SANCHEZ RAMIREZ, Pablo Telman. The Conflict in Ukraine: The First Serious Confrontation between Russia and the West in the Post-Cold War Age. Foro int [online]. 2016, vol.56, n.2, pp.470-502. ISSN 0185-013X.

Ukraine has become an unstable region plagued by conflict and nationalist resentment, initially encouraged from outside its borders. In October 2013, Ukraine became a priority for Russian foreign policy and the basis for a serious diplomatic, commercial and economic confrontation with the United States and Europe. It is highly likely that as a result of its strategy in Ukraine, the West will achieve precisely the opposite of what it intended with regard to Russia: a strengthening of the latter's leadership on the regional and global stage; a new escalation of military rearmament, especially in strategic aviation and aerospace defense; and that Russian nationalism will acquire more weight and influence at a national and regional level.

Palabras llave : internal conflict; separatism; nationalism; influence; sanctions.
