The Russia-Ukraine Conflict: the Us’ Strategic Goals in Reshaping the Power Structure in Europe
Get PDFThe Russia-Ukraine conflict beginning February 24, 2022 strongly impacted the power structure in Europe as the geopolitical crisis reshaped relations between the US, EU and Russia. This paper explores how the US reshaped Europe’s power balance by analyzing three strategic goals. First, establishing Russia as a permanent security threat to European countries’ structure by rejecting Russia’s NATO membership and promoting NATO’s eastward expansion despite promising no expansion post-Cold War. This helped the US strengthen dominance over the EU which needed NATO protection from Russia. Second, prompting the EU to reduce dependence on Russia’s gas and become the EU’s largest energy provider after Russia weaponized energy. This allowed the US to replace Russia’s role in Europe’s energy security. Third, containing President Putin’s ambitions to restore Russia’s superpower status through sanctions weakening its economy and military aid to Ukraine. Research methodology included qualitative analysis of secondary sources like government data and scholarly articles. Key findings were that the US succeeded in its goals, using the conflict to weaken Russia and increase influence over the EU. However, consequences included undermining international rules restraining major powers and destabilizing Europe’s long-term security architecture established post-WWII. Overall, the paper demonstrates how major powers utilize conflicts to reshape regional power dynamics aligned with their interests, despite ensuing instability
