Recently, Ukraine** Zelensky said that in the past two years of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, a total of 310,000 Ukrainian servicemen died heroically. In response, the Russian side responded that the actual number of the Ukrainian army exceeded 3830,000 people.
The conflict between Russia and Ukraine began in 2014 and can be traced back to Ukraine's former Viktor Yanukovych, who refused to sign an association agreement with the European Union in late 2013, opting for closer ties with Russia. This decision sparked a wave of demonstrations and ** in Ukraine, culminating in the Europa Revolution in Kiev in February 2014, popularly known as the "Ukrainian Revolution". During the revolution, violent clashes broke out in Ukraine, which led to Yanukovych being **forced**.
Since then, the Donetsk and Luhansk regions of eastern Ukraine have declared independence, and in May 2014 a referendum was held to declare the Donetsk People's Republic and the Luhansk People's Republic. Ukraine** does not recognize the independence of these regions and is trying to reclaim control by force. At the same time, Russia has intervened militarily in Ukraine, supporting pro-Russian separatist forces. Russia implemented the annexation of the Crimean peninsula and provided military support in the Donetsk and Luhansk regions. This has led to the outbreak of an ongoing armed conflict in eastern Ukraine, resulting in significant human and material losses.
Since February 24, 2022, the Russia-Ukraine conflict has escalated, and both sides have suffered huge losses in this war. We hope that the two sides can cease fire as soon as possible and resolve the dispute through peaceful negotiations, so that the people will no longer suffer from war.
