The INF treaty, which was signed by R. Reagan and M. Gorbachev in 1987, banned ballistic and cruise missiles with a range from 500 to 5500 km. It was the first disarmament treaty that completely eliminated the entire class of already existing weapons, becoming one of the main foundations of the security of Europe. Its importance was recalled along with recurring reports of Russia’s likely violation of the treaty. If the forbidden missiles reappear on the armaments of the Russian army, and there are many indications that this has already happened, it may disrupt the strategic stability in Europe.

The formation of first Galician Army divisions
The following article focuses on the investigation of how the first Galician Army parts were formed, starting from November 1st protest to the adoption of military duty law. The article reflects research of how the army was formed by reorganizing of Ukrainian troops of the former Austrian army, and mobilization of volunteers. Based on the literature review (i.e. magazine articles, advertisements, messages, reports) the nature of protest, troop mobilization and military formation in various regions of eastern Ukraine is shown. The article describes the role of local officers and activists in creation of first Ukrainian divisions as well as issues associated with location and time of army creation.
