This thesis focuses on studying the issue in several aspects, starting from the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991 and the independence of Ukraine as a state, and its emergence as a buffer field that contributes to preventing the escalation of tension within its region, leading to the international and regional changes that Ukraine witnessed after the year 2014, which led to undermining the Ukrainian buffering role between the Russian Federation, on the one hand, and NATO and the European Union on the other hand. The importance of the study stemmed from a clarification and consistent analysis of the nature international and regional variables after 2014 and their impact on Ukraine\u2019s status as a buffer state. The 2014 crisis, the annexation of the Crimean Peninsula, and the events that followed, which led to the Russian-Ukrainian war, caused the rift and collapse of the Ukrainian buffer zone strategy separating Russia and NATO. The study also focuses on determining international and regional positions on Ukraine as a buffer state. The study showed the clash of Western will with the Russian desire to preserve Ukraine as a buffer and neutral state between them, through an attempt to include it in the Euro-Atlantic system with the aim of containing Russia and preventing it from expanding into its traditional sphere of influence.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: 'Open Sans'; font-size: 20px;\">At the end of the viva, the researcher was awarded a master\u2019s degree with a grade of \u201cvery good.\u201d Wishing all college students good luck and success.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2461 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/en.copolicy.uobaghdad.edu.iq\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/95\/2024\/07\/451216373_488140003868601_2044488734723052136_n.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/en.copolicy.uobaghdad.edu.iq\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/95\/2024\/07\/451216373_488140003868601_2044488734723052136_n.jpg 750w, https:\/\/en.copolicy.uobaghdad.edu.iq\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/95\/2024\/07\/451216373_488140003868601_2044488734723052136_n-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/en.copolicy.uobaghdad.edu.iq\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/95\/2024\/07\/451216373_488140003868601_2044488734723052136_n-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2459 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/en.copolicy.uobaghdad.edu.iq\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/95\/2024\/07\/449835176_488140007201934_5854063161170507359_n.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/en.copolicy.uobaghdad.edu.iq\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/95\/2024\/07\/449835176_488140007201934_5854063161170507359_n.jpg 750w, https:\/\/en.copolicy.uobaghdad.edu.iq\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/95\/2024\/07\/449835176_488140007201934_5854063161170507359_n-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/en.copolicy.uobaghdad.edu.iq\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/95\/2024\/07\/449835176_488140007201934_5854063161170507359_n-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2460 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/en.copolicy.uobaghdad.edu.iq\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/95\/2024\/07\/451068958_488140467201888_4269477847633854754_n.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"655\" srcset=\"https:\/\/en.copolicy.uobaghdad.edu.iq\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/95\/2024\/07\/451068958_488140467201888_4269477847633854754_n.jpg 750w, https:\/\/en.copolicy.uobaghdad.edu.iq\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/95\/2024\/07\/451068958_488140467201888_4269477847633854754_n-300x262.jpg 300w, https:\/\/en.copolicy.uobaghdad.edu.iq\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/95\/2024\/07\/451068958_488140467201888_4269477847633854754_n-600x524.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The College of Political Science at the University of Baghdad discussed the master\u2019s thesis entitled \u201cThe Buffer State and its &#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":23,"featured_media":2461,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[11,12],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2458","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-archives","category-graduate-studies-discussions"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.8 -
