ECONOMIC PARTNERSHIP UKRAINE–EU: RETROSPECT AND CHALLENGES OF FURTHER ENHANCED COOPERATION

Ukraine has been a priority partner of the EU since the signing of the Association Agreement in 2014. It was the significant financial and economic support of the EU as a whole and, in particular, of individual EU member states that became a key tool for avoiding catastrophic consequences in the financial and economic system of our country at the beginning of a full-scale war and for the current financing of the state budget deficit. Today, the European Union's support for Ukraine is extremely significant, although it is accompanied by a number of problematic issues that require an in-depth study of certain aspects of economic partnership in terms of finding ways and directions to improve the use of the potential of bilateral economic relations with the European Union as a whole and with individual EU member states.The methodological basis of the study is based on general scientific and special methods of economic theory, in particular, methods of theoretical generalization and comparative analysis for a comprehensive consideration of the research issue, and statistical methods of analysis. In the course of the study, the statistical materials of the European Union and the Ministry of Finance of Ukraine on foreign trade in goods were used.Modern scientific views on the content and prospects of Ukraine's economic partnership with the EU are studied. The key stages of the development of Ukraine's economic partnership with the European Union are summarized and schematized, with details of the areas of sectoral cooperation. The main indicators of trade relations and their role in the economies of the studied countries are analyzed. The key obstacles to further deepening of the economic partnership are substantiated, the elimination of which should be the primary goal of our country on the way to European integration.The obtained results can serve for further study of trade relations and their role in the economies of the studied countries.

TODAY'S REALITIES AND PROSPECTS OF THE FUTURE DEVELOPMENT OF HYDRO ENERGY IN THE WORLD AND IN UKRAINE

Traditional fossil fuels have a detrimental effect on the global environmental situation, which leads to stricter standards for environmental protection. Therefore, in recent years there has been a need to develop and master new technologies that make it possible to generate, store and transmit energy without or while minimizing emissions of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, primarily CO2, which is referred to as the so-called “carbon footprint”. An emerging branch of global energy - hydrogen energy - is based on the use of a compound such as hydrogen as a means for accumulating, transporting, producing and consuming energy. Hydrogen is expected to transform the economy in four main application areas: transportation, industry, energy and utilities. The purpose of this review is to analyze the main trends and criteria for the successful development of global hydrogen energy, as well as to consider the state and prospects for the development of the emerging global and Ukrainian hydrogen energy markets. The article analyzes the development of the hydrogen energy market, discusses national programs to support this new branch of world energy and pilot hydrogen projects. Issues of production, consumption, accumulation, storage and transportation of hydrogen are considered. Ukraine is one of the EU's priority partners in the future hydrogen economy, as it has the necessary capacity for hydrogen production - both for domestic consumption and for export. In 2021, the Ministry of Energy of Ukraine joined the European Pure Hydrogen Alliance. Ukraine's potential for hydrogen production is currently being investigated. The possibility of using the national GTS for hydrogen transportation to Europe is also being studied. The results of the targeted comprehensive program of scientific research of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine regarding the creation of new materials, technological processes, structures and systems that could become the basis for the widespread introduction of hydrogen technologies in Ukraine are presented. An assessment of the state of the global and Ukrainian hydrogen markets and the prospects for their development in the coming years is provided.

Cooperation Between the USSR and India in the 1950-1960s: The First Youth and Student Visits

