Russian Invasion of Ukraine
The Russo-Ukrainian War is an ongoing international conflict between Russia, alongside russian-backed separatists, and Ukraine, which began in February 2014.
No formal declaration of war has been issued in the ongoing russo-Ukrainian War. When putin announced the 2022 russian invasion of Ukraine, he claimed to commence a “special military operation”, side-stepping a formal declaration of war. The statement was, however, regarded as a declaration of war by the Ukrainian government and reported as such by many international news sources. While the Ukrainian parliament refers to russia as a “terrorist state” in regard to its military actions in Ukraine, it has not issued a formal declaration of war on its behalf.
In this section, we have collected the most current articles and reviews on the topic of the Russia’s War in Ukraine.
