6 ways to gain clarity on the cause and solution of the war.

1.

Understand International Relations.

2.

3.

Reflect on Russian national identity.

4.

Evaluate the Ukraine’s Language Law. “Ukraine’s New Language Law” came into force on 16 July 2019, aiming to strengthen the role of the Ukrainian language in state-building and territorial integrity. The law literally banned the Russian language in public universities, schools, military institutions, TV stations, radio stations, banks, hospitals and other state owned institutions..

5.

Reassess news & social media platforms. In conflict zones, where threats are on the rise, both Russian and Ukrainian armed groups rely on social media platforms for their activities such as coordinating movements, recruiting fighters and glorifying victories for their national and global audience in real time. The conflict is playing out with a massive misinformation and fake news, with no content analysis..

6.

Reexamine modern politics. Modern politics is more about building opinion, making alliances and manipulating the public than having realistic frameworks and plans to deal with the challenges of modern world..

One obvious characteristic of society with low level of civic virtue is to discriminate regarding race, ethnicity and religion. Since the 1990s Ukraine has been marching toward a devastating ethnic and religious division. Why is that?.
