Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapterpeer-review

Abstract

On February 24, 2022, the Russian army launched a large-scale invasion of the Ukrainian territory which, as a result of local resistance, failed to achieve the military objectives initially envisaged, giving rise to the entrenchment of a conflict that continues up to the time of writing. The war has reached the borders of the European Union (EU), revealing not only the geopolitical transformations that have taken place internationally in recent years, but also the different perceptions of the conflict on Ukrainian soil at a global level. This situation also extends to the positions of the three largest world economies: The United States, China, and the EU.
