FOREIGN AFFAIRS OF UKRAINE

A Ukraine has wide relations with many countries of the world. The
Ukrainian leaders pay offi cial visits to different countries. During these visits a number of important political agreements are reached. First and foremost Ukraine gives priority to developing its relations with neighbouring states.
B On an ever growing scale the Ministry of Foreign Affairs assists the Ukrainian business in entering the foreign market, provides them with diplomatic and political support and helps in searching for business partners abroad. Recently a great number of various joint ventures and economic, cultural and political projects have appeared in Ukraine. Our specialists in different fields improve their qualifi cation
abroad.
C We also have programmes of students’ and schoolchildren’s exchange.
English, Canadian and American children visit Ukrainian families, go to Ukrainian schools, while Ukrainian children stay at their host families abroad. These exchange programmes help us to understand each other better, to study culture and traditions of other countries.
D A lot of Ukrainians have immigrated to Great Britain. That’s why in 1947 the Association of Ukrainians in Great Britain was founded. This association has some Help Funds that sponsor different important actions. The association gives help to the Ukrainian students who study in British Universities. The same associations and societies exist in many other countries.
E From year to year the number of spheres of our relations with the countries abroad grow. Ukraine is a member of many international organisations like the Council of Europe or the United Nations. This means that in many spheres of life Ukraine supports the policy of peace and cooperation, mutual understanding
and recognition of the priority of universal human values.

F Ukraine has changed over the last years. From ‘Terra Incognita’ in Eastern Europe it has turned into a fashionable tourist country. The number of guests visiting it is growing annually. In 2005 Ukraine was admitted into the world tourist’s organisation. Citizens of the European Union, USA, Canada and some other countries come to Ukraine more eagerly.
