The aim of the study was to determine the specifics of the formation and transformation of the foreign policy positions of the United States of America (USA) and the European Union (EU) based on a comprehensive analysis of the climate communications and public diplomacy in the global context. Using the methods of discourse analysis, content analysis, and comparative analysis, the author studied materials for the period 2015-2023, including international agreements, national strategies, and policy documents. On this basis, the dominant narratives, rhetorical strategies, and value orientations that shaped the unique international positions of the United States as a technological leader and the EU as a normative force were identified. The study results revealed significant differences in strategic approaches: The US focused on technological innovations, competitive advantages, and economic opportunities, while the EU emphasised the values of multilateral cooperation, collective responsibility, and inclusive dialogue. It was found that the transformation of public narratives and communication strategies correlated with changes in political administrations in the US and institutional reforms in the EU, which was reflected in the change in rhetoric, priorities, and mechanisms for implementing climate policy. The study demonstrated a significant evolution of the approaches of both actors to the construction of international subjectivity and the establishment of global leadership through the prism of climate discourse. The key points of convergence and divergence of the foreign policy positions in the context of multilateral diplomacy and global governance were identified. The influence of climate discourse on the formation of the international image and geopolitical status of the studied actors, as well as its role in the realisation of the strategic interests in the international arena, was substantiated. Tendencies towards increased competition between the US and the EU for global leadership in climate policy and its impact on the transformation of the world order were identified.

It is frequently asserted that, over the past decade, the Polish Constitutional Tribunal has lost its authority and that restoring it should be the primary objective of any new arrangements concerning constitutional adjudication. From the claim that the Tribunal’s authority has collapsed, far-reaching legal consequences are sometimes inferred, most notably the wholesale denial of its legal existence or of the binding force of its judgments. This article seeks to determine which dimensions of the Tribunal’s alleged loss of authority are invoked in public debate, whether they provide a sound basis for such assessments, and whether any of them may be legally relevant in the strict sense – that is, capable of justifying a refusal to comply with the Tribunal’s rulings. The lines of argument most commonly advanced in the constitutional debate concern the erosion of public trust, the decline in institutional efficiency, and the Tribunal’s delegitimisation within domestic institutions and in the international arena. As it turns out, however, these considerations do little to clarify the legal dimension and legal consequences of a supposed collapse of authority. The most substantial basis for such conclusions appears to lie in the unequivocally negative assessment of the Tribunal within the international arena, particularly by expert bodies and judicial institutions. Even here, however, a precise reconstruction of the deficiencies attributed to the Tribunal by these actors is indispensable. Nothing is more damaging to the quality of legal argument than blurring the boundaries beyond which political reasoning begins; equally, nothing strengthens the persuasiveness of legal analysis more than reliance on widely accepted constitutional concepts and the rigorous observance of established principles of legal reasoning.

Forty years after the lifting of Martial Law, Taiwan’s diplomacy exemplifies how post-authoritarian societies reshape authority through civic participation. This paper asks: How has Taiwan used public diplomacy to manage identity-based conflict and mitigate regional threat perceptions? It argues that Taiwan’s civic-embedded public diplomacy (CEPD) offers a distinct post-authoritarian model of conflict resolution in East Asia. Drawing on conceptual frameworks of threat perception and relational structure, the study reinterprets conflict resolution as the management of identity-based insecurities rather than the mediation of armed disputes. Within this framework, public diplomacy functions as a relational practice of security through which states negotiate legitimacy, authority, and identity. The framework situates Taiwan’s public diplomacy in contrast to China’s state-centric model, which reinforces hierarchical authority through a peaceful-rise narrative aimed at legitimizing its power status. Taiwan’s CEPD extends democratic participation into the international arena, involving civil society and cultural institutions as diplomatic actors. Taiwan’s CEPD thereby strengthens domestic legitimacy while managing regional tensions through the normalization of its international visibility. By connecting conflict resolution with Taiwan’s post-authoritarian transformation, it demonstrates that authority in Taiwan is evolving from state control to civic participation, offering insights into regional security and identity politics in East Asia.

