Abstract

Abstract. This article examines the role of the institution of the presidency in the intensification of Ukraine’s Euro-Atantic movement, encompassing European and Euro-Atlantic integration. The study establishes that the period of martial law has particuarly exacerbated national security issues and created favorable conditions for an effective Europeam integration movement. In this context, it is argues that the institution of the presidency has gained political independence and significantly influences Ukraine’s foreign policy.

The study of this issue employs general scientific and specialized methods, including analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction, and comparison. The author demonstrates that Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine has not only intensified foreign policy orientations but also created Ukraine’s image as a geopolitically significant state. Consequently, Ukraine’s interests must be considered in the current global context.
