LEARN MORE: 

The war between Russia and Ukraine apparently started as a local one, stemming from Moscow's desire to recover some strategically important Ukrainian territories in the Black Sea region, territories that belonged to it in the past and which today are inhabited by a majority Russian-speaking population. This bilateral conflict immediately proved to be a global one. The world economy was and is affected by this war. The security of the world is shaken by this war. The global order – the one known as pax americana – is called into question by this war.
