title: The Ukrainian crisis and the question of sovereignty and territorial integrity
abstract: The current armed conflict between Russia and Ukraine is a consequence of their decade's long complex and complicated relations, which was influenced by the United States and the countries of Western Europe. The organization of the referendum and signing of the decree on the annexation of Crimea and Sevastopol to the Russian Federation, and the conflicts in the Donbass that lasted until 2018 significantly damaged the political relations of these two countries, which were part of the Soviet Union