In the 21st century, the Russian Federation and the Republic of India have great scientific and educational potential. The particularly privileged strategic partnership between the two states is aimed, among other things, at the development and innovations of scientific and educational cooperation, which has stable traditions laid down in the second half of the last century. It was during this period that the first connections were established between students and youth of the two countries. The VI World Festival of Youth and Students, held in Moscow in 1957, was the starting point for building youth cooperation, the activities of the International Youth Tourism Bureau “Sputnik,” and the first tourist trips of Soviet students to India. The relevance of the article is determined by the appeal of the interuniversity team of authors of the RUDN University, MGIMO University and Lipetsk State Pedagogical P. P. Semenov-Tyan-Shansky University to the topic that had not previously been the subject of comprehensive research either in Russia or in India. The purpose of this study is to analyze the goals, forms of organization and significance of the Soviet-Indian youth and student partnership in the late 1950s - early 1960s on the basis of materials from the Russian State Archive of Socio-Political History that were not involved in scientific circulation. The authors use a constructivist approach demonstrating the connection between society and politics and revealing the impact of international cooperation on the institutionalization, development of scientific and educational partnership between the USSR and India at the interstate and interinstitutional levels. The Khrushchev “thaw” period laid the foundations for Soviet-Indian cooperation between the two states in the field of higher education, youth and student academic exchange and tourism. In the 21st century, the experience of the world festivals of youth and students, the work of the “Sputnik” bureau is relevant, since the Republic of India is one of the important and priority partners for the Russian Federation. Students of Modern Russia also face the task of establishing and developing academic and cultural ties with India, increasing the prestige of the country in the eyes of Indians and the whole world.

АНАЛІЗ ЗОВНІШНЬОЇ ТОРГІВЛІ ТОВАРАМИ УКРАЇНИ З КРАЇНАМИ ЄВРОПЕЙСЬКОГО СОЮЗУ

The article is devoted to the study of foreign trade in goods of Ukraine with the countries of the European Union (hereinafter – the EU) with the identification of priority partners for the purpose of diversification and activation of foreign trade cooperation. It was emphasized that the foreign trade of Ukraine is dominated by trade in goods, where a negative trade balance is formed, in particular, in trade with EU countries. In order to determine the key consumers of domestic goods among the EU-27 countries, an ABC analysis was conducted based on the volume of goods exported to them by Ukraine in 2016–2021. The distribution of EU countries into groups was carried out as follows: group A – countries that account for a significant volume of exports of goods by Ukraine (about 80% of the total volume); group B – countries with an average level of export supplies of goods from Ukraine (about 15%); group C – countries with a small volume of exports of goods from Ukraine (about 5%). ABC-analysis is complemented by XYZ-analysis, which allows to analyze and forecast the stability of export of goods to EU countries. Based on the results of the ABC-XYZ analysis, a conclusion was made regarding the expediency of supporting the volume and dynamics of trade cooperation with key EU partner countries in the export of goods – Poland, Italy, Germany, the Netherlands, Spain, Romania, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovakia, Austria, and the need to intensify efforts to increasing the export of goods to countries that in the medium term have the potential to become attractive markets for the consumption of domestic products – France, Bulgaria, Belgium, Lithuania, and to a lesser extent – Denmark, Greece and Latvia. At the same time, it is noted that the vast majority of these countries are highly developed economies of the European Union, and trade in goods with them for Ukraine is disparate. Therefore, it is important to continue cooperation with the EU regarding the signing of the Agreement on Conformity Assessment and Acceptance of Industrial Products, recognition of the equivalence of sanitary and phytosanitary measures for opening markets, and simplifying the export of food and agricultural products. It is also necessary to increase efforts to gradually open public procurement markets. The further liberalization of transport with the EU, the conclusion of agreements in the field of road, inland water and railway transport are also important.

Korea’s Country Partnership Strategy and Bilateral Trade: Establishing a Nexus in Sub-Saharan Africa

Abstract Is the establishment of Korea’s Country Partnership Strategy (CPS) since 2011 associated with increases in Korea’s exports to and imports from its Sub-Saharan African (SSA) partners? Two cases of Korea’s CPS for SSA countries — Ethiopia and Mozambique — indicate that an association can be established between the CPS inception and increases in Korea’s exports of manufactured products to and imports of primary commodities from its priority partners. At the same time, the study revealed that improvement in the trade balance in favor of the priority partners depended on the type of primary commodities in which those countries specialize. Specifically, priority partners specializing in minerals exports experienced a dramatic improvement in their trade balance with Korea relative to their counterparts specializing in agricultural exports.

