The main trends of foreign sector of Ukraine have been researched. The key problems hindering its efficiency increase have been discovered, among which are the disproportionate distribution of resources, ineffective international specialization, limited geographical structure of foreign trade, dominance of imports in final consumption, export production dependence on imported raw materials, reduced foreign investment. Perspective directions of further development of Ukraine's foreign trade sector and its economy in general are proposed. Conclusion. Further development of Ukraine's economy can occur in the following scenarios: total transnationalization of economy of Ukraine will lead to the dominance of global corporations in key areas on the one hand, provide the ability to create jobs and contribute to the growth of foreign investment and the loss of the possibility of control over national resources on the other. Under the second scenario, the economy development will be accompanied by the strengthening of the destructive processes, in particular in key export-oriented economic activities through further use of existing production capacities without their modernization adjustment. According to the third (optimistic) scenario, the Association Agreement despite the existence of its supporters and critics still is the best of the available vectors of economic development.
