Global Impact of Russia Ukraine War
The recent Russia vs. Ukraine war is becoming a global warming issue, and the whole world is suffering terribly economically and socially. Particularly in third-world countries where the economy is gradually recovering, the situation is dreadful. In this article, we will talk about the ins and outs of the war and try to portray every possible scenario that will happen shortly.
Plotting
The former Soviet Union and NATO were not allies and had a terrible relationship. NATO was established to protect itself from the attack of the Soviet Union. NATO means the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, and currently, it has a membership of 30.
In 1949, there were 12 primary members of the Alliance: Belgium, Denmark, France, Canada, Iceland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Portugal, Norway, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Later, they increased their number of members, creating a big conflict with the Soviet Union.
Later on, in the year 1991, the Soviet Union collapsed. It has a long history in the era of global politics.
Since 2000, several former Soviet countries have started to join NATO, and it is becoming an alarming issue for Russia. Russia reacted badly in the last few years when a new country wanted to join NATO. Russia didn't accept Ukraine's joining NATO.
Russia has a long border with Ukraine, so they didn't accept that their borders were unprotected. They considered it a big threat. Initially, they annexed Crimea and later tried to capture the northern and southern parts of the country.
The Ukrainian leader, Mr. Zelenyski, wants to join NATO and the European Union, which is becoming a big security issue for Russia.
Previously, Russia intervened in Georgia. The fighting took place in the strategically vulnerable South Caucasus region. It has been declared the first European war of the 21st century and one of the most vital issues.

Analysis of the War
NATO, which includes the United States and the European Union, has put significant pressure on Russia. They put thousands of economic and political sanctions against Russia. Initially, the Russian economy was crippled a little bit, and it looks like the end of the game.
Somehow they survived when they started to sell oil and gas to India and China. They have given a 30% discount per barrel, enticing the big country to buy Russian oil. Eventually, they succeed in this race.
As a result, oil and gas prices are rapidly increasing. We are all aware that if gas and oil prices rise, it will affect every good on the market. The person who is living below the poverty line is in terrible condition.
The economic sanctions hurt not only Russia but also several countries in Asia and Africa. Especially those whose imports exceed their export earnings. The export is becoming much larger than in previous times.
Who is Winning the War in Ukraine in 2022?
It is hard to say who is winning the war in Ukraine. Currently, Russian soldiers are fighting in Ukraine and are not performing well. However, most of the Ukrainian petroleum and electricity infrastructure has been destroyed. It puts Ukraine in reverse in the game. Both teams have lost thousands of soldiers.
The West is putting tremendous pressure on Russia, and hundreds of sanctions are killing their economy and several service sectors. However, they didn’t recognize that thousands of poor people live terrible lives.
Currently, the G7 has put a price cap on Russian oil, and they think Moscow cannot continue the war for a long time! Let’s see how it goes for Russia. Most people around the world put their voices in favor of Ukraine. It is a big plus point for the Ukrainian Government.
Russia Vs. Ukraine War Map
The war began in 2014 when the Russian forces captured “Crimea.” They took Sevastopol port from Ukraine. Gradually, they took all four regions named Donetsk, Luhansk, Kherson, and Zaporizhzhia. The Ukrainian soldier fought back and took some areas of Kharkiv and Kherson. They have recognized it as a big victory.
President Zelenosky wishes to have Crimea back by fighting. On the other hand, Russian President Vladimir Putin said they would protect all those four states at any cost. Currently, a terrible fight between the Russian armed forces and the Ukrainians is going on.
From the source of the BBC, 100-150 Ukrainian soldiers are dying daily due to this war. The situation is terrible. Thousands of people are living a miserable life. They do not have electricity in their homes.
The Global Impact of the War | Russia vs. Ukraine
The global impact of the Russia-Ukraine war is terrible. The reason is that both countries have produced a lot of food, such as wheat and oil. When the Western world sanctioned Russia, the price rose rapidly. Russia stopped gas supplies to the European Union and banned Russian oil.
Russia is a huge country, one of the world's top food and petroleum (oil and gas) suppliers. When they got sanctions from the West, there was a market shortage of oil and gas. As a result, the price is skyrocketing. Poor countries, especially third-world countries, cannot afford such a high price. As a result, they are suffering from inflation and electricity shortages.
Russia vs. Ukraine War Summary
The summary is terrible. The world is at risk of food and liquid gas shortages, which could greatly threaten humanity. If the war continues for the next few years, there might be a high risk of great inflation. It will hurt the lifestyle.
We hope this war will end soon and the world will be stable. We want peace, not war. Killing a man is the most terrible thing in the world. We Predict that the world will face severe consequences from this war. Not only will emerging countries suffer greatly, but so will developed countries.
In short, we can say that this war destabilized not only the European economy but also the economies of Asia and Africa. The scenario is horrific. Millions of people live below the poverty line and lead miserable lives.
