Abstract
The independence of Ukraine from the Soviet Union in 1991 meant not only
political liberation but the assumption of new obligations concerning human rights.
Questions arose in Ukraine regarding Ukraine's existing treaty commitments and the
possible ratification of new human rights treaties. By 1995, Ukraine's human rights
record received a better-than-passing grade in the U.S. Department of State's Country
Report on Human Rights Practices.1 Yet, much remains to be done in the sphere of
human rights in Ukraine, particularly concerning the human rights of women.
