Abstract

Ukraine is an significant country not only from the aspect of the Black Sea Basin where it situates, but also with its political characteristics effecting beyond the regional diameter. This does not stem directly from Ukraine’s power but from its distinguished geopolitical position. Ethnically-politically divided structure of the country has been the starting point for analysis on each election. The process known as “Orange Revolution” of 2004-2005 concluded with failure because of various reasons, and, anew raising of the “Blues” who connotes “Russia” against the “Oranges” is being observed. However, because of structural reasons, it became difficult for the farewell to Orange wind to convert the anti-West attitude an official policy. In this study, Ukraine victory of Russia is examined within the frame of progressing West-Russia strategic relations.

Özet

Ukrayna, sadece bulunduğu Karadeniz havzası açısından değil bölge çapının ötesinde etkiler doğuran politik özellikleri ile önemli bir ülkedir. Bu, doğrudan Ukrayna’nın gücünden değil, ayrıcalıklı jeopolitiğinden kaynaklanmaktadır. Ülkenin etnik-siyasal bölünmüşlük arz eden yapısı her seçimde analizlerin temel çıkış noktasını oluşturmaktadır. “Turuncu Devrim” olarak bilinen 2004-2005 süreci, çeşitli nedenlerle başarısızlıkla sonuçlanmış, ülkede “Turuncuların” karşısında Rusya’yı çağrıştıran “Mavi”lerin yeniden yükselişi gözlenmiştir. Bununla birlikte, Batı’dan esen Turuncu rüzgâra vedanın mutlak bir Batı karşıtlığını resmi politika haline getirmesi yapısal nedenlerle zorlaşmıştır. Bu çalışmada Rusya’nın Ukrayna zaferi, enerji mecburiyetiyle gelişen Batı-Rusya stratejik ilişkileri çerçevesinde değerlendirilmektedir.
