abstract = {The paper tackles the issue of the legal status of Minsk, Kyiv and Chisinau, i.e. the capital cities of some Eastern European countries. The consecutive chapters of this article present the general characteristics of local government in Belarus, Ukraine and Moldova, key legal acts regarding capitals and final conclusions. The paper acknowledges significant differences in the legal position between these cities and some main weaknesses. In the case of Minsk, it is a strong need for the country’s new local government model while in the case of Kyiv and Chisinau it is the need to optimise and strengthen the city’s local government. },
