ABN APPEAL NOT TO HELP GORBACHOV but the Democratic Forces of the Subjugated Peoples The war in the Middle East has been raging since the morning of January 17th. For the first time in its history, the Security council of the United Nations gave the green light to the use of force for the restoration of independence and sovereignty of a small nation which was overrun by Hussein’s armies. After exhausting all diplomatic and peaceful means President Bush was forced to give orders to the allied forces from 28 nations to attack and to free the occupied Kuwait. We, the members of ABN take at this Juncture the opportunity to remind the world of the fate of the subJugated nations in and around the Soviet Union. Freedom, independence and human rights can and should not be measured by different standards. It is irrelevant whether Michael Gorbachov is directly or indirectly involved in the last massacre in Vilnius. As Chief of state, party leader and commander in chief of the Soviet forces, the last responsibility lies with him. Being preoccupied with the events in the Middle East, the Free World should not lose sight of the developments in the Soviet Union. These developments concern and affect World peace as much as the situation in the Middle East. The process of démocratisation and reform in the Soviet Union cannot be turned back. The democratic governments and the free nations should prevent a return of police terror in the Soviet Russian empire. They should prevent a reinforcement of the still existing communist nomenclatura as well as a return to press censorship. Under the pressure of democratic forces, in particular inside the Soviet Russian empire, the reign of terror and oppression seem to have yeilded and allowed to some extent free expression, but with world attention concentrated on events in the Middle East, they have started their traditinal methods of oppression. The Free World should not be deluded by Gorbachov’s assertions of his good intentions, but be aware that as long as the subJugated nations are denied self-determination and human rights by Moscow there can never be peace or stability. Therefore our appeal to the Free World — instead of helping Moscow’s dictator, Gorbachov, send your support to the democratic forces of the people struggling for freedom and independence. For the Anti-Bolshevik Bloc of Nations: Slava Stetsko, (Ukraine) Evdokim Evdokimov, (Bulgaria) President Vice President Nino Alschibaja, (Georgia) Secretary General 1 NINTH CONFERENCE OF SUBJUGATED NATIONS HELD IN ESTONIA (UCIS) Maardu, Estonia, January 19-20, 1991 — The Ninth Conference of the subjugated nations in the USSR was held in this Estonian city. The conference was organized and sponsored by the National Party o f Estonian Independence. Twenty-three national-political organizations took part in the conference, representing 12 nations. The delegates to the Conference sent a letter to US President Bush, in which they express their hope that the present campaign being waged against Saddam Hussein and Iraq will be successful and that this campaign can be linked to sanctions against the USSR for its military aggression against the Baltic republics. The delegates also ratified separate communiques and three separate reso­ lutions, the full texts o f which are printed below. Communique The ninth conference of the USSR SubJugated Nations National Freedom Movements Coordination Council took place in Maardu, Estonia, on January 19-20,1991. Delegations from Armenia, AzerbaiJan, Byelorussia, the Crimea, Estonia, Georgia, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, tha Tartar Movement, Ukraine, Uzbekistan, and also Poland, took part in the conference — repre­ senting a total of 23 political organizations. The Bulgarian delegation was unable to attend the conference, since it was denied entry into the USSR. In conJunction with the conference, a meeting of the coordination centre “Warsaw-90” was held — this group represents parties and organizations from countries within the Soviet empire. The participants in the conference stated that the political situation in the Soviet empire was deteriorating. A counter-attack has been initiated by those reactionary forces which wish to preserve the empire. This is reflected in attempts to suppress national freedom movements by force, and to provoke inter-ethnic and local conflicts. The conference participants consider that democratic progress is not possible until the occupation forces are withdrawn, and decisive de-sovieti- zation of government bodies and social structures is implemented. Otherwise such national-bolshevik activities can lead to continuing conflicts with many casualties. In consideration of this, the participants of the conference support the proposal to conduct a public trial of the Communist system and its organs of terror — analogous to the Nuremberg process and the Judgement on Nazism. The participants reject the so-called Union Treaty in any form whatsoever — any such treaty being an attempt to preserve the Soviet empire in a modified form. The participants support the right of all nationalities to refuse to serve in the armed forces of the USSR — in order that the representatives of one nationality cannot be used to suppress the struggle for freedom of other nationalities. The road to democracy — to the true freedom and independence of peoples — can be achieved through the formation of alternative movements 2 and representative bodies which are independent of the control of Soviet institutions. During the conference, resolutions were passed on the occupational army, crimes committed by the USSR in Lithuania, the struggles against the pre­ servation of the Soviet empire, political prisoners, the Chornobyl tragedy, support for the Tartar people’s independence struggle, the status of the Crimea and the tragic events in Central Asia. In addition, the delegations signed an appeal by “Warsaw-90” directed to the US President George Bush. The next conference will be held in Tbilissi, Georgia, on February 23-25, 1991.