The article analyzes problematic issues related to ensuring information security and cybersecurity in the context of digitalization being carried out in Ukraine, which, in turn, is being carried out in the context of armed aggression by the Russian Federation against Ukraine. It is noted that the problem of data protection from loss, theft, distortion or damage in modern society, especially in connection with the growing role of information and communication technologies, requires increased attention, and its solution contributes to ensuring the information security of an individual, an organization, and the entire state. In connection with the Russian aggressor conducting a modern hybrid war against Ukraine, attention is focused on the need for the Ukrainian state to respond more sharply, broadly, deeply and dynamically to the ongoing modern hostile information special operations, in the process of which dynamically changing and constantly improving means and mechanisms of information influence on the citizens of Ukraine are used. Therefore, the study of existing and potential threats in the information sphere makes it possible to predict the enemy's narratives, neutralize them and support the consolidation of society. And monitoring, analysis and early warning systems allow you to quickly detect disinformation campaigns and cyberattacks and reduce their effect (faster responding, blocking, correcting information). Similarly, the integration of information and cybersecurity increases the resilience of defense forces, protects critical infrastructure, communications and control systems. The analysis of manipulation mechanics allows developing effective educational programs - citizens are better able to recognize fakes and are less susceptible to influence. And understanding threats helps to form unified narratives of the state, coordinate communication between government agencies, and conduct a proactive information campaign in the international arena. In turn, research into enemy tactics and the evidence found provide grounds for international coordination, sanctions, and joint countermeasures, as well as for strengthening cyber defense of critical infrastructure, state services, and the Armed Forces of Ukraine, as well as improving coordination between government agencies and the civil sector. The importance of digitalization in Ukraine is revealed, as the widespread introduction of digital technologies into everyday life, public services, and human interaction forms a more inclusive society, provides quick access to e-government, online education, medicine, and financial services, improving the quality of life and efficiency of management. At the same time, the key aspects of digitalization of the social sphere are social protection and accessibility of services. At the same time, digitalization also brings with it corresponding challenges, such as in terms of information security, cybersecurity, digital inequality, and health for citizens. The following main information security problems have been identified: – insufficient level of personal data protection, which consists in a low level of technical protection; – cyber hygiene problems among users and organizations; – absence or obsolescence of security policies in organizations; – access management and authentication problems; – threats from internal users (insider threats); – technical problems: software vulnerabilities, hardware threats; – problems of incident response and recovery from attacks. It is noted that in the context of digitalization, which covers all spheres of life, business and public administration, which creates new opportunities, but at the same time significant challenges for cybersecurity, of which it is advisable to highlight the following: – the growth in the number and complexity of cyber threats; – insufficient level of cyber literacy and personnel training; – the complexity of protecting distributed and cloud systems; – problems with data management and confidentiality; – imperfection of protection technologies and their integration; – lack of an effective incident response strategy. It is emphasized that information security and cybersecurity are two closely related, but not identical, concepts that together form a comprehensive approach to protecting information in the modern digital world. Understanding their systemic nature helps to better organize protection measures, assess risks, and build effective security strategies. Cybersecurity is a subfield of information security that focuses on protecting computer systems, networks, software, and data in the digital space from cyberthreats, such as hacker attacks, malware, phishing, DDoS attacks, etc. It is emphasized that information security is a broader concept that covers all aspects of information protection, including physical, administrative and technical measures. In turn, cybersecurity is a part of information security that focuses on the digital environment. Systematic means that information security and cybersecurity are considered as parts of a single information protection system, where each element (technology, people, processes) interacts to achieve the common goal of ensuring information security. Thus, information security and cybersecurity are complementary concepts that together form a holistic information protection system. A systemic approach allows for effective coordination of technical, organizational, and human resources to minimize risks. Understanding the systemic nature of these concepts is key to building a reliable security strategy in any organization.

