Abstract

The war launched by the Russian Federation against Ukraine marks a stage in contemporary history that led and continues to lead to changes on several levels, economic, social, political and even cultural. This crisis creates challenges for the international community, among which we highlight supply chain disruptions, market volatility, resource insecurity, human migration and significant geopolitical changes. In this research, is considered to identify, observe and analyze the perspectives of the youth of Ukraine in the current situation caused by the war. For the present study, I interviewed a group of students from Ukraine, who participated in an Erasmus+ project carried out in Romania in the municipality of Tulcea at the end of October 2022. Unfortunately, I was limited by some aspects during the conduct of these interviews, such as the fact that all the interview participants were female, which was caused by the martial law established in the neighboring country, which prohibits men over the age of 18 from leaving the territory of Ukraine. Because of this aspect, only young women between the ages of 17 and 30 took part in the interview. The interviewees are students at the National University of Uzhhorod. The interviews were conducted both in English and in Ukrainian, being a connoisseur of the Ukrainian language, so the information was transmitted in a much clearer way, many of the students not knowing English very well. The results of the study were summarized and presented in the article in a descriptive form.
