The language problem has always been serious in Ukraine and often turned into an armed confrontation. This problem is becoming particularly acute in view of the invasion of Ukraine by the Russian Federation, one of the stated reasons for the "linguistic inequality". The aim of the article is to determine the impact of unregulated political lobbying by individuals or groups on the aggravation of language conflicts in Ukraine and compare it with other countries. The research involved the following methods: analysis and synthesis, statistical analysis, graphical methods, establishment of cause-effect relations and cluster analysis. The novelty of the research is the study of the impact of political lobbying on the development of language conflicts in the region by means of cluster analysis. The study established the relationship between legislative regulation of lobbying, language conflicts and corruption rates in the country. In the conclusions, the analysis shows that the availability of the institution of lobbying corresponds to lower rates of corruption and the virtual absence of language conflicts. The obtained results can be used by the government to improve Ukrainian legislation.

Unfortunately, human intelligence is increasingly becoming militant and destructive. A clear evidence is the full-scale invasion of Russia into Ukraine, centuries of enslavement of the Ukrainian people, destruction of Ukrainian culture and language. In fact, the current tragic events of the latest hybrid war exposed ethnocide and linguicide against Ukrainians. The aim of the article is to analyse the use of language as a manipulation tool for the realization of fundamental political interests. Research methods: historical method, content analysis, statistical analysis. The results of the study show that the hegemonic policy of the current Russian government is characterized by the aggressive hybrid war against Ukraine, which actively involves various manipulation tools, in particular language, in order to justify the occupation, violent means of domination and methods of control over its former colonies, in order to appropriate all the resources of the enslaved countries and peoples, in order to maintain the status of a global leader and dominate the world. Further research may focus on analysing the manifestations of the use of language as a manipulation tool by pro-Russian parties in Ukraine and other countries.
