The World economic crisis had a significant impact on the economic relations of Ukraine and EU countries, changing the structure of trade in goods and services. Despite the crisis, negotiations between the UE and Ukraine on setting the Association Agreement, new twining and technical assistance projects were launched, cooperation was active in the energy sector etc. Financial crisis led to a decrease in the volume and fl ow of FDI from EU, although the presence of European bans in the country facilitated entry of more capital, than it would have been otherwise, as these banks actively re-capitalized Ukrainian daughter institutions. Ukraine remains a very important market for Europe, but still there is much to be done to improve economic development and relations.

Given the current international situation, the countries of Southern Caucasus face a historical choice between integration with the West, namely the European Union, or with the Customs Union with Russia, Kazakhstan and Belarus. Georgia made the first basic step on the path to EU integration by signing the Association Agreement with the European Union during the Eastern Partnership summit, which was held in Vilnius on 28–29 November 2013. The European Union is mostly interested in the cooperation with Azerbaijan because of its policy of diversifying energy supplies, and in Georgia the EU is interested only as atransit state and away to strengthen its political and economic position in Southern Caucasus. Armenia maintains a balance between the European Union and Russia. However, the signing of the Association Agreement with the EU is akey task for the countries of Southern Caucasus, because only in such away will these countries be able to increase the volume of trade and production quality, and also lower the prices of goods. The volume of trade in services with the EU is very low and is usually connected with the transport of goods. Undoubtedly abig influence in Southern Caucasus as well as political and economical pressure is exerted by Russia. Russia is interested in the expansion of its Customs Union onto other countries, including South Caucasus. When the European Union conducts quite asoft foreign policy in the region, Russia uses all possible resources for pulling in the South Caucasus countries to the Customs Union. Russian media wage acontinuous information war in which the Association Agreement with the EU is criticized. Therefore the EU must change its foreign policy by taking into account the policy of Russia and the specificity of the region and particular countries.

In the next ten years, it is likely that Eastern Europe will move from being an “emerging destination” to a key destination for outsourced activity. Outsourcing in Eastern Europe is facing many difficulties and challenges. But still during the last 10 years it has been growing rapidly. Romania and Ukraine recorded the largest growth in 2009 (in the post-global financial recession period). Hungary, Poland, Belarus, Czech Republic and Bulgaria followed closely. Upcoming trends in the Eastern European outsourcing sphere are likely to be consolidation and an increase in specialized services.

In the article the issue of withdrawal procedures of a Member State from the structure of the European Union is presented. For a better understanding of the problem of exit procedure, which in accordance with Article 50 TFEU is an integral part of the membership in the EU, is compared to other possible options of withdrawal from the EU. Also the example of Great Britain, whose citizens decided in a referendum to withdraw from the EU and actually initiated the first attempt at withdrawal from the European Union is presented. The main goal of the article is to present scenarios of future relations between the EU and the UK, as well as an attempt to predict future effects, which will take place in case of withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the EU. Scenarios and effects in general are similar for other countries of the European Union if they ever decide to withdraw from the EU.

Стаття присвячується проблематиці пов’язаній з правовими нормами виходу країни члена з Європейського Союзу. Актуальність статті пов’язується з рефендумом у Ве­ликобританії, мешканці якої проголосували за виходом країни із структур ЄС, ство­рюючи новий юридичний прецедент, який не мав місця у юридичній практиці Євро­пейського Союзу. Єдиним схожим був вихід Гренландії із складу Данії у 1985р., проте тоді мова йшла не про окрему державу, а про частину території однієї з держав членів. Для кращого розуміння проблематики автор презентує основні принципи меха­нізму членства країни у Європейському Союзі, а також представляє альтернативні способи виходу країни з ЄС, окрім ст. 50 ДФЄС. Метою статті є представлення сценаріїв розвитку майбутніх відносин між ЄС та Великобританією, а також спроба передбачення майбутніх ефектів, які виникнуть у разі виходу Об’єднаного Королівства з ЄС. Сценарії та ефекти у загальному будуть схожі і для інших країн-членів Європейського Союзу, якщо коли-небудь ними буде прийнято рішення про вихід з ЄС. Зараз існує фактично існує 5 можливих сценаріїв розвитку співпраці між Великобританією та ЄС, щодо яких ведуться переговори між представниками ЄС та Великобританії (переговори триватимуть до 2 років): 1) договір про асоціацію між Великобританією та ЄС — створення виключно зони вільної торгівлі, в рамках якої буде відбуватися експорт та імпорт послуг, а законодав­ство буде спільним лише у сферах пов’язаних з торгівлею; 2) договір згідно з яким Великобританія збереже доступ до спільного ринку ЄС, у схожому порядку як це відбувається поміж Швейцарією та Норвегією, в рамках якого будуть реалізуватися чотири свободи спільного ринку; 3) новий договір для Великобританії, який може включати елементи спільного ринку, а також окремі політики ЄС; 4 цілковита дезінтеграція Великобританії з Європейським Союзом і встановлення нових умов співпраці в рамках СОТ; 5) Великобританія, незважаючи на результати референдуму, може залишитися у складі Європейського Союзу. На сучасному етапі переговорів можна чітко стверджувати, що короткострокові ефекти виходу Великобританії з ЄС були негативними (втрата вартості акцій британських корпорацій, стрімке падіння курсу фунта і ін.), що стосується довгострокової перспективи, вона багато в чому буде залежати від типу договору, який Великобританія підпише з ЄС після виходу. У свою чергу одним з головних завдань ЄС є недопущення ефекту доміно серед інших країн членів, де поширюються євро скептичні погляди, який може призвести вихід Великобританії з ЄС.

