The decision to grant Ukraine the status of a candidate for the EU membership is a crucial event for our country, and the evidence of transformations in globalisation. The war in Ukraine essentially defined two historical eras "before" and "after". For Ukraine, the war basically ended the country’s existence in the post-Soviet "family of friendly nations" and gave a chance for a civilized future, although the path to it will be extremely difficult. For European countries and institutions, Russian aggression turned out to be a “perfect storm” that explained the European community the need for updates in the world and European security systems, the international division of labour, global energy supplies and value chains for a peaceful future of humanity.
