Medical doctors in Ukraine now have access to English-language versions of international clinical protocols due to an agreement between the Ministry of Health and the Finnish company Duodecim Medical Publications Ltd, which specializes in evidence-based medicine [2]. The most important 100 protocols will become available in Ukrainian language in the near future. Registration is required to use them. In connection with the emergence of access to international clinical protocols, Presidential Adviser Mikhailo Radutsky noted that in his opinion “… genetic differences, in the course of certain or other diseases in representatives of different races, determine the peculiarities of their treatment. Therefore, the protocols should be national only, written in Ukrainian, adapted, approved by the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Justice. ”[3]. Minister of Healthcare Ulyana Suprun commented on that saying that the course and treatment of diseases have no national characteristics. From the point of view of modern science Mrs. Suprun's statement is much closer to the truth.

But the main reason for the large activity of illegal extraction of amber is the mass unemployment of the population on the territories of the amber deposits.
