Recovery of Ukraine: starting point and directions for the authorities

Today’s events in Ukraine, no matter how tragic they may seem, also have a positive meaning: it is the end of the country’s post-Soviet history, the end of the era of “fraternal nations,” the end of “Soviet” “freedom,” “democracy,” and “human rights.”

The 30-year history of Ukraine’s attempts to sit on two chairs – the post-Soviet one, which until recently was filled with Russian paradigms and practices, and the pro-European one – has come to an end, which, although it may be very controversial for Ukraine, is the only way to preserve and enhance its national heritage.

At the same time, as Ukraine moves toward full membership in the EU, all European processes are important and significant for determining the country’s development path, which is the focus of this paper.
