On February 24, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced the start of a special military operation in the Donbass. Thus, according to him, Moscow responded to requests for military assistance from the heads of the Lugansk People's Republic and the DPR. After that, many Western countries reacted to this with harsh sanctions against Russian individuals and legal entities. In addition, several dozen Western companies have left the Russian market.