우간다 국제농업개발협력사업 지속가능성 영향 요인의 우선순위 분석

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to identify the need for sustainability of international agricultural development cooperation projects and to provide implications on which factors affect the enhancement of project sustainability. Originality: This study is meaningful in that it compared and analyzed the factors that affect the sustainability of the project targeting experts in the donor country and the recipient country. As agriculture is important in Uganda, a priority partner country, it intends to provide direction in terms of securing the sustainability of international agricultural development cooperation projects.
 Methodology: After deriving the factors that affect the sustainability of international agricultural development cooperation project through previous studies, 15 experts in Korea and Uganda were surveyed and analyzed using AHP analysis.
 Result: In the top-factors, both donor and beneficiary countries showed the same priority.
 However, in the sub-factors, there showed a difference between the two countries, as donor countries say “Market development is more important than production technology and quality management,” and beneficiary countries say “Production technology and quality management are more important than market development”. In addition, donor country were found to have a lower priority in ‘ownership’ than recipient country.
 Conclusion and Implication: As the importance of ‘capacity building’ was found to be the highest in both country’s experts. Therefore, it is a need to promote development cooperation and field experts, which are the main agents of the project, and also the training of local manpower, which are the main agents of the after the end of the project. It is desirable to enhance the local manpower in both facility management and international cooperation as well as agricultural to contribute to the creation of a friendly international cooperation ecosystem as well as to enhance the sustainability of the project.

What Determines Korea’s Health Aid Allocation: Altruistic, Economic, or COVID-19 Motivations?

Abstract With the disproportionate impact of the global pandemic on developing countries, health aid has become crucial in improving people’s health and well-being more than ever. Reflecting developing countries’ needs, Korea, like other donors, made significant contributions to support the global COVID-19 response. Considering the increased amount and importance of the health sector in Korea’s foreign aid, this article aims to investigate the motivations of Korea’s total bilateral aid and bilateral health aid using panel data of 128 developing countries from 2006 to 2021 with the random-effects panel Tobit model. The time frame was divided into three periods, 2006–2009, 2010–2019 and 2020–2021, to test Korea’s aid determinants pre- and post-pandemic outbreak. No notable changes in Korea’s aid allocation pattern were found before and after the pandemic. Instead, Korea seemed to have mixed motives of donor interest and recipients’ needs in specific periods. However, a priority partner country was consistently identified as an influential factor in Korea’s aid.

Comparative analysis of the main trends in the Interaction of scientifc and educational Organizations with Industrial enterprises

Sustainable long-term economic development in modern industrial and economic conditions becomes impossible without innovations, which require an active interaction of three subjects: science, industry and state. This study analyzed the development trends of the above subjects in the Russian Federation in conformity with the world leaders, and also it studied the current specific alterations in the modern economic community. The analysis showed that the structure of the industrial production still has a predominant part of the raw material component in Russia. The using of financial resources in innovative activities were not efficiently enough. The prevailing budget sources of financing in the structure of research and development costs show a weak interest of Russian companies in the real economic sector in the research and development results. Those scientific subjects which note a tendency of funds lackage also have an extremely low interest in the research focused on the market needs and bringing them to a commercialization form, as well as they seem not interested in the practical implementation of the possibilities of their significant human and material and technical potential. The specifics of modern conditions and the peculiarities of the development of the three main subjects of innovation determine the need for close, long-term scientific and technical cooperation with the support of the state as a regulator, stabilizer and catalyst for the development of these processes. The factors constraining the development of innovations, together with the nature of innovations, determine the need to meet this need for cooperative activity even more urgently. Integration of efforts, abilities and resource mobilization, especially in the post-crisis period, as well as the possibility of risk sharing and sharing existing equipment, as well as obtaining additional funds through in-kind exchange are necessary conditions. It is also necessary to note the role of the state as a regulator, stabilizer and catalyst for the development of innovative processes. The study schematically presents the conclusions of a regression analysis of several factors and their impact on innovative development. They confirmed the need for cooperation with educational organizations of higher education as a priority partner. Based on the analysis, there were identified organizational and economic prerequisites for the development of scientific and industrial cooperation.

