The Formation of a New Geopolitical Picture of the World Under the Conditions of the Russian-Ukrainian Military Conflict

The article examines the geopolitical orientations of Ukraine in the context of modern challenges, in particular full-scale aggression by Russia. In particular, it is noted. that in the conditions of intensification of modern challenges and in particular military aggression against Ukraine, the geopolitical role of the USA as a world leader has significantly strengthened. Today, the European Union, whose countries also actively help Ukraine, is strengthening its role in the world. However, there are certain contradictions within the European Union. Thus, the countries of Eastern Europe and the Baltic States are very actively helping Ukraine, because they understand that if Ukraine falls under the blows of Russia, then they will be next. But the countries of Western Europe, in particular Germany and France, although they help Ukraine, are in favor of negotiations with Russia, believing that Putin needs to save face, although how can we talk about certain negotiations when the Kremlin leader destroys tens of thousands of the civilian population of Ukraine. Therefore, today even Germany and France are gradually changing their rhetoric, providing Ukraine with all the necessary weapons to defeat the Russian aggressor. As for the countries of the Global South, most of them take a neutral position, trying not to intervene in the conflict. However, international support for Ukraine is gradually increasing, as even the countries of the global South are gradually realizing that it is not worth supporting the aggressor country - Russia, which is gradually turning into a geopolitical pariah.
