The Crimean crisis is an ongoing dispute resulting from an international crisis in 2014 involving Russia and Ukraine over the control of the Crimean Peninsula, which culminated in its annexation by Russia. The crisis is part of the wider 2014 Russian military intervention in Ukraine which also includes the Donbass region of Ukraine. The current international status of Crimea and Sevastopol as federal subjects of the Russian Federation is only explicitly recognized by five UN member states, other than Russia. All other countries recognize Crimea as part of Ukraine.