ABSTRACT Climate-induced Loss and Damage (L&D) is becoming a defining challenge for global climate governance, especially in West Africa, where adaptation limits are increasingly surpassed. Yet, the literature has largely overlooked how national governments in Africa conceptualize, operationalize, and govern L&D. Existing studies tend to focus on international finance debates or localized impacts, leaving a gap in understanding the national policy frameworks shaping L&D responses. This paper addresses this gap through a comparative analysis of five West African countries, Burkina Faso, Ghana, Nigeria, Senegal, and Sierra Leone, structured around four thematic dimensions: conceptual clarity, scope and depth of losses, policy integration, and institutional readiness. Drawing on more than 60 official policy documents, including National Adaptation Plans, disaster frameworks, and climate legislation, the study applies an interpretive scoring framework and proposes a three-stage typology of L&D policy engagement (Nascent, Emerging, Integrated). The results show that Senegal and Ghana fall into the Emerging category, with partial recognition of L&D concepts but limited institutionalization in formal policy architecture. Nigeria, Burkina Faso, and Sierra Leone remain Nascent, where L&D is either subsumed under adaptation and humanitarian action or only referenced anecdotally. No country has yet reached the Integrated stage. Across all five cases, economic losses in agriculture and infrastructure are frequently reported, while non-economic losses such as displacement, cultural erosion, and psychological harm remain weakly specified. Institutional arrangements for L&D are fragmented in national frameworks, suggesting uneven preparedness for engagement with emerging international L&D governance mechanisms, including the Santiago Network and the Fund for responding to Loss and Damage. The findings suggest that the absence of formal L&D strategies in many national policy documents may limit the visibility of irreversible climate impacts and complicate future claims-making in international arenas. By advancing a systematic baseline of how L&D is framed in national policies and introducing a heuristic typology for cross-country comparison, this study contributes conceptually, empirically, and policy-relevantly to debates on climate justice and the evolving governance of L&D in the Global South.

ABSTRACT The global resurgence of authoritarianism has fundamentally altered the international context for democracy promotion. How do domestic elites in the countries exposed simultaneously to democratic and authoritarian diffusion forces respond to these competing external influences? This article develops an analytical framework to study the interplay between competing democratic and authoritarian diffusion forces in the international arena and domestic elite responses to an increasingly diverse menu of external actors’ tools, policies, and narratives. In the European Union (EU) context, authoritarian influences directly challenge the EU’s tools, narratives and approaches, opening pathways to hybridity. The framework conceptualises the impact of competing influences by distinguishing between the creation and persistence of cross-border patronage networks and the transfer of ideological narratives. We examine how patronage and ideas have affected countries in the EU as well as its neighbourhood, pointing to different member states, accession candidates, and neighbouring countries to illustrate the dynamics at play. We conclude that the emergence of competing diffusion forces represents an important challenge to the EU’s democracy promotion efforts that needs to be addressed more systematically in the EU’s efforts to shape democratic outcomes in its neighbourhood.

The modeling and evaluation of the digital economy indicators in Russia, as well as the analysis of its dynamics and positions in the international arena have been carried out. The study covers key aspects of digitalization, including the contribution of the ICT sector to the GDP, the cost of organizations for digital technologies, and integral indicators in 10 categories such as e-sales, human resources, digital skills, and e-government. Based on the authors’ methodology, the digital economy contribution to Russia’s GDP has been calculated, which amounted to 2.1% (1.6 times higher than traditional estimates that consider only the ICT sector). A comparative analysis of 33 indicators of digitalization in Russia with 30 countries has been carried out, revealing Russia’s leadership in the e-commerce sector (integral indicator 0.93), as well as average positions in terms of technology accessibility and human resources. Dynamic analysis over the past five years has shown an increase in indicators after the adoption of the Digital Economy State Program, but foreign policy factors (sanctions and restrictions) have slowed down the development of certain areas, such as science and international cooperation. Cluster analysis confirmed the division of years into periods with high and low digitalization, where the last two years are assigned to the first group. The lack of a unified system for measuring the digital economy has been emphasized, which complicates its assessment. The need for an expanded approach to the digital sector definition has been substantiated. The study results demonstrate the growth potential of the Russian digital economy, but also highlight key challenges that require comprehensive solutions to strengthen its competitive position at the global level.

This paper analyzes strategies for developing Vietnamese cultural "soft power" in the context of the country entering a new era of development as guided by the 14th National Congress of the Communist Party of Vietnam. Based on discussions about soft power and the Vietnamese context, this article systematizes the country's cultural power resources, analyzes the components and limitations in the process of transforming cultural values ​​into political and economic advantages in international relations, and proposes strategic solutions for building a national brand in the digital age. The study affirms that Vietnamese culture and people are the most important "endogenous strength," needing to be awakened and developed in proportion to the country's historical stature and increasingly elevated position in the international arena.

