War in ukraine

 Four days ago, the Russian army invaded several cities of Ukraine. There was shelling and many soldiers were injured and killed. 

What do you think about that? How do you think it will end?

  1. First of all, Ukraine obtained it's independence in 2014 but Russia considers that Ukraine is part of it's country, that's why Putin planned to invade Ukraine.
    I think that it is completely irresponsable to arrive to the state of war because it will just harm citizens. Moreover I heard that many infrastructures ,that are people's homes, were destroyed and that the Ukrainians have weapons to defend themselves that are given by the town halls. Kiev is the city that is the most affected by the Russian attacks, people have to hide in the subway with their children and their pets because they are attacked constantly with bombs and missiles.
    In my opinion this could end into an international conflict if the militaries of the other countries that are against Russia, will fight against the Russians. Thus I don't think that it is going to end like this because the other countries will not use violence yet, they will try to stop the Russians in other ways.

  2. First of all, a thought to the families who lost their loved ones, peace to their souls. Courage to the Ukrainians! It's terrible what's happening. It's so sad this kind of thing in the 21st century. The situation that Europe is living is frightening. I think there are other ways to solve conflicts than making war. To see that all this stops.

  3. As Putine said, he invade Ukraine because he didn't want it to be part of the OTAN, but we can easily understand that he doesn't want it to be an independent country. Ukraine got a important part of her history shared with Russia but it's not for that that Ukrainians feel like their are Russians. Some of my family are Ukrainians and I can say that everyone there is afraid of the occupations of Russians and is scared by bombs and missiles. I really hope that OTAN members will find a solution that doesn't need to use weapon as Russia could invade others countries and spread the war across Europe.

  4. Few days ago, Vladimir Poutine, the Russian president, declared war on Ukraine. He sent Russian soldiers in Ukraine to invade it. Emmanuel Macron, the French president and UE one for 6 months, has reacted many times to make this war stops. Despite all his efforts, tensions are still here. Indeed, bombs are send on Kiev, Ukraine’s capital, and hundreds of civilians have been killed because of them. Economic sanctions have been created against Russia to make Russia President stop his attacks, but for now, it doesn’t work.
     
     
    In my opinion, this is really interesting to follow all the news on this subject because I study geopolitics at school and it’s linked to our program. But I think this situation is very sad. People are hiding in the metro to avoid bombs and screens have been installed to entertain kids. Citizens miss of food and for now, they can’t leave Kiev because they are surrounded by Russians soldiers. Ukrainians men between 18 and 60 years old are stuck in their country to fight against Russian army. I am afraid that this war lasts and become another world war, a nuclear war. I have hope in the United states and in Europe to stop this war and to bring back peace in our continent. But for the moment, Vladimir Poutine doesn’t seem to want stop his attacks.
     
    To conclude, I would say that this war is scary because we don’t know how it will evolve and we don’t know what will be the consequences on our lives. But I keep hope for a peace in the coming weeks.

  5. First of all the war started because Putin wanted to get a part of Ukrainian territory where there are Russians. Then he wanted to avoid the entry of Ukraine into the NATO.

    I think this war is not justified by Putin. He just wants to have a bigger territory because he is afraid of Americans who are getting closer to his country especially if Ukraine enters NATO. So many civilians are dying because of this conflict. They didn't ask for war and now they're fleeing their towns to protect from the explosions. Also, I heard that Putin is threatening Ukraine and all countries that oppose him with dropping an atomic bomb. If the countries fail to reach an agreement, it could end in a world war. The consequences will be all the more dramatic since in the 21st century we have powerful weapons.

    To conclude I hope they will stop the war to agree on a treaty and save lives.

  6. The ONU announces that 836000 refugees have been count since the start of the war in Ukraine.

    This war opposes the Ukrainian government to Russia but the reactions throughout the world are almost unanimous after the outbreak of the Russian offensive in Ukraine
    All over the world, States condemn or, at least are worried about the situation because the Russia has chosen aggression against a sovereign and independent country
    Poutine is a dictator who threatens not only Ukraine but the whole world
    So, in my opinion, this conflict is a real threat to the future of our planet, some even claim that it could lead to a third world war. I have mixed feelings about the future of this situation since if the NATO countries react quickly to the Russian army then I think we can stop this war. And I hope it will not last long because many Ukrainian families are suffering from the loss of their families and their property.

  7. The actual conflict between Russia and Ukraine has existed since 2014. Few days ago, the Russian president Vladimir Poutine, decided to send his army to invade Ukraine. By this decision, he caused a war.

    First of all, the ultimate goal of Vladimir Poutine is to bring down the Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky. He then decided to invade and bombard the country. Ukrainian took up arms to defend themselves and to defend the international community against Russia.
    In my opinion, Vladimir Poutine just wants to show is power. In fact, he said a lot of threats to every country which wants to attack Russia. We do not know what he is able to do and I am very afraid about it. Every day we can read on the Internet the news about this war and this is very worrying.

    To conclude, I do not know what Emmanuel Macron want to do but I really hope that it is not the beginning of a world war and that the end is near. Peace is very important and in 2022 we have to resolve conflicts by communication and do not reproduce the mistakes of the past.

