Previous research on the ongoing armed conflict in Eastern Ukraine has largely provided structural explanations for the outbreak of violence in Donbas. In contrast to previous studies, this article takes an interpretive approach and investigates how the Ukrainian political leadership makes sense of the events in Donbas by drawing an analogy between the Donbas War and World War II. Such an approach sheds light on the Ukrainian ruling elites’ standpoint on the Donbas conflict and contributes to the scholarly literature on conflict resolution in the region