article is devoted to a comprehensive analysis of Singapore’s balance of payments as a key indicator of the state of its economy. The study covers the dynamics of the main accounts of the balance of payments from 1986 to 2024, the period during which Singapore underwent a transformation from a dependent territorial entity to a country that occupies a prominent place in the international arena. The study is based on officially published statistical information and includes an analysis of the country’s current account, financial account and trade balance. The research methods used in the work correspond to the generally accepted research methods typical of scientific works of this kind: analysis, synthesis, statistical research methods. The factors that influenced the movement of the balance of payments indicators have been identified. Special attention is paid to the analysis of the country’s net foreign exchange reserves and net international investment position. Based on statistical data, we identify stable trends and structural features of Singapore’s economy that have developed over the decades. The subject of the work is the balance of payments of Singapore, the object of the study is the dynamics of the balance of payments of the Republic of Singapore. The purpose of the article is to identify key changes in the balance of payments, assess the factors that influenced these changes, and determine the role of the balance of payments in the context of assessing and analyzing the country’s economy and identifying possible risks to the country’s fi nancial stability. The results of the analysis allowed us to draw conclusions about the importance of analyzing the country’s balance of payments, which is an indicator of the state of the economy. On the other hand, balance of payments analysis allows experts, economists, and government officials to identify and predict systemic problems and risks, which is important when developing a country’s fi nancial policy, determining the resilience of the country’s economy to global crises, and identifying potential threats to develop measures to effectively combat them. The conclusions obtained in the course of the work can be used in further work in the course of conducting research on this issue.

This study aims to analyze the internationalization strategy of Indonesian as an ASEAN language. The background of this study is based on the importance of the existence of regional languages that can be a means of communication and a symbol of regional identity. The method used is a qualitative approach with data collection techniques through interviews, documentation studies, and observations. The results of the study indicate that Indonesian has great potential to become an ASEAN language due to the significant number of speakers, the ease of language structure, and cultural proximity to countries in the region. However, there are various challenges such as the dominance of English, competition with other languages, and limitations of regional policies. Therefore, a comprehensive strategy is needed including strengthening the BIPA program, language diplomacy, the use of digital technology, and cooperation between ASEAN countries. This research is expected to contribute to the development of language policies at the regional level and strengthen the position of Indonesian in the international arena.

The article investigates the key determinants that have intensified the economic dimension of Ukraine’s economic diplomacy in the context of the full-scale armed aggression of the Russian Federation. The study aims to identify the main factors that have increased the strategic importance of economic diplomacy as an instrument for safeguarding national economic interests and ensuring the resilience of Ukraine’s economy during wartime. The research identifies the major destructive consequences of the Russian–Ukrainian war for the national economy, including large-scale damage to industrial and agricultural capacities, the destruction of transport and energy infrastructure, disruption of established production and logistics chains, and destabilization of the national energy supply system. These challenges have significantly increased the need for effective diplomatic mechanisms aimed at mobilizing external economic resources and strengthening international economic cooperation. Particular attention is devoted to the analysis of the transformation of Ukraine’s diplomatic activities in recent years, emphasizing their role in attracting international financial assistance, consolidating macro-financial support programs, stabilizing public finances, and facilitating access to foreign markets. The study argues that the Russian–Ukrainian war has fundamentally reshaped the format of Ukraine’s economic diplomacy, leading to a systemic reorientation of its strategic priorities and the modernization of diplomatic instruments used to promote national economic interests in the international arena. The article also examines Ukraine’s diplomatic practices in mobilizing external financial resources for post-war economic recovery, developing alternative logistics routes for exports, strengthening the country’s international economic image, and promoting mechanisms for war-risk insurance for foreign investors. The findings demonstrate that under wartime conditions Ukraine’s economic diplomacy has significantly expanded its functional scope and proven its capacity to adapt to rapid changes in the international political and economic environment.

From the very first years of Stanisław August Poniatowski’s reign, the ruler’s enemies considered his dethronement. This idea was also familiar to the Bar Confederates. Even the monarch’s attempt to reach an agreement did not prevent the effort to realize this plan. As a result of its rejection, a proclamation of interregnum was signed on April 9, 1770, in the camp near Varna. The document was kept secret for several months, but was finally invoked on October 13, 1770, during the Confederates’ deliberations in Prešov. The proclamation of interregnum, adopted at that time, was then announced with a false place and date. It called for the assassination of the king. At the beginning of 1771, the ruler attempted to strengthen his position by gaining the support of the Lithuanian sejmiks, but his efforts did not bring the expected result. The interregnum declared in 1770 was met with varied assessments from eighteenth-century political writers. There was no shortage of critical opinions. It was also negatively received in the international arena (by Russia, Austria, Prussia, and even France) and, what was worse, it made it completely impossible to reach an agreement with the king, thereby condemning him to cooperation with the Russian Empire.

