Uncertain World: Yanukovych has boosted Ukraine’s stability – but for how long? | Columnists. They tried to compensate for their managerial flops by foregrounding ideology. But their attempts to effect a rapid change in the ethnic identity of such a complex country as Ukraine, while simultaneously splitting from Russia, only escalated internal tensions. On top of that, alliances collapsed as former allies started fighting each other. While all these turbulent processes were underway, Ukraine remained the focus of international attention. Objective reasons included U.S. and European interests, with the subjective reason being that Yushchenko recognized that confrontation with Russia was a reliable way of holding his Western partners’ attention.

Although Russia’s policy was neither ideal nor fail-safe, Ukraine was far too willing to add fuel to even the smallest fire. Crucially, Yushchenko believed that the further Ukraine moves from Russia, the better its future will be. But he went too far once too often.

Tumultuous changes to the Ukrainian executive, legislative and legal branches of power over the past months have until recently deflected the public’s attention from another important change in the political system of Ukraine.

At the last local elections, Oleh Tyahnybok’s nationalist party Svoboda [freedom, ed] received around 5% support from the Ukrainian population, which means that this political force, which has yet to be studied in detail, increased its representation in the regional and local parliaments of Western and Central Ukraine. It also has more and more chances of forming its own party in the next Verkhovna Rada (the Ukrainian Parliament). This would change the structure and the nature of both political competition and public discourse in Ukraine.

The ideological spectrum of the party landscape at national level may soon lose its current two-pronged division.

Putin Luring Ukraine in First Ruble Debt as Dollar Sale Pulled : Ukraine News by UNIAN. Ukraine may sell ruble debt for the first time as Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin’s government builds ties with former Soviet states and promotes its currency as a regional alternative to the dollar. Officials from Ukraine’s finance ministry met Russian counterparts twice to discuss a ruble bond, Ukraine’s Deputy Economy Minister Valery Muntiyan said in a July 23 interview in Kiev, without specifying how much debt the government may sell.

Ukraine abandoned a $2 billion issue this month as international investors demanded higher yields than the government was willing to pay, according to a July 15 finance ministry statement. Relations improved since Ukraine’s President Viktor Yanukovych took office in February, a year after gas-price disputes with Russia’s state-controlled OAO Gazprom disrupted supplies to Ukraine and the rest of Europe.

Vice Speaker of the Ukrainian parliament Mykola Tomenko has said that the Regions Party is planning to propose that the factions of the Communist Party, the Bloc of Lytvyn and individual MPs vote to reverse the political reform conducted in 2004 in exchange for extending their time as people's deputies until 2015.

"Part of the Regions Party believes that a no-fail scenario for returning to the Constitution of 1996 is to promise the communists, the Bloc of Lytvyn and turncoats that the transitional provisions will envisage that the next parliamentary election will take place simultaneously with the presidential one in 2015, and then they will vote to endorse the decision of the Constitutional Court of Ukraine, and then [Ukrainian President Viktor] Yanukovych and [head of the presidential administration Serhiy] Liovochkin will gain a presidential system of government, and the MPs will get three additional years in parliament," Tomenko said at a briefing in Kyiv on Tuesday.

The Constitutional Court of Ukraine has declared unconstitutional a number of clauses of the amended law on the presidential elections in Ukraine.

In addition, the court rejected a clause prohibiting citizens from working in a territorial election commission for a constituency in which they do not reside, and a clause prohibiting the submission of complaints to the Central Election Commission on the day of the ballot. The court ruled against a clause stipulating that the appeals that haven't been considered by a court within two days after the vote would be dismissed. Comment / Opinion - The west should not lose patience with Ukrai. Controversial Ukrainian Education Minster not toppled | Top Russ.

The Ukrainian opposition did not have enough votes to force the resignation of Education and Science Minister Dmitro Tabachnyk on Tuesday. The opposition which is made up of the Our Ukraine-People's Self-Defense bloc on and the Yulia Tymoshenko bloc, has accused the current education minister of having 'pro-Russian' and 'anti-Ukrainian' sympathies.

However, the call for Tabachnyk's resignation gained only 202 votes in the parliament from the 226 required. Tabachnyk has already criticized his predecessor Ivan Vakarchuk's Ukrainization policies in the de-facto bilingual country, where many people have never learned to speak Ukrainian, and Russian is widely spoken, especially in the east, the Crimea and the capital. Tabachnyk's appointment to the post of the Education Minister has provoked strong public controversy in Ukraine. The pro-Western regions have rallied against him; however the pro-Russian east of the country has supported the selection.
