The first word, when speak of Russia, comes to your mind is Putin. The country is in race for dominance in the world. The question is why Putin started this war ? Thing is that it all start when US intervene in this through NATO back counties to tackle the supremacy in the geopolitical region. Ukraine and Russia share a border with each other and neighbored country. So how it is possible that Russia would allow It's enemy to be So closed to him.
In this conflict there are two side. When you think of Russia, Putin started it on purpose.
One month after the occupation, Russia declared that its main objective was to liberate the Donbas, targeting the eastern Ukrainian regions of Luhansk and Donetsk. More than a third of the region has already been occupied by Russian forces since the war began in 2014, and now Russia wants to take it over.
The Kremlin says it has "completely achieved" the goal of the first phase of the occupation, which it describes as a reduction in the strength of the war against Ukraine.
"Putin needs to win," said Andrei Kfortov, chairman of Russia's International Atomic Energy Agency. "At least he needs something that he can present to his constituency as a success." Russia traditionally holds a World War II parade on May 9, and this is considered the last resort for meaningful results.
Russian officials continue to speak the language of "denazification", but now they are focusing on occupying the two main eastern regions and creating a land route along the south coast, east of Crimea to the Russian border. It is unknown at this time what he will do after leaving the post.
President Putin has not stopped the talks that have been going on for weeks. However, the only Western leader he has met since the war began, Karl Nehammer of Austria, says he has entered "war security".
The Ukrainian leader said he would continue talks despite Russian military atrocities on Ukrainian soil "because Ukraine must have peace. We are in Europe in the 21st century."
But he has already agreed that his country will not be accepted by NATO: "It is true that it must be accepted."
President Putin was surprised at the extent of the West's response to his attack and was angry. Not only is Ukraine supplied with weapons, but the build-up of restrictions threatens Russia's economic growth by 10% this year.
The EU, the US, the UK and other Western countries have attacked the Russian economy in several ways:
The Russian central bank has closed its banks and SWIFT has closed its central bank.
The United States bans Russian imports of oil and gas; The EU intends to reduce its gas imports by two thirds in one year; and Britain intends to eliminate Russian oil by the end of 2022
Germany has suspended support for the Russian Nord Stream 2 pipeline, a major investment by Russian and European companies.
Russian airlines are prohibited from flying to the European Union, the United Kingdom, the United States and Canada
President Putin and his daughters, Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and many others are banned.
No peace agreement with Ukraine will end the blockade, Vladimir Putin knows. He instead, maybe, he turned against the Corruption that was against the war. "The Russians can distinguish between real foreigners, cats and traitors," he said.
More than 15,400 military demonstrators were arrested and almost all secret media were closed.
There was no significant political opposition left as they fled the country, nor in the case of the politician Alexei Navalny, who was imprisoned for many years in harsh colonial prisons.
