The world knows an effective mechanism for employing intellectual potential in solving issues of national importance. This mechanism is known as the non-governmental analytical centers, also known as a "think tanks". The editors of Zerkalo Nedeli invited Anatoliy GRYTSENKO, President of the Ukrainian Centre for Economic and Political Studies (UCEPS). In accordance with a decision taken by the founders' meeting, from October 24, 2000 the Centre bears the name of its founder and late head Olexander Vasyliovych RAZUMKOV. A former Deputy Secretary of Ukraine's National Security and Defence Council (NSDC), a great friend and permanent contributor to our newspaper, Mr. Razumkov is commemorated today, on the first anniversary of his death, by his relatives, close friends and colleagues. In November 1999, Mr. Razumkov's team had to leave the corridors of power, and this was not for the first time. None of the civil and military servants who convined in the lobby with dumb telephones held any illusions as to the feasibility of their new aim of creating a powerful centre and continuing the direction of the man they had up until now laconically called "Chief".

  • Ukraine Chornobyl Chronology
    Chornobyl Chronology Last update: December 2008 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. Nuclear Waste: 2008-1995 OVERVIEW Spent fuel is generally stored on site in cooling ponds at the nuclear power plants at which the fuel assemblies were used. Ukraine previously sent its spent fuel to Russia to be reprocessed, but this course became a contentious issue after Russia passed a law in 1992 prohibiting the import of radioactive material into Russia. This action resulted in storage crisis at Ukrainian power plants. In 6/93, however, Russia passed a new law that allows Ukrainian spent fuel to be reprocessed, but not stored, in Russia. The law does not allow the import of nuclear waste into Russia, but allows the import of Russian-origin spent fuel as long as the resulting waste is returned to the territory of the state which delivered it.
