Ukrainian political cynicism is conquering the United States. To its own surprise, Ukrainian politics managed to influence the most important American political event — the presidential elections. The campaign in the United States is nearing its end on November 8. On August 14 Ukraine became a hot topic next to Russia, immigration and Islam

There is good motivation for being on time: the next $3 billion tranche of financing from the IMF, ˆ1.2 billion of macrofinancial assistance from the European Union, World Bank money and a number of other financial assistance projects. However, now we can be sure — the launch failed and the system won’t be launched on time. So now we are at a crossroads. Kyiv has two options: a bad one and a worst one

Party Time: The Gap Between Stated Incomes and Real Cash Flows in Ukrainian Politics
Ukrainian politics is a dirty and expensive game. Political parties spend colossal budgets to meet the main goals of their sponsors: being elected, getting positions in the cabinet, taking control over ‘income streams’. Recently Ukrainians got their first chance from the times of the country’s independence to look inside the ‘bank vault’ and see the financial reports of the major Ukrainian parties

"We are preparing ourselves as well as we can, but we cannot cope without public support," — Head of NABU Sytnyk reassured. Taking into account what kind of enemies NABU is now facing, the scale of the possible media assault can be truly impressive. But we should also take into account that NABU has a resource no other law enforcement agency had before — they have public trust

There is a certain kind of person — when they enter the room, everything becomes more illuminated, funnier and noisier. Pavel was this type of a human being for Ukrayinska Pravda. He contributed an amazing spirit and essence to our office. We called him Paul ‘the Hero’ [Ukr.: Pal Heroyich]. He was a star and a luminary to us

Timothy Snyder is an American historian who has been researching the tragic history of the Eastern Europe for many years.

Today, 10 December, is International Human Rights Day, marking the anniversary of the adoption by the United Nations of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in 1948.
The European Union has assisted Ukraine with reforms and will continue to do so. However, for these changes to be successful, political will is required, not just the resources of international donors. Statements about a pro-European direction that are not backed up by action will not be enough.
Much more time should have been invested into the discussing and voting of the draft law on the judicial reform in the first and the second readings. That means investing more time in detailed discussion and incorporation of the changes and suggestions aimed at implementing the judicial reform, not destroying it
At first sight, Poroshenko’s state visit to Malaysia and Indonesia looks odd. It is only the active Russian propaganda that rushed to devalue this particular visit that indicates some serious ‘subsurface part of the iceberg.’ However, those who know how to read between the lines can understand more from this short report
We collected the top-5 schemes used by Ukrainian sports officials to embezzle money from the state budget. All the schemes were already uncovered by the Ukrainian law enforcement, they all can be found in the Unified State Register of the Court Decisions
As I already wrote a number of times: it’s easy to discuss unity. One might say such discussions became very popular now, even among politicians. Yet we, the humble followers of the Church, realize that its unity is God’s providence and that is why it should be approached by thinking in religious terms. Unity of the Church is not something we can encompass with our human efforts
Mothers are a group of young professionals, and children are the future of our country that we are turning a blind eye to. Nobody really believed that smoking would ever be banned in Ukrainian cafes. But it worked.
