Abstract. In the article, differences between Chinese and classical Western concepts of defining
and calculating comprehensive national power were analysed. The definition and
particularities of soft and hard power were outlined. Criticism of a Chinese model of
comprehensive national power by Indian scientists was highlighted. By calculating
comprehensive national power, an index of Ukraine’s position among strategic partners of PRC
was outlined. The model of possible further development of bilateral and multilateral
cooperation of Ukraine with PRC and other economic and geopolitical leaders was provided.

The strategic objectives of China were set during the XIX Congress of
the Communist Party of China (CPC), held on October 18-24, 2017. In his
speech, the General Secretary of the Central Committee of the CPC, Xi Jinping,
articulated the following main goals: building a middle-income society and full
eradication of poverty by 2020; China’s rise to the level of innovative
countries, a reduction of the gap in income levels, including the gap between
urban and rural residents; elimination of threats to environmental security by
2035. It is determined that by 2050, PRC will assume its place as one of the
leading countries in the world in terms of national power and an international
influence156.
In 2011, close bilateral relations equivalent to strategic partnership
were formed between Ukraine and PRC. However, judging from the level of
effectiveness of foreign economic cooperation and potential threats to
Ukraine's economic security from expanding and deepening ties with the PRC,
the quality of existing cooperation with this country cannot be considered
satisfactory. The reason of this inefficiency is the faults of the national strategy
of relations with the People's Republic of China and other countries in the
region of Eastern Asia.
Over the past decade, the PRC’s international economic policy was
based primarily on a unique national school of international relations
developed by Chinese scholars as an alternative to American, English, French
and other existing schools of international economics157. It should be noted
that in the world political environment, China is a major advocate of peaceful
growth of the national economy and it urges countries to avoid any use of
military or aggressive measures that can be perceived as a threat by other
leading countries158.

systems and the fact that two systems require a different number of hours to
be mastered at least on the basic level of literacy. For example, in PRC the
minimum level of literacy involves mastering at least 1500 Chinese logosyllabic
characters, while in Mongolia or the Philippines literacy involves learning only
35 and 28 alphabetical units respectively 174.
4. Indian scholars claim that the English language proficiency is an
indisputable positive indicator that has a significant impact on integration into
the global environment. However, they do not take into account the existence
of dialects of the English language, and the gradual transformation of ‘Indian
English’ into a macaronic language with its own grammar. The widespread use
of such macaronic languages does not improve the development of an
international trade and diplomatic understanding; and in theory, it may even
be an obstacle in cultural exchange175.
5. Wuttikorn Chuwattananurak points out that China's military
spending is deliberately underestimated and evaluated with bias. At the same
time, it is not taken into account that there is no universal method of
calculation of a military budget. The final numbers presented in military
spending of each country are defined by the interpretation of the financial
statement and thus can be easily manipulated according to the principles of
national policy (some countries want to overestimate their military budget,
while others want to remain as secretive as possible about their military
potential)176.
6. Critics express doubts about China's nuclear potential because of the
fact that this country does not have any deployed nuclear warhead ready for
immediate use. The conflict revolving around the DPRK nuclear programme in
2015-2017 and the fact that even this country has developed its own means of
delivering nuclear weapons clearly indicate that the reluctance of the People's
Republic of China to have their own deployed nuclear warheads is not a
