KYIV - Ukraine's law enforcement bodies said on October 19 they had uncovered and squelched unauthorized and possibly violent civil disturbances, which they said were being planned for Kyiv by representatives of the Kaniv Four political coalition, and the coalition claimed the disclosure was yet another provocation by the presidential administration to discredit it.
Yurii Pyvovarov, the leader of the independent trade union, said his group had come to Kyiv to protest against the Kuchma administration and the failure of the government to back wages and pensions.
Moroz, a member of the Kaniv Four, whom the group seemed to endorse last week as its single candidate, has weathered much criticism and political abuse from Mr.
Kaniv Natural Reserve is one of the oldest reserves in Ukraine.
The area despite of being located in the densely populated center of Ukraine has retained the uniqueness of the relief, the beauty of the landscape, the immense richness of biodiversity.
The main function of the reserve is to protect standard and unique natural complexes of the Forest-Steppe Zone of Ukraine, protect biodiversity, and monitor the dynamics of natural processes.
Kaniv, Ukraine, an historic, culturally rich city of 35,000 is located on the Dnipro River about 120 km south of the capitol of Kyiv.
When we formalized our Sister City relationship with Kaniv in 1987, we had no way of knowing what great future changes would occur.
On August 24, 1991, Ukraine was the first Republic to declare its independence from the Soviet Union, establishing itself as a free nation.

The objective of the present study was to collect and analyse algae in the Kaniv reserve.
A total of 45 aquatic samples and 21 soil samples were collected and examined, and 430 species were found in various waters and in soils, including 267 new records for the reserve.
Analysis using Sorensen's coefficient for comparison of communities has shown that the composition of algal species depends on the type of water present (lake, ravine pond, reservoir etc.) and, where the waters are similar, on algal communities themselves, or on specific local conditions in the water.
In his study of monuments belonging to different historical epochs, Khvoika concluded that the settlements in the Dnipro river basin developed continuously and that the ever-changing cultures were mutually complementary, as well as confirming that early grain-growing culture is of local and therefore Slavic origin.
Excavations were concentrated on the fortified part of the town, the rampart surrounding it, and the territory of the outer town.
Kaniv and Pereyaslav-Khmelnitsky are famous centres of tourism and do not require any additional information in our reference guide.
He did negotiate with the Kaniv Four and even participated in their October 13 meeting, but it came to nothing.
The personal ambitions and contradictory politics of its members have severely damaged it, as has the October 2 assassination attempt on Vitrenko, in which one of Moroz' local campaign managers is said to be involved (see the Monitor, October 7).
The Kaniv Four have set October 25 as the final deadline for nominating a joint candidate against Kuchma.
The Kaniv Four alliance of candidates, who hoped with joint efforts to defeat the incumbent Leonid Kuchma, collapsed five days before the election date.
The alliance of the Socialist leader Oleksandr Moroz, parliament chairman Oleksandr Tkachenko, former Prime Minister Yevhen Marchuk and Cherkassy mayor Volodymyr Oliynik had recently seemed to be unraveling, owing to its inability to designate a joint candidate against Kuchma (see the Monitor, September 8, October 7, 22).
Within hours, Moroz, citing a decision of his Socialist Party, announced that he would continue the race to the finish, as standard bearer of the left, in the professed hope of entering the runoff and then defeating Kuchma on November 14.
At the instant Kaniv Pax entered the room, there was the sudden triggering of a silent alarm in the building.
Kaniv glared at the newly-found infidel, never losing concentration even as he removed the villip from his face.
Kaniv sneered at Luke, and then charged forward, hurling the glob of adhesive jelly at the Jedi's legs while at the same time swinging a diagonal slash aimed at Luke's shoulder.

Moreover, on 22 May, during a solemn occasion at the grave of Ukrainian national poet Taras Shevchenko in Kaniv, Yushchenko and Tymoshenko renewed their earlier pledge to form a coalition for the 2006 parliamentary elections of Yushchenko's Our Ukraine People's Union, Tymoshenko's Fatherland Party, and the People's Party headed by parliamentary speaker Volodymyr Lytvyn.
But some skeptics in Ukraine immediately recalled another election alliance made in Kaniv, by four presidential candidates during the 1999 presidential campaign (Yevhen Marchuk, Oleksandr Moroz, Volodymyr Oliynyk, and Oleksandr Tkachenko), which lasted no longer than three weeks.
What actually transpired between Yushchenko and Tymoshenko on 19 May? According to the influential and usually well-informed "Zerkalo nedeli," which attributed its information to four unnamed participants in the meeting, Yushchenko apologized to the Russian oil traders for Tymoshenko's cabinet, which, Yushchenko claimed, had obstructed their work.
Construction of the proposed USD 1.5 billion Kaniv pump storage plant (PSP) would bring more problems than solutions, according to a study presented to one of the project’s potential key backers, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD).
The study was put together by CEE Bankwatch Network and Ukrainian ecology, geology and archaeology experts from scientific institutions in an effort to gather detailed information on a highly risky project that has been developed in considerable secrecy.
