A detailed answer to all your doubts regarding the Ukraine War

1. Russian Invasion of Ukraine

2. Russia – Ukraine Conflict Background In 1991, Ukraine gained  independence after the disintegration of the Soviet Union.  ​ Russia gained maritime  advantage in  Donetsk Basin, Ukraine's industrial heartland after 2014 separatist insurgency.  ​ As a result, US and European  Union have decided to safeguard Ukraine's border. 

3. As per UN, it states that as of 21 June, more than 5.2 million refugees from Ukraine have been recorded across Europe. More than 3.5 million have applied for temporary residence in another country. Some Ukrainians travelled to Russia from the pro-Russian regions of Luhansk and Donetsk.

4. In May, The UN's International Organization for Migration (IOM) said that more than seven million people remain internally displaced. ​ The IOM estimates that more than half of the people who are internally displaced are women. They are victims of violence. ​ The UN is working alongside other organizations to provide cash, food and other supplies.

5. Winter wheat, spring barley, rapeseed, sunflower and corn are the country's main crops. The Russian hostilities have held the Black Sea, making exports impossible. This has led to the food crisis all over the world. Millions of people across the world are at risk of being driven into starvation unless action is taken now to respond together and at scale.

6. The war between Russia and Ukraine is expected to increase inflation in India. If inflation rises, it will increase beyond the Reserve Bank's projected figures and the country's central bank will then be forced to increase the rates. The commodity experts believe the prices of Brent crude oil are likely to increase to $105 a barrel. Due to this, the crude oil imported into the country will come at expensive prices, the effect of which will be seen in the form of a price rise. The country’s auto sector will also be affected. The impact of the war will also be seen on the metal sector as India has a good amount of metal exports from Russia. If there are more sanctions on Russia and metal imports are banned then it can be a big problem for India.
