THE IDENTITY OF THE PROJECT OF THE FUTURE IN POST-WAR UKRAINE

Abstract

The Ukrainian nation in the conditions of war is united around a common patriotic platform in achieving victory over the infernal racist enemy and forming a project for the future. In his annual message on the internal and external situation, President Volodymyr Zelenskyi clearly articulated that the future will be Ukrainian.
 The subjectivity of Ukraine, which was won through bloody battles, leaves no doubt that the values of civilization are defeating totalitarianism. The Russian- Ukrainian war accelerated Ukraine's acquisition of the identity of the future project associated with the European integration vector of development. The article examines the procedurality of the integration choice, the origins associated with Euromaidan and the transformation of the resistance identity.
 The article analyzes the destabilization of the domestic political situation in the post-Maidan period, provoked by pro-Russian forces, in particular, due to the politicization of regional controversies in the humanitarian sphere: regarding language, culture, Ukrainian and Russian narratives of historical memory. Despite the hybridity of the confrontation with Russia, the state information policy was not focused on the systematic development of the national security strategy. Ukraine's information policy acquired an active-offensive character already in the conditions of a full-scale military invasion by the aggressor state of Russia.
 Ukrainian and Russian war narratives radically differ in the interpretation of manifestations of genocide, war crimes, and crimes against humanity. Falsification and concealment of crimes by the Russians do not stop Ukraine and the civilized world (relevant institutions) from documenting them for future international tribunals. The data of sociological polls regarding the attitude of Ukrainian citizens towards everything Russian, together with the soviet-communist, as towards something unequivocally hostile, are given.
 Urbicide committed by racist criminals in Ukrainian cities is considered as a separate topic of the article. Russia destroyed its future with military plans for the physical and spatial destruction of Ukraine and Ukrainians. The Ukrainian identity of the future project based on democratic values and shared experience is the identity of a nation of heroes, fighters, and global leaders.
