The beginning of the 21st century told all observers of international politics about the phenomenon of a rivalry revival between the West and the Russian Federation. Moscow’s resurgent imperialist aspirations are being negated both by the United States and by the countries of the European Union. In the context of world events, Washington loses its hegemonic position in favor of the reviving powers, which Russia is also included to nowadays. The territory of the Ukrainian state is the area in which the active phase of rivalry between the West and the Russian Federation currently takes place. The Donbas war is an exemplification of the Kremlin’s expansionist plans, because by destabilizing the integrity of Ukraine, Russia wants to restore control over this territory. This raises the fundamental issue concerning the subjectivity of Ukraine in the international arena. Therefore, will Ukraine be able to cope with the struggle of the great powers in the context of geopolitical clash, in which it is treated as the object of struggle? The multifaceted nature of this phenomenon is the basis of this article, which presents the situation of Ukraine in the context of the geopolitical rivalry between the West and the Russian Federation.

The article analyzes the main vectors of foreign policy of the Ukrainian state: the Eurasian, European, South-East. It focuses on the development of the South-East geopolitical areas through practical implementation of the concept “Intermarium” in the face of increasing international calls. The idea of creating a Baltic-black sea Union was supported by a number of Ukrainian and foreign figures: the Josef Pilsudski Siegfried Marocs Hrushevsky, Andrei Sinyavsky, Tadeusz Golovko, Wladyslaw Sikorski, Jaroslaw Kaczynski and other. It is noted that the implementation of the project “Intermarium” will have a significant geopolitical, economic and socio-cultural benefits.

Kant’s and Hegel’s ways to resolve the problem of correlation between the morality and religion at first glance seem to be opposite. Such opinion is evidenced by Hegel’s statements in which he puts himself into the opposition to Kant and demonstrates his own theoretical and methodological superiority. Many scholars of German Idealism support such opinion. But in spite of such radical alternativeness, in author’s opinion, it is possible to discover some mutual and non-contradicting positions of Kant and Hegel on the issue of correlation between the morality and religion. The purpose of this article is a comparison of the Kant’s and Hegel’s ways to resolve the problem of correlation between the morality and religion in order to discover the moments of complementarity in these extremely alternative philosophical systems. The results of this inquiry can be fruitfully assembled and used by the modern Ukrainian political and social science for resolving of this problem within the modern Ukrainian society. To achieve this purpose, it is necessary: a) to analyze and compare the general methodology used by Kant and Hegel in their philosophical systems; b) to conduct a comparison of their doctrines on morality, religion, and their correlation; c) to carry out a research in order to discover how Kant’s and Hegel’s theoretical and practical models, as well as achieved conclusions, can be fruitfully applied in the modern comprehension of the problem of correlation between the morality and religion.
