1.2 Statement of the problem
Russia has launched a large-scale
military offensive on Ukraine, after declaring Donetsk and Luhansk to be
independent nations (Allison,2022). It hardly needs to be said that
Russia is breaking international law defying the UN Charter's ban on the
use of force, the need to respect other nations' sovereignty and
territorial integrity, and the prohibition on involvement
(Allison,2022). Russia, on the other hand, is defending its conduct with
legalese. Some efforts at legal reasoning may be found in President
Vladimir Putin's recent statements, but they do not hold up to
examination (TASS. 2022). The war itself may be seen as a confrontation
between two opposed ideologies represented by the West (EU, UN, NATO) on
one side and Russia on the other. The European Union, together with
NATO, the United Nations, several nonprofit organizations, and the
United States, reflect a liberal democratic posture that Russia sees as a
danger to its survival and global power standing (Allison,2022).
However, the two separatist republics of Donetsk and Luhansk is believed
to being suppressed by the Ukrainian government, and even genocide is
being perpetrated against them, as well as the claimed Ukrainian
participation in NATO, are some of the perceived causes of this
invasion(Allison,2022). hence, the investigation into the causes and
effect of Russia's invasion of Ukraine will be conducted in this
context.
