Summary/Abstract: The authors of the article made an attempt to discuss the main scenarios of the evolution of the Ukrainian geopolitics in the face of the globalization and in the context of the external impacts, that is, mainly of Russia, the EU and the USA. The advantages and disadvantages of the existing multi-vector foreign policy of Ukraine as well as pro-European (pro-Western) orientation, moreover, pro-Russian orientation of the Ukrainian integrative vector were discussed.
