The crisis in Ukraine began after the escalation of rhetoric of the Western-oriented government of the country about NATO membership, the relations between Kiev and Moscow became very tense. Following the escalation of tensions, Russian President Vladimir Putin on February 24, 2022 (March 5, 1400) ordered the military to begin “special military operations in Ukraine”. This order was issued a few days after the recognition of the independence of “Luhansk” and “Donetsk” from Ukraine.
Russian officials have announced that the country is seeking to secure its security interests, disarm Ukraine, de-Nazify the country, and ensure Ukraine’s non-membership in NATO.
