Exactly ten years ago, Russia illegally annexed the Ukrainian peninsula of Crimea – apparently legitimized by a pseudo-consultation. Ukraine is determined to regain full control of its territory and is making plans for its recapture. To do this, difficult questions must be clarified.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and his government have set the goal of retaking Crimea, which remains the legal territory of Ukraine under international law. That was not always the case: at the beginning of the large-scale Russian invasion in February 2022, there were considerations in Kiev about accepting the transfer of territories in peace negotiations, Ukrainian historian Andrij Kudryatschenko explains to krone.at. He is director of the Institute of World History of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, which advises the government in Kiev on international issues.
