Kovtun I. Recruit Conscription in Dniper Ukraine (1795 – 1874).

From the time of the proclamation of independence Ukraine has been building its domestic and foreign policy on the basis of full adherence to the norms and principles of international law, the UN Charter, Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Helsinki Final Act, Paris Charter for New Europe and other documents of the OSCE. But nevertheless the change in Russian foreign policy since 2014 has highlighted our gaps in Russia-Ukraine neighbourhood and future relations. Russia is now huge aggressor. Now everyone in the hole world could see Russia’s brining back to the Russian Empire past. Ukraine, by contrast, seems perpetually unsure whether it truly wants to plump for a western way or to keep at least one foot in the Soviet (Russian Empire) past. What we need now is revaluation of values for better understanding that we don’t need any new Russian Empire in 21th century. We should build new society, we need new army and new way of thinking how this new army should be.
