More details to this question:
Hello. My wife is Ukrainian (Non-EU). I am Maltese (EU). We got married in Malta, hence she gained citizenship. May 2012 she left to Ukraine with 3 months pregnancy as she decided to give birth in Ukraine. I am the father of the unborn child. Now she decided not to continue the relation. I do not yet know the reason. What happens in this situation? How can I see my child? I have alot of questions to ask you, but what is to be done in this case?

If the child is born in the Ukraine, then you are going to need to request custody from the Ukraine courts. An American attorney is not going to be able to help you. You need to speak with a Ukrainian lawyer regarding your questions.
