Overview

The war, which began with the Russian invasion of Ukraine on 24 February 2022, is the most significant conflict of the century so far, even outstripping the US invasion of Afghanistan and Iraq. With it, war revisited Europe after 70 years, plunged it into turmoil, and directly or indirectly, impacted the entire globe. What makes it worse than earlier wars, is the nuclear shadow hovering over it which threatens to darken the world. A war which everyone thought would be over in a fortnight or so, extended interminably. The sheer scope of the war is reminiscent of the Second World War, and many of the battles were fought on the same ground. The book traces the background and major flow of events right from the crucial battle of Kyiv and Kharkov in the initial days, the Russian capture of the coast, the Donbas battles, the Ukrainian counter-offensive and the Russian response. The economic and geopolitical aspects are highlighted. The impact on India and the world, with a likely emergence of a new global order, have been delved into in detail. The book takes you through the course of the war and helps envision its impact, as it explores one of the most epochal events of our times.
