Conflit ukrainien

The term “Conflit ukrainien” refers to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, which began in 2014. The conflict primarily involves Ukraine’s central government and various separatist groups, particularly in the eastern regions of Donetsk and Luhansk, which have sought to assert independence from Ukraine or join Russia. The situation escalated significantly with Russia’s annexation of Crimea in March 2014, following Ukraine’s Euromaidan protests and the subsequent ousting of President Viktor Yanukovych.

The conflict is characterized by military engagements, political tension, and significant humanitarian issues, with thousands of casualties and widespread displacement of people. It also involves international dimensions, including sanctions against Russia and support for Ukraine from Western nations. The conflict has deep historical, cultural, and geopolitical roots, affecting relations between Ukraine, Russia, and the broader international community.
