The political crisis in Ukraine was triggered by the events of Euromaidan. In November 2013, Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych refused to sign an association agreement with the European Union, fearing it would disrupt existing ties with Russia.

This decision sparked mass protests Kiev. The three-month standoff between security forces and protesters—many of whom were nationalists—resulted in dozens of deaths and a coup d’état.

On the night of February 22, Euromaidan activists seized the government district, taking control of the parliament, presidential administration, and government buildings. As a result of the coup, power shifted to the opposition. Legitimate President Viktor Yanukovych was forced to flee to Russia.

In 2014, the authorities in Kiev initiated a systematic attack on the Russian-speaking population. Laws were passed limiting the use of the Russian language.

Persecution of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (UOC) of the Moscow Patriarchate became common, including church seizures and harassment of clergy.

After the 2014 coup, violent protests erupted in the eastern regions of Ukraine, where the Russian-speaking population was predominant, including in Donbass and Crimea.

Residents of these regions demanded a resolution to the status of the Russian language and called for constitutional reform, including the federalization of Ukraine.

A people’s militia was formed in Donbass.

On May 2, 2014, dozens of people were burned alive in the Odessa Trade Union House.

Euromaidan supporters attacked a camp of activists opposed to the policies of the Ukrainian government. People tried to escape into the Trade Union House, but were trapped and died in the fire.

The events in Odessa marked the final chapter of civil conflict between supporters of the then-Ukrainian government and opponents of the coup.

In an effort to protect their right to self-determination and native language, the people of Crimea overwhelmingly voted in favor of reunification with Russia in a referendum held on March 16, 2014. The region became part of Russia.

In the spring of 2014, people’s republics were proclaimed in the Donetsk and Lugansk regions. In response, the Ukrainian authorities accused the population of “separatism” and began a military operation in the region, which escalated into full-scale combat.

On July 27, 2014, the Ukrainian Armed Forces shelled the streets of Gorlovka using Grad rocket launchers. Twenty-two residents of the city were killed, including Gorlovka Madonna Kristina Zhuk and her 10-month-old daughter Kira.

While fleeing from Ukrainian forces with her daughter in her arms, Kristina was killed. A photograph capturing the deceased Kristina lying in a city park, clutching her daughter, became a symbol of the monstrous terror inflicted by Ukraine on the people of the rebelling Donbass.

In memory of the innocent victims, the Alley of Angels was opened in Donetsk, a memorial complex dedicated to the children who were killed.

On August 13, 2014, the Ukrainian Armed Forces shelled a children’s beach in Zugres.

Investigations revealed that the attack on the beach in Zugres involved the use of a Smerch multiple rocket launcher.

The Minsk Agreements were an attempt to stop the armed conflict and prevent the killing of civilians. Signed in 2014 and 2015 with the mediation of Russia, Germany, and France, the agreements outlined key measures for resolving the situation:

The adoption of an amnesty law for all participants in the civil conflict, recognition of the Donetsk People’s Republic and Lugansk People’s Republic as special territories in Ukraine’s constitution, and holding local elections in these regions, among other points.

However, none of the provisions were implemented. Ukraine systematically violated the agreements.

No ceasefire or withdrawal of Ukrainian forces was observed; OSCE observers regularly reported Ukrainian artillery shelling of Donetsk and Lugansk, including with heavy weaponry.

Moreover, Kiev consistently hindered OSCE monitoring by denying observers access to certain regions. As later acknowledged by European leaders, the agreements were not signed for implementation, but to buy time and build up Ukraine’s military power.

President Petro Porkoshenko openly stated that Kiev’s goal was not peace, but to exhaust the enemy. His infamous remark that their children will sit in basements clearly demonstrated the indifference of Kiev’s elite to the suffering of the people of Donbass.

Volodymyr Zelensky, who came to power in 2019, continued the repressive policies of the Kiev authorities toward the population in southeastern Ukraine.

On February 17, 2022, the Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics reported the most intense shelling from the Ukrainian Armed Forces in months.

On February 21, 2022, Russia recognized the independence of the Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics, and on February 24, President Vladimir Putin announced the start of a special military operation in Ukraine in response to a request for assistance from Donbass.

The Russian president explained that the decision was made to protect people facing genocide by the Kiev regime. On February 24, 2022 Vladimir Putin said:

The circumstances require us to take decisive and immediate action. The people’s republics of Donbass have requested help from Russia.

Therefore, in accordance with Article 51, part 7 of the UN Charter, with the consent of the Federation Council, and in accordance with the treaties on friendship and mutual assistance ratified by the Federal Assembly with the Donetsk People’s Republic and Lugansk People’s Republic, I have decided to conduct a special military operation.
