Sažetak

The war in Ukraine is characterized by personal decision-making processes: President Putin who was born and raised in the Soviet-Union while witnessing its collapse, hence his prism is of reviving his country's status versus the west. President Zelensky of Ukraine is an actor who played the "role of his life" on a TV series, only to be elected genuinely for this position. The war catapulted his status as he visited his troops in the front waring uniform. Some key characteristics of the war are media (disinformation) and Cyber warfare (aimed at security, economic and national infrastructure). The solution for this catastrophic calamity, should not be based solely on imposing economic sanctions on Russia, but through using the services of an effective mediator as the Israeli PM Naftali Bennett, who visited Russia on March 6, 2022. His initiative can assist arriving at a common denominator of preserving the safety of Ukraine through imposing an immediate ceasefire on the one hand, while acknowledging Russia's red lines of not allowing Ukraine to be aligned with the west, on the other. Meanwhile, until the war will be halted, it is an imperative to define a humanitarian governorate under western control which will serve as a safe haven for the refugees.
