This paper shall therefore (a) analyze Kazakhstan’s information environment and the case of Ukraine, covered by the media; (b) determine how important and necessary the Euromaidan was for Ukraine in terms of national development strategy and goals. As for Kazakhstan (citizens, academia and authorities) it is still worth scrutinizing to anticipate challenges, negotiations and opportunities Kyiv has had to cooperate and balance between the EU and Russia to meet its national interests in long-term perspective and choose its own path to go. With that public opinion on Ukraine crisis, Ukraine-Kazakhstan bilateral relations as well as integration projects and vectors seem best to describe common ground and sense of interaction in a new paradigm of international relations.
