Abstract: | The current Russian war against Ukraine is of global
concern. It builds on the annexation of Crimea in 2014 and
subsequently the war in the Donbas region of Ukraine, and
has become a large-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine from
three directions, Crimea in the south, Russia in the east, and
Belarus in the north. Despite the geopolitical background
that, in the eyes of Russia, justifies its annexation of regions
in and around Ukraine, we cannot turn a blind eye towards
the untold miseries of the citizens of the invaded country.
Although it is unclear as to how the situation will unfold,
what is clear is that lives are being lost, many civilians are
being injured, traumatized, and valuable assets destroyed. [excerpt] |
