Ukraine post-elections: stability and reform at last?
With the recent Presidential elections Ukraine entered into a phase of potent changes. Following the election of Victor Yanukovych as the new President, the quick establishment of the new coalition gave rise to the formulation of the new government, which ambitiously aims at making the name of the coalition ‘Stability and Reform’ a lasting reality.
• Where will Ukraine be heading under this new political leadership?
• Will the new order change Ukraine’s strategic direction vis á vis the West and the East?
• Will it change the country’s domestic situation by bringing long sought stability and carrying
out unpopular reforms?
These and other questions will be debated at the discussion, which intends to analyse the outcome of the new appointments and offer a number of insights into how these changes might translate in the immediate and more distant future of Ukraine.