Legal Regulation of Hydrogen in Germany and Ukraine as a Precondition for Energy Partnership and Energy Transition

In August 2020, Germany and Ukraine launched an energy partnership that includes the development of a hydrogen economy. Ukraine has vast renewable energy resources for “green” hydrogen production and a gas transmission system for transportation instead of Russian natural gas. Based on estimates by Hydrogen Europe, Ukraine can install 8000 MW of total electrolyser capacity by 2030. For these reasons, Ukraine is among the EU’s priority partners concerning clean hydrogen, according to the EU Hydrogen strategy. Germany plans to reach climate neutrality by 2045, and “green” hydrogen plays an important role in achieving this target. However, according to the National Hydrogen Strategy of Germany, local production of “green” hydrogen will not cover all internal demand in Germany. For this reason, Germany considers importing hydrogen from Ukraine. To govern the production and import of “green” hydrogen, Germany and Ukraine shall introduce legal regulations, the initial analysis of which is covered in this study. Based on observation and comparison, this paper presents and compares approaches while exploring the current stage and further perspectives for legal regulation of hydrogen in Germany and Ukraine. This research identifies opportunities in hydrogen production to improve the flexibility of the Ukrainian power system. This is an important issue for Ukrainian energy security. In the meantime, hydrogen can be a driver for decarbonisation according to the initial plans of Germany, and it may also have positive impact on the operation of Germany’s energy system with a high share of renewables.

Strategy to Improve the Competitiveness of Indonesian Construction Services Sector

The service sector is often associated with a countries economic's progress, where the more advanced a country, the greater its role in the service sector. Construction service is one of Indonesia's service sectors which has more than one forward and backward linkage value and shows that construction services are a key sector. However, the average growth of Indonesia's construction services exports during 2015-2020 was only 5.47 percent and still has the potential to be increased. Therefore, it is necessary to know the performance, comparative advantage, and competitive advantage of the construction services sector, which in turn needs to be formulated to increase the competitiveness of the sector. By using primary and secondary data, this study was analyzed using descriptive analysis, Export Product Dynamic (EPD), and Structural Equation Model (SEM). The results of the analysis show that the Indonesian construction services sector still has the opportunity to be developed as seen from the occurrence of excess demand, which indicates that the Indonesian construction market has not been fully exploited. The potential for developing exports of construction services with partner countries can be carried out by Indonesia with Australia, New Zealand, Japan, China, Korea, and several countries in Southeast Asia. The competitiveness of Indonesia's construction services sector is strongly affected by aspects of opportunity, regulation, and demand from partner countries. Therefore, several strategies that need to be carried out by Indonesia to increase the competitiveness of the construction services sector are determining priority partner countries, creating conducive conditions for political, security, economic, and business climate, strengthening and collaboration with Indonesian certification agency with the world of education, as well as strengthening business actors engaged in the service sector to be able to compete with competitors.

Modern Vectors of Russian Diplomacy in the Post-Soviet Space

The countries of the post-Soviet space are of particular importance for Russia’s geopolitical interests. This primarily concerns the political and economic processes taking place in them. Moreover, of great importance are the approaches of the post-Soviet countries to cooperation with Russia and integration processes in the post-Soviet space. In view of significant negative trends in the international arena, the consolidation of the post-Soviet space is acquiring paramount significance. Numerous challenges and complexity of the tasks that Russia is facing in the present region underscore the need for a balanced, pragmatic and forward-looking approach in bilateral and multilateral relations with the states. The focus of Russian diplomacy is still on Ukraine, the countries of the South Caucasus and Central Asia, Moldova and Belarus. These countries are the priority partners of Russia, the priority of its foreign policy.

Russia - Republic of Korea: results and prospects (30 years of diplomatic relations)

The Republic of Korea is one of Russia's priority partners in the Asia-Pacific region. In 2020, the countries celebrate the 30th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations. In recent years, the countries have made significant steps towards strengthening trade and economic cooperation. In February 2019, the countries signed an action plan for implementing 9 priority areas of cooperation - natural gas, energy, Railways, seaports, the Northern sea route (NSR), shipbuilding, industrial complexes, agriculture and fishing. The Russian-Korean innovation center was opened, and in September 2020 an agreement of intent was signed to create a South Korean industrial Park in Primorsky kray. At the end of 2019, Moscow and Seoul decided to declare 2020 “The year of mutual exchanges”.

