Abstract
An investigation of the up-to-date geopolitical and civilization factors viewing the geopolitical choose of Ukraine is the goal of our publication. It is marked that different issues connected with the euro-integrative geopolitical vector of Ukraine need serious and multidiscipline scientific researches. The geopolitical state of Ukraine is characterized by its “bufferness” between East and West that calls a couple of problems connected with its boundary localization. Than, the challenges of our time caused by the newest ex-pansion of Russia are not principally new phenomenon in the Ukrainian history. It is stressed that developing by Ukraine the Baltic-Mediterranean geopolitical doctrine founded almost one hundred years ago by the Academician Stepan Rudnytsky is the best strategy for our country caused by the non-principal policy to Ukraine of the leading West-European states. An oriental list of countries that can be joined to the Baltic-Mediterranean axis is lined. Some immediate actions that the state must realize for renewing the control over natural resources of the country by the Ukrainian people – by the authors’ thought – are: renewing landscapes of Velyky Luh throw the liquidation of Kakhovka water-reservoir, blockade the North-Crimean channel on the administrative boundary between the Kherson region and Crimea and also active involvement of the foreign investitions into the sea-portal and transport infrastructure of the Black-sea regions of Ukraine.
