The article examines the current challenges facing Ukraine in the field of diplomacy and national security in the context of global instability. The role of diplomacy as a key foreign policy instrument aimed at protecting national interests and ensuring the security of the state in the system of in- ternational relations is analyzed. Special attention is paid to the relationship between diplomatic measures, military capabilities and information policy, which together form the national security strategy of Ukraine.
The main priorities of Ukraine’s foreign policy are considered, including integration into the European Union and NATO, strengthening strategic partnerships with Western countries, countering hybrid threats and preserv- ing territorial integrity. The political and diplomatic mechanisms used to attract international support for Ukraine are analyzed, in particular in the formation of an anti-Russian coalition, strengthening sanctions pressure and expanding military-technical cooperation with partner countries.
The article also highlights the role of international organizations in support- ing Ukraine’s security initiatives, as well as the impact of global processes, in particular multipolarity, the increase in the level of conflicts in the world and economic instability, on Ukrainian foreign policy. The need to strength- en the state’s information security as a component of diplomatic struggle in the international arena is particularly emphasized.
The authors conclude that for the effective implementation of its foreign policy strategy, Ukraine needs not only to strengthen diplomatic ties with international partners, but also to develop its own defense potential, en- hance economic stability and adapt its information security strategy to new challenges. Further research may focus on analyzing the effectiveness of Ukraine’s existing international alliances, the prospects for strengthening its position in the global security system, and ways to expand diplomatic initiatives to maintain stability in the region.
