Ukraine's Unnamed War

Meer over het boek

Examining the roots of the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, the authors highlight the mischaracterization of the conflict as a 'civil war' and analyze the complexities that hindered a political resolution from 2015 to 2022. They argue that Russia's actions in Crimea and Eastern Donbas stemmed from a misunderstanding of the local population's loyalty to Ukraine. Utilizing Ukrainian documentary sources, the book offers insights into how Russia's intervention inadvertently strengthened Ukrainian national identity, making it accessible for non-specialist readers.
