Introduction

Uganda

Background:

The colonial boundaries created by Britain to delimit Uganda grouped

together a wide range of ethnic groups with different political

systems and cultures. These differences prevented the establishment

of a working political community after independence was achieved in

1962. The dictatorial regime of Idi AMIN (1971-79) was responsible

for the deaths of some 300,000 opponents; guerrilla war and human

rights abuses under Milton OBOTE (1980-85) claimed at least another

100,000 lives. The rule of Yoweri MUSEVENI since 1986 has brought

relative stability and economic growth to Uganda. During the 1990s,

the government promulgated non-party presidential and legislative

elections.

Economy

Uganda

Economy - overview:

Uganda has substantial natural resources, including fertile soils,

regular rainfall, and sizable mineral deposits of copper, cobalt,

gold, and other minerals. Agriculture is the most important sector

of the economy, employing over 80% of the work force. Coffee

accounts for the bulk of export revenues. Since 1986, the government

- with the support of foreign countries and international agencies -

has acted to rehabilitate and stabilize the economy by undertaking

currency reform, raising producer prices on export crops, increasing

prices of petroleum products, and improving civil service wages. The

policy changes are especially aimed at dampening inflation and

boosting production and export earnings. During 1990-2001, the

economy turned in a solid performance based on continued investment

in the rehabilitation of infrastructure, improved incentives for

production and exports, reduced inflation, gradually improved

domestic security, and the return of exiled Indian-Ugandan

entrepreneurs. Growth continues to be solid, despite variability in

the price of coffee, Uganda's principal export, and a consistent

upturn in Uganda's export markets. In 2000, Uganda qualified for

enhanced Highly Indebted Poor Countries (HIPC) debt relief worth

$1.3 billion and Paris Club debt relief worth $145 million. These

amounts combined with the original HIPC debt relief added up to

about $2 billion.

@Ukraine

Introduction

Ukraine

Background:

Ukraine was the center of the first eastern Slavic state, Kyivan

Rus, which during the 10th and 11th centuries was the largest and

most powerful state in Europe. Weakened by internecine quarrels and

Mongol invasions, Kyivan Rus was incorporated into the Grand Duchy

of Lithuania and eventually into the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.

The cultural and religious legacy of Kyivan Rus laid the foundation

for Ukrainian nationalism through subsequent centuries. A new

Ukrainian state, the Cossack Hetmanate, was established during the

mid-17th century after an uprising against the Poles. Despite

continuous Muscovite pressure, the Hetmanate managed to remain

autonomous for well over 100 years. During the latter part of the

18th century, most Ukrainian ethnographic territory was absorbed by

the Russian Empire. Following the collapse of czarist Russia in

1917, Ukraine was able to bring about a short-lived period of

independence (1917-20), but was reconquered and forced to endure a

brutal Soviet rule that engineered two artificial famines (1921-22

and 1932-33) in which over 8 million died. In World War II, German

and Soviet armies were responsible for some 7 to 8 million more

deaths. Although final independence for Ukraine was achieved in 1991

with the dissolution of the USSR, democracy remained elusive as the

legacy of state control and endemic corruption stalled efforts at

economic reform, privatization, and civil liberties. A peaceful mass

protest "Orange Revolution" in the closing months of 2004 forced the

authorities to overturn a rigged presidential election and to allow

a new internationally monitored vote that swept into power a

reformist slate under Viktor YUSHCHENKO. Subsequent internal

squabbles in the YUSHCHENKO camp allowed his rival Viktor YANUKOVYCH

to stage a comeback in parliamentary elections and become prime

minister in August of 2006. An early legislative election, brought

on by a political crisis in the spring of 2007, saw Yuliya

TYMOSHENKO, as head of an "Orange" coalition, installed as a new

prime minister in December 2007.
