Ukraine's Parliament declared independence from the Soviet Union on Aug. 24, 1991, ending centuries of Russian domination and hastening the USSR's collapse. For over a decade, Ukraine has defended that independence against Russian aggression, invaded in 2014 and 2022. German officials now warn Russia could attack a NATO country by 2029. NATO nations must urgently boost military support, especially air-defense systems, to help Ukraine prevail and avert a wider war.Ukraine’s Parliament declared independence from the Soviet Union on Aug. 24, 1991, ending centuries of Russian domination and hastening the USSR’s collapse.

Thirty-five years after declaring independence, Ukraine remains at war for that same right. The country has forged a stronger civic identity, embraced Europe and hardened its resolve, even as war has cost it population, lives and economic stability. Ukraine has shifted from a space others act upon to a nation shaping European security. Its next challenge: converting wartime resilience into durable institutions, EU-ready reforms and a diaspora-linked recovery that secures independence for good.Thirty-five years after declaring independence, Ukraine remains at war for that same right.

For centuries, Russia sought to subsume Ukrainian identity into its own imperial narrative. Since 1991, Ukraine has steadily reclaimed its cultural voice. Russia’s full-scale war accelerated that process, demonstrating that culture is not decoration but a pillar of national security, sovereignty, and international agency.
