The aim of the study is to analyze the UCH management system in the Russian Federation and the obstacles to the integration of UCH into the maritime spatial planning on the example of the Eastern part of the Gulf of Finland of the Baltic Sea in order to preserve UCH and include it in tourist routes. Until now, UCH is not fully integrated into the national MSPs of the Baltic countries. At the same time, MSP does not have a legal status in the Russian Federation, its toolkit and national framework are under development. Russia has a unique opportunity to include MCH in the MSP from the very beginning, defining the key priority areas of UCH based on the experience of the Baltic countries and proposed methodology. The next step will be the development of pilot MSPs for the Russian parts of the Baltic Sea, taking into account the particular value of UCH.

The article focuses on the contradictions in the British regarding the continuation of military operations against the Soviet Republic at the end of 1919 and the participation of Estonia in the White struggle. Documents of British archives, and transcripts of proceedings of Parliament shows that after a series of military setbacks of the White forces, and the failure of formation with the direct pressure from the British military advisers of the government of the North-West Russia to create anti-Bolshevik coalition under the political control of the British commissioners in the Baltic countries, the mood in Parliament and the War Cabinet of Britain has changed. Speeches of liberal members of Parliament at the meetings of 1919-1920, note that the issue of concluding a Bolshevik-Estonian peace Treaty has become positively evaluated in wide circles of British society. Criticism of the «militarism» of the government became particularly acute after the peace of Tartu in January 1920, and the firmness of the Estonian government, which had making peace, was welcomed by a number of deputies. Minutes of meetings of the British Imperial War Cabinet and documents of the War Council also shows a shift from the policy of active involvement of the Baltic countries in the anti-Bolshevik struggle to recognition of the failure of this struggle and the impossibility of its revival by spending the financial and material resources, which were strongly necessary to solve other problems that arose in the British government after the end of the First world war.

This paper, and the following five papers, were presented during the NAV 97 Conference held at Church House, Westminster, London on 11th and 12th November 1997. A full listing of the Conference, and how to obtain a copy of the proceedings, is shown on Page 279.The Government of the Russian Federation has made available, subject to certain conditions, the GLONASS satellite radionavigation system for civil use. Use of the system is free and there is no intention to introduce coding or to cause any deterioration to the accuracy of the signals. Discussions are currently taking place between the European Commission and the Russian Federation on cooperation concerning the implementation of a navigation satellite system for civil purposes. Discussions are also taking place between interested European Governments and the Russian Federation into the possibility of developing joint Chayka/Loran-C chains wherever this is feasible, and in particular, to cover the Barents Sea, the Baltic Sea and the Black Sea. The development of a concept on integration of radionavigation systems would probably be a significant contribution to the European Radionavigation Plan.

So today in the conditions of the armed aggression of the Russian Federation towards Ukraine and the threat of security and tranquility in Europe, the Baltic countries provide Ukraine with military and economic assistance both within NATO and on a bilateral basis. This is the supply of ammunition that the Ukrainian Armed Forces needs in the forefront and assistance in the treatment and rehabilitation of our wounded soldiers and active assistance in providing professional advisers for military affairs and tactical medicine. The security dimension of relations between our countries is also the creation of a unique international military formation of LITPOLUKRBRIG, which practically allows us to work out our military interoperability and compatibility and is one of the largest and ambitious military cooperation projects.

The article describes the methods of financial and economic examinations to determine the insolvency of a company in the Baltic countries, Republic of Armenia, Ukraine, Republic of Belarus, the Russian Federation and Republic of Kazakhstan. The signs of insolvency regulated in legislation of the countries, and international requirements for the validation of expert methods are presented in the article. The authors present the results of a comparative analysis of the considered methods for assessing insolvency and results of testing methods based on data of annual reports of focus group of five Latvian bankrupt companies. The research has shown that the expert methods of all eight countries are based on a normative approach — comparing the calculated financial ratios with their normative value. In Ukraine, Republic of Belarus, the Russian Federation and Republic of Kazakhstan, the financial ratios and their normative values are approved in the legislation of the countries. In the Baltic countries and Republic of Armenia, these ratios and their values are developed in approved expert methodologies. The method of «net assets» is also used to assess the solvency of large companies. The test results showed that the methods of the countries reviewed are applicable in practice and give a similar assessment of the solvency of companies as a whole. More similar results present the methods of the Baltic countries, Ukraine and Republic of Belarus. The results of the methods of Republic of Armenia, Kazakhstan and the Russian Federation are more similar to each other, but slightly differ from the previously listed group of countries. The authors demonstrated the ability to validate the expert methods, which is necessary to use an expert conclusion on the assessment of insolvency as an evidence base in another country.

Since the collapse of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR), the Holocaust and other charges of genocide have emerged as flashpoints in memory wars between the Russian Federation and the Baltic states. This article examines the Russian government’s revival of the longstanding Soviet practice of publishing archival documents focused on Baltic participation in Nazi atrocities against Jews and other victims. It argues that state officials and historians in Russia and the Baltic countries continue to shape their usable pasts in response to one another. The Russian focus on Baltic collaboration with Hitler’s regime has fueled defensive rhetoric in Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania that has diminished and denied the role that local perpetrators played in the wartime persecution of Jews. Russia, in turn, has reacted to charges of a Nazi-Stalinist “Double Genocide” in the Baltic region by launching a campaign for international recognition of genocide against the “Soviet people”—Soviet Jews among them. To date, Western political scientists and policymakers have focused on Russia as propagating illiberal movement through disinformation. This study demonstrates how the publication of wartime archival documents contributes to illiberal memory politics both at home and among Russia’s detractors in the Baltic region.

The issues of the assessment of the common past play an important role in the mutual relations of the Russian Federation and the Baltic States. In Russian opinion, the establishment of joint commissions of historians was to reduce tensions on this line and improve the image of Russia abroad. Lithuania was the first of the Baltic countries to express a desire to dialogue with Russia on the common past – in 2006, the Joint Russian-Lithuanian was established. According to the declaration, the main goal of both committees was to activate scientific research, the conclusions of which could also be used in inter-state relations. The work of both committees was focused on historical events of the 20th century, and the main problem was the dispute over the interpretation of the seizure of the Baltic states by the USSR. In 2014, in connection with the events in Ukraine, Lithuania suspended the activities of the commission.
