Resumo

This article analyzes Russia’s 2022 full-scale invasion of Ukraine, seeking to explain the motivations behind Russia’s decision to carry out this action. With a perspective that draws attention to great powers’ perceptions about the connections between other states’ domestic politics and the global balance of power, the paper argues that Russia, with the 2022 invasion, sought to reverse trends in state-society relations in Ukraine which influenced both foreign and domestic policies in a direction that Moscow considered detrimental to its interests regarding Ukraine.
