Russian
Invasion
of
Ukraine
Russia – Ukraine
Conflict
Background
 In 1991, Ukraine
gained independence after
the disintegration of the
Soviet Union.
 Russia gained maritime advantage
in Donetsk Basin, Ukraine's industrial
heartland after 2014
separatist insurgency.
 As a result, US and European Union
have decided to safeguard Ukraine's
border.
• As per UN, it states that as of
21 June, more than 5.2 million
refugees from Ukraine have
been recorded across Europe.
More than 3.5 million have
applied for temporary
residence in another country.
• Some Ukrainians travelled to
Russia from the pro-Russian
regions of Luhansk and
Donetsk.
•In May, The UN's
International Organization for
Migration (IOM) said that more than
seven million people remain
internally displaced.
•The IOM estimates that more
than half of the people who
are internally displaced are
women. They are victims of violence.
•The UN is working alongside
other organizations to provide cash,
food and other supplies.
• Winter wheat, spring barley,
rapeseed, sunflower and corn are
the country's main crops.
• The Russian hostilities have held
the Black Sea, making exports
impossible. This has led to the food
crisis all over the world.
• Millions of people across the world
are at risk of being driven into
starvation unless action is taken
now to respond together and at
scale.
• The war between Russia and Ukraine
is expected to increase inflation in
India. If inflation rises, it will increase
beyond the Reserve Bank's projected
figures and the country's central bank
will then be forced to increase the
rates.
• The commodity experts believe the
prices of Brent crude oil are likely to
increase to $105 a barrel. Due to this,
the crude oil imported into the
country will come at expensive
prices, the effect of which will be
seen in the form of a price rise. The
country’s auto sector will also be
affected. The impact of the war will
also be seen on the metal sector as
India has a good amount of metal
exports from Russia. If there are
more sanctions on Russia and metal
imports are banned then it can be a
big problem for India.
GEOPOLTIC
S OF THE
WORLD
o Crimea bridge was the
main gateway used by
Russian forces to supply
goods & food to the
Russian army in Crimea
o Lowered Confidence
of Russia
o Army can't sustain for
long
o Ukraine can reannex
its territories
•Europe is
highly dependent on
Russia for Coal and
Petroleum.
•Many countries,
have decided to isolate
Russia completely, to
cause Economic Crisis in
Russia, which may stop
the war.

Editor's Notes

  1. As per reports, President Vladimir Putin said his forces evacuated 140,000 civilians from Mariupol and insisted no one was forced to go to Russia. However, volunteer groups say they have helped thousands of Ukrainians leave Russia.
  2. Refugees are housed in reception centers. They are given food and medical care, and information about onward travel. They are entitled to social welfare payments and access to housing, medical treatment and schools.
  3. The beautiful city of Ukraine has turned into a city of dust and ruble in just a few days. Destroyed dreams, flattened houses and broken hearts — Russia’s ‘special military operation’, which began on 24 February, has caused untold misery and pain. This Invasion has caused the largest refugee crisis since World War 2. Thousands of people are dying everyday because of this aggression. The latest analysis shows that, as of March 24, at least 4,431 residential buildings, 92 factories and warehouses, 378 institutions of secondary and higher education, 138 health care institutions, 12 airports, seven thermal power plants and hydroelectric power plants have been damaged, destroyed or seized in Ukraine since the start of the Russian invasion on Feb. 24 -- totaling an estimated $63 billion. Before the war, Ukraine was known for its beautiful and diverse landscape and well-preserved culture and tradition. The Russians have even targeted Ukraine’s Culture and Historical Monuments.
  4. Violence directed at monuments and buildings might seem insignificant compared to the growing toll of injury and death inflicted on Ukrainian families, but for a country in the shadow of a threatening neighbor, culture and heritage can play a crucial role. The deliberate targeting of religious and cultural sites is also prohibited by the 1954 Hague Convention, although individual perpetrators have rarely been punished. As of May 19, 2022, the Ministry of Culture and Information Policy of Ukraine recorded 353 Russian war crimes against cultural heritage of Ukraine.  Most of the destruction – believed to have been carried out by invading Russian troops – has concentrated on Ukrainian memorials and places of worship. Fifty-eight churches, mosques, temples and cathedrals have now been listed, along with 111 memorial sites and nine public monuments. The war has also seen two arts venues attacked – including the theatre at Mariupol, and one archaeological site.   2,000 art objects are estimated to have been looted, and special squads exist to track down and expropriate antiquities such as Scythian artifacts from archaeological digs, to relocate to Russia.
  5. Planning to use these sites for more points: https://www.justsecurity.org/81440/climate-security-energy-security-and-the-russia-ukraine-war/ https://www.chathamhouse.org/2022/04/ukraine-war-and-threats-food-and-energy-security
