The crisis evolved into the invasion and annexation ofCrimea by Russia, ongoing conflicts between legal Ukrainian government troopsand Russian-supported local separatists in eastern Ukraine. This articleanalyzes the crisis within the theory of proxy warfare, which emerged duringthe Cold War as the most prevalent method of competition between the US and theformer Soviet Union. The paper argues that the Ukrainian crisis presents anexample of proxy warfare between the West and Russia for global hegemony, andthat its result will affect not just Eurasia but security world-wide.

Kriz Kırım’ın Rusya tarafından işgali ve ilhakı ile UkraynaHükümeti birlikleri ile Rusya tarafından desteklenen ayrılıkçı yerel halkarasında Ukrayna’nın doğusunda halen devam eden çatışmaya dönüşmüştür. Makale,krizi Soğuk Savaş döneminde ABD ile eski Sovyetler Birliği arasındaki rekabetteçok yaygın bir şekilde başvurulan yöntem olan vekâlet savaşları teorisiçerçevesinde analiz etmektedir.
