international reactions and strategic developments

US President Donald Trump threatened to respond to attacks with new sanctions and tariffs against Russia, such as the news portal Gmünder daily mail . According to Russian information, up to 600 Ukrainian soldiers are said to have been lost within the last 24 hours. This goes hand in hand with Russia's attacks on the port city of Odessa, which are targeted by both military and civilian infrastructure.

Ukraines President Selenskyj accused Russia of showing no interest in peace. In an attempt to end the conflict, the United States and Ukraine plan talks about a possible ceasefire with Russia in Saudi Arabia. This initiative is fueled by the increasingly worrying regional situation and the declining support of Russia within the international community.

global effects of the conflict

War in Ukraine has massive global effects and polarizes the international system, whereby many countries take a position on different sides. According to information from SWP , the west has internationalized, whereby the West deeply in military, political and economical support for Ukraine is involved. Russia, on the other hand, receives arms from countries such as Iran and North Korea, while Chinese support helps to avoid western sanctions.

In addition to the direct effects of the conflict, the stability of other regions is at risk. Military cooperation with North Korea not only names this nation, but also undermines stability on the Korean peninsula. In addition, Russian aggressions have led to the destabilization of global markets, especially in the area of ​​nutritional security and energy supply, while Russia striving to strengthen international structures in which the West is not represented, further undermining trust in organizations such as the UN.

Overall, the humanitarian and security policy situation in Ukraine is still critical and requires urgent attention and support for the international community.
