What do these two commands display:

 ~ % aspell config dict-dir
 ~ % aspell config data-dir

And also in what directory do you have the above dictionaries shown by
"aspell dump dicts"?  What dictionary files you actually have there?
E.g., do you have uk.dat for the Ukrainian dictionary?

And what is the value of ispell-aspell-dictionary-alist after you load
Ispell?  (To find the value, type M-:, then the name of the variable,
then RET.)

Finally, what is the Aspell version?  What does "aspell -vv" produce?