Volume and Territorial Distribution of the Czech Republic’s Official Development Assistance Flows to Least Developed Countries

Abstract Official Development Assistance (ODA) is considered one of the most important external resources of finance that can contribute to sustainable development in the Least Developed Countries (LDCs). The Czech Republic, as an official donor country, should spend on ODA, with respect to the EU and national targets, at least 0.33% of its GNI by the year 2030. Eradication of poverty in the context of sustainable development belongs to the long-term priorities of the Czech foreign development cooperation, and thus the Czech Republic considers some LDCs, which population is more likely to live in extreme poverty, the priority partner countries. Paper evaluated fundamental trends of the Czech Republic’s ODA flows to LDCs; compared them with the trends identified for the collective flows of all DAC members and for the flows of its four selected members (Hungary, Poland, Slovakia, Slovenia). Identified trends of Czech ODA flows showed clearly that Czech Republic did not meet official commitments regarding the volume of ODA and that level of fragmentation of the ODA flows to LCDs was quite high when these trends were examined during the period 2000–2018. However, the Czech Republic’s development cooperation policy did not differ markedly from the policies of the other four ODA donors. Any significant differences were identified when the fundamental trends of Czech ODA flows were compared with those ones identified for Hungary, Poland, Slovakia and Slovenia.

Факторы развития российско-китайских экономических отношений в интеграционном поле Евразии

Introduction. We can confidently say already that in the current conditions of global economic development, China is the most important and priority partner in the development of our country’s foreign economic activity. Theoretical analysis. The development of a strategic approach to bilateral economic cooperation with China is the most relevant in the modern system of coordinates of Russia’s foreign economic activity. Nowadays China is really the most important and priority partner in the issues related to the development of our country’s foreign economic activity. There have been different stages in the history of relations between Russia and China, but their current state gives hope for even greater mutually beneficial effect in the strategic perspective. The need to study the formation, transformation and development of Russian-Chinese relations in the context of foreign economic relations and projects is due to the growing influence of China in Russia over the past four years, the cooling of relations between Russia and the West after the events of 2014 and the Russian “turn to the East”. Empirical analysis. Speaking about the effectiveness of foreign trade relations between Russia and China in 2019, it should be noted that Russia’s trade turnover with China in 2019 increased by 3.4% to $110.76 billion, including Russia’s exports to China increased by 3.2% to $61.05 billion, imports from China to Russia increased by 3.6% to $49.7 billion. In comparison, the trade turnover between China and the United States fell by 14.6% to $541.22 billion againist the background of a trade war between these countries. It amounted to USD 541.22 billion, with USD 418 billion coming from China to America. Results. The prerequisites and factors for further development of relations and deepening of trade and economic cooperation between Russia and China have recently been growing. In addition to classical factors: geographical, territorial and, consequently, common border, which allows the development of new forms of cooperation and business (cross-border trade, cross-border economic zones and clusters, interbank settlements in national currencies in border areas, etc.). Political factors are increasing, as well as the impact of modern world economic trends on deepening bilateral economic relations between the countries. However, it is important to remember that in today’s realities Russia needs China more than China needs Russia.

A Strategy for Responding to New Market Mechanisms based on the Technology Demands of Developing Countries: A Comparison of Technology Needs Assessment (TNA), Technical Assistance (TA) of the Climate Technology Center and Network (CTCN), and Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) in Six Priority Partner Countries

Developing countries continue to seek technological and financial support from the international community to more effectively respond to climate change. Through the Paris Agreement, many countries pledged to develop and implement a voluntary ‘Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC),’ and accordingly the demand for developing and transferring climate technology in developing countries is expected to expand further. In this regard, the present study discusses policy implications associated with accomplishing a national NDC by comparing the climate technology demands of developing countries and the present status of the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM). For this, technology needs assessments (TNAs) and Climate Technology Center Network Technical Assistance (CTCN TA) data were used to understand the technology demands of developing countries and to determine the present status of the CDM regarding technology demands for developed countries. To this end, six countries among South Korea’s priority partner countries were selected-Vietnam, Myanmar, Sri Lanka, Chile, Peru, and Mongolia. The results of this study can be used to establish a response strategy for new market mechanisms based on the technology demands of developing countries in the future, and can further provide implications for the development of domestic advanced climate technology companies.