The article examines current trends and prospects for the development of the crop production industry in the Russian Federation as a basis for the international expansion of regional agricultural enterprises. Based on the analysis of official statistics and data from international organizations, the key competitive advantages of Russia in the global agri-food market are identified, in particular, the leading positions in wheat exports, which reached a record share of 24,8% in the 2023–2024 season. Within the framework of a comprehensive approach combining macro-, mesoand micro-level analysis, the industry context and the potential of a particular enterprise are assessed. For Tverskoye LLC, the SWOT-analysis method systematized internal and external factors affecting its potential to enter the international arena. Based on the diagnostics, practical recommendations and a phased strategy have been developed, including a focus on wheat exports as a "locomotive", diversification through promising niche crops (rapeseed, flax) and the establishment of partnerships with international traders to minimize risks. Special attention is paid to overcoming typical barriers for regional producers: logistical constraints, lack of experience in foreign trade operations and dependence on changing state agricultural and foreign economic policy. The findings of the study, presented in the form of a strategic model and a roadmap, can be applied to the formation of an internationalization strategy for agricultural enterprises located in the Central Federal District and having a similar production profile. The practical significance of the work is confirmed by a ready-made algorithm of actions for the management of the company under study.

Climate change is one of the greatest socio-environmental challenges of the 21st century, with significant impacts on ecological, economic and social systems. In this context, education has established itself as a fundamental tool to promote cultural, social and political changes oriented towards sustainability. This article analyzes the role of education as an instrument of transformation in the face of climate change in Mexico, considering its evolution from the international arena to its implementation in the national education system. The research was developed with a qualitative methodology based on documentary analysis, bibliographic review and analysis of public policies related to environmental education and education for sustainable development. International instruments such as the 2030 Agenda, the Paris Agreement and UNESCO recommendations were examined, as well as national regulatory frameworks such as the General Law on Climate Change and the General Law on Education. The results show that Mexico has made progress in incorporating climate education into its institutional and curricular framework; however, challenges remain related to the effective mainstreaming of environmental education, teacher training, and social participation. The results were compared with previous research findings, highlighting the need to strengthen interdisciplinary and community-based approaches to climate education. Finally, it is concluded that education is a strategic instrument to build an informed, resilient climate citizenship committed to adaptation and mitigation to climate change, being essential to strengthen educational policies, scientific research and social participation to face the country's environmental challenges.

This article places the Holy See at the centre of a non-traditional, performative diplomatic practice linked to the maintenance of state continuity, examining its role in the activities of European governments-in-exile after 1945. In the absence of effective territorial control, their representatives treated the Vatican as a key interlocutor in articulating claims to non-territorial sovereignty and legal continuity under international law. The article argues that the Holy See constituted a distinctive site of interaction in which competing notions of legitimacy, representation, and recognition were negotiated through symbolic diplomatic practices, extending beyond the classical model of interstate relations. Drawing on press sources, diplomatic correspondence, and archival materials, the article analyses both formal and informal modes of interaction, including papal audiences as acts of performative diplomacy. It demonstrates that, despite the Holy See’s restraint in issuing formal acts of recognition, its engagement with representatives of governments-in-exile, among them Kazimierz Papée and Stasys Girdvainis, functioned as a form of symbolic recognition, sustaining their claims to state continuity and reinforcing their legitimacy in the international arena.

India performs and negotiates its cultural identity through a wide spectrum of creative industries, including audio visual techniques and media production, fashion, interior and industrial design, fine arts, handicrafts, and music and performing arts. It argues that these diverse cultural forms function as instruments of soft power, enabling India to project narratives of heritage, innovation, and modernity in the international arena. By analyzing state sponsored initiatives, global festivals, exhibitions, and transnational collaborations, the study highlights how India leverages creative expression to foster dialogue, enhance visibility, and strengthen its global standing. Situating these practices within the broader discourse of international relations, the paper demonstrates that cultural diplomacy is not merely symbolic but a strategic dimension of foreign policy. Ultimately, the research underscores the dynamic role of creative industries in shaping India’s identity as a cultural actor on the world stage.

