The foreign economic activity of the country is determined to be a prior component of the national economy in the context of the functioning of the crisis phenomena caused by the war. The nature of foreign trade operations is investigated. The authors considered the structure of Ukrainian exports in the context of commodity groups. Examples of commodity groups are given, whose share in the structure of Ukrainian exports is one of the largest. The dynamics of the implementation of export and import operations over the past decade is analyzed. The factors of formation of a positive trade balance, namely the methods of tariff and non-tariff regulation in foreign economic policy, are substantiated. The problem of using a positive trade balance as an indicator of the good state of the state economy is identified, because some countries use this indicator as a tool to control inflation, and also have labor-intensive and non-environmental enterprises outside the country. A number of agreements that contribute to the intensification of Ukrainian activities have been studied.
