In 2014, 360 years have passed since the conclusion of the agreement between the tsarists and Cossack governments in Pereyaslav (now Pereyaslav-Khmelnytsky), which was a turning point in subsequent historical processes that have long been observed in the mutual relations of the two peoples. This event also influenced the geopolitical situations both in the Eastern European region and throughout Europe. Today, it is possible to build different models for options, if there were the further fate of Ukraine and Russia in the event of changes in the policy of Bogdan Khmelnitsky and his successors after the mentioned action. But history does not know the conditional way, and everything happened as it happened. The peripetias in the relations that began in 1654, were reflected in the events, recently quite tragic, at the beginning of the XXI century.

The book in intended for historians, political scientists, lectures and students as well as those who are interested in the history of Ukraine.
