Problems of the Vendian of the East European Platform

East European Platform (EEP) is a stratotype area of the Vendian system distinguished by B. S. Sokolov in the early 50-ies of the last century. During the years of study of the Upper Precambrian in the EEP, the problems concerning correlation of the local Vendian stratigraphic units, divisions of regional correlation schemes and the General Stratigraphic Chart (GSC) have emerged. The paper proposes to take the Redkino, Kotlin, and Rovno horizons sequence as a stratotype of the Upper Vendian in the GSC; to introduce the Volhyn horizon in the volume of the Volhynian series of the southwest in the EEP Vendian system base, and to exclude from the EEP Vendian its lower division, Laplandian ice horizon.
Key words: Vendian, Laplandian, Redkino, Kotlin, Rovno horizons, global glaciation.
