      ab: A study was conducted to assess the effectiveness of Ukraine's constitutional court in terms of mediating legislative-executive conflict and helping to ensure regime stability since its inception in 1997. Findings revealed that the court has made decisions in favor of both the president and the parliament, has played a mediating role in disputes between the legislature and executive branches, has managed to diffuse conflicts that threatened the stability of the regime, and has as a result earned respect for its decisions. It was concluded that if constitutional courts are to be as successful at mediating as in Ukraine, they must have extensive judicial review powers, their jurisdiction must be broad enough to encompass most separation of powers issues, and they must not be controlled through the appointment process by either the executive branch or the legislature.
