Abstract. Ucraine, being part of the Black Sea Region, found itself on the crossroad of the great power"s interests long time ago. Having little chances to develop its current official status as a non-aligned state on a way to the state"s neutrality byown resources, Ukraine brought itself into peculiar - almost deadlock - situation:it appeared to be outside existing security spaces in Europe. Always being "in beween" helps little in defending national interests.
