Inside Ukraine: Ukraine’s choices
| Ukraine has little choice but to integrate regionally, and that means, first and foremost, integrating with the regional leader, Russia. For now, the country’s leadership has chosen integration rather than total opposition, but this is not the only choice available to Ukraine. The next deliberate step that must be made is to choose between passive and active integration. Ukraine has all the elements necessary to take up an active, constructive, pragmatic integrational position. Inside_Ukraine_ENG_9.pdf |

Inside Ukraine: Yanukovych Uncovered
| In the special issue of Inside Ukraine, ICPS uncovers Viktor Yanukovych. We do a little reality check on major myths about Mr. Yanukovych. We look at the challenges that the new President will face, appointments he may make, the foreign policy agenda that he will push through, and the domestic policies he will have to back or oppose. We also suggest tests for Mr. Yanukovych that will allow both Ukrainians and the international community to understand where Ukraine is heading. Inside_Ukraine_ENG_5_Febr_2010.pdf |