The intensity, frequency and scale of cyber-attacks define the warfare of the 21st century, and this has triggered a series of economic, political and social adjustments from the local to the international arena. Cyber-attacks are an emerging threat to space security. With the growing reliance on automation, there is a high risk of external agencies interfering with the operation of the satellite, cutting off the communication system and trying to obtain confidential data from the satellite. This paper seeks to identify cyber threats to space assets and analyse their implications for India’s security, applying a realist perspective and focusing on China’s rise as a space-cyber power. Keywords: Space Assets, Cyber Security, Space Security, India, China

The main problem in the study of sports management is the low performance of our athletes in international arenas, the article shows the financing issues with the prerequisites for solving these problems. The article shows the special place of digitalization in improving the management of Olympic and non-Olympic sports in our country. The country's management strategy in this area for 2021–2025 allows us to draw conclusions by analyzing, comparing, and processing statistical information. In the course of innovations, such features as the sports history of athletes, the work experience of coaches, the awarding of sports titles and ranks, qualification categories, and the timing of sports events in accordance with a single sports calendar are highlighted. In order to clarify the scientific work, foreign information was used comparatively. In this direction, work is shown to align the legislative acts in the field of physical culture and sports with a number of subordinate acts. In addition, information will be provided on the development of non-state financing of Olympic and non-Olympic sports, and on this basis, the prerequisites for work to be carried out to end state financing of the country's sports industry will be considered. Keywords: Olympic sports, non-Olympic sports, mass sports, «E-sports», non-state financing, sports innovations, Olympics.

This article analyzes religion as an instrument of politics and ideology in the international relations of the five post-Soviet states of Central Asia. The study examines how Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Turkmenistan are instrumentalizing the religious factor to achieve foreign policy goals, strengthen the ideological foundations of power and international positioning in the context of globalization and transnational religious influences. Theoretically, the work is based on the concepts of religious diplomacy, «soft power» and securitization, demonstrating the transformation of religion from a marginalized element of the Soviet era into a multifunctional political and ideological resource. Across the region, religion is mobilized to legitimize power, construct national identity, justify authoritarian governance through security-centered discourses, and enhance symbolic capital in the international arena. A comparative perspective reveals distinct national models of religious instrumentalization. Kazakhstan employs interfaith dialogue as a soft-power mechanism and a means of strengthening international reputation. Uzbekistan leverages Islamic cultural heritage for diplomatic and economic benefit. Tajikistan uses religious regulation as an ideological rationale for authoritarian consolidation. Kyrgyzstan illustrates competition among political actors for influence over religious discourse. Turkmenistan incorporates religion into a personalized ideology that underpins isolationism. The article argues that these patterns are shaped by each state’s historical experience, regime type, ethno-religious composition, and geopolitical position. Key words: religion, politics, ideology, international relations, Central Asia, instrumentalization of religion, religious diplomacy, soft power, post-Soviet transformation.

In the Republic of Kazakhstan, oilseed crops rank second after grain in the human diet and are widely used in livestock production and for industrial purposes. Sunflower, rapeseed, mustard, soybean, safflower, and oil flax are cultivated in various regions. While maintaining their role as an important sector ensuring the country’s food security, oilseed production demonstrates steady growth. However, despite positive trends, the volumes of oilseed cultivation, vegetable oils, and other fat-and-oil products do not yet fully meet the needs of the domestic market and industry in Kazakhstan, indicating significant development potential of the oil-and-fat sector. The objective is to analyze the state of the oilseed sector of the republic and identify problems and prospects for its modernization. Methods include statistical methods for analyzing quantitative data and identifying patterns, graphical methods for visual representation of information, and analytical approaches for identifying cause-and-effect relationships. Results – it is shown that expansion of sown areas, increases in yield, gross harvest, and selling prices are observed only for sunflower; its sown area increased by 55% in 2019–2024 and amounted to 1,287.1 thousand hectares, yield indicators increased by 17.2 centners per hectare, and the selling price of sunflower during this period reached 59.8% (146.6 thousand tenge per ton). Conclusions – it is important to draw producers’ attention to the fact that despite the high profitability of sunflower cultivation, it is necessary to compensate for the significant removal of nutrientmacroelements from the soil after harvesting, observe crop rotations, and timely apply mineral and organic fertilizers to maintain soil fertility. The implementation of targeted measures will increase domestic production of oilseed products, create new jobs, improve the social situation in rural regions, and strengthen the position of domestic products in the international economic arena
