In September 2021, the conflict in Ukraine, particularly in the Donbass region, was ongoing but there was no clear winner in the conflict. The Ukrainian government and pro-Russian separatists had been engaged in a low-intensity conflict since 2014, with occasional flare-ups of violence. The situation remains complex and volatile, with both sides making gains and suffering losses at different times. It is important to note that wars have devastating consequences on people's lives and the economy of a country, and it is always desirable to seek peaceful solutions to conflicts.
