Ukraine is one of the countries in the east European zone
Introduction
Ukraine is one of the countries in the east European area, its capital is kyiv and the number of inhabitants is 44.291.413. Approximate capita rent is 2.351 euros, and was in the presidency until 4 days. The outbreak of the Ukraine conflict is traced on November 21, 2013, night in which the massive revolt of the Euromaidan would begin, which would last 3 months. More than 130 people died on that night;Currently, they have lost their lives more than 13.000. The number of Spanish residents in Ukraine is very small, with only 320 Spaniards.
Developing
The Ukraine War, also known as the DonBass war, for being the region where most of the armed conflict is being developed, began on November 21, 2013 and remains until today, despite the fact that it has been replaced byNew events in the media eye. The clashes arise as a reaction to the failed Association and Free Trade Agreement with the European Union, the well -known Euromaidan Pact, just the night after President Viktor Worbachok denied the agreement. But, what began as a student protest for pro-Europe,
But pillars of the conflict had been settling in the country that began to be the division of in 1900. In 1922 Ukraine became part of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, but did he want to be part of the USSR? Not exactly, what happened is that in the interior of the country a civil war broke out, and there was also an external war against Poland that the Ukrainians lost. In this way, Ukraine was left in two: one part was annexed to Poland, and the other to the USSR.
The Ukraine part that was annexed to the Soviet Union, lived the moment in which Stalin promoted during the 20s the collectivization of agriculture. This process consists in the allocation of food quotas to the peasants by the State. Unable to subsist due to the lack of food, millions of Ukrainians died between 1932 and 1933. This time of hunger was baptized as Holodomor or the great famine and the Ukrainian part since then has claimed that it is historically recognized as a genocide. Stalin also eliminated the high -ranking military of Ukrainian from the Red Army, as well as those suspected of being able to become political enemies, among which were some Ukrainians.
In World War II, most Ukrainians fought Nazi invaders, but powerful military groups were also created that fought against the Russians, and even allied with the Nazis. In fact, a whole division of the SS called Galicia or Galitzia was created (by the Ukraine area called as the Spanish community).
Death Stalin, Nikita Kruschev changed the course of relationships and the USSR wanted to turn Ukraine into an industrial soviet. To do this they granted them favors and even gave them the Crimean Peninsula, despite having been Russian since the time of the Tsaries. However, in 1991, Ukraine took advantage of the weakness of the Soviet Union that was on the verge of economic collapse to become independent and since the creation of the European Union in 1991, the dispute between the desire for annexation and rejection of integration has been present in all in allGovernment changes in the country.
Beginning of the conflict
To understand how the Ukrainian citizens took the weapons, we have to go back to the night of November 21, 2013, at which time the fuse of disputes was turned on. What happened was that the previous day, November 20, the Ukraine Government of Viktor Yanukovich had suspended the signing of the Association Agreement and the Free Trade Agreement with the European Union (EU). And although on March 30, 2012, the European Union and Ukraine already signed an association agreement, the leaders of the European Union indicated that the agreements would not be ratified unless Ukraine resolved their internal problems, which included the fact thatYulia Timoshenko and Yuri Lutsenko had been sent to prison in 2011 and 2012. These Pro European political leaders headed in 2004 what was known as the orange revolution,
Returning to the night of November 21, which began as a student protest would end up expanding to different sectors of the population that joined for the discontent they shared before the management of the regions party and the results of their economic-social policy. That night 130 people died, of which 18 were police officers.
As of November 2013, the Ukrainian population is totally divided: 38.0% of Ukrainians supported an association with Russia, while 37.8% prefer to join with Europe. The Ukrainian division was being reflected since 2002 in the alteration of the different political parties in the government: Viktor Yanukovich was present for 3 period, and the Yulia Timoshenko and Viktor Yushchenko party ruled in 2 periods.
On the 2010 elections map we can clearly see how Ukraine is totally divided between those pro -Europeans and those who felt part of Russia, we know this based on the electoral map of the elections of that same year in which Viktor Yanukovih won thepresidency. While the majority of the population of the west zone is more comfortable with Western ideas, most of the west zone longed for the links with the Kremlin and sought in Viktor the approach to the Russian giant.
Since the beginning of March 2014, pro-ruse and groups contrary to the new government established in kyiv were carried out after the flight of the capital of Yanukovich, who had to leave the city to protect themselves from the attacks. A European pro -coalition government was then formed in kyiv. And in May 2014, elections were called to the winner of Petró Peroshenko. But as we have seen, the tension between both ideologies was already very large, and would grow more every month that passed mainly in the areas of Eastern Ukraine that had supported the region party, specifically in the provinces of Donetsk andLugansk, territories called as a whole DonBass.