  • Private Sector Development Policy Handbook
    PRIVATE SECTOR DEVELOPMENT POLICY HANDBOOK Attracting Investment in Renewable Energy in Ukraine - SECTOR COMPETITIVENESS STRATEGY FOR UKRAINE PHASE II - NOVEMBER 2012 The OECD Eastern Europe and South Caucasus Initiative Launched in April 2009, the OECD Eastern Europe and South Caucasus Initiative is part of the OECD Eurasia Competitiveness Programme, which aims to contribute to economic growth in Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Moldova, and Ukraine. Its objective is to share with the governments of the region the knowledge, experience and good practices of OECD countries to create a sound business climate for investment, enhance productivity and support entrepreneurship, develop the private sector, and build knowledge-based economies to render its sectors more competitive and attractive to foreign investment. Its approach comprises both a regional policy dimension, which entails peer dialogue and capacity building, and a country-specific aspect supporting the implementation of a number of prioritised reforms. A sector analysis is also included, covering the formulation of targeted policies and strategies requested at the industry level. Within the framework of the programme, public authorities, the private sector and civil society in these countries have been engaged in a dialogue and collaboration process to support policy actions and identify the key barriers to sectoral competitiveness. The participation of all the stakeholders in the reform process, including foreign investors, is considered to be crucial for guaranteeing the effectiveness and transparency of the recommended policies. 2 Foreword Since 2009, the OECD Eurasia Competitiveness Programme has supported the Government of Ukraine in advancing national economic reform through its “Sector Competitiveness Strategy for Ukraine” project. This handbook contains the conclusions of the second phase of the project.

When Sweden invaded Poland, in June 1655, it went to war with an army which reflected not only the state’s military and cultural strengths but also its fiscal weaknesses. During 1655 the Swedes won great successes in Poland and captured most of the country. But a series of military decisions transformed the Swedish army from a concentrated, combined-arms force into a mobile but widely dispersed force.

  • The Progress Report on G7 Energy Sector Support for Ukraine
    The Progress Report on G7 Energy Sector Support for Ukraine Foreword The Energy Ministers of Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom, the United States, and the EU Commissioner for Energy met in Rome in May 2014. They discussed ways to strengthen collective energy security and issued the Rome Energy Security Initiative, which provided for a number of immediate actions to be taken. On the basis of this initiative, Italy compiled “Rome G7 Energy Initiative for Energy Security Implementation Report” and submitted to the Hamburg G7 Energy Ministerial Meeting in May 2015. At the Hamburg meeting in May 2015, G7 Energy Ministers discussed progress since the meeting in Rome in strengthening collective energy security and decided on a further initiative to effectively improve sustainable energy security of G7 countries and beyond, taking into account recent market developments. In the G7 Hamburg Initiative for Sustainable Energy Security, G7 Energy Ministers declared concrete joint actions with non-G7 countries to further strengthen sustainable energy security. In the G7 Elmau Summit Communiqué published in June 2015, the G7 leaders welcomed the Hamburg Initiative and announced their commitment to continue to support vulnerable countries, including Ukraine, in its efforts to reform and liberalize energy systems and aimed to further diversify its energy mix, fuels, energy sources and routes. This paper aims to report to the G7 Energy Ministers about the outcomes of support for Ukraine by G7 member countries, EU and the IEA after the “Rome G7 Energy Initiative for Energy Security Implementation Report”. Given that our support for reforming and liberalizing energy systems in most vulnerable countries including Ukraine, is one of the concrete actions described in the Hamburg G7 Initiative, this paper organizes the current state and progress of reforming Ukraine’s energy system and identifies unsolved issues.

Nonetheless, there was a lack of information about making paper by hand in Central and Eastern Europe, as it was highlighted during discussions.1 This paper is aimed at connecting east central and east southern parts of Europe (i.e. without Russia and Nordic countries) to the international stream of development in European hand papermaking before introducing paper-making machines into countries of the discussed region of Europe.

  • Lecture 27 Epilogue How Far Does the Past Dominate Polish Politics Today? 'Choose the Future' Election Slogan of Alexander K
    - 1 - Lecture 27 Epilogue How far does the past dominate Polish politics today? ‘Choose the future’ Election slogan of Alexander Kwaśniewski in 1996. ‘We are today in the position of Andrzej Gołota: after seven rounds, we are winning on points against our historical fatalism. As rarely in our past - today almost everything depends on us ourselves... In the next few years, Poland’s fate for the succeeding half- century will be decided. And yet Poland has the chance - like Andrzej Gołota, to waste its opportunity. We will not enter NATO of the European Union if we are a country beset by a domestic cold war, a nation so at odds with itself that one half wants to destroy the other. Adam Michnik, ‘Syndrom Gołoty’, Gazeta Świąteczna, 22 December 1996 ‘I do not fear the return of communism, but there is a danger of new conflicts between chauvinism and nationalist extremism on the one hand and tolerance, liberalism and Christian values on the other’ Władysław Bartoszewski on the award to him of the Heinrich Heine prize, December 1996 1. Introduction: History as the Means for Articulating Political Orientations In Poland, as in most countries which have been compelled to struggle to regain their lost independence, an obsessive involvement with the past and a desire to derive from it lessons of contemporary relevance have long been principal characteristics of the political culture. Polish romantic nationalism owed much to Lelewel’s concept of the natural Polish predilection for democratic values. The Polish nation was bound, he felt, to struggle as ‘ambassador to humanity’ and, through its suffering, usher in an era on universal liberty.
