The peculiarities of the formation of the political system in Ukraine, as well as the peculiarities of the development of political systems in Belarus and Turkmenistan, are revealed. Some features of the formation of the political system in post-Soviet Ukraine are singled out: 1. A system with a relatively low pace of social processes and a clak of perceptibility of social news. 2. Centralization with some elements of regionalization and decentralization. 3. The political system of modern Ukraine operates in an extraordinary, rather than normal, political and social situation. 4. Surface stability of the system (rapid transformation into instability through deepening of conflicts between the main political blocs, including within the state government).
