Summary/Abstract: For Ukraine strategic partnership with NATO is an integral part of the European integration course as complementary to the process of internal reforms in the context of the implementation of the Association Agreement between the European Union and the European Atomic Energy Community and their Member States, of the one part, and Ukraine, of the other part.The significant part of the thesis is devoted to classifications of indicators that measure the European integration progress. In addition to the existing classifications, the author suggests using a new one that analyzes all indicators according to two parameters: (1) as markers of how public administration values (legality, integrity/honesty, transparency, accountability, effectiveness) are adjusted and level of trust for public institution was changed over time; (2) as measurements of ability to integrate into different fields (policies, economy, law approximation, social field etc). The analysis of these indicators helped to generate their taxonomy to measure a progress. The author has specified that the lack of deep relations within regional trade agreements with democratic countries results in poor quality of regulation and ineffective governmental performance in Ukraine.
