THE UKRAINIAN DIASPORA IN ROMANIA AND SOCIAL ACTIONS: A VIEW FROM UKRAINE
Vladlen Makoukh [1]
Abstract
Despite the lack of deep interconnections between the Ukrainian Diaspora in Romania and the population in Ukraine, there are some positive signs of mutual interest. The Ukrainians in Romania are very anxious about the evolution of the conflict in Eastern Ukraine and would like to see it settled it as soon as possible. At the same time, it is important to ensure the impartiality of the media space regarding the events in Eastern Ukraine, for a proper assessment of the situation in the country. The conclusion of the Intergovernmental Agreement on local border traffic is very important for establishing interpersonal contacts between representatives of the Ukrainian Diaspora in Romania and the Ukrainian population. In addition, the creation of a consular post in Solotvino would enable more than two million citizens – both Romanian and Ukrainian – to cross the common border in a simplified form.
