The Ukraine-Russia conflict
The Ukraine-Russia conflict has its roots in historical, political, and cultural differences, but the recent tensions escalated sharply in 2014 when Russia annexed Crimea, a peninsula that was previously part of Ukraine. This move was widely condemned by the international community, which saw it as a violation of Ukraine’s sovereignty and international law. Following the annexation, fighting broke out in Eastern Ukraine between Ukrainian forces and pro-Russian separatists. The conflict has resulted in thousands of deaths and has displaced many more. Despite multiple ceasefire attempts and peace talks, sporadic fighting and political tensions continue to smolder. The Ukraine-Russia situation remains a significant point of contention in global geopolitics, with many fearing a broader escalation in the region.
