Ten years after Russia’s annexation of Crimea, Ukraine remains resolute in reclaiming its territory. Despite international condemnation, Ukraine asserts that Crimea should one day return to its control. The situation escalated into all-out war in 2022, with ongoing military actions aimed at weakening the occupying forces. Ukrainian forces have successfully targeted Russian defenses in Crimea, highlighting the strategic importance of the region. While the timeline for Crimea’s liberation remains uncertain, Ukraine maintains overwhelming public support for reclaiming the territory. The focus is on gradually eroding Russian control through tactical military operations, while being mindful of potential escalations and allied concerns.
