The intensification of the processes of ethnopolitical integration and disintegration in the modern world, their dialectical interrelation and interdependence are studied. The preconditions, factors and peculiarities of the open phase of ethnopolitical disintegration of Ukraine, which began in 2014, are revealed. Manifestations of disintegration challenges that threaten the territorial integrity of the state, in particular, interference in the internal affairs by Ukraine's neighboring countries (Hungary, Russian Federation) under the pretext of protecting the rights of national minorities are examined. The process of ethnopolitical reintegration is analyzed and the consideration of reintegration policy in the context of the state ethnonational policy of Ukraine is substantiated. The current state, legal framework, political peculiarities of reintegration are studied, as well as recommendations for successful reintegration of the temporarily occupied territories of Crimea and Donbas are given.
