The Ukraine Conflict refers to the ongoing geopolitical struggle between Ukraine and Russia, which escalated significantly in 2014. It began with Russia’s annexation of Crimea following Ukraine’s Euromaidan protests and the ousting of pro-Russian President Viktor Yanukovych. This conflict also includes military engagements in eastern Ukraine, where Russian-backed separatists declared independence in regions such as Donetsk and Luhansk, leading to a protracted war. The situation involves issues of national sovereignty, territorial integrity, and international law, drawing widespread condemnation and sanctions against Russia from many countries. Additionally, the conflict has significant implications for regional security in Europe and has evolved with further crises, including the full-scale invasion of Ukraine by Russia in February 2022, which intensified global diplomatic tensions and led to widespread humanitarian consequences. The Ukraine Conflict represents struggles for national identity, influence, and control, reflecting broader East-West divisions.