The share of shadow economy in Ukraine is very difficult to be evaluated, because nowadays it is a part of all sectors of social life. Solving problems related to shadow economy requires concerted efforts of the state in all areas of economic and social policy. One thing is certain, the real participation of shadow economy is far bigger than the one which appears in data of Ukrainian and foreign experts. The part of shadow economy is so huge, that macro- and micro-economical indicators do not reflect the real state of economy in Ukraine. The fact is that legal system of Ukraine, in its current state, cannot counteract the corruption and money laundering in Ukraine, which increases the share of shadow economy in Ukraine. The strategic priorities of legalizing Ukraine’s economy at present stage are stimulation of investment processes, improving monetary policy, creating favorable conditions for business development, significant reduction and equalization of the tax burden, simplifying tax system, strengthening tax control in terms of production costs, efficient management of the public sector of economy, increased state oversight of public funds, loans and foreign investment, counteracting laundering of proceeds from crime, etc. To improve the quality of the fight against corruption, the following steps should be taken: continuing the development of the judiciary, taking actions to improve the independence of the judiciary, considering the problem of performance of a number of government agencies that are designed to coordinate the fight against corruption, reviewing principles of financial support for law enforcement agencies and providing measures to improve their wages. For majority of the Ukrainians illegal work in the black market, graft, corruption have become a part of life, which makes the possibility of joining the European Community for Ukraine very doubtful, without radical changes in society.

At the end of the 20th as well as the beginning of the 21st century, a series of armed confl icts took place in Eastern Europe. The Russian Federation participated or supported one of the parties in almost every confl ict in this region. The author presents the arguments in favor of the thesis that such Russia’s actions are not of an economic but a political nature. The goal of such actions is the realisation of Russia’s desire to strengthen its political position in the neighboring countries, using tools which are unacceptable in the majority of countries in the world. The main aim of this article is to analyze the economic of the Eastern regions of Ukraine, especially the territories covered by the military confl ict. The author presents the economic importance of these regions for the economy of Ukraine through the analysis of the main macroeconomic indicators and government expenditures aimed at the development of this region. Also, the author attempts to compare the confl ict in Eastern part of Ukraine with other similar confl icts in Eastern Europe in which Russia participated.

Rynek usług transportowych stanowi integralną część gospodarki regionalnej. Poprawność funkcjonowania tego rynku determinuje sprawność i efektywność działania całego systemu gospodarki kraju, poszczególnych regionów oraz współpracy między państwami. Celem artykułu jest określenie wpływu rynku transportowego w państwach należących do programu Partnerstwa Wschodniego (Ukraina, Mołdawia, Gruzja, Armenia i Azerbejdżan) dla wymiany handlowej między tymi krajami a Polską. Analiza rynku transportowego w państwach Partnerstwa oraz danych dotyczących wartości dóbr i usług transportowanych poszczególnymi środkami transportu między krajami Partnerstwa a Polską, pozwoliła na sformułowanie wniosku, iż źle rozwinięta infrastruktura transportowa w państwach Partnerstwa Wschodniego przyczynia się do hamowania wymiany handlowej między Polską a tymi państwami.

The market of transport services is an integral part of the regional economy. The correctness of functioning of this market determines the effectiveness and efficiency of the entire economic system of the country, the regions and cooperation between states. This article aims to determine the impact of the transport market in countries belonging to the Eastern Partnership (Ukraine, Moldova, Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan) on trade between these countries and Poland. Analysis of the transport market in the countries of the Partnership and data about the value of goods and services transported by various means of transport between the countries of the Partnership and Poland has allowed to conclude that poorly developed transport infrastructure in the countries of the Eastern Partnership contributes to inhibit trade between Poland and these countries.
