Conclusion
It should be understood that the war on the front
will not be the end of the war between the
civilized and anti-human dimensions and will
continue in political, economic, and cultural
manifestations. Ukrainian culture will face
further harsh confrontation with the aggressive
Russian cultural attack, which lasted all the years
of independence (and before that all the centuries
of coexistence of Ukraine and Russia). At the
same time, before the full-scale Russian-
Ukrainian war of 2022, this cultural
confrontation had a localized regional character.
After Russia's military anger, this confrontation
became a subject for the entire civilized world.
The Ukrainian cultural struggle reaches a new
level and becomes a geopolitical process.
In scientific discourse, the principle of struggle
for Ukrainian culture - for its preservation,
development, etc. - has always spread. While
Ukrainian culture becomes one of the fronts of
struggle against the Russian aggressor. The
process of struggle of Ukrainian culture with a
hostile cultural and ideological dimension
begins. Culture acquires signs of a self-sufficient
element of national identity to fight against the
aggressor. Thus, the geopolitical dimension of
the culture of the Ukrainian people is formed,
which once again in history confirms its status in
the system of civilizational socio-cultural space.
