Ukrainian statehood: historical retrospections, modern threats and challenges

Transcript of scientific report at the meeting of the Presidium of NAS of Ukraine, August 31, 2022

Abstract

The report states that the Russian Federation’s full-scale war against Ukraine not only radically changed the perception of the level of threats to the existence of Ukrainian statehood and Ukrainians as a nation, but also outlined a complex of problems that are to become the object of scientific understanding and thorough fundamental and applied research. Further studies of Ukrainian humanities scientists should be focused on the study of historical, legal, social, moral, and civilizational dimensions of this war.
