Abstract

The content of the journals (minutes) of the meetings of the Council of Ministers of the Ukrainian State (1918) is explored, which allows us to find out certain aspects of foreign trade and customs affairs of that time in Ukraine. There is a reflection on the economic contacts of the Hetmanate with the countries of the Fourth Bloc, first of all Germany, in the field of food supplies from Ukraine to Central Europe, and the import of agricultural machinery to Ukraine, in government journals. The technology of negotiation processes concerning the conclusion of financial-economic and trade agreements between the Union states is highlighted. The level of economic dependence of the Ukrainian State on Germany, in particular on pricing for strategic products, the correlation of the rates of the corresponding currencies, and the export of Ukrainian agricultural products to third countries, is revealed. The contents of the Council of Ministers’ journals concerning the economic relations of the Hetmanate with the independent Don and Kuban, neighboring Romania and Soviet Russia, and other issues of trade and economic character are analyzed.