The demonstrations throughout the East territory intensified after the annexation of Crimea and Sevastopol to the Russian Federation. In the context of Euromaidan, a series of demonstrations of those opposites began in Crime. The Ukrainian government in an attempt to stop the demonstrations that were taking place in the Peninsula carried out a military intervention. Similarly, the Moscow government, to which the Peninsula had asked for help, deployed the Armed Forces of Russia in Crimea and Sebastópol, with the objective, according to the Kremlin, to guarantee the integrity of the Ukrainians pro-ruses inhabitants of CrimeaAnd the Russian bases parked there. USA,
The city of Sebastópol decided on March 6 that it would be annexed to Russia as a federal part of the territory. On the other hand, the Government of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea on March 11, 2014 declared itself independent of Ukraine and announced that on March 16 they would make a referendum to decide whether to join Russia federally. And so it happened, 80% of the inhabitants of Crimea participated (most Russian or Russian Ukrainian speakers speakers) and the result was 96% of the votes in favor of independence.
With the example of the recent annexed to Russia Peninsula of Crimea, many citizens of the Ukrainian regions of Donetk and Lugansk also revealed themselves, and went out to the street demanding their independence and causing revolts and demonstrations that would worry the kyiv government. It was with 89% of the votes that Donetsk announces its independence from Ukraine, on April 7, 2014. A few days later, and following the models of their neighbors Donetk and Crimea, Lugansk declared himself as an independent state on May 12, 2014.
However, as we can see, not all citizens of these newly self-proclaimed countries agreed with the separation, so supporters of both one block and another took the weapons and began the armed conflict. However, this time, Russia would not occupy both territories as he did with Crimea, but would limit himself to grant military support, and even in 2017 Putin publicly declared that Russia would admit the Ukrainian passports of Russian citizens as valid in their territory. On the other hand, Ukraine supported by NATO sent reinforcements to both regions to support the pro-European side that refused to be part of the Russian power, thus leaving the map of the armed conflict
Currently, after 6 years of what seems to be a struggle that has no end, the pro-ruse and Ukrainian forces dispute the territory and none wants to yield. Agreements such as the Minsk II Peace Agreements have been brought that force high to fire, the withdrawal of the armament of the established control line and the exchange of prisoners, but these orders were disobeyed and both forces are entrenched in which they haveestablished as a border contact line of the armed sides, which travels both the Donetk and Lugansk region. The Ukrainians attack with cluster bombs and even phosphorus weapons, and Donbas receives all the Arsenal of Russia. There are currently more than 200.000 civilians in front of what the media have called Europe’s forgotten war.
Cities, airports, schools, hospitals and miles of people have had to flee their homes have been destroyed. As a girl has declared in a report that the newspaper El Confidencial: The Marina College in Zaitsevo is at the limit with the enemy line, beyond the kyiv army is. It is very dangerous to go to school because they bombard us every five minutes. We can’t leave home because a projectile can fall close. Many of my friends are on the side of Ukraine and I can’t visit them. I miss you.
The MISNK agreements have not served to stop the conflict, and Petro Peroshenko did not renew the friendly traction that united Moscow with Ukraine, and also the economic issues have come into play due to the fact that the majority of gas exported by Russia toEurope, passes through the Ukrainian ducts, which have taken the opportunity to impose extremely high tax rates and have forced Russia to build two alternative gas ducts that will cross the northern and southern European part respectively without going through Ukraine. kyiv for his part arrested Ukrainian sailors at the end of last year, which led Ucrabia to approve the martial law.
The most recent thing regarding the relations between the two countries is that Volodimir Zelenski has won the presidency elections this May 20, and has expressed the following in his speech:
It is necessary to protect Europe and those borders that we have achieved during these five years and that, unfortunately, are now threatened ’. ‘Our team will defend them. Our team will defend the course towards accession to the European Union and NATO
conclusion
As consequences of the Ukrainian crisis we have to begin the rupture of Russia with the West, which will affect not only economically both parties but also strategically, as well as the growing mutual distrust between NATO and the Asian country. It is also important to emphasize that the norms of public international law have been violated and as a consequence it is likely that the desire for independence from other regions that seek to separate from its current state follow the examples of the Russian regions, which will cause many internal tensions aboutAll at European level. It is likely that due to the loss of relations of Russia with the West, this country looks for new allies in Asia, such as China.
But the most important consequence is that today they have lost their lives between 12.000 and 13.000 people for a war that unfortunately, and that the media media do not give it the importance deserved, it is far from reaching its end unless real and complete cooperation was established both by the new president of Ukraine, Volodimir Zelenski, as for Vladimir Putin.
