Pour ce faire, il avait commence a rassembler des informations, convaincu qu'en Russie, a part Vladimir Poutine, personne n'avait besoin de cette guerre qui lui aura permis de faire remonter sa cote de popularite de 44 a 89 %. Boris Nemtsov n'a pas eu le temps d'achever son requisitoire. Il a ete abattu par des tueurs le 27 fevrier 2015, sous les murs du Kremlin, sans qu'a ce jour la justice russe n'ait reussi a identifier un quelconque commenditaire.

This book brings you an in-depth look at the state of the military in both Russia and Ukraine, as well as the history, political circumstances and events leading to the annexation of Crimea. Graphic and often refreshingly candid, the book traces Crimea's political history from the fifteenth century to Russia's annexation of Crimea, offering a close examination of the military reform efforts of both Russia and Ukraine. It presents frank and even-handed judgments concerning the antecedents to Russian intervention in Crimea, the military and political mechanisms of the intervention itself, and the nature of and grounds for the subsequent Russian annexation. Contributors to the book examine the challenges on the road ahead for Ukraine and its military, including the specter of a full-blown Russian military invasion.

Aggression against Ukraine in 2014 marks a stunning shift. Ever since 1945 it had been understood that the borders of States must not be the object of forcible change by other States. Now, however, Russia has revived long-buried historical claims--and prosecutes them by dint of arms. The annexation of Crimea in March 2014 and the subsequent armed incursions in eastern Ukraine under color of separatist movements in Donetsk and Luhansk challenge not just one State's territorial integrity. These acts jeopardize the general settlement on which international law for almost three generations has rested. This is the settlement which enabled human rights and modern institutions of international law to flourish. Russia's domestic rejection of human rights and its new geopolitics of territorial seizure in this light should be seen not in isolation but as connected developments--and as a challenge to international law and global public order at large.

In this timely study, the author investigates the multitude of techniques how social media can be used to advance an aggressive foreign policy, as exemplified by the Russian Federation's operation to annex Crimea in 2014. Drawing on a wide range of sources, the author traces the implementation of a series of Russian measures to create channels and organisations manipulating public opinion in the Ukrainian segment of the internet and on platforms such as Facebook, Vkontakte, Odnoklassniki, LiveJournal, and Twitter. Addressing the pertinent question of how much the operation to annex Crimea was either improvised or planned, he draws attention to Russia's ad-hoc actions in the sphere of social media in 2014. Based on an in-depth analysis of the methods of Russia's influence operations, the book proposes a number of counterstrategies to prevent such 'active measures'. These propositions can serve to improve Ukraine's national information policy as well as help to develop adequate security concepts of other states.
