Abstract
The article is dedicated to the analysis of problems and perspectives of sustainable and inclusive development of Ukraine, at the present state of its functioning. The main pillars of sustainable development, such as political, socio-economic, ecological, health and demographic were analyzed in space-time dimension. Ukraine declares compliance with the sustainable development principles and aims to change towards the implementation of this social ideology, however, in reality the implementation of sustainable development concepts is occurring very slowly and unsystematically. Therefore, Ukraine on its way to sustainable development and inclusive development is facing a complex range of typical and untypical social problems. A certain uniqueness of the situation and the geopolitical importance of Ukraine constantly puts in the spotlight the question of its support on the way to sustainable development on behalf of democratic countries. However, this support should be encouraged by the Ukrainian population consolidation towards the democratic choice and the decisive actions of the Ukrainian government towards the reforms recently implemented in the countries of Central and Eastern Europe to overcome the legacy of the authoritarian regimes.
