Abstract
Nowadays, our country is significantly changing and is moving towards European integration. Therefore, the role of diplomacy is growing considerably. Not only specialists, but also the media and society as a whole shows keen interest in aspects of foreign policy, which recently seemed narrowly specialized and technical, but today becomes the subject of much attention for supreme organs of State power. The features of modern requirements for the activities of the diplomatic service of Ukraine in the modern world are considered in this article. Changes in the world coincided with one of the most difficult, but inevitable periods in the centuries-old Ukrainian history, connected with the switching to the path of democracy and a market economy. Nowadays, the diplomatic service is building the foreign policy that gears towards ensuring reliable security, sovereignty and territorial integrity of the country, creating favourable external environment for its progressive development, economic growth, strengthening civil society, protecting the rights and freedoms of our citizens and compatriots. These are the principles which provide the basis of the updated concept of Ukraine’s foreign policy. Modern Ukraine has made a choice in favour of a foreign policy oriented towards the realization of national interests. This underlines the features of its historical continuity. First of all, the unique geopolitical situation of our country determined an extremely wide range of its foreign policy interests. Under no circumstances can Ukraine afford to pursue a passive or insulating foreign policy. Ukraine has vigorously entered European policy and has always remained the importance of one of the European countries. Another tradition arising from the peculiarities of Ukraine’s geopolitical position is the nature of its foreign policy. The country’s vital interests require Ukrainian diplomacy to actively develop relations with all countries in different parts of the world. Active participation in international organizations and regional integration structures, the development of bilateral relations is the guaranty of strengthening the positions. Today, when the world community faces new threats and challenges that can only be effectively confronted on the collective basis, the multilateralism of diplomatic activity is acquiring great importance. Against this background, the necessity of a world order that would be built on the basis of equal cooperation of counties becomes more and more obvious. Establishing such cooperation is one of the main directions of today’s diplomatic efforts of Ukraine, of course, in close collaboration with our friends and like-minded people in the world. As an integral part of the public service, the modern Ukrainian diplomatic service is closely connected with all elements of civil society with a regard to create a fair democratic world order. Diplomats and employees of the diplomatic corps may not disregard the increasing role of their activities in the line of work