    Hello,
    First of all, the conflict between Russia and Ukraine is a complex one. It is therefore difficult to express one's views on this issue. Nevertheless, what is happening in Ukraine at the moment remains an unprecedented violence. Many families had to flee from their homes and took refuge in the metro to escape the bombings.
    Others have suffered violence. The images that have reached us from Ukraine, showing separated families, young people killed, are unbearable. It is difficult to predict how this war will end. I hope that agreements and negotiations will be made.

  9. First off, I’m sure Putin had his reasons to declare war but I think it could’ve been solved in another way, in this case war is useless, Ukraine is loosing a lot of young soldiers who are fighting for their country and families are putted in danger. This is a devastating news and I can’t imagine what the population of Ukraine is going through. In order for this war to end Putin is the only one who by just one demand can make this nightmare stop, but it seems like this is not going to happen any time soon. Let’s just hope for the best and pray.

  10. Russia must have reasons for declaring war on Ukraine. Russia was sanctioned on several subjects. Unfortunately the sanctions are also against France because there will be economic crises. the war will continue because several countries are getting involved, so I don't see the end coming. I'm afraid it will spread and become a world war.

  11. Hello,
    First of all, I am very sad for all Ukrainians. I think that we always thought that we would not have any more wars, but unfortunately we were wrong. Many people died unnecessarily, and because of conflicts that could have been solved otherwise. Other people cannot leave Ukraine and have to live with the fear that a bomb will fall on their house. I think that Europe must support Ukraine, and must take the necessary measures to prevent the conflict from spreading. Moreover, I also feel sorry for the Russians, who are manipulated, who don't know the truth, and who are lied to by the president to fight.

  12. I think it is terrible news fo Ukrainian because their country will be devastated by war. I think Russia must have reasons to do that but it is still not forgivable. I don't know at all how this wa will end because due to the too many characteristics. I hope this war will end soon and with peace and diplomacy.

  13. I was frustrated when I first heard about this tragedy. I couldn’t believe that a war had started. During my childhood I used to live in Russia that is why this news had a big impact on me. However by attacking Ukraine Putin is not only devastating life of Ukraine people, but Russian people too. Multinational companies have already stopped working in Russia and various sanctions are imposed everyday. Moreover I am incredibly sorry for everyone who is going through war in Ukraine. I think the fact that no one knows how or when this conflict will come to an end is absolutely terrifying. It’s in this type of situation that you realize the value of peace.

  14. Ukraine , it’s a country I grew in and even if now I’m not living there, it always will be the most important place for me.

    I know that people have different opinions about situation in Ukraine. However, the only thing that I want is to stop the war. People are dying, my country is destroying and my heart breaks everyday.

    I have no idea how it will stop. Each day I am hoping that the situation will be better tomorrow.
    My dream is to be able return to Ukraine one day.

    I think this war Poutine has started, is starting to get very big, for so little.
    I find, that Poutine just wants to show a power of domination. But that's not necessary.
    And how it will end, I don't know. First of all a lot of physical damage like ruined houses and other
    infrastructure. But also a lot of victims, like first of all Ukrainian or even Russian men who went to
    war when they didn't ask for anything and therefore put their lives at stake, at the risk of losing
    their families.
    Then I wonder, when Poutine has Ukraine, will he stop?

  16. Hello,
    First of all, I think that the situation in Ukraine is really sad. I hope that it will get better soon but we can't be sure about anything since there are many countries that have been in war for years, and for whom the situation has never improved. All the people who are fighting for Ukraine and for their country are really strong, and I hope that their efforts will pay off. However, I think that going as far as a war is quite scary. It shows that countries have not really evolved and are not able to solve their problems otherwise than by violence

  17. First of all the war in Ukraine is a tragedy as are all wars. Indeed the Ukrainien population is suffering greatly as a result of Russian aggression, civilians are having to hide themselves in bomb shelters, they lack food and water and live in constant fear.
    I wonder how it's going to end and I think it’s a great pity that NATO cannot intervene to stop this war. Therefore the outcome is totally unpredictable just as is the Russian president. Are we going towards a Third World War or will we find a peaceful solution for both sides ? Let us hope the latter !

  18. Indeed, the Russian army has invaded several cities in Ukraine. There have been bombardments and many soldiers have been injured and killed for several weeks.

    I find this horrible because there are so many innocent civilians who are dying in this war. The bombardments are destroying many buildings and have a big impact on the economy of Ukraine.

    But the Ukrainian president is standing up to Putin and not letting it happen, but I think Putin will eventually invade all the territory of Ukraine.

  19. February 24 Russia started a war against Ukraine. For me this is the worst news that has happened to me in a while. I still can't understand how this could happen especially in the 21st century. The first few days it felt like a nightmare that will end once i wake up. Unfortunately today is the 61st day that such a nightmare does not stop. I wish courage to the civil as well as to the fighters who face the enemies. I hope that this war will end as soon as possible and my country will be at peace forever. Moreover, I hope with all my heart that those responsible for crimes committed against humanity will be held accountable.
