In the relations between Great Britain and the countries of Eastern Europe two periods are to be taken into consideration.
In the post-war period the changed balance of the world forces had a discrepant effect on the British policy towards the former socialist countries of Europe. The chief aim of its foreign policy remained the same — that is safeguarding and reserving the capitalist order in Europe. All the British governments insisted on the preservation and strengthening of NATO and the British-American military alliance recognizing, at the same time, the necessity of the coexistence of the two systems. The policy the ruling circles were pursuing was called "armed coexistence".
Great Britain together with other capitalist states sought contacts with the socialist countries. In 1959 the first five-year British-Soviet trade agreement was signed. Besides, some agreements on cultural and scientific relations and exchange programmes in the field of technology and education were concluded. Later new agreements on scientific and technical exchange were signed.
There were periods of wider co-operation and periods of recession in relations but in the 1960—1970 the Soviet-British co-operation was developing quite successfully.
The proclamation of the Act of Ukraine's Independence (August 24, 1991) has created an essentially new atmosphere in which international co-operation between Ukraine and the world community of nations, and a favourable investment climate for the Ukrainian national economy is developed.

APPENDIX 6
Read and render the text “Life of Youth in Britain” Life of Youth in Britain
Young people from all walks of life are united according to their interests by the established youth organizations in Britain. These organizations develop because of the contribution of both full-time and part-time youth workers and a great number of volunteers.
Outdoor pursuits involve anything from pony trekking to rock-climbing or canoeing and help young people go out from the confines of their home or their environment. Such pursuits nourish a spirit of self-relianceand help realize the importance of teamwork under a good leadership. All the major yputh organizations hold outdoor pursuits either by organizing special residential courses or by sending their members to take part in established courses or seminars in other cities and countries.
Local authorities and a number of multipurpose youth organizations provide the place for such activities as canoeing, sailing, rock-climbing, map reading, orienteering and cooking for survival; all of them encourage initiative and self-discipline.
Young people participate in "expedition courses" lasting 8, 12 or 20 days and involving adventurousjourneys by land or sea. There are also "specialist courses" for young people aged 17 and over to become involved in work with such groups as the homeless, the elderly and the disabled.
