Odessa writer Vsevolod Nepogodin announced today the launch of a new project - the Ukraine-2025 portal, which will work under the slogan “The generation of Artyom Buzina continues the work of Oles Buzina!” Artyom Buzila is a young Odessa journalist who was arrested last spring on charges of separatism and is still behind bars.

“Politnavigator” presents to readers a special project “Ukraine-2025”: we invited four popular bloggers representing the South, Center and East of the former Soviet republic to think about what will happen to this country in 10 years, and will it survive at all?
