Vorwort
Volodymyr Zelensky won the Ukrainian presidential elections with a clear majority. The political newcomer placed Ukraine’s unity and the social development in the centre of his campaign. The new elected president follows a pragmatic approach when it comes to the conflict over Crimea and the Donbas. First reactions from Russia, however, do not indicate a decline in political tension. The International Crisis and Conflict Management is still required to prevent further escalation and provide humanitarian aid for the population affected.
