In this comprehensive analysis, the unfolding events in Ukraine post-2014 shed light on Russia's blatant disregard for international norms and laws. Ever since Putin ascended to power, a resurgence of imperialist geopolitical motives became evident, reshaping Russia's view of Ukraine as a mere extension of its sphere of influence. Despite Ukraine's sovereign status following the Soviet Union's collapse, Russian elites persisted in considering it an inevitable part of Russia's realm.
Putin's response to Ukraine's pro-Western leanings, notably during the 2004 Orange Revolution and later the 2014 Revolution of Dignity, exemplifies Russia's intolerance of Ukrainian independence. Exploiting post-revolutionary chaos, Russia annexed Crimea through a dubious referendum conducted under the guise of legitimacy but backed by a visible presence of Russian troops.
Subsequently, Russia aimed to destabilize Eastern Ukraine, fomenting separatist sentiments in regions like Donbas. Through support of local oligarchies and manipulation of pro-Russian sentiment, Russia orchestrated the emergence of political entities aligned with its interests. Orchestrated incidents, including the takeover of administrative buildings by pro-Russian groups and the subsequent military intervention, underscored external interference and orchestrated upheaval in the region.
Russia's direct involvement escalated with the covert deployment of troops, arming of separatists, and orchestrating armed conflicts in Donbas, all while denying its role. Evidence of Russian troops' involvement, leaked phone conversations, and the downing of a civilian aircraft affirmed Russia's active military participation, leading to international outcry and accusations of violating sovereignty and international law.
Moreover, Russia's continuous denial of involvement and manipulation of peace negotiations, despite signed agreements like the Minsk Protocols, further exemplified a lack of adherence to diplomatic solutions and disregard for international accords. The collapse of ceasefires and continued military actions exposed Russia's insincerity and non-compliance with international resolutions.
In summary, Russia's actions in Ukraine, from annexation to covert military interventions, have systematically violated Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity. The orchestrated chaos, armed interventions, and denial of involvement in the face of evidence underscore Russia's blatant disregard for international laws and norms, perpetuating conflict and instability in the region.
