyiv, followed by Russia’s annexation of Crimea and the hybrid armed conflict in Donbas4, has exposed deep 1 Olzhaz Suleymenov is National Writer of Kazakhstan, Permanent Representative of Kazakhstan to UNESCO in 2002-2018. 2 English translation made by Igor Piliaiev from the Russian original. 3 Brzezinski, Z.

  • The European Project and Geopolitics of Energy
    THE EUROPEAN PROJECT AND GEOPOLITICS OF ENERGY Even though the European project is not “complete” yet, from a geopolitical point of view the EU has by and large been a success, particularly in the economic field. However, the Eurozone has been recently experiencing negative growth, also fuelled by an increase in energy prices. This outcome has been partially caused by Russia’s growing weight, as the EU’s main energy supplier, on the EU's geopolitical and economic stability. In order to offset Russian power and influence on the EU, Turkey and Ukraine should be considered as important partners in the EU’s energy policy. This could also be an important step towards the finalization of the “European project”in general. Sergiy Korsunsky* * Dr. Sergiy Korsunsky is the Ambassador of Ukraine to Turkey. The views expressed in this article are of his expert opinion and should not be attributed to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine. 91 VOLUME 11 NUMBER 1 SERGIY KORSUNSKY he concept of European Community which came about almost 55 years ago included just a few chosen states. The current European Union (EU) went significantly beyond its initial concept, enabling us T to consider a wider Europe not only in terms of “communization”, but as a European Project aimed to create a real Union of all European nations. So, if we look at the map of Europe and Eurasia now it is clear that the European Project has not been completed yet. In terms of GDP and overall economic growth though, it is an unquestionable success, despite the problems in some of the EU member states.
