Abstract

The paper was carried out with the purpose of analyzing the foreign policy measures adopted by Russia in 2014-2015, which resulted in the invasion of the Federation to Crimea. Our starting point is taking the perspective of the Hermann Model, with the focus question: facing the invasion of Crimea and sovereignty of the country, in which extent has Russia’s foreign policy actions been influenced by changes in government in Ukraine? Considering this purpose, we start with a brief historical context of the Ukrainian crisis, the three changes of government in short term and application of the Hermann´s model of Hermann, contextualized with the understanding of hybrid war, since the strategies of war of the Russian government in the Crimea were conventional and non-conventional. As synthesis of the realized research, we produce a table to demonstrate the application of the Hermann Model in the changes of the Ukrainian governments and the types of war observed.
